ALT An Air Quality Action Day has been declared by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection for Thursday, March 16 for the Liberty-Clairton area. Light southwest winds and a strong inversion through the mid-morning hours will contribute to fine particle (PM2.5) pollution in the code ORANGE range today in the Mon Valley. The air quality will improve this afternoon as the inversion breaks and dispersion increases. The ACHD’s Air Quality Program is monitoring the situation and will provide further updates, if necessary. At this time, the Air Quality Program does not believe there will be a need to declare a Mon Valley Episode Pollution watch or warning.
