arbcombo -- Carbon Capture and Sequestration Technical Discussion Series
Posted: 14 Apr 2016 11:14:31
California Air Resources Board (ARB) Staff invites you to participate in a series of technical discussions on the development of our Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) program. In order to ensure staff is using the best available information and understands stakeholder concerns, we are hosting a series of technical discussions. The CCS technical discussions are topic focused stakeholder-led discussions. The intent is to allow interested parties to provide input that will inform development of the CCS quantification methodology, as well as the CCS program generally. ARB will identify subject areas and specific questions, with the expectation that stakeholders will provide presentations, or other materials, and participate in an open discussion. Well Integrity Technical Discussion The well integrity technical discussion will focus on what needs to be considered to ensure that well integrity (on both newly drilled injection wells and legacy wells within the CCS project area) is maintained throughout a CCS project. DATE: Thursday May 12, 2016 TIME: 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. LOCATION: Coastal Hearing Room ADDRESS: Cal/EPA Headquarters Building 1001 "I" Street Sacramento, California 95814 Please see ARB’s CCS website at http://www.arb.ca.gov/cc/ccs/ccs.htm for information on participating in and presenting at the discussion series, including webinar access and in-person participation. ARB will post topic questions that are intended to guide stakeholder presentations and the discussion approximately 30 days prior to each discussion. If you have questions about the Technical Discussions, please contact Ms. Sara King, Air Pollution Specialist, at (916) 323 1009 or Sara.King@arb.ca.gov. Background: Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is an important strategy to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and mitigate climate change. CCS is a process by which large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) are captured, compressed, transported, and sequestered. ARB is currently developing a quantification methodology for CCS. As with other QMs, the CCS QM may be adopted for use in the Cap-and-Trade and Low Carbon Fuel Standard programs as determined appropriate in rulemaking(s) specific to these programs. Studies by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the California Council on Science and Technology (CCST), have shown that CCS has the potential to reduce carbon emissions by millions of metric tons, and may be an integral part of meeting California’s long term climate goals. California is in a drought emergency. Visit www.SaveOurH2O.org for water conservation tips.
