To find out the current air quality in Broward County call 954 519-1280.

Broward County is located within the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) designated Southeast Florida Airshed, which consists of Miami-Dade, Palm Beach and Broward counties. The main air pollutant of concern within the airshed is ozone. The air quality in Broward County is classified in the "good range: of the Air Quality Index more than 90% of the year, with motor vehicle emissions as the major source of air pollution. As part of our mission, the Air Quality Program educates Broward County residents on the importance of good air quality and the steps they can take to help keep the air clean.

The Air Quality Program enforces federal, state, and local air pollution regulations through licensing and compliance activities and by promoting pollution prevention. We are responsible for the operation and maintenance of a comprehensive network of air quality monitoring stations throughout Broward County to make sure federal air pollution standards are met. Our staff also participates in local land use planning activities and informs the public about the importance of alternative means of transportation to help protect air quality.

Through our licensing and compliance efforts and educational outreach to residents, the Broward County Air Quality Program is working to protect one of our most important natural resources, the air we all breathe.
