THANK YOU SENATOR THIS IS DAN
ADLER SENIOR ADVISOR FOR
CLIMATE FINANCE WITH THE
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF BUSINESS
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. ALSO
WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH THE
INFRASTRUCTURE BANK ON THE
FUNDING CHANNELS FUNDS FOR YOUR
COMMUNITY HERE TODAY WITH YOU
AND YOURS IN BALTIMORE WE'RE
TRYING TO DO WITH THE CATALYST
FUND- IN GENERAL AND MORE
SPECIFICALLY IN THIS ISSUE
VERY. INCOME SUPPORT ACT. BUT
BRINKLEY AND THE THAT I HAVE I
WANT TO GET. OVERVIEW OF THE
GOAL HERE IN A IS TO CREATE A
SIGNET WHAT WE THINK IS A
SIGNIFICANT NEW TOOL IN THE
STATE'S TOOL SET HER DRESSING
CLIMATE AND ADVANCING EQUITABLE
INFRASTRUCTURE. IT IS IN THE
MODE OF DEVELOPMENT FINANCE
MEANING ASSERTIVE APPROACH TO
ALLOCATING PUBLIC CAPITAL
FINANCING THE PUBLIC INTEREST
BUT IN A WAY THAT USES
FINANCIAL DISCIPLINE AND
LEVERAGES PRIVATE SECTOR
PARTICIPATION TO ACHIEVE MUCH
GREATER SCALE- THIS IS A
BUSINESS MODEL THAT EXISTS AND
NOW TWELVE OTHER STATES AND
WE'RE NOT PROBABLY KNOWN AS
GREEN BANKS. AND IS INCREASING
IN POPULARITY AROUND THE WORLD
INCLUDING A FEDERAL LEVEL- WE
CAN BUILD INTO THAT AS YOU LIKE.
YOUR CAL HAS YOU IN THE COUNTRY
IS THE EXISTING STATE
INFRASTRUCTURE BANK. WHICH HAS
MOBILIZED OVER FORTY BILLION
DOLLARS IN CAPITAL OVER ITS
LIFE INCLUDING NEARLY A BILLION
DOLLARS IN DIRECT LENDING. AND
HAS AN ESTABLISHED AFTER
PROFESSIONALS THAT ARE MAKING
IMPORTANT CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS
TO THE STATE'S INFRASTRUCTURE
GOALS. ANY OBJECTIVE HERE IS TO
HANG THAT AT OUR CLIMATE AND
RESILIENCY INFRASTRUCTURE
CHALLENGES- WITH THE PRINCIPAL
OBJECTIVE OF LEVERAGING PRIVATE
MONEY SO I KNOW THERE'S BEEN
SOME CONSIDERATION AND CONCERN
AROUND CROWDING OUT PRIVATE
CAPITAL WITH THIS APPROACH.
IT'S QUITE THE CONTRARY BY
PARTICIPATING STRATEGICALLY
WITH LIMITED AMOUNTS OF
TARGETED PUBLIC MONEY. WE
BELIEVE WE CAN OPEN UP. PRIVATE
CAPITAL AND SIGNIFICANT
MULTIPLES THE VISION TO ACHIEVE
OUR ON OUR HANDS. BECAUSE WE
RECOGNIZE WILL NEVER GET WHERE
WE NEED TO BE JUST ON PUBLIC
MONEY HELLO. SO HEARD I SEVENTY
WHICH WERE PASSED SUMMER. THIS
IS. AIMED AT SETTING A DATE SET
UP THE FRAMEWORK FOR OTHER
CHANNELS FONG WILL OPERATE. IN
AS OPPOSED TO LAST YEAR'S
EFFORT WHICH WAS A TOP DOWN
LARGE SCALE FUNDING APPROACH
THIS IS GOING SECTOR BY SECTOR
RETHINK WE HAVE REAL
OPPORTUNITIES. TO UNLOCK
MARKETS AND ADVANCE THE STATE'S
POLICY GOALS IN PARTNERSHIP
WITH OUR OUR AGENCY COLLEAGUES
WERE SETTING THE POLICY
UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR
TECHNOLOGY AND WORK CLOSELY
WITH THE COMMUNITIES THIS IS A
FUN PICKING UP. ACTUATE THOSE
POLICY GOALS. IN THIS SECTOR IN
PARTICULAR WHICH CONTRIBUTES
DOCUMENTARY PERCENT STAGE
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. WE
SEE SOME REAL NEEDS FOR CAPITAL
AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT IN
METHANE MANAGEMENT IN ORGANIC
WASTE OF GOOD PROCESSING IN
PARTICULAR. BUT WE ALSO SEE THE
REAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THE SECTOR
TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE STATE'S
GREENHOUSE. GREENHOUSE GAS AND
CLEAN ENERGY GOALS. WITH CLEAN
RENEWABLE ENERGY WITHHYDROGEN
PRODUCTION ADVANCED BIOFUELS
MARC SOIL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
ALL THESE ARE TECHNOLOGIES THAT
ARE MATURE. BUT NEED A NUDGE TO
GET THE PRIVATE MORTGAGE
SUBJECT. TO TAKE OFF AND FUND
THE MASCARA. OUR OUR REGION BUT-
RUBIO THAT THERE IS A- INTEREST
PROJECT. ACROSS THE CLAIMANTS
MORE AGRICULTURE SPACE- DID ON
THE GOVERNOR. AND IN. FROM
SERIES CAPITAL PROVIDERS IN THE
PRIVATE SECTOR THAT SEE THIS AS
PART OF THIS IS DANIEL ECONOMY
OF THE FUTURE. AND LOCAL
PARTICIPATION CALIFORNIA
MARKETS WHERE THEY CAN MANAGE
IT- AND THIS AMOUNT OF PUBLIC
MONEY CAN MARRY WITH THEIR
PRIVATE CAPITAL AGAIN
INSIGNIFICANT. THIS IS THE
PASSED IN FOR THEM AND THEY
NEED A PARTNERSHIP FROM GOBIZ
IN IRAQ- LASTLY MY WAY ENTERED.
I BUT THERE WAS SOME QUESTIONS
ABOUT WHY THIS CATEGORY COULD
NOT APPEAR IN THE SEC REPORT
THIS RICHARD ROTH COUNCIL
REPORT- AS WE WERE PUTTING
FORWARD TO CONCEPTS FOR TWENTY
TWENTY ONE. AB SEVENTY EIGHT WE
HAVE A LIST THAT WAS ROUGHLY IN
LINE WITH THE GOVERNOR'S
EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND THE HIGH
LEVEL POSSIBLE THE STATE.
WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP ON THE
FIRE SIDE IN PARTICULAR FOR
FORCED BINANCE UTILIZATION THE
PREPARE THE REPORT PRESS YOU
SEE AND THEN WERE MADE AWARE
THAT CDFA HAD AN INTEREST IN
WORKING WITH OUR BANK FOR
SIMILAR PURPOSES. IT WAS TOO
LATE TO PUT IT IN THE REPORT WE
DID BRIEFLY SEC ON THAT
OPPORTUNITY. AND IT WAS
PROBABLY ENDORSE. I THINK
THAT'S ANY- EXAMPLE OF KEYBOARD.
THAT THIS FUND CAN ENABLE AT
THE STATE LEVEL. WITH FOUR
DEPARTMENT OF ON THE FOR SIDING
WITH CDFA LOOKING AT THIS ONE
VEHICLE AS IMPORTANT TO ADVANCE
THEIR GOALS. YEAH I MAKING THE
CATALYST FUNDER VOICE FOR THAT
PARTNERSHIP. BEGAN DRIVING
LEVERAGE ADVANCING POLICY GOALS
CREDIT CROWDING IN PRIVATE
CAPITAL AND HOPEFULLY ENGAGING
IN A MINISTER OF STRATEGIC
CONVERSATION WITH YOURSELF AND
ARE YOU. SEE COLLEAGUES. FIGURE
OUT THE BEST WAY TO ALLOCATE
THAT MONEY GOING FORWARD. THANK
YOU- AS OUTLINED IN THIS IN THE
STAFF REPORT YOU KNOW WHEN
BEFORE WE GET TO THE ALLEY- AND
I KNOW YOU KNOW YOU'RE THERE.
YOU KNOW LAST YEAR WE PASSED
LEGISLATION THAT SPECIFICALLY
SAID THAT WE WILL FUND IS FROM
NON STATE. FUNDS NON
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS THAT WAS THE
DEAL. THAT WAS MADE. NOW SIX
MONTHS LATER. THE GOVERNOR'S
COMING BACK WITH NOT ONLY
FUNDING IT WOULD STAY FUNDS. A
BUT FINDING IT CONTINUOUSLY
WITH STATE FUNDS B. AND THEN
EARLY ACTION SO IT'S- I GUESS
THE QUESTION WILL BE ASKED IS.
IS WHAT GOOD DID THE DECISIONS
THAT WE MAKE AT THE END OF THE
YEAR IN THE BUDGET YEAR WHEN.
THE LESSONS A HALF A YEAR LATER
WE'RE COMING BACK WITH THE
ENTIRE THE ENTIRELY OPPOSITE.
AND PUT ASIDE. THE VALUE OF A
GREEN BANK AND ALL THAT CAMPUS
OF JUST A REGULAR. THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE
LEGISLATURE. AND THE GOVERNOR
CAN YOU ADDRESS THAT. SURE I
CAN GIVE YOU. OF MY PERSPECTIVE
THAT IN THE COURSE OF. WHAT WAS
A FAIRLY EASY TO GO. PREVIOUS
EIGHT LAST YEAR WHICH MEANT
THAT. WAS AIMED AT SETTING A
FRAMEWORK AND DISSIPATING BUT
FEDERAL STIMULUS IN THE NEAR
TERM. WE NEED TO SET THIS ONE
UP TO RECEIVE. THOSE DOLLARS.
THE DESIGN OF THE LANGUAGE
DESIGN IF YOU LIKE LANDED ON
FEDERAL ONLY. AND IN MY
JUDGMENT WENT TOO FAR IN
PRECLUDING FOR ALL TIME THAT
THE POSSIBILITY OF STATE
ALLOCATION TO SUPPLEMENT. THOSE
FEDERAL DOLLARS. BOB SO IT WAS
DEFINITELY THE NEGOTIATION BUT
I THINK IT WAS. AN OVERSTAFFED
AND THIS IS A CHANCE TO
RECONSIDER THAT AND SAY AND IN
SPECIFIC LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES.
WOULD IT MAKE SENSE TO PUT
STATE DOLLARS WELL INTO THIS
ONCE ABOUT THAT IS THERE. THE
REQUESTED HE LIKE TO RECONSIDER
THAT A TERMINATION WHICH IN MY
JUDGMENT WAS MADE A LITTLE BIT
HASTILY AT THE ELEVENTH HOUR.
THIS PHARMACY. APPROPRIATION OR
CONTINUOUS FLOWING FUNDS. IT'S
A ONE TIME ALLOCATION. WITHOUT
ASKING AT THIS STAGE FOR
FURTHER ALLOCATIONS FOR THE
SECTOR. THE BEAUTY OF THE ROBOT
FUND IS THEY WANT MONEY IS THE-
TO THE- EN ROUTE BE READ. BUT
THERE'S NO CONTINUOUS. FROM THE
GENERAL FUND. IN THIS CASE- AND
THEN LASTLY FOR THE URGENCY
MEASURE DATA. WANTED TO THE
FORCE PRIVATE SECTOR. IS REALLY
RESPONDING TO THE NEEDS OF YOU
USE THIS FOR SPEECH ACT MORE
AGGRESSIVELY. FREE MARKETS TO
DRAWDOWN OF THE WILDFIRE RISK
IT HAS A CHANCE TO DO SOME
EARLY ACTION TO DECREASE
WILDFIRE RISK IS NOT GONNA
SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF COURSE.
BUT IT IS URGENT AND SO I THINK
THAT'S WHY IT SHOWS UP IN YOUR
EARLY ACTION BUDGET ITEM FOR
HORSE THE PRESS ALWAYS JUMP
JUMP INTO THE WILDFIRE. PORTION
OF DEATH THE GROUP IS- A ONE
LAST. TIME IS. MR WU MY BANK IN.
WANT TO GO ON ALEJO. YES I I'M
HERE. GREAT GO AHEAD PLEASE YOU
HAVE. THEN I WOULD CONCUR WITH
WITH DAN EXPRESS THAT WAY AND-
THE I'M CAL'S FONG WAS SET UP
LAST BUDGET CYCLE. HE WAS IN
LIGHT OF THE PENDING AND- STILL
THERE WERE WORK ONE IN THEIR
WAY THROUGH BOTH THE U. S.
SENATE AND U. S. HOUSE WE WERE
ALL HOPEFUL THAT THOSE ONE OF
THOSE GOALS WE GET PAST THAT
WOULD PROVIDE CAPITAL FOR THE
CLIMBING HILLS FINE. AS WELL
WHERE NONE OF THEM HAD PASSED
IN THE SECOND HALF OF LAST YEAR
BUT THEY ARE ACTUALLY AT THE
TABLE AS WE SPEAK RIGHT NOW.
GOING TO THE HOUSE FOR A VOTE
ACTUALLY ON FRIDAY AND SO THERE
THERE MAY BE FEDERAL FUNDS ON
THE WAY BUT IN THE ABSENCE OF
THAT. YEAH I WORK VERY HARD
WITH DYNAMIC TEAM AND THEY GO
BIZ WORK WITH OTHER AGENCIES
ABOUT OTHER SOURCES OF
PERSPECTIVE FINDING THE
CHEAPEST SIMILAR GOALS AND
THEREBY NECESSITATING THIS SET
OF CHANGES. THAT WE WERE OPENED
UP FOR TODAY. OKAY OUR- GOOD
MORNING THIS IS A BRAND WHETHER
FORD WITH THE LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE- REGARDING THE
CLIMATE FUND CATALYST IN
GENERAL LAST YEAR- WHEN THE
ADMINISTRATION PROPOSED TO
ESTABLISH THE FUND AT THE TIME
WE NOTED IT COULD BE AN
APPROPRIATE WAY TO INCREASE THE
AMOUNT OF. PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
INVESTMENT FOR CLIMATE
MITIGATION AND ADAPTATION
PROJECTS. WE DID HAVE SOME
CONCERNS HOWEVER AND SUGGESTED
THAT IF YOU WERE INTERESTED IN
THIS CONCEPT THAT THE
LEGISLATURE FIRST FUND A PILOT
PROJECT. AND THIS PROPOSAL AND
THE- THE FORCE PROPOSAL ALONG
WITH THAT ARE CENTRALLY SUCH A
PILOT PROJECT. SO REGARDING
THIS PROPOSAL SPECIFICALLY-
ADVISER ADLER MENTIONED- THAT
THE AGRICULTURE SECTOR IS A
SOURCE OF GREENHOUSE GAS FUNDS
IN THAT THERE ARE- IT'S
ACTUALLY PROJECTS THAT- COULD
BENEFIT FROM LOW COST LOANS. TO
HELP THESE PROJECTS- MOVE
FORWARD. AND YOU KNOW MISTER
ADLER ADDRESSED OUR CONCERNS
ABOUT HOW THIS PROJECT FITS IN
WITH THE STATE'S OVERALL
CLIMATE. AND STRATEGY AS HE
NOTED WAS NOT MENTIONED IN THE
LIST OF. HIGH PRIORITY- ITEMS-
IDENTIFIED BY THE STRATEGIC
PRESS COUNCIL BUT- HE HAS
EXPLAINED- THIS MORNING-
WIDEOUT WHY THAT CAME ABOUT-
REGARDING THE CONCERNS YOU
RAISED- YES THE LEGISLATURE DID
NOT INCLUDE- INCLUDED LANGUAGE
THAT NO STATE FUNDS WERE TO BE
USED FOR THE FUND. THE
ADMINISTRATION IS PROPOSING A
CHANGE TO STATUTE TO ALLOW THE
PHONE TO ACCEPT STATE FUNDS SO
THIS IS- AN OPPORTUNITY- FOR
THE LEGISLATURE TO REEVALUATE
WHETHER THEY WANT TO FUND THIS-
YOU PROGRAM OR NOT IF THE
LEGISLATURE DOES APPROVE
FUNDING FOR THE CLIMATE CATTLE
SPEND WE WOULD RECOMMEND
EXPANDING SLIGHTLY THE
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. I'M TO
HELP YOU ASSESS THE OUTCOMES OF
THIS NEW PROGRAM. IS IT IS A
CONCERN FROM THE AUDIO ON THE-
MECHANISM FOR THE FUNDING YOU
KNOW IT'S A SEEMS LIKE THEY
THERE'S BEEN EVIDENCE THAT
THERE'S THESE LOANS THAT THEY
CAN GET IN THE AGRICULTURAL
SECTOR OR SKY HIGH INTEREST
RATES AND THIS WOULD ALLOW THE
LENDING OR IS IT THE PARTICULAR
PROJECTS THAT BY BANKS WERE.
FOUND TO BE AS WE WOULD CHOOSE
WITHIN THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR.
IT'S MORE THE FORMER IT'S THAT-
ITS STATE. LOANS FOR PRIVATE
PROJECTS CAN BE DEPENDING ON ON
THE RISK IN THE- FAMILIARITY OF
THE MARKET WITH SERVICE
PROJECTS CAN BE ALL OVER THE
PLACE FOR- SOME PROJECTS THERE
MIGHT BE LOWER COST FINANCING
AVAILABLE BUT THOSE PROJECTS
MAY NOT NEED THE SORT OF
FUNDING AND OUR CONCERN IS THAT
THIS FUND- DEPENDING ON THAT
THE TYPES OF PROJECTS IN THE
RISKINESS. IT MAY EITHER BE. IF
IT'S IF IT'S- IF REPLACING A
VERY HIGH INTEREST RATE LOANS
THAT PROJECT MIGHT BE RISKY AND%
THEN THIS THE FUND WILL NOT BE
REPAIRED AND IT CAN'T BE SELF
SUSTAINING AS ENVISIONED. AND
IF THE PROJECTS ARE. TOO SAFE
THEN THEY PROBABLY DO HAVE
ACCESS TO PRIVATE CAPITAL THE
SPEND COULD BE SERVING TO CROWD
OUT SO WE'RE THIS FUND IS
POSITIONING ITSELF IS IN THE
MIDDLE- TO CROWD IN PRIVATE
CAPITAL. AND WHAT WHAT WE'RE
SUGGESTING IS THAT IT WOULD BE
GOOD TO START WITH A SMALLER
PROGRAMS SUCH AS THIS- LAST
LECTURES PROGRAM HAVE MUCH
BROADER. SCOPE SO- SO IF YOU
PRACTICE YOU CAN- HOPEFULLY
COLLECT DATA TO SEE THAT THE
PROJECTS BEING FUNDED ARE IN
THAT SWEET SPOT AND THAT WE ARE
CROWDING OUT PRIVATE CAPITAL OR
TAKING ON TOO MUCH RISK
EXCELLENT ADVICE- CHAIR DOLLY.
AND THEN CENTER STERN. THE YOU
MR CHAIRMAN I MY FIRST. IS WHAT
WHAT ARE THE FEDS BRINGING TO
THE TABLE WHAT WHAT I MEAN IN
THE LEGISLATION I I'M NOT SEEN
OUT IS IT JUST DOLLARS FOR THE
POLICY. AT THIS STAGE OF ITS
BEING SHAPED AND DESCRIBED AS
THE CLEAN ENERGY AND
SUSTAINABILITY ACCELERATOR
WHICH REALLY HAS TWO
COMPONENTS. WELL NUMBER ONE
IT'S A SIGNIFICANT DOLLAR
FIGURE SO CORONER DEUCE IN BOTH
CHAMBERS AND THAT'S NOW
PARTISAN SUPPORT. HUNDRED
BILLION DOLLARS TO FUND
CRITICAL CLIMATE INFRASTRUCTURE
FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. OF
BY AND I WAS NEWLY ESTABLISHED
INDEPENDENT NONPROFIT GREEN
BACK. BUT THE BULK OF THE WORK
WILL BE TO FLOW CAPITAL TO STAY
GREEN BACKS- IN A RANGE OF
CATEGORIES WHICH BROADLY
REFLECT THE STATE'S GOING TO
PRIORITIES AND STOPPING PLAN
ELSEWHERE- GET INTO A IN A LOW
COST REVOLVING LOAN PURCHASES
SUCH AS THE ONE PRESCRIBING
HERE. THERE'S A COMPONENT OF
POLICY PRESCRIPTION THAT 40% OF
THE CAPITAL TREAT UNDERSERVED
MARKETS AND DRIVE INCLUSION BUT
BEYOND THAT IT'S NOT
STIPULATING POLICY GOALS FOR
THE CLIMATE SECTOR OTHER THAN
WHAT IS ALREADY. IN THE
INDIVIDUAL STATE LAWS. HE SAID
HUNDRED BILL. UNDER BILL TOTAL.
THIS WOULD BE TO WHAT WOULD
CONSIDERED CRITICAL NATIONAL
INFRASTRUCTURE THINK ABOUT
LARGE SCALE TRANSMISSION. TEXAS
VERSUS WHAT CLOSE TO THE
STATE'S RETURN. I'LL THAT HAS
NOT BEEN DETERMINED YET THAT'S
THE TOP LINE NUMBER. SO I
NOTICED THAT COMMENTS THANK YOU
FOR THAT INFORMATION- I'M I'M
PRETTY ON BOARD WITH YOU KNOW
DOING INCENTIVES BUT HI I
SOMEBODY UP FOR SOME OF ARMOR
NUMBER ONE NUMBER TWO. I LIVE
IN THE FOREST AND IT'S BURNING
DOWN EVERY DAY AND THERE'S ALL
KINDS OF- TECHNOLOGIES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE I THINK I MENTIONED
IT WAS THE LAST. TIME WE ARE
HEARING THAT YOU KNOW THERE'S-
THEY'RE TAKING RICE STRAW AND
MAKING PRESS BORED OUT OF IT
AND THE REASON THEY'RE DOING
THAT AND THIS IS PRIVATE.
INVESTMENT NO HELP FROM THE
GOVERNMENT. NOT BECAUSE THEY
HAVE A CONTINUOUS SUPPLY OF
RICE STRAW THE FARMERS NEED
SOMEPLACE TO GO WITH IT AND-
IT'S REDUCING CARBON. IT'S
DOING EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED TO
DO. IN THIS CASE WE'RE WE'RE
INCENTIVIZING HAVE NO PROBLEM
WITH THAT BUT IT'S THE POLICY.
THAT CAUSES THE PROBLEM. IT IS
A POLICY NOT CAL A CALIFORNIA
PROBLEM IS IF IT'S IF FOR THIS
60% OF THE LAND IT'S MANAGED IN
CALIFORNIA BY THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT. THE POLICIES ARE
HORRIBLE IN THE SUPPLY OF
PRODUCT. LET ME GIVE AN EXAMPLE
SO THE FOR SERVICE WHAT DOES
PROJECTS BUT I CALM SPLAT
THERE'S PROJECT HERE THERE'S A
PROJECT A HUNDRED MILES AWAY.
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE FIFTY MILES
AWAY AND THERE'S NO CONTINUOUS
SUPPLY. OF THIS WOODY BIOMASS
THAT IS DESPERATELY NEEDED TO
BEAT THEM DOWN THE FOREST. AND
SO ONE OF THE PROBLEMS THAT WE
NEED IS ONE OF THE THINGS WE
NEED TO DRESS IS. WE NEED TO GO
FIRST IN MY OPINION WE NEED TO
GO WATERSHED BY WATERSHED TO
TAKE A WATERSHED. AND WE SAY
OKAY WE'RE GONNA TREAT THIS
WATERSHED. SO WE DIDN'T THEIR
SERVE DIFFERENT WATERSHEDS IN
CALIFORNIA. WE SAY OKAY W'RE
TALKING ON THIS WATER SHOULD WE
DO A. THE STEWARDSHIP CONTRACT
SO THIS SAYS THE FOR SERVICE
WILL SUPPLY. THE COMMODITY THAT
COMES OUT OF THIS WATERSHED IS
SOON AS YOU GET THAT DONE. WHAT
WE NEED WE NEED SOME REASON
HELP FROM THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT HER TO SAY WE'RE
GONNA DO THIS THE PRIVATE
INVESTMENT IS THERE THE
TECHNOLOGY IS THERE TO DO THESE
OTHER THEIR THIRD OF BIO FUEL
PLANT IN LAKEVIEW OREGON
HUNDRED MILES FROM MY HOME THAT
IS MAKING. BIOENERGY OP OF
FORCED RESIDUE- SO I THINK FOR
US IT'S MORE OF A POLICY FIXED
AND IT IS A MONEY FIX WE NEED
TO SAY HEY WE'RE GONNA GO
WATERSHED BY WATERSHED
ENTREATIES WATERSHEDS WE CAN
THROW MONEY AT IT ALL DAY LONG
AND WE'RE NEVER GOING TO GET
PRIVATE INVESTMENT PRIVATE
PEOPLE WILL COME WHEN THEY CAN
GO TO THEIR BANK. AND THEY CAN
TELL THE BANK HEY I HAVE A
TWENTY FIVE YEAR SUPPLY OF
PRODUCT THAT WE CAN TURN INTO
YOU KNOW WHATEVER BIOFUELS YOU
NAME IT BUT THEY'RE NOT GONNA
PUT THAT INVESTMENT IN THERE
UNTIL WE HAVE SOME MATURITY.
THAT THEY'RE GONNA GET THE
FEEDSTOCK. SO THAT'S THAT'S MYCOMMENTS HAVE BEEN PUSHING ON
THIS AND I AT SOME POINT WE
NEED TO HAVE AS LIKE. FIGURE
OUT A WAY TO GET THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT HERE IN TO THE TABLE
AND FIGURE OUT HOW WE'RE GOING
TO GO MANAGE THE 60% LANDED IS
BURNING UP. YOU KNOW. WE SEE.
BILL AFTER BILL COMING THROUGH
THIS HOUSE. ABOUT WILDLIFE MEAN
WE'RE STOP WHATEVER THE BEAR
BILL TOP HONEY BEAR I WANT TO
SHARE WITH YOU FOUR MILLION
ACRES BURNED UP LAST YEAR MORE
WILDLIFE GOT DESTROYED LAST
YEAR IN HABITAT. FROM FIRE.
THEN WILL EVER DO BY HUNTING OR
FISHING OR WHATEVER THE HECK
ELSE WE'RE DOING WE NEED TO
TAKE CARE OF OUR OUR- OF OUR
MEADOWS IN OUR IN OUR STREAMS.
AND THAT IS BY PUTTING FIRE
BREAKS IN SO THAT WE CAN MANAGE
OUR FOR SO I JUST WANT TO GET
THAT OUT IN THE OPEN IT'S
FRUSTRATING IS HACKED. TO
ALWAYS FOCUS ON THE MONEY. AND
NEVER FOCUS ON THE POLICY. FOR
STERN. THANKS MISTER CHAIR GOOD
TO BE PHYSICALLY WITH YOU YES
IT IS NICE YEAH YEAH- IT
DOESN'T MISS AT MISTER WU- I
GUESS BUILDING ON- MY FROM THE
NORTH QUEST OR POINT- YOU KNOW
THE SAN PASSED. EARLY I DIDN'T
KNOW ALL THE WAY THIS BUT I THE
BILL YEAR BETWEEN FIFTY TO
ESTABLISH A CLAIM A CATALYST
FUND IN LAW- THAT HAD OF. SORT
OF BROADER MANDATE THEN. THEN I
GUESS WE'RE SEEING HERE TODAY-
IN TERMS OF SORT OF GOING
SECTOR BY SECTOR WITH SOME
PARTICULAR MARKET INTERVENTIONS
INTO. TRYING TO. ESTABLISH MORE
OF A HOLISTIC. VIEW OF WHAT
LEVERAGING CAN BE- AND WHAT.
