The orange alert, the second highest in the city's four-tier warning system, indicates an air quality index (AQI) over 200 for three consecutive days, or more than 300 for one day.
Effective from 6 p.m. Sunday, a second emergency response will be initiated whereby polluting plants are ordered to cut emissions by 30 percent, with medium-sized and large diesel vehicles taken off the road. Outdoor construction will also be limited, with dusty earth and rock work suspended.
