PACKAGE AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE
TO. ANSWER MEMBER QUESTIONS
SHOULD THEY SHOULD THEY COME UP
. BUT REVENUES FROM THAT THE CAP

WE ESTIMATE- AND FOR BOTH THE
CURRENT AND THE BUDGET YEAR THAT
AT THE PROGRAM WILL RECEIVE-
EIGHT HUNDRED MILLION MORE IN
DISCRETIONARY REVENUES AND THE
ADMINISTRATION ESTIMATES SO-
ABOUT EIGHT HUNDRED MILLION MORE
WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR
DISCRETIONARY SPENDING. THERE IS
STILL SUBSTANTIAL UNCERTAINTY
ABOUT AUCTION REVENUES HOWEVER
THE NEXT AUCTION IS COMING UP ON
MAY SEVENTEENTH WHICH WILL
PROVIDE A BETTER SENSE OF THE
CURRENT YEAR A REVENUE PICTURE
BUT WE WON'T KNOW FOR CERTAIN
WHAT THE BUDGET YEAR REVENUES

. WITH THANK YOU WILL ASK OUR
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE TO COMMENT
. YEAH GOOD MORNING- TURN NUMBER
SERGIO AG OVER THE PART OF
FINANCE- THE JUST A FEW COMMENTS
JUST YOU KNOW COURSE- STARTING
OFF BY NOTING FOR THE RECORD
ADMINISTRATION SUPPORTS THE-
KEVIN TRADE CENTER PLAN AFTER
OPPOSE- AT THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET- WHICH I WON'T GO OVER
TODAY GIVEN THAT WE HAD. A
HEARING PREVIOUSLY ON THE
RESTRICTIONS CAP AND TRADE
EXPOSURE PLAN- BUT JUST YOU KNOW
KIND OF LOOKING AT THE SENATE'S
PLAN- YOU KNOW ONE OF THE BIGGER
DIFFERENCES WHICH MY COLLEAGUE
RALLY- HIGHLIGHTED- IS THE
REVENUE SOME SHINS WHICH THERE
ARE MUCH HIGHER REVENUE SECTIONS
AS PART OF THE- SENATE'S PLAN-
COMPARED TO WHAT. THE
ADMINISTRATION AT IDENTIFIED AT
THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET- WHICH YOU
KNOW NAPLES A LARGER PORTION OF
DISCRETIONARY PROGRAMS TO BE
FUNDED. ALSO JUST A NOTE- CAN
READ RATINGS DEMONSTRATIONS CAP
AND TRADE REVENUE ESTIMATES
TRADITIONALLY- YOU TAKE A MORE
CONSERVATIVE APPROACH TO LOOK AT
THE CURRENT- ADVANCE ALLOWANCES
THAT SELL AT THE FLOOR PRICE.
AND WE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PREDICT
WHAT THE AUCTION- WILL
ULTIMATELY YIELD TO NOT SEND ANY
MARKET SIGNALS AND ALSO TO
MAINTAIN THE INTEGRITY OF THE
CAP AND TRADE AUCTION PROCESS.
HOWEVER WE DO UPDATE OUR YOU
KNOW KEVIN TRADE REVENUE
ESTIMATES AFTER THE RESPECTIVE A
QUARTER SO AT THE MAY REVISION
WE WILL HAVE AN UPDATED REVENUE
ESTIMATE THAT REFLECT THE MOST.
RECENT AUCTION WHICH WAS NOT
PART OF OUR GOVERNOR'S BUDGET-
THE REVENUE ESTIMATES AND THEN
WE ALSO CONSIDER ADDITIONAL-
POTENTIAL TO YOUR AFFECTS
VENTURE THAT THAT POINT IN TIME.
ALSO WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THAT.
ARMENIA IS THE SENATE CAP AND
TRADE PLAN DOES INCLUDE MANY
PROGRAMS THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION. ALSO SUPPORTS
AND ARE PART OF OUR LARGER CLAIM
IT BUDGET- YOU KNOW DO YOUR F.
