A Healthy Breathing Environment For Every Bay Area Resident

Community Air Protection Incentives Program

The Community Air Protection Incentives Program is a voluntary program that reduces emissions in the Bay Area’s most impacted communities by funding projects that upgrade or replace heavy-duty vehicles and equipment with cleaner technologies.

Community Air Protection Year 5

Priority is given to projects that reduce emissions in the Bay Area’s communities most impacted by air pollution, including the AB 617 communities of West Oakland, Richmond-San Pablo, East Oakland, communities for future AB 617 consideration, and disadvantaged and low-income communities.
Focus is on the cleanest technologies available
Community participation will be relied on to inform program outreach and identify opportunities for new projects
