The Air District is issuing its second Spare the Air Alert of the year for ozone for Tuesday, September 23.

The Air District has awarded $1.18 million grant to the San Ramon Valley Unified School District to replace seven older school buses, five compressed natural gas buses and two diesel buses with zero-emission electric buses and the charging infrastructure to support them. The project will also support the installation of eight DC fast chargers and related infrastructure.

The Air District has relaunched its Clean Cars for All program with more than $10 million available from state and local funding sources for income-qualified Bay Area residents to purchase cleaner air vehicles.

Changes focus on improving efficiency and delivering timely, transparent permit decisions.