IS ONE FUNDING SOURCE OF OUR-
ADMINISTRATION'S LARGER CLIMATE
BUDGET- BUT WE ALSO HAVE MULTI
YEAR FUNDING. AND MULTIYEAR
AVAILABILITY FOR MANY PROGRAMS-
MANY WHICH ARE INCLUDED AS PART
OF THE- SEND ITS- CABIN TRADE
PLAN- BUT YOU KNOW OF COURSE.
THAT THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET DID
HAVE TO MAKE SOME- TOUGH THIS
THAN AND TO SEVERAL KEY CA PRO.
THAT ADDRESS THE- BUDGET- AND
YOU KNOW WE CAN DO TO SUPPORT
AMENITIES PROGRAMS AND ARE
ACTIVELY ALSO- LOOKING TO
PURSUE- SOME AVAILABLE FEDERAL
FUNDING. TO HELP OFFSET YOU KNOW
THE MOVE REDUCTION WE HAD TO
MAKE IN STATE FUNDING- AND THEN
ALSO YOU KNOW OF COURSE- YOU
KNOW HOPING TO ENGAGE IN IN
DISCUSSIONS ON A POTENTIAL BOND-
AND WE HAVE A FEW COLLEAGUES
HERE. ARE FROM SEVERAL
DEPARTMENTS- TO HELP ANSWER- BE
A PROGRAMMATIC QUESTIONS THAT
THE COMMITTEE MAY HAVE- YOU KNOW
JUST NOT WE DON'T HAVE-
DEPARTMENT STAFFER EVERY GIGI
REFUNDED PROGRAM AND SO THERE
MIGHT BE SOME QUESTIONS WILL
WHICH IS YOU KNOW- NEED TO GET
BACK TO THE COMMITTEE IN
WRITING- AND THAT. CONCLUDES MY
REMARKS. THANK YOU I'M- LISTER
BY INCEPTION QUORUM. BAKER HERE.
BAKER HERE MCGUIRE. DALI DALI
HERE. QUORUM HAS BEEN
ESTABLISHED. WELL THANKS I'D
LIKE TO START OFF- OF SOME
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE
SENATE PLAN. AND- THEN- WILL
HAVE A SERIES OF QUESTIONS AND
THEN TURNED OVER TO CENTER
DOLLY. AT FIRST YOU KNOW VERY
PROUD OF THE SENATE PLAN TO
PROTECT OUR PROGRESS A PLAN. WE
BELIEVE IT MAKES SMART
INVESTMENTS TO SHORE CALIFORNIA
CONTINUES TO BE A CLIMATE LEADER
AND ALSO PROTECTS AGAINST-
COASTAL- WHAT AT IN YOU KNOW
FIGHTS. COASTAL ROSHEN AND OTHER
IMPORTANT. THE FED'S- IMPORTANT
I THINK THE PLAN CHORES THAT
WILL BE BETTER POSITIONED TO WIN
THE FEDERAL GRANTS- AROUND THE
IRATE THAT ARE GOING TO BE
CRITICAL FOR BACKFILLING SOME
PROGRAMS AS WE DISCUSSED- AND
YOU KNOW PROTECTION PER CHART
PRIORITIZES INVESTMENTS IN IN.
BOTH EQUITY AND CLEAN AIR. THE
ENSURING THAT THE POLLUTER
PROFITS. THAT THE BASIS OF THIS
PROGRAM GO DIRECTLY TO COMBAT IN
THE CLIMATE CRISIS. OUR PLAN
REALLY GOES BACK TO BASICS- TO
PROTECT THE DANGERS OF CLIMATE
CHANGE SUCH AS SEA LEVEL RISE
AND FLOODING. AND A PLAN
MAINTAINS FUNDING FOR THE MOST
HIGH IMPACT EQUABLE CLIMATE
PROGRAMS. SO THE COMING CRISIS
CAN'T WAIT I THINK WE ARE PLAN
REPRESENTS THE URGENCY OF THAT.
A PARTY RESORT BE ABLE INVEST IN
IMPORT INVESTMENTS TO REDUCE
GREENHOUSE GASES ACROSS ALL THE
VARIOUS SECTORS SUCH AS
TRANSPORTATION ENERGY
AGRICULTURE IS A TEN MILLION
DOLLAR HOUSING INFRASTRUCTURE
BOND. THAT IS PART OF THE SENATE
FUND THIS PART OF THE SENATE
PROGRAM. AND THAT OFTEN CRITICAL
INVESTMENTS THAT ARE THEY'RE NOT
FUNDED OR DELAYED UNDER THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED BUDGET.
