A county or related group of counties where air pollution levels persistently exceed the national ambient air quality standards is called a nonattainment area. There are currently no nonattainment areas for particle pollution in Wisconsin. Designations are based on the values recorded by 20 discrete monitors as noted above. The 11 continuous monitors are not used for nonattainment area designations.
