Robert A. Harley Ph.D. University of California, Berkeley Thursday, June 18, 2015 1:30 pm, PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California The effects of heavy-duty drayage truck fleet modernization and diesel particle filter (DPF) retrofits were examined through measurements of truck emissions at the Port of Oakland, California. Pollutant concentrations were measured at high time resolution in the exhaust plumes of more than a thousand drayage trucks as they drove toward the Port on a major access road.

DATE: September 24, 2015 TIME: 9:00 a.m. PLACE: California Environmental Protection Agency Air Resources Board Byron Sher Auditorium 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814 Directions: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/EPABldg/location.htm To provide your comments before the Board meeting and to view the Notice, please go to: http://www.arb.ca.gov/lispub/comm/bclist.php Interested members of the public may present comments orally or in writing at the meeting and may provide comments by postal mail or by electronic submittal before the meeting. To be considered by the Board, written comments not physically submitted at the meeting must be received no later than 12:00 noon, September 21, 2015, and addressed to the following: Postal mail: Clerk of the Board, Air Resources Board 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California 95814 Electronic submittal: http://www.arb.ca.gov/lispub/comm/bclist.php The Staff Report may be obtained from ARB’s website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/gmbond by September 10, 2015. Further inquiries regarding this matter should be directed to Ms. Ambreen Afshan, Air Pollution Specialist, at (916) 322-8522 or Ms. Barbara Van Gee, Manager, Goods Movement Strategies Section at (916) 324-9949. Background: California voters approved $1 billion in bond funding under Proposition 1B in 2006. The Proposition 1B: Goods Movement Emission Reduction Program is a partnership between the ARB and local agencies (like air districts and ports) to reduce air pollution emissions and health risk from freight movement along California’s trade corridors. ARB provides funding to eligible agencies; those agencies then offer financial incentives to owners of equipment used in freight movement to upgrade to cleaner technologies prior to regulatory requirements.

Short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) include methane, black carbon, and fluorinated gases. They are powerful climate forcers that remain in the atmosphere for a much shorter period of time than longer-lived climate pollutants, including carbon dioxide. Their relative potency, when measured in terms of how they heat the atmosphere, can be tens to thousands of times greater than that of carbon dioxide. Senate Bill 605 (Lara, Chapter 523, Statutes of 2014) requires ARB, in coordination with other state agencies and local air districts, to develop a SLCP Strategy by the end of 2015, to reduce SLCP emissions in California. The Draft Strategy describes ongoing and potential new measures to reduce SLCP emissions from major sources in the State, and describes current and future research needs for improving the SLCP emission inventory and better understanding potential mitigation measures. The Draft Strategy will be discussed at public workshops in October. Comments received on the Draft Strategy will inform the development of a Proposed Strategy, which will be will presented to the Board in late 2015. ARB welcomes broad participation of stakeholders, experts, and interested parties throughout this process. The Draft Strategy can be found at ARB's Short-Lived Climate Pollutant website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/shortlived/shortlived.htm The website also contains a link for submitting written comments on the Draft Strategy.

The meetings are open to the public and full participation by all parties is encouraged. Locations and dates of the workshops are: Sacramento: October 13, 2015 Diamond Bar: October 14, 2015 Fresno: October 19, 2015 Additional workshop details are included in the notice that is posted here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/shortlived/2015notice.pdf The Draft Strategy can be found on ARB's Short-Lived Climate Pollutant website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/shortlived/shortlived.htm The website also contains a link for submitting written comments on the Draft Strategy. Comments received on the Draft Strategy will inform the development of a Proposed Strategy, which will be presented to the Board in late 2015. An agenda and presentation will be posted before the workshops. Background Short-lived climate pollutants are powerful climate forcers that remain in the atmosphere for a much shorter period of time than major climate pollutants such as carbon dioxide. Their relative potency in terms of how they heat the atmosphere can be tens to thousands of times greater than CO2. Short-lived climate pollutants include methane, black carbon, and fluorinated gases. The impacts of short-lived climate pollutants are especially strong within the near term. Reducing these emissions can have an immediate beneficial impact on climate change. Senate Bill 605 (Lara, Chapter 523, Statutes of 2014) requires ARB, in coordination with other State agencies and local air districts, to develop a strategy by the end of 2015, to further reduce short-lived climate pollutant emissions in California.
