| 2001 | Fine PM (0-2.5µm) | Coarse PM (2.5-10µm) | PM10 (0-10µm) | | Average | 7.69 | 11.32 | 18.39 | | Maximum | 22.08 | 186.32 | 203.50 |
Here are a few notes on the above data: - On September 25th a dust storm came through the region. The 203.5 µg/m3 is comparable to the rest of the monitors in Spokane County.
- The notation "-" is shown on four coarse particulate values. The coarse particulate loading on these days was so low that we were seeing negative numbers because of the limits in the sampling method.
- June 10, 2002 filter exchange failure.
- August 1, 2002 start daily sampling during grass field burning season.
- August 2, 2002 key pad failure.
- August 8, 2002 move to new monitoring location
- September 1 - 3, 2002 filter exchange failure.
- September 29, 2002 last of daily samples, returning to 1 in 3 schedule.
- November 5, 2004 changed to new sampling method using R&P mini-partisol. Will only sample for PM 2.5.
- February 27, 2005 started using AIRmetrics minivol portable sampler to collect PM10