SORT OF MARKET DEVELOPMENT CAN
BE AND HOW WE WANT TO
PARTICIPATE AS A AS PUBLIC
ENTITIES SO THE LEGISLATION
ACTUALLY. WOULD HAVE BEEN
SPECIFICALLY STRUCTURED AROUND-
PUBLIC CAPITAL NOT PRIVATE
CAPITAL IN THE BUDGET DEAL IS
THE CHAIR POINTED OUT THE
BUDGET DEAL FLIP THAT ON ITS
HEAD AND SAID. NO ACTUALLY IT'S
LIKE A FEDERAL RECEIVING
PROGRAM AND THAT'S WE HAVEN'T
LAW RIGHT NOW I THINK THERE'S
SOME OF THE FRUSTRATION YOU'RE
HEARING IS. THERE A WILLING
WILLINGNESS IN THE LEGISLATURE
TO ENGAGE AND GET HANDS ON
ABOUT NOT JUST THE STRUCTURE
THE AUTHORITY BUT TO MAKE SURE
THE UNDERLYING POLICY
ARCHITECTURES. THAT SORT OF DR
VISSER COHESIVE- SO AS WE'RE
DEBATING. AGRICULTURE AND YOU
KNOW THIS SORT OF. ANY USE
FEEDSTOCK MARKET DEPLOYMENT AND
THE WILD FIRE PECES WELL- I
JUST I'M CURIOUS HOW ARE YOU
GUYS AT THE AT THE CATALYST
TRYING TO ALSO LOOK AT SORT OF
THE BROADER MARKET PLACE AND
LOOK AT WHERE YOU SEE
OPPORTUNITIES IN CALIFORNIA IF
THAT HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS
DOES SHOW UP AND- THE I MEAN IS
A ONE POINT FIVE TRILLION
DOLLAR INFRASTRUCTURE PACKAGE
AND I THINK YEAH THE HUNDRED
BILLION WAS IN THE BIG BIG.
THANK YOU BETTER SPACE YOU
MENTIONED THE DEPTH OF THE
TOTAL DOLLAR FIGURES LOOKING
EVEN BIGGER THAN THAT BUT ARE
YOU GUYS LOOKING MORE BROADLY
AT- WHAT IS CLIMATE CATALYST
CAN DO AND I GUESS WHAT THE
POLICY GAPS ARE THAT YOU SEE.
IN HIBBING YOUR ABILITY TO DO
MORE I THINK THAT KIND OF
INTERFACE OF THE LEGISLATURE IN
BRINGING BACK SOME OF THOSE KEY
ITEMS OUR RECOMMENDATIONS ARE
OPPORTUNITIES WOULD HELP PUT
SOME MEAT ON THE BONES OPPOSE
JUST SORT OF. THINKING ABOUT
ALL THIS SO HYPOTHETICALLY SO
JUST IT DIDN'T COMMENT ON THAT
MR WE WERE MISTER ADLER JUST
THE BROADER BROADER PURPOSE AND
SORT OF HOW TO HOW TO MAKE IS
THERE ANY TEND TO MAKE THIS
ARCHITECTURE PERMANENT- OR DO
YOU RY TO JUST ENVISIONED THE
STATE ROLE JUST BEING. SMART
AGRICULTURE AND WILDFIRE. FOR
NOW AND YOU'RE NOT GONNA TOUCH
EVERYTHING ELSE. YES THANK YOU
SENATOR STERN SO LAST YEAR THE
ADMINISTRATION'S INITIAL
INTENT. WAS MORE ALONG THE
LINES THAT YOU JUST EXPRESSED.
A MUCH LARGER MUCH BROADER A
STATE FUNDED A VEHICLE THAT
WOULD HAVE. A MANDATE TO LOOK
ACROSS TIME TO CHANGE
ALLEGORIES. AND BE IMPACTFUL
WHEREVER- IT'S ALL I NEED.
GIVEN THE BUDGET SITUATION THAT
AROSE. EARLY LAST SPRING- THOSE
FUNDS I DIDN'T MATERIALIZE. AND
THEREFORE WE ARE NOT LIMITED.
IN OUR SCOPE BY THE FUNDS THAT
ARE MADE AVAILABLE. AND SO WE
WILL USE THESE FUNDS. VERY
PROPERLY LOOK FOR OPT. TO
PROVIDE DEMONSTRATION OF FACTS
AS A CATALYST TO DEMONSTRATE
BOTH THE DEMAND AND NEED AND
THE ABILITY OF OUR PROGRAM TO
MAKE AN IMPACT AND THEN
CONTINUED DURING THAT PROCESS
TO SEEK ADDITIONAL ARGUED THAT
MAY BE MORE GENERAL PURPOSE TO
SERVE A BROADER RANGE OF FIVE
EXHIBITS. I'LL ALSO TURNED OVER
TO MR OUT THERE TO- RESPOND.
DIRECTOR WHO AND THANK YOU FOR
THE QUESTION CENTER STERN IT'S
ABSOLUTELY THE INTENT TO CREATE
PURPOSE MEANING THE ENTIRETY OF
THE CLIMATE INFRASTRUCTURE
CHALLENGE THAT WAS THE
APPROACH. THAT WE UNDERTOOK
LAST YEAR AND FOR ALL THE
OBVIOUS REASONS DID NOT HAVE A
CHANCE TO ENGAGE SO MUCH WITH
THE LEGISLATURE ON THE DESIGN
OF THAT IN THE DETAILS BUT IT
IS THE INTERNET AND WE THINK WE%
CAN GET THERE BY BUILDING UP
FROM BEST. BUY LEVEL TEST IN
SPECIFIC SECTORS BUT WE DO HAVE
A VIEW OF WHERE CAPITAL NEEDS
TO FLOW FOR THE BROADER MARKET
WE CONTINUE TO COLLECT INBOUND
OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVESTMENT
ACROSS WHAT I THINK WE- WOULD
CONSIDER THE ENTIRE CLIMATE
INFRASTRUCTURE AGENDA. BOB AND
IT IS IMPORTANT TO THE ACTUALLY
THE CENTERS PART QUESTION NOT
GENERATION THIS IS PAIRED WITH
FUNCTIONALITY AT GOBIZ BY WHICH
THOSE TWO CRITICAL THINGS THE
FUNDS SO THAT I MAY BUT THE
CATALYST PROGRAM HAS TWO
COMPONENTS THAT GO IS. ONE OF
WHICH IS THE DEEP SECTOR
UNDERSTANDING THAT IS REQUIRED
TO KNOW WHERE THESE CAPITAL
GAPS ARE WHERE ENTREPRENEURSHIP
IS CHALLENGING WHERE WE MIGHT
LEVERAGE OTHER PARTNERSHIPS-
AND FIGURE OUT WHAT THOSE
MARKETING BARRIERS ARE
PARTICULAR. ISSUES VIDAK IN THE
FOR SECTOR AND OTHER PIECES
GOVERNMENTAL COORDINATION ALL
THE STATE AGENCY RELATIONSHIPS
BIGELOW RELATIONSHIP STATE
FEDERAL AND WISELY POINTED OUT
WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE'RE
OPTIMIZING FOR THAT AND
CRITICALLY ALLOCATING PUBLIC
GRANTS TO SUPPORT BY THE
CAPITAL AND PUBLIC CAPITAL
FORMATION. SO THIS IS THIS IS
ABSOLUTELYINTENDED TO ACHIEVE
THAT KIND OF SCALE WE'RE
LOOKING AT PROCESSES LIKE THIS
COPING PLAN FOR SIGNALS ABOUT
WHERE. THE STATE'S
INFRASTRUCTURE PRIORITIES LIE.
AND IT IS FUN CAN SCALE TO
ACHIEVE THAT BUILDING FROM THIS
TARGETED SET OF INTERVENTIONS
THAT ARE UP FRONT OF US NOW.
BASED ON THE AGENCY
PARTNERSHIPS IN THESE TWO
INITIAL SEX. THANK FOR THAT
INSIGHT I INCLUDING A JUST I
WOULD OUT SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT
AS A PERHAPS SHOULD BE USED
WHEN WE THINK THE ROOF-
RECOMMENDATION THAT ELIO. NOT
TO THINK OF REPORT BACK ON THE
PILOTS BUT- HI I'D LOVE TO SEE
SOMETHING. LIKE SIR PROACTIVE
LOOKING IS U. S. AS YOU SAY
ASSESS INBOUND INVESTMENT
OPPORTUNITIES OR SS THE FEDERAL
LANDSCAPE. SOME KIND OF SCOPING
OF WHAT'S POSSIBLE WITH AN
ANTICIPATED FEDERAL INJECTION
OF REVENUE AND COME TO THE
LEGISLATURE AND PRESENT US WITH
SOME KIND OF REPORT OR ANALYSIS
THAT THEN. WE COULD THEN BRING
IN OUR FEDERAL PARTNERS AND
ACTUALLY HAVE A LITTLE MORE OF
A COHESIVE PLANNING PROCESS SO
THAT YOU KNOW WE KIND OF GET
OUR HEADS AROUND OKAY WE'RE
GONNA SPEND SAY A HUNDRED
MILLION NOW. BUT THEN. YOU KNOW
TEN BILLIONS COMING BY AUGUST
WILL THAT'S A VERY DIFFERENT
LOOKING CLIMATE CATALYST THEN.
YOU KNOW TO PILOT PROGRAM SO I
THINK PROACTIVE REPORTING
ANALYSIS WOULD BE USEFUL
SOMEONE FOR THE CHAIR TO
CONSIDER THAT'S A OOD POINT
SINCE WE'RE GOING TO HOLD THIS
MATTER THAT'S A GOOD
OPPORTUNITY FOR COPAYS AND THEY
HAVE BEEN TO GET BACK TO
CENTER. MCGUIRE THANK YOU SO
MUCH YOU'RE A CASCADE NO TIME
IS LIMITED AND WE'RE GOING TO
HOLD THIS ISSUE OPEN BUT I
WANTED TO ONCE AGAIN JUST BRING
UP THE ISSU. OF SMALL FAMILY
DAIRY FARMERS BACK IN.
SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN. THIS
LEGISLATURE THEN GOVERNOR
PROVIDED NINETY NINE MILLION-
DURING. THE ADMINISTRATION THIS
ADMINISTRATION'S FIRST YEAR
WHEN IT COMES TO MATH AT FROM
MANURE MANAGEMENT TWENTY ONE
NINE MILLION DOLLARS LAST YEAR
NOTHING. NOTHING NOW WHAT WE'RE
GONNA SAYS WE GOT THIS GREAT
NEW WAYS BEING PROGRAM A FIFTY
MILLION THAT AS ADDITIONAL.
OUTLETS FOR FUNDING BESIDES HIS
MANURE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM EVEN
THOUGH THIS STATE PROMISED.
SMALL FAMILY DAIRY FARMERS THAT
WE'RE GOING TO HELP THEM
TRANSITION TO BE ABLE TO BE
CLIMATE CHANGE. AND THEY'RE
TRYING TO SELL IT CANDIDLY LIKE
THIS IS THE BEST NEW THING FOR
THEM. HERE'S THE BOTTOM LINE
DOZENS OF JERRY'S. FAMILY OWNED
DAIRIES IN THE STATE. GO OUT OF
BUSINESS EVERY YEAR. AND NOW
ARE YOU. IN ALL DID CONSULT
WITH GARY FARMERS ESPECIALLY ON
THE NORTH COAST- THAT THIS IS
GOING TO BE GOOD FOR THEM THIS
ISN'T GOOD FOR THEM. THIS MAY
BE GOOD FOR LARGER DAIRIES ARE
FEEDLOTS IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY
BUT SADLY IN EIGHTY THREE
HUNDRED HEAD DAIRY A FIVE
HUNDRED HEAD DAIRY WITH
ADDITIONAL. DEBT ESPECIALLY
WHEN THE MARKET IS SO VOLATILE-
IS LUDICROUS AND WHAT I WOULD
HOPE IS THAT WE'RE GOING TO
COME BACK TO THIS. IN THE
NEGOTIATIONS AND PROVIDE FIRM
DOLLARS ESPECIALLY WHEN IT
COMES FOR THESE ORGANIC DAIRIES
ON THE NORTH THAT HAVE
CHALLENGES WITH. A MANURE
MANAGEMENT TO BE ABLE TO DO THE
RIGHT THING- AND PROVIDE THEM
WITH ACTUAL GRANT FUNDING AS
WAS PROMISED WITH A LOWER BILL
WAS PASSED. AND ONLY PASSION
ABOUT IT BUT IT'S INCREDIBLY
FRUSTRATING AND CANDIDLY BIT
TONE DEAF. THANK YOU THANK YOU
GENTLEMEN WE'RE GOING TO HOLD
ISSUE NUMBER TEN AND MOVE ON TO
THE- DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE-
SECRETARY ROSS. AND UNDER
SECRETARY MOFFETT THIS IS ISSUE
NUMBER ELEVEN FAIRGROUNDS
OPERATIONS SUPPORT DEFERRED
MAINTENANCE. SOME OF US MAY
HAVE HEARD FROM OUR COUNTY
FAIRS BETTER APPARENTLY NOT
INCLUDED IN THE FUNDING. GO
AHEAD. THANK YOU CHAIR GOOD
MORNING SENATORS I APPRECIATE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE WITH YOU
TODAY YES THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
PROPOSES FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
FOR OPERATIONAL SUPPORT FOR
STATE AFFILIATED FAIRS AS WELL
AS TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN
DEFERRED MAINTENANCE THAT IS
OPEN TO ALL FARES- EVERYONE
KNOWS HOW DESTRUCTIVE THAT
TWENTY TWENTY WAS FOR THE
OPERATION OF MASSIVE DANCE. AND
THE SUDDEN NEED TO SHUT DOWN
ALL ACTIVITIES. AT FAIR GROUNDS
AS GATHERING PLACES HOWEVER
THEY NEEDED TO MAINTAIN
STRUCTURE AND OPERATIONS TO BE
AVAILABLE FOR EMERGENCIES AND
UNFORTUNATELY IN TWENTY TWENTY
THERE WERE CONSIDERABLE
EMERGENCY NEEDS FOR THE USE OF
THESE PUBLIC ASSETS- DURING
CULTIVATE ACTED AS- THE-
SHELTERS. FOODBANK DISTRIBUTION
TESTING SITES AS AND
VACCINATION SITES WILDFIRES AND
EVACUATIONS- AND FOR THEIR AND-
AS AS THE HIGH TEMPERATURE DAYS
AND THE POWER SHUT DOWNS THAT
ALSO REQUIRED THEM TO SERVE AS
COOLING CENTERS. STATE
AFFILIATED PLAYERS OPERATE BY
STATUTEAS A STATE ENTITY AND
ULTIMATELY THEIR FINANCIAL
OBLIGATIONS BECOME OBLIGATIONS
OF THE STATE AND THAT IS THE
JUSTIFICATION FOR THESE FUNDS
GOING TO. ONLY STATE AFFILIATED
PLAYERS FOR OPERATIONS BECAUSE
IT WILL MITIGATE THE LONG TERM
LIABILITY- FOR THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA AND THEY DO NOT HAVE
THE SAME- FLEXIBILITY AS TO BE
ABLE TO RESPOND QUITE AS
QUICKLY- WHEN UNFORTUNATELY
THEY HAD TO DO WAY OFF LIKE
THEY DID IN TWENTY TWENTY.
THAT'S A SIX TO EIGHT MONTH
PROCESS TO DO THAT AS WELL AS
SOME OF THE PROCUREMENT
OBLIGATIONS THAT WE HAVE. FIFTY
THREE OF THE SEVENTY SEVEN
PLAYERS IN THE STATE OUR STATE
AFFILIATED FAIRS FORTY TWO OF
THOSE INCLUDING CAL EXPO ARE ON
STATE OWNED ASSETS. OF THE
FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS IS FORTY
SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS FOR
OPERATIONS THROUGHOUT TWENTY
TWENTY ONE AS WELL AS THREE
MILLION DOLLARS. AND IT. OF
HEALTH OF THOSE POSH. COULD BE
USED. FOR ADDITIONAL USES THAT
COULD GENERATE OTHER REVENUE
STREAMS FOR THE FAIREST. OF THE
TEN MILLION DOLLARS IS FOR- I'M
GOING GRANT PROGRAM THAT WOULD
BE RUNNING THE LAST FEW YEARS.
TO HELP COVER IMMEDIATE
DEFERRED MAINTENANCE NEEDS WITH
REGARD TO THE MOST URGENT
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY
REQUIREMENTS. OF THE FARES-
LIKE MANY OF- ARE. LOOKING MOST
OF THEM ARE AT LEAST FIFTY
YEARS ALL. WITH SMALL TO
FACILITY THINGS LIKE STATE. OF
HEALTH AND SAY AND ELECTRICAL
WIRING- PAID. AND THINGS LIKE
THAT- AND WITH THAT I'D.
SOMEBODY'S MOVING- MIKE I
GUESS- WE CAN MOVE ON TO THE L.
L. THAT BECAUSE THE QUESTION
THAT WE HAD THIS LAST YEAR WE
TOOK THIS EMERGENCY ACTION TO
HELP THE STATE OF PHILLY
AFFAIRS COVERED THEIR- WIND
DOWN OF COMMITMENTS THAT THEY
HAD IN THEIR CONTRACT FOR
PAYROLL AND ALL THAT STUFF
STAFF REPORT SAYS IT ONLY HALF
OF IT WAS USE. THAT WE'RE
COMING BACK WITH SLIGHTLY
DIFFERENT- REQUEST BECAUSE
WE'RE ONE OF THE SOME OF THIS
MONEY COULD BE USED TO
DETERMINE WHETHER THEY CAN HELP
WITH THE KOBE PANDEMIC CAN BE
ASIDE FOR VACCINATIONS AND ALL
THAT WELL A LOT OF COUNTY FEARS
OF DOING THAT NO I COUNTY FEARS
THAT AREN'T. INCLUDED IN THIS
FUNDING REQUEST ON THEIR OWN
NICOLE ARE VACCINATING PEOPLE
ARE TESTING PEOPLE ARE
PROVIDING FOOD THIS
DISTRIBUTION AND SINCE LAST
YEAR IT SEEMED TO ME THAT IT
WAS AN EMERGENCY BECAUSE WE'RE
UNDER CONTRACT WE'VE LET THOSE
PEOPLE GO FOR BETTER FOR WORSE
I'M NOT I'M NOT FORGET IT GET
INTO THAT RIGHT NOW YOU HAVE.
AN OPPORTUNITY WORK NOBODY
KNOWS IF THIS IS A COUNTY
AFFILIATE A FAIR OR STATE
PHILLY AFFAIR WHEN THEY GO IN
TO GET THEIR COVERT TESTS AND
YES THEY ALL NEED THE
ASSISTANCE TO DO THAT TYPE OF
WORK SO I KNOW WE HAVE ELIO HAD
SOME COMMENTS. AT THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE-
WE RECOMMEND THAT THE
LEGISLATURE WITHHOLD ACTION ON
OPERATIONAL SUPPORT FOR STATE
AFFILIATE AFFAIRS UNTIL THE MAY
REVISION- WE FIND THAT
PROVIDING OPERATIONAL SUPPORT
IS REASONABLE SINCE FARES HAVE
BEEN UNABLE TO CONDUCT FORMAL
REVENUE GENERATING ACTIVITIES
TO THE PANDEMIC. HOWEVER THE
ADMINISTRATION ESTIMATES ASSUME
THAT THERE'S WILL BE UNABLE TO
CONDUCT NORMAL OPERATIONS IN
THE BUDGET YEAR- WE FIND THAT
THERE'S STILL UNCERTAINTY
REGARDING THIS GIVEN THAT
SOCIAL DISTANCING GUIDELINES
MIGHT BE UPDATED AS MORE PEOPLE
ARE VACCINATED ACROSS THE
STATE. WE BELIEVE THAT DELAYING
ACTION ON THIS ITEM BUT A LOT
OF THE LEGISLATURE TO USE THE
ADDITIONAL TIME TO IMPLEMENT
THE DECISION. ON THE
APPROPRIATE AMOUNT TO PROVIDE-
IMAGE IS ALSO IN. THAT HALF OF
OPERATOR. SUPPORT FUNDING- WILL
BE TARGETED BASED ON FINANCIAL
MEANS OF THE STATE AFFILIATED
FAIRS. THE FOR THIS PORTION OF
THE FUNDING WE ARE RECOMMENDING
THAT THE LEGISLATURE REQUIRE A
THIRTY DAY NOTIFICATION TO THE-
JAIL B. C. PRIOR TO RELEASE OF
THESE BONDS- THAT'S BECAUSE-
THE FARES OUR- DEPARTMENT WILL
LIKELY UPDATE- HOW THIS. MONEY
WILL BE DISTRIBUTED AS MORE
INFORMATION ON THE FINANCIAL
NEEDS OF THE FAIR'S BECOMES
AVAILABLE- THIS NOTIFICATION
SHOULD INCLUDE DETAILS ON THE
AMOUNT PROVIDED TO EACH DATA
DELAYED THERE- THE METHOD USED
BY THE ADMINISTRATION TO
ALLOCATE FUNDING AND ANY
REMAINING BALANCE AND THE
DEPARTMENTS EXPECTED USE OF
THAT BALANCE. AND THEN IN
REGARDS TO THE- DEFERRED
MAINTENANCE WE RECOMMEND THAT
THE LEGISLATURE APPROVED
FUNDING FOR DEFERRED
MAINTENANCE GIVEN THE- NEEDS
ACROSS THE- AFFAIRS ACROSS THE
STATE. AND THE ROLE THAT THE
BEARS PLAYED AND THE. STATE'S
EMERGENCY RESPONSE NETWORK.
HELLO I'M DO YOU THE AND NOW
FOR THE DEFERRED MAY WAS ALL
NINE FARES SO IT'S CONCEIVED
THAT SOME OF THE CITRUS FARES
AT THE COUNTY FAIRS WOULD BE
HIGH. ON THE ON THE NEED FOR
DEFERRED MAINTENANCE VERSUS THE
DEA'S THAT ARE AFRAID EXACTLY
STATE AFFILIATED. DO YOU HAVE A
SENSE OF WITH THIS NEED FOR.
YOU KNOW USING AS A FIX. OF
STAGING AREA FOR FIRE OR USING
FOR COVER RELIEF YOU HAVE SOME
IDEA OF HOW THOSE- COUNTY FAIRS
WE AND THIS. THE WORLD OF FAIR.
I'M WE DON'T CURRENTLY HAVE
THAT INFORMATION BUT MORE THAN
HAPPY TO THE CIRCLE WITH THE
DEPARTMENT AND CIRCLE BACK WITH
THE COMMITTEE ON THE NEEDS OF
COUNTY FAIRS AND CITRUS
AFFAIRS- BUT I BELIEVE THAT
QUESTION THEY MINISTRATION
SHOULD BE ABLE TO ANSWER AS
WELL WE'LL GET TO THAT AFTER
SENATE MCGUIRE IF YOU HAVE
QUESTIONS. THANK YOU SO MUCH OF
A SECURE QUESTIONING COMMENT
AND I KNOW THAT WE ARE UNDER
TIME LIMITS ALL BE QUICK- AND I-ALSO KNOW THAT- THE
RECOMMENDATION FROM THE CHAIRS
TO BE ON HOLD OPEN AND I AGREE
WITH THAT RECOMMENDATION
APPRECIATE THAT. MISTER OR
CASKEY IS WELL. FIRST AND
FOREMOST JUST WANT TO SAY THANK
YOU TO THE SECRETARY SECTOR
ROSTER ALL OVER WORK AND WE
GREATLY APPRECIATE WORKING WITH
YOU. I THINK THAT AT THE BOTTOM
LINE IS THAT WE TAKE A LOOK AT
FAIRS WHETHER IT'S AND I GUESS
SO SHE XIN. A STATE SPONSORED
FAIR. INDOOR COUNTY FAIR
THEY'VE ALL CRATERED IT
CRATERED. FIVE OF THIS CODE-
INDUCED RECESSION IN OBVIOUSLY
BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC OF
EFFECTIVE CARE TO CLOSE THEIR
DOORS. IN WHAT WE ALSO KNOWN
ESPECIALLY IN RURAL PARTS OF
CALIFORNIA. AT COUNTY FAIRS
STATE FAIRS. THEY ARE MAIN
DRIVERS FOR OUR AGRICULTURAL
ECONOMIES. IN MORE AND MORE IF
WE ARE RELYING ON STATE FAIRS.
COUNTY FAIRS AG ASSOCIATIONS TO
BE ABLE TO HOUSE AT CRITICAL
NEEDS WHEN IT COMES TO CRISIS
IS ACROSS THE STATE. NGUYEN YES
SETS UP- AN EVACUATION SHELTER.
OR WIN A LOCAL COMMUNTY SET UP
A BASE CAMP WITH CAL FIRE- IT'S
NOT **** IS A STATE OWNED
FACILITY- COUNTY ON DISABILITY.
ALL FACILITIES ARE EXPECTED TO
RIGHTFULLY SO TO BE ABLE TO
OPEN UP THEIR DOORS. IN WHAT WE
NOW IS THAT WE NEED FAIR'S FAIR
GROUNDS MORE THAN EVER. AND
WHAT I'M REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT
IS- THROUGH THE WESTERN FAIRS
ASSOCIATION THERE'S ALWAYS IN
COLLABORATION WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION AND THE
LEGISLATURE. THAT WHAT WORKS
FOR ONE WORKS FOR ALL. IN NOW
WHAT THIS PROPOSALS FOCUSING ON
ARE JUST STATE FAIRS IN AGRA
SUFFICIENT. WE'RE LEAVING THE
APPROXIMATELY TWENTY THREE
COUNTY FAIRS OUT OF IT. AND
WE'RE GOING AWAY FROM THE
FORMULA THAT IS ALWAYS WORKED
IN AS BEEN TRIED AND TRUE.
FINALLY ON THE ISSUE OF AB
FOURTEEN NINETY NINE AND THAT
IS THE GREAT BILL. THAT TAKES A
PERCENTAGE OF WHAT IS SOLD. SO
WE'RE LOOKING AT BECAUSE WERE
YEAR AND ARREARS ABOUT SEVEN
MILLION COMING INTO THAT.
UNDERSTANDING THAT THAT'S GOING
TO BE OPEN FOR ALL FEARS IT'S A
DROP IN THE BUCKET ABOUT. WHAT
FIGURES NEED. AND THERE'S A AT
AUTOMATIC TO SIX SO IT'S JUST
SAY WE'RE GOING CLOSE TO. IT'S
JUST NOT. SO WHAT I WOULD HOPE-
MY CASKET THIS COMES TO US-
THAT THIS IS GOING BE OPEN UP
TO ALL FARES. IN ONE MORE SPIN.
RISK NINETY SIX BILLION
RIGHTFULLY SO TO BE A HELP
SMALL BUSINESSES AND MOST OF.
FOR ARGUING OVER FOR. MILLION
ENSURING IT'S GONNA BE OPEN UP
THE COUNTY FAIRS I THINK THAT
WE CAN DO BETTER WITH HOPE THAT
WE'RE GONNA BE A TO SEE AN
EXPANDED PACKAGE COMING BACK.
WELL IT LOOKS IF THE MATHIS
RIGHT WE HAVE TWENTY MILLION
LEFT OVER FROM LAST YEAR
CORRECT EMERGENCY OPERATION FOR
CONTRACT OBLIGATIONS THEN WE
HAVE TO FIFTY MILLION. THAT WE
GET THIS TEN MILLION SORTS OF.
