The California Air Resources Board (ARB) has made available an
updated Linked California and Québec Cap-and-Trade Programs
Compliance Instrument Report (Report). This report summarizes the
number of compliance instruments held by California and Québec
entities in the Linked California and Québec Cap-and-Trade
Programs. The data are presented by instrument type and are
aggregated for each type of account.
The minor update reflects a correction to the total number of
compliance offset credits issued. The update reflects an
adjustment to remove one offset project issuance that was
inadvertently summed twice. The correction reduces the total
number of compliance instruments by less than one percent. The
changes are shown in underline/strikeout.
The Report includes all instruments issued in the Linked
California and Québec Cap-and-Trade Programs, regardless of the
issuing jurisdiction. The Report is updated on the second
business day of each calendar quarter and will be posted at:

BACKGROUND:
The California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market-Based
Compliance Mechanisms Regulation (Regulation) was adopted by the
California Air Resources Board in October of 2011, and formally
went into effect January 1, 2012. Entities subject to the
Regulation will have a compliance obligation for their greenhouse
gas emissions beginning on January 1, 2013. The Regulation was
amended in early 2013 to link the California and Québec programs
beginning January 1, 2014.
