The North Coast Unified Air Quality Management District is a local governmental agency that was formed in 1981. Our mission is to serve the public by protecting the air resources within Humboldt, Del Norte, and Trinity counties which are located in northwestern California. Protection of the air resource is accomplished through public education, enforcement of air quality regulations, and promotion of clean air programs. We provide these high quality customer service programs to the citizens of the North Coast and the diversified industrial economic base located here.

Much of the AQMD's revenue comes from fees paid by businesses and industries that emit air pollution. Additional funding is derived from a clean air surcharge imposed on all vehicles registered within the AQMD, and monies obtained from other State funding sources. The Annual Budget runs on a fiscal year from July 1 to June 30. The District administers a series air pollution reduction programs including: open burning, grants, permitting of stationary sources, emission inventory and air quality monitoring, and planning and rule development. If you would like additional information about any of the programs we offer, services we perform, or would like copies of documents, reports, or files, please complete the Public Information Request form and return it to the District.

The District office is located at the corner of Myrtle Avenue and Glenwood Street in Eureka, California. We continuously seek to improve District programs and solicit active participation from the public through our "We Care Program". Take the time to stop by the main office, meet the staff, and find out how the AQMD staff makes customer service happen.
