AB 181- School District Transportation Service Plans 
This page provides information for school districts on  consulting with the Air District on Transportation Service Plans to meet the  requirements of AB 181. 
          Overview 
            California Assembly Bill 181 requires school districts to  develop transportation service plans in consultation with air quality  management districts. “SEC. 14. 39800.1. (b) (1) The Plan shall be developed in  consultation with classified staff, teachers, school administrators, regional  local transit authorities, local air pollution control districts and air  quality management districts, parents, pupils, and other stakeholders.” The Air  District does not review these plans; however, it does offer several funding  programs that school districts may take advantage of when implementing their  developed plans. 
          School districts that receive and consider the information  provided on this web page are considered to have consulted adequately with the  Air District. 
          Funding 
            The Air District does not provide transportation service  planning; however, the District provides grant funds through the Carl Moyer  Program, AB 923, and MCAP (AB 1505) that may support your plan. 
          Carl Moyer Program, AB 923, and MCAP  
            All three grant funds are implemented pursuant to the Carl  Moyer Program guidelines. These incentive programs provides funding for the  replacement of old high-emitting school buses with new lower-emissions diesel-fueled  Tier IV, CNG, and zero-emission electric school buses. More information on this  funding, eligibility criteria, and how to apply can be found on the Air  District’s School Buses web page (Click Here).  |
