The Air District is inviting residents to participate in the sixth annual California Clean Air Day on October 4. Designed around individual actions, the event is a statewide initiative built on the idea that shared experiences unite people to improve community health. 

The Air District and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission today marked the 10-year anniversary of the Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program, which requires employers with 50 or more full-time employees in the region to enroll in the program, select the commuter benefit option they will provide, and identify how they will promote that benefit to employees. 

The Air District has expanded the Clean Cars for All program to the entire nine-county Bay Area within the Air District’s jurisdiction.

The Air District is announcing the availability of $750,000 through the James Cary Smith Community Grant Program for community groups, neighborhood associations, and nonprofits to participate in decisions that impact their environment and health. 

The Air District is announcing the launch of its 2022 James Cary Smith Community Grant Program, which is funding more than 30 community groups and nonprofit organizations to engage community members in decisions that impact their air quality and health.

As employees throughout the Bay Area make plans to return to the workplace, the Air District and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission encourage businesses to review their Commuter Benefits Program registration and update it with new commute options. In the Bay Area, companies with 50 or more full-time employees are required to register for, provide, and promote commuter benefits to their workforce.

The Air District is warning unregistered Bay Area employers subject to the Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program that they could face financial penalties for not coming into compliance with the 2016 regulation. 

The Bay Area Air Quality Management District is lifting the Health Advisory & Spare the Air Alert due to significantly improved air quality conditions from favorable wind patterns and increased fire containment. However, unhealthy air quality will still be present in the immediate vicinity of actively burning fires.

The Air District is extending the air quality advisory for potential smoke in parts of the Bay Area through Sunday, October 21.

Sharon Landers, interim executive officer of the Air District, has offered a statement about the Supreme Court's decision today that limits the U.S. EPA's authority to regulate carbon emissions.
