Air Quality 'Action Days'
"Red" and "blue" air quality advisories will soon be a thing of the past.  The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment will now forecast air quality "Action Days."  When either pollutant conditions and/or visibility are expected to exceed standards, the department will call for an "Action Day," just as it does during the summer for ground-level ozone. During the wintertime season, Action Days will activate mandatory residential burning restrictions that limit burning to approved devices only. Action Days also encourage voluntary action to limit driving. Impaired visibility will be the reason for most Action Days during the wintertime season.  Click here for more information.
