Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2012 16:31:03 -0800 Subject: arbcombo -- Approved Revisions to the Carl Moyer 2011 On-Road Voucher Incentive Program Guidelines From: pchriste@arb.ca.gov Approved revisions to the 2011 On-Road Voucher Incentive Program (VIP) Guidelines are now available. Mail-Out #MSC 12-01 announces the changes which include an update of the funding tables listed in Appendix O and P for calendar year 2012, establishing that the future funding tables will be updated annually, and a minor correction to Appendix E. All approved revisions are incorporated into the latest 2011 Carl Moyer Program Guidelines and can be found at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/moyer/guidelines/current.htm. BACKGROUND: Since 1998, the Carl Moyer Program has filled a critical niche in California’s strategy to achieve clean air. The Carl Moyer Program provides grant funding for the incremental cost of cleaner-than-required engines, equipment, and emission reduction technologies. The Carl Moyer Program complements California’s regulatory program by funding emission reductions that are surplus, i.e., early and/or in excess of what is required by regulation. State law authorizes Air Resources Board to revise the Carl Moyer Program Guidelines when necessary to improve the ability of the program to achieve its goals. If you have questions regarding these changes, please contact John Nguyen, Air Resources Engineer, at (916) 324-9858 or jnguyen@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, Núńez/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.