THE WORKING NUMBER IS EIGHTY
MILLION SECURE SPOT. VICE CHAIR
DOLLARS. WHAT THE METHODOLOGY
AND- THE- WHICH- SHARES ARE
DISTRICT FAIR ARE THIRD OR. THE
SENATE IT'S BASED ON THE
GOVERNOR STRUCTURE. I SO IF
IT'S A EIGHT EIGHT IT'S A STATE
AND TO AND A POP AS A STATE
AGENCY AND SO IT WAS ON THAT-
AND THIS IS NOT IMPRESSED- AND
PREVIOUS ALLOCATIONS LARGE
BEARS- DID NOT RECEIVE THOSE
ALLOCATIONS IT WAS BASED ON
FINANCIAL NEED- AND SO THIS IS
THIS IS BASED ON THE GOVERNMENT
STRUCTURE AS A WAY TO
PRIORITIZE. A SPENDING. AND
ULTIMATELY BECAUSE THE STATE
ITSELF IS OBLIGATED AT THE
BEARS CANNOT MEET THEIR
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS WE HAVE A
LIABILITY THERE IS THE STATE.
SO ALL LISTED I WANT TO TACK ON
THE CENTER REQUIRES COMMENTS
THEY WHEN YOU SHOW UP TO THE
WHEN THAT WHEN THERE'S A FIRE
WHEN THERE'S A PANDEMIC WHEN
YOU SHOW UP YOU DON'T THE KICK
OUR CONSTITUENTS DON'T KNOW
WHICH ONES WHICH IN THE FUNDING
SHOULD BE. MORE DISTRIBUTED
EQUALLY TO ALL THOSE. OKAY
FINANCE HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD.
I'VE EVER DEPARTED FINANCE I
JUST- JUST MAKE A COUPLE POINTS
TWO HUNDRED POINTS ALLIE-
PROVIDED- YOU KNOW
ACKNOWLEDGING THERE ARE STILL
UNCERTAINTIES ON OF WHAT WILL
HAPPEN WITH WITH SPARES IN IN
THE BUDGET YEAR I THINK OUR-
THE FIFTY MILLION PROPOSED IS
BASED OFF OF THE OF THE BEST
ESTIMATE OF AVAILABLE DATA THAT
WE DO HAVE- AND- COMMENT ON ON
THE- THIRTY. DAY CAN.
REQUIREMENT I THINK WE'LL JUST
KNOW THAT THAT DOESN'T REDUCE
SOME OF THE STATE FLEXIBILITY
TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE MEDIA
FAIR NEED I THINK ONE THING
THAT WE EXPERIENCE THIS YEAR-
WITH PROVIDING- FUNDING TO
AFFAIRS IS. YOU KNOW THERE'S
JUST A LOT OF. YOU KNOW
UNEXPECTED THING TO HAPPEN TO
WHERE WE NEED TO BE NIMBLE AND
BE ABLE TO PROVIDE AFFAIRS OF
FUNDING IN A QUICK MANNER GIVEN
THAT THEY ARE. WORKING ON TIGHT
BUDGETS AND SO- YOU KNOW
NOTIFICATION BEFORE. IT OF
FUNDING TO OTHER AFFAIRS I
THINK PROVIDES- KIND OF IT
LIMITS TO THE STATE WHERE WE'RE
NOT ABLE TO ACT AS QUICKLY AS
NEEDED TO SUPPORT THE FARES.
OKAY THANK WE ARE GOING TO HOLD
THIS YOU KNOW IT'S I MEAN
THERE'S ALL A LOT OF CLEVER
THINGS THAT CAN HAPPEN IF
THERE'S- MILLION IN THE BANK.
IF YOU HAD A FIVE MILLION YOU
COULD PROBABLY GIVE A MILLION
DOLLARS. EVERY COUNTY FAIR AND
SEARCHES FOR AND JUST SAY
THAT'S IT THAT'S WHAT YOU GET
THIS YEAR BUT- WILL COME UP
WITH SOMETHING CLEVER THANK
YOU. THE CHAIR NOTICES THAT
WE'RE ALL HERE SO MISS ROY
LET'S ESTABLISH A QUORUM WE
PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. WHY
CASKEY HERE MY CASKEY HERE.
CALLING YOUR CALLING HERE.
REQUIRE YOUR REQUIRED. STERN
YOUR- STERN HERE. EXCELLENT
QUORUM MOVE ON THE ISSUE TWO IN
THESE REGULAR. REPORTING FOR
AGRICULTURE. SECRETARY RON GO
AHEAD. THANK YOU CHAIR- BEFORE
CALVET NINETEEN FARMERS AND
RANCHERS ARE FACING INCREASING
NEW CHALLENGES INCLUDING THE
IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE WATER
UNCERTAINTY- AND A NUMBER OF
NEW REGULATIONS THAT PASSED IN
THE LAST DECADE THAT ARE BEING
IMPLEMENTED. IN THE LAST COUPLE
OF YEARS AND ALL OF THOSE COME
WITH SEPARATE REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS- TWO YEARS AGO- WE
HAD A SUMMER INTERN FROM THE
HOSPITAL OF BUSINESS WHO MAPPED
OUT- THE NUMBER OF REGULATIONS
THAT FARMERS OF ALL SIZES MUST
COMPLY WITH AND MAPPED OUT AT
LEAST A HUNDRED AND FIFTY
DIFFERENT REGULATIONS. ACROSS
MULTIPLE STATE AGENCIES I KNOW
THAT WHEN I GO OUT WITH THE
GOVERNOR GOES OUT WHEN
SECRETARY BLUMENTHAL GOES OUT
WE ALWAYS HEAR ABOUT THE
REGULATORY BURDEN AND IT'S
REALLY ABOUT THE COMPLIANCE AND
COMPLEXITY ALL OF THE REPORTS
THAT HAVE TO BE DONE AT
DIFFERENT TIMES. MANY OF THEM
HAVE SOME OF THE SAME
REQUIREMENTS FOR REPORTING. AND
AS WE LOOK AT RECOVERING FROM
THE HUGE DISRUPTION TO MARKETS
FOR FARMERS WE KNOW THAT THE
LOSS OF FOOD SERVICE WHICH IS
ABOUT 50% OF THE FOOD DOLLARS
THAT ARE SPENT OUTSIDE OF THE
HOME IN RESTAURANTS CAFETERIAS-
SPORTING EVENTS WHATEVER IT IS.
DISPROPORTIONATE AMOUNT OF OUR
SMALL FARMERS WERE IMPACTED BY
THAT THOSE PART OF ECONOMIC
RECOVERY WE WOULD LIKE TO DO
THIS PROJECT WITH OUR
COLLEAGUES AT EPA THE JOINTLY
MANAGE BY PROCESS IMPROVEMENT
TO MAP OUT AND DOCUMENT THE
REGULATIONS THE REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS AND ALIGN WHERE
THOSE ARE BUT THERE MAY BE SOME
DUPLICATIONS WERE WE COULD
STREAMLINE OUR OPERATIONS. AND
IN DOING THAT STREAMLINE THE
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS TO
FARMERS AND RANCHERS ESPECIALLY
OUR SMALL SIZE FARMERS AND
RANCHERS- AND IMPROVE OUR
CUSTOMER SERVICE AND MAKE LIFE
A LITTLE BIT EASIER FOR THE
AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITIES OF THE
STATE- I THINK THAT FIGHT
DOCUMENTING AND MAPPING. OUR
SHARED REGULAR CHOI PATHWAY.
AND I. THE ROOT BACKING- OF
THAT SHRIMP THE ALLOW. WHEN
THAT HAVE IS PROVIDE. AND WHERE
THERE ARE TWO- WEEK COME WITH A
GOOD PACKAGE EVERY FOR OUR FROM
AND IN THE STATE OF. OPEN TO.
ON THAT AND THEY'RE GONNA
NUMBER OF CAMANCHE GROUP THAT.
I'M DONE EVAN AND ASSESSED ON
THAT'S THE STATE. SECTOR WAS
THE MOST RECENT ONE THE
ESTIMATED AT LEAST 7% OF THEIR
OPERATING COSTS WERE JUST
AROUND THE COMPLIANCE RECORDING
COSTA STRAWBERRY PRODUCERS. AS
ONE EXAMPLE OF WHAT A
SIGNIFICANT COST OF OPERATION-
THESE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
ARE. THANK YOU SECRETARY ROSS I
KNOW THAT THE ALEJO- THIS IS
GOOD INFORMATION ABOUT THE
COMPLIANCE WITH THE WITH THE
STRAWBERRY FOLKS- YOU KNOW THEY
WERE CONCERNED ABOUT. THE BIG
PICTURE IF YOU COULD GIVE US A
FLAVOR BECAUSE I'VE MISTER
JIMENEZ TO MISTER BROWN ARE
WAITING FOR THE END IN THIS
DUPLICATIVE. ASSESSMENT WHERE
YOU THINK YOU GO TO TARGET
WHERE YOU THINK IT'S MOST WILL
AGREE JUST. YET SO- IN OUR
PRELIMINARY DISCUSSIONS WERE
JUST STARTING TO US AND WE KNOW
THAT WE NEED SOME OUTSIDE
EXPERTISE AND PROCESS
IMPROVEMENTS ASSIST BOTH OF OUR
AGENCIES- WE'VE HAD- VERY
POSITIVE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE
CHAIR OF THE STATE WATER
RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD- WITH
THEIR IRRIGATED ADVANCED
PROGRAM AND NOW THE CD SALTS.
AND OTHERS TAKE A LOOK AT THAT
WE'RE GOING TO NEED TO
PRIORITIZE AND THAT IS ONE
AGENCIES VERY EAGER TO SIT DOWN
WITH US AND DO THIS MAP APPS-
TO SEE IF. A WAY TO TAKE A MORE
IN. REPORTING APPROACH TO
MULTIPLE PRO THAT ARE IMPACTING
THE SAME ACRES OF LAND AND
THAT'S JUST ONE EXAMPLE THAT I
CAN PROVIDE TODAY. OKAY ALEJO.
ARM YOU HAVE AN OPINION ON THIS.
MISTER YES. THAT THEIR
COMMENDED WHAT THE BUDGET
ANALYST'S OFFICE SORRY FOR- THE
FOR THE RED. WERE A- AT WE DID.
THE LEGISLATURE REJECT THIS
PROPOSED- TO. AN SS OF THE-
PARKWAY. THAT ARE PLACE ON AG
INDUSTRY. FOLLOWING FOUND THAT
AN SS. OF THAT NATURE DOES HAVE
MERIT ADMINISTRATION DID NOT
PROVIDE US WITH A COMPELLING
LIST OF DUPLICATIVE REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS THAT INTENDS TO
ASSESS. I'M HAVING THIS
INFORMATION PROVIDES CONFIDENCE
TO THE LEGISLATURE THAT PROBLEM
DOES EXIST AND THAT. FUNDING
WILL BE- WELL TARGETED. THE
MORE HAN HAPPY TO CIRCLE BACK
WHICH DEPARTMENT SEE WHAT
INFORMATION THEY CAN PROVIDE US
AND REPORT BACK TO THEM. YOU
MAY AS WELL- ALSO PART OF THIS
PROPOSAL THERE'S AN ASSESSMENT
OF. ONLINE OF THEIR ONLINE
PORTAL- WE DID RECOMMEND THAT
THE LEGISLATURE REQUIRED
APARTMENTS REPORT AT THAT
BUDGET HEARING ON. WHAT OTHER
FUND SOURCES COULD BE USE
BESIDES GENERAL FUND. AND WE
FIND THAT- CONDUCTING AN
ASSESSMENT OF THEIR ONLINE
PORTAL. DOES HAVE MERIT GIVEN
THAT- THE DEPARTMENT IS-
INDICATED THAT IS. BURDEN SOME
TECHNICAL INDUSTRY AND- A
PORTAL SUCH AS THIS WOULD- THE
DEPARTMENT ITS NEXT STEPS. WHAT
IT CAN DO TO CORRECT ISSUE AND
PROVIDE A MORE CONVENIENT
SERVICE AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY.
HOWEVER WE FOUND THAT THE- I'M
ASSESSMENT LARGELY. AGRICULTURE
SECTOR AND DOESN'T- HAVE A
BROAD ENOUGH A BENEFIT- WARRANT
OFFICER THE GENERAL FUND ON.
MISTER CHAIR I HOPE. THAT I NOT-
PROVIDING. ON THAT- JUST IN
YEARS AND DOING OUR EIGHTY- IS
EIGHTY THIRTY COME. YOU TO THE
STATURE DEADLINE UNDER WHICH WE
TO MEET WE WERE A- TO DO IT
INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE
ASSESSMENT- AND SINCE THAT TIME
WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT
INFORMATION ABOUT JUST
LICENSING IS SPREAD THROUGHOUT
TWO THOUSAND DIFFERENT WEB
PAGES. AT CDFA- FEW OF THEM IN
PROVIDING THAT INFORMATION
PROVIDE A WAY TO APPLY ONLINE.
AND SO WE FEEL THAT DURING THIS.
US HE PULLED ISN'T. TOGETHER IS
THE FIRST STEP THAT WE COULD DO
THAT WOULD IMPROVE OUR SERVICE
HAS GOVERNMENT. TO OUR OUR
CONSTITUENTS- AND THEN MAKE AN
ASSESSMENT OF HOW THAT SHOULD
BE FUNDED BUT CHEWING THIS
PERSON'S BASELINE- ASSESSMENT
ARCHITECTURE UP FOR THAT ALL IS
HOW WE PULL THAT THE ENGINE
CRUISER. THE FARMERS RANCHERS I
CAN'T THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF FOR
SMALL FARMERS IN PARTICULAR
THEY DO NOT HAVE. YOU KNOW A
SPECIALIST ON STAFF AND MORE
AND MORE OF EVEN THAT SIZE
FARMERS ARE HAVING TO HIRE A
FULL TIME PERSON IF YOU
COMPLIANCE REPORTING AND KEEP
UP. WITH REQUIREMENTS ACROSS
MULTIPLE STATE AGENCIES THAT
THEY INTERFACE WITH. SO THIS IS
THE FIRST STEP THAT FOR US TO
DO THAT ARCHITECTURAL LANDSCAPE
ASSESSMENT. AND THEN MAKE
PROPOSALS AND HOW THE FUND THE
NEXT ACCESS BACK THANK YOU FOR
THE CLERK. LET'S HEAR FROM ONE
OF THOSE SPOTS SMALL FARMERS
VICE CHAIR DOLLARS. OF MY GOSH
DO I START- YOUR PERSONAL I'M I.
AS A FORMER. WHO DEALS WITH
GROUNDWATER REGULATION. SERVICE
WATER REGULATIONS. TOXICS
COUNTY AG DEPARTMENT IN WE ARE
WE ARE TRUE FARM I'M THIS
ANYWAY DOLLY IN THE OTHER HOUSE
DOES ALL THAT STUFF I RUN THE
TRACTOR. AND I WILL TELL YOU.
THAT WE ARE. CONSTANTLY IN FEAR
FIRST OF ALL OF TIME TO GET IT
RIGHT NUMBER ONE AND I ALL ALL
FOR STREAM THE PROCESS. BUT I
WILL TELL YOU. THE DOUBLES AND
DETAILS. WE DO ISSUE NUMBER ONE
THAT WE- UP TODAY IS ASKING FOR
MORE MONEY TO STREAM TO TRY TO
FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO PESTICIDES.
AND YOU KNOW WE STARTED OUT AT%
SEVEN MILLION AND NOW IT'S
TWENTY TWO POINT SEVEN MILLION.
AND WE'RE NOT THERE- THERE ARE
SO MANY IT PROBLEMS IN
CALIFORNIA'S GOVERNMENT THAT I
CAN DO IN ORDER START SO I'M A
LITTLE SKEPTICAL OF HOW IT
HAPPENS BECAUSE- I'M ALL FOR
IT. I WANT I WANT TO GO ONLINE
TO BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF ALL
THE ROUTE I MEAN WE HAVE.
DIVERGENT WATER DIVERSIONS OF
REALLY SMALL AMOUNTS THAT IN
SOME AREAS OF THE STATE. DON'T
EVEN HAVE CELL SERVICE TO BE
ABLE TO DO REAL TIME SO YOU GOT
TO SEND SOMEBODY OUT THERE TO
ACTUALLY FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH
WATER IS GOING THROUGH A PIPE.
SO I AGREE WITH THE- THE TOO
MUCH. GOVERNMENT INTEREST
INTRUSION INTO INTO FAMILY
FARMS AND SMALL FARMS. BUT I
WANNA KNOW HOW IT'S GOING TO
BE. IMPLEMENTED BECAUSE AT THE
END OF THE DAY IF WE'RE GONNA
PUT. YOU KNOW A COUPLE MILLION
NOW TO GET STARTED AND THEN.
TENS OF MILLIONS AND WE STILL
DON'T GET THERE I MEAN THESE
DEPARTMENTS DON'T TALK TO EACH
OTHER THERE'S- RATED.
REGULATIONS ON TOP REGULATIONS
ON TOP REGULATION SO- I NEED
MORE DETAIL ON HOW YOU'RE GOING
TO. MAKE IT EASIER FOR ME TO
STAY. A FAMILY FARM IN
CALIFORNIA. HEY THAT'S WILL
LEAVE THAT AT THAT AND- WE'RE
GONNA HOLD OFF ISSUE NUMBER
TWELVE AND LET'S MOVE ON TO THE
SWEET PROGRAM. YES SIGNATURE
ROSE WATER EFFICIENCY
ENHANCEMENT PROGRAMME IT'S BEEN
ONE OF OUR MOST OVERSUBSCRIBED
PROGRAMS- FOR THE PAST- SEVEN
YEARS WE'VE FUNDED EIGHT
HUNDRED TWENTY EIGHT PROJECTS
COVERING A HUNDRED AND THIRTY
FOUR THOUSAND ACRES- WITH AN
INVESTMENT OF EIGHTY. POINT
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS THAT HAVE
BEEN REPORTED TO DATE THAT'S
ALSO BEEN MATCHED BY THE
FARMERS AND RANCHERS QUALIFY
FOR THIS PROGRAM WITH FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS OF THEIR OWN
INVESTMENT. AND WE ESTIMATE
THAT THIS WEEK PROGRAMS
RESULTED IN EIGHTY THOUSAND
METRIC TONS OF CO TWO
REDUCTIONS IN ADDITION TO
THIRTY SEVEN AND A HALF BILLION
GALLONS OF WATER STATE
ANNUALLY- THE BUDGET REQUEST
TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS IN
GENERAL FUND IN TWENTY TWENTY
TWENTY ONE. AND TWENTY MILLION
DOLLARS AND TWENTY ONE TWENTY%
TWO THE FUNDS ADDITIONAL
PROJECTS UNDER THIS VERY
SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM ESPECIALLY
BURKE AND THE OTHER EXTREMELY
TRIED HERE- THE QUESTION WAS
RAISED BY ALEJO ABOUT. THE NEED
FOR EARLY ACTION ON THIS OF
THIS JUST ALLOWS US TO CAT BIG
CONTRACTS AWARDED EARLIER TO
START THIS WATER SAVINGS
EARLIER IF WE WERE TO GET THE
FUNDING AS SOON AS IT'S
AVAILABLE WE WOULD BE ABLE TO
PUT OUT THE REQUEST FOR GRANT
PROPOSALS. AND AWARD THOSE
CONTRACTS SO THAT THE WORK
COULD BE DONE YET IN CALENDAR
YEAR TWENTY TWENTY ONE AS
OPPOSED TO WAITING FOR THE NEXT
YEAR BUT SOME OF THESE
PROJECTS. ON THE GROUND AND
IMPLEMENTING. THE WATER AND
ENERGY SAVINGS. THANK YOU A. O.
WHAT IT WHAT DO THINK THINK
ABOUT THAT EXTRA OF WHY WE
SHOULD LET HALF THE MONEY OUT
EARLY. I'M YEAH WE- AGREE THAT
THIS PURPOSE ALIGNS WITH PAST
LET. PRIORITIES AND REDUCING
GHG EMISSIONS AND
SUSTAINABILITY MANAGING WATER
RESOURCES. ARE WE STILL
RECOMMEND THAT THE LEGISLATURE
APPROVED- THE PROPOSAL TO BE
FOUND IN THE BUDGET YEAR- JUST
TO REDUCE- INITIATIVE
COMPLEXITY IN AWARDING TWO
GRANTS AND TWO CYCLES. AND
BASED ON THE DEPARTMENT'S
TIMELINE- I BELIEVE GRANTS
WITH. BUT WOULD BE AWARDED AND
COVER IT TWENTY TWENTY TWO SO-
THERE WOULDN'T BE ANY IMMEDIATE
FUNDING BEING PROVIDED WITHIN
THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS. THREE
I'M JUST WONDERING WE JUST DID
VOTED ON A NINE POINT SIX
BILLION DOLLAR- IMMEDIATE.
APPROPRIATION I WONDER HOW
COMPLEX IT HAS IT'S GOING TO BE
WITH DOING THESE- OTHER ONES
CENTER STERN YOU HAVE A
COMMENT. IT USED TO THE WORDS
OF MY MOUTH IS I MEAN. I
APPRECIATE THE COMMENT AND-
ANTICIPATED COMPLEX BUT- WE'RE
BROKEN RIGHT NOW IS IN A CON.
THAT SPEED IS GOING TO BE OUR
FRIEND SO I I'D LOVE TO HEAR
FROM. CDFA I MEAN I FEEL IT'S A
TREMENDOUS SENSE OF URGENCY
AROUND EARLY ACTION THAT I
APPRECIATE. WE IS THE
LEGISLATURE TO WANT TO HAVE.
FOR SIDE IN TIME AND DRIVEN
MINISTRY TO PROCESS BUT IF. YOU
KNOW IF WE NEED TO GET. FARMERS
BACK ON THEIR FEET OR PREPARE
FOR THIS DROUGHT SEASON RIGHT
NOW I MEAN THAT'S WHAT I'M MOST
WORRIED ABOUT THAT CLOCK IS
TICKING. AND SIGMA'S HITTING.
N. THE GREAT THE GROUNDWATER
YOU KNOW ASSESSMENT PLANS THE
GSA'S ARE COMING IN AND THERE'S
GOING TO BE LOT OF TENSION IN
THE LAWSUITS HAVE ALREADY
STARTED. AND IF THERE'S SOME
WAY. TO MITIGATE THAT TENSION
RIGHT NOW SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE
A TRAIN WRECK. AT THE END OF
THIS SUMMER ACT I SAY GO SO I
JUST I WANT TO HEAR THAT. I
MEAN CAN YOU SOLVE THAT IT
MINISTRY TO COMPLEXITY ISSUE
SECRETARY ROSS- I MEAN LIKE HOW
I'D LOVE TO HEAR. A RESPONSE ON
THAT JUST BECAUSE- WE HAVE
DEBATED THIS THOROUGHLY BECAUSE
THIS INVOLVES NOT ONLY OUR
OFFICE OF ENVIRONMENTAL.
FARMING AND INFORMATION IT ALSO
INVOLVES OUR GRANTS OFFICE. AS
WELL AS OUR FINANCIAL SERVICES
BECAUSE OF THAT THE SCOUT
APPLICATION SO BASS BOTH ALL
TAKE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME.
TO ENTER INTO THE SYSTEM AND
WHILE IT DOESN'T IMPROVE. WHO'S
THE COMPLEXITY. WE ARE PREPARED%
TO MAKE THIS WORK BECAUSE WE
THINK IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO
DO FOR FARMERS AND RANCHERS. WE
HAVE A HIGH DEGREE OF
CONFIDENCE THAT WE COULD HAVE
CONTRACTS- IN PLACE- SO THAT
THE WORK IT ACTUALLY BEGAN. ON
LATE OCTOBER EARLY NOVEMBER I
DON'T THINK THAT'S OVERLY
OPTIMISTIC. THAT'S IMPORTANT
BECAUSE WE WANT TO GET IT DONE
BEFORE WE HOPE THE RAINS COME
LATER IN THE WINTER TIME. AND
THAT PUTS PROJECTS ON THE
GROUND. JUST START SOME OF
THESE WILL BENEFIT FROM YOU
KNOW IF WE HAD A WET WINTER
FROM RECHARGE AND BEING ABLE
TO. START THAT WORK SO. OUR
STAFF IS VERY DEDICATED WE WORK
WELL ACROSS OUR VARIOUS
DIVISIONS TO MAKE THESE
PROJECTS WORK IN AN INTEGRATED
KIND OF WAY AND I'M CONFIDENT
THAT WE GET THE WORK. IN THE
GROUND BEFORE. THE END OF
TWENTY TWENTY ONE. THANK YOU
GUYS PRESSURE DAHLE. I JUST
COMMENT LET THE BETTER END OF
THE DAY THERE'S APPLICANTS OUT
THERE FOR THE THERE ARE YOU
READY GO THEY JUST NEED
RESOURCES TO GO. OKAY THANK YOU
WE'RE GOOD TO HOLD THAT. AND
YOU BOTH FOR BACK TO STAFF ON-
THE FOLLOW UPS NOW LET'S. TALK
ABOUT MICROGRAMS FOR
UNDERSERVED. POPULATIONS AND OF
ON THE FARM PLUS ALSO SMALL AND
EVEN HI EVEN MEDIUM SIZE FARMS.
SECRETARY ROSS YES THIS IS A
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
FOR UNDERSERVED FARMS WERE
VERY. EXCITED AND GRATEFUL THAT
THE GOVERNOR HAS PROPOSED IN
HIS BUDGET THIS SPECIFIC
ASSISTANCE- FOR SMALL AND
UNDERSERVED FARMS IT'S A TOTAL
OF SIX POINT SEVEN MILLION
DOLLARS IN GENERAL FUND ONE
TIME. A THREE POINT THREE FIVE
AND IN EARLY ACTION AND- AT THE
NATIONAL POINT THREE FIVE FOR
THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. 20% OF
CALIFORNIA'S FARMERS ARE IN THE
CATEGORY OF SOCIALLY
DISADVANTAGE WHICH IS THAT AT A
DESIGNATION UNDER THE FARM BILL
AND- THE USDA CENSUS OF
AGRICULTURE. IT'S A GROWING
NUMBER OF SMALL FARM BUSINESS
OWNERS THAT HAVE UNIQUE
CHALLENGES. THAT ARE LIKELY TO
BE UNDER RESOURCE THEY HAVE
LIMITED ACCESS TO CAPITAL THEY
FACE LANGUAGE OF EDUCATIONAL
BARRIERS. MARKETING THEIR
CROPS- AND THEY DON'T HAVE LONG
TERM ACCESS TO LAND. ON MANY OF
THESE CHALLENGES WERE
IDENTIFIED IN THE FORMER EQUITY
ACT THAT WAS DISTRIBUTED TO THE
LEGISLATURE EARLY IN TWENTY
TWENTY AS A RESULT OF THE
TWENTY SEVENTEEN FORMER EQUITY
ACT- THAT WAS PASSED- SO. WE
KNOW THAT THIS IS SHARED BY ALL
FROM FARM AND BECOME HAS. AS OF
ECONOMIC WEEK. NINE OF THE JUST.
HEAD THE PAYCHECK BY LOSS OF
RESTAURANTS. I'M SOMEWHERE
IMPACT BY FAR MARKET. MANY WERE
NOT ABLE TO HAVE IT TOO ONLINE
SALE DIRECTLY TO COST- THAT
THEY NEED THE TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE TO GO THROUGH THE
MAZE OF THAT. WE ALSO KNOW FROM
THE FEEDBACK WE'VE GOTTEN FROM
OUR LISTENING SESSIONS WITH
SMALL FARMERS IN THE CBO'S THAT
SERVE UNDER RESOURCE FARMERS.
BUT MANY OF THEM WERE NOT ABLE
TO ACCESS USDA ASSISTANCE
PROGRAMS THAT WERE ESTABLISHED.
I'M THOSE ARE VERY COMPLEX.
PROCESSES AND YOU ARE VERY VERY
SMALL FARMERS AND UNDER
RESOURCE FARMERS WERE ABLE TO
TAP INTO THAT. SO A BIG
EMPHASIS ON THIS IS EQUIPPING
THE CBO COMMUNITY AND YOU SEE
ACTING NATIONAL RESOURCES
COOPERATIVE EXTENSION. SMALL
FARM ADVISORS SO THAT THEY CAN
OFFER THAT HANDS ON TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE. TO HELP THE SMALL
DISADVANTAGED FARMERS TAP INTO
ANY RELIEF PROGRAMS THAT ARE
AVAILABLE AT USDA THE PACKAGE
THAT PASSED AT THE END OF
TWENTY TWENTY. HAS CONSIDERABLE
DOLLARS THAT ARE IN THE PROCESS
OF BEING DEVELOPER GRANT
PROGRAMS. BUT WE'RE VERY
ANXIOUS TO GET EARLY ACTION ON
THE US TO SUPPORT THE SMALL
FARMERS AND BEING ABLE TO.
