arbcombo -- Online Registration Now Available for California’s Cap-and-Trade Program
Posted: 09 Jan 2012 14:04:38
NOTE *** Covered entities must register by January 31, 2012 ***. The California Air Resources Board (ARB) is providing an online registration form for covered entities to register for the cap-and-trade program as required by the California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market-Based Compliance Regulation. Under the regulation, entities that meet the requirements to be designated as “covered entities” must register for the cap-and-trade program by January 31, 2012. The information provided by registrants is needed to initiate the regulatory relationship between ARB and entities subject to the cap-and-trade regulation. This information will also be used to communicate important regulatory and implementation information with the covered entities. Voluntary market participants may also use the form to register for the program, but they are not subject to the January 31, 2012 deadline. The form and supporting documentation may be accessed from the ARB website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/registration/registration.htm Guidance to help facilities determine if they are designated as a “covered entity” is available at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/registration/registration-guidance.pdf Additional information about the cap-and-trade program and regulation can be accessed from our website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/capandtrade/capandtrade.htm If you have questions, please contact David Kennedy at dkennedy@arb.ca.gov or (916) 322-3935. *Update on Compliance Instrument Tracking System Service* ARB staff is also developing the Compliance Instrument Tracking System Service (CITSS) to support the cap-and-trade regulation. CITSS will provide accounts for market participants to hold and retire compliance instruments (allowances and ARB offsets), and to participate in transactions of compliance instruments with other account holders. Registration in the CITSS will be available by spring of 2012. Staff will provide training on the system and details about any requirements for additional required or updated information (beyond that provided on the form linked to this notice) as part of the CITSS registration process. For general questions regarding the cap-and-trade program, please call the cap-and-trade hotline number at (916) 322-2037.
