arbcombo -- Update to the Sustainable Freight Pathways to Zero and Near-Zero Discussion Document

Posted: 02 Jul 2015 15:37:11
The Air Resources Board (ARB or Board) staff has posted an update
to the Sustainable Freight Pathways to Zero and Near-Zero
Discussion Document (Discussion Document).  The Discussion
Document describes the actions that respond to the Board’s
direction to identify, prioritize, and recommend specific
measures and actions to reduce health risk from diesel
particulate matter and meet the State’s air quality attainment
and climate needs 

During the April Board meeting, the Board heard an informational
update on the Discussion Document, considered testimony, and
adopted Resolution 15-22.  Moving forward, staff will work to
incorporate direction received via Board Resolution 15-22 and
anticipates coming back to the Board with an update on freight
activities in late 2015.

The update to the Discussion Document contains Resolution 15-22,
and a new Forward, which describes the clarifications made as a
part of the update, a link to the April 23 Board meeting
transcript, and a link to the written public comments on the
Discussion Draft.  The update to the Discussion Document is
available electronically on the Sustainable Freight Transport
Initiative website: http://www.arb.ca.gov/gmp/sfti/sfti.htm.

Background

On January 23, 2014, the Air Resources Board (ARB or Board)
adopted Resolution 14-2, which directed staff to engage all
interested stakeholders to provide input on the development of a
Sustainable Freight Strategy document. ARB staff is working with
the State's transportation and energy agencies, as well as its
economic development office, local partners, and stakeholders to
develop a comprehensive, integrated plan - the California
Sustainable Freight Strategy.  To inform that effort, the
Sustainable Freight: Pathways to Zero and Near-Zero Emissions
Discussion Document sets out ARB's vision of a clean freight
system, together with the immediate and near-term steps that ARB
will take to support use of zero and near-zero emission
technology.  Following public comment and Board direction at its
April 23, 2015 meeting, ARB has posted an updated Discussion
Document and will be focusing on the integrated Sustainable
Freight Strategy.  The full Strategy will include additional
measures to reduce emissions to meet State Implementation Plan
needs and other objectives.
