Burnsville's air quality benefits from the flat Dakota County Minnesota prairie providing generally good wind dispersal, with vehicle emissions from I-35W and I-35E the primary local sources in this major Minneapolis-St. Paul southern suburb. The broader Twin Cities metropolitan regional ozone from vehicle and agricultural sources is the primary warm-season concern, while the flat terrain and consistent prairie winds generally maintain moderate conditions throughout the year.
