Placer County Air Pollution Control District is seeking applications for the 2013 Clean Air Grant Program. The goal of the program is to incentivize emission reducing projects in Placer County not otherwise required by law.

The open application period closes at 5pm Feb. 28. Applications are available online.

The district has approximately $950,000 available for eligible projects.

Eligible projects will be evaluated on a cost-effective basis, with respect to the reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) and diesel particulate matter (DPM) emissions (not green house gas emissions). All projects selected for funding must operate at least 75 percent of their time within Placer County and be completed within two years or less of grant approval.
