Residents living within the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) jurisdiction are eligible to register for the 2015 Electric Lawn Mower Exchange Program. This annual program offers SCAQMD residents an opportunity to help clean the air by exchanging an old, operable gasoline-powered lawn mower and purchasing a new electric cordless lawnmower. Pre-registration is required. This year, you have six models to choose from, with your cost ranging from $100 to $250 depending on the model you choose. There will be six exchange locations scheduled. https://xappprod.aqmd.gov/lawnmowerexchange/Program/Sechedule to REGISTER NOW OVERVIEW LAWN MOWER LEAF BLOWER OVERVIEW SCAQMD has two annual programs that help clean the air through the exchange of lawn and garden equipment: In the spring, residents can turn in an old, operable gasoline-powered lawn mower and purchase a new cordless electric lawnmower that produces zero emissions at reduced cost. In the summer or fall, commercial landscapers and gardeners operating with the South Coast Air Basin can exchange old, noisy, high-polluting backpack leaf blowers for new backpack blowers that have significantly reduced emission and noise levels. An older gas-powered lawn mower can spew more pollution into the air in a single year than a car driven more than 22,000 miles. All the gas mowers and leaf blowers that are turned in for this program are scrapped and the metal recycled. To date, SCAQMD has scrapped more than 55,000 highly polluting gasoline mowers, removing almost 114 tons of smog-forming pollutants from the Southland’s air. Similarly, the total number of old, polluting leaf blowers that have been scrapped exceeds 10,000.
