CA Air Toxics Program
['Air Programs']

- The Air Toxics Program is a California-specific program designed to identify and control the exposure of toxic air emissions from stationary, area, and mobile sources.
- The program consists of several different pieces of legislation, each with specific requirements.
In an effort to identify and control the exposure of toxic air emissions for all Californians, the California Air Resource Board (CARB) established the Air Toxics Program. This program consists of several components, including identification and notification as well as addressing the impacts on communities and children.
Key foundational legislation aimed at the reduction of exposure to air toxics in the state include the Toxic Air Contaminant Identification and Control Act (AB 1807), the Air Toxics “Hot Spots” Information and Assessment Act (AB 2588), the Children’s Environmental Health Protection Act (SB 25), and the Community Air Protection Program (AB 617).
