UTM Coordinates = Probe Location Air Monitoring Station, West Valley City, Utah

UTM Coordinates = Probe Location is an air monitoring station located at 3275 W 3100 S, West Valley City, Utah, United States. The station is operational and contributes to the national air quality monitoring network, providing data on ambient air pollutants in the Salt Lake County region. The station operates under the regulatory framework of the US EPA Air Quality System (AQS), which sets standards for criteria pollutants such as ozone, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and lead. As part of this network, the station likely measures a subset of these pollutants to assess compliance with National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The reporting agency for this station is Eastern Research Group, which manages data collection and quality assurance. Located in West Valley City, a suburb of Salt Lake City, the station monitors air quality in an area influenced by urban emissions, industrial activity, and geographic factors such as mountain inversions. The data collected supports public health advisories and regulatory decisions, contributing to the broader goal of protecting air quality in the region.

The station is situated in the Salt Lake Valley, where topography and weather patterns can lead to temperature inversions that trap pollutants near the surface. This makes continuous air monitoring critical for understanding local air quality dynamics. The station's siting is representative of urban exposure, capturing emissions from transportation, industry, and residential sources. Parameter coverage typically includes criteria pollutants, with potential for additional speciation depending on network objectives.
