Air Quality Board Update

At today’s Ada County Air Quality Board meeting, it was announced that the average per test price for a vehicle emissions test in Ada County is $18.50 and six cents of that amount goes to education and outreach. If we were to contract with DEQ (and use their contractor, SysTech) for the provision of vehicles emissions testing services, the fixed cost would be $11 per test and about 96 cents of that amount – 16 times as much – would go to education and outreach.
