On December 29, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern
District of California issued several rulings in the federal
lawsuits challenging the low carbon fuel standard (LCFS).   One
of the court’s rulings preliminarily enjoins the Air Resources
Board (ARB or Board) from enforcing the regulation during the
pendency of the litigation.  While ARB intends to appeal these
rulings and to seek an order staying the preliminary injunction,
as long as the injunction remains in effect, ARB will respect the
Court’s ruling and withhold enforcement of the LCFS requirements.
 To the extent that stakeholders have requested additional fuel
pathways or additional or revised biofuel producer registrations,
or the Board has requested modifications to the regulation, ARB
will continue its stakeholder and rulemaking processes.  This
includes the posting of these updated carbon intensities and
other information regarding biofuel producers registered in the
LCFS Biofuel Producer Registration Program.
The California Air Resources Board (ARB) staff has updated carbon
intensities (CIs) and other information regarding biofuel
producers registered in the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS)
Biofuel Producer Registration Program.  The updated information
can be found at the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) website at
the address:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/reportingtool/registeredfacilityinfo.htm

The updates include:  the addition of two biodiesel facilities
(one to the “complete” registration list and one to the “physical
pathway pending” registration list); adding fuel pathways to
three previously registered facilities; and approval of one
facility’s physical pathway demonstration so that the
registration, previously identified as “physical pathway
pending,” is now “complete.” Company name and facility ID changes
for four Brazilian ethanol facilities on the “physical pathway
pending” list are also included.  The “carbon intensity pending”
list is unchanged.

General information about the LCFS program can be found at the
LCFS website at the address:

The Low Carbon Fuel Standard, a regulation to reduce the carbon
intensity of fuels sold in California ten percent by 2020, is
designed to help clean the air, protect the environment, and
drive the development of clean, low-carbon fuels to improve
California's energy security and energy independence.
