Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program provides
incentive grants for cleaner-than-required engines, equipment and other
sources of pollution providing early or extra emission reductions. Eligible
projects include cleaner on-road, off-road, marine, locomotive and
stationary agricultural pump engines. The program
achieves near-term reductions in emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOx),
particulate matter (PM), and reactive organic gas (ROG) which are
necessary for California to meet its clean air commitments under the
State Implementation Plan. NOx and ROG combine in the presence of sunlight to form ozone (smog), while PM, a
component of diesel exhaust, has been identified as a toxic air
contaminant by the Air Resources Board. |
