Emission Reduction Plan for Ports and Goods Movement
This page last reviewed August 31, 2011
The Air Resources Board (ARB) approved the 2006 Emission Reduction Plan for Ports and Goods Movement (Plan) in California. The Plan is an essential component of California's effort to reduce community exposure to air pollution and to meet new federal air quality standards for ozone and fine particulate matter (PM2.5). This effort is also the next step in implementing the Goods Movement Action Plan developed by the California Business, Transportation and Housing Agency and the California Environmental Protection Agency.
