  4. Application based on project type

Optional Pre-Screening Application for Facility Ventilation Upgrades: Applicants may submit an optional pre-screening application for screening facility ventilation upgrades. The Air District will review pre-screening applications to screen and pre-approve proposed Clean Air Centers for facility ventilation upgrades. Counties should coordinate with cities and communities in their jurisdiction to determine the locations of Clean Air Centers.

The following information needs to be submitted as part of the pre-screening application:

  1. List of proposed Clean Air Centers for facility ventilation upgrades
  2. Cost estimate of upgrade
  3. A map showing where the Clean Air Centers will be located

The Air District will send notices about pre-screening application materials via e-mail to the county liaison. An applicant who submits a pre-screening application is still required to submit a full application after the proposed Clean Air Centers facilities are pre-approved by the Air District.
