| Abstract: The file PM25test.zip contains six files as follows: FIELDSC.WP6 is a description of the field test ; BIRMING.FMT contains the Birmingham test format file; BIRMING.WK1 is a Lotus file containing a spreadsheet of the Birmingham data; DENVER.FMT contains the Denver test format file; DENVER.WK1 is a Lotus file containing a spreadsheet of the Denver data; PHX_EPA1.WK4 is a Lotus spreadsheet containing the Phoenix test data. Multiple sites and several types of ambient monitors were employed in these urban area tests. The test data represents and compares data collected during some or all of the period from November 2, 1996 to January 27, 1997. The data from these studies was used by EPA in preparing revisions to EPA's monitoring requirements for particulate matter (PM) to support revisions to the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for PM.
