Noida: With a few months winter, Uttar Pradesh (UPPCB) pollution control officials have begun to study the source of pollutants and prepare plans to ensure that local sources remain controlled during the upcoming winter months.
With the level of pollution which remains in the ‘moderate’ category to ‘good’ in the past month, officials said that even with all the activities returned to their ordinary and unliced ​​situation, air quality in Noida and Greater Noida remained within the limit.
Great pollutants have become PM10, followed by PM 2.5 and NO2 on a few days.
In the past week, the air quality index (AQI) in both Noida and Greater Noida has been less than 100 on almost every day.
On September 6, Aqi was 119 years old in Noida and 122 in Greater Noida, only slightly higher than 100.
Meanwhile, on September 4, AQI was aged 50 (good) in Greater Noida and 52 (satisfying) in Noida.
Likewise, on September 1, both cities have ‘good’ air with AQI in 42 in Noida and 32 in Greater Noida.
Praveen Kumar, Regional Officer of the UPPCB, said, “All human activities such as transportation and construction are underway.
The level of pollution is still low since early August.
It only shows that the norm is being followed.
We are studying the source and will only try to ensure that this activity continues Without a violation.
“He added that the district only had one pollutant industry and almost no cases of burning stumps were reported locally.
So, the main source of air pollution is usually construction and transportation.
External bodies have also been employed to study the right sources and areas that can become a pollution hotspot.
“We cannot control climate change and external pollution from other districts, which are the main causes of poor air quality during the winter.
Lower temperatures traps pollutants in the atmosphere.
However, our focus is to control local activities,” Kumar said.
He added that this district has several construction projects that occur and some sectors have more sustainable jobs than others.
They may be asked to work in phases and follow all NGT guidelines such as ordinary water sprinkles.
Also a solid area where vehicles stop for longer duration are recorded so that traffic management measures can be taken, Kumar added.