ACCESS THOSE FUNDS INTO IN
ADDITION TO ANY RELIEF DOLLARS
THAT ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE
FOCUS OFFICE- WHAT WE
SPECIFICALLY PROPOSED ON
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT WAS A
QUESTION FROM THE L. A. O. YES
MORE SPECIFICS WE HAVE BEEN
ABLE TO DO A NUMBER OF
LISTENING SESSION SINCE THIS
PROPOSAL WAS MADE IN JANUARY.
SO FOR THE EARLY ACTION WE'RE
PROPOSING ONE POINT THREE FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS FOR TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE. THE UC COOPERATIVE
EXTENSION IN ADDITION TO OUR
STAFF ASSISTANT. JUNIOR DOLLARS
FOR GRANT PROGRAM TO HELP AS
MANY CBO THAT. SOME ARE NEW IN
THE LAST DECADE THEY'RE
OFFERING LOW THE- AND CULTURE
APPROPRIATE ASSIST TO THE SMALL
FOR THAT HAVE. BUT A GROUP
CALIFORNIA AND THROUGHOUT OUR
WILL. THIS WILL BE A GREAT COOK.
IF THE CLIP OVER TO YOUR
CARRIER HELP FARMERS.
SPECIFICALLY TO TAP IN THOSE BY
ALL- DOLLAR AND THEN HUNDRED
DOLLAR FOR MY GRANTS THE FARM.
AND THE NEXT YEAR IT WOULD BE
ONE POINT THREE FIVE DOLLAR.
THROUGH YOU SEE SMALL. AND BY.
AS WELL AS THAT WOULD BE FOR
TWO TWENTY AND TWENTY TWENTY
THREE AND ONE POINT THREE FIVE
NINE DOLLARS FOR SECOND IS THIS.
FOR TWENTY THREE TWENTY. AND
SIX AND FIFTY THOUSAND FOR MY-
FOR FARMERS- AND THEN AS YEAR.
AVAILABLE. FOR THANK YOU
SECRETARY ARE RIGHTS. CALIO YOU
GARGLE BREAK COUNTY. IS THAT
ANSWER THE BECAUSE ABOUT THEIR
EARLY MONEY FOR GRANT SINCE
GRANT. OF THE DEPARTMENT OF AT.
OWN SKETCH DOESN'T GO UP UNTIL
OCTOBER. TO HIM MANIS. DO I
HAVE THE RIGHT I'M SORRY MR
WASN'T WAS HAVE TROUBLE AND MY-
NO GO AHEAD. YES THE INTENT OF
THE ROLE OF THE NOT RAY ANY CAN
WITH OUR OFFICE HOWEVER DO-
THREE THAT ARE IN THE OF THAT
WE CAN WOULD PROVIDE THE LET-
BUT- HE PIECE OF INFORMATION IN
ASSESSING THE TWO GRANTS BEING
PROPOSED. ONE OF THOSE
QUESTIONS RELATES TO THEM THE
RECENT FEDERALLY FACT IT CHEN
THE GRANTS THAT ARE BEING
PROPOSED THERE MAY BE SOME
DUPLICATIVE EFFORTS THERE- HOW
THE DEPARTMENT DEFINED SMALL
MID SIZE FARMERS USING THE USDA
DEFINITION OF SMALL AND MID
SIZE THAT. COMPASSES AROUND 85%
OF THE FARMS IN CALIFORNIA SO
WE FIND THAT THAT MADE ME MAKE-
FUNDING HARD TO TARGET AND
THEN- SECTOR US- PROVIDE
INFORMATION HOUSING MONEY WILL
BE SPLIT BETWEEN THE TWO GRAND.
AND THEN WE ALSO RECOMMEND THAT
THE LEGISLATURE PROVE ANY
FUNDING IN THE BUDGET YEAR. I'M
EARLY ACTION IS LIKELY NOT
WARRANTED GIVEN THAT FUNDING
WILL BE IS WILL NOT BE USED TO
SUPPORT IMMEDIATE SERVICES IN
THE CURRENT YEAR. YOU MAKE A
DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE EARLY
ACTION TO PROVIDE THE TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE THROUGH THE OUT
REACH FOR THESE. MICRO FOLKS
VERSUS THE ACTUAL FUNDING OF
THE GRANT. IS BLACK DOES IT
SEEM CONCEIVABLE TO YOU THAT
THAT SOME OF THIS WORK COULD BE
DONE IF THEY GOT THE PCP WITH
IT THAT SOMEBODY PEOPLE COULD
ACTUALLY. GO OUT IN THE
COMMUNITY OR DO WHATEVER. ONE
DOES THE CONTACT THESE
UNDERSERVED FARMERS. I SEE THAT
IS A DIFFERENT FUNCTION THAT
ACTUALLY. YOUR PROOF FOR THE
GREAT BECAUSE THEY CAN CONSIDER
THE GRANT RIGHT THIS IS START
THE APPLICATION PROCESS. MISTER
CHAIRMAN I SPEAK TO THAT THAT
IS THAT IS THE- OF EARLY. IS TO
MAKE SURE WE HAVE GO THROUGH
YOU SEE COOPERATIVE. SMALL FARM
ADVISORS AND THE CV I WAS. AT
WORK WITH MANY OF THE SMALL SIT
DOWN FARMERS. THAT THEY ARE TO
DO THAT. ON TECH THIS
SPECIFICALLY. TO HELP THE SMALL
FARMERS TAP INTO FEDERAL
ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS FOR GRANT
PROGRAMS AS WELL AS ANY
PROGRAMS AT THE STATE HOUSE FOR
SMALL BUSINESS. I ALSO AND I
APOLOGIZE THAT I NEGLECTED. TO
ADDRESS THE QUESTION ABOUT.
DEFINITION OF SMALL FARM. HELLO
DOES HAVE SMALL FARMS THEN-
ACROSS YOU THAT STATES. BUT WE
PROPOSE. AFTER LISTENING
SESSIONS AND WE WILL DO
ADDITIONAL LISTENING SESSIONS.
TO MODIFY THE USDA DEFINITION
OF SMALL FARMS TO ONE HUNDRED
ACRES FOR THE LAST- THAT MAY BE
REFINED A BIT MORE BUT THAT IS
OUR INTENT. OR GOING OUT TO AN
ADDITIONAL AMOUNT OF LISTENING
SESSIONS BEFORE WE PUT THAT.
THE FINAL GRANT STAFF TOGETHER
FOR THE GRANT PROGRAM BUT FOR
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE. THAT'S
THE PIECE THE BEST THAT WE FEEL
IS VERY IMPORTANT TO GET FUNDED
YEAH IN THIS. CURRENT YEAR
THANK YOU THANK YOU ALRIGHT
LET'S CONTINUE TO DISCUSS
THAT'S WHAT'S WILL MOVE ON TO
OUR LAST ISSUE IN PART A- WHICH
GOT A LITTLE BIT MORE
INTERESTING WITH THE ALEJO'S.
HI ANALYSIS OF THE TWO THIRDS
VOTE IS NECESSARY FOR THE- THE
MILL IF IT WASN'T ALREADY AN
INTERESTING. TOPIC THIS IS THE
TRANSITION TO SAFER MORE
SUSTAINABLE PEST MANAGEMENT.
AND THE SECRETARY. ROSS YOUR
JOB JUST GOT TOUGH. EVERY
PLEASE GO AHEAD. THE TERM AND I
THINK I WAS GOING TO PRESENT
THIS ITEM OKAY I APOLOGIZE. AND
I AND THE JOB JUST YET OUT TOP
BUT I'M A PART WITH THAT THE
HAS REGULATION INVEST THANK YOU
MISTER. FIVE I'M SORRY I SHOULD
GOTTEN THAT GO AHEAD MISTER
GOOD MORNING CHAIRMAN HOUSE AND
OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE AND THANKS
HAVING HERE TODAY. MY NAME IS
ALL SENIOR I'M THE TO. OF THE
TO OF PASSED REGULATION AT PA.
IF I'M I'D LIKE TO START
STATION WITH JUST A STATE ON
THE DEPARTMENT'S PROPOSAL IN
FRONT OF YOU. OUR DISCUSSION
TODAY WILL FOCUS ON OUR VCP TO
REQUEST SUPPORT TOO FOR THE
STATE'S TRANSITION TO SAFER AND
MORE SUSTAINABLE PEST
MANAGEMENT. THE GUY BUDGET
PROPOSES TO REPLACE THE CURRENT
BLACK FEMALE ASSESSMENT ON
PESTICIDE SALES. WITH A RISK
BASED HERE NO ASSESSMENT. WHERE
HIGHER TOXICITY PESTICIDES ARE
ASSESSED A HIGHER FEE. AND WE
BELIEVE THE TRANSITIONING FROM
A BLACK MALE TO A TIERED MILL
WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT MARKET
SIGNAL. WHERE WE WANT TO GO AS
A STATE REGARDING PESTICIDE
USAGE. ONCE FULLY PHASED IN BY
TWO THOUSAND TWENTY FOUR TWENTY
FIVE WE WANT TO GIVE ADEQUATE
TIME FOR BILL PAYERS TO ADJUST.
TO THE NEW TIERED MAIL THIS
BOLD AND INNOVATIVE APPROACH IS
ANTICIPATED TO GENERATE
APPROXIMATELY FORTY FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS IN ANNUAL
REVENUE. TO THE DVR FRONT. THE
ADDITIONAL REVENUE WILL FUND
VARIOUS DPR AND CDFA PROGRAMS.
WILL ALSO INCREASE OUR SUPPORT
TO COUNTY AGRICULTURAL
COMMISSIONERS FOR LOCAL
PESTICIDE USE ENFORCEMENT
ACTIVITIES. AND WILL ENHANCE
OUR ABILITY TO ENGAGE WITH
PESTICIDE IMPACTED COMMUNITIES
AROUND THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
IN ORDER TO ACCELERATE THE
STATE'S TRANSITION FROM HARMFUL
PESTICIDES TO MORE SUSTAINABLE
TOOLS. WELL THE GOOD NEWS IS
THAT DPR AND OUR SISTER
AGENCIES CERTAINLY INCLUDING
CDFA. ARE DEEPLY ENGAGED A
GREAT INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES
AROUND CALIFORNIA. FROM
ASSISTANCE TO CHILDCARE CENTERS
ANDSCHOOLS TO WORK IN
COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL
GROWERS. IN ADDITION WE HAVE A
SUSTAINABLE PEST MANAGEMENT
WORK READ THAT WILL COMMENCE
ITS ACTIVITIES IN A FEW WEEKS
AND REVIEW THESE ISSUES IN MUCH
GREATER DETAIL OF. ABOUT
EIGHTEEN MONTHS. BUT THE REALLY
GOOD NEWS THE GREAT NEWS I
THINK IS THE CALIFORNIA FARMERS
AND BACKYARD GARDENERS AND OPEN
SPACE MANAGERS AND MANY OTHERS.
HAVE BEEN UTILIZING INTEGRATED
PEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES SINCE
THE NINETEEN FIFTIES AND SO I
THINK THAT WE'RE WELL ON OUR
WAY. ON THIS TRANSITION TO
SAFER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE PEST
MANAGEMENT TOOLS. AND WITH THAT
MISTER CHAIRMAN I'D BE HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT THE
COMMITTEE MAY HAVE IN STORE
VERY GOOD SECRETARY. ROSS DID
YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO. ADD ON
YOUR SITE THE LEDGER. HE OF THE
ONLY THING I'D LIKE TO MISTER
BECAUSE THAT- IN ORDER TO DO
THIS THERE IS A GREAT
APPRECIATION FOR THE NEED FOR
MINUTES ON THE GROUND.
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO SUPPORT
FARMERS AND RANCHERS IN DOING
THIS. IT IS A MATTER OF
ADDITIONAL RESEARCH FOR
ALTERNATIVES AND HAVING PEOPLE
IN THE FIELD TRUSTED SOURCES
FROM COOPERATIVE EXTENSION.
DOING FIELD TRIALS HOLDING
DEMONSTRATION DAYS PROVIDING
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO FARMERS
RANCHERS AND THE PAST CONTROL
ADVISORS. WE ALSO INCLUDE AS
PART OF THAT GRANT FUNDING THAT
WOULD. WOULD COME ABOUT FROM
THESE FUNDS- THE AGRICULTURAL
RESEARCH INSTITUTE WHICH IS
PART OF THE CSU SYSTEM. THE CSU
SYSTEM- THROUGH ITS VARIOUS
COLLEGES THAT HAVE AGRICULTURE
DEPARTMENTS- HAVE BECOME ON THE
TRAINING GROUND FOR MANY OF OUR
PEST CONTROL ADVISORS IN
ADDITION. TO YOUNG
PROFESSIONALS IN AGRICULTURAL
SECTOR WHO DO THIS FOR THE
FARMERS AND RANCHERS THEY GO ON
TO WORK FOR. THANK YOU. I
NOTICED THAT THE GOVERNOR'S
REQUEST IS ASKING FOR FORTY
FOUR POSITIONS FOR DPR BUT NO
POSITIONS FOR- THE DEPARTMENT
OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE. TO DO
THIS- COMPREHENSIVE TRANSITION
TO SAFETY IS THAT IS THAT. JUST
GONNA BE OBSERVABLE. WE BELIEVE
THAT'S A- BASED ON- CRY STATE
AT OFFICE OF AND BY FARMING AND
IF. AND OFF HAS CON. AND NOW-
WE ANTI TO RUN THE- THROUGH.
AND MAKE AS A AS TO GET THE
DOLLARS WORK. AS THE VISION AS-
AND STILL DIRECT THEM IN A WAY
THAT ALIGNS WITH STATE POLICY
BILLS. OKAY FIVE THANK YOU.
FIVE- BELIAU YOU HAVE A
DIFFERENT TAKE ON THIS. I'M
MISTER FRENCH MAN IS WITH THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE-
WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT IT
WAS LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL THAT
MADE THE DETERMINATION THAT
THIS WAS A TWO THIRDS VOTE I'M
PRIOR TO GOING INTO MY ARM
ASSESSMENT- BUT OVERALL WE FIND
THAT ADJUSTING THE MOLASSES MAN
IS WARRANTED GIVEN THE
STRUCTURAL DEFICIT IN THE
DEPARTMENT SPECIAL FINE- IS THE
DPR FONG. WE FIND THAT
ESTABLISHING A TIERED BELL
ASSESSMENT THAT PLACES A HIGHER
CHARGE ON MORE TOXIC PESTICIDE
IS REASONABLE AND COULD ADDRESS
ISSUES RELATED TO THE NEGATIVE
EFFECTS OF PESTICIDE USE- WE
ALSO FINE. THAT THE SPENDING.
PROPOSAL BY THE GOVERNOR'S
REASONABLE GIVEN THAT IT
LARGELY ASSIST THE STATE IN
REDUCING PESTICIDE USAGE. AND
EXPAND THE STATE'S EFFORTS IN
UPHOLDING PESTICIDE LAWS AND
REGULATIONS. HAVE A RECOMMEND
THAT THE LEGISLATURE BASIN ANY
TOURNAMENT ASSESSMENT AND ONE
OR TWO YEARS INSTEAD OF THE
FOUR YEARS THAT THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSING. FIND AT A FOR YOUR
FACE AND IS- QUITE LONG
ALTHOUGH WE RECOGNIZE THAT AS
THE FACE AN WOULD REDUCE SHORT
TERM COST THE BUYERS AND
SELLERS OF PESTICIDES. IT DOES
HAVE SOME NOTABLE DRAWBACKS-
ONE AND POTENTIALLY A WEEKENDS
THE MARKET SIGNALED THAT THE
PROPOSAL'S TRYING TO ACHIEVE BY
SPREADING OUT- THE RATE
INCREASES OVER FOUR YEARS. AND
THEN IT GENERATES A SMALL
AMOUNT OF REVENUES EARLY ON
WHICH REQUIRES SOME GENERAL
FUND TO COVER PROPOSED SPENDING-
AND ARE. WE PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE
BASIN SO THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSAL THAT USES THE SAME
RATE. BUT ARE IMPLEMENTED A ONE
OR ONE OR TWO YEARS AND WE
THINK THAT PROVIDES-
FLEXIBILITY THE LEGISLATURE AND
ALSO PROVIDES- SPENDING OUR
REVENUES TO COVER PROPOSED
SPENDING. I WOULD ALSO
RECOMMEND THAT THE LEGISLATURE
ALIGN ANY NEW SPENDING WITH THE
RATE AT WHICH REVENUES ARE
GENERATED- WE BELIEVE THIS
ALLOWS- NúMERO MILK NúMERO
REVENUES THE FULLY FUND THAT
PROPOSED SPENDING. ELIMINATES
GENERAL FUND COSTS AND
POTENTIALLY PROVIDES MORE
IMMEDIATE RELIEF TO THE DPR
FIND. THEN WE ALSO HAVE TO-
LARGER POLICY QUESTIONS THAT
THE LEGISLATURE- MIGHT
CONSIDER. ONE IS SIGNAL WHERE
THE BEST BASIS FOR TIERED TAX-
MINISTRATION IS PROPOSING TO
BASE ITS TIERED MELLUS BASED ON
A- PRODUCTS SIGNAL WORD. WHICH
INDICATES A PRODUCTS RELATIVELY
CUTE TOXICITY TO HUMANS. AND
SPEAKING EXPERTS IN THE FIELD
ACUTE TOXICITY DOESN'T
NECESSARILY CORRELATE WITH
CHRONIC TOXICITY OR LARGER
ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS- SO THE
EXTENT THAT THIS PROPOSAL-
ADDRESSES THESE ISSUES IS.
UNCLEAR AS TO THE LEGISLATURE
MAY WISH TO EXPLORE THE
FEASIBILITY OF- ALTERNATIVES
THAT COULD ADDRESS A BROADER
RANGE OF PESTICIDE RELATED
CONCERNS. AND ALSO- SHOULD THE
PROPOSAL REFLECT REVENUE
TARGETS ARE MARKET SIGNAL- THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED RATE
INCREASES WOULD RAISE ENOUGH
REVENUES TO COVER PROPOSED
SPENDING ONCE FULLY
IMPLEMENTED. THAT WOULD ADDRESS
THE STRUCTURAL DEFICIT IN THE
DPR FINE IN THE LONG RUN.
HOWEVER UPON FULL
IMPLEMENTATION THE PROPOSAL
WOULD LIKELY WIDE IN THE PRICE
DIFFERENCEBETWEEN THE HIGHEST
AND LOWEST TIER BY ROUGHLY TWO
PERCENT. I FIND THAT THE
RELATIVELY SMALL PRICE
DIFFERENCE WOULD NOT LIKELY
RESULT IN A LARGE- CHANGE IN
THE MIX OF PESTICIDES USED IN
THE STATE. THE LEGISLATURE-
COULD CONSIDER- A DIFFERENT SET
OF RATES THAN BEING. PROPOSED
BY THE ADMINISTRATION. OKAY IT
IS. THE THAT YOU KNOW WE HAVE
THE SAME GRADE PEST WE WANT
PEOPLE TO MOVE TO LA LESS TOXIC-
PESTICIDES IN IT MAY BE. IT MAY
NOT BE THE PHARMACY THE- MENON
WITH CAN GET ON THE SHELF IS
PRETTY TOXIC AND- WE KNOW FROM
FIRES THAT SOMETIMES. I'LL SAVE
THESE THINGS LIKE A TREASURE
FOR YEARS THOUSAND HUNDREDS
DECADES YOU KNOW THEY WANNA
THEY BOUGHT SOMETHING IN THE
SIXTIES. IF IT SEEMS TO ME THAT
THE VIEWS THE FEDERAL T. SIGNAL
WORD IT'S SOMETHING THAT
EVERYBODY'S FAMILIAR WITH
WHETHER IT'S BETTER OR WORSE
WHAT WOULD YOU. PROPOSE FOR
WHAT IS THE IS. ERIN CALIFORNIA
HAS MANY OF THEIR OWN STANDARDS%
SO THAT I DON'T WANT OPEN UP
THAT CAN OF WORMS TO SAY WELL
THIS IS WHAT THE REST OF STATES
DO WITH THIS IS CALIFORNIA WHAT
WOULD. WHAT WOULD IT BE WHAT
WHAT WHAT GIVE ME SOME IDEA OF
WHAT WOULD USE OTHER THAN THE
WORDS- MISTER CHAIR OFFICE
DOESN'T HAVE BEEN NAMED
ALTERNATIVE- AT THIS POINT IN
TIME- WE'RE JUST POINTING OUT
THAT. IN TERMS OF ADDRESSING
LARGER AFFECTS THE NEGATIVE
EFFECTS RELATED TO PESTICIDES
THAT SIGNAL WORD WHAT
NECESSARILY CAPTURE ALL OF THEM
SO JUST POINTING THAT OUT TO
THE LEGISLATURE AND- MAYBE
EVEN- CONSIDERING OTHER
ALTERNATIVES FROM THIS POINT.
AND DURING ITS DELIBERATIONS.
OKAY GOOD ENOUGH FOR US CENTER
DOLLY- MY GOSH OKAY THE- FIRST
OFF. I GOT A QUESTION WHAT WHAT
SO. THE MIL TAXES BEEN STATIC
BUT IT'S GROWN OVER OVER THE
OVER THE YEARS BY MORE THAN
TWENTY MILLION WHICH- HAS A LOT
OF THE DPR BUDGET TO GROW YET
FACING THE STRUCTURAL DEFICIT
CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW THIS
OCCURRED. WELL SURE SENATOR
DOLLY- YOU KNOW WE'VE HAD A
NUMBER OF NEW OBLIGATIONS OVER
THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS
INCLUDING PERS PAYMENTS THAT
WE'VE HAD TO MAKE. EMPLOYEE
COMPENSATION AND YOU KNOW THE
DEMAND OUR PROGRAMS HAS BECOME
THAT MUCH GREATER AS WELL SO.
WE'RE DOING A WHOLE LOT MORE
ACROSS THE DEPARTMENT. WITH THE
SAME AMOUNT OF RESOURCES THE
BILL'S BEEN STATIC AS YOU POINT
OUT SINCE TWO THOUSAND FOUR.
AND SO WE BELIEVE THAT WE
REALLY NEED TO MAKE NEW
INVESTMENTS TO REFLECT SOME OF
THE NEW THINGS THAT WE'RE
DOING- I'M MINDFUL OF BEING A
CAREFUL STEWARD OF TAXPAYER
DOLLARS THAT'S A VERY IMPORTANT
PART OF MY CHARGE YOUR- AS THE
DIRECTOR OF THE PART. OF THE
DEPARTMENT. BUT WHAT WE'RE
BEING ASKED TO DO BY
CALIFORNIANS FROM THOSE IN THE
FIELD TO THOSE IN THE BACKYARD.
OUR NEW AND I REALLY WANT TO BE
ABLE TO INVEST IN. IN PRACTICES
AND TOOLS AND THINGS THAT WILL
BENEFIT WHAT CALIFORNIANS ARE
ASKING US NOW. I THAT
INFORMATION I UNDERSTAND THAT
THE COST OF- EMPLOYEES IS
CONSTANTLY GOING UP IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. AND THAT'S
YOUR YOU HAVE EIGHT MILLION
DOLLAR DEFICIT. WHILE YOU'RE
ASKING TO INCREASE THE TAX
WHICH I BELIEVE IS VERY- MISS
GUY I THINK THIS WHOLE THING'S
MISS KIND I THINK THE WRONG
TIME TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION.
WE'RE A PANDEMIC. FOR USING
YOUR YOUR RECORD WE'RE ASKING
PEOPLE TO USE THESE THINGS TO
STAY SAFE. AT THIS TIME WE'RE
GONNA CHANGE THE WHOLE. CONCEPT
OF HOW WE- REGULATE AND TAX
THESE PRODUCTS EASIER HOUSEHOLD
PRODUCTS THAT PEOPLE USE
EVERYDAY I MEAN CENTER MCGUIRE
HAS A BOTTLE OVER HERE THAT HAS
INTERNET TIES ARE NOT THAT.
COULD BE TALKING TO SOMEBODY.
SO WHY IS THE TIME RIGHT NOW I
THINK I THINK WE NEED TO WAIT
ON THIS I THINK IT'S THE WRONG
TIME LOOK AS A FORMER WE'VE
BEEN USING. AND TRYING TO
REDUCE- LOOK WE DON'T WANT TO
USE THESE PRODUCTS WE HAVE TO
USE THESE PRODUCTS. IS SAME AS
THE HOUSEWIFE OR THE- THE
GENTLEMAN AT HOME THAT IS
TRYING TO KEEP HIS FAMILY SAFE.
SO YOU KNOW WE'RE WE'RE WE'RE
GOING AT A TIME I THINK THIS IS
JUST TOTALLY THE WRONG TIME I
THINK TO THE CHANGING HOW WE'RE
GOING TO IDENTIFY THEM. IS NOT
THE RIGHT WAY TO GO AND ON TOP
OF THAT. BUT WE DID TALK ABOUT
OF ISSUE ONE. WHICH IS ASKING
FOR ANOTHER FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS TO DO THAT THE I. T.
PROCESS WHICH IS. YOU KNOW
MAYBE A HIGHER DISNEYLAND THEY
SEEM TO MOVE PEOPLE VERY
EFFICIENTLY AND HAVE WITH THE
WAY TO GET THINGS DONE. AND
THAT THE I. T. IN CALIFORNIA
WHETHER IT'S THE E. D. WHETHER
IT'S DPR WEATHER'S DGSE.
WHETHER IT'S- YOU KNOW THE-
DEPART- NAG THEY'RE TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT THERE IT WAS IT'S A
BOY. AND IT'S- FUN. AND IT'S
BECAUSE- SO FROM I THINK THIS
IS. TOTALLY THE WRONG TO. I
THINK THAT. YOU KNOW YOU HAVE
EIGHT MILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT IS
BECAUSE WE'RE USING LESS
PESTICIDES. WE ARE WE'RE AND
THAT'S A PROVEN FACT THAT WERE
USING LESS WERE USING SOFTER
ONES. M. AND WE'RE DRAW AND
MORE SO AS THAT. DECREASES THE
REVENUE HAS TO COME UP
SOMEWHERE WE GET THAT. BUT AT
THE END OF THE DAY THIS THIS IS
THE WRONG TIME I DIMINISH THE
PANDEMIC TAX. RIGHT NOW WHEN
PEOPLE NEED. TO USE THESE
PRODUCTS YOU'RE PUTTING A TAX
ON IT SO FOR ME IT'S WRONG AND
I WANT TO JUST CLOSE WITH LAST
THING THAT I THINK IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING IN CALIFORNIA
RIGHT NOW WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
PESTICIDES. THERE ARE LITERALLY
THOUSANDS. OF PEOPLE WHO ARE
GROWING. POT MARIJUANA. IT ALL
OVER THE PLACE USING PESTICIDES
THAT ARE AND AREN'T BEING
ENFORCED ARE BEING REGULATED
AND IT'S DESTROYING OUR
WILDLIFE AND OUR IN OUR STREAMS
AND HAVE THAT THAT'S A FACT AND
IF THE IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME
JUST GO TO GOOGLE EARTH AND
LOOK AT SISKIYOU COUNTY. IS
IT'S CRAZY IF THERE'S A PLACE
THAT WE REALLY WANT TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT PESTICIDES DR
WE WILL BE FOCUSING WOULD BE
PUT IN A PANDEMIC TAX RIGHT NOW
WHEN PEOPLE ARE NEEDING THESE
AND WE'RE GONNA CONFUSE AMONG
THE LABELING FOR THE PEOPLE
THAT ARE TRYING TO IMPLEMENT
IT. SO I THINK THIS NEED TO BE
A LITTLE MORE WELL THOUGHT OUT
I THINK WE SHOULD GIVE YOU
EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS TO FUND
YOUR DEFICIT. IT TAKE SOME TIME
THIS I THINK IS TOLD MISSED IN
THE WRONG TIME THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR I APPRECIATE THAT SENATOR
DOLE IN IF I COULD JUST RESPOND
TO A COUPLE OF YOUR POINTS
THERE I AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT
THE CANNABIS ISSUE AND THAT'S
WHY WE'VE BEEN WORKING CLOSELY
WITH COUNTY SHERIFF'S
DEPARTMENT ALL OF THE STATE
PARTICULARLY IN THE NORTHERN
PART OF THE STATE WHERE MANY
ILLEGAL PESTICIDES THAT ARE
BROUGHT IN FROM OUT OF THE
UNITED STATES AND USED IN THESE
MARIJUANA GROWS. REALLY WREAK
HAVOC NOT ONLY ON THE LOCAL
ENVIRONMENT LOCAL WILDLIFE AND
FRANKLY SHERIFF'S DEPUTIES
GOING IN AND TRYING TO CLEAN
THOSE UP WITHOUT REALLY KNOWING
WHAT THEY'RE DEALING WITH SO
WE'RE TRYING TO WORK WITH
SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENTS AND LOCAL
LAW ENFORCEMENT ON THAT ISSUE
BUT WITH REGARD TO THE I. T.
