The Bay Area Air District is announcing its new name and logo. The new look symbolizes the Air District’s new direction through recent leadership changes, reflecting a modernized brand that helps the agency stay connected and effective in its mission. 

The Air District is asking the public to not burn wood in their fireplaces, woodstoves, or outdoor fire pits through the New Year’s holiday to keep air quality from becoming unhealthy.

The Air District is issuing a Spare the Air Alert for tomorrow, Friday, December 20, which bans burning wood, manufactured fire logs or any other solid fuel, both indoors and outdoors.
