gmbond -- Proposition 1B/Goods Movement Notice of Funding Availability for Local and State Agencies
Posted: 06 Jul 2015 15:26:09
The Air Resources Board staff has posted the Proposition 1B Notice of Funding Availability for Fiscal Year 2015-16 (Year 5) funds. This notice solicits applications from eligible local and State agencies to administer funding to reduce emissions and health impacts from diesel equipment used to move freight in California’s four trade corridors. The notice describes the types of agencies eligible to apply, as well as the two-step process for registration and application submittal. Applications are due on August 7, 2015. Please see the Program website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/gmbond for more information. Background: California voters approved $1 billion in bond funding under Proposition 1B in 2006. The Proposition 1B: Goods Movement Emission Reduction Program is a partnership between the ARB and local agencies (like air districts and ports) to reduce air pollution emissions and health risk from freight movement along California’s trade corridors. ARB provides funding to eligible agencies; those agencies then offer financial incentives to owners of equipment used in freight movement to upgrade to cleaner technologies prior to regulatory requirements. If you have any questions, please call our Goods Movement Information Line at: (916) 44-GOODS (444-6637) or contact us via email at gmbond@arb.ca.gov. California is in a drought emergency.
