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/.

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.

Date: Wednesday, July 12, 2017 Time: 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. Location: South Coast Air Quality Management District Auditorium 21865 Copley Drive Diamond Bar, California 91765 A link to the workshop location is provided below: Location: https://goo.gl/maps/iz4RqCogjg62 For more information on this workshop, see the workshop notice at: https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/mailouts/msc1712/msc1712.pdf For more information on the HDV warranty program, as well as information on the development of other HD Low-NOx control measures, please visit our website at: https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/hdlownox/hdlownox.htm If you have questions on the subject matter of this workshop, please contact Mr. Jeff Lowry at (626) 575-6841, or via email at jlowry@arb.ca.gov. If you wish to receive information regarding HDV warranty regulatory amendments in the future, please sign up for the HD Low-NOx list serve “hdlownox” at the following link: https://www.arb.ca.gov/listserv/listserv.php Background: A key measure in CARB’s Revised Proposed 2016 State Strategy for the State Implementation Plan (State SIP Strategy) is ensuring that in-use heavy-duty vehicles continue to operate at their cleanest possible level (Lower In-Use Emission Performance Level). Amendments to warranty provisions are an important part of that measure. The State SIP Strategy is critical for attaining federal health-based air quality standards for ozone in 2023 and 2031 in the South Coast and San Joaquin Valley air basins, as well as fine particulate matter standards in the next decade. CARB is considering lengthening the required warranty period for HDVs because the current warranty period does not reflect real-world longevity and because longer warranty periods would result in lower NOx emissions. Class 8 HDVs frequently operate upwards of a million miles before major overhaul is needed, but they are required to be warranted for only 100,000 miles under CARB and U.S. EPA regulations. Classes 4 through 7 HDVs also have relatively short warranty periods compared to when major overhaul is needed. With longer required warranty periods, manufacturers would need to design more durable emission control systems and components. A proposal for longer HDV emission warranty periods is scheduled for Board consideration in December 2017.

The revision process was a collaborative effort by CARB and local Air Pollution Control / Air Quality Management Districts (air districts), informed by extensive input from the public through multiple workshops. The Board ultimately approved the guideline revisions after a hearing on April 27, 2017. The revised guideline documents are available at https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/moyer/guidelines/current.htm. The new 2017 Moyer Program Guidelines include changes in the following key areas: - Increased and expanded cost-effectiveness limits, especially for the cleanest technologies; - Infrastructure as a new funding category; - Expanded co-funding flexibility; - Updated calculation methods, including deterioration and updated emission factors; - Revisions to project criteria that expand opportunities for advanced technologies and larger fleets. The revised guidelines have been divided into two volumes. Volume I contains the Program Overview, Program Administration, and Project Criteria. Volume II contains the On-Road Voucher Incentive Program, Off-Road Voucher Incentive Program, and the Agricultural Assistance Program. Background: The Moyer Program provides grant funding for the incremental cost of cleaner-than-required engines, equipment, and emission reduction technologies. The 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.

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.

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.
