(1)  In Article VI of the bill, amend the following rider to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's budget pattern:

7. Air Quality Planning. Amounts appropriated above include $6,000,500 for the biennium out of the Clean Air Account No. 151 in Strategy A.1.1, Air Quality Assessment and Planning, for air quality planning activities to reduce ozone in areas not designated as nonattainment areas during the 2018-19 biennium and as approved by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). [These areas may include Waco, El Paso, Beaumont, Austin, Corpus Christi, Granbury, Killeen-Temple, Longview-Tyler-Marshall, and Victoria.] These activities may be carried out through interlocal agreements. [and may include: identifying, inventorying, and monitoring of pollution levels; modeling pollution levels; and the identification, quantification, implementation of appropriate locally enforceable pollution reduction controls; and the submission of work plans to be submitted to the TCEQ.]

Expenditures of these funds are limited to: inventorying emissions, monitoring of pollution levels, air quality data analysis, air quality planning, tracking of regional air quality plans, and administration of the program. The TCEQ shall allocate $350,000 to each area and the remaining funds proportionally to each area with a population in excess of 350,000. Grants issued from appropriations identified in this rider should go toward local councils of government or other state political subdivision, and require that no more than 10 percent of the allocation be used for administrative purposes and prohibit the expenditure of the following: marketing and outreach activities, bicycle use programs, carpooling awareness, environmental awareness campaigns, and locally enforceable pollution reduction programs. The grant recipients shall channel the funds to those projects most useful for the State Implementation Plan (SIP).