PROJECT YOU KNOW I'M THE
DIRECTOR OF THE DEPARTMENT AND
I WILL TAKE THE HIT FOR WHAT
WE'VE DONE INCORRECTLY IN THE
PAST I THINK WE'VE RETHOUGHT
THE WAY WE'RE DOING ELECTRONIC
REGISTRATION OF PESTICIDE
PACKAGES AND THE PROPOSAL IN
FRONT OF THE LEGISLATURE THIS
YEAR IS FAR MORE POSSIBLE. BUT
WITH REGARD TO THE SIGNAL WORDS
YOU KNOW WE LOOKED AT THE
SIGNAL WORDS THAT ARE USED BY
U. S. EPA THE NON HARSH AND
WARNING. DANGEROUS FLASHPOINTS
AND- THERE ALTERNATIVES SENATOR
HOUSE LIKE YOU WRIST. MODE FOR.
NON RESTRICTED MATERIAL BUT WE
REALLY FELT THAT THE SIGNAL
WORDS. WERE MORE COMMONLY KNOWN
TO USERS OF PESTICIDES. AROUND
THE STATE AND THAT'S WHY WE
SETTLED ON THAT ISSUE. AND
FINALLY SENATOR DOLE YOU KNOW
YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT THAT
I'D LOVE TO GET UP TO BEAVER AT
SOME POINT THIS SPRING AND
WALKED THE FIELDS WITH YOU AND-
TALK A LITTLE BIT MRE ABOUT
WHAT NORTH STATE FARMERS ARE
USING IN TERMS OF. PROPERTY
ACTION TOOLS I THINK THAT'S AN
IMPORTANT PART OF MY JOB. ABOUT
50% OF THE PESTICIDES THAT WE
REGULATE HERE AT THE P. R. OR
USED IN. THE AGRICULTURAL
SETTING IN ABOUT 50% YOU'D FIND
UNDER YOUR SINK. OR IN THE
HOUSEHOLD ENVIRONMENT SO WHAT
WE'RE TRYING TO DO WITH THIS
PROPOSAL. IS WORK TO SUPPORT
WHAT I HEAR EVERY DAY FROM LOTS
OF CALIFORNIANS INCLUDING
GROWERS. AND HOUSEHOLD FOLKS
AND COMMUNITY ADVOCATES AND
OTHERS WHO WERE IMPACTED. BY
PESTICIDES AND THAT'S TO
CONTINUE THE TRANSITION. THAT
THE STATE HAS EMBARKED ON OVER
THE LAST NUMBER OF YEARS TO.
SAFER AND MORE SUSTAINABLE WAYS
TO MANAGE PASS. YOU'RE RIGHT.
THE PESTICIDE USE REPORTS THAT
I SEE EVERY YEAR DO INDICATE.
THAT THE USE OF THINGS LIKE
BIOPESTICIDES AND SO OFFERS
ANOTHER ORGANIC COMPOUNDS. ARE
GOING UP. AND THE MORE
DANGEROUS OR TOXIC PESTICIDES
LIKE FUMIGANTS INORGANIC
PHOSPHATES AND OTHERS. ARE
GOING DOWN. WHAT WE HOPE TO DO
WITH THIS PROPOSAL IS
ACCELERATE THE TRANSITION. I
JUST WANT TO SAY LOOK I'M NOT.
MAKING THIS PERSONAL I BELIEVE
IN YOUR HEART THAT YOU'RE
YOU'RE TRYING TO DO THE RIGHT
THING. AND I'M AND I'M NOT.
SINGLING YOU OUT AS FAR AS I.
T. DEPARTMENT I JUST WANT TO
HAVE. I JUST ASK YOU YOU KNOW.
GIVE ME ONE EXAMPLE OF. IN THE
STATE WHERE I TEASE WORK IN IN
IT WHAT HAPPENS IS WE JUST
HEARD FROM. THE NEW DIRECTOR AT
THE EDT. AND YOU KNOW WE GET A
NEW DIRECTOR ABOUT EVERY SIX TO
EIGHT MONTHS MAYBE A YEAR%
BECAUSE- THEN THEY BLAME IT ON
THE LAST ONE I MEAN. THE POINT
IS THAT. I THINK IT'S B. WHO'S
THE LEGISLATURE TO DO SOMETHING
ABOUT IT ACROSS THE BOARD I'M
I'M I'M JUST MAKE AN EXAMPLE
OF. HERE'S A THE AND YES EVEN
IF I MAY IT'S TWENTY TWO.
POINTS MIL NOW ON A PROCESS
THAT WE DON'T HAVE. AN AYE AND
I'M ONE OF THOSE GUYS IT HAS TO
OUT THE- AND- THEN DO THIS FOR.
ARE MY OWN. SO LOOK IT'S NOT
PERSONAL IT'S JUST I THINK
ACROSS THE BOARD WE DID WE DID.
IN BUT WE TO HAVE A- AND SEE
WHAT IS THE- HERE I MEAN THIS
IS THE TECH CAPITAL WORLD.
THERE ISN'T VERY TO BE A STATE.
HERE BECAUSE NOTHING AS FAR AS
I. T. WE JUST HEARD FROM THE-
CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT- NAG
ABOUT HOW WE CAN. STOP THE
DUPLICATION OB. YOU KNOW I'LL
PROBABLY BE DEAD BY THE TIME
THAT HAPPENS. BUT I'M
FRUSTRATED I WELL I HAVEN'T
HEARD YOU. ANYTIME YOU WANT TO
COME UP TO LET'S GO TO SISKIYOU.
COUNTY BECAUSE- YOU THERE'S
WILD BILL STILL THERE. BUT NOT
FOR LONG WE DON'T USE. ABOUT
THESE PROGRESS IN IT'S JUST. ME
UP THERE YOU KNOW WHO PENALIZED
IN THIS PROCESS. IS THE FORMER
TRYING TO DO IT. HE ALWAYS GETS.
BECAUSE YOU HAVE SAID THAT CAN
FIND HIM YOU CAN TAKE IT YOU
COULD DO SOMETHING TO HIM AND
EVENTUALLY PUT HIM OUT OF
BUSINESS. WITH A PARTNER OR
WOULD YOU. WE DON'T PUT HIM IN
JAIL. BECAUSE OUR WE'RE NOT OUT
OF JAIL. NOT NO THERE'S NO WAY
TO. THEM ACCOUNTABLE. YOU WANT
TO ABOUT FRESH. THE FARM DOWN
THIS. WHO IS. INSIST YOU CAN.
WHOSE IS TRYING TO HAVE. RIGHT
AS YOU LOOK UP ON THE HILL.
NCC'S ROAST EVERYWHERE.
DESTROYING THE WHILE. THAT HE
TRYING TO PUT. IT IS. FLAT
WRONG I'M GONNA PUT THE- YOU.
I'M SAYING. NEED TO. A GOOD
LOOK AT THIS WHEN. TO GO. OUT
THERE. AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT
IT BECAUSE- AT THE END OF THE
DAY. WE ARE DESTROYING OUR
WILDLIFE AND WATERSHEDS. WITH
ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN AND
IT'S ALL ON US. SO I'M I'M A
PARTNER WITH YOU. COME UP LET'S
GO DO IT ALL TAKE OUT THERE AND
WE'LL TRY TO FIGURE OUT A WAY.
TO LOOK I GOT I GET CALLS FROM
MY- SURE EVERY DAY. ABOUT THE
FRUSTRATION LEVELS THEY HAVE.
TRYING TO GET ENFORCEMENT THANK
YOU. OKAY OTHER. AT I'D LIKE
FOR. TO AND YOU CAN EVEN IT NOW
DO WITH. STRAIGHT EITHER. MISS
A- MISTER. I OUR MISTER HALL.
OR MISS. A C. INCLUDING IN HERE-
FOR BOTH. A MILL. PERCENT
POSITION ON GO. FOR AIR MATA.
THAT FUNDING AND THEN. IN
INCREASE COMMUNITY. IS SET
FORTH IN. AB SIX ONE SEVEN. WE
KNOW FINANCED YOU GUYS HAVE.
ARE ASKING FOR A BIG CHUNK OF
MONEY FOR- COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
AND AIR MONITORING FROM OUR-
CARBON REDUCTION PROGRAM CAP
AND TRADE. MY QUESTION IS. IS
THAT WE KNOW HOW MUCH- COMES
FROM PASSED WHAT COMES. FIX
SOURCES WHAT COMES ROTATION IS
THE- IS THE ONE POINT FIVE
MILLION THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
THE DPR FUND WAITED IS THAT THE
PROPORTIONALITY OF POLLUTION
THAT'S CREATED FROM PESTICIDES.
HI LIZZY EERIE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE I'D ACTUALLY LIKE TO
ASK MY COLLEAGUES AT THE
DEPARTMENT PESTICIDE REGULATION
TO AND TAKE THIS QUESTION THANK
YOU. THEIR BRAINS CARRY MORE
SLIM ONE OF THE CSU TRACTOR IS
I THINK YOU ARE. AND SO DID THE
PURPOSE THE FUNDING THAT
PROPOSED FOR THE MONITORING AS
WELL TO WORK THIS BEING DONE SO.
WITHIN THE THAT WE HAVE TO
START FUND THROUGH. FUND I'M
AND THIS IS PRETTY FOR MOM OR
SIDES WE DO THE SAME OR WITH
CARD. AND IS ASKING KERR OF HOW
WE ABOUT AND- WITH AT
AGRICULTURE PASSES USE AND HOW.
AT. MONITOR THOSE AT. ACROSS
THE STATE. WITH REGARDS THE
BUSINESS OR- FOR ENGAGED. THIS
WAS REALLY PROMPT FIRED. AROUND
A SIX. IN SOME INTENSIVE
COMMUNITY. AND EVEN HAVING GET
IN PART WITH COMMUNITIES
HEARING. I CAN AS WELL AS WITH
CARBON WILL ARTISTS BUT WE SEE
THIS IS BEING AN AREA THAT WE
REALLY. TO EXPAND INTO AND ALL
OF THE WORK THAT DOING THERE IS
A AND COMMUNITIES THAT ARE NOT
INCLUDE IN THE EIGHTIES SEVENTY
AT YOU HAVE. A HAVE PESTICIDES
BEING YOU. WITHIN THEIR- IS ONE
TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE
SUFFICIENT RESOURCE TO BE ABLE
TO ENGAGE WITH THOSE
COMMUNITIES STATE. OF THAT
MAYBE NICE THAT YOU REALLY WANT
TO DO THAT AND GOVERNMENT HAS
THAT'S A LOT OF OTHER THINGS MY
QUESTION IS AND THEY'LL HAVE TO
GET BACK RIGHT NOW BUT- BUT-
THIS ISN'T YOUR POLLUTION
PROGRAM. IT'S AN AIR POLLUTION
PROGRAM TO GO IN THE MONITOR
CARE POLLUTION AND SOME
PESTICIDES THERE'S GONNA BE
SOME PERCENTAGE OF POLLUTION
THERE ARE. AIR PARTICLE SINGLE
WINDOW IT'S RIGHTFULLY SO
COMING UNDER THE DPR. FINANCES
ASK FOR A LOT OF MONEY TO COME
OUT OF A CRIME RATE REDUCTION
GREENHOUSE GASES WHICH IS
NOTHING TO DO WITH AIR
POLLUTION YOU DON'T HAVE TO
MESS YOU COULD HAVE CARBON YOU
HAVE. MEANT THING IT GETS
FUNDED HERE SO I JUST WANT TO
LOOK TO SEE IF THE
PROPORTIONALITY IS SUCH IF IT'S
NOT AND WE JUST WANT TO DO
COMMUTING GAUGE WHEN. FOR
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT IN THE
PESTICIDE WORLD. BE SURE THAT
WE KNOW THAT THAT THAT
DISTINCTION THAT YOU'RE MAKING
THE TO SAYING WE NEED TO BE
ENGAGING THE COMMUNITIES FOR
PESTICIDES ON ITS OWN. NOT
BECAUSE OFTHE- SEVEN THE
POTENTIAL AIR QUALITY IMPACT IT
WOULD TAKE IS IT WILL HELP US
MAKING THESE DECISIONS AND-
DECIDING WHICH PART OF MONEY IS
MORE APPROPRIATE TO FUND THESE.
PROGRAMS THAT WE WANT TO DO
VERSUS GRABBING FOR THE DAY.
THE GREEN PORK THAT'S AVAILABLE
ON OTHER PROGRAMS SO THAT'S- IT
WILL GET BACK TO THAT THAT'S
GOOD. CONNECTICUT AND I CAN
PART ABLE OUR APPROPRIATE WE
HAVE DO SO. CHANGES OF A OF
STEPS WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A-
TWO MINUTES PAUSE ON THE
HEARING AND THEN WILL. WITH A
FOR A GENDER ON PAR BE WE WILL
HAVE- THE EXCEPT FOR. COMING.
OKAY ARE SUBCOMMITTEE- TWO OF
THE BUDGET IN FISCAL REVIEW ON
RESOURCES ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION AND ENERGY-
UNFORTUNATELY WE NO LONGER HAVE
TRANSPORTATION WHICH IS
INTERESTING THAT WE WOULD HAVE
TO STEP FALLS OFF COMING IN.
WE'RE GOING TO START OFF WITH
PRESENTATIONS FROM THE ENERGY.
COMMISSION WITH A- MISTER
MONAGHAN AND THEN FOLLOWED BY
DIFFERENT COMPONENTS WITH THE-
YOUR RESOURCE BOARD AND- THE GO
BIZ SECTION SILVA MR MONAGHAN
GOOD MORNING WELCOME TO
SUBCOMMITTEE YOU MAY PROCEED.
IT MORNING SHARE NUMBERS- IT'S
ACTUALLY MS ON HAND. SO I'M
SPENDING MONEY DOWN ON THE LEAD
MR FOR TRANSFER AT THE ENERGY
PRESSURE- A WARNING TO ALL THE
OTHER I'M GOING BE DRINKING A
LOT OF HE ADVICE BE- APPARENTLY
MARKET A TODAY. THE MORE MY
ALLERGIES INTO HIGH SO
HOPEFULLY I WILL WILL MAKE IT-
BUT DESPITE MY OUR AND REALLY
BY TO BE HERE TALK ABOUT THE
GOVERNOR'S. AS A REAL TO THEIR
MISSION YEAH FOR THAT AS WE
LIKE CALL THEM. I DON'T YOU'RE
SAYING THAT THE WILL OF THE
ENERGY COMMISSION AND THE AIR
RESTORE BOARD ARE COMPLEMENT
AND IT'S THE WHAT COMES TO
THEIR MISSION VEHICLE MY AGENCY
IS THE LEAD FOR INFRASTRUCTURE
AND THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD IS
THE LEAD FOR VEHICLES. AND ARE
AGENCIES WORK VERY CLOSELY
TOGETHER- WHEN IT COMES TO THAT
AND WE ALSO WORK WITH OTHER
STATE AGENCIES LIKE THE PUBLIC
UTILITIES COMMISSION GO BEARS
AND OTHERS AND WE'RE ALL
WORKING TOGETHER AND
COLLABORATING TO SUPPORT
CALIFORNIA'S. GOALS ON CLIMATE
AND CLEAN TRANSPORTATION. TO
ADDRESS THIS CHALLENGE OF AIR
QUALITY IN CLIMATE CHANGE
BECAUSE YOU ALL KNOW. NEWSOM
HAS. GOALS THAT. THE ON A CLEAR
COLD. TO ELECTRIFY TRY. THESE
NEGATIVE ORDER THAT SUCH THE
GOAL THAT A 100% OF NEW
PASSENGER VEHICLES WILL BE
THEIR EMISSION BY TWENTY THIRTY
FIVE. AND ALSO ESTABLISHES
GOALS FOR DIESEL POWERED
VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT TO
ELECTRIFY OVER THE NEXT FIFTEEN
TO TWENTY FIVE YEARS. OUR
SERVICE AND WE RECOGNIZE BOTH
THE CHALLENGES AND THE
OPPORTUNITIES TO ACHIEVE THESE
AMBITIOUS TARGETS. AND THE
CRITICAL IMPORTANCE OF HAVING
EQUITY AS A CORNERSTONE TO
EVERYTHING WE DO. POLLS WILL BE
BUILT ON WHAT WE ARE SEEING
HAPPENING AT A GLOBAL LEVEL THE
SEVENTEEN COUNTRIES HAVE
COMMITTED TO A 1100% ELECTRIC
VEHICLE FUTURE. IN JANUARY THE
GOVERNOR MASSACHUSETTS FOLLOWED
GOVERNESS AND LEAD AND SET THE
SAME GOAL CALIFORNIA HUNDRED
PERCENT. ED'S IN THE PASSENGER
VEHICLE SEGMENT BY TWENTY
THIRTY FIVE. AND I MAKERS ARE
SEEING THE WRITING ON THE WALL
AND THEY ARE DEEPLY INVESTING
IN TRANSLATIONAL APPLICATIONS
WELL. LAST MONTH GENERAL MOTORS
BECAME THE FIRST AMERICAN
AUTOMAKER HE SAID THE SAME GOAL
AS CALIFORNIA 100% YOU NEEDS BY
TWENTY THIRTY FIVE. AND JUST
LAST WEEK FORD ANNOUNCED THAT
IT WAS ELECTRIFYING ALL
PASSENGER VEHICLES.
INTERESTINGLY ALL COMMERCIAL
VEHICLES BY TWENTY THIRTY IN
EUROPE. THAT'S A REALLY THEY'RE
STARTING TO GO MAINSTREAM TODAY
THERE ARE FORTY SIX DIFFERENT
MODELS OF ELECTRIC CARS
AVAILABLE AND MANY MORE ARE ON
THE WAY. EARLY NEXT YEAR FORD
IS PLANNING TO RELEASE AN
ELECTRIC MODELS OF ITS
SIGNATURE. F. ONE FIFTY PICKUP
TRUCK WHICH IS THE BEST SELLING
CAR IN AMERICA. AND ACCORDING
TO FORD THE ELECTRIC MODEL WILL
HAVE THE BEST HORSE POWER THE
BEST WORK AND THE BEST
ACCELERATION OF ANY F. ONE
FIFTY SO. DOES THAT MEAN YOU'RE-
IT ACTUALLY MEANS YOU'RE
GETTING- A BETTER PERFORMING
VEHICLE. AND THE FORD F. ONE
FIFTY OKAY YOU'RE GOING TO BE
ABLE TO CHARGE YOUR POWER TOOLS
FROM THE VEHICLE AND FORD IS
ALSO- HAVING. THE POTENTIAL FOR
THE VEHICLETO PUT TO SUPPLY
ENERGY BACK TO THE GRID SO
THEY'RE REALLY THINKING ABOUT
THIS AS HOW DO WE CREATE A
WHOLE ECOSYSTEM OF
ELECTROCUTION THAT BENEFITS
CONSUMERS. CALIFORNIA HAS OVER
EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOES
FOLD WHICH IS JUST SHY OF HALF
OF THE U. S. TOTAL. AND I THINK
WHEN IT COMES TO ZERO EMISSION
TRANSPORTATION CALIFORNIA. IS
THE NEW MICHIGAN. FOR THEIR
MISSION VEHICLES WERE BECAME
OUR NUMBER ONE EXPORT LAST YEAR
THEY WERE NUMBER TWO THE YEAR
BEFORE. THERE ARE THREE HUNDRED
AND SIXTY INDIVIDUAL THAT
RELATED COMPANIES IN THE STATE
AND THIRTY FOUR THAT RELATED
MANUFACTURERS WITH A TOTAL OF
SEVENTY THOUSAND DIRECT JOBS IN
THE INDUSTRY. THE GOVERNOR'S
NEWSOME BUDGET- WILL HELP THE
STATE SCALE UP AND OVERCOME KEY
BARRIERS TO ELECTRIFYING THEIR
MISSION VEHICLES. ASSEMBLY THE
PROGRAM PROPOSES TO EXTEND THE
AB EIGHT PROGRAM PROVIDES FIVE
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS IN
INCENTIVES FOR THEIR MISSION
VEHICLES. AND GRANT THE C. C.
BONDING AUTHORITY TO FRONT LOAD
BILLION DOLLARS INVESTMENT IN
ZERO EMISSION VEHICLE
INFRASTRUCTURE AND I WOULD
EMPHASIZE THAT RUSSIAN VEHICLE
INFRASTRUCTURE INCLUDES BOTH
BATTERY ELECTRIC AND FUEL CELL
ELECTRIC. INFRASTRUCTURE SO WHY
INVEST IN VEHICLES NOW THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET PROPOSES A
HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION FOR GREEN
CARDS FOR ALL. WHICH ALLOWS
LOWER INCOME FAMILIES TO SCRAP
AN OLDER VEHICLE AND REPLACE IT
WITH THE ZERO OR NEAR ZERO
EMISSION VEHICLE. THE BUDGET
ALSO PROPOSES THREE HUNDRED
FIFTEEN MILLION FOR CARB HEAVY
VEHICLE INCENTIVES PROGRAM
PROJECT. WHICH PROVIDES GRANTS
TO REPLACE DIESEL VEHICLES WITH
ZERO EMISSIONS REPLACEMENT. ANY
GRANT PROGRAMS REALLY PROVIDE.
EARLY EDITION REDUCTIONS BEFORE
REGULATIONS ARE ESTABLISHED
THAT WOULD MANDATE THE SWITCH
TO ELECTRIC. AND THESE
PROGRAMS- ARE CRITICAL FOR AIR
DISTRICTS THAT ARE REALLY YOU
KNOW TURNING OVER EVERY ROCK IN
ORDER TO MEET THE PAYMENT
DEADLINES ARE LOOKING FOR
EMISSION REDUCTIONS. I'M
FOCUSED MORE ON INFRASTRUCTURE
SIDE CONSENSUS FATHER ENERGY
THAT- LET ME TALK ABOUT WHY
IT'S IMPORTANT TO INVEST IN
INFRASTRUCTURE NOW. WE OBSERVE
INFRASTRUCTURE THAT CONVENIENT
AND UBIQUITOUS ACROSS THE
STATE- WE ALSO NEED TO MAKE
SURE THAT THE MORE THAN HALF OF
CALIFORNIANS WHO LIVE IN
APARTMENT BUILDINGS. FOR
COMFORTABLE BUYING IS THEIR
MISSION VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY
HAD A CONVENIENT PLACE TO
REFUEL IT. WITHOUT INVESTMENT
NOW WE ARE NOT GOING TO MEET
THE STATE'S TARGETS FOR THAT
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE. CURRENT GOAL IS TO
HAVE TWO HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND
CHARGERS TO SUPPORT ONE POINT
FIVE MILLION EDIE'S AND TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE. WE CONDUCTED
ANALYSIS OF ALL THE INVESTMENTS
THAT WE'RE MAKING UTILITIES ARE
MAKING PRIVATE INDUSTRY THAT'S
GROUP THAT'S REPORTED PUBLICLY
WHAT WE'RE FINDING IS A
SHORTFALL OF SIXTY THOUSAND.
CHARGERS BROUGH TWENTY ONE
STATIONS SHORT OF THE STATE'S
GOAL OF HAVING TWO HUNDRED
HYDROGEN STATIONS BY TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE. WE'LL NEED TO
SIGNIFICANTLY RAMP UP THAT
INFRASTRUCTURE POST TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE TO MEET OUR TARGETS
FOR TWENTY THIRTY AND BEYOND.
SO NOW SAYS THAT- WE ARE
REQUIRED TO DO GOING TO GET THE
LEGISLATURE IS TO PUBLISH-
ANALYSIS OF TWENTY THIRTY
CHARGING NEEDS WHICH WAS
REQUIRED BY AB TWENTY ONE
TWENTY SEVEN. WE'VE DONE A
DRAFT ANALYSIS THAT FINDS THAT
WILL NEED ABOUT ONE POINT FIVE
MILLION CHARGERS TO SUPPORT
EIGHT MILLION PASSENGERS ADDS.
AND THIS IS- WHAT THEY ARE
THESE MOBILE SOURCE STRATEGY
INDICATES THAT WOULD PUT US ON
A TRAJECTORY TO MEET A 100% OF
THAT BY TWENTY THIRTY FIVE.
OKAY PLAN ADVANCES FOR GOALS.
IMPROVING PUBLIC HEALTH.
CUTTING CLIMATE POLLUTION
ADVANCING ECONOMIC RECOVERY AND
JOB CREATION. PROMOTING EQUITY.
ON THE HEALTH SIDE I THINK YOU
THIS IS NO SURPRISE ALL OF YOU-
TRANSLATION IS A MAJOR SOURCE
OF CARBS AIR POLLUTION. IT'S
BECAUSE IT'S THE SOURCE OF 80%
OF THE STATE NOT FORMING
NITROGEN OXIDES 95% OF ITS
POWERFUL. DIESEL PARTICULATE
MATTER AND THIS IS ESPECIALLY
IMPORTANT FOR COMMUNITIES THAT
LIVE NEAR GOODS MOVEMENT
CORRIDORS. AND THAT ARE
PARTICULARLY IMPACTED BY THIS
HARMFUL POLLUTION. ON THE
CLIENT SIDE- IT'S THE SOURCES
50% HALF OF OUR GREENHOUSE
GASES WHEN YOU ACCOUNT FOR THE
EMISSIONS FROM SHALE
PRODUCTION. AND OVER THE LAST
DECADE WE'VE SEEN OUR EMISSIONS
FROM THE ELECTRICITY SECTOR CUT
IN HALF. TRANSPORTATION ISSUES
OF ACTION AND. TRENDING UPWARD-
IT SIDE YOUR BILL THAT OUT OF
SHOULD BE IT JUST. IS NOT
DIDN'T THAT WILL SUPPORT
RECOVERY EITHER SHOVEL READY
PROJECTS THEY'RE GOING TO PUT
CALIFORNIANS TO WORK BUILDING.
THAT WE NEED FOR THE FUTURE.
