California Air Resources Board

Understanding local air quality challenges and designing and implementing solutions draws on a wide range of technical information.  The resources below are designed to help community members, air districts, and the public identify impacted communities, understand and analyze emissions and air quality modeling data, develop and implement community air quality modeling, and develop a technical foundation for developing community-scale emissions reduction programs. 

Technology Clearinghouse

Tool to identify emission limits and control technologies for stationary sources

Air Quality and Emissions Data

Tools that track emissions and air concentrations of criteria pollutants, greenhouse gases, and toxic air contaminants

Community Identification Toolbox

Data sources, tools, and approaches to guide the assessment and prioritization of communities

Technical Foundation Toolbox

The technical foundation is comprised of several analyses that ultimately characterize emissions in the community, including a description of the key pollutants, sources, and source categories driving the air pollution exposure burden

Community Air Monitoring Toolbox

Information on air monitoring technologies, air monitoring activities, and pertinent resources for developing effective community air monitoring programs

Mobile Source Technology Assessments

Assessments that evaluate the current state and projected development of mobile source technologies and fuels

Enforcement Data Visualization System

An interactive mapping tool that allows the public to visualize CARB Enforcement activities throughout the State, including field inspections and case settlements
