Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 11:36:24 -0800 Subject: arbcombo -- Draft Freight Hub Survey for Truck Stops Released for Public Comment From: rding@arb.ca.gov The Air Resources Board (ARB) staff has released the Draft Freight Hub Survey for Truck Stops for public comment. The Draft Freight Hub Survey for Truck Stops is the first in a series of six freight hub surveys that will be released by ARB this year. Each of the surveys will undergo a public comment period before being finalized. The types of freight hubs being surveyed during this effort include: truck stops, border crossings, rail yards, airports, seaports, and warehouses and distribution centers. The purpose of these surveys is to collect specific facility and equipment information from California based freight hubs. The data gathered from these surveys will help ARB staff better understand the activity that occurs at freight hubs in California, assess the potential for emission reductions, inform potential strategies for reducing those emissions, and direct funding assistance efforts. Please see the Program website at https://www.arb.ca.gov/gmp/sfti/sfdatacollect.htm to get more information, submit comments, and view the surveys as they become available. Background: On July 17, 2015, Governor Brown issued Executive Order B-32-15 which directs State agencies to improve freight efficiency, transition to zero-emission technologies, and increase the competitiveness of California’s freight system. To support this effort and other air quality, climate, and sustainability goals, Air Resources Board (ARB) staff has identified the need to collect specific facility and equipment information from California based freight hubs. If you have any questions regarding the draft freight hub surveys, please contact Ugo Eke, Air Resources Engineer, at (916) 322-7298 or via email at ugonna.eke@arb.ca.gov.

Staff will discuss proposed amendments that would: 1) reduce the current 40 percent opacity limit; 2) require opacity testers who perform paid opacity testing services to be trained to ensure compliance with the SAE J1667 snap acceleration test procedures; and 3) implement web-based fleet reporting requirements using a phase-in schedule. Staff also will briefly discuss its ongoing efforts to develop a comprehensive inspection and maintenance (I/M) program for heavy-duty (HD) vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 14,000 pounds for implementation in the post-2020 timeframe. The workshop will be held at the following location and time, and will be webcast for those unable to attend in person. This is the third and final public workshop before staff is scheduled to present the proposed amendments to the Board at the October 26-27, 2017, public meeting in Riverside, California. Date: Wednesday, May 17, 2017 Time: 1:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. Location: CalEPA Headquarters Building Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd floor 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814 The broadcast can be accessed on the day of the workshop at: https://video.calepa.ca.gov/. For more information and to view the public workshop notice, please visit the program website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/hdim/hdim.htm. Staff will also post the workshop presentation to this website before the workshop begins. If you wish to continue receiving information on the proposed opacity regulatory amendments or on the HD I/M regulatory development process, please sign up for the new HD I/M list serve: http://www.arb.ca.gov/listserv/listserv_ind.php?listname=hdim. For more information on the existing HDVIP and PSIP, please visit the program website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/enf/hdvip/hdvip.htm Background: Legislative mandates from the late 1980s and early 1990s required CARB to develop regulatory programs to inspect heavy-duty vehicles for excessive smoke emissions and for tampering. These programs, the HDVIP (also known as the roadside program) and the PSIP (also known as the fleet program), remain in force today and are currently CARB’s primary HD vehicle screening programs to detect excess opacity emissions from in-use trucks. While these programs have been effective, they were established before the use of diesel particulate filters (DPFs), which come new on 2007 and later model year engines. Because of the widespread use of DPFs and the need to ensure they are operating efficiently, CARB now needs to update the HDVIP and PSIP regulations to reduce the opacity limit to assist in identifying heavy-duty trucks with broken DPFs and in need of repair, and to incorporate other proposed program improvements. The proposed amendments to the HDVIP and PSIP are also an important first step in transitioning to a more robust multi-pollutant HD I/M program that takes advantage of the extensive capabilities of on-board diagnostic systems in newer engines (2013 and later model year engines) for monitoring the performance of nearly every emission-related engine component and emission control component. At the workshop, staff will also briefly discuss its ongoing work in developing a comprehensive HD I/M regulatory program, which it expects to present to the Board for consideration in the 2020-timeframe.

