About Smog Free Clark County
Smog Free Clark County (SFCC) is a Clark County-funded program managed by the Department of Environment and Sustainability (DES), Division of Air Quality (DAQ). The program helps eligible Clark County residents with emissions-related vehicle repairs while supporting the County’s broader efforts to reduce air pollution and improve air quality throughout the region.
DES serves as the region’s air pollution control agency, with DAQ developing and implementing programs to meet air quality requirements, address community concerns, and protect the region’s quality of life. DAQ also develops State Implementation Plans (SIPs) that demonstrate how federal air quality standards will be achieved, maintained, and enforced. These efforts include addressing ground-level ozone and reducing vehicle emissions that contribute to ozone formation.
Vehicle emissions are an important part of DAQ’s air quality efforts. Its mobile sources programs address emissions from cars, trucks, buses, and other vehicles, as well as transportation-related air quality issues. SFCC complements these efforts by helping eligible residents complete necessary emissions-related repairs, supporting cleaner air while helping residents keep their vehicles on the road.

Program History
SFCC was developed in response to changes affecting Nevada’s classic vehicle registration program. For years, Nevada’s classic vehicle registration rules allowed qualifying limited-use vehicles to receive exemptions from regular emissions testing. As participation grew, Nevada lawmakers updated the requirements, including legislation enacted in 2021 that added a classic-vehicle insurance requirement. These changes meant that some vehicles previously registered under the classic vehicle program would need to return to regular registration and emissions testing.
SFCC was established to help affected Clark County residents navigate that transition by providing financial assistance for qualifying emissions-related repairs. Since then, the program has evolved to serve a broader range of vehicles and residents. Eligibility was expanded to include vehicles through model year 2010, increasing the number of Clark County residents who may be able to receive assistance.
Throughout the program’s development and expansion, Clark County DES and DAQ have played an ongoing role in funding and managing SFCC as part of the County’s broader efforts to address vehicle emissions and improve regional air quality.
Program Overview
Today, SFCC provides eligible Clark County residents with up to $975 toward qualifying emissions-related repairs for vehicles that fail a Smog Check. The program currently serves qualifying model year 1968–2010 vehicles. Residents must meet SFCC eligibility requirements and complete the program’s required process before repairs can be authorized.
How it works: Residents first determine whether they and their vehicle meet the program requirements. After eligibility is confirmed, SFCC helps guide participants through the process of receiving qualifying emissions-related repairs from participating repair facilities.
