In 2019, California Assembly Bill 423 (AB 423) amended the
California Health and Safety Code which directed the District to
consider adopting an indirect source rule to address pollution from
mobile sources that is associated with stationary sources such as
ports, warehouses, and distribution centers. Per the AB 423
requirement, District staff began researching potential indirect
source rule concepts, meeting with stakeholders, and evaluating
indirect sources such as ports, warehouses, and distribution centers
located throughout San Diego County.
The District's Governing Board directed staff to continue with more proactive engagement and convene a working group of community and industry stakeholders to consider and develop potential alternative regulatory and non-regulatory strategies that could further reduce indirect source emissions at the community level. The purpose of the Warehouse Working Group (WWG) is to offer input to the District regarding potential regulatory and non-regulatory strategies to reduce air pollution and public health impacts from heavy-duty trucks and other indirect sources associated with warehouses and distribution centers in the San Diego region, with priority to those facilities in under-resourced communities
**At its April meeting, the San Diego County Air
Pollution Control District Governing Board voted to continue the
item regarding Strategies to Reduce Indirect Source Emissions at
Warehouses and Distribution Centers. The Board is scheduled to hear
the continued item at a special meeting on May 14, 2026. The public
will have an opportunity to submit written and verbal comments at
the May meeting.**
