	EFFECT OF FINE PARTICULATE AIR POLLUTION ON LUNG CANCER IN THE UNITED STATES AMONG SMOKERS AND NON-SMOKERS
		A fine particle was defined as less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter; concentrations per cubic meter of air ranged from 5 to 20 micrograms in the 51 metropolitan areas.
		A 10 microgram per cubic meter increase in fine particle concentration increased the death rate from lung cancer by 8 percent; the increased risk for lung cancer was found particularly for non-smokers whose risk of lung cancer is ordinarily very low.
		The authors concluded "long-term exposure to combustion-related fine particulate air pollution is an important environmental risk factor for cardiopulmonary and lung cancer mortality".

	NJDEP - In Pursut of Clean Air
		Fine particulate matter, also referred to as PM2.5, is a mixture of fine liquid and solid particles such as dust, smoke, mist, fumes or smog that pollutes the air and causes serious health problems.
		The fine particulate problem in New Jersey comes from sources such as diesel-powered engines that directly emit particles and from upwind power plants that emit gases that are converted to particles as they travel downwind to New Jersey.
		Fine particulate levels are higher in these areas primarily due to diesel exhaust emissions.

		The Clean Air Act, which was passed in 1970 and last amended in 1990, requires the U.S. to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for pollutants that cause adverse effects to public health and the environment.
		When air quality standards are announced as final, the Clean Air Act sets a basic schedule for achieving the standards, and in some cases, requirements to meet the standards.
		Air monitoring is conducted to measure whether air quality standards are being met.

	Fine Air - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since it started flying, Fine Air has had various members of the Fine family work at different capabilities.
		On August 7, 1997, Fine Air flight 101, a Cargo DC-8-61F registration # N27UA, en route from Miami to Santo Domingo, in the Dominican Republic, suffered sudden movement of cargo materials in the aft cargo hold while on take off.
		For nearly 45 minutes, mixed reports claimed the plane was a passenger flight, but within the hour the control tower at MIA confirmed it was Fine Air Cargo Flight 101.

	Air Pollution; Fine Particles - Health Effects
		"Air pollution from the combustion of fossil fuels (oil, coal, and natural gas) in cars, trucks, and power plants, is killing roughly 60,000 Americans each year, according to researchers at Harvard University's School of Public Health.This represents about 3% of all U.S. deaths each year.
		Fine particles are not captured efficiently by modern pollution-control equipment.
		Even air pollution levels that are well within legal limits are killing people, especially older people, and people with chronic heart and lung ailments, the Harvard researchers have found.

	TheStreet.com: Fine Air IPO Was a Disaster Waiting to Happen
		For Fine, "this IPO was critical, because they were at a critical stage in their growth," says Brian Clancy, principal of MergeGlobal, an air cargo consulting firm in Virginia.
		Fine denies responsibility for the incident, claiming it did not know the plane was carrying weapons, and the FAA cleared Fine of the charges.
		Fine Air lawyer Ken Hoffman says the company didn't disclose the possible FAA action because Fine believed there was "a low probability that all of the pilots under investigation, if any, would be suspended by the FAA." Besides, Hoffman notes, "there are crew members available in the Miami area readily to replace the individuals."

	Coarse and fine air supply control for closed-loop controlled carbureted internal combustion engines - Patent 4303049
		Additional air is supplied to the engine through an air bleed in accordance with the magnitude of the analog feedback signal to provide a coarse control of air-fuel ratio and in response to the digital pulses to provide a fine control of the ratio.
		The maximum quantity of air supplied to the chamber 18 is obtained when all of the valves 74a through 74e as well as the control valve 26 are open to their fullest extent.
		In this embodiment, the amount of air controlled by the valve 26 is proportional to its opening time, whereas the amount of air controlled by valves 74a to 74e is proportional to the number of valves opened in response to the applied signals.

		Particulate matter is categorized as “fine” particles of 2.5 microns or less in diameter or “coarse” particles between 2.5 and 10 microns in diameter.
		Fine particles can penetrate into the sensitive regions of the respiratory tract. Health problems associated with particulate matter can get worse for sensitive people if they are exposed to high levels of fine particles for several days in a row.
		Fine particles are the major cause of reduced visibility (haze) in parts of the United States, including many of our national parks.

	AAI to slap hefty fine on Air Sahara : HindustanTimes.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Airports Authority of India is considering slapping a hefty fine on Air Sahara to compensate losses caused to other airlines in the wake of a mishap involving the private carrier's aircraft in Mumbai last week.
		Air Sahara flight from Kolkata overshot the runway at the Mumbai airport on October 9 -- an incident that AAI in its preliminary report said was "purely due to the mistake of the pilot of the aircraft."
		But the fine, the exact amount of which would be worked out soon, would be slapped on Air Sahara for not removing its damaged Boeing 737-400 aircraft from the runway on time, which had affected flight movement of other airlines.

		Directly-emitted fine particles, such as soot (carbon fl) or fine particles created by the transformation of particle-forming gases, such as sulfur dioxide (SO2) or volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are of greater health concern.
		In addition to their potential to affect health, fine particles also play a role in visibility impairment, acid rain, and toxic air pollution.
		Fine particles (PM2.5) present a substantial new regulatory challenge because of the multiplicity of potential sources, the stringency of the annual standard, controversy over assumptions about background levels, and regional climatology.
