The District accomplishes this goal through regulation of industrial facilities and various outreach and incentive programs designed to encourage clean air choices. The 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.
 
At the District, we take pride in our commitment to fostering a workplace that values diversity and promotes cultural awareness. We prioritize employee engagement by providing a collaborative and inclusive environment that encourages active participation and open dialogue. Additionally, we believe in pay equity and strive to create an equitable compensation structure.

The District is currently accepting applications for the position of Senior Environmental Planner in the Planning and Climate Protection Division. This is an open recruitment for two (2) full-time, limited-term contract positions. Both positions are for a 2-year term.
 
This is a Limited Term Contract Employee (LTCE) Position. LTCE positions are funded by grants or other designated funds which are not part of the District’s ongoing general fund budget.

You will lead and participate in the successful preparation and implementation of community-scale air quality plans in partnership with Air District staff, community members and partner organizations, and work to support communities and local governments determine how to best improve air quality and reduce health disparities while centering equity and addressing environmental justice.

You will also interface with local, regional, and state agencies in developing and implementing these community-scale air quality plans.
 
Assembly Bill 617
Assembly Bill (AB) 617 (C. Garcia, Chapter 136, Statutes of 2017) was signed into law alongside Assembly Bill 398 which extended California’s cap-and-trade program for greenhouse gas emissions. AB 617 addresses environmental justice concerns regarding the extension of the cap-and-trade program by requiring the California Air Resources Board, with input from community groups, air districts and others, to select locations around the state to prepare community-led plans to reduce emissions of toxic air contaminants and criteria pollutants. Communities can also be selected to prepare community-led monitoring plans. The primary requirement for community selection is a demonstrated high cumulative exposure burden to air pollution and associated health disparities. In the Bay Area, and around the state, these communities are often low-income communities of color.
 
In 2017, West Oakland and Richmond were selected as the first communities to participate in the AB 617 program. Since then, East Oakland and Bayview Hunters Point/Southeast San Francisco communities have been added to the program. The Air District works closely with these communities to both develop and implement emission reduction and monitoring plans.

EPA Climate Pollution Reduction Grant
As part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the US EPA launched the Climate Pollution Reduction Grant (CPRG) program, providing $250 million nationwide to states and metropolitan regions to develop regional greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction plans, and $4.3 billion in nationally competitive grants to implement measures in those plans. The Air District has received $1 million from this EPA program to lead an eight-county climate action planning process. This planning effort identifies GHG mitigation measures across economic sectors to achieve aggressive GHG reduction goals and benefit frontline communities.