On April 13, 2017, Air Resources Board Chair Mary Nichols submitted a petition to U.S. EPA urging federal action to establish more health-protective emission standards for locomotives. The focus of this request is to accelerate the movement to zero- and near-zero emission locomotives. Proposed emission standards would cut toxic and smog-causing emissions by 85% for diesel particulate matter (PM) and 66% for oxides of nitrogen (NOx) below current ‘Tier 4’ levels. Newly manufactured locomotives would also have some zero-emission mile capability, reducing harmful diesel emissions in railyards, and benefitting the disadvantaged communities around them. California is requesting that U.S. EPA respond by Summer, 2017. The full petition to the U.S. EPA is at: https://www.arb.ca.gov/railyard/railyard.htm Background: New locomotives are regulated by U.S. EPA. U.S. EPA first established emission standards applicable to locomotives and locomotive engines in 1998, and the standards were last revised in 2008. The current Tier 4 line haul locomotive standard is effective for locomotives manufactured in 2015.

The workshops will be held at the locations and on the dates noted below. The agencies will follow the same format and show the same presentation at each of the workshop locations. OAKLAND: May 9, 2017 LOS ANGELES: May 30, 2017 SAN DIEGO: May 31, 2017 For more information on the California Sustainable Freight Action Plan including upcoming workshops, please visit the webpage at http://www.casustainablefreight.org/ If you would like to receive notices of future freight meetings and the availability of materials, please sign up for the California Sustainable Freight list serve at: CSFAP@dot.ca.gov Background In July 2016, California released the Action Plan. The Action Plan was developed in response to Governor Brown’s Executive Order B-32-15 and led by the Secretaries of the California Transportation Agency, California Environmental Protection Agency, and the Natural Resources Agency. It was an unprecedented effort to identify State policies, programs, investments, and pilot projects to achieve a freight transport system that meets the State’s transportation, air quality, climate, energy, and economic needs. The Action Plan includes a long-term 2050 Vision and Guiding Principles for California’s future freight transport system; Targets for 2030 to guide the State toward meeting the Vision; opportunities to leverage State freight transport system investments; actions to initiate over the next five years to make progress towards the Targets and the Vision; potential pilot projects to achieve on-the-ground progress in the near-term; and additional concepts for further exploration and development, if viable.

Staff will discuss proposed amendments that would: 1) reduce the current 40 percent opacity limit; 2) require opacity testers to be trained to ensure compliance with the SAE J1667 snap acceleration test procedures; and 3) require web-based fleet reporting. Staff also will briefly discuss its ongoing efforts to develop a comprehensive inspection and maintenance (I/M) program for heavy-duty (HD) vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 14,000 pounds for implementation in the post-2020 timeframe. The workshop will be held at the following location and time, and will be webcast for those unable to attend in person. This is the third public workshop, and staff is scheduled to present the proposed amendments to the Board at the October 26-27, 2017, public meeting in Riverside, California. Date: Wednesday, May 17, 2017 Time: 1:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. Location: CalEPA Headquarters Building Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd floor 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814 The broadcast can be accessed on the day of the workshop at: https://video.calepa.ca.gov/. The presentation slides for the May 17, 2017, workshop may be accessed on the website at: https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/hdim/meetings/opacity_workshop_presentation_05-17-2017.pdf For more information and to view the public workshop notice, please visit the program website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/hdim/hdim.htm. If you wish to continue to receive information regarding the potential opacity regulatory amendments or the HD I/M regulatory development process, please sign up for the new HD I/M list serve: http://www.arb.ca.gov/listserv/listserv_ind.php?listname=hdim. For more information on the existing HDVIP and PSIP, please visit the program website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/enf/hdvip/hdvip.htm Background: Legislative mandates from the late 1980s and early 1990s required CARB to develop regulatory programs to inspect heavy-duty vehicles for excessive smoke emissions and for tampering. These programs, the HDVIP (also known as the roadside program) and the PSIP (also known as the fleet program), remain in force today and are currently CARB’s primary HD vehicle screening programs to detect excess opacity emissions from in-use trucks. While these programs have been effective, they were established before the use of diesel particulate filters (DPFs), which come new on 2007 and later model year engines. Because of the widespread use of DPFs and the need to ensure they are operating efficiently, CARB now needs to update the HDVIP and PSIP regulations to reduce the opacity limit to assist in identifying heavy-duty trucks with broken DPFs and in need of repair, and to incorporate other proposed program improvements. The proposed amendments to the HDVIP and PSIP are also an important first step in transitioning to a more robust multi-pollutant HD I/M program that takes advantage of the extensive capabilities of on-board diagnostic systems in newer engines (2013 and later model year engines) for monitoring the performance of nearly every emission-related engine component and emission control component. At the workshop, staff will also briefly present its ongoing work in developing a comprehensive HD I/M regulatory program, which it expects to present to the Board for consideration in the 2020-timeframe. If you have questions on the subject matter of the workshop, please contact Jason Hill-Falkenthal at (916) 322-4683 or via email at Jason.Hill-Falkenthal@arb.ca.gov.

