The Maine Department of Environmental Protection's Bureau of Air
Quality has issued an Air Quality Alert for particle pollution from
midnight tonight to midnight EDT Sunday night.

Particle pollution levels are expected to rise into the Unhealthy for
Sensitive Groups range periodically during the weekend. People are
advised to follow the health message if visibility is poor or they
can smell smoke.

The Maine Department of Environmental Protection recommends that
individuals consider limiting strenuous outdoor physical activity to
reduce the risk of adverse health effects. People who may be
especially sensitive to the effects of elevated levels of pollutants
include the very young, the elderly, those with pre-existing
respiratory problems such as asthma, those with heart disease and
anyone who is working hard outdoors. It is okay to be active
outdoors. But if you experience symptoms such as shortness of
breath, coughing, throat irritation or an uncomfortable sensation in
your chest please consider limiting the intensity and duration of
your outdoor activities.

A toll free air quality hotline has been established so Maine
residents can stay informed on the air quality situations. The toll
free number is: 1-800-223-1196.