THE INVESTMENT ALSO SEND THE
MARKET SIGNAL THAT COMPANIES
CAN BANK ON. FINALLY ON THE ON
THE EQUITY SIDE- THE
LEGISLATURE PASSED SB ONE
THOUSAND WHICH REQUIRES THE
ENERGY COMMISSION TO DO AN
ANALYSIS EVERY YEAR ON EQUITY
IMPLICATIONS OF CHARTER
DISTRIBUTION. WE PUBLISHED THE
FIRST REPORT IN DECEMBER AND WE
FOUND- CHARTER DISTRIBUTION
PROBABLY FOLLOWS EASY
DEPLOYMENT BUT WE NEED TO DO A
BETTER JOB ENSURING THAT RURAL
AND MOUNTAIN COMMUNITIES AS
WELL AS LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES
HAVE ACCESS TO CHARGING
INFRASTRUCTURE. WE ALSO NEED AS
A MATTER BEFORE TO ADDRESS THE
FACT THAT HALF OF CALIFORNIANS
LIVE IN MULTIFAMILY DWELLINGS
AND WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT
THE BURDEN. FOR THEM TO CHARGE.
SO TO SUMMARIZE THEIR MISSION
VEHICLES ARE THE- NOT TO THINK
HELL. GLOBALLY IS ABOUT WILL
HELP OVERCOME ONE OF THE
BIGGEST TERRORIST BARRIERS WE
SEE TO THE COMMERCIAL.
COMMERCIALIZATION THEIR MISSION
GETS OLD WHICH IS THE OF
INTEREST. BY INVESTING. WE WILL
MARKETS IN ENCOURAGE ADDITIONAL
INVESTOR BY INTEREST HERE IN
OUR COSTA. GOOD JOB TO HELP THE
ECONOMY TO RECOVER. IT WILL
ALSO PROVOKE PROMOTE MORE
EQUITABLE ACCESS TO ENSURE
EVERYONE BENEFITS FOR THE
FUTURE. I'M JOINED BY HANNAH
RUSSELL WHO IS THE DEPUTY
DIRECTOR OF THE CHILDREN
TRANSPORTATION DIVISION AT THE
ENERGY COMMISSION. AND ALSO BY
SEVENTY PER GUEST WHO IS ADEPT
THE DIVISION CHIEF AT CARP FOR
THE MOBILE SOURCE CONTROL
DIVISION AND I'M GONNA TURN IT
OVER TO THANK YOU CAN MAKE A
FEW REMARKS ON BEHALF OF YOUR
REQUEST. FOR THANK YOU. THANK
YOU COMMISSIONER AND I THINK
YOU CHURN MEMBERS BY WAY OF
INTRODUCTION- MY DIVISION
OVERSEES MEDIUM AND HEAVY DUTY
VEHICLE REGULATIONS AND ALSO
MANY OF CARDS INCENTIVE
PROGRAMS THE CARSON CENTER
PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO
ACHIEVE MULTIPLE GOALS
INCLUDING ELECTRIFICATION BY
MATT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH
BENEFITS AND THE NEED FOR
ACCELERATING- TURNING OVER
OLDER MORE POLLUTING EQUIPMENTS
AND VEHICLES JUST CAN'T BE
OVERSTATED. WELL WE'VE ALL MADE
GREAT PROGRESS OTHER
INVESTMENTS BY THE STATE
STAKEHOLDERS INDUSTRY AND LOCAL
AIR DISTRICTS OVER 90% OF
CALIFORNIANS STILL READ THAT
HEALTHCARE. THE REGULATIONS AND
INCENTIVES BOTH PLAN IMPORTANT
ROLE IN CALIFORNIA'S PORTFOLIO
REGULATIONS CAN SET DEADLINES
FOR THE MANUFACTURE PRODUCTION
ON THE SUBSEQUENT ADOPTION OF
ZERO EMISSION TECHNOLOGY. AND
INSTEAD OF TOPIC SALARY BUT
TAKE OF THAT TECHNOLOGY TO
ENSURE EARLY AIR QUALITY BEING
COMMUNITY HEALTH BENEFITS. SO
GIVE A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE
RELATIVE INCENTIVE PROGRAMS
BEFORE US TODAY THE CARL MOYER
PROGRAM YOUR QUALITY
IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM. ENHANCE
THE MODERNIZATION PROGRAM. SO
THE PROBLEM WHERE PROGRAM WAS
ESTABLISHED IN NINETEEN NINETY
EIGHT TO HELP LOCAL AIR
DISTRICTS ACHIEVE COST
EFFECTIVE EMISSION REDUCTIONS
NEEDED TO MEET OUR HEALTH
PROTECTIVE FEDERAL AIR QUALITY
STANDARDS. IT PROVIDES
INCENTIVES FOR THE PURCHASE OF
CLEAR TECHNOLOGIES. A CRITICAL
UNDERPINNING OF THE PROGRAM IS
THAT IT TOOK CELEBRATES THE
TURNOVER OF OLDER EQUIPMENT AND
VEHICLES DELIVERING MUCH NEEDED
COMMUNITY HEALTH AND AIR
QUALITY BENEFITS. AND IS THERE
A MOTION TECHNOLOGIES REACH
MARKET SCALE. THE GIRL WHERE
PROGRAM WILL PLAY AN INCREASING
ROLE IN TRANSITIONING THE FLEET
FROM COMBUSTION TO ZERO
MISSION. AND IN FACT RECENTLY
KARMANAU STREAMLINED
PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR
SMALLER FLEETS PURCHASING ZERO
EMISSION TRUCKS. THE OVERALL
THIS PROGRAM REALLY CULTIVATES
A STRONG PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN
CARBON THE LOCAL AIR DISTRICTS
BY BRINGING THE STATE LEVEL
RESOURCES TO BEAR AND UNIQUE
LOCAL. AND REGIONAL AIR QUALITY
SOLUTIONS. AIR QUALITY
IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM IS AN
INCIDENT PROGRAM ORIGINALLY
ESTABLISHED AB ONE EIGHTEEN
WITH THE PURPOSE OF HELPING TO
REDUCE CRITERIA POLLUTANT TOXIC
IN GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION
REDUCTIONS. IT HAS AN ANNUAL
BUDGET OF ABOUT THIRTY FIVE TO.
TWENTY FIVE TO THIRTY MILLION
DOLLARS AND HISTORICALLY
EQUIPMENT SERVED AS A BLUEPRINT
FOR CLEAN VEHICLES EQUIPMENT
INVESTMENTS SUCH AS THE CLEAN
VEHICLE REBATE PROJECT. AND THE
HYBRID AND ZERO EMISSION TRUCK
AND BUS FUNCTION CENTER PROJECT
OR EACH OTHER. THIS YEAR THE
CARDBOARD ALLOCATED A QUICK
FUNDING TO SUPPORT. PURCHASE
VOUCHERS FOR CLEAN AND ZERO
EMISSION TRUCKS AND BUSES TO
REACH THAT AND PROVIDED FUNDING
FOR CLEAN CARS FOR ALL. THIS IS
A PROGRAM AUTHORIZED UNDER
EIGHTY SIX THIRTY WHICH
PROVIDES INCENTIVES TO LOW
INCOME INDIVIDUALS FOR THE
PURCHASE OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES.
THEY HAVE MODERNIZATION PROGRAM
OR IF HE WAS ALSO AUTHORIZED AB
ONE EIGHTEEN AND HAS AN ANNUAL
BUDGET OF ABOUT THREE MILLION
DOLLARS PER YEAR. THE PROGRAM
ITSELF HAS TWO MAIN COMPONENTS
AS GRAPPLING ELEMENT FOR LOW
INCOME VEHICLE OWNERS AND THIS
IS IMPLEMENTED THROUGH A
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE BUREAU OF
AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR. AND IT ALSO
HAS A SCRAPYARD PLACE ON MEANT
WHEN BY LOCAL AIR DISTRICTS IN
PARTNERSHIP WITH CARP. WHICH
HELPS LOW INCOME VEHICLE OWNERS
NOT ONLY SCRAP OLDER HIGHER
POLLUTING VEHICLES BUT ALSO
REPLACE THOSE WITH CLEAR
ALTERNATIVES INCLUDING ZERO
MISSION VEHICLES. SO WITH THAT
I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. AND
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
YOU MIGHT HAVE. BEFORE RIPPING
GOING TO HAVE. THE AIRPORT
ANYBODYELSE FROM THE A- THE
ENERGY DEPARTMENT. FOR GOBIZ.
TRINITY CHRISTIAN NOW OKAY I
GUESS WHAT WHAT WHAT WE HAVE
THE AIRPORT ON HERE YOU KNOW
THIS IS SAY THIS IS LBJ ONCE
SAID EXECUTIVE ORDERS ARE JUST
PAPER THEY'RE NOT LEGISLATION
RIGHT SO NOW WE'RE MOVING INTO
THE LEGISLATURE FEEL JUST GIVE
THAT IS BACKGROUND- MY QUESTION
IS ON WITH THE AIRPORT IS THAT
YOU KNOW WE'VE GOT THIS MIX WE
GOT A BILLION DOLLARS THAT YOU
WANT TO DO EXTENSION OF AB
EIGHT AND SECURITIZED THOSE AND
THEN. FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY FIVE
FOR CAP AND TRADE IN STAFF
REPORT. FULL ON SEPT THIRTY HI
CALIFORNIA REBATE PROGRAM WHICH
FOR SIX YEARS HAS BEEN
OVERSUBSCRIBED WAS NOT
OVERSUBSCRIBED LAST YEAR AND
OBVIOUSLY WE KNOW SOME THINGS
ABOUT THE PANDEMIC BUT BY THE
END OF THE FISCAL YEAR IS GOING
TO BE. DOWN THE ZERO. AND THEN
THERE'S NO MONEY IN THIS.
PROPOSAL TO MEET THE GOVERNOR'S
ORDER I GUESS JERRY BROWN'S
ORDER TO GET TO ONE POINT FIVE
EXAMS. BY TWENTY TWENTY FIVE.
SO IT APPEARS AT LEAST FROM
THIS MEMBER THAT. AIRBOARD IS
PULLING THE PLUG ON AN OVERLY
SUBSCRIBE PROGRAM TO PUT MONEY
INTO THE A HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION FOR THE CLEAN CARS FOR
ALL ALL WHICH HASN'T BEEN
OVERSUBSCRIBED. EVER WHY. SO I
CAN START AND THEN PERHAPS ALL
DEFERRED IDEA OF COLLEAGUES SO
I WOULD SAY THAT THERE IS A
NUMBER OF OPPORTUNITIES HERE IN
THIS PROPOSAL BEFORE YOU
THERE'S A NUMBER OF PROGRAMS
HERE THAT DO SUPPORT ZERO
EMISSION VEHICLES AND THE REAL
VALUE THERE IS THAT THAT THAT
HEALTH AND AIR QUALITY
CHALLENGES THAT WE ARE UP
AGAINST YOU KNOW WE'RE LOOKING
AT A TRANSFORMATION OF THE SIZE
AND SCALE AND SCOPE OF WHICH-
IS REALLY CRITICAL FOR US TO
MEET OUR GOALS- AND SO OVER THE
HISTORY AND PURPOSE OF MANY OF
THESE PROGRAMS THEY HAVE GONE
TO SUPPORT ZERO EMISSION
VEHICLES SO FIFTY PERCENT. OF A
GROUP INVESTMENTS HAVE GONE TO
SUPPORT ELECTRIFICATION
HONORABLY SERVED AS A
FOUNDATION FOR PASSENGER AND
HEAVY DUTY SERVICE REBATE
PROGRAM. AND IF MPS COVERED
SPOKE. 81% OF THOSE FUNDS OF
GONE TOWARD ELECTRIC VEHICLES
IN ZERO EMISSION VEHICLES AND
EQUIPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE.
HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL
CONTINUE TO BE ELIGIBLE UNDER
THE KOLLMEYER PROGRAM. BUT I
THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO
HIGHLIGHT HERE. THAT THE AIR
QUALITY- RAMIFICATIONS TO
COMMUNITIES ARE ARE REAL AND SO
THAT THEY THE FEET PROPOSAL IN
FRONT OF YOU IS TO EXTEND THOSE
FEES THAT ARE PUT ON POLLUTING
VEHICLES. IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT
TO EMPHASIZE SINCE YOU'RE
ASKING FOR FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY
FIVE MILLION FROM OUR CLIMATE
PROGRAM WHICH IS DESIGNED TO
REDUCE TO DO SERIOUS TO
DECARBONISATION. THAT IF WE DO
SPEND. MONEY ON ON THE VALUABLE
PROGRAMS WE'RE NOT SPENDING
MONEY ON DECARBONISATION. AND
IF THE IF THE GOAL IS TO GET TO
POLLUTING CARS OFF THE ROAD. I
KNOW THAT WE NEED TO HELP
PEOPLE AND DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES THAT'S NOT THAT'S
THAT'S NOT THE POINT. BUT EVEN
WE DON'T CARE AT LEAST FROM A
CARBON POINT OF VIEW AS WORLD
LEADERS. WE DON'T CARE IF IT'S
A RICH PERSON A POOR PERSON.
PERFECT PERSON SUBURBS ANYWHERE
WE WANT TO GET THOSE VEHICLES
OUT. AND WE AND WE HAVE. SEVEN
HUNDRED THOUSAND VEHICLES ARE
ELECTRIC VEHICLES NOW. ANY
APPEARS THAT YOU'RE SAYING.
DONE WITH MOST SUCCESS PROGRAMS
THAT WE HAVE. IT WITHOUT ANY
JUSTIFICATION OTHER THAN ONE
LINE IN THE BUDGET THAT SAYS
WE'RE GOING TO. THINK ABOUT IT
SO NOW WE HAVE YOU IN FRONT OF
US WITH MISTER COREY. IS THERE
TO SAY WAIT A MINUTE THIS IS
THIS IS GREAT THAT THE ENERGY
DEPARTMENT AND GOBIZ IN THE
GOVERNOR GOT TOGETHER AND YOU
GUYS COME UP WITH THIS PROGRAM
THAT WE WANT TO EARLY ACTION.
BUT WE'RE THE LEGISLATURE AND
IS GRANTED YOU GUYS WERE
TALKING BUT NOBODY WAS TALKING
WITH US. ABOUT THE PROGRAMS AND
ALSO IT APPEARS THAT NOBODY'S
PAYING ATTENTION. TO THE- THE
BUDGET RECOMMENDATIONS AT THIS
COMMITTEE AND THE SENATE HAVE
MADE FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS
I'M WHAT PROGRAMS WE THINK ARE
GOOD. ON DECARBONISATION AND
AIR AIR POLLUTION SO- YES THIS
IS IN THE EARLY STAGES. WE HAVE
THE L. A. L. LET'S GO WITH THE
DAILY- YOU HAVE SOME COMMENTS
ON.THIS THE PROPOSAL. THANK
YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN MEMBERS
ROSS BROWN OF THE LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE- I WILL-
APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE YOU MIGHT
REMEMBER. LAST WEEK'S HEARING
THERE WAS A LEAF BLOWER RIGHT
OUTSIDE MY WINDOW THERE'S NOT
ONE RIGHT OUTSIDE MY WINDOW
RIGHT NOW BUT THERE IS-
SOMEBODY ACROSS THE STREET SO I
APOLOGIZE IF YOU. HEAR ANY
BACKGROUND NOISE- SO I DO WANT
TO MENTION BEFORE I KIND OF
OFFER SOME OF OUR COMMENTS ON
THE ADMINISTRATION'S OF.
RELATED IN AB EIGHT PROPOSALS
THAT WE HAVE A COUPLE REPORTS
RELATED TO. THAT AGENDA ITEMS
THAT ARE MOST ARE WEBSITE. ONE
RELATED TO G. G. R. OUT-
EXPENDITURE PACKAGE WHICH WE
DISCUSSED LAST WEEK AND THE
HEARING- BUT THERE'S ANOTHER
ONE RELATED TO THE EIGHTY EIGHT
EXTENSION ENDS- THE
SECURITIZATION PROPOSAL THAT
WAS MENTIONED SO I. JUST WHEN I
LIKE THAT- FOCUS MOST OF MY
COMMENTS ON THE- AB EIGHT
EXTENSION. OF SECURITIZATION
PIECE OF THIS PACKAGE- BECAUSE
WE DO THIN IT'S KIND OF THE
MOST SIGNIFICANT NEW PROPOSAL
THAT RAISES AN IMPORTANT POLICY
QUESTIONS FOR THE LEGISLATURE
TO CONSIDER- AND I THINK KIND
OF OUR OUR INITIAL COMMENT AND
TAKING KIND OF BIG PICTURE
TAKERS WE DO THINK THAT THE
LEGISLATURE SHOULD CONSIDER
THIS PROPOSAL. AND THE BROADER
CONTEXT OF THE STATE'S CLIMATE
AND AIR QUALITY STRATEGIES- SO
THE PROPOSAL WOULD EXTEND FEES
THAT RAISE ABOUT TWO HUNDRED
FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY
FOR A VARIETY OF LONG STANDING
BY MIDDLE PROGRAMS- AS WAS
MENTIONED EARLIER- DAY
PRIMARILY FOCUSED ON REDUCING
TRANSPORTATION EMISSIONS BUT
NOT NECESSARILY ALL ON SAID SO
I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT TO
KEEP IN MIND A LOT OF THESE
PROGRAMS IS STARKLY FOCUSED ON.
LOCAL AIR POLLUTION REDUCTIONS-
WE DID WANT TO FLY THAT YOU
KNOW THESE FEES WERE. MO RECENT
EXTENDED TWENTY FOUR. AND SINCE
THAT POINTS OF ERROR BUT WITH
THE STATE HAS ADOPTED A WIDE
VARIETY OF NEW GOALS. SINCE OUR
LAST EXTENDED RELATED TO-
TWENTY THIRTY GREENHOUSE GAS
TARGETS. AIR QUALITY GOALS THE
GOVERNOR AS AS YOU MENTION AS
ESTABLISHED EXECUTIVE ORDER
RELATED DISASTERS AND THERE'S A
COUPLE EXECUTIVE ORDERS. THE
LEGISLATURE ONE TO KIND OF
EVALUATE WHETHER IT DID. AGREES
WITH THOSE GOALS AND THOSE TIME
LINES- BUT THERE'S ALSO NEW
FUNDING SOURCES OF THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS- AND INCREASES IN
FUNDING SOURCES CAP AND TRADE
FUNDS AS THE CHAIR MENTIONED-
RATEPAYER FUNDING THROUGH I'LL
USE LEGAL SETTLEMENT FUNDING SO
THERE'S A WIDE VARIETY OF
FUNDING SOURCES- THAT. KIND OF
NEED TO BE CONSIDERED IN
CONJUNCTION WITH THIS PACKAGE.
AS WELL AS NEW- NEW OR-
PROPOSED KIND OF REGULATORY
PROGRAMS THE CARS OR CARS THAT
ARE. IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND
SO I THINK IT'S A GOOD
OPPORTUNITY TO RE EXAMINE THE
STATE'S OVERALL STRATEGY FOR
ACHIEVING BOTH CLIMATE AND AIR
QUALITY GOALS. I WANT POLICIES
REGULATIONS VERSUS X.
INCENTIVES FOR EXAMPLE SHOULD
BE USED TO ACHIEVE THOSE GOALS.
AND FRIENDS SENATE FUNDING- I'M
A WALK I WANNA WALK THROUGH
SORT OF A- A FEW KEY QUESTIONS
THAT WE THINK THE LEGISLATURE.
BY ONE THAT- CONSIDER PRIOR TO
ADOPTING THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSAL RELATED TO INCENTIVE
FUNDING- ONE IS WHAT'S THE BEST
SOURCE OF FUNDS FOR INCENTIVE
PROGRAMS SO THE EIGHTY EIGHT
THESE ARE. A FEW DIFFERENT
VEHICLE RELATED FEES WHICH WE
THINK. ARE REASONABLE AND HAVE
A REASONABLE NEXUS TO BE. A
MISSION RUSSIAN ACTIVITIES THAT
WOULD BE FUNDED- BUT THE
LEGISLATURE COULD EXPLORE OTHER
OPTIONS- FOR EXAMPLE- COULD
EXPLORE MODIFYING THE LEVEL OF
THE CITY AND MAYBE. SUCH
HONESTY THAT'S- BASED ON A
POLLUTION FROM A VEHICLE RATHER
THAN JUST SORT OF FLAT. FEE PER
VEHICLE. GOOD CONSIDER TYING
THE LEVEL TO FEED TO INFLATION-
OREGON JUST CAN CONSIDER
ENTIRELY DIFFERENT MAKES OF
FUNDING I MENTIONED. SORT OF
THE WIDE VARIETY OF OTHER
FUNDING SOURCES WE HOW FOR BOTH
YOUR AND SENATE AND FOR FUNDING.
I CONSIDER A MAKES YEAR FOR
EXAMPLE. WE HAVE SOME. OF YOU
KNOW I- ABOUT HI ELECTRICITY IN
THIS IN SOME THE YOU CAN IN A
BAR. LOOK ABOUT SOME OF THE
LEGISLATURE COULD CONSIDER.
SORT OF A DIFFERENT MIX OF
FUNDING FOR- SEVEN FOR
STRUCTURE MAY BE SHIFTING SOME
OF THE COSTS AWAY FROM
ELECTRICITY RATEPAYERS TO. EASE
LIKE ADHD IS OR SOME OTHER TYPE
OF FUNDING SOURCE- THE SECOND
QUESTION WE THINK THAT'S
IMPORTANT FOR THE LEGISLATURE
BE THINKING ABOUT IS WHAT'S THE
NEXT WHAT MAKES THE PROGRAM
SHOULD BE FUNDED- IDEALLY- THE
CONVERSATIONS AROUND THIS WOULD
BE INFORMED BY- AN ANALYSIS OF
WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT. THE COST
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE DIFFERENT
PROGRAMS THAT WE HAVE ON THE
DISTRIBUTION OF THE BENEFITS OF
THOSE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS. ON
MANY OF THE ABA PROGRAMS THAT
WE HAVE NOW DO HAVE ESTIMATES
OF- COST PER TON OF EMISSIONS
REDUCTIONS AND SO THOSE ARE
AVAILABLE AND SO I THINK THAT'S
A- PORTENT STOP UNFORTUNATELY-
THE INFORMATION ISN'T KIND OF
GATHERED AND PRESENTED HASN'T
BEEN PRESENTED TO US IN A WAY
WHERE IT'S EASY TO KIND OF
COMPARE ACROSS ALL THE
DIFFERENT PROGRAMS AND SO.
THAT'S SOMETHING WE'RE GOING TO
CONTINUE TO WORK TO TRY TO
GATHER AND WORK WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION. HOPEFULLY HELP
PRESERVE IT WASN'TINFORMATION
THAT HELPS YOU KIND OF COMPARE
THE COST EFFECTIVENESS TODAY
ACROSS DIFFERENT PROGRAMS
MISTER AND MISS SOMETHING. YOU
BROWN'S ACT. CAN YOU JUST STOP
BY THERE AND WE JUST MAKE THAT
FORMAL REQUEST OF THE- BECAUSE
THIS IS NOT AN EASTER EGG HUNT
HERE IF WE'VE GOT. IF THEY KNOW
THE COST PER TON ON ALL THESE
ABA PROGRAMS AND THEY'RE
LOOKING TO USE THE FEES WHICH
EVERYBODY PAYS TO REGISTER. TO
DO- ZEV CONSTRUCTION IN THE
ALLEY- AND ALL THE MEMBERS OF
THE COMMITTEE AND THE
LEGISLATURE SHOULDN'T BE. YOU
KNOW SHOULD WE SHOULD GET A
PRESENTATION SO WE KNOW BECAUSE
WE'VE- I KNOW THAT THE L. A. O.
HAS INSTRUCTED THE LEGISLATURE
TO TRY TO GET THE BIGGEST BANG
FOR THE BUCK ON THE MONEY THAT
WE'RE SPENDING. SO IF WE
SECURITIZE. FUNDS AND WE-ALREADY HAVE FUNDS GOING FOR
PROGRAMS THAT REDUCE. CARBON
AND POLLUTION WHY WOULD WE WANT
TO DEFER TO A DIFFERENT AT
LEAST AT LEAST LET US KNOW THAT
WE'RE MINDFUL BUT- IF. I CAN
GET THE ENERGY DEPARTMENT AND
THE AIRPORT TO GIVE US THAT.
THAT THAT THAT WOULD BE GREAT
PLEASE PROCEED. OKAY YES WE
WERE HAPPY TO KIND OF SUPPORT-YOU IN YOUR STUFF AND THEN
TRYING TO GATHER THAT
INFORMATION. I'M WORKING WITH
THE ADMINISTRATION- ABSENT KIND
OF THAT NOT MORE CONCRETE
INFORMATION THERE ARE. A
VARIETY OF FACTORS TO KIND OF
THINK ABOUT CONSIDER. ONE KIND
OF HOW IT HOW TO ALLOCATE
FUNDING ACROSS PROGRAMS YOU
KNOW A COUPLE OF THEM FOR
EXAMPLE ARE KIND OF HOW TO
EMPHASIZE LIGHT DUTY VERSUS
HEAVY DUTY- THEY'RE KIND OF
DIFFERENT- PERCENTAGES. OF
OVERALL EMISSIONS AND
GREENHOUSE GASES VERSUS AIR
QUALITY THERE SORT OF A
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIKE GETTING
UPDATED VEHICLES- BALANCE IN
CERTAIN NEAR TERM- GOALS VERSUS
LONG TERM GOALS AND PART OF
THAT GETS INTO. UNLESS YOU WANT
TO FOCUS ON KIND OF LONG TERM
DEBT REDUCTION GOALS- AND THEN-
THE ONE THAT- THE OTHER SORT
OF. I THINK YOU CONSIDERATION
THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN TOUCHED
ON IS THIS ISSUE OF HOW MUCH TO
FOCUS ON. THAT INFRASTRUCTURE
VERSES VEHICLE INCENTIVES AND
YOU KNOW THE STATE HAS PROGRAMS
THAT FOCUS ON BOTH- THE- BUDGET
PROPOSAL THIS YEAR AS HAS BEEN
MENTIONED ALREADY DOESN'T
INCLUDE ANY NEW FUNDING FOR CVR
PIECE OTHERS- THERE'S MORE OF
AN EMPHASIS ON CONCEPT
INFRASTRUCTURE AT LEAST AS PART
OF THE BUDGET PROPOSAL THIS
YEAR. OUR VIEW IS IN GENERAL WE
THINK FOCUSING ON BOTH.
INFRASTRUCTURE AS WELL AS
VEHICLE INCENTIVES MAKES. SENSE
AND THERE'S WE THINK THERE'S
SOME RESEARCH TO SUPPORT KIND
OF- POLICIES FOCUSING ON BOTH.
OUT WE DO THINK IF FUNDS ARE
LIMITED THAT YOU KNOW THAT THEY
HAVE AVAILABLE EVIDENCE DOES
SUGGEST THAT IF YOU'RE GOING TO
PUSH HARD ON ONE THAT.
INFRASTRUCTURE MIGHT BE A
HIGHER RIORITY THAN VEHICLES
BUT- NO REASON YOU KNOW THAT.
THE RESURGENT SORT OF ENTIRELY
CONCLUSIVE IN THIS AREA AND I
THINK REASONABLE PEOPLE CAN
DISAGREE BUT WE DO THINK OF A
FOCUS ON INFRASTRUCTURE DOES
HAVE A LOT OF MERIT AND
SOPHIA'S. IN MINISTRATIONS SORT
OF- PROPOSAL FOCUS ON
INFRASTRUCTURE HAS. HAS SOME
MERIT. FINALLY. I'M ON THE
ACCELERATE PLEASE- THE SEVEN
FOR SURE FROM. REALLY SORT OF.
WE VIEW IT AS AN EX. OF FUNDING.
