Projects Eligible for Funding:
Project Types
Two types of light-duty vehicle projects are eligible for Carl Moyer Program funding: voluntary accelerated vehicle retirement (VAVR) and voluntary repair of vehicles (VRV). Air districts may choose either or both projects to administer. The Bureau of Automotive Repairs (BAR) also administers vehicle repair and retirement projects under their Consumer Assistance Program (CAP). Both the Carl Moyer Program and CAP projects are administered and operated in a consitent manner but accept vehicles at different times within the Smog Check cycle. Generally, the Carl Moyer Program accepts vehicles that have passed their last Smog Check test while CAP accepts vehicles that have either passed or failed their most recent Smog Check test For more detailed information on Project Criteria please see Chapter 13, Sections D-L, pages 13-2 to 13-4 of the 2011 Carl Moyer Program Guidelines.
