The Air Resources Board (ARB or Board), in collaboration with our
training partner Future Perfect, will conduct ARB offset verifier
training on June 18-22 and June 25-29 in Sacramento, California
.
BACKGROUND:
The California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market-Based
Compliance Mechanisms Regulation was adopted by the California
Air Resources Board in October of 2011 and formally went into
effect January 1, 2012. Subarticles 13 and 14 of the regulation
describe the compliance offset program and the approval of Early
Action Offset Credits. Included in these subarticles is a
requirement for third-party verification of all GHG emission
reductions and GHG removal enhancements before any ARB offset
credits may be issued. Only ARB accredited offset verifiers may
provide offset verification services under the compliance offset
program. Accordingly, ARB has established a program to accredit
offset verifiers that meet the regulation's requirements.
To become an accredited offset verifier, the applicant must
submit a completed Verifier Application to ARB along with the
required documentation. Once the verifier applications have been
reviewed by ARB and determined to have the potential to meet the
minimum qualifications listed in the regulation, the verifier
applicant will be notified how to register for ARB approved
training courses.
ARB and Future Perfect will conduct training on June 18-22 and
June 25-29 in Sacramento, California. Future dates will be
announced when available.
Upon meeting the minimum qualifications listed in the regulation
the Executive Officer may accredit the offset verifiers.
For more information on the Compliance Offset Program, please
visit this webpage:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/offsets/offsets.htm
For any questions regarding the offset verifier application forms
or offset verifier training please contact Stephen Shelby in
ARB's Climate Change Program Evaluation Branch at (916)

arbcombo -- MAY 23 WEBINAR TO DESCRIBE CAP-AND-TRADE PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS FOR PUBLICLY OWNED UTILITIES
The Air Resources Board (ARB) will present a technical webinar at
the time noted below to describe details of the California
Cap-and-Trade Program—including dates, duties, and
obligations—that are pertinent to publicly owned utilities (POU).
This webinar is geared toward smaller POUs that may not be
familiar with the Cap-and-Trade Program.
DATE: MAY 23, 2012
TIME: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
WEBINAR: Details to follow
The presentation will be posted before the webinar and a
recording of the webinar will be available after the webinar at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/meetings/meetings.htm.
BACKGROUND:
The California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market-Based
Compliance Mechanisms Regulation (Cap-and-Trade Regulation) and
the revised Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse
Gas Emissions (Mandatory Reporting Regulation) were adopted by
the California Air Resources Board in October 2011 and formally
went into effect January 1, 2012.
The Mandatory Reporting Regulation (MRR) requires first
deliverers of electricity to report greenhouse gas emissions from
electricity generation and imported electricity. Additionally,
MRR requires all retail providers to report California retail
sales. Under the Cap-and-Trade Regulation, first deliverers of
electricity will have an obligation to surrender compliance
instruments (allowances and offset credits) equal to their
emissions (as reported under MRR) to ARB. Allowances will be
freely provided by ARB to utilities. There are restrictions on
the use of allowance value. These details will be covered in the
webinar. Staff will also describe key dates and obligations that
utilities must meet to comply with the regulations, as well as
provide information about how utilities participate in the
program. This presentation is targeted at smaller POUs that may
not be familiar with the provisions of the Cap-and-Trade
Program.

The Market Simulation Group (MSG) of the University of California
Energy Institute, working with the California Air Resources
Board, will hold a public meeting on Thursday, June 7, 2012 to
gather input from stakeholders that will inform an assessment of
design features of the California's cap-and-trade market for
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
DATE: Thursday, June 7, 2012
TIME: 9:00 am to 12:00 pm and 1:30 pm to 4:00 pm
LOCATION: Banatao Auditorium, Sutardja Dai Hall

The Market Simulation Group (MSG) of the University of California
Energy Institute, working with the California Air Resources
Board, will hold a public meeting at the above time and location
to gather input from stakeholders that will inform an assessment
of design features of the California's cap-and-trade market for
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The MSG is in the process of constructing an emission allowance
market simulation model based on the market structure, current
market rules and other fundamental aspects of the state's GHG
emission market. The model will be used to examine the potential
for market power and other strategic behavior in the GHG
emissions market.
The objective of this meeting is to identify factors that can
potentially detract from the efficient and competitive operation
of the GHG emission market. There are three major topics for
discussion: (1) aspects of the market design that could detract
from market efficiency, (2) incentives market participants may
have to not comply completely with the market rules, and (3) the
effectiveness of mechanisms and process for monitoring market
performance and compliance with the market rules.
This meeting is meant to provide a forum for discussion between
the MSG team and interested stakeholders about these topics.
Stakeholders are asked to submit a brief, (no more than two
pages) written summary of specific scenarios or design elements
that may detract from market efficiency, create incentives for
participants to fail to comply with market rules, or reduce the
effectiveness of the market monitoring process. Written
summaries should be submitted electronically to
marketsimulationgroup@berkeley.edu no later than May 25, 2012.
All submitted comments will be publicly posted on May 30.
All interested stakeholders are invited to attend.

