The California Air Resources Board (CARB) invites you to
participate in a public workgroup meeting to discuss potential
strategies for accelerating deployment of zero emission truck
technologies.   The workgroup will include an analysis of costs
of advanced and conventional truck technologies in the California
market, a discussion of the state of the advanced technologies
market and ongoing developments, factors affecting the demand of
zero-emission vehicles, revisions to the previously discussed
Engine-Efficiency Ratio draft paper, and a discussion focused
solely on the Class 2B-3 market.

The public workgroup meeting is open to the public and in-person
participation is strongly encouraged.  The workgroup meeting will
be held at the following location and times: 

Date:		Wednesday, August 30, 2017
Time:		10:00 am to 4:00 pm (PST)
Place:		Cal/EPA Headquarters Building, 
		Coastal Hearing Room, Second Floor
		1001 I Street, Sacramento, California 95814
Directions:	https://goo.gl/maps/x1iswHHwiJT2 


The workgroup meeting will also be available via webcast for
stakeholders who are unable to attend in person and can be
accessed on the day of the workgroup meeting at: 
https://video.calepa.ca.gov/. 

Staff’s presentation, meeting agenda, and other meeting materials
will be posted in advance of the workgroup meeting on CARB’s
Advanced Clean Local Truck website at: 
www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/actruck/actruck.htm. 

Background:  
Achieving California’s long-term air quality, climate, and public
health goals will require a transition from the conventional
combustion technologies to zero emissions everywhere feasible and
near-zero emissions powered by clean, low-carbon renewable fuels
everywhere else.  Promoting the development and use of advanced
clean trucks will help achieve emission reductions as outlined in
the State Implementation Plan, Senate Bill 350 (de León, Chapter
547, 2015), and Assembly Bill 32 (Nuñez, Chapter 488, 2006). 
These strategies support CARB’s efforts to protect public health
for the millions of Californians that still breathe unhealthy
air, reduce exposure to air toxics in disadvantaged communities,
and meet California’s greenhouse gas emission reduction targets
as part of the global action needed to slow global warming and
achieve climate stabilization.  Advanced Clean Local Trucks
specifically aims to complement existing programs to achieve GHG
emission reductions through the use of advanced clean technology
and to increase the penetration of the first wave of zero
emission heavy-duty technology into applications that are well
suited to its use.
