Take the following actions: (1) Authorize the Shasta County Air Pollution Control Officer (APCO) to sign the attached Sub-Recipient Agreement with the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) for receiving EPA PM2.5 Grant Funds through CAPCOA; and (2) approve a budget amendment increasing state grant revenues by $14,526 and increase appropriations by $14,526 for the purchase of a new MetOne BAM 1022 PM2.5 monitor. |

The Air Quality Management District currently operates a MetOne BAM 1020 PM 2.5 monitor that is over 10 years old. According to MetOne the Unit and its hardware are no longer supported, and repairs to this unit may not be possible. CAPCOA has offered the Shasta County Air Quality Management District (District) EPA PM2.5 Grant funds for the purchase of a new MetOne BAM 1022 PM 2.5 Monitor at $14,526 as quoted by MetOne.

| | | | | | | | ALTERNATIVES
The Board may choose not to approve this budget amendment, but that is not recommended because the District’s monitoring equipment is in need of replacement.
|
| | | | | | | | OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
