REBRAC
Regional Environmental Business Resource and Assistance Centers,
(REBRAC), coordinate statewide programs and services designed to
mitigate the impact of environment, health and safety compliance
regulations. These regulations specify the manner in which
businesses may handle, store, use and dispose of hazardous
materials, as well as, regulate air and water pollution, traffic
congestion and help minimize the production of waste. The
Centers assist in the development of model Certificate and
Associate degree programs in environmental, health and safety
technologies.
The Centers provide five basic services:
-
Training in EH&S

Compliance counseling
-
Applied technology counseling (including energy
conservation)
-
Financial counseling

EH&S audit assistance

Organization Profile
- A Regional Environmental Business Resource and Assistance
Center (REBRAC) is a not for profit organization conceived and
funded by the California Community College Chancellor’s Office
Economic Development Program (ED>Net). Its function is to serve
business needs, within a designated region, in environmental
compliance and resource conservation. Bakersfield College was
awarded a grant in 1998 to start up a REBRAC that would provide
assistance, education, and training to businesses in the
southern San Joaquin Valley. This REBRAC was named the Central
Valley REBRAC, and is located in Economic Development Region 5.
There are currently six REBRACs in the state. They are located
