(a)The south coast district shall establish an Office of Technology Advancement to administer the clean-burning fuels program established pursuant to this section. The program shall encourage projects that increase the utilization of clean-burning fuels that reduce public health hazards from air pollution. The south coast district shall coordinate the program with the state board, the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, and other appropriate state and federal agencies and private organizations that are conducting activities to promote the use of clean-burning fuels.
(b)After holding at least two public hearings to solicit public comment on a clean-burning fuels program, the south coast district shall annually adopt a program of activities for increasing the use of clean-burning fuels in the transportation and stationary source sectors.
(c)The program shall include an identification of potential funding sources, including, but not limited to, state and federal funds; private-sector funds; revenues from district permit, variance, and emission fees; proceeds from district penalty settlements and judgments; and funds from other sources under the jurisdiction of the south coast district.
