Community-Identified Project Approval Notice: Reducing Air Pollution Exposure in Schools and Other Facilities Project
This is CARB's notice of approval of South Coast Air Quality Management District's (AQMD) submitted Project Plan to expand the eligibility criteria described in Chapter 5 of the CAP Guidelines for reducing air pollution at schools to include daycare or childcare centers, preschools, community centers, and libraries that are prioritized by CSC members in AB617 communities within South Coast Air Basin or prioritized by South Coast AQMD to be eligible for CAP funding for up to 100% of the eligible costs of the air filtration systems including costs associated with site assessments. This project plan will provide incentives to schools, preschools, daycare or childcare centers, community centers, and libraries that are prioritized by CSC members or South Coast AQMD due to their proximity to stationary and mobile source emission sources to install air filtration systems that reduce the concentration of particulate contaminants from indoor air. The CSC members in each community developed a prioritization school or other facilities.
