Air Resources Board (ARB) staff has posted a discussion document
for the April 4, 2016 public workshop on the development of the
FY 2016-17 Funding Plan for Low Carbon Transportation and Fuels
Investments and AQIP. The document can be found at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/meetings/040416_discussion_doc.pdf.
The workshop presentation will be posted the morning of the
workshop.
The workshop will be held at the following time and place:
Date: Monday, April 4, 2016
Time: 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Place: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building
Coastal Hearing Room, 2nd Floor
1001 I Street
Sacramento, California 95814
This workshop will also be webcast for participants unable to
attend in person. The broadcast can be accessed on the day of
the workshop at http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/. For more
information about ARB's Low Carbon Transportation and Fuels
Investments and AQIP, please go to http://www.arb.ca.gov/aqip/.
If you have questions regarding the workshop, please contact
Andrew Panson at (916) 323-2809 or andrew.panson@arb.ca.gov.
Background: Cap-and-Trade auction proceeds provide funding for
ARB's advanced technology, clean transportation incentive
programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, expanding the types
of projects ARB has funded through AQIP. These investments
accelerate the transition to low carbon freight and passenger
transportation, with an emphasis on low carbon freight and
passenger transportation investments that benefit disadvantaged
communities. AQIP is a mobile source incentive program that
focuses on reducing criteria pollutant and diesel particulate
emissions with concurrent reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.
The Governor's proposed FY 2016-17 Budget would direct $500
million for ARB to continue Low Carbon Transportation
investments, including $40 million for very low carbon fuel
production incentives. The Governor's proposed Budget also
includes $28.6 million for AQIP projects.

arbcombo -- Notice for April 5, 2016 Cap-and-Trade Workshop on Cost-Containment and Sector-Based Offsets
Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) staff invites you to
participate in a public workshop on April 5, 2016 to discuss
potential amendments to the Cap-and-Trade Regulation related to
cost-containment mechanisms for the post-2020 program and to
continue discussing the potential for including international,
sector-based offset credits in the Cap-and-Trade Program.
Tuesday, April 5, 2016 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Byron Sher Auditorium
CalEPA Headquarters Building
1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814
Webcast: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/Broadcast/
Purpose of Workshop
The April 5, 2016 workshop will continue the public process to
develop potential 2016 amendments to the Cap-and-Trade Regulation
(Regulation). ARB staff will present ideas related to
cost-containment mechanisms that will help inform potential
changes effective for the post-2020 program. Areas of discussion
on cost-containment include the existing Allowance Price
Containment Reserve (APCR) and how any allowances remaining in
the existing APCR could be treated post-2020, and how an APCR
could be designed in the post-2020 program, as well as potential
other topics. Please note that staff is not proposing any
changes to the 8% quantitative usage limit for offset credits.
During the workshop, staff will also continue the discussion to
evaluate the potential to include international, sector-based
offset credits issued by subnational programs designed to reduce
emissions from tropical deforestation and forest degradation
within the Cap-and-Trade Regulation. Topics included for this
workshop would include potential approaches and criteria for
managing reversal and leakage risk, offset tracking registry
requirements, and verification requirements.
The tentative schedule for the April 5 workshop is as follows:
10:00 am – 12:00 pm Cap-and-Trade Cost Containment Review and
Ideas for the Future
1:00 pm –2:00 pm Reversal and Leakage Risk for Sector-Based
Offset Programs
2:00 pm – 4:00 pm Offset Tracking Registry and Verification
Requirements for Potential Linked Sector-Based Offset Programs
Following the workshop, stakeholders will have an opportunity to
provide written comments during an informal comment period which
will conclude at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on Friday, April 22,
2016.
Comments may be submitted at
https://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/meetings/meetings.htm.
Presentation slides for this workshop will be posted at 9:00 am

arbcombo -- April 4, 2016: Environmental Justice Advisory Committee Meeting
The AB 32 Environmental Justice Advisory Committee (EJAC) will be
meeting on April 4, 2016 from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm (PDT) at the
Brawley Public Library Del Rio Branch, located at 1501 I Street,
in Brawley, California.
The meeting notice and agenda are posted at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/ejac/meetings/meetings.htm
Background:
The California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, (AB 32)
calls for the Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) to convene a
global warming environmental justice advisory committee, to

pertinent matter in implementing AB 32. The advisory committee is
comprised of representatives from communities in the State with
the most significant exposure to air pollution, including, but
not limited to, communities with minority populations or
low-income populations, or both.
The Board appointed the first environmental justice advisory
committee to advise it on the Initial Scoping Plan and other
climate change programs. To advise the Board on the First Update
to the Climate Change Scoping Plan, ARB reconvened a new EJAC on
March 21, 2013. To replace members that either changed positions
and had to resign from the Committee or were unable to serve, the
Board appointed four new members on September 25, 2015.
The EJAC will advise the Board on the development of the 2030
Target Scoping Plan, per Governor Brown's Executive Order
B-30-15. Committee meetings are open to the public and include a
public comment period.

