Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2012 16:42:20 -0800 Subject: arbcombo -- Applications for New or Modified Fuel Pathways (Methods 2A/2B) under the California LCFS have been posted From: sdesterh@arb.ca.gov 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 new or modified fuel pathways in response to stakeholder requests. The California Air Resources Board (ARB) staff has posted seven Method 2A/2B applications for new or modified fuel pathways under the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS). Please visit the LCFS website: http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/2a2b/2a-2b-apps.htm Pursuant to Regulatory Advisory 10-04, upon posting on the LCFS website, these pathways and their associated carbon intensity values may be used for reporting and credit generation purposes prior to adoption and incorporation into the LCFS regulation. If you have any questions, please contact Wes Ingram, Manager, Fuels Evaluation Section, at (916) 322-3984. The Low Carbon Fuel Standard, a regulation to reduce the carbon intensity of fuels sold in California ten percent by 2020, is one of the measures adopted by the California Air Resources Board, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections 38500-38599 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases in California. It 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.

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.

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.

One of the district court’s rulings preliminarily enjoined the Air Resources Board (ARB) from enforcing the regulation. In January 2012, ARB appealed that decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (Ninth Circuit), and then moved to stay the injunction pending resolution of the appeal. On April 23, 2012, the Ninth Circuit granted the ARB’s motion for a stay of the injunction while it continues to consider ARB’s appeal of the lower court’s decision. We appreciate the Ninth Circuit court’s ruling allowing the LCFS to move forward pending a final ruling on the appeal. Yesterday’s decision allows the ARB to continue implementation and resume enforcement of this important program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, driving the investment and innovation that creates new jobs and provides the next generation of clean fuels to all Californians. The ARB believes that enforcement of the LCFS requirements is important to the success of the program. Because the injunction was in effect when the 2011 fourth quarter reports were due, we will allow those regulated parties that have not yet submitted their 2011 fourth quarter reports to submit those reports no later than April 30, 2012. This is the same date when the 2011 annual compliance reports are due. If you have any questions, please contact Floyd Vergara, Chief, Alternative Fuels Branch, at (916) 322-6312 or fvergara@arb.ca.gov.

Panelists will discuss how California can most effectively invest these funds to support the goals of Assembly Bill 32 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases, as well as encourage long-term transformation to improve public health and develop a clean energy economy. The public can share ideas about what criteria and programs should be prioritized in the development of an investment plan. ARB will soon be issuing a notice that provides additional detail about the meeting and how to participate. DATE: May 24, 2012 TIME: 1:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. PDT PLACE: California Environmental Protection Agency Building Byron Sher Auditorium, 2nd floor 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814 A live webcast of the meeting will be available at: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/?BDO=1 The meeting notice will be available soon at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/meetings/meetings.htm. BACKGROUND: The Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (Chapter 488, Statutes of 2006 [AB 32, Núñez/Pavley]), requires California to reduce statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and to maintain and continue reductions beyond 2020. As part of this effort, ARB has developed a cap-and-trade program. The program establishes a statewide emissions limit on sources responsible for 85 percent of greenhouse gases and creates a financial incentive for investment in clean and efficient technologies. Under the program, a portion of allowances required for compliance will be auctioned. Strategic investment of auction funds can further the purposes of AB 32 and deliver long-term economic, environmental, and clean energy benefits. The first auction is scheduled for November 2012 and auctions will be held on a quarterly basis thereafter through 2020. ACCOMMODATION: To request special accommodations or language needs, please contact Carol Wysong at 916.322.0289 as soon as possible, but no later than 10 business days before the scheduled meeting.

David L. Greene, Ph.D., Senior Fellow, Howard H. Baker Jr., Center for Public Policy, University of Tennessee, and Corporate Fellow, Oak Ridge National Laboratory Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 12 - Noon PDT Byron Sher Auditorium, 2nd Floor, Cal/EPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California Petroleum dependence is a serious economic and national security problem for the U.S. High levels of consumption and imports, coupled with the use of monopoly power in global oil markets and a historical lack of alternatives, have imposed significant costs on the U.S. economy. Today, direct economic costs from petroleum dependence are higher than they were during the oil embargoes of the 1970s and are estimated to have exceeded $2 trillion since 2005. These costs represent wealth transfer out of the country and lost economic output due to monopoly pricing and price spikes. (They do not account for indirect costs related to congestion, defense, or health impacts). Reducing petroleum dependence by transitioning to a low carbon transportation system can generate hundreds of billions of dollars annually in economic and national security benefits for the U.S. By greatly increasing energy efficiency and substituting hydrogen, electricity and biofuels produced with low net greenhouse gas emissions, the U.S. can develop a sustainable and diverse transportation system while fostering a crucial link to economic and national security.

Brown’s direction on October 7, 2012, the Air Resources Board (ARB) is immediately taking necessary steps to allow for an early transition to winter-blend gasoline that can be manufactured, imported, distributed, and sold in California. Due to the convergence of a number of recent events (e.g., refinery fire, electricity interruption, pipeline contamination) and planned shutdowns of several refineries and pipelines, the gasoline market in California is currently experiencing tight supplies. In response, ARB has issued a Regulatory Advisory that administratively permits the manufacture, importation, distribution, and sale of gasoline that meets a Reid Vapor Pressure limit of 9.0 psi.
