Resource Type: Guidance
Website for the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) program which provides a funding source for State and local governments to fund transportation projects and programs to help meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
Toolkit providing access to information and resources about evolving loan funds, which are an internal capital pool that is dedicated to funding energy reduction or onsite generation projects that generate cost savings. A portion of those savings are then used to replenish the fund (i.e. revolved) allowing for reinvestment in future projects of similar value.
Website for the Portland Clean Energy Community Benefits Fund which invests in community-led projects to reduce carbon emissions, create economic opportunity, and help make Portland more resilient to a changing climate.
Website providing access to tools and resources related to programs that reduce emissions from trucks and buses in California. Includes information about regulations, zero-emission trucks, and infrastructure.
Website providing access to tools and resources related to Best Available Control Technologies to reduce emissions of criteria pollutants and air toxics.
Web page providing links to a number of different resources related to reducing wood smoke emissions, including examples of incentive programs and a model wood smoke ordinance.
This website provides information about California’s regulations to reduce light duty vehicle emissions. It includes links to regulatory programs for Low Emission and Zero Emission Vehicles, electric vehicle and hydrogen infrastructure, and information on advanced clean cars.
The Fuel Alternatives and Options guide, provided by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) through its DieselWise Indiana program, is a strategic resource for mayors looking to modernize municipal fleets and reduce the “diesel signature” in their cities.
Specifically, this webpage serves as a technical guide for city planners and fleet managers. It outlines the primary substitutes for traditional petroleum diesel, including Biodiesel, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Propane (LPG), Electricity, and Hydrogen. For each fuel type, the resource provides a breakdown of its chemical properties, compatibility with existing engines, environmental benefits, and the infrastructure required to support its adoption.
Central site for access to various tools and data to inform strategies to measure air pollution and reduce health impacts in California communities.
