Wednesday, July 24, 2024. Warm and stagnant weather combined with

CDPHE requests that activities, such as driving non-ZEV vehicles
(i.e., gas or diesel), be reduced to lessen the impacts on air
quality. Additional air pollution in this region may directly
worsen air quality or contribute to precursors which may also
adversely affect air quality. For Colorado air quality conditions,
