Air Quality Plans
Learn about the Air District’s process, methods, and goals for developing air quality management plans for the Bay Area.
The Air District prepares and updates regional air quality plans to achieve state and national ambient air quality standards, comply with state and national air quality planning requirements, and maintain healthy air in the Bay Area.
The Air District has also established the Community Air Protection Program in response to Assembly Bill (AB) 617 (C. Garcia, Chapter 136, Statutes of 2017). The focus of this program is to reduce exposure to local air pollution in communities most impacted by longstanding environmental injustices, including poor air quality, through development of community emission reduction plans.
To prepare these plans, Air District staff perform detailed technical analyses, including:
- Air quality monitoring data analysis to identify trends and progress toward reducing air pollutant concentrations.
- Emissions inventory data analysis to identify key emissions sources and reduction opportunities.
- Research and computer modeling to simulate air pollution concentrations and distribution, and to test potential emissions reduction measures.
Air quality plans identify control measures to reduce air pollutant emissions from industrial facilities, commercial processes, on and off road motor vehicles, and other sources. The Air District implements these control measures through rules and regulations, grant and incentive programs, public education and outreach, and partnerships with other agencies and stakeholders.
