California Schools Healthy Air, Plumbing, and Efficiency Ventilation Program Guidelines, Second Edition

The School Reopening Ventilation and Energy Efficiency Verification and Repair Program is one of the two grant programs under the School Energy Efficiency Stimulus Program, established by Assembly Bill 841 (Ting, Chapter 372, Statutes of 2020). The program authorizes funding to local educational agencies for assessing, maintaining, and repairing or upgrading school ventilation systems to ensure that systems meet certain classroom ventilation requirements. These guidelines provide requirements for program participation including eligible applicants and projects, the application process, funding awards and distribution, as well as project documentation and reporting requirements. For administering the program, the program is referred to as the California Schools Healthy Air, Plumbing, and Efficiency Program. The second edition of these guidelines addresses the initial phase of program awards, which is limited to assessment and maintenance projects for schools, and incorporates changes to project eligibility.
