Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2015 15:51:19 -0700 Subject: arbcombo -- Prop.1B/Goods Movement Workshops Program Updates From: rding@arb.ca.gov Please mark your calendars for an upcoming series of public workshops to discuss updates to the Proposition 1B: Goods Movement Emission Reduction Program Guidelines for future funding. The Guidelines define the responsibilities of the State Air Resources Board (ARB), local agencies, and equipment owners, as well as the technical specifications and funding amounts for eligible projects. We will hold three workshops during the week of April 27th, 2015 to discuss these concepts and your ideas. Please see the Program website at www.arb.ca.gov/gmbond for the workshop details. 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. If you have any questions, please call our Goods Movement Information Line at:(916)44-GOODS (444-6637) or contact us via email at gmbond@arb.ca.gov. California is in a drought emergency.

If you have questions regarding the symposium, please contact Krista Fregoso at (916) 445-5035 or krista.fregoso@arb.ca.gov. Background: ARB staff is working jointly with the staff of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on the next phase of greenhouse gas emission standards for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, referred to as Phase 2. These standards are expected to build on the improvements in engine and vehicle efficiency required by the Phase 1 greenhouse gas emission standards, and provide a significant opportunity to achieve further greenhouse gas reductions for 2018 and later model-year heavy-duty vehicles, including trailers. U.S. EPA and NHTSA are planning to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for the Phase 2 standards in the spring of 2015 and a final rule in the spring of 2016. Upon federal adoption of the Phase 2 standards, ARB staff plans to present a proposed California Phase 2 program to the Board, most likely in late 2016 or 2017. California is in a drought emergency.

This document provides an overview and status update on the heavy duty technology and fuels available. To view or submit comments on the Draft Overview please go to: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/techreport/comments.htm Contact: Renee Littaua (916) 324-6429 or rlittaua@arb.ca.gov Background Overview California needs a 90 percent reduction in NOx emissions by 2031, and an 80 percent reduction in GHG emissions below 1990 levels by 2050 to meet air quality and climate targets. Significant improvements in efficiency and the use of renewable fuels are also needed to meet the Governor’s 50 percent petroleum reduction target by 2030, and continued reductions in diesel PM and air toxics are necessary to protect public health. Achieving each of these goals will require a transition to zero and near-zero emission technologies in all mobile sources. The Draft Overview highlights technology and fuels that could help us achieve those goals, and covers several heavy-duty technology sectors, including: • trucks and buses • transport refrigeration units • locomotives • fuels – both conventional and alternative fuels • ocean-going vessels • commercial harbor craft (SCAQMD lead) • cargo handling equipment, and • aviation – including aircraft and ground support equipment This technology assessment is on-going and focuses not only on zero and near-zero emission technologies that will ultimately be necessary to meet long-term air quality and climate goals, but also on improvements to conventional technologies and gains in vehicle and freight system operational efficiency that could provide substantial near-term emissions reductions and help facilitate the transition to zero and near-zero emission technologies. The Draft Overview is now posted. More detailed draft assessments for each of the sectors listed above will be posted in 2015, as the drafts are completed. The draft sector reports will evaluate how each technology works, the fuels necessary to power each technology, as well as its state of market readiness, costs, environmental benefits, technology performance, and current deployment challenges. Additional background information on the Heavy Duty Technology and Fuels Assessment effort can be found here: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/tech/tech.htm Related Work The technology and fuels assessment draft overview and draft sector reports will help inform a number of on-going state efforts, including ARB’s Sustainable Freight Strategy.

This document is a discussion draft of guidance that California’s 35 local Air Pollution Control Districts and Air Quality Management Districts (Districts) may elect to use for incorporating the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment’s (OEHHA) new health risk assessment methodology into their stationary source permitting and Assembly Bill (AB) 2588 Air Toxics Hot Spots programs. This document is now available at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/toxics/rma/rmaguideline.htm. There are two public workshops scheduled to discuss this document in Diamond Bar and Sacramento on June 16 and 18, 2015, respectively. More information on these workshops and a copy of the workshop notice is available at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/toxics/rma/rmaworkshops.htm. The public comment period on the draft risk management guidance document ends June 26, 2015. Comments should be emailed to Mr. Gregory Harris at gregory.harris@arb.ca.gov or mailed to: California Air Resources Board Attn: Mr. Gregory Harris P.O. Box 2815 Sacramento, California 95812 Following the workshops, we will release a revised draft for consideration by the ARB at a public hearing on July 23, 2015. More information on the public hearing will be listed at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/board/meetings.htm#2015. If you have questions regarding the discussion document, please contact Mr. Gregory Harris, Staff Air Pollution Specialist, at (916) 327 5980 or via email at gregory.harris@arb.ca.gov. Background On March 6, 2015, OEHHA released the Air Toxics Hot Spots Program Risk Assessment Guidelines: Guidance Manual for the Preparation of Health Risk Assessments. This document contains the new risk assessment methodology that addresses the latest scientific information on childhood sensitivities and the most recent data on childhood and adult exposure to air toxics. It represents an accumulation of data since the passage of the Children’s Health Protection Act of 1999 (SB 25, Stats. 1999) which required OEHHA to ensure infants and children are explicitly addressed in assessing risk. The use of the new risk assessment methodology may result in higher estimated cancer risk than what would have been calculated using the previous 2003 OEHHA risk assessment methodology for the same level of emissions and conditions. More information on the new OEHHA methodology can be found at: http://oehha.ca.gov/air/hot_spots/hotspots2015.html. In general, the higher estimated risks mean that new or modified sources of toxics may need additional emissions control. For existing sources, even though they meet existing rules and regulations, additional emissions control may be needed since the higher estimated risk might now exceed the District’s risk reduction levels for Hot Spots requirements. ARB and Districts are reevaluating their programs to determine if adjustments need to be made to permitting, source specific regulations, or Hot Spot programs. The “Risk Management Guidance for Stationary Sources of Air Toxics” is intended to help Districts with their reevaluation process and to communicate ARB and Districts’ plans, priorities, and policies regarding implementation of the new OEHHA risk assessment methodology. When approved, this document will supersede ARB’s Risk Management Guidelines for New and Modified Sources of Toxic Air Pollutants (1993). In addition, this document conveys ARB’s work plan for evaluating the Board’s Air Toxics Program and provides the updated Risk Management Policy for Inhalation Risk Assessments which replaces the ARB’s Interim Risk Management Policy for Inhalation based Residential Cancer Risk (2003).
