Benzene and carbon monoxide
This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum
6. The data quality objectives set out in the following table, for allowed uncertainty of assessment methods, of minimum time coverage and of data capture of measurement are provided to guide quality assurance programmes—
| Benzene | Carbon monoxide | |
|---|---|---|
| Fixed measurements | ||
| Uncertainty | 25% | 15% |
| Minimum data capture | 90% | 90% |
| Minimum time coverage | 35% urban background and traffic sites (distributed over the year to be representative of various conditions for climate and traffic); 90% industrial sites | |
| Indicative measurements | ||
| Uncertainty | 30% | 25% |
| Minimum data capture | 90% | 90% |
| Minimum time coverage | 14% (one day’s measurement a week at random, evenly distributed over the year, or eight weeks evenly distributed over the year) | 14% (one measurement a week at random, evenly distributed over the year, or eight weeks evenly distributed over the year) |
