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.