arbcombo -- Aliso Canyon Mitigation Plan
ARB has released a draft mitigation plan for the Aliso Canyon
natural gas storage facility and is seeking public input.
The document sets forth the California Air Resources Board's (ARB
or Board) recommended approach to achieve full mitigation of the
climate impacts of the Aliso Canyon natural gas leak. This leak
at a Southern California Gas (SoCalGas) natural gas storage
facility in Los Angeles County emitted almost 100,000 tons of
methane, a potent greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere from
October 2015 to February 2016. ARB estimates that the leak added
approximately 20 percent to statewide methane emissions over its
duration.
The draft mitigation report is available on the ARB website
(http://www.arb.ca.gov/research/aliso_canyon/draft_aliso_canyon_mitigation_program_03142016.pdf).
Comments can be submitted online
(http://www.arb.ca.gov/lispub/comm2/bcsubform.php?listname=alisompdraft-ws&comm_period=1)
and are due by March 24th, by 5:00 PM Pacific Time.

arbcombo -- Notice of March 29, 2016, public workshop on Cap-and-Trade Regulation post-2020 emissions caps and allowance allocation
Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) staff invites you to
participate in a public workshop on March 29, 2016, to discuss
potential amendments to the Cap-and-Trade Regulation related to
establishing post-2020 emissions caps and allowance allocation.
Tuesday, March 29, 2016 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Byron Sher Auditorium
CalEPA Headquarters Building
1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814
Webcast: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/Broadcast/
Purpose of Workshop
The March 29, 2016, workshop will continue the public process to
develop potential 2016 amendments to the Cap-and-Trade Regulation
(Regulation). ARB staff will present options for establishing
post-2020 caps on emissions within the Cap-and-Trade Regulation,
as well as a proposal for post-2020 allowance allocation.
Allowance allocation types to be discussed include industrial,
electrical distribution utility, natural gas supplier, water,
legacy contract, and university and public service facility
allocation. Staff will also discuss the post-2020 Voluntary
Renewable Electricity program. In the context of industrial
allocation, staff will indicate sectors for which staff is
considering modification to product-based benchmarks for the
third compliance period to more accurately represent these
sectors. (Staff does not plan to go into details on each
potential change in the workshop, but is scheduling
sector-specific meetings to discuss details.) Finally, staff
will discuss a proposal for changes to the Mandatory Greenhouse
Gas Reporting Regulation related to product-based benchmarks in
the industrial sector. Industrial sector emissions leakage
studies and assistance factors will not be discussed at this
workshop, but will be addressed at a later workshop.
Following the workshop, stakeholders will have an opportunity to
provide written comments during an informal comment period which
will conclude at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on Friday, April 15,
2016. Comments may be submitted at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/lispub/comm/bclist.php. Presentation
slides for this workshop will be posted at 9:00 am on March 28,