Thursday, June 15, 2017 at 10:00 a.m., PDT (WEBCAST) Sierra Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, CalEPA Building 1001 I Street, Sacramento, California The 2010 emission standards for heavy-duty engines have established a limit for oxides of nitrogen (NOX) emissions of 0.20 g/bhp-hr, a 90% reduction from the previous emission standards. However, it is projected that even when the entire on-road fleet of heavy-duty vehicles operating in California is compliant with the 2010 NOX emission standards, the upcoming National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) requirements for ambient particulate matter and ozone will not be achieved in California without further significant reduction in NOX emissions from the heavy-duty vehicles. The main goal of this project was to demonstrate that modern heavy duty engines can achieve a target of 0.02 g/bhp-hr for tailpipe NOX emission, which represents a 90% reduction from the 2010 standard, with currently available control technology. An additional goal of the project was that the final configurations of engine and aftertreatment systems should be consistent with a path toward meeting current and future heavy-duty greenhouse gas (GHG) and fuel economy standards.

The VW Mitigation Trust is a component of a partial settlement with VW resulting from its use of illegal defeat devices in certain 2.0-liter and 3.0-liter model year 2009 to 2016 diesel cars sold in the State. The Mitigation Trust is enumerated in a Partial Consent Decree as Appendix D. The workshop will be held at the following date, time, and location: Date: Monday, October 9, 2017 Time: 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (PST) Location: Cal/EPA Headquarters Byron Sher Auditorium, Second Floor 1001 I Street Sacramento, California 95814 During the workshop, staff will discuss and seek input on factors for developing California’s Beneficiary Mitigation Plan to guide VW Mitigation Trust monies in California, including: • Guiding principles for the use of the Mitigation Trust funds. • Potential eligible mitigation action categories to consider for funding. • The process for administering mitigation action projects. • Implementing Legislative direction (Senate Bill 92) on providing benefits to low-income and disadvantaged communities. For more information on this workshop, see the detailed workshop notice at https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/mailouts/msc1715/msc1715.pdf. If you have questions regarding the workshop, please contact Lisa Williams at (916) 324-7582 or lisa.williams@arb.ca.gov. Interested members of the public may also submit comments throughout the Beneficiary Mitigation Plan development process either by postal mail or electronically. Postal mail: Ms. Lisa Williams California Air Resources Board, Mailstop 5B P.O. Box 2815 Sacramento, California 95812-2815 Electronic submittal: https://www.arb.ca.gov/lispub/comm2/bcsubform.php?listname=vw-mititrust-pl-ws&comm_period=1 A new email listserv has been established for the VW Environmental Mitigation Trust for California. To continue to receive notices regarding this subject, please subscribe to the “vw-mititrust” listserv at https://www.arb.ca.gov/listserv/listserv_ind.php?listname=vw-mititrust. Background: In October 2016, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California approved a Partial Consent Decree (first Consent Decree) pertaining to the subject 2.0 liter VW diesel cars. A second Partial Consent Decree was approved by the Court in May 2017 that pertains to the subject 3.0-liter diesel cars and augments the first Consent Decree. The Consent Decrees partially resolve Clean Air Act and California state claims against VW for equipping its 2.0-liter and 3.0-liter diesel vehicles with defeat devices. The Mitigation Trust is enumerated in the first Partial Consent Decree as Appendix D. Appendix D is intended to mitigate past and future excess NOx emissions from the subject vehicles. Under the terms of the Consent Decree, VW must pay about $3 billion ($423 million for California) into a mitigation trust over a three-year period for eligible mitigation actions that consist mostly of scrap-and-replace projects, including supportive infrastructure for zero- and near zero-emission advanced technology replacements, for the heavy-duty sector. Before the State can expend any Trust funds, it must develop and submit to the Trustee, Wilmington Trust, N.A., a Beneficiary Mitigation Plan that describes the eligible mitigation actions to be funded; the recommended allocation percentages; the estimated emission benefits; and a consideration of potential impacts of the eligible mitigation actions on air quality in areas that bear a disproportionate share of the air pollution burden. In addition to the Consent Decree requirements, Senate Bill (SB) 92, passed in June 2017, further directs how California’s Mitigation Trust funds in Appendix D are to be spent. The legislation directs the designated Lead Agency for the Mitigation Trust to strive to ensure that at least 35 percent of California’s allocation benefit low-income or disadvantaged communities that are disproportionately impacted by air pollution. SB 92 also requires the Lead Agency – which the Governor has indicated will be CARB – to strive to ensure that the expenditures align with the state’s priorities and provide for public transparency before approval.
