DIAMOND BAR, Calif.—The South Coast Air Quality Management District’s Residential Electric Lawn & Garden Equipment Rebate Program has been expanded to go beyond offsetting costs for lawn mowers, giving residents the opportunity to replace other gasoline-powered tools with electric models.

AQMD officials on Friday announced that the rebate program for residents in the South Coast Air Basin will now include leaf blowers, trimmers and chainsaws. Trimmers can include weed wackers, edgers, and brush cutters.
