Purpose of the Study
Characterization of ozone and its precursors
Develop a procedure for forecasting high ozone days

Benefits of the Study
Ozone forecasts for the public to reduce or avoid exposure to ozone
Inform the public about voluntary actions that reduce emissions

Project Objectives
Review historical data for the following:
Study when and where high ozone concentrations occur
Determine what weather conditions in the valley result in high ozone concentrations
Use existing ozone data to identify locations below and above the 1-hour and 8-hour National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS)
