The purpose of the Small Business Assistance Program is to help small businesses in San Diego County comply with Air Pollution Control District regulations at the lowest possible cost. Most businesses are too busy serving their customers and running their businesses to worry about air pollution. And many can't afford to hire a consultant or staff person to keep their company up-to-date on changing environmental regulations.
However, the equipment, materials and processes used by many small busineses can produce emissions that contribute to San Diego's air pollution problems. That's why the Air Pollution Control District developed the Small Business Assisatnce (SBA) program--to make it eaiser for small business owners to comply with District rules and Regulations.
