The San Diego Air Pollution Control District administers a number of state and local funding programs to reduce emissions from mobile sources. These programs follow strict state guidelines for eligibility, cost-effectiveness and selection and require strict accountability and transparency to ensure proper and effective use of public funds.
Voucher Incentive Program (VIP)
The San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (District) is currently accepting applications for projects requesting funds from the Voucher Incentive Program (VIP). The VIP provides a streamlined approach to reduce emissions by installing a Verified Diesel Emission Control Strategy (VDECS or “retrofit”) or by replacing existing, high-polluting vehicles with newer, lower-emission vehicles. A total of approximately $1.4 million from Program Years 11/12 is currently available for eligible on-road heavy-duty diesel retrofit or replacement projects.
Applications will be reviewed and approved on a first-come, first-served basis (based on the date of receipt by the District) until funds are exhausted.Electronic or facsimile submittals will not be accepted. If a submitted application is incomplete, illegible, or any documentation is missing or unclear, the District will reject the application immediately and return it to the applicant.
Original signed copies of completed applications must be submitted via mail, delivery, or in person to:
San Diego County Air Pollution Control District 10124 Old Grove Road San Diego, CA 92131 Attn: Mobile Source Incentives Section
