AB 32 Scoping Plan

Early Action Items

The staff of the Air Resources Board (ARB) are currently working on multiple sector specific greenhouse gas (GHG) activities. In order to better define, organize, and control major sources of GHG emissions, these sources have been grouped into "sectors." This page contains information regarding sector control measures, reduction strategies, voluntary protocols and other pertinent information.  Sector activities are a continuing process so this page will be updated and hyperlinked as new information becomes available.
