San Tan Valley's air quality reflects the Phoenix metropolitan area's southeastern basin extension, with vehicle emissions from US-60 and SR-24 the primary local source in this rapidly growing Pinal County suburban development. Windblown Sonoran Desert dust from surrounding open desert areas contributes PM10 during haboob events, while summer ozone from the vast Phoenix metropolitan traffic and intense desert heat are the primary warm-season concerns.
