Posted: 13 Jan 2016 14:33:19
The Air Resources Board (ARB) invites you to participate in a public workshop on the Fiscal Year (FY) 2016-17 Funding Plan for Low Carbon Transportation Investments and the Air Quality Improvement Program (AQIP). ARB staff will seek input on existing project categories being funded through these programs, potential new project categories, and a statutorily required long-term plan for light-duty vehicle incentives. The workshop will be held at the following time and place: Date: Wednesday, January 27, 2016 Time: 9:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Place: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building Coastal Hearing Room, 2nd Floor 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814 This workshop will also be webcast for participants unable to attend in person. Directions to Cal/EPA headquarters and public transit can be found at: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/EPAbldg/location.htm. A meeting notice for the workshop is posted at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/meetings/meetings.htm. For more information about the ARB’s Low Carbon Transportation Investments and AQIP, please go to: http://www.arb.ca.gov/aqip/. If you have questions regarding the workshop, please contact Andrew Panson at (916) 323-2809 or andrew.panson@arb.ca.gov. Background: Cap-and-Trade auction proceeds provide funding for ARB’s advanced technology, clean transportation incentive programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, expanding the types of projects ARB has funded through AQIP. These investments accelerate the transition to low carbon freight and passenger transportation, with an emphasis on low carbon freight and passenger transportation investments that benefit disadvantaged communities. The FY 2014-15 State budget appropriated $200 million to ARB for Low Carbon Transportation projects, and the FY 2015-16 State budget appropriated $95 million to ARB with additional funding still pending before the Legislature. ARB expects to receive another appropriation for Low Carbon Transportation investments from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund the FY 2016-17 State Budget. Hence, ARB staff intends to develop a joint Funding Plan for the Low Carbon Transportation and AQIP for the FY 2016-17 funding cycle as it has done in the past two budget cycles.
