System Service (CITSS) and participation in California's
Cap-and-Trade Program, Air Resources Board (ARB) staff are

have not yet completed user registration or account application.
The webinar, which will include a demonstration of the CITSS and
a question and answer period for stakeholders, will be conducted
on February 27th from 9:30 a.m. to 12:00 PM PT. Future training

BACKGROUND
California's Cap-and-Trade Program became effective on January 1,
2012, with an enforceable compliance obligation beginning January
1, 2013.
The CITSS is a market tracking system that supports the
implementation of GHG cap-and-trade programs for California and
other jurisdictions. The CITSS is the record of ownership of
compliance instruments; records information related to accounts;
enables and records compliance instrument transfers; facilitates
compliance verification; and supports market oversight through
the collection of relevant information. The CITSS was initially
released in July 2012 for user registration and account
application. User registration is required in the CITSS prior to
applying for entity compliance instrument accounts. Compliance
instrument accounts must be established before an entity can hold
allowances or participate in GHG allowance auctions or reserve
sales.
For CITSS related questions, WCI, Inc. has established a Help
Desk which can be reached at help@wci-citss.org or by phone at
1-866-682-7561.
