The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) has declared that tomorrow Thursday, July 16th is an Air Quality Action Day in our region for Ozone and Particulate Matter..
Ozone
Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups
Sensitive groups (people with respiratory diseases, older adults, and children) should reduce prolonged outdoor exertion, and continue checking air quality today to determine when it is best to be active outdoors.
Particulate Matter (PM 2.5)
Unhealthy
Fine particulate matter settles deep into the lungs and cannot be easily exhaled.
If able, reduce prolonged outdoor exertion, and continue checking air quality this week to determine when it is best to be active outdoors.
Do your part to help clean the air by taking action!
- Bike, walk, carpool, or take the bus
- Perform regular vehicle maintenance

- Refuel your car in the evening