IT WOULD BE A IN FUTURE YEAR
AND SO- INSTEAD SORT OF- HAVE
ANNUAL FUND AVAIL FOR SO FOR
SURE. OVER THE COUPLE OF
DECADES. YOU KNOW A BOND WOULD
BE ISSUED UP TO A ONE BILLION
DOLLAR BONDS- TO ACCELERATE
THAT MONEY FORWARD AND HAVE
THAT AVAILABLE IN THE NEXT FEW
YEARS- AND AS A RESULT THE
STATE WOULD BE PAYING DEBT
SERVICE. OF UP TO. ABOUT SIXTY
SIX MILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY
OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DECADES
AND SO. ARE WE ARE NOT NOT NOT
AS MUCH AS SORT OF AN INCREASE
AS AS MUCH AS THAT KIND OF
SHIFT- AN ACCELERATION OF THE
FUNDING FORWARD- WE AND WE
THINK THERE IS SOME MERIT- KIND
OF THAT. APPROACH THERE IS AN
IDENTIFIED. GAP IN FUNDING OVER
THE NEXT FEW YEARS I WOULD
THINK THE FUNDING SOURCE
REVENUE SOURCE OF RELATIVELY
STABLE SO IT'S A REASONABLE
SOURCE TO USE- TO ISSUE BONDS.
TRADE OFF WAITING FOR THE
LEGISLATURE IS JUST TO- ON
BALANCE THE ABOUT SHORT TERM
INCREASE IN FUNDING WEST OUT
LONG TERM DECREASE IN FUNDING
AS THE STATE HAS TO MAKE THOSE
DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS. IN
FUTURE YEARS- AND YOU KNOW
WHETHER THE SORT OF SHORT TERM
MARKET DEVELOPMENT BENEFITS
OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS OR WERE
SORT OF LESS FUNDING AVAILABLE
IN FUTURE YEARS AND SO THE
COMMITTEE WANT MY ONCE A-
EXPLORE OF THE ADMINISTRATION
DURING THE HEARING ABOUT WHAT
THEIR EXPECTATIONS ARE ABOUT
LONG TERM FUNDING NEEDS BECAUSE
UNDER THIS PROPOSAL- A LOT OF
THAT. A LARGE CHUNK OF THE
FUNDING ON ENERGY COMMISSION
COULD BE- NEEDED TO PAY DEBT
SERVICE PAYMENTS IN FUTURE
YEARS OF ONE BE AVAILABLE FOR
PROJECT. RIGHT NOW I WILL. TRY
TO IN MY- THERE I DO WANT TO WE
HAVE A OF OTHER RECOMMEND.
RELATED TO ASK THE LEGISLATURE
DOES WANT TO ADOPT THE
ADMINISTRATION'S SECURITIZATION
PROPOSAL FROM OPTIONS FOR.
REDUCING THE INITIAL BOND
AUTHORIZATION AND LIMITING THE
CONTINUOUS APPROPRIATIONS JUST
A HEALTH INSURER. BUT THERE IS
ONGOING LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT
AUTHORITY. OVER SOME OF THESE
FUNDS ARE HAPPY TO KIND OF
THOSE- THOSE KIND OF DETAILED.
BUT ALL MY COMMENTS THERE ARE
NONE TO ANSWER ANY. BUT COULD
YOU GIVE A LITTLE INSIGHT I.
I'VE THE COMMITTEE THREE OR
SEVEN IS RE. FOR AT ALL THE AND
MONEY HAS BEEN EXHAUSTED
ANNOUNCED CHARGING STATIONS
WHICH IS GOOD NEWS. BUT WE
STILL HAVE A SENSE OF. FUNDS
THAT ARE IN THE QUEUE FROM THE
VOLKSWAGEN SETTLEMENT FROM THE
BMW CHRYSLER SETTLEMENT WITH
THE AYE YOU'LL USE YOUR
BUILDING. AND WHAT THE PRIVATE
SECTOR IS DOING WHAT'S YOUR
SENSE OF. WHAT'S HAPPENING
RIGHT NOW ON THE NATURAL THAT
THAT IT'S GOING TO BE DONE- ON
THE CONSTRUCTION OF- OF FIVE
STEPS BECAUSE WE'VE GOT THIS.
LONG TERM SHORT TERM- A BED AND
SET THAT MONEY HAS. TO BE SPENT
RIGHT WE HAVE THE- BORDERS.
NEGOTIATED A GREAT DEAL WITH
SOFTWARE. YEAH THERE YOU'RE
RIGHT THAT THERE ARE NONE OF
ALL THESE OTHER SORT OF
ACTIVITIES THAT ARE GOING ON-
AS MISS MONAGHAN MET
COMMISSIONER MONAGHAN MENTIONED
I THINK THERE'S- THE KIND OF
PROPOSAL BEFORE YOU DOES KIND
OF INCORPORATE WHAT
EXPECTATIONS ARE ABOUT HOW
MANY- CHARGING STATIONS- AND
PORTS WILL BE SORT OF
CONSTRUCTED WITH THOSE FUNDS OR
THE FUNDING KIND OF UNDER THIS
PROPOSAL WOULD BE USED TO KIND
OF IDENTIFY THE GAPS. BETWEEN
WHAT WHAT WOULD BE PROVIDED
WITH THOSE FUNDS AND WHAT'S
NEEDED TO MEET THE GOALS OF THE
GOVERNOR IS LAID OUT IN TERMS
OF INFRASTRUCTURE I MEAN I
THINK I THERE ARE SORT OF VERY
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ABOUT- IN
THE LONG TERM WHAT IS THE
STATE'S. ROLLING KIND OF HOW
MUCH STATE SUPPORT WILL BE
NEEDED FOR INFRASTRUCTURE I
THINK THERE IS KIND OF AN
EXPECTATION THAT AS THE MARKET
DEVELOPS THEN IT MIGHT BE LESS
OF A NEED FOR STATE SUPPORT AT
THE PRIVATE MARKET WILL TAKE
OVER A LARGE CHUNK OF IT- BUT I
THINK OF IT AS IT KIND OF COMES
TO THINKING ABOUT WHAT LONG
TERM FUNDING NEEDS MIGHT BE
THERE ARE STILL ARE SOME OTHER.
A BIG PIECES THAT IT'S STILL
UNCLEAR- EXACTLY HOW MUCH STATE
SUPPORT AND I THINK THERE'S A
PRETTY STRONG ARGUMENT TO SOME
STATE SUPPORT MIGHT BE NEEDED
FOR EXAMPLE FOR MULTI FAMILY-
HOUSING- YOU KNOW THAT THAT
KIND OF YOU KNOW PRIVATE
MARKETABILITY OF THE KIND OF
THE PRIVATE MARKET TO PROVIDE
THAT WE THINK THERE ARE SOME
KIND OF SIGNIFICANT QUESTIONS
AND SO THERE MIGHT BE A KIND OF
A CONTINUED STATE ROLE FOR
THAT. ARE HEAVY DUTY AND FOR
STRUCTURE IS KIND OF A GROWING
EASTON VERY EXPENSIVE I KNOW
THE ENERGY COMMISSION HAS SOME
SOME ESTIMATES ON KIND OF WHAT
THE NEEDS MIGHT BE THERE SO-
YEAH THAT THERE'S A LOT GOING
ON BUT I THINK THERE'S JUST
GIVEN SORT OF THE NATURE OF THE
LEAST SOME OF THE GOALS OF THE
GOVERNOR HAS ESTABLISHED
THERE'S- YOU KNOW A LOT MORE
AND IT NEEDS TO BE DONE OVER
THE NEXT FEW YEARS. YEAH IT
JUST WOULDN'T. I DON'T WANT TO
SOUND LIKE A- RECORD ABOUT TWO.
TO BEEF UP THE- AND TRADE
PROGRAMS THAT A PERFORMANCE
BETTER. AND CREATES MORE
REVENUE AND IF WE'RE TALKING.
YOU KNOW AT THE END GAME IS TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
PER YEAR. THAT'S NOT THAT MUCH
BEEFING UP THAT THAT NEEDS TO
BE DONE. THAT THIS IS A TWO
THIRDS VOTE IT'S A IT'S A-
SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN. HOW THE
FUNDING GOES FROM. THE PROGRAMS
FOR REGISTRATION FEE SO IT'S-
A- I THE HOPE THAT WE ALL LOOK
AT ALL THE TOOLS IN THE TOOLBOX
OF FEAR. IF WE'RE GOING TO TAKE
THIS- THIS STEP BECAUSE- YES.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO GET CHARGING
STATIONS AT. AT APARTMENT
COMPLEXES IT'S EQUALLY AS
IMPORTANT TO GET THOSE
APARTMENT APARTMENT COMPLEXES
ENERGY EFFICIENT BECAUSE THEY
MAY BE. ARE SPROUTING UP MORE
POLLUTION AND MORE GREENHOUSE
GASES THAN THE DELTA IS SO
THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS BE DONE
THIS IS JUST ONE OF THINGS
SENATOR STERN. YOUR QUESTION
YES THANKS MISCARRIAGE WANT TO
FOLLOW UP ON YOUR- INQUIRY AND
I GUESS CAN WE DRILL DOWN A
LITTLE FURTHER THAN. WHAT
WHAT'S THAT NEEDS ASSESSMENT
LOOK LIKE RIGHT NOW FROM THE
ADMINISTRATION'S PERSPECTIVE.
ON THE SORT OF. TO REACH THE
GOALS THE GOVERNOR'S LAID OUT.
WHAT WHAT'S THE SORT OF ALL IN
NEED FOR INFRASTRUCTURE AND HOW
FAR WILL THIS PROPOSAL GET US
THERE. THANK YOU FOR THE
QUESTION- STERN. SO OUR
ANALYSIS- SPUR OF THE CHAPTER
BOARD THAT FOR AB TWENTY ONE
TWENTY SEVEN WHICH REQUIRES US
ON A BIANNUAL BASIS TO LOOK AT-
THAT WHETHER WE'RE MEETING OUR
GOALS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE AND
WHAT WHAT WE FOUND IS THAT FOR
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE WE ARE SIXTY
THOUSAND CHARGERS SHORT OF OUR
GOAL AND WE'RE TWENTY ONE
HYDROGEN STATIONS SHORT OF OUR
GOAL OF- TWO HUNDRED STATIONS.
SO THERE IS A GAP AND THAT
ANNOUNCER STRUCTURE ACCOUNT.
ALL THE INFORMATION THAT WE
COULD COLLECT IN TERMS OF-
INVESTMENTS BY UTILITIES AND BY
ELECTRIFY AMERICA OTHER
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS- AND WE
STILL HAVE THAT DELTA. SO WHAT
WE WOULD USE OUR- BONTA SPORTY
DO THE FIRST FIVE HUNDRED
BILLION IS TO FILL THAT GAP WE
WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
CALIFORNIA IS ON TRACK TO MEET
OUR SHORT TERM TWENTY TWENTY
FIVE GOAL WITH THE RIGHT AMOUNT
OF THAT INFRASTRUCTURE. AND OUR
OUR ASSESSMENT IS THAT I MEAN
AT THIS POINT INFRASTRUCTURE IS.
ARGUABLY THE BIGGEST BARRIER I
MEAN I THINK THAT- RIGHT THE
BATTERIES IN PARTICULAR HAS
FALLEN BY 90% OVER THE LAST
DECADE. MANY ARTICLES ARE ON
TRACK TO BE CHEAPER ON A COST
BASIS AND THEIR INTERNAL
COMBUSTION COUNTERPARTS OVER
THE NEXT TWO TO FIVE YEARS. AND
SO NOW- THE BARRIER IS WILL I
LIVE IN APARTMENT BUILDING I
DON'T HAVE A PLACE TO CHARGE MY
VEHICLE I'M NOT GOING TO GET AS
THEIR MISSION YES- I WOULD
ARGUE- AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT. NO MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE
YOU CAN HAVE ACCESS TO THEIR
MACHINE VEHICLE. AND PART OF
THE INCENTIVE FOR THIS HONESTLY
IS THAT THESE VEHICLES ON A
LIFE CYCLE BASIS FOR CHEAPER
SO. CONSUMER EPORTS FOUND THAT
THESE VEHICLES ARE SAFE
CONSUMERS- ELEVEN HUNDRED TO
SEVENTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS PER
YEAR ON REDUCE YOUR MAINTENANCE.
COSTS SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT. EVERYBODY CAN BENEFIT
FROM THAT JUST PEOPLE WHO LIVE
IN SINGLE FAMILY HOME BUT
EVERYTHING. IN IN SEARCH JUST
FOLLOWING UP ON THAT POINT I
MEAN WE TALKED ABOUT THE
CLIMATE CATALYST. A LITTLE
EARLIER AND SORT OF LEVERAGING
IN FINANCE SO IF YOU WENT WITH
THE STREET SORT OF CASH
APPROACH. VERSES THIS.
FINANCING APPROACHES BEEN POSED
HERE HOW HOW LIKE HOW MUCH
FURTHER CAN WE GET THROUGH
LEVERAGE LIKE DO YOU ANTICIPATE
FOLLOW ON PRIVATE CAPITAL SAID
THAT THIS IS AN ENTIRELY.
PUBLICLY FINANCED HERE. YES OUR
VISION IS THAT OVER TIME WE
WILL REDUCE THE LEVEL OF PUBLIC
FUNDING PER CHARGER HARPER
HYDROGEN STATION AND WE'VE SEEN
THAT ACTUALLY PLAY OUT. ON IT
WELL YOU KNOW OUR OUR GOAL IS
LIKE LET'S MAKE SURE THAT WE
CAN MEET OUR TWENTY TWENTY FIVE
GOLD LOOKS SET A COURSE FOR
TWENTY. THIRTY AND- LET'S
WITHDRAW THE AMOUNT OF PUBLIC
INVESTMENT. RATCHETED DOWN OVER
TIME SO WITH THE STEADY
DECREASE AND THE MARKET SEES
THAT BOTH THE CALIFORNIA IS
INVESTING AND THAT WE ARE WE
ARE EXPECTING THE PRIVATE
MARKET TO TAKE OVER I MEAN THIS
IS NOT IN PERPETUITY THIS IS A
SHORT TERM INFUSION OF CASH
MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE ON COURSE
TO MEET OUR GOALS. AND TO AND%
TO GET MORE PRIVATE CAPITAL
FLOWING INTO THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. THE LAST QUESTION
THANKS FOR THE TIME MISTER
CHAIR- SO. JUSTICE CENTER
DOLLIES POINT EARLIER WHEN
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CLIMATE
CATALYST UNCERTAINTIES POLICY
EXTERNALITIES THAT MAY LIMIT
YOU KNOW YOU GOT MONEY BUT
THERE'S OTHER BARRIERS IN THE
WAY TOO AND I YOU TALKED ABOUT
YOUR YOUR PLANNING PROCESS AND
SOME OF THE GOALS YOU'VE SET
OUT ON SAY SIXTY THOUSAND A
YEAR OR TRYING TO HIT THAT TWO
HUNDRED HYDROGEN A YEAR- I
DON'T KNOW. IF IT'S IT C. E. C.
OR IF IT'S IF THIS IS MORE OF
LIKE A GO BUSINESS QUESTION.
BUT THE CENTRAL PLANNING
FUNCTION AND SORT OF
STREAMLINING THE
INFRASTRUCTURE. IT SEEMS LIKE.
AN ISSUE RIGHT NOW LIKE ACTUAL
THE ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION
TIMELINE FOR GETTING. THESE
DIFFERENT STATIONS ARE CHARGING
OPERATIONS BUILT. HITS ALL
KINDS OF IMPEDIMENTS NOT
UNIFORM. LOCAL MUNICIPAL CODES-
YOU KNOW DIFFERENT INFORMATION
ABOUT WHAT FIRE MARSHAL NEEDS
ARE- UNDERGROUNDING ISSUES SO
IS THERE IS THERE SORT OF.
COROLLARY EFFORT THAT MATCHES
WITH THIS FINANCING PROPOSAL TO
LOOK AT WHAT THE POLICY
BARRIERS ARE AND TRY TO HAVE
SOME LEADERSHIP AT THE
GOVERNOR'S LEVEL TO LIKE. TO
REALLY DRIVE THIS FORWARD. I'M
NOT SURE IF THEY CAN I CAN
SPEAK ON BEHALF OF COPAYS YEAH
AT LEAST IT ASSEMBLY NOT OKAY
SO GOOD OKAY. YEAH DEVELOP AND
THAT STRATEGY THEY HAVE
DEVELOPED A STRATEGY- IN
CONSULTATION WITH STAKEHOLDERS.
AND WITH AGENCIES. THERE ARE
BARRIERS YOU POINT OUT AT THE
LOCAL LEVEL THERE'S JUST.
STREAMLINING THAT NEEDS TO
HAPPEN SO THAT THAT THE-
PROJECT CAN HAPPEN MORE
QUICKLY. AND TO GO BEEN HAS A
PERMANENT OLYMPICS WHERE
THEY'RE REALLY TRYING TO CREATE
YOU KNOW IT IT JUST SPREAD THE
KNOWLEDGE TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
THAT THIS ISN'T A PAIR THAT
NEED TO BE OVERCOME. AND YOU
KNOW THIS. CHANGE THAT WE ARE-
WE'RE SPEAKING IT'S GOING TO
TAKE ACTION AT THE LOCAL LEVEL.
AT THE STATE LEVEL AT THE
FEDERAL LEVEL. AND THERE ARE
BARRIERS ALONG THE WAY IT
MIGHT. MY SENSE IS THAT THESE
BARRIERS ARE ALL SURMOUNTABLE-
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF. WORKING
TOGETHER AND SO GOBIZ IS REALLY
THE POINT FOR THAT. THAT
STRATEGY ON THE INFRASTRUCTURE
SIDE THE CDC IS REALLY THE
POINT FOR THAT AND THAT'S
BECAUSE THE LEGISLATURE YOU
HAVE GIVEN US THAT AUTHORITY.
BUT I WANT TO SAY THE RECORDS
THAT WE HAVE TO DO THAT AB
TWENTY ONE TWENTY SEVEN ON
WHETHER WE'RE ATTRACTED MEET
OUR GOALS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE.
AND THAT THE ALBUM REPORT THAT
REQUIRES US TO LOOK AT EQUITY
IMPLICATIONS OF OUR CHARTER
DISTRIBUTION. THE OTHER
CRITICAL ANALYSIS THAT WE ARE
USING TO INFORM AND TAYLOR ARE
INVESTMENTS. AND I MEAN I THINK
IT IN TERMS OF HOLDING US
ACCOUNTABLE YOU HAVE GIVEN US
TOOLS. TO TO HOLD OUR
INVESTMENT ACCOUNTABLE TO
WHETHER WE ARE MEETING OUR
GOALS AND WHETHER WE'RE GETTING.
JUST AND EQUITABLE WAY. IT'S
ZERO POINT YOU'RE NOT ON TRACK
TO MEET THOSE GOALS THAT WE'VE
ASKED YOU TO MEET. AND THIS IS
THE STOP GAP. THE FIRST FIVE
HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS WOULD
BE USED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE
NEED OUR TWENTY TWENTY FIVE
GOALS. AND THE SECOND FIVE
HUNDRED MILLION WILL BE SENT TO
SET US ON COURSE FOR TWENTY
THIRTY. BUT I EXPECT HIM INSIDE
ENOUGH THAT OUR GOAL IS YOU
KNOW HOW EVENTUALLY WANT TO GET
RID OF THE PUBLIC WE DON'T WANT
PUBLIC DOLLARS GOING TO THE-
MARKET TO TAKE OVER. AND BUT
THE MARKET ISN'T. DRIVING IT
BECAUSE THERE JUST AREN'T
ENOUGH ELECTRIC VEHICLES OUT
THERE. THE WINNER IS- ANOTHER
SELECTIVE VEHICLE YOU KNOW
ENOUGH ABOUT STOCKTON ELECTRIC
VEHICLE. CHARGING PROVIDERS
WILL MAKE MONEY AND WE DON'T
WANT TO KEEP FUNDING THEM.
THERE MAY ALWAYS BE A ROLE I
THINK FOR SOME PUBLIC
INVESTMENTS TO MAKE SURE THAT
OUR- ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE SO
PUBLIC ENEMY DRAWINGS AND LOW
INCOME DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES NORTHERN
COMMUNITIES FOR ALL COMMUNITIES
LIKE THERE'S- THERE ARE PLACES
WHERE. WE MAY NEED TO INVEST
FOR A LONGER PERIOD. SO THE
FOLLOW UP ON THAT IS IT THE
SHOULD. COMMITTEE OTHER. THAT
BUILT THE OLD CLICHE WE'RE
GOING TO AT THE LOW HANGING.
THAT'S OUT THERE SO IF YOU GO
TO CITY. PICKLE RIVERA AND THEY
SAY WE GOT. ONE TWO THREE FOUR
FIVE NINETY NINE NINETY EIGHT
LOCAL CONDITIONS THAT YOU HAVE
TO MEET. YOU SAY SIERRA AND YOU
GO DOWN TO THE NEXT TOWN AND
THEY SAY WE DON'T HAVE ANY
CONDITIONS WE WANT TO WORK
WITH. WITH THE CDC AND GULBIS
TO PUT THIS IN. IF THE GOAL IS
TO TWENTY TWENTY FIVE THAT
WE'RE GOING TO GO TO THE LOO.
THE AREAS THAT ARE. MAKE IT.
INVITING FOR CHARGING STATIONS
AND HYDROGEN STATIONS GO WIN
INSTEAD OF SAYING OH NO WE
WANTED IN. CENTER WILL CAL SKIS
DISTRICT AND WILL SPEND TWELVE
YEARS GOING THROUGH. PERMITTING
AND PLANNING WITH THAT WITH THE
CITY THAT. THAT IS.
UNBELIEVABLE AND WE ARE WE ALL
KNOW. WE ARE CERTAIN LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS SO WE- HAVE AN IDEA
CENTER DOLLY. I REALLY DON'T
HAVE A QUESTION I JUST MORE OF
A COMET- MAYBE FOR THE
LEGISLATORS IN JUST MY OWN
PERSONAL. FEEL GOOD TO SAY YOU
KNOW THE DEFINITION OF INSANITY
IS DOING THE SAME THING. ANNEX
IS NOT CHANGING AND GETTING THE
SAME OUTCOME- BECAUSE WHAT'S
YOUR NUMBER NUMBER ONE THAT
THIS IS ALLOWING THE C. C. TO
SPEND A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS
WITHOUT ANY LEGISLATIVE
OVERSIGHT THE FUTURE THE
SENATOR JUST. THE REASON WHY
COUNTY JUST MENTION SOME OF HIS
FRUSTRATIONS WITH. THE PROGRAMS
AND HOW THEY'RE IMPLEMENTED SO
I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING THAT
WE DEFINITELY SHOULD TAKE A
LOOK AT THAT GIVES US SOME
ABILITY TO COME BACK AND
SCRUTINIZED. HOW THIS MONEY IS
BEING SENT SPENT NUMBER ONE.
NUMBER TWO. WE'D WE- AGAIN A IN
THE IN SOME OF THE COMMENTS WAS
TALKED ABOUT. NO 80% AN AUCTION
95% OF. DIESEL PARTICULATES
COME. BUT WE DON'T EVEN COUNT
AND I'M GO BACK TO THIS I'M
GONNA KEEP AFTER IT UNTIL MAYBE
SUNDAY IT ACTUALLY GETS
QUALIFIED AND I HAVE A
LEGISLATION TO DO THAT THIS
YEAR. WE DON'T COUNT ALL THE
EMISSIONS IN CALIFORNIA. YOU
TALK ABOUT AIR QUALITY WE BURN
FOUR POINT TWO MILLION ACRES
LAST YEAR AND MILLIONS OF ACRES
IN THE YEARS BEFORE. AND WE
DON'T COUNT THOSE IN OUR CARBON
EMISSIONS. SO WHEN I TALK ABOUT
BEING INSANE I KEEP TALKING
ABOUT DO WE HAVE IF WE REALLY
CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AND
WE REALLY CARE ABOUT OUR CARBON
OUTPUT. THEN WE WOULD COUNT ALL
THE CARBON THAT WE PUT OUT. AND
YOU KNOW THE FOREST HAS BEEN
MANIPULATED BY US. THE NATIVE
AMERICANS AND GOD ALMIGHTY WITH
LIGHTNING MANAGED ARE FORCED
BEFORE WE CAME ALONG AND MESSED
IT UP. WE SUPPRESS FIRE FOR THE
LAST ALMOST HUNDRED YEARS. AND
WE HAVE A FORCED IT'S OVER WELL
AND WITH FUEL AND IT'S
CATASTROPHICALLY BERNIE ON TOP
OF. OUR CLIMB IS CHANGING WE
HAVE LATER SNOW MORE RAIN AND
WIND AND DRYER SEASON SO I JUST
WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT.
INTEL WE REALLY TALK ABOUT THE
ENVIRONMENT IN ITS TOTALITY. IN
ANY AND WHEN WE DO WE GO ON
HERE WE'RE GONNA TAX THE TWENTY
THREE YEAR IS EXTENDING A FEE
IN TAX TWENTY THREE YEARS.
WE'RE GONNA FRONT LOAD IT TO
PAY OFF WHAT THE GOAL WAS HALF
A BILLION TO PAY THE GOAL. FOR
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE WHICH WE'VE
ALREADY SET AND NOW UNDER.
RIGHT BECAUSE HE SAID NOBODY
TALKS TO US YOUR BE A
REPUBLICAN AROUND HERE. I MEAN
TALK ABOUT NOBODY TALKING TO
YOU. IS THIS IS THIS IS MY
OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT THE
THINGS I CARE ABOUT THAT I
THINK WE SHOULD ALL CARE ABOUT.
BECAUSE IN THE POLICY
DISCUSSIONS WE DON'T WE GET
LEFT BEHIND AND- THEN IT SEEMS
LIKE WE'RE GONNA FOCUS ON. YOU
KNOW MORE LIKE TWO CARS WE HAVE
AN EXECUTIVE ORDER TO GET YOU
CAN PUT EVERY YOU CAN MAKE
EVERY SINGLE. VEHICLE IN
CALIFORNIA ELECTRIC AND WE CAN
STILL HAVE A CARBON OUTPUT
PROBLEM. BECAUSE WE'RE NOT
COUNTING EVERYTHING SO I JUST
WANNA MAKE THAT VERY CLEAR I
KNOW YOU ALL KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS
HAVE HEARD IT. THE LAST TIME
I'VE BEEN HERE. BUT ON THIS DAY
AFTER DAY UNTIL WE ACTUALLY
QUANTIFY IT AND WE DO IT RIGHT
BECAUSE I DO TRULY CARE. ABOUT
THE ENVIRONMENT. AND IT'S JUST
FRUSTRATING TWO OTHER THINGS I
WANT TO MENTION. NUMBER ONE WE
HAVE NO RECYCLING PLANT FOR ALL
THESE EV'S. N. N. N. SOLAR
PANELS THAT WHEN THERE'S LIFE
IS SPENT WHAT WE GONNA DO WITH
THEM AND THAT AND THAT AND I
RAN A BILL TWO YEARS AGO. THAT
THAT FORCED THE- ADMINISTRATOR
NOT TO MENTION THE DEPARTMENT.
TO COME UP WITH A PLAN FOR
RECYCLING BATTERIES WE DON'T WE
DON'T EVEN KNOW THE HAZARDOUS.
IF ONE OF THESE GOES INTO IT
GETS IN AN ACCIDENT AND GOES
INTO RIVER WHAT THE TOXICITY OF
IT IS THAT OUTPUTS RIGHT THEN
SO I THINK WE NEED TO FOCUS ON.
YOUR BATTERIES RECYCLING AND
WHAT THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
THAT IS BECAUSE OF THOSE AND
THE OTHER THING I THINK WE
SHOULD FOCUS ON. TO IS THE
RECYCLING OF SOLAR PANELS
THERE'S A LOT OF THE SOLAR
PANELS OUT THERE THAT THEIR
LIFESPAN IS COMING UP AND
THERE'S BEEN NO BONDS. NO NO WE
HAVE NO WAY TO GO OUT AND-
QUANTIFY HOW WE'RE GOING TO
THEM THIS IS THIS ISN'T. GOING
TO BE JUST LIKE. MINES WE HAVE
I HAD TO HAVE A SUIT ACIDIC
MINE AN INCH SHASTA COUNTY
THERE'S BEEN PUTTING SULFIDES
INTO. THE RIVER FOR YEARS AND
IT'S A SUPERFUND SITE. WE'RE
GONNA SEE THE SAME THING WITH
SOLAR PANELS RECEIVE THESE
THESE COMPANIES OR AWAY.
