The Ventura County Air Pollution Control Board convened on August 11, 2026, to discuss various air quality initiatives and grant-related actions. Key procurement-related items included approval of a grant agreement to fund the purchase and installation of five Telus TP-EVPD 360 kW DC fast chargers with Dina Charge, totaling up to $499,413, as part of the district's 126 corridor EV charger incentive program. The board also authorized an amendment to extend the completion date of a clean air grant project providing air purifiers to county schools, and approved a grant agreement of $15,840 to the Ojai Valley Green Coalition for educational programming on gardening and farming. Additionally, the board accepted a $67,500 EPA grant to support operation and maintenance of the district's PM2.5 monitoring network.
