enf -- Enforcement Activities -- SECOND PUBLIC WORKSHOP TO DISCUSS UPDATES TO CARB’s ENFORCEMENT POLICY
Posted: 26 Jun 2017 14:52:01
The California Air Resources Board (CARB or Board) invites you to participate in two public workshops to discuss upcoming updates to CARB’s enforcement policies. Our current penalty policy was adopted in 2011. CARB is updating its penalty policy partly to respond to AB 1685 (2016) which, among other things, increases the maximum penalties for mobile source violations and clarifies how those penalties can be applied. In addition to updating the current penalty policy to address AB1685, we are taking this opportunity to develop a more comprehensive enforcement policy. The same information will be presented at each workshop. The workshops will be held at the following locations and times: Date: July 10, 2017 Time: 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Location: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95812 Directions: https://goo.gl/maps/NCmBsDmGe672 Webcast: https://video.calepa.ca.gov/ Date: July 12, 2017 Time: 1:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. Location: California Air Resources Board 9528 Telstar Avenue Annex 4 Auditorium El Monte, California 91731 Directions: https://goo.gl/maps/DbghscUiwKw Webinar: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/7049332268061580289 Background The current penalty policy was developed in 2011 to comply with SB 1402 (2010) which required that CARB articulate the basis for determining penalties for violations discovered through enforcement actions. CARB is updating its current penalty policy partly to respond to AB 1685 (2016), which better aligns California’s maximum mobile source penalties with federal penalties. AB 1685 increases the maximum penalty for mobile source violations, and clarifies CARB’s ability to enforce multiple violations for each applicable mobile source. CARB is soliciting public input on potential impacts of AB 1685 and on developing a more comprehensive enforcement policy overall.
