The San Luis Obispo County Air Pollution Control (APCD) is accepting proposals from qualified applicants to participate in the San Luis Obispo County 2010 Marine Engine Grant Program which provides funding to help replace older high-emission commercial marine vessel diesel engines with newer, cleaner engines.
Marine engine replacement incentives are available to replace engines on marine vessels that operate within the San Luis Obispo County portion of California Regulated Waters (i.e. ports, estuaries, bays and within 24 nautical miles of the coastline) and have home ports in Morro Bay or Port San Luis.
By promoting voluntary diesel engine emission reduction grant programs under cooperative agreements with eligible applicants, the APCD can reduce a significant source of diesel particulate emissions. Emission reductions result in improved air quality for San Luis Obispo County residents, and accelerate the process of achieving attainment with the California Ambient Air Quality Standards.
