ARB has extended the deadline for the submission of alternatives
relating to economic impacts for ARB to analyze in its
Standardized Regulatory Impact Analysis (SRIA) and/or under
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to Monday, June 23,
2014. 

In response to the requirements of SB 617 (see
http://www.dof.ca.gov/research/economic_research_unit/SB617_regulation/view.php)
and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), ARB is
welcoming public input on alternatives to the existing regulation
and concepts in the LCFS Re-Adoption Concept Paper released on
March 7, 2014.

As part of our effort, we initially asked those who wish to
assist us in proposing and analyzing alternatives to the LCFS to
submit their ideas and analyses by June 6th – in time to be
considered in connection with the Standardized Regulatory Impact
Analysis (SRIA) we are preparing for submittal to the Department
of Finance.  In light of a request from Growth Energy for
additional time, we will extend the time for submitting
alternative(s) and analysis to June 23, 2014. ARB’s response to
Growth Energy’s request is available at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/growthenergyresponse_06052014.pdf.

For more information on SB 617, please see the Department of
Finance’s implementing regulations at title 1, sections 2000-2004
of the California Code of Regulations (available at 
https://govt.westlaw.com/calregs/Browse/Home/California/CaliforniaCodeofRegulations?guid=I3F8EE070481811E3A6E48D2522760836&transitionType=Default&contextData=(sc.Default)#I401F60A0481811E3A6E48D2522760836).

To submit an alternative for ARB to analyze in its Standardized
Regulatory Impact Analysis (SRIA) and/or under CEQA, please
ensure that your submission discusses the alternative’s ability
to fulfill the purposes of the draft regulatory proposal as ARB
has presented it.  To enable comparison of economic impacts,
please submit the quantities of low-CI fuels used each year to
comply with the alternative.  Alternatives may be submitted via
email to Ms. Kirsten King, at kking@arb.ca.gov.

The LCFS, a regulation to reduce the carbon intensity of fuels
sold in California ten percent by 2020, is one of the measures
adopted by ARB, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Sections
38500-38599 (AB 32) to reduce greenhouse gases in California. It
is designed to help clean the air, protect the environment, and
drive the development of clean, low-carbon fuels.
