Sign-Up for Air Quality Incident Notifications

Opt in to receive the Air District's Air Quality Incident Notifications via email and SMS texts.

Air Quality Incident Notifications will provide Bay Area residents with timely information about significant incidents affecting regional and local air quality.

Residents can sign up to register for emails and text alerts for incidents affecting specific counties or the entire Bay Area.

Please note: These Air Quality Incident Notifications are a courtesy service the Air District is providing to help Bay Area residents track notable air quality incidents in their communities. They are not a replacement for other important sources of air quality information - such as local Community Warning Systems, Spare the Air Alerts, the EPA Fire and Smoke Map, or local media coverage - and should not be relied on as a sole source of information about local air quality events.

SMS Air Quality Incident Notification System Terms of Use:
Message frequency will vary. Subscribers are expected to receive an estimated 1-15 texts per month, although potentially more, depending on the frequency of air quality incidents. Message and data rates may apply. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. See our Terms of Use web page for more information. Please refer to the Air District’s privacy policy if you have questions about how we use the information you submit.
