EPA’s air quality monitoring station in Morwell south is currently malfunctioning and not showing a reading for PM 2.5.
The station is showing accurate readings for all other data on the EPA website.
EPA is working to rectify the situation as quickly as possible and hope to have the PM 2.5 readings back up as soon as possible.
EPA would also like to advise the community that there are planned burns scheduled north of Morwell that may impact on air quality readings for the rest of the weekend.
EPA will advise the community of any other spikes in data.
