32. industrial stations - evaluate the industrial activities influence on air quality -representative of air quality in a surrounding area with a radius of 100m-1km; - the pollutants measured are sulphur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, ozone, organic volatile compounds, and particulate matter (PM10 and PM 2,5) and meteorological parameters (wind direction and speed, pressure, temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, precipitation)

33. urban background stations - evaluate the human settlements influence on air quality - located far away from local emission sources as: traffic, petrol station, etc - located in ventilated areas where cold be measured concentration levels for pollutants mix - representative of air quality in a surrounding area with a radius of 1-5 km; areas recommended for that stations are: commercial areas, open spaces from educational, sports or recreational centres, big pedestrian streets the pollutants measured are sulphur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, ozone, organic volatile compounds, and particulate matter (PM10 and PM 2,5) and meteorological parameters (wind direction and speed, pressure, temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, precipitation)

34. suburban background stations evaluate the human settlements influence on air quality - representative of air quality in a surrounding area with a radius of 1-5 km; - areas recommended for that stations are: to a certain distances from the areas with maximum emissions, in the course of dominant wind associated with ozone forming, on those areas where the population, the crops and the naturals ecosystems located at the external limit of an agglomeration are expose at high concentration of ozon - the pollutants measured are sulphur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, ozone, organic volatile compounds, and particulate matter (PM10 and PM 2,5) and meteorological parameters (wind direction and speed, pressure, temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, precipitation)

35. EMEP stations - monitoring and assess air pollution in long range Tran boundary context - located on areas with low population density, far away from traffic, urban areas or local emissions sources - located on mountain area at medium altitude: Fundata, Semenic si Poiana Stampei; - representative for an area of about 10 000 square kilometres - the pollutants measured are sulphur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, ozone, organic volatile compounds, and particulate matter (PM10 and PM 2,5) and meteorological parameters (wind direction and speed, pressure, temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, precipitation)

Data Quality Objectives – DQO – are defined on the Directives - precision, accuracy and/or correctness, representiveness, data capture, time coverage Having defined the DQOs it is necessary to establish a QA/QC plan The minimum QA/QC plan - Accuracy and precision - Data capture - Time coverage The complete QA/QC plan the best one – the existence of an accredited laboratory(central) ISO 17025 – both – Calibration laboratory + Test laboratory(s) QA/QC procedures necessary part of any Air Quality monitoring system
