The children had been identified in a cross\u2010sectional survey of two coastal areas: Lake Munmorah (LM), within 5 km of two power stations, and Nelson Bay (NB), free from major industry. Daily air quality [sulphur dioxide (SO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>) and nitrogen oxides (NO<jats:sub>x<\/jats:sub>)], respiratory symptoms, and treatment for asthma were recorded throughout the year.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Measurements of SO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> and NO<jats:sub>x<\/jats:sub> at LM were well within recommended guidelines although they were several times higher than at NB: maximum daily levels in SO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> (\u03bcg\/m<jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>) were 26 at LM, 11 at NB (standard, 365); yearly average SO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> was 2 at LM, 0.3 at NB (standard, 60); yearly average NO<jats:sub>x<\/jats:sub> (\u03bcg\/m<jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>) was 2 at LM, 0.4 at NB (standard, 94).
