Air District Fact

In 2004, the Air District embarked on the groundbreaking Community Air Risk Evaluation (CARE) program. This program, projected to last several years, will involve an unprecedented degree of coordination among stakeholders and staff with expertise in air monitoring, modelling, and analysis working together to better understand the impacts of toxic pollutants at local levels.