arbcombo -- Notice for March 22, 2016 Cap-and-Trade Workshop on Sector-Based Offsets
Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) staff invites you to
participate in a public workshop on March 22, 2016 to discuss the
potential for including international, sector-based offset
credits in the Cap-and-Trade Program.
Tuesday, March 22, 2016 10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Byron Sher Auditorium
CalEPA Headquarters Building
1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814
Webcast: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/Broadcast/
Purpose of Workshop
The March 22, 2016 workshop will continue the public process to
evaluate the potential to include international, sector-based
offset credits issued by subnational programs designed to reduce
emissions from tropical deforestation and forest degradation
within the Cap-and-Trade Regulation. This technical workshop
will focus on potential approaches and criteria for assessing
crediting pathways and program scope, jurisdiction
business-as-usual reference levels, methods for developing
crediting baselines, and evaluating reporting requirements. In
preparation of the March 22, 2016 workshop, ARB staff will
release a short white paper describing these technical elements
and potential approaches. This white paper will be made
available at noon on Friday, March 18, 2016 at
www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/sectorbasedoffsets/sectorbasedoffsets.htm.
An earlier staff white paper released on October 19, 2015 in
preparation of an October 28, 2015 workshop includes additional
descriptions of each of these topics.
The tentative schedule for the March 22 workshop is as follows:
10:00 am – 11:00 pm Crediting Pathway and Program Scope
11:00 am – 12:00 pm Reference Levels
1:00 pm – 3:00 pm Crediting Baselines and Reporting Requirements
Following the workshop, stakeholders will have an opportunity to
provide written comments during an informal comment period which
will conclude at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on Friday, April 8,
2016.
Comments may be submitted at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/lispub/comm/bclist.php. Presentation
slides for this workshop will be posted at 8:00 am on March 22,
2016, at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/meetings/meetings.htm. All
interested stakeholders are invited to attend. A live webcast of
the workshop will be available at
http://www.calepa.ca.gov/Broadcast/. Remote participants may
e-mail questions during the workshop to
auditorium@calepa.ca.gov.
Additional technical workshops are tentatively scheduled for
April 5, 2016 (covering reversals, registries, and verification)
and April 28, 2016 (covering linkage process and social and
environmental safeguards). A listserv notice will be issued to
announce each of these meetings once details and topics become
final.
Background
Cap-and-Trade Regulation
ARB first formally adopted the Regulation in October 2011. The
Board has subsequently approved limited amendments to the
Regulation in June 2012, October 2013, April 2014, September
2014, and most recently June 2015. ARB staff is developing staff
proposals for 2016 amendments that will seek to improve Program
efficiency and chart post-2020 implementation of the Program.
California first recognized the importance of addressing
emissions from the deforestation and degradation of tropical
forests in the 2008 AB 32 Scoping Plan. California further
recognized this importance through the inclusion of general
placeholder provisions within the Cap-and-Trade Regulation
adopted in 2011 and later in the first update to the AB 32
Scoping Plan in 2014. ARB staff has continued to evaluate these
types of programs, including through California's membership in
the Governors' Climate and Forests Task Force, a coalition of 29
subnational jurisdictions seeking to advance jurisdictional
programs designed to promote low emissions development and
reduced emissions from deforestation and land use, and to link
these activities with greenhouse gas compliance programs and
other pay-for-performance opportunities. More information about
ARB staff's ongoing evaluation of tropical forestry programs can
be found here:

