Tuolumne County has no local leaf blower restrictions, but California AB 1346 banned the sale of new gas-powered small off-road engines including leaf blowers effective January 1, 2024. Existing gas blowers remain legal to use in the county.
Tuolumne County does not have a local leaf blower ordinance or noise restrictions on yard equipment. However, California AB 1346 (2021), implemented by CARB, banned the sale of new gas-powered leaf blowers and lawn mowers statewide effective January 1, 2024. Existing gas-powered equipment is grandfathered and may continue to be used. No county-level time-of-day restrictions exist for leaf blower use. In the rural and semi-rural communities of Tuolumne County (Sonora, Twain Harte, Columbia, Groveland), large lot sizes make leaf blower noise less of a concern than in dense urban areas.
No county-level leaf blower violations. Selling new gas-powered leaf blowers after January 1, 2024 violates state law (AB 1346/CARB regulations).
