...AIR QUALITY ALERT IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 PM EDT THIS EVENING...

The Maine Department of Environmental Protection`s Bureau of Air
Quality has issued an Air Quality Alert for particle pollution until
11 PM EDT this evening.

Particle pollution levels are expected to rise into the Unhealthy for
Sensitive Groups range on Tuesday. Values are already in the USG
range this morning. Smoke is currently expected to not move out of
Maine until Thursday, though this denser portion of the plume should
move out on Wednesday. In addition, particle pollution levels are
expected to be moderate for the remainder of the state. It is
important to remember that even in areas with moderate levels of
ozone and particle pollution the health impacts will be compounded by
the effects of heat and humidity. The Maine Department of
Environmental Protection recommends that individuals consider
limiting strenuous outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of
adverse health effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the
effects of elevated levels of pollutants include the very young, the
elderly, those with pre-existing respiratory problems such as
asthma, those with heart disease and anyone who is working hard
outdoors. But if you experience symptoms such as shortness of breath,
coughing, throat irritation or an uncomfortable sensation in your
chest please consider limiting the intensity and duration of your
outdoor activities.

A toll free air quality hotline has been established so Maine
residents can stay informed on the air quality situations. The toll
free number is: 1-800-223-1196.

Additionally the Maine Department of Environmental Protection has
the air quality forecast available on the web at
www.maine.gov/dep/air/aqforecast.

...AIR QUALITY ALERT IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM THIS MORNING TO MIDNIGHT

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation at
Albany NY has issued an Air Quality Health Advisory for Fine
Particulates for Clinton, Essex, Franklin, and St Lawrence Counties
from 10 AM Tuesday to midnight EDT Tuesday night.

Air quality levels in outdoor air are predicted to be greater than
an air quality index value of 151 for Fine Particulates. The air
quality index, or AQI, was created as an easy way to correlate
levels of different pollutants to one scale. The higher the AQI
value, the greater the health concern.

When pollution levels are elevated, the New York State Department of
Health recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous
outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health
effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of
elevated levels of pollutants include the very young and those with
pre existing respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease.
Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal
physician.

Lamoille, Orange, Orleans, and Washington Counties until midnight

The air quality index, or AQI, is expected to approach or exceed the
Code None or 151 due to Fine Particulates.

When pollution levels are in the 151, the Vermont Department of
Health recommends that these individuals consider limiting strenuous
outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health
effects.

People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of elevated
levels of pollutants include the very young, older adults, and those
with preexisting respiratory problems such as asthma or heart
disease and those working outside.

Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal
physician.

People with asthma should follow their asthma action plans and keep
quick relief medicine handy.

If you have heart disease: symptoms such as palpitations, shortness
of breath, or unusual fatigue may indicate a serious problem. If you
have any of these, contact your healthcare provider.

An Air Quality Action Day means that particulate concentrations
within the region may approach or exceed unhealthy standards.
