State regulators have issued the first ozone advisory in western Wyoming's gas fields in more than two years and are telling people sensitive to air pollution to take precautions.
High levels of ozone are associated with smog, which sometimes smudges the sky in the Upper Green River Basin when conditions are right during the winter.
The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality says high levels of ozone are possible in the basin Monday and Tuesday. The department says children, the elderly and people with respiratory conditions should limit strenuous or extended outdoor activity.
