Dust Levels in Yerevan’s Air Exceeded the Maximum Permissible Limit by 2.0 Times in January

Yerevan Municipality informs that, according to data obtained from 161 air monitoring stations installed at construction sites across the capital in January 2025, the Air Quality Index (AQI) averaged 149 for PM2.5 and 104 for PM10. These values fall within the "unhealthy for sensitive groups" (100-150) range.

These monitoring devices are specifically installed at construction sites and do not provide data on background air pollution levels. However, the total volume of undifferentiated dust in Yerevan's air exceeded the maximum permissible limit by up to 2.0 times during January.
