Local Government Match Program
The Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC) is pleased to announce a new round of Clean Transportation Funding available exclusively to cities and counties within the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD). The Local Government Match Program offers to co-fund clean air projects implemented by cities and counties that utilize their Motor Vehicle Registration Fee Subvention Funds, commonly referred to as AB 2766 Subvention Funds. The MSRC, using its Discretionary Funds, will contribute match funding towards qualifying projects. All cities and counties within the jurisdiction of the AQMD who receive AB 2766 Subvention Funds are eligible to participate in this Program. Also, regional Councils of Governments (COGs) who receive an appropriation of AB 2766 Subvention Funds from their member jurisdictions are eligible to participate, provided that qualifying AB 2766 Subvention Funds are used by the COG as the matching funds.
Eligible project categories for this year's Local Government Match Program have been refined to better support cities' and counties' air quality improvement needs. The following project categories are eligible to receive MSRC matching funds under the 2012 Program:
New Alternative-Fuel Refueling Stations
Upgrade & Expansion of Existing Alternative Fuel Refueling Stations
Upgrade of Existing Fleet Maintenance Facilities to Accommodate Gaseous-fuel Vehicles
Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Purchase of Medium & Heavy-Duty Alternative Fuel Vehicles
