What Is the Air Quality Flag Program?
The Flag Program uses flags to notify people of their outdoor air quality conditions.
What is the Air Quality Index?
The Air Quality Index is a guide for reporting daily air quality. It uses colors and numbers to show how clean or polluted the air is. EPA uses the Air Quality Index to report ground-level ozone and particle pollution. For each pollutant, EPA has established national standards to protect people’s health.
