The San Diego County Air Pollution Control District (SDAPCD) is a government agency established in 1955, dedicated to reducing air pollution and ensuring clean air for all in the region. The organization's mission is to improve air quality to protect public health and the environment. SDAPCD's 11-member Governing Board, which includes county supervisors, city council members, and public representatives, sets the policy direction for the organization.

SDAPCD offers a variety of services, such as air quality forecasting, agricultural burn decision-making, smoke advisories, incident response, and community programs like AB 617 and the Portside Community program. The brand also provides permits, compliance assistance, grants, and a range of programs aimed at reducing emissions from heavy-duty trucks, marine vessels, locomotives, and other sources. The agency is committed to promoting healthy communities, addressing environmental justice and equity, supporting public engagement, and ensuring operational excellence.
