At its September 22, 2016, public hearing, staff presented the
Air Resources Board with amendments to California's existing
Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas
Emissions (Regulation or MRR) (title 17, California Code of
Regulations, (CCR), section 95100 et seq.), to ensure that
reported greenhouse gas (GHG) data are accurate and fully support
the California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market Based
Compliance Mechanisms (title 17, California Code of Regulations,
section 95800 et seq.) (Cap-and-Trade Regulation). Staff also
presented revisions to ensure the data that are collected for
ARB's other climate change programs are complete, accurate, and
comply with the United States Environmental Protection Agency
Clean Power Plan. The amendments were developed pursuant to the
requirements of the California Global Warming Solutions Act of
2006, also known as Assembly Bill 32 (AB 32).
At its September 22, 2016, public hearing, the Board was informed
of proposed amendments including modifications to sections 95101,
95102, 95103, 95104, 95105, 95111, 95112, 95113, 95114, 95115,
95117, 95118, 95119, 95121, 95122, 95124, 95129, 95130, 95131,
95132, 95133, 95150, 95153, 95156, 95157, Appendix A, and
Appendix B, and proposed adoption of new sections 95160, 95161,
95162, and 95163, title 17, California Code of Regulations.
Consistent with this process, and in response to further
stakeholder contacts and staff research, staff has developed
additional proposed modifications to the proposed regulatory
text.
