arbcombo -- High GWP Refrigerant Management Statewide Workshop Notice
Posted: 13 Jan 2009 16:05:04
Statewide workshop notice: High Global Warming Potential Refrigerant Management Program for Stationary Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Equipment. The Air Resources Board (ARB) staff invites you to participate in the second statewide public workshop to discuss proposed regulation for reducing high-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant emissions from stationary refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment through leak repair, reporting, improved refrigerant recovery rates, and other approaches. This control measure is being developed as an early action measure pursuant to the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32). At the workshop, ARB staff will present an overview of the sector, efforts to date, the draft preliminary results of emissions inventory, cost analysis, and the draft regulatory language. Attached please find our workshop notice. In order to gather additional information from all stakeholders, staff will host three workshops throughout the State. Staff will present the same information at all three locations shown below. Diamond Bar Date: February 3 (Tuesday), 2009 Time: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM Location: 21865 Copley Dr, Diamond Bar, CA 91765 Modesto Date: February 5 (Thursday), 2009 Time: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM Location: 4800 Enterprise Way, Modesto, CA 95356 Sacramento (Webcast - http://www.calepa.ca.gov/broadcast/?BDO=1) Date: February 10 (Tuesday), 2009 Time: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM Location: Byron Sher Auditorium (2F), 1001 I Street, Sacramento Direction: http://www.calepa.ca.gov/EPABldg/location.htm We have developed a website and list-serve to help stakeholders stay current on regulatory developments, future meetings, and timelines. Please visit our website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/reftrack/reftrack.htm for additional information. In mid or late January 2009, ARB staff will post the following documents on our website: 1. revised draft regulatory language; 2. Appendix A: California Facilities and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory – High-Global Warming Potential Stationary Source Refrigerant Management Program; and 3. Appendix B: Economic Impact Estimates – High-Global Warming Potential Stationary Source Refrigerant Management Program. These two appendices present the technical review of staff’s research on the baseline 2010 and 2020 business-as-usual and post rule implementation emissions inventory, potential emissions reductions, and costs related to the Refrigerant Management Program proposed regulation. The workshops were rescheduled to the dates indicated in order to allow time for the three documents listed above to be drafted and reviewed. The tentative Board hearing and adoption date is May 2009. An agenda and staff presentation will be posted prior to the Diamond Bar workshop at our website too.
