Using BAAQMD.gov

New & Improved

BAAQMD.gov is the official Web site of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. The Web site has long been an important online air quality resource for residents and businesses in the Bay Area.

In June 2009, BAAQMD.gov was redesigned with a new look and feel, designed to be more user-friendly for Bay Area residents and businesses who need to quickly find air quality information, check on upcoming community meetings, or perform actions like registering equipment, downloading forms, or signing up for e-mail notifications.

Quick & Easy Access

The information on BAAQMD.gov is accessible in several ways. The homepage offers three distinct entry ways into the Web site,

• Live – Air Quality for the Community
• Work – Air Quality for Business
• Know – Air Quality Science

The About and Division menus on the top navigation bar also provide additional shortcuts to navigate the Web site.

Throughout the site, you’ll find relevant resources, like related forms, upcoming events and opportunities to apply, submit, participate and/or exchange information with the Air District.

Up-to-Date Information & News Alerts

You’ll find timely air quality information, upcoming community meetings and several subscription offerings to receive alerts and notifications by e-mail or RSS feed.
