The Air District has confirmed the source of the odor to be the West Contra Costa County Landfill's compost operation.

The Air District is preparing to distribute over $124 million in funding to support local communities overburdened by air pollution — and we need your input! This funding comes from penalties collected from industry and businesses that violate Air District regulations. Your feedback will help shape how these funds are used to reduce air pollution and improve health outcomes in your community.

The Air District’s Clean HEET Program is now accepting applications for grants that can help to offset the cost of switching from wood-burning or pellet-burning stoves, fireplace inserts, or open-hearth fireplaces to an electric heat pump. A decommission-only option is also available for homeowners to remove existing open-hearth fireplaces or older, uncertified wood-burning stoves or inserts. Switching to an electric heat pump helps improve air quality in communities by replacing polluting wood-burning devices with cleaner heating options.