arbcombo -- March 23, 2016: Public Workshop on the Natural and Working Lands Sector to Inform Development of the 2030 Target Scoping Plan Update
California Department of Food and Agriculture, California Natural
Resources Agency, California Air Resources Board, and Governor's
Office of Planning and Research are jointly hosting a public
workshop on the Natural and Working Lands sector on March 23,
2016. This workshop will support the process to update the AB 32
Scoping Plan to reflect California's goal to reduce statewide
greenhouse gas emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, as
directed in Executive Order B-30-15. Prior to the jointly-hosted
Natural and Working Lands sector public workshop, the Forest
Climate Action Team (FCAT) will also hold a separate public
workshop to discuss recent progress towards development of the
Forest Carbon Plan. The FCAT workshop will be held from 9:00am
to 12:00pm at the same location. The announcement for the FCAT
Forest Carbon Plan public workshop can be found here:
http://www.fire.ca.gov/fcat/.
A week prior to the jointly-hosted workshop, Agencies will post a
Discussion Paper containing initial ideas that will be considered
and evaluated as part of California's 2030 climate change vision
and strategy for the Natural and Working Lands sector. The
Discussion Paper will also include additional topics and
questions for stakeholder review and comment both during and
after the public workshop. The Discussion Paper will be posted
here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/scopingplan/scopingplan.htm.
Both meetings are open to the public and full participation by
all parties is encouraged:
DATE: Wednesday, March 23, 2016
TIME: 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm
PLACE: CalEPA Headquarters Building
Byron Sher Auditorium
1001 I Street
Sacramento, California 95814
Background
This Natural and Working Lands sector workshop is part of the
public process to update the Scoping Plan to reflect the
Governor's Executive Order B-30-15, which establishes a mid-term
GHG reduction target for California of 40 percent below 1990
levels by 2030. All state agencies with jurisdiction over
sources of GHG emissions were directed to implement measures to
achieve reductions of GHG emissions to meet the 2030 and 2050
targets. ARB was directed to update the AB 32 Scoping Plan to
reflect the 2030 target, and therefore, is moving forward with
the update process. The mid-term target is critical to help
frame the suite of policy measures, regulations, planning
efforts, and investments in clean technologies and infrastructure
needed to continue driving down emissions.
In an effort to further the vision of AB 32, Governor Brown
identified key climate change strategy pillars in his January
2015 inaugural address. The pillars recognize that several major
areas of the California economy will need to reduce emissions to
meet the 2030 greenhouse gas emissions target. One of the key
pillars identified by Governor Brown was to ensure that State
agencies are managing farm and rangelands, forests and wetlands
so they can store carbon.
Environmental Analysis
This workshop will serve as a scoping meeting as required by the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to CEQA and
ARB's Certified Regulatory Program (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14,
§15251(d); Cal. Code Regs., tit. 17, §§ 60000–60008), staff is
reviewing the Proposed 2030 Target Scoping Plan Update to
determine if the proposed project will result in any potentially
significant adverse environmental impacts. Staff will provide an
overview of ARB's process for preparing the environmental
analysis (EA) and its content. Staff welcomes public input at
the workshop on the appropriate scope and content of the EA at
the beginning of our process, including the reasonably
foreseeable methods of compliance with the Proposed 2030 Target
Scoping Plan Update, the potential significant adverse impacts
associated with the methods of compliance, potential feasible
mitigation measures, and feasible alternatives to the proposal
that could reduce or eliminate any significant adverse impacts.
A Draft EA will be released for a 45-day public review and
comment period with the proposed Draft 2030 Target Scoping Plan
Update in early Fall of 2016. Comments received at this public
workshop will be considered when preparing the CEQA document.
A copy of the presentation and other workshop materials will be
available on Scoping Plan webpage at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/scopingplan/scopingplan.htm.
Materials will be posted by March 23, 2016, at 8:30 a.m.
All interested stakeholders are invited to attend. A live
webcast of both of the workshops will be available at:
http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/?BDO=1.
In addition, ARB is collecting public comments on the workshop
material at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/scopingplan/scopingplan.htm.
Remote participants will be able to submit e-mail questions
during the workshop at an address provided in the presentation.
Please note that Spanish translation services will be provided

carrying live Spanish translation of the workshop will be
available on-site for check out by any member of the public.

arbcombo -- Public Workshop on Fiscal Year 2016-17 Low Carbon Transportation and Fuels Investments and AQIP Funding Plan.
The Air Resources Board (ARB) invites you to participate in a
public workshop on the FY 2016-17 Funding Plan for Low Carbon
Transportation and Fuels Investments and AQIP. ARB staff will
seek input on draft funding allocations, project categories, and
project criteria for these programs and a statutorily required
long-term plan for light-duty vehicle incentives.
The workshop will be held at the following time and place:
Date: Monday, April 4, 2016
Time: 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Place: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building
Coastal Hearing Room, 2nd Floor
1001 I Street
Sacramento, California 95814
A meeting notice for the workshop is posted at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/meetings/meetings.htm.
This workshop will also be webcast for participants unable to
attend in person. The broadcast can be accessed on the day of
the workshop at http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/.
Directions to Cal/EPA headquarters and public transit can be
found at: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/EPAbldg/location.htm.
For more information about ARB's Low Carbon Transportation and
Fuels Investments and AQIP, please go to:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/aqip/.
If you have questions regarding the workshop, please contact
Andrew Panson at (916) 323-2809 or andrew.panson@arb.ca.gov.
Background: Cap-and-Trade auction proceeds provide funding for
ARB's advanced technology, clean transportation incentive
programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, expanding the types
of projects ARB has funded through AQIP. These investments
accelerate the transition to low carbon freight and passenger
transportation, with an emphasis on low carbon freight and
passenger transportation investments that benefit disadvantaged
communities. AQIP is a mobile source incentive program that
focuses on reducing criteria pollutant and diesel particulate
emissions with concurrent reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.
The Governor's proposed FY 2016-17 Budget would direct $500
million for ARB to continue Low Carbon Transportation
investments, including $40 million for low carbon fuel production
incentives. The Governor's proposed Budget also includes $28.6
million for AQIP projects.
