The Program

The Regional Air Quality Council (RAQC) implemented the Local Agency Air Quality Projects Grant Pool (LAAQPGP).  The purpose of the LAAQPGP was to provide funding to local governments and local agencies for the development and implementation of programs that result in benefits to air quality.  Programs should focus on ground level ozone pollution; although projects addressing other pollutants are also eligible.  The grant pool funds were allocated and administered by the RAQC.
