Opportunities for Butte County Residents:
Update as of May 14, 2024 – Our current round of funding for residential lawn and garden projects has been exhausted. If you’re interested in being notified of future opportunities, please contact us to be placed on a notification list.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS?
1. Apply for one or more vouchers using the form above and submit to BCAQMD (at office or email to snassie@bcaqmd.org) with a photo of equipment.
2. If approved, BCAQMD will issue you a voucher for each piece of equipment to be replaced.
3. Turn in your voucher to the Participating Merchant of your choice and they will reduce the purchase price of the new equipment by the voucher amount.
4. Before receiving the new equipment, the replaced equipment must be scrapped (Merchants to provide form for recyclers to sign).
Opportunities for Commercial, Public, and Non-Profit Organizations:
We have exceeded our initial allocation and are not accepting new applications except for projects in state-defined Disadvantaged Communities (map) which includes the Chapman / Park Ave area of Chico and Thermalito. If you’d like to be notified of when funding is available again for this program, please contact us.
Looking to purchase new zero-emission equipment without replacing older combustion equipment? Small businesses and sole-proprietors may be eligible for vouchers from the California CORE Program.
