Air quality is important for all Utahns. And our pets, too! We all breathe the same air to live. So let’s do our best to keep it clean.
The mission of the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is safeguarding and improving Utah’s air, land and water through balanced regulation, including the data we use at UCAIR. Division of Air Quality (DAQ) is responsible for providing all the air quality data for the state of Utah. Your interest and involvement can make a difference.
The forecast indicates the highest pollution level of the day. During the winter, particulate matter (i.e., PM 2.5) pollution levels build up until a storm or weather system moves the air out of the valley.
Our current air quality index (AQI) provides information on the quality of air that you are breathing and it’s impact on your health.
