Where can I get information on the air quality in my county?

 NYSDEC is responsible for the operation of the ambient air quality monitoring network for the state. This continuous monitoring collects O3 (ozone), SO2, NO, CO, and meteorological data. The program also operates the manual monitoring network. This network monitors for PM10, lead, acid rain, metals, and toxic organic compounds.
