(1) Units of measure are micrograms per cubic meter of air (µg/m3).

(2) TSP = total suspended particles.

(3)The level of the annual standard is defined to one decimal place (i.e., 15.0 µg/m3) as determined by rounding.  For example, a 3-year average annual mean of 15.04 µg/m3 would round to 15.0 µg/m3 and, thus, meet the annual standard and a 3-year average of 15.05 µg/m3 would round to 15.1 µg/m3 and, hence, violate the annual standard (40 CFR part 50 Appendix N).

(4)The level of the standard was to be compared to measurements made at sites that represent "community-wide air quality" recording the highest level, or, if specific requirements were satisfied, to average measurements from multiple community-wide air quality monitoring sites ("spatial averaging").

(5) See 69 FR 45592, July 30, 2004.

(6) The level of the 24-hour standard is defined as an integer (zero decimal places) as determined by rounding.  For example, a 3-year average 98th percentile concentration of 35.49 µg/m3 would round to 35 µg/m3 and thus meet the 24-hour standard and a 3-year average of 35.50 µg/m3 would round to 36 and, hence, violate the 24-hour standard (40 CFR part 50 Appendix N).

(7) The EPA tightened the constraints on the spatial averaging criteria by further limiting the conditions under which some areas may average measurements from multiple community-oriented monitors to determine compliance (see 71 FR 61165-61167).

(8) The EPA revoked the annual PM10 NAAQS in 2006.
