ARB Public Workshop on Health Impact Assessment of Potential
Cap-and-Trade Cases. 

The California Air Resources Board (ARB) and the California
Department of Public Health (CDPH) are working in collaboration
to conduct a Health Impact Assessment (HIA) on the impacts of
potential cap-and-trade cases in California. An overview of HIA
will be provided at the Climate Action Team (CAT) Public Health
Workgroup meeting on September 14, 2009, meeting details are
available at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/ab32publichealth/meetings/meetings.htm.


On September 21, 2009 ARB and CDPH will kick-off the scoping
component of the HIA process. The meeting will be held from 1:00
– 4:00 PM at the Cal/EPA Headquarters building in Sacramento.
This will be the first of at least two meetings intended to scope
out the health issues for analysis.
Throughout the HIA process there will be opportunities for
public input. The work products will also be reviewed by an
external academic advisory committee.  


All of the public meetings will be webcast and a call-in line
will be provided. Details on the upcoming HIA scoping meeting are
forthcoming.


We look forward to your participation on September 21st !!
