arbcombo -- Sunset of LCFS Regulation Method 1 and Method 2A/2B Fuel Pathways
Posted: 22 Dec 2016 16:39:31
The California Air Resources (ARB) staff is sending out a final notification that all Method 1 and Method 2A/2B pathway carbon intensities (CI) originally certified using CA-GREET 1.8b will sunset on December 31, 2016. All Fuel Pathway Codes (FPCs) corresponding to such pathways will be deactivated from the Alternative Fuels Portal (AFP)and will not be available to report in the LCFS Reporting Tool and Credit Bank & Transfer System (LRT-CBTS) effective 1st quarter, 2017. However, to ensure reporting of fuel transactions for Q4, 2016, these pathway FPCs will remain active in the LRT-CBTS through the end of the reporting period for Q4, 2016. An excel spreadsheet of all pathways which were not recertified can be obtained from the LCFS website at https://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/fuelpathways/pathwaytable.htm. This sheet will be separate from an excel spreadsheet that includes pathways with active CIs for reporting purposes. Fuel pathways recertified in 2016 and all new pathway applications certified in 2016 using the CA-GREET 2.0 model are not subject to the current deactivation date. Applicants who intend to pursue new fuel pathways may submit Tier 1 or Tier 2 applications using the AFP. Please consult the following guidance document when applying for a new pathway: https://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/lcfs/fuelpathways/newpathway-01062016.pdf If you have any questions about fuel pathway CIs, please contact Anil Prabhu, Manager, Fuels Evaluation Section, Transportation Fuels Branch at (916) 445-9227 or via e-mail at Anil.Prabhu@arb.ca.gov. The Low Carbon Fuel Standard, a regulation to reduce the carbon intensity of fuels sold in California ten percent by 2020, is one of the measures adopted by the California Air Resources Board, 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 to improve California's energy security and energy independence. California is in a drought emergency. Visit www.SaveOurH2O.org for water conservation tips.
