The Air District is extending an air quality advisory for the Bay Area due to wildfire smoke from fires in northern Sacramento Valley through Monday, July 14. Smoke from the Butler and Green wildfires is still moving down the Sacramento Valley and is expected to continue to impact air quality in portions of the Bay Area on Sunday and Monday. Areas that are expected to be most impacted will be parts of the North Bay and East Bay and higher elevation locations. Conditions can change rapidly and the amount and location of smoke at ground level is hard to predict. The public can check for real-time smoke pollution levels in their local area with the U.S. EPA’s Fire and Smoke Map.  Smoky, hazy skies may be visible, the smell of smoke is possible and air quality may become unhealthy at times on Sunday and Monday. 

The CARE Program unites government, communities, and businesses to address areas of concentrated air pollution and related public health effects in the Bay Area.

Learn all about air quality in the Bay Area, including air quality and weather forecasts, open burn and spare the air status, wood smoke pollution, and more.

The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program is a voluntary program that reduces emissions by funding diesel, alternative-fueled, and zero-emission replacement engines, vehicles, and equipment.
