Title: ●Extension of Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Stations Compliance Deadline 
Abstract:

Significant revisions to the PAMS requirements were made as part of the 2015 Ozone NAAQS review. The revised PAMS requirements significantly reduced the number of PAMS sites (from 75 to 43) while improving spatial coverage. Currently, states are required to start making PAMS measurements by the compliance deadline of June 1, 2019. The EPA plans to extend the compliance date for the required Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Stations (PAMS) by two years, from June 1, 2019 to June 1, 2021, to allow states more time to purchase and become proficient with the necessary equipment.
