arbcombo -- Availability of 2030 Target Scoping Plan Discussion Draft

2030 Target Scoping Plan Discussion Draft.

The 2030 Target Scoping Plan Discussion Draft (Discussion Draft)
provides the staff's current thoughts on how to achieve the
State's SB 32 climate goal of reducing greenhouse gases of at
least 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. The draft Scoping
Plan Scenario and alternatives included in the Discussion Draft
are based on materials presented at previous Scoping Plan
interagency workshops and ARB Board meetings. The Discussion
Draft is not the complete 2030 Target Scoping Plan. Some
analyses, such as those newly required by AB 197, and economic
and environmental analyses are not included at this time. The
intent of this Discussion Draft is to elicit feedback and to help
refine the overall approach and strategies to be analyzed for
achieving the 2030 target. Comments received on this Discussion
Draft will inform the development of a comprehensive Proposed
2030 Target Scoping Plan (Proposed Scoping Plan) that ARB expects
to release in January 2017 for public review. The Proposed
Scoping Plan will include the full environmental analysis,
economic analysis, AB 197 analyses, and supporting technical
appendices.


ARB welcomes broad participation among stakeholders, experts, and
interested parties throughout this process. Comments from
stakeholders are requested by December 16, 2016 at 5:00 PM PST.


The 2030 Target Scoping Plan Discussion Draft will be made

Background

This Discussion Draft is part of the public process to update the
AB 32 Scoping Plan to reflect Governor's Executive Order B-30-15
and Senate Bill 32, which establish 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. ARB and other
State agencies are identifying the suite of programs,
regulations, incentives, and supporting actions needed to
continue driving down emissions and ensure we are on a trajectory
to meet our mid- and long-term climate goals.
