Puget Sound Clean Air Agency

The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency is a regional government agency created in 1967. Our jurisdiction covers King, Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish counties. The Agency works to protect public health, improve neighborhood air quality, and reduce our region’s contribution to climate change. We achieve our mission by monitoring air quality, sponsoring voluntary initiatives, educating people and businesses about air quality issues, and enforcing state and federal air quality laws.

Our staff of approximately 75 members includes inspectors, air resource specialists, engineers, meteorologists, monitoring technicians, project managers and communications specialists. Agency operations are supported by a team of specialists, such as IT services, human resources, legal, records management, finance and administrative staff. For more information on the Agency, please visit www.pscleanair.org. We are governed by a Board of Directors that includes elected officials from each of our four counties, a representative from the largest city in each county, and one member representing the public at large.

Also, as a part of the Agency’s strategic plan, we are deepening our commitment to equity and community engagement. We value an inclusive environment and equitable approaches to our work. We strive to be consistent yet equitable in our practices and policies, as well as in our external relationships among residents, businesses, and community partners. We also value equity, which means doing whatever it takes to ensure every person in our region has the same air-related health outcomes and benefits. The Agency aims to do this while providing responsive customer service through our regulatory and monitoring work as well as partnering with communities to develop solutions through our voluntary programs.
