what is an Air Action Zone?  The Sheffield Clean Air Partnership team explains An Air Action Zone or Air Quality Management Area is an area that has been defined where one or more of the UK Governments' Air Quality Objectives will not be met. For the Sheffield Clean Air Partnership area the only pollutant (out of the seven specified by the Government as being of importance in terms of ill health effects) that is unlikely to exceed its objective is nitrogen dioxide. Within 12-18 months of legally declaring the AAZ, an Action Plan must be submitted to the UK Government, specifically the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) stating how air pollution levels will be lowered so that the objectives are met.
