  • 2020 Ambient Air Quality Trends Report.Pdf
    july 2020 DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AMBIENT AIR QUALITY TRENDS REPORT 1996-2019 monitoring and assessment branch air quality division department of energy and environment 1200 first street, n.e., fifth floor washington, dc 20002 district of columbia’s ambient air quality trends report 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Air quality in the District of Columbia (District) has improved significantly in the last two decades, meeting the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for all criteria pollutants except for ground-level ozone. Because the District is an urban environment with little industry, air quality issues in the District are primarily due to emissions from vehicles and air pollution transported from other states. This Air Quality Trends Report demonstrates that despite population, employment, and housing increases and other related activities in the District, ambient concentrations of all criteria pollutants and pollution emissions have dropped since the late 1990s. This report serves as an update to the 2014 Air Quality Trends Reporti. Figure 1: The District’s Air Quality in 2019 as a Percent of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) Figure 1 illustrates that the District is meeting the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) National Ambient Air Quality Standards for fine particulate matter, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide. The District is in marginal nonattainment of the standard for ground-level ozone pollution. Improvements in air quality can be attributed to the ongoing work at both the state and national level. The District has adopted several air pollution reduction regulations and has coordinated with neighboring states to help control transported pollution. There is a push for low-emission vehicles across the nation, with several grants and programs currently underway to replace aging fleets and invest in electric vehicle infrastructure.

  • District of Columbia's Ambient Air Quality TRENDS REPORT
    District of Columbia’s Ambient Air Quality TRENDS REPORT October 2014 Prepared by: Monitoring and Assessment Branch Air Quality Division District Department of the Environment 1200 First Street, N.E., Fifth Floor Washington, DC 20002 District of Columbia Ambient Air Quality Trends Report 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The District of Columbia (District) is an urban environment with little industry. Air quality issues in the District are primarily due to emissions from vehicles and air pollution transported from other states. This Air Quality Trends Report demonstrates that despite population increase and other related activities in the District, ambient concentrations of all criteria pollutants and pollution emissions have dropped during the assessment period. This report will be updated periodically to include new data. The following conclusions can be made to date: O3 – The District and the metropolitan area are in nonattainment of ground-level ozone (O3) standards, and the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) are expected to become even more stringent in the near future. Ozone continues to be the biggest air pollution challenge the region faces. Controlling emissions from mobile sources and getting cooperation from upwind states and regions to address transported pollution are necessary to improve public health. PM2.5 – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is redesignating the region as an attainment area for the 1997 annual standard. The monitored air quality District of Columbia Ambient Air Quality Trends Report 2014 levels in the recent several years were below the standards. Since the area previously was in nonattainment, demonstrations of continued maintenance with the standard are required for the next 20 years.
