South Coast AQMD’s Small Business Assistance (SBA) Office helps small business owners comply with agency rules and regulations, permit conditions, and recordkeeping through a variety of services. The program helps small business operators determine which rules apply to their operations, how to meet the requirements and how to maintain records.

The SBA team consists of Air Quality Engineers and Specialists, who act as advocates for small business owners within South Coast AQMD’s jurisdiction and are available to give free on-site technical consultations. These experienced staff inspect equipment and operations and review recordkeeping materials. The program does not issue any tickets nor impose any fines for violations encountered during visits.
