The Bay Area Air Quality Management District is advising Bay Area residents that although the forecast indicates the region will not exceed the federal health standard for smog, conditions remain elevated for fire danger and potential smoke impacts. 

The Air District and partners in an initiative to cut air pollution and protect endangered whales announced results from the 2019 program and recognized the 15 shipping companies that participated, reducing speeds to 10 knots or less in the San Francisco Bay Area and the Santa Barbara Channel region.

The Air District is sponsoring AB 953 (Connolly and Hart) to build upon and expand the voluntary vessel speed reduction program, Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies, statewide. Expansion of the speed reduction and sustainable shipping program for the entire California coast would reduce air pollution, greenhouse gases and the risk of fatal vessel strikes on whales.

Beginning December 7, 2021, the Air District’s Charge! program will begin accepting applications to help offset a portion of the cost of purchasing and installing new publicly available electric vehicle charging stations throughout the region. The goal of the Charge! program is to help build a charging network able to support the Bay Area’s electric vehicle adoption goals of 90 percent of the overall vehicle fleet by 2050. 

The Air District is extending the Spare the Air Alert through Monday, December 26, which bans burning wood, manufactured fire logs or any other solid fuel, both indoors and outdoors. Cold overnight temperatures, stagnant air, patchy dense fog, and a high-pressure system over the region is allowing wood smoke pollution to continue to build up over the region. Concurrently, offshore winds transporting additional pollution from the Central Valley is continuing to cause unhealthy air quality in the Bay Area.
