sb375 -- Release of ARB Staff’s Technical Evaluation of the Sustainable Communities Strategy for the Shasta Regional Transportation Agency
Posted: 19 Oct 2015 12:35:31
ARB Staff’s Technical Evaluation of the Sustainable Communities
Strategy (SCS) for the Shasta Metropolitan Planning Organization
(MPO) region is now posted. The staff of the California Air
Resources Board (ARB or Board) has completed its technical review
of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions quantification
for Shasta Regional Transportation Agency’s (SRTA) SCS. A staff
report has been completed to document the staff’s findings that
SRTA’s SCS would, if implemented, achieve the regional GHG
emissions targets set by the Board. The staff report is
available from ARB’s SB375 website at
http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/sb375/sb375.htm
Background: California State law (the Sustainable Communities
and Climate Protection Act of 2008, Sustainable Communities Act
or SB 375, Chapter 728, Statutes of 2008) requires each of the
State’s MPOs to prepare an SCS to meet the regional GHG emissions
reduction targets for 2020 and 2035, set by the Board. The
statute also requires ARB to review each MPO’s determination that
its SCS would, if implemented, achieve the GHG emissions
reduction targets.
On October 22, 2015, the Board will consider whether to accept or
reject SRTA’s determination that its SCS would meet the targets
for 2020 and 2035. ARB staff is recommending that the Board
accept the SCS as meeting the targets. This item will be on the
consent agenda and therefore there will be no staff presentation.
The agenda for the October 22, 2015 public meeting is posted at