CLEAN MANY COMPONENTS OF THIS
HAVE PACKAGE- YOU KNOW SIX
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS SIX
HUNDRED ELEVEN MILLION DOLLARS
ACROSS PROGRAMS A CARBON CC SO.
JUST ONE KNOW THAT THE STATE HAS
BARBARA CASH BALANCES FROM FOR
TARGETED AT PURPOSES IN THE PAST
ALL THESE PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
ARE ONE TIME IN NATURE AND
INFRASTRUCTURE. RELATED IN THERE
FOR OUR PROPERTY FUNDED WITH
INTERNAL OF BORROWING IN FACT
THE STATE BUILDINGS OTHER
INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS ARE
COMMONLY FUNDED WITH PART FUNDS
IN THE GOVERNOR HAS MADE NEW
NUMEROUS NEW PROPOSALS TO SHIFT.
ACOSTA TO A BOND FUND SO- I
THINK AGAIN THIS IS ENABLED BY
THAT DECADE RESPONSIBLE
BUDGETING- THAT WE'VE HAD- AND
ALLOWS US TO MAKE THESE DAYS
CRITICAL INVESTMENTS
REPRESENTED. IN IN OUR OUR
PRODUCT IT YOU KNOW IN THE IN
THE PROPOSAL SO- AND BY
PROTECTING THAT- PROTECT
PROTECTING THOSE FUNDS AND NOT-
BORROWING FROM FUTURE GREENHOUSE
GAS. FUNDS OF COURSE ALLOWS US
TO USE THE CURRENT FUNDS FOR
OTHER PURPOSES THAT YOU'VE SEEN
LAID OUT IN THE SENATE. A PLAN.
A WITHOUT MOVED TO A SEVERAL.
QUESTIONS AREAS AREAS WILL START
WITH THE AGRICULTURE RELATED. A
METHANE REDUCTION SO- MAYBE SORT
OUT WITH CARB. IN TO SOME FROM
CARP CAN DISCUSS HOW. FEED
ADDITIVES PLAYS A ROLE WE WILL
PLAY A ROLE IN ARE TARGETING OF
S. B. THIRTEEN EIGHTY THREE FOR
THE AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY. TO
HAVE SOMEONE HERE OF INTEREST
THAT I THINK WE DO HAVE A
REPRESENTATIVE FROM CDFA WHO CAN
ADDRESS THAT QUESTION OKAY.
HI GOOD MORNING MY NAME IS
VIRGINIA JAMES AND I'M THE
DEPUTY SECRETARY FOR CLIMATE AND
WORKING LANDS AT THE DEPARTMENT
OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE. AND THE
DEPARTMENT OF FOOD AND
AGRICULTURE BELIEVES THAT THE
CONTINUED IMPLEMENTATION OF
INCENTIVE BASED VOLUNTARY
CLIMATE SMART SOLUTIONS. WILL
PLAY THE STRONGEST ROLE IN
ACHIEVING THE 40% METHANE.
EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS- SO
RECENTLY WE HAD A SUMMIT MAYBE
YOU HEARD ABOUT IT ACTUALLY
SENATOR BAKER YOU SENT YOUR
STAFF PERSON TO THE LAST TWO
DAYS OF SUMMIT AND WE REALLY
REALLY APPRECIATE THAT- WE HAD
OVER THREE HUNDRED FOLKS ATTEND
FROM ALL AROUND THE COUNTRY TO
TALK ABOUT THIS VERY ISSUE-
ENTERIC. METHANE SOLUTIONS AND
FEED ADDITIVES. I'M AND WHAT WE
FOUND WAS THAT THIS IS A VERY
CHALLENGING ISSUE- THERE ARE
OVER TEN BILLION GUT BACTERIA.
