Need San Joaquin Valley APCD credits for an air permit?
Tell the desk the pollutant, the tons per year and the permit date. You get a written supply check: the register certificates that look like candidates (each one pending the district's eligibility review for your project), whether their holders have confirmed availability, the last recorded prices in the district's own units, the transfer steps and fee, and how payment and transfer timing are set (by the written transaction agreement between buyer and seller; the Exchange never holds funds). No fee for the check, and your request is not published.

Every recorded sale in San Joaquin Valley APCD, year by year
From the district's own transaction records, San Joaquin Valley APCD — Cost of Emission Reduction Credit Transactions (annual reports), and, for sales the district file does not list, from Table V-1 of CARB's statewide §40709.5 reports. Where both record the same sale the district's figure is used and the CARB line is not counted again. Median price per ton as recorded, the number of sales (n) and the low–high range. 2,205 transactions in all; 17 recorded without a price (12 of them recorded at $0.00: transfers without a cash price, such as splits, reissues, barters and transfers between related parties, kept as transfers, not priced sales); 88 printed without units (the district's 2021–22 reports), listed in the download but not counted here. Prices are shown as printed, including a few nominal ones ($1–$100 per ton) that sit at the low end of some ranges. Download every transaction (CSV).

Offset rule notes
Federal offset sanctions (as of 2026-10-23). No 2-to-1 federal offset ratio is in force in the San Joaquin Valley as of October 23, 2026. Under Clean Air Act section 179(b)(2) a 2-to-1 ratio applies to new major sources and federal major modifications for NOx and VOC while an offset sanction is in effect; one applied here from May 2024 until EPA stayed it on October 25, 2024 (89 FR 85064). EPA conditionally approved the district's 2024 ozone contingency measure plan on June 4, 2026 (91 FR 33618) and the related sanction clocks remain stayed or deferred unless EPA converts that approval to a disapproval. District offset ratios under Rule 2201 are unchanged. Source: EPA, Status of Active Sanction Clocks, as of September 30, 2026.

How ERCs work in San Joaquin Valley APCD
Emission Reduction Credits are banked, district-certified reductions in NOx, ROG/VOC, PM10, SOx, or CO. Businesses building or expanding in the district may be required under New Source Review to purchase ERCs to offset new emissions before an air permit issues. Credits are generally usable only within San Joaquin Valley APCD (or its air basin with district board approval, Health & Safety Code §40709.6), which is why local scarcity sets the price. The district verifies reductions and records every transfer.
