Activated the preventive level 1 of the pollution protocol in La Aljorra by exceeding the daily values ​​of particles (19/09/2018)

The General Directorate of Environment and Mar Menor of the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia has informed the City of Cartagena of the activation of level 1 of the "Framework Protocol for pollution" in La Aljorra, by exceeding the daily limit value PM10 particles during the day of yesterday Tuesday, September 18.

Specifically, the average daily concentration of PM10 particles recorded during that day was 54 micrograms (one gram divided by one million) per cubic meter, compared to 50 micrograms per cubic meter established as a daily limit value that does not it can be exceeded more than 35 times per year, in the RD 10212011 on the improvement of air quality.

The most probable cause of this overcoming, according to the General Directorate of Environment and Mar Menor, is the intrusion of Saharan dust that was planned and that has been confirmed with the updated data.

The prediction for tomorrow, September 20, is that the process of intrusion of Saharan dust will persist.

The recommended measures, during the period that the preventive level remains active, are the following:

Preferably use public transport, avoiding as much as possible the use of private vehicles when it is not strictly necessary, especially when traveling within this population.

Do not burn stubble or agricultural margins.

Avoid the realization of earth movements, cultivation of cultivated areas and other practices that contribute to the generation of dust clouds while the episode persists, especially when the direction of the wind favors the drag of the same towards La Aljorra and when they are taking out several of these practices simultaneously in their immediate environment.

Try to avoid exposure to the ambient air of especially sensitive people, such as children, the elderly and the sick.
