The California Air Resources Board (ARB) posted a 2011
cap-and-trade activities schedule on the ARB website. 

This schedule provides an overview of the current plans for
regulatory and implementation activities during 2011, including
public workshops, planned discussion topics, and expected release
of regulatory changes.

The cap-and-trade regulation will provide a fixed limit on
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the sources responsible for
about 85 percent of California’s total GHG emissions.
Cap-and-trade will control GHGs from major emission sources
(“covered entities”) by setting a firm limit (the “cap”) on GHG
emissions while employing market mechanisms to cost-effectively
achieve the emission reduction goals. The cap for GHG emissions
from major sources would commence in 2012 and decline over time,
achieving emissions reductions throughout the program’s duration.
The cap-and-trade regulation supports the implementation of AB
32, the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. Under AB
32, ARB has developed numerous measures supported by the
regulation to reduce GHG emissions and help clean the air,
protect the environment and drive innovative new solutions to
clean energy.
