Posted: 16 Mar 2016 14:34:17
The Air Resources Board (ARB) invites you to participate in a
roundtable discussion for the Opportunities for Overcoming
Barriers to Zero and Near-Zero Emission Transportation Options
study. ARB staff will provide an overview of the planned
development of the study, including timing and availability of
resources and the continued public process, and seek input on the
main barriers low-income consumers face to access zero and
near-zero emission transportation options.

The roundtable will be held at the following time and place:

Date:  Wednesday, March 30, 2016
Time:  9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Background:  In October 2015, Governor Jerry Brown signed Senate
Bill (SB) 350 (De León, Chapter 547, Statutes of 2015) which
established world-leading energy efficiency and renewable energy
goals for California.  This bill also highlighted the need for a
better understanding of the barriers faced by low-income
consumers to access zero and near-zero emission transportation
options.  SB 350 charged ARB, in consultation with the California
Energy Commission and other relevant State and local agencies and
the public, with developing and publishing a study on or before
January 1, 2017, outlining the barriers faced by low-income
consumers, including those in disadvantaged communities, to
access zero and near-zero emission transportation options.  The
study will also include recommendations on how to reduce those
barriers and increase access.  

To address the statutory requirements, ARB will develop a study
laid out as a guidance document that paves the way for further
research on zero and near-zero emission transportation options in
low-income and disadvantaged communities and provides a “road
map” for the future with policy recommendations.