BECAUSE THEY TAX CUT. AND
THEY'RE GONNA E THEY'RE GONNA
BE SITTING OUT THERE WE HAVE TO
DO SOME OF THE I JUST WANT TO
MAKE IT. KNOWN TO THE PUBLIC.
AND FOR THE RECORD THESE ARE
THINGS. THAT WE SHOULD BE
TALKING ABOUT AND WE DON'T TALK
ABOUT WE GET FOCUSED ON.
TRANSPORTATION ONLY WHEN
THERE'S OTHER THINGS OUT THAT
ARE CAUSING. CARBON OUTPUTS
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR FOR
INDULGING ME. WORK TO BE DONE
AND WE'RE GOING TO HOLD ISSUE
NUMBER TWO. OKAY OKAY I'M GONNA
HOLD ISSUE NUMBER TWO AND GO ON
THE ISSUE NUMBER THREE WHICH IS
IMPLEMENTATION OF AV AT EIGHT
FOUR ONE I KNOW- DIRECTOR BILL
HAND YOU'RE ON THE LINE WHEN
YOU WITH YOUR PRESENTATION CAN
YOU HAVE BEEN A WE'VE HEARD
THAT THE PRICE IS A
CERTIFICATION ON THIS E. V. E.
I. T. P. PROGRAM IS GONE FROM
LIKE SEVENTY FIVE BUCKS A TWO
HUNDRED SEVENTY FIVE DOLLARS ON
HOW CAN WE ENSURE THAT THAT.
REMAINS ECONOMICAL FOR PEOPLE
IT HAD BEEN ALTERED SMALL
BUSINESSES IN THESE CONTRACTORS

CERTIFICATION AND ALSO IS THERE
ENOUGH TRAINING CAPACITY TO
MEET THESE AMBITIOUS EVEY
CHARGES THANKS SO. WITH THAT
YOU RECOGNIZE. THANK YOU CHAIR
AND- MEMBERS APPRECIATE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TO YOU
THIS MORNING AGAIN GROUP- AND-
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE
CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION
AND WE'RE EXCITED TO BE THE
IMPLEMENTOR OF THE SCHOOL
ENERGY EFFICIENCY STIMULUS
PROGRAM. WHICH WAS ESTABLISHED
BY AB EIGHT FORTY ONE WHAT WHY
DON'T I CHAIR TAKE YOUR YOUR
FIRST QUESTION BEFORE
PROCEEDING WITH THE DISCUSSION.
OF THIS ITEM AND ONE OF THE
THINGS WE'RE SEEKING FROM THE
LEGISLATURE IN THIS REQUEST IS
FUNDING FOUR POINT SIX OF A P.
Y. SO A FRACTION OF AN
INDIVIDUAL STAFF PERSON. TO
LOOK AT THE VERY QUESTION
YOU'RE ASKING ABOUT THIS
PROGRAM THE EVE V. I. T. T.
PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES TRAINING
FOR THE USE BOB- FOR THAT THE
INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WERE YOU
DISPATCH SOMETIME TALKING
ABOUT- BEFORE THIS ITEM SO WHAT
WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT- I CAN
GET BACK TO YOU WITH SPECIFICS
ON WHAT THE COSTS ARE LOOKING
LIKE THAT THIRTY TO SEVENTY
FIVE DOLLARS IS A FIGURE THAT
HAD BEEN USED- THERE WAS
DISCUSSION ABOUT MAKING SURE WE
HAD TRAINING AVAILABLE ONLINE I
BELIEVE IT IS NOW- BUT THIS IS
SOMETHING WE'RE GONNA BE TAKING
A LOOK AT OVER TIME. AND I
WANNA MAKE SURE I GET YOU THE
MOST UP TO DATE INFORMATION
BECAUSE IT IT IT IS A LITTLE
BIT DYNAMIC RIGHT NOW I
APPRECIATE EXACTLY STAFF REPORT
TALK ABOUT WHETHER THE STAFF
REPORT AT LEAST WHAT WE'VE GOT
HAVE IN FRONT OF US IS THAT
THIS POSITION ARE SIX TENTHS OF
A POSITION IS GONNA LOOK AT
SUPPLEMENTS THE PROGRAM VERSES.
ANALYSIS SERVER AND
UNDERSTANDING OF THE PEOPLE FOR
TO DO THAT AND IS THERE ENOUGH
CAPACITY IN A GIVEN GIVEN
WHAT'S IN FRONT OF US ON THE ON
THE PREVIOUS ITEM THANKS THAT'S
RIGHT YES WE WILL WE THAT
YOU'RE RIGHT THE FUNDING IS FOR
AN ONGOING- UP SUPPORT TO LOOK
AT THESE ISSUES BUT WE- NEED
IMMEDIATE ANSWERS TO OTHER
QUESTIONS YOU'RE RAISING SO
WE'RE WHAT WE'LL GET BACK TO
YOU AS TO WHERE THE PROGRAM
STANDS RIGHT THIS MINUTE AND-
WE HAVE A WORKSHOP COMING UP TO
EXPLORE THESE ISSUES AND. TO
TAKE A STEP BACK THE BILL
CREATES- TO YOU PROGRAMS A
FORTY ONE THAT THE PART WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT- ELECTRIC
INFRASTRUCTURE IS A IS A
SEPARATE PEACE BUT THE PRIMARY-
FUNCTION OF THE BILL AND WHAT
WE'RE ASKING THE LEGISLATURE TO
SUPPORT IS- FOCUSED ON. SCHOOLS
LOCATED IN OUR UNDERSERVED
COMMUNITIES AND THE BILL
CREATES TWO PROGRAMS ONE IS
FOCUSED ON CLASSROOM
VENTILATION AND THE OTHER IS
FOCUSED ON INEFFICIENT PLUMBING
FIXTURES THE BILL IS INTENDED
TO AND I'M GONNA QUOTE FROM THE
TEXT BRIEFLY IT'S DESIGNED TO
SAVE ENERGY. A JOBS A TIME OF
ECONOMIC CRISIS AND PROVIDE
DIRECT SUPPORT TO SCHOOLS AND
SCHOOL CHILDREN IN UNDERSERVED
COMMUNITIES AND QUOTE. THAT'S A
PRETTY TALL ORDER BUT WE'RE
CONFIDENT WE CAN DELIVER ON
THOSE PROMISES AS OF TODAY TO
BRING UP TO SPEED WITH WHERE WE
ARE THAT THE CDC IS CONCEIVED
DRAFTED AND PUBLISHED PROGRAM
GUIDELINES WHICH ARE. ESSENTIAL
TO RUN THE PROGRAM WE HELD A
PUBLIC WORKSHOP AND HAVE
RECEIVED NUMEROUS PUBLIC
COMMENTS FROM A WIDE VARIETY OF
STAKEHOLDERS. BASED ON THOSE
COMMENTS WERE PLANNING TO-
PUBLISHED UPDATED GUIDELINES
AND THEN STAFF PLANS TO PRESENT
THESE GUIDELINES TO THE ENERGY
COMMISSION MAY. FOR FOR
PROPOSED OPTION AND AT THAT
POINT WE'LL BE ABLE TO START
FUNDING- ROGER. SAID HE
AUTHORIZED UP TO FIVE MILLION
DOLLAR PER FROM. THIS MORNING
WE'RE SEEKING ARE ONLY THREE
POINT SIX FIVE MILLION TO
SUPPORT TWENTY THREE STAFF.
ALSO INCLUDES TOWARD THOUSAND
DOLLARS FOR TECHNICAL SUPPORT.
AND SHARE TO YOUR POINT- NINETY
THOUSAND DOLLARS FROM A
DIFFERENT FINANCIAL BERKELEY
TRANSPORTATION FUND. FOR THIS
POINT SIX P. Y. FOR THE FOR THE
SEPT PORTION. THANK YOU. L. L.
L. YOUR COMMENT. YEAH THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR SO WE DON'T HAVE
ANY CONCERNS WITH THE REQUEST
FOR ADDITIONAL STAFFING
RESOURCES TO IMPLEMENT THE BILL
I THINK OUR- THE ONLY ISSUE WE
DID ONE FY I GUESS THAT THERE'S
A COMPANY IN TRAILER BILL
LEGISLATION PROPOSED TRAILER
BILL LEGISLATION THAT WOULD
CONTINUOUSLY APPROPRIATE THE
FUNDING. FOR THIS PROGRAM- ANDS
AND ARGUED THERE NEEDS TO BE AS
YOU KNOW I THINK SORT NEEDS TO
BE A STRONG RATIONALE FOR
PROVIDING CONTINUOUS
APPROPRIATION AUTHORITY AS IT
WOULD REDUCE OF LEGISLATIVE
OVERSIGHT OF THE OF THE FUNDS
AND SO AT THIS TIME IT'S NOT
CLEAR THAT THE- A CONTINUOUS
APPROPRIATION AUTHORITY IS
NEEDED TO SUCCESSFULLY
IMPLEMENT THE PROGRAMS WITHIN
THE LEGISLATURE MIGHT WANT TO
CONSIDER. INSTEAD ALLOCATING
THE FUNDING FOR THE ANNUAL
BUDGET PROCESS. SENOL CENTER
DOLLY. SO WITH THE THIS I'M
TRYING TO UNDERSTAND- THE
BENEFIT TO THE RATEPAYERS WILL
BE FUNDING THE SCHOOL ENERGY
EFFICIENCY STEMLESS PROGRAMS.
ALL THE SCHOOLS ALL OVER FOR
THE SPAWNING AND HOW TO THE
RATEPAYERS BENEFIT. IT'S A GOOD
QUESTION SENATOR- YES IT IS
RATEPAYER FUNDING AND THEY THEY
DO BENEFIT AND THEY BENEFIT. BY
VIRTUE OF. LUCK LIKE HER
SOLUTION SHE PROGRAMS AS WE
MAKE OUR SYSTEMS MORE EFFICIENT
IN THIS CASE- BUILDINGS IN THIS
CASE OUR SCHOOLS. MORE SESSIONS
AND- UTILIZING LESS ELECTRICITY
THAT- PRODUCTION BENEFIT OF ALL
THE GREAT PLAYERS WHO WOULD BE
CONTRIBUTED TO THESE PROGRAMS.
THE BILL OF THE FUNDS WILL BE
DISPERSED IN THE APPROPRIATE-
JURISDICTIONS SO ANOTHER WORDS-
PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC
RATEPAYERS WILL PAY INTO A FUND
THAT WILL SUPPORT SCHOOLS
LOCATED IN PGNIG SERVICE
TERRITORY. SIMILAR WITH THE
OTHER. PLAYERS THAT ARE
CONTRIBUTING TO IT AND IN TERMS
OF ELIGIBILITY OF SCHOOLS THE
LEGISLATION DIRECTS US TO FOCUS
ON LOW INCOME SCHOOLS OUT FIRST
AND THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE
INTEND TO DO. NOT JUST A QUICK
FOLLOW UP SO IF YOUR BUSINESS
IS ONLY A CHARGING I'LL USE SO
IF YOU'RE OUTSIDE OF THE I. O.
U.'S TERRITORY. ARE YOU IS YOUR
SCHOOL STILL AVAILABLE.
AVAILABLE FOR THESE BONDS. THE
ONLY ELIGIBLE SCHOOLS ARE THE
ONES LOCATED WITHIN THE SERVICE
TERRITORIES THAT ARE PLENTIFUL.
OKAY THANK. FORGET ALL RIGHT
SEEING NO OTHER HANDS WE'RE
GOING TO HOLD THIS MATTER AND
MOVE ON TO CONTINUE EITHER
SCHOOL BUS THING ISSUE NUMBER
FOUR WHICH IS- SB ONE TEN IS A
TWO YEAR. THREE QUARTERS OF
MILLION DOLLAR I REQUEST AND
LET'S SEE WHO WE HAVE. MISCIBLE
HOT YOU'RE UP AGAIN. EIGHT
THANK YOU THANK YOU GET YOUR
MEMBERS RIGHT SB ONE TEN
DIRECTED SEVENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS TO- GO TO ELECTRIC
SCHOOL BUSES THESE WERE FUNDS
THAT WERE LEFT OVER FROM THE
PROP THIRTY NINE PROGRAM. AND
THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN A GREAT
SUCCESS DESPITE THE MANY
CHALLENGES OUR SCHOOLS FACED
LAST YEAR. YOUR REALLY QUICK
BACKGROUND WE ISSUED A
SOLICITATION IN MAY OF TWENTY
EIGHTEEN TO ALL SCHOOLS WHO
MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN
PARTICIPATING AND MANY DID. WE
RECEIVE APPLICATIONS FROM TWO
HUNDRED SCHOOLS FOR OVER
FIFTEEN HUNDRED PLUS. THE
FUNDING ALLOCATED PERMITTED US
TO AWARD A TOTAL OF TWO HUNDRED
THIRTY FIVE BUSES. AS OF
DECEMBER THIRTY FIRST OF LAST
YEAR SIXTY ONE OF THOSE BOXES
HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO SCHOOLS-
SO WE FEEL GOOD ABOUT THAT OUR
GRANTS ALSO PROVIDED SIXTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS PER BOX FOR
CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE.
FINALLY WE AWARDED SIX POINT
ONE MILLION DOLLARS FROM A
DIFFERENT FRONT FUNDER CLEAN
TRANSPORTATION FUNDS. FOR
TWENTY FIVE COMPRESSED GAS
BUSES TO EIGHT SCHOOL
DISTRICTS. WERE PLEASED TO SAY
THAT 90% OF THE AWARDEES SERVE
ROUTES TO GO THROUGH
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES- THE
ORIGINAL TWENTY EIGHTEEN BUDGET
ACT FUNDING WAS THROUGH THIS
FISCAL YEAR AND WE COME TO YOU
THIS MORNING SEEKING THE FUNDS
YOU MENTIONED SHARE. TO SUPPORT
FIVE STAFF FOR TWO YEARS TO
ASSIST SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN
SELECTING BOSSES PREPARING THE
INFRASTRUCTURE- ETCETERA DO
DEPENDING ON THE SCHOOL THEY
HAVE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF
SOPHISTICATION WITH- WITH. THE

NINE PROGRAM OVERALL WAS VERY
SUCCESSFUL- WE HAD.
APPROXIMATELY ONE POINT SEVEN
FIVE BILLION DOLLARS THAT WORK
WAS WAS ALLOCATED OVER THE FIVE
YEAR PERIOD THAT THE FUNDS WERE
COLLECTED. AND WE HAD SOMETHING
LIKE TWO THOUSAND THAT THE
TWENTY ONE HUNDRED ELEAZAR- IN
LOCAL EDUCATION AGENCIES IN THE
STATE PARTICIPATE SO THERE'S
GREAT UPTAKE AND THE MONEY WAS
DISPERSED WIDELY TO SERVE
SCHOOL STRUCTURE TO CALIFORNIA.

THE FUNDING THAT WE AWARD ISSUE
COMPETITIVE AND WE AIM TO KEEP
IT THAT WAY THIS IS A
COMPETITIVE PROGRAM HOWEVER OUR
PROCESS IS VERY THOUGHTFUL
DELIBERATE. IT TAKES ABOUT A
YEAR FROM CONCEIVING- AN AREA
WE WOULD LIKE TO FIND HOLDING

APPLICATIONS ETCETERA
ULTIMATELY AWARDING FUNDS THAT

OF FUNDING ITSELF. THE ORIGINAL
PRICE HAD TO HAVE BEEN
COMPELLED BID. THE PROJECT TO
HAVE DONE IT'S A RISK. THE OF
ESTá POTENTIAL EXTRA DRESSING
TERM PRIORITIES SUCH A WHILE
FOR AND THE LIST GOES ON BUT
JUST TO GIVE A SENSE THIS THESE
ARE THESE ARE VERY NARROW STRIP
CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THE
FOLLOW ON FUNDING WOULD BE
APPROPRIATE. WHAT WE'RE SEEKING
DOES THIS MORNING FROM YOU IS
AFFORDED TO CONTINUE TO UTILIZE
THIS STRUCTURE WE'VE BUILT TO
ALLOW FOLLOW ON FUNDING GOING
FORWARD SB ONE FIFTEEN GRANTED
ONLY FOR THIS YEAR AND WE'D
LIKE TO CONTINUE IT. AND WE
THINK IT'S- IT. GIVEN THAT
WE'VE GOT SOME PROJECTS THAT
WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR FOLLOW ON
FUNDING THAT COULD- SERVICE
BOB. CHALLENGES WE'RE FACING
THIS COMING SUMMER WITH
RELIABILITY. NOW THIS THE
ENERGY DEPARTMENT PUBLISHED A
REPORT OR SORT OF A SENIOR YEAR
AND I THINK THAT SORT OF THAT
THAT ANALYZES THESE TO THE
COMPETITIVE GRANTS WE GAVE OUT
THESE ARE ALL THE GOOD THINGS
THAT WE'VE DONE THIS IS HOW
IT'S AFFECTED YOUR LIFE THAT
TYPE OF STUFF IT DESERVES A
LIKE THAT COMES OUT OF.
ABSOLUTELY WE DO AN ANNUAL
REPORT. AND WE PROVIDED TO THE
PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION AND
IT'S AVAILABLE TO THE
LEGISLATURE AS WELL AND I CAN I
CAN GET YOU THE MOST RECENT
ONE- OR OR ANY OF THE U. S.
OKAY LMAO YOU INDICATE THAT.
YOU WANT SOME SORT OF
NOTIFICATION BEFORE THINGS ARE
FUNDED ON THE FOLLOW ON. WHAT
DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE EPIC.
JUST REPORTING WHAT THEY DID
BECAUSE THIS DOESN'T SEEM LIKE
IT'S AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF MONEY
THAT'S AND THEIR- WHO'S HERE.
YEAH THAT'S THAT'S RIGHT MISTER
CHAIRS ACROSS FROM OF THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE-
WE DO THANK PROVIDING THIS TYPE
OF AUTHORITY AND FLEXIBILITY-
COULD MAKE A LOT OF SENSE- IN
THOSE SORT OF LIMITED
CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE- DIRECTOR
TALKED ABOUT- BUT WE THINK THE
LEGISLATURE MIGHT WANT TO
CONSIDER ADDING A REQUIREMENT
THAT THE ENERGY COMMISSION
NOTIFIES. LEGISLATURE BEFORE
KIND OF AWARDING THE FOLLOW ON
FUNDING- RIGHT RIGHT NOW I
THINK THE PROCESS WOULD BE THAT
THE NOTIFICATION WILL COME
AFTER THE AWARD AND SO-
PROVIDING THE NOTIFICATION
BEFORE THE AWARD WOULD JUST ADD
A LITTLE ADDITIONAL KIND OF
OVERSIGHT BEFORE THE MONEY IS
ACTUALLY ALLOCATED AND- THIS
COULD BE SIMILAR TO THERE'S AN
EXISTING. JAIL BC NOTIFICATION
PROCESS THAT THE CDC USES ONE
OF THE AWARDS- SOLE SOURCE
CONTRACTS WHERE THERE'S SORT OF
AN EXEMPTION TO THE REQUIREMENT
FOR COMPETITIVE BIDS AND SO THE
LEGISLATURE COULD CONSIDERING
ADOPTING SORT OF A SIMILAR TYPE
OF PROCESS HERE AS. WELL GOT IT
SENATE ALI. I WOULD JUST SAY I
BE IN. THAT I THINK WE NEED TO
HAVE. MORE OVERSIGHT THAN LAST
WE'VE SEEN. OVER THE PAST YOU
KNOW TIME THAT THERE'S YOU JUST
CAN'T MAKE SURE THEY'RE
COMPETITIVE AND IT'S DONE RIGHT
AND I THINK IT'S OUR OBLIGATION
TO DO THAT SO IN THIS IS.
ASKING FOR PERMANENT AND THEN
IN THIS EPIC LAST YEAR WAS ONE
WELL I WON YOUR AUTHORIZATION
AND THIS IS WOULD BE- CONTINUES
TO. BASICALLY A PERMANENT-
PROGRAM AND SO I THINK WE
SHOULD MAYBE LOOK AT THAT AS
WELL. OKAY THIRTY BEHIND THANK
YOU VERY MUCH WE'RE DONE WITH
THE ENERGY DEPARTMENT THIS
MORNING- AND LET'S SEE WHAT IN
EARTH. LET'S GO ON TO ISSUE
NUMBER SIX WHICH IS THE PUBLIC
UTILITIES COMMISSION CAN COME
FORWARD THIS IS- ANOTHER I. T.
PROGRAM. THE MORNING CHAIRMAN
HUSKY THE BOARD MEMBERS MY NAME
IS JONATHAN MARKETS AND I'M A
PROGRAM MANAGER IN THE CPC'S
COMMUNICATIONS DIVISION TODAY
WERE REQUESTED ONE POINT SIX
MILLION DOLLARS IN THE BUDGET
YEAR PLUS BUNGLING FUNDING OF
TWO HUNDRED NINETY THOUSAND
DOLLARS PER YEAR FOR
MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT TO
IMPLEMENT THE PROGRAM CLAIMS
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OR PC MASS
WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY PART OF A
TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN BUDGET
CHANGE PROPOSAL. THE SYSTEM
WILL PROVIDE A FULLY INTEGRATED
STANDARD ENTERPRISE WIDE
TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM. TO
AUTOMATE MANY FUNCTIONS ARE NOW
BEING PERFORMED MANUALLY AND
WITH PAPER BY BOTH
COMMUNICATIONS SERVICE
PROVIDERS AND COMMISSION STOP.
THE ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO MAKE IT
EASIER AND MORE EFFICIENT FOR
THE CPUC. REGULATED
COMMUNICATIONS SERVICE
PROVIDERS TO FILE PUBLIC
PURPOSE PROGRAM CLAIMS TRACK
THEIR PAYMENTS AND OTHERWISE
INTERACT WITH OUR AGENCIES
PUBLIC PURPOSE PROGRAM CLAIMS
PROCESS. IS SIMPLER MORE
ACCURATE AND MORE TRANSPARENT
WAY. THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE
PC MASS WAS DELAYED PRIMARILY
DUE TO ORACLE NO LONGER
SUPPORTING SOME OF THE
TECHNOLOGY THAT WAS USED TO
BUILD THE ORIGINAL SPLISH. IN
ADDITION IN THE MEANTIME CLOUD
BASED TECHNOLOGY REACH MATURITY
AND OFFERS A BETTER SOLUTION
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS YOU MAY HEALTH. AND
YOU BELIEVE THAT THAT THIS
TRANSPORTATION CURRIER CARRIER
PORTAL IS THAT TECHNOLOGY IN
THE CLOUD IS EASILY
TRANSFERABLE TO THE- PROGRAM
THAT YOU MANAGE. YES THAT'S
CORRECT END UP. BERMAN THE
SOLICITATION FOR THAT PROGRAM
PART OF THE GOAL WAS TO MAKE
THE TECHNOLOGY IS EASILY
TRANSFERABLE AS POSSIBLE INDEED
THAT WAS INDICATED IN THE
SOLICITATION. OKAY- HELLO
MISTER I'M BROWN. NO CONCERNS
WITH THIS REQUEST MR CHAN
CENTER DOLLY. ALONG WITH MY
TEAM OF MAYBE WE SHOULD GET
DISNEYLAND TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO
MANAGE OUR SYSTEMS- WHO ARE YOU
AND THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN
THIS HEARING THAT WE TALK ABOUT
IT WE SPENT EIGHT MILLION
DOLLARS SO. CAN YOU GIVE ME
SOME ASSURANCES ON. WHAT KIND
OF TECHNOLOGY YOU'RE GONNA USE
THIS IS ACTUALLY GONNA BE-
AVAILABLE FOR LONG TERM AND SO
THAT WE CAN. WE CAN STREAMLINE
THE PROCESS IS NO PRIVATE
BUSINESS WOULD BE ABLE TO KEEP
CONTINUE TO GO BACK AND PUT
THIS KIND OF RESOURCES INTO
THEIR I. T. PROGRAMS- IN STATE
BUSINESS IN IS QUITE.
FRUSTRATING ON SO MANY LEVELS
AS A LEGISLATOR TO I MEAN EDT
DMV. DTS I MEAN CAN YOU CAN YOU
GIVE ME SOMETHING THAT WOULD
MAKE ME WANT TO VOTE FOR THIS.
I UNDERSTAND YOUR FRUSTRATION
AND I THINK THAT WE SURE TO.
THE NOOSE- TECHNOLOGY THAT'S
BEING USED AT THE CORE OF THE
TRANSPORTATION CARRIER PORTAL
THAT WAS REFERENCED BY THE
CHAIR THE SALES FORCE BASED
PLATFORM. AND AS A RESULT WE
BELIEVE THAT THAT PLATFORM
PROVIDES A MORE STABLE AND LONG
TERM SOLUTION. AND THAT SALES
FORCE HAS BEEN VERY RESPONSIVE
IN WORKING WITH US ON THE
TRANSPORTATION CARRIER PORTAL
AND THAT MANY ELEMENTS OF THAT
PORT OR ALSO WILL BE PART OF
THE PROGRAM CLAIMS MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM. AND WHAT IT WHAT DO YOU
THINK THE LONG TERM VIABILITY
OF THIS PROGRAM IS AS IT IS A
GOOD FOR TWO YEARS FIVE YEARS
HOW HOW I MEAN I'M ONLY GONNA
BE ANOTHER THREE YEARS AND YOU
KNOW MAYBE. BY THEN WE CAN
FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET SOME OF
THESE PROGRAMS IN PLACE AND-
YOU KNOW WHERE MAYBE. PEOPLE
ARE ACCESSING A JUST GOING OUT
AND YOU KNOW DO THEIR GOOD WORK
SPECIALLY WAS ALSO DISINTEGRATE
RIGHT NOW SO WHAT WHAT'S THAT
HOW LONG. HOW LONG WITH THIS
PROGRAM- OR OR COULD IT BE-CONTINUE UPDATED LIKE TO DO MY
IPHONE EVERY COUPLE DAYS AT
HOME IT JUST TELLS ME IT'S
GONNA. DRAYTON IT WORKS PERFECT.
I'M HAPPY TO TEND TO ANSWER
QUESTIONS AND ALSO WE CAN.
SCHEDULE SEPARATELY- MORE
DETAILED BRIEFING. IN THE
CRITTER INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
STAFF MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT.
SALES FORCE REGULARLY UPDATES
OUR PLATFORM. AND SO THEY
SHOULD BE A LONG TERM
SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION. OUR GOAL
IS TO PUT IN PLACE- CLAIM
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM THAT CAN BE
USED. REPEATEDLY BY SERVICE
PROVIDERS FOR THE FORESEEABLE
FUTURE. THAT'S OUR GOAL. I'M
LOOKING FORWARD TO HOLD MY
BREATH. WELL WE HAVE THE . YOU

ISSUES FIRST WITH CDFA ISSUE
ELEVEN ON BEHALF OF WESTERN

SUPPORT OF THE APPROPRIATION
THAT THE GOVERNOR IS INCLUDED
IN THE BUDGET AND APPRECIATE
THE CONSIDERATION FOR THE
OPERATIONS AFFAIRS. BUT BELIEVE
THAT AS IT'S BEEN STATED BEFORE

HAS BEEN APPROPRIATE IS ALL

SIX TWO ZERO THAT SPECIFICALLY
PROHIBIT THE ALLOCATION. BASED
ON GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE WHEN IT
COMES TO- MONIES FOR AFFAIRS. I
WOULD ALSO LIKE TO POINT OUT
THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL
SERVICES IT HAS AN INVENTORY OF
THIS PROPERTY. I THINK THAT-
THEY'VE DONE AN INVENTORY OF
STATE AFFILIATED FAIRGROUNDS IN

APPROPRIATING THREE MILLION
DOLLARS- FOR THE DEPARTMENT FOR
THIS PURPOSE. SECOND ISSUE-
