Local air quality management - air quality grant - application letter and forms 2008/09
Since 1997 all local authorities have had statutory duties for local air quality management (LAQM) under Part IV of the Environment Act 1995. Authorities are required to review and assess air quality in their area against objectives for seven key air pollutants prescribed in regulations for that purpose.
The Department’s Air Quality Grant programme supports expenditure by local authorities on these duties. The 2008/09 programme will focus on providing grant aid to support local authorities expenditure on capital costs of monitoring equipment, emission inventories and dispersion modelling. Applications will also be considered for capital and/or running costs on projects which are part of local authorities action plans or other projects which will improve local air quality.
