The USEPA has identified the following six criteria air pollutants and has set NAAQS for them: Carbon Monoxide (CO), Lead (Pb), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO), 8-Hour Ozone (O), Particulate Matter (PM or PM), 23102.5 and Sulfur Dioxide (SO). 2 Areas found to be in violation of one or more NAAQS of these pollutants are classified as “nonattainment areas”. States with nonattainment areas must develop a State Implementation Plan (SIP) demonstrating how the areas will be brought back into attainment of the NAAQS within designated timeframes.
