While we all wish that air quality was always like this ⬆ and a protocol for go/no-go decisions for youth soccer practices and competitions was not necessary…

What’s The Problem?
9
Current wildfire and smoke events demonstrate the need for better decision-making protocols for youth soccer related to air quality because:
• Coaches and league officials aren’t air quality scientists• Organizations are unsure ‒WHAT information to use? ‒HOW to make decisions?‒WHO should make them?
• Organizations struggle with the content and timeliness of messaging to members and staff (parents, coaches, players)

Air Quality & HealthFundamentals
![Page 11: Air Quality Resources for Youth Sports Decision Making Quality... · Air Quality Resources for Youth Soccer Decisions. Educational Webinar for NorCal Premier Members.

Air Pollution 101
• Major components‒ Ozone (O3) ‒ Particulate Matter (PM1, PM2.5, PM10)‒ NO2
• Trends – greatly improved by National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) from 2000 to present
• Locations and magnitudes of sources are well understood
• Formation, transport, and location of occurrences are well understood
11
• Major components‒ Smoke is PM-dominated‒ Elevated NO2
‒ “Other” (VOCs, etc.)Reference: U.S. EPA Fire & Smoke Page
‒ Ozone is secondary
• Source locations and strengths are highly variable (fires)
• Fire creates its own weather
• Fires occur during exceptional meteorological events (strong winds, dry lightning, etc.)
Exceptional Event Regional and Local
Routine Regional

Smoke composition depends on:
• What is burning (grass, brush, trees, buildings)
• How efficiently the fuel burns
12
What Exactly is in Wildfire Smoke?
Carbon dioxideParticulate matterCarbon monoxideHydrocarbons
Nitrogen oxides
Organic chemicals
Trace minerals
Water vapor
• Wind and weather conditions
• How old the smoke is (is it fresh or “aged”)
![Page 13: Air Quality Resources for Youth Sports Decision Making Quality... · Air Quality Resources for Youth Soccer Decisions. Educational Webinar for NorCal Premier Members. For NorCal Premier.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070111/604ec97801db9c1cba0540c7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Wildfire Smoke – Wood Ash
• Solid combustion product: carbonates, hydroxides, and various mineral and metal oxides; composition varies widely, driven by nature of fire and fuel.
• Studies have measured average size of ash particles at 230 μm ( > PM10), so it is NOT measured by the PM sensor network.
• Composition generally such that it’s highly basic (PH < 7) and caustic when dissolved in water.
Large Particles
Even though ash does not reach into lungs, ash particles can irritate the skin, eyes, and throat

Particulate Matter
• A complex mixture of solid and liquid particles
• Composed of many different compounds
• Both emitted directly (primary) and formed in the atmosphere (secondary)
• Sizes vary tremendously• Forms in many ways

Fine Particulate Matter – PM2.5
Health concerns:• Can aggravate lung diseases such
as asthma and bronchitis• Can increase susceptibility to
respiratory infections• Can aggravate heart diseases• Is associated with cardiac
arrhythmias and heart attacks

Putting Data into Context
• Existing air quality standards and tools to interpret air quality – e.g., the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and the Air Quality Index (AQI) – are based on data of 1-, 8-, or 24-hour averaging periods with underlying health studies and evidence.
• Actual health effects of very short-term elevated levels of most pollutants (e.g., 1-minute PM2.5) are not well understood.

• AQI provides an indicator of the quality of the air and its health effects
• AQI color is key for communication
• 101 corresponds to the level that violates the federal health standard

How Do We Measure PM?• Historically, only government-
sponsored locations with expensive instruments (regulatory monitors) were available to measure air quality
• Increasingly, small non-government operated low-cost sensors deployed by private citizens and organizations measure and distribute PM data
Regulatory Monitors
Low-Cost Sensors

Summary of Air Quality Sensors• Regulatory Monitors‒ VERY accurate‒ Used for legal decisions‒ Operated by professionals at an air quality agency:
maintained, checked, and quality controlled‒ Siting conforms to EPA requirements and standards‒ Sparsely deployed (big gaps between)
• Low-Cost Sensors ‒ Deployed by many individuals, widely distributed, &
frequent‒ Measurements not as precise or accurate‒ Not quality controlled and maintained to any
standard21

Weather and Mixing
24Source: nasa.gov
Source: Victoria News, www.vicnews.com
Processes that influence air quality:• Sunlight causes surface heating, which
causes buoyant air to rise.‒ Creates vertical mixing ‒ Weakens temperature inversions that prevent
vertical mixing
• Macro-, micro-, and mesoscale winds drive horizontal dispersion and vertical mixing‒ Both types of mixing act as dilution processes
• Transport of pollutants in 3-dimensions• Clouds and precipitation

Understanding PurpleAir
• A network of small, individually (privately) purchased, deployed, and operated consumer-grade particulate sensors
• Uses light scattering to determine PM concentrations. Different types of particles scatter light differently.
• Connected to a data system that collects and then displays the data on the purpleair.com website.

Developing Decision-Making Protocols
![Page 40: Air Quality Resources for Youth Sports Decision Making Quality... · Air Quality Resources for Youth Soccer Decisions. Educational Webinar for NorCal Premier Members. For NorCal Premier.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070111/604ec97801db9c1cba0540c7/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Developing a Decision-Making ProtocolMake some fundamental decisions up front
Conservative
• Always protect sensitive groups!
• Prioritize the known over maximizing play time
Maximize Play
• Make calls that could be perceived as risky
• More effort to get right
Forecast
• Forecasts cover a wide area, are reliable & conservative
• Using forecasts in rapidly changing conditions can result in unnecessary cancellations
Near Real-time
• Real-time decisions are difficult to make, communicate, and act on
• Is your organization staffed and are your staff trained?
Be ConsistentUse same protocol each day Choose reliable data sources
Prioritization Timing & Data Sources
44
![Page 41: Air Quality Resources for Youth Sports Decision Making Quality... · Air Quality Resources for Youth Soccer Decisions. Educational Webinar for NorCal Premier Members. For NorCal Premier.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070111/604ec97801db9c1cba0540c7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Developing a Communications Protocol
• Be consistent‒ Message consistently, use same messaging each day
• Communicate proactively and keep sensitive groups in mind with special highlighted messaging to them‒ An AQI of 65 does not mean the same thing to all members!
• Consider that not all members use all communications tools‒ Many members may not have email access
• Ensure that your communications account for timing of recipients’ actions (e.g. transporting players to activities)
45

Final Takeaways• WHAT information to use? ‒ Use vetted, reliable data sources: EPA AirNow & local agency‒ Use PurpleAir with caveats of use (correction, reliability)
• HOW to make decisions?‒ Make decisions either ahead (conservatively, forecast-based) or make
decisions in more real time only if your protocols and staff allow reliable decisions and communications
• WHO should make them?‒ Make sure staff who make this call are trained and know the WHAT and
HOW above
