arbcombo -- Work Group Meetings for AQIP Low Carbon Transportation FY 2014-15 Pilot and Freight Demonstration Projects
Posted: 24 Sep 2014 09:12:28
In June 2014, the Air Resources Board (ARB) approved the Fiscal Year (FY) 2014-15 Funding Plan for the Air Quality Improvement Program (AQIP) and Low Carbon Transportation Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Fund (GGRF) Investments (FY 2014-15 Funding Plan), providing up to $9 million in funding for Light-Duty Pilot Projects, up to $25 million for Heavy-Duty Pilot Projects, and up to $50 million for Advanced Technology Freight Demonstration Projects. These projects, outlined in the FY 2014-15 Funding Plan, will be further developed with public input beginning in fall 2014 through a series of work group meetings and individual stakeholder discussions. Individual work groups will be established for each project listed below. The purpose of the work group meetings is to discuss the project design and scope of work for each project solicitation. Staff encourages anyone who is interested in one or more of these pilot projects to join our work group email lists. To join our work group email lists, please email Stella Ling-Taylor at slingtay@arb.ca.gov and indicate which email list(s) you would like to be added to, from the following list: • FY 2014-15 Funding Plan Implementation • Car Sharing and Mobility Options in Disadvantaged Communities • Vehicle Retirement and Replacement Plus-Up • Light-Duty Financing Assistance Programs • Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Pilot Projects in Disadvantaged Communities • Zero-Emission Drayage Truck Demonstration • Multi-Source Facility Demonstration Projects For more information about AQIP’s Pilot Projects or Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects, please visit: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/pilots.htm For more information about AQIP, please visit: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/aqip.htm For more information about the Fiscal Year 2014-15 Funding Plan, please go to: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aqip/fundplan/fundplan.htm Background: The Air Quality Improvement Program (AQIP) is designed to support development and commercialization of advanced technologies that are necessary to meet California’s air quality and climate goals. Established through the Alternative and Renewable Fuel, Vehicle Technology, Clean Air, and Carbon Reduction Act of 2007 (AB 118; Núñez, Chapter 750, Statutes of 2007), the program focuses on reducing criteria pollutant and diesel particulate pollution with concurrent reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The FY 2014-15 State budget provides $200 million from the State’s share of auction proceeds under the Air Resources Board’s Cap and Trade program to be spent on low carbon transportation projects that reduce GHG emissions primarily in disadvantaged communities. Because the Governor’s goals for the investment of Cap and Trade proceeds are consistent with the established objectives of the AQIP program, and because of the past success of the AQIP program structure, this year staff is combining the two funding sources (AQIP and Low Carbon Transportation Investments).
