Criteria for such ranking is based on location, inputs/outputs of production, technology used, quantity/quality of pollutants, inspection records, and degree of fulfillment. The environmental inspector should discuss the violation case(s) with the enterprise owner prior to issuing the fine. Violation reporting should specify measures to be taken to rectify the issue. Inspection visit could necessitate undertaking an environmental audit inside the enterprise by external parties, in which case the inspector should be able to provide guidance. In addition, the in light of environmental correction measures can share Clean Development Mechanisms with the industrial sector to meet environmental objectives. Air Quality and Noise Thresholds and Monitoring Air quality and noise Jordanian Standard for Ambient Air Quality 1140/2006 – The Jordanian Standards for ambient air quality JS 1140/2006 include regulations concerning the allowable concentrations of pollutants for durations of time. The following pollutants are covered in the standard: SO2, TSP, PM10, NO2, CO, H2S, and Pb. Also included in the standard is the number of allowable exceeding occasions per year. This standard should be consulted if any of the preceding pollutants will be produced due to operations. See the following table for allowable limits. Air Average Maximum Number of Pollutant Time Allowable allowed Concentration exceedances Sulfur 3 times 1 Hour 0.30 mg/kg Dioxide within a (SO2) given month Once a year 24 Hour 0.14 mg/kg in one year -- 1 Year 0.04 mg/kg Carbon 3 1 Hour 26 mg/kg Monoxide within a (CO) given month 3 times 8 Hour 9 mg/kg in one year within a given month Nitrogen 3 times 1 Hour 0.21 mg/kg in one year Dioxide within a (NO2) given month 3 24 Hour 0.08 mg/kg in one year within a given month -- 1 Year 0.05 mg/kg in one year 3 1 Hour 0.03 mg/kg within a
