increase to dangerous levels. Persons with respiratory illness
should follow their physicians advice for dealing with high levels
of air pollution during periods of stagnant air, state air quality
agencies highly recommend that no outdoor burning occur and that
residential wood burning devices be limited as much as possible.
According to state air quality agencies, prolonged periods of
