California Committee Supports Mobile Source Programs.

Alternative-fuel transit vehicles, heavy-duty vehicles, electric bicycles, and land-use strategies all may be funded in Southern California through a program driven by the Mobile Sources Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC). The committee is responsible for a budget of $14.5 million

Focusing on Southern California, MSRC has been chartered to support projects that generate the greatest measurable emissions reduction, are cost-effective, and are likely to garner local matching funds. Businesses, local government agencies, research institutions, and other organizations are encouraged to apply for funding from the committee.

Categories are divergent but focus on mobile sources. This year's focus includes alternative-fuel transit, on- and off-road heavy vehicles, transportation control measures, voluntary rideshare programs, electric bicycles, and others.
