Fauske kommune's air quality reflects the inner Salten Skjerstadfjord position adjacent to Bodø's eastern corridor, with vehicle traffic and the marble quarrying and services corridor contributing local sources. Consistent fjord breezes provide ventilation, while the marble quarrying's distinctive mineral dust represents the most locally notable contribution and Fauske generally maintains moderate to good conditions throughout most of the year.
