The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (Air District) is a regional government agency, committed to achieving clean air to protect the public's health and the environment. The Air District accomplishes this goal through regulation of industrial facilities and various outreach and incentive programs designed to encourage clean air choices. 

The Air District's jurisdiction encompasses all of seven counties - Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara and Napa, and portions of two others - southwestern Solano and southern Sonoma.
 
The Air District is currently accepting applications for the position of Air Quality Engineer I/II in the Air Quality Modeling and Analysis (AQMA) Section of the Assessment, Inventory, and Modeling (AIM) Division. This is an open recruitment for one (1) full-time, represented vacancy position.
 
 DEFINITION
 
Under direction, performs professional engineering work in a variety of areas such as permit application evaluation, calculation of air pollutant emissions, toxic risk screening and health risk assessment evaluations, compliance audits and source testing; performs related work as assigned.
 
 DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
 
 Air Quality Engineer I is the entry-level class of this series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents perform a variety of routine air quality engineering duties while learning District policies and procedures and specialized air quality knowledge. With experience, the work becomes increasingly more diversified and difficult and requires increasing independence of judgment. This class is alternately staffed with Air Quality Engineer II and incumbents may progress to the higher level after gaining experience and demonstrating proficiency which meet the qualifications for the higher-level class.

Air Quality Engineer II is the journey level in this series. Incumbents perform a variety of difficult air quality engineering work and exercise a greater latitude of independent judgment. This class is distinguished from Senior Air Quality Engineer in that the latter is the specialist level and performs the more complex air quality engineering duties and provides lead direction to engineering staff.

About the Division

The Assessment, Inventory, and Modeling (AIM) Division prepares comprehensive source emission inventories for the Bay Area and conducts air quality modeling at both regional and community scales. AIM prepares technical assessments that evaluate equity in air pollution exposures and health impacts in support of Air District programs. AIM coordinates and implements programs to improve and report estimates of emissions of criteria pollutants, toxic air contaminants, and climate forcing pollutants. AIM assesses emissions, modeled concentrations, and exposures of toxic air contaminants, particulate matter, ozone and their precursors, to support targeted strategies that reduce impacts of air pollution both regionally and within communities, especially in impacted communities requiring action plans in accordance with Assembly Bill 617 (AB617). AIM reviews and provides guidance on environmental health risk assessments within environmental review documents prepared pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

The San Mateo County Express Lanes Joint Powers Authority (SMCEL-JPA) is a collaborative effort between C/CAG and the TA), both of which serve as founding member agencies. This partnership was established to jointly oversee the development, implementation, and operations of express lanes on U.S. Highway 101 in San Mateo County.

The following sections provide background on each member agency, their individual missions and responsibilities, and how they work together under the SMCEL-JPA to advance regional mobility and manage the Express Lanes Program.

C/CAG
The City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) is a joint powers agency whose members include the County of San Mateo and the twenty (20) incorporated cities and towns within San Mateo County. C/CAG is governed by a 21-member Board of Directors and is advised by nine standing committees. C/CAG is the designated Congestion Management Agency (CMA) in San Mateo County, also known as the County Transportation Agency (CTA), the Airport Land Use Commission, and the Countywide Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program Manager. C/CAG provides a collaborative forum for all jurisdictions in San Mateo County to pursue our goals for a safe, equitable, and accessible multi-modal transportation network and an environmentally sustainable, climate resilient future. More information on C/CAG can be found at https://ccag.ca.gov/. 

San Mateo County Transportation Authority (TA)

The TA plans, funds and delivers transportation programs and projects throughout San Mateo County and was formed to administer the proceeds from Transportation sales tax measures (Measure A and Measure W) to fund a broad spectrum of transportation-related projects and programs. The TA has invested approximately $2 billion in transportation infrastructure projects in San Mateo County since 1988.  More information on the TA can be found at https://www.smcta.com/. 

San Mateo County Express Lanes Joint Powers Authority (SMCEL-JPA)

The San Mateo County Express Lane is a dual-agency project constructed with the goal to reduce traffic congestion, and to promote carpooling and transit use on US Highway 101 (US 101) in San Mateo County. The project was initiated in 2018 between the city/county Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) and the San Mateo County Transportation Authority (TA). 

In June 2019, C/CAG and TA approved a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (JEPA), allowing both entities equitable involvement in the SMCEL program. The agreement designated a JPA to manage the express lanes, which would be governed by a Board containing equal representation from each agency. Additionally, the JEPA established an Executive Council, which is formed by the Executive Directors of both agencies, and hired consultant support to develop and implement policies.

Since the JPA was established in 2019, two segments of the Express Lanes have been constructed. The south segment opened in 2022, and the north segment opened in 2023. The JPA manages 22 miles of express lanes on US 101 from Interstate 380 in South San Francisco to the San Mateo County/Santa Clara County border.   More information on the JPA can be found at https://101expresslanes.org/. 

Both C/CAG and the TA aim to create an environment where all employees are treated with fairness and respect, regardless of their background, and one where their unique perspectives are celebrated. The agencies are dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive workforce, and welcome candidates who share commitment to these values.
