Llinell Amser Newidiadau
Mae’r llinell amser yma yn dangos y fersiynau gwahanol a gymerwyd o EUR-Lex yn ogystal ag unrhyw fersiynau dilynol a grëwyd ar ôl y diwrnod ymadael o ganlyniad i newidiadau a wnaed gan ddeddfwriaeth y Deyrnas Unedig.
Cymerir dyddiadau fersiynau’r UE o ddyddiadau’r dogfennau ar EUR-Lex ac efallai na fyddant yn cyfateb â’r adeg pan ddaeth y newidiadau i rym ar gyfer y ddogfen.
Ar gyfer unrhyw fersiynau a grëwyd ar ôl y diwrnod ymadael o ganlyniad i newidiadau a wnaed gan ddeddfwriaeth y Deyrnas Unedig, bydd y dyddiad yn cyd-fynd â’r dyddiad cynharaf y daeth y newid (e.e. ychwanegiad, diddymiad neu gyfnewidiad) a weithredwyd i rym.

I.Pollutants to be studied at an initial stage, including pollutants governed by existing ambient air quality directivesU.K.
1.Sulphur dioxideU.K.
2.Nitrogen dioxideU.K.
3.Fine particulate matter such as soot (including mw 10)U.K.
4.Suspended particulate matterU.K.
5.LeadU.K.
6.OzoneU.K.
II.Other air pollutantsU.K.

11.ArsenicU.K.
12.NickelU.K.
13.MercuryU.K.
ANNEX IIU.K.FACTORS TO BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT WHEN SETTING LIMIT VALUES AND ALERT THRESHOLDS
When setting the limit value and, as appropriate, alert threshold, the following factors may, by way of example, be taken into account:
degree of exposure of sectors of the population, and in particular sensitive sub-groups,
climatic conditions,
sensitivity of flora and fauna and their habitats,
historic heritage exposed to pollutants,
economic and technical feasibility,
long-range transmission of pollutants, of which secondary pollutants, including ozone.
ANNEX IIIU.K.GUIDELINES FOR SELECTING AIR POLLUTANTS FOR CONSIDERATION
1.Possibility, severity and frequency of effects; with regard to human health and the environment as a whole, the irreversible effects must be of special concern.U.K.
2.Ubiquity and high concentration of the pollutant in the atmosphere.U.K.
3.Environmental transformations or metabolic alterations, as these alterations may lead to the production of chemicals with greater toxicity.U.K.
4.Persistence in the environment, particularly if the pollutant is not biodegradable and can accumulate in humans, the environment or food chains.U.K.
5.Impact of the pollutant:U.K.
size of exposed population, living resources or ecosystems,
existence of particularly sensitive targets in the zone concerned.
6.Risk-assessment methods may also be used.U.K.
The pertinent danger criteria established under Directive 67/548/EEC() and its successive adaptations must be taken into account in the selection of the pollutants.
ANNEX IVU.K.INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE LOCAL, REGIONAL OR NATIONAL PROGRAMMES FOR IMPROVEMENT IN THE AMBIENT AIR QUALITY
Information to be provided under Article 8 (3)U.K.
1.Localization of excess pollutionU.K.
2.General informationU.K.
type of zone (city, industrial or rural area)
estimate of the polluted area (km2) and of the population exposed to the pollution
useful climatic data
relevant data on topography
sufficient information on the type of targets requiring protection in the zone.
3.Responsible authoritiesU.K.
Names and addresses of persons responsible for the development and implementation of improvement plans.
4.Nature and assessment of pollutionU.K.
concentrations observed over previous years (before the implementation of the improvement measures)
concentrations measured since the beginning of the project
techniques used for the assessment.
5.Origin of pollutionU.K.

total quantity of emissions from these sources (tonnes/year)
information on pollution imported from other regions.
6.Analysis of the situationU.K.

details of possible measures for improvement of air quality.
7.Details of those measures or projects for improvement which existed prior to the entry into force of this Directive i.e.U.K.

listing and description of all the measures set out in the project
timetable for implementation
estimate of the improvement of air quality planned and of the expected time required to attain these objectives.
9.Details of the measures or projects planned or being researched for the long term.U.K.
