BACKGROUND:
Assembly Bill (AB) 32, the California Global Warming Solutions
Act of 2006, requires California to reduce statewide GHG
emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and to maintain and continue
reductions beyond 2020. As part of this effort, the Air
Resources Board (ARB) has developed a Cap-and-Trade program that
limits statewide emissions from sources responsible for 85
percent of greenhouse gases and creates a financial incentive for
clean and efficient technologies. Under the program, a portion
of the allowances required for compliance are auctioned. The
State portion of the proceeds from these auctions will be used to
fund projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, consistent with
State law.
In September 2012, the Legislature passed and Governor Brown
signed into law two bills – AB 1532 (Pérez, Chapter 807) and
Senate Bill (SB) 535 (De León, Chapter 830) – that together
establish a framework for developing an investment plan for
projects and programs to be funded with Cap-and-Trade auction
proceeds. SB 535 further requires that 25 percent of the
proceeds that will be expended benefit disadvantaged communities
and at least 10 percent of the proceeds expended be invested in
projects located within those communities.
The Department of Finance (Finance), in consultation with the ARB
and other state entities, will develop and submit to the
Legislature a three-year investment plan for the auction
proceeds. The investment plan will identify the State's
greenhouse gas reduction goals and priority programs for
investment of proceeds to support achievement of those goals.
Funding will be appropriated to State agencies by the Legislature
and Governor through the annual Budget Act, consistent with the
plan.

About This Page
These animals are unique, they all have a rust-colored ears, hooves and black spotted muzzle. They have a spot in the age of two, and gradually spread to the neck and shoulder.
There was no case to calves in the herd were born of a different color. It is believed that the white cattle never hybridized with any livestock. Therefore, it is different from the thousands of other members of the cattle. Analyses showed that the blood of these animals is different from the rest of the blood of cattle in Western Europe.
The bulls horns grow back and bent outwards, and the cows are folded back. Shape of the skull and horns are the same as the rounds - wild cattle that have died, but whose images can be seen in Europe in the ancient cave paintings. Some experts believe the direct descendants of white cows tours, once roamed the British Isles. However, their origin remains unclear.

arbcombo -- Request for Nominations for Appointment to the Air Resources Board Environmental Justice Advisory Committee
The California Air Resources Board (ARB) is seeking nominations
from environmental justice organizations and community groups for
representatives to serve on the Environmental Justice Advisory
Committee.
Pursuant to Assembly Bill 32 (Chapter 488, Statutes of 2006), ARB
convened the Environmental Justice Advisory Committee (EJAC or
Committee) in 2007 to advise it on the development of
California's Climate Change Scoping Plan
(http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/scopingplan/document/scopingplandocument.htm)
and other matters pertinent to the implementation of AB 32.
ARB is required to develop an updated Scoping Plan to bring to
the Board by December 2013. The plan will focus on strategies to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve additional
co-benefits both in the near-term and beyond 2020, including in
disadvantaged communities. Sectors of focus will include
transportation, fuels, and infrastructure; energy generation,
transmission, and efficiency; waste; water; and agriculture. It
will also focus on how best to align California's greenhouse gas
emission reduction strategies with other state policy priorities
like air quality, goods movement, sustainable communities, and
clean energy.
ARB is reconvening the EJAC to advise on the development of the
updated Scoping Plan. Staff expects the EJAC to meet twice during
the spring and summer of 2013 to discuss the Scoping Plan prior

arbcombo -- Status on Activities to Support the Development of Biomethane Standards
The purpose of this list serve notice is to provide interested
parties with an update on the status of efforts to develop
biomethane standards pursuant to AB 1900, and to invite
stakeholders to provide input to the process. This list serve
notice was originally sent to the "biogas" list serve on December
21st, 2012 and is now being forwarded to other list servers that
may have members potentially interested in this subject matter.
AB 1900, authored by Assemblyman Mike Gatto, requires the
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to develop
standards for constituents in biogas to protect human health and
pipeline integrity and safety. In support of the CPUC standards
development efforts, the Office of Environmental Health Hazard
Assessment (OEHHA) and the Air Resources Board (ARB), in
consultation with other State agencies, are to undertake certain
actions. Specifically, OEHHA is tasked with compiling a list of
constituents of concern (constituents) found in biogas that could
pose a health risk and that are at levels that significantly
exceed the concentrations of those constituents in natural gas.
OEHHA is also to determine health protective levels for these
constituents. ARB is tasked with developing realistic exposure
scenarios and identifying the associated health risk to utility
workers and gas end users; determining the concentrations of
these constituents in biogas necessary to protect public health;
and identifying monitoring, testing, reporting, and recordkeeping
requirements necessary to ensure that health protective levels
are maintained.

arbcombo -- Availability of the Updated 2013 Auction Reserve Price Notice
The California Air Resources Board will make available the
Updated 2013 Annual Auction Reserve Price Notice. The updated
notice specifies the 2013 Auction Reserve Price and the final
number of allowances to be auctioned in 2013 for the quarterly
auctions as part of the Current Auction and Advance Auction.
This annual budget update does NOT change the amount of 2013
vintage allowances for sale in the February 19 auction.
The notice will be published on the ARB website at 12:00 pm
Pacific Time on Tuesday, January 15, 2013.
The 2013 Annual Auction Reserve Price Notice posted on December
3, 2012, included a 2013 auction budget that included State-owned
allowances and a partial accounting of the number of allowances
to be consigned by electricity distribution utilities. Some
public owned utilities (POUs) were provided the flexibility to
defer providing direction until January 1, 2013, on how to
distribute their allowances between their Compliance and Limited
Use Holding Accounts. ARB has now received direction from all
POUs on how to distribute their allowances and the notice has
been updated to reflect the final annual auction budget for 2013
vintage allowances.
The notice will be posted on ARB's website at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/auction/auction.htm.
If you have any questions on the Updated 2013 Annual Auction

The Air Resources Board (ARB or Board), in collaboration with our
training partner Future Perfect, is pleased to announce the first
2013 date for ARB offset verifier training will be April 22-26 in
Sacramento, California.
The California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market-Based
Compliance Mechanisms Regulation was adopted by the California
Air Resources Board in October of 2011 and went into effect
January 1, 2012. Subarticles 13 and 14 of the regulation
describe the compliance offset program and the approval of Early
Action Offset Credits. Included in these sections is a
requirement for third-party verification of all GHG emission
reductions and GHG removal enhancements before any ARB offset
credits may be issued. Only ARB accredited offset verifiers may
provide offset verification services under the compliance offset
program. Accordingly, ARB has established a program to accredit
offset verifiers that meet the regulation's requirements.
To become an accredited offset verifier, the applicant must
submit a completed Verifier Application to ARB along with the
required documentation. Once the verifier applications have been
reviewed by ARB and determined to have the potential to meet the
minimum qualifications listed in the regulation, the verifier
applicant will be notified how to register for ARB approved
training courses.
Upon meeting the minimum qualifications listed in the regulation
the Executive Officer may accredit the offset verifiers.
For more information on the Compliance Offset Program, please