arbcombo -- May 24th Public Consultation Meeting on Investment of Auction Funds from California Cap-and-Trade Program
Please save the date for a public consultation meeting hosted by
the California Air Resources Board (ARB) on approaches for
investing auction proceeds from California's cap-and-trade
program. Panelists will discuss how California can most
effectively invest these funds to support the goals of Assembly
Bill 32 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases, as well as encourage
long-term transformation to improve public health and develop a
clean energy economy. The public can share ideas about what
criteria and programs should be prioritized in the development of
an investment plan. ARB will soon be issuing a notice that
provides additional detail about the meeting and how to
participate.
DATE: May 24, 2012
TIME: 1:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. PDT
PLACE: California Environmental Protection Agency Building
Byron Sher Auditorium, 2nd floor
1001 I Street
Sacramento, California 95814
A live webcast of the meeting will be available at:
http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/?BDO=1
The meeting notice will be available soon at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/meetings/meetings.htm.
BACKGROUND:
The Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (Chapter 488, Statutes
of 2006 [AB 32, Núñez/Pavley]), requires California to reduce
statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and to
maintain and continue reductions beyond 2020. As part of this
effort, ARB has developed a cap-and-trade program. The program
establishes a statewide emissions limit on sources responsible
for 85 percent of greenhouse gases and creates a financial
incentive for investment in clean and efficient technologies.
Under the program, a portion of allowances required for
compliance will be auctioned. Strategic investment of auction
funds can further the purposes of AB 32 and deliver long-term
economic, environmental, and clean energy benefits. The first
auction is scheduled for November 2012 and auctions will be held
on a quarterly basis thereafter through 2020.
ACCOMMODATION:
To request special accommodations or language needs, please
contact Carol Wysong at 916.322.0289 as soon as possible, but no
later than 10 business days before the scheduled meeting.

the California Air Resources Board (ARB) on approaches for
investing auction proceeds from California's cap-and-trade
program. Panelists will discuss how California can most
effectively invest these funds to support the goals of Assembly
Bill 32 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases, as well as encourage
long-term transformation to improve public health and develop a
clean energy economy. The public can share ideas about what
criteria and programs should be prioritized in the development of
an investment plan. ARB will soon be issuing a notice that
provides additional detail about the meeting and how to
participate.
DATE: May 24, 2012
TIME: 1:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. PDT
PLACE: California Environmental Protection Agency Building
Byron Sher Auditorium, 2nd floor

The meeting notice will be available soon at:

BACKGROUND:
The Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (Chapter 488, Statutes
of 2006 [AB 32, Núñez/Pavley]), requires California to reduce
statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and to
maintain and continue reductions beyond 2020. As part of this
effort, ARB has developed a cap-and-trade program. The program
establishes a statewide emissions limit on sources responsible
for 85 percent of greenhouse gases and creates a financial
incentive for investment in clean and efficient technologies.
Under the program, a portion of allowances required for
compliance will be auctioned. Strategic investment of auction
funds can further the purposes of AB 32 and deliver long-term
economic, environmental, and clean energy benefits. The first
auction is scheduled for November 2012 and auctions will be held
on a quarterly basis thereafter through 2020.

arbcombo -- MAY 4 ARB PUBLIC WORKSHOP PRESENTATION POSTED TO DISCUSS REQUIREMENTS FOR FIRST DELIVERERS OF ELECTRICITY
The presentation is posted for the technical workshop at the time
noted below to discuss Cap-and-Trade Program compliance
requirements for the first deliverers of electricity, as directed
by the Board at the October 2011 Board Meeting, and reflected in
Resolution 11-32.
DATE: Friday, May 4, 2012
TIME: 10 am to 1 pm
LOCATION: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building
Sierra Hearing Room
1001 I Street
Sacramento, California 95814
WEBCAST INFORMATION:
This meeting will be webcast for those unable to attend in
person. The webcast can be accessed on the day of the workshop
at http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/. Information on
submitting questions or comments will be provided during the
webcast for remote participants. Staff's presentation and all
associated documents will be posted in advance of the workshop on
ARB's website at:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/meetings/meetings.htm.
BACKGROUND:
The California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market-Based
Compliance Mechanisms Regulation was adopted by the California
Air Resources Board in October 2011, and formally went into
effect January 1, 2012.
The Cap-and-Trade Regulation, along with the Regulation for the
Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions, has mechanisms
to determine the compliance obligation for electricity generators
and first jurisdictional delivers of electricity. These
regulations define the responsible party for imports, identify
appropriate uses for freely allocated allowances, identify the
compliance obligation for allowable sources of imported
electricity, and detail exemptions from a compliance obligation
for certain electricity transactions.
In Resolution 11-32, the Board directed ARB staff to work with
stakeholders and other state agencies on several issues related
to first jurisdictional deliverers of electricity. At this
workshop, staff will discuss the definition of "electricity
importer," resource shuffling, qualified export requirements and
calculation, and sales of electricity into the CAISO market.
