    PaulW, looking on DDC Website under environment, the latest update I could figure out is as follows:

    Air Quality
    Detailed Assessment (NO2 Eastern Docks) November 2007
    The report follows on from the Updating Screening Assessment (April 2006) which recommended a Detailed Assessment at the Port due to potential for exceedences of the hourly NO2 Objective.

    This Air Quality Detailed Assessment report has evaluated nitrogen dioxide emissions within the Eastern Docks using modelling and monitoring data from the Eastern Docks monitoring site. There are some quite detailed analysis of episodes to establish the source apportionment.Conclusions in the report indicate that whilst there were exceedences of the annual mean objective and the hourly objective, these were not at locations representing relevant public exposure.

    In view of this the Council do not have to declare further AQMAs in this area at this time. The report highlights that episodes can be entitrely affected by meteorological conditions and whilst in 2007 the number of exceedences may not breach the Objectives the situation can change from year to year.

    It is recommended that monitoring continues at the eastern Docks site
