Low Carbon Fuel Standard - Methods 2A-2B Carbon Intensity Applications
This page last reviewed March 30, 2012
Purpose of this page: In keeping with provisions of Board Resolution 10-49, LCFS Regulatory Advisory 10-04, and LCFS Regulatory Advisory 10-04A, the proposed pathways posted to this site have been approved by ARB staff and are available for use on an interim basis by fuel providers and regulated parties. Use of most 2A/2B pathways, however, is subject to special conditions. All proposed pathways must be considered for final adoption at either a Board or an Executive Officer Hearing. Scheduled hearing dates, if any, are shown in the right-most column of the pathway table below. Rulemaking documents on all pathways scheduled for hearing are available on the LCFS Rulemaking pages. The proposed carbon intensity values associated with proposed pathways are subject to change during the rulemaking process. If the proposed carbon intensity is either disapproved or modified at hearing, the affected fuel providers may, optionally, continue using the interim value for a period of up to six months following the date of final pathway approval (or denial).