THAT ARE MAKING THESE EMISSIONS
THERE ARE- EVEN IN TYPICAL
CATTLE RATIONS THERE ARE YOU
KNOW MANY DIFFERENT-
AGRICULTURAL BY PRODUCTS THAT
ARE USED LIKE BROCCOLI STALKS
AND CARROT TOPS AND ALL KINDS OF
THINGS. AND SO FIGURING OUT HOW.
WE ARE GOING TO- HAVE FEED
ADDITIVES THAT. INTERACT WITH
ALL OF THOSE THINGS AND REDUCE
METHANE ON A LONG TERM BASIS IS
TRICKY- SO WE'VE ALSO BEEN
WAITING FOR- SOME ACTION FROM
THE- DEPARTMENT OF- SORRY YOU
GUYS ARE SCARY. FROM THE FDA-
AND THEY ARE THEY'RE GOING TO BE
THE ONES THAT DETERMINE THE
REGULATORY PASSWORD A PATHWAY
FOR FEED ADDITIVES AND SO WE
UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A BILL
AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL AND IN
PROCESS RIGHT NOW. THAT WILL-
SET OUT THAT PATHWAY AT THE FDA
AND THEN EVERY PRODUCT- WILL
HAVE TO GO THROUGH THEIR
EVALUATION PROJECT PRODUCT AB
PROCESS BEFORE THEY CAN BE USED
IN. A LIVESTOCK AND DAIRY IN
CALIFORNIA- SO. ALL THAT SAID WE
THINK IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT-
IT'S AN IMPORTANT PART OF ALL
REACHING R. S. B- THIRTEEN
EIGHTY THREE GOALS HOME WE KNOW
THAT ENTERIC METHANE IS 30% OF
THE METHANE EMISSIONS IN
CALIFORNIA- AND THAT THERE'S A
LOT OF. WORK TO BE DONE TO
ADDRESS THOSE- WE DO FEEL
HOPEFUL YOU KNOW GIVEN THE TURN
OUT AT OUR SUMMIT THE LAST
COUPLE DAYS WE HAD- IN A
GLOBALLY AND NATIONALLY ALL THE
EXPERTS IN THE ROOM- ARE VERY
DEDICATED AND FOCUSED WORKING ON
THIS TOPIC- AND WE HAVE HOPE.
AND THIS IS THE KIND OF THING
THAT ONCE WE DO HAVE APPROVED
PROJECTS AND PRODUCTS AND WE
HAVE TRIALS WERE GOING TO BE
ABLE TO- NOT GETTING FED TO
CATTLE REALLY FAST IN THE IN THE
EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS WILL HAPPEN
QUICKLY. THANK YOU. WE'RE NOT
THAT SECURE MAYBE SENATE ALWAYS
. OF THE- A COUPLE QUESTIONS ON
THESE LINES ARE PRE SHOOT YOUR
RESPONSE IS GREAT- AND IT'S
WONDERFUL TO HAVE SOME PEOPLE TO
SUMMIT AND TO REALLY HAVE THAT
CONVENIENCE- INTERNATIONAL AND
GLOBAL BASIS TO HAVE FOLKS HERE.
THAT HOUSE THE CURRENT
APPLICATION DISTRIBUTION OF
FUNDING FOR RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT FOR LAST YEAR'S. A
TEN MILLION DOLLARS FOR INTIMATE
ENTERIC FERMENT- MET WELL
ENTERED MATH IN RESEARCH AND-
INTERPRETATION RESEARCH GONE SO
FAR. AND WHAT ISN'T ISSUES
YOU'RE CONSIDERING THE
DISTRIBUTION OF THAT MONEY. I'M
OKAY SO FOR THAT TEN MILLION
DOLLARS- WE ARE. PLANNING TO
FUND AND WE HAVE AN RGA AND
PROCESS THAT'S GOING TO BE
REPLACED RELEASED IN THE NEXT
COUPLE OF MONTHS. ON AND THAT
WILL BE USED TO FUND
DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS FOR FEED
ADDITIVES AND THOSE WILL BE
ADDITIVES THAT HAVE DEMONSTRATED
EFFICACY FOR REDUCING METHANE
EMISSIONS- AND RESEARCH AND
DIETARY MODIFICATIONS THAT ARE
INTENDED TO REDUCE EMISSIONS
FROM LIVESTOCK- WE YES SO AS I
SAID WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON
THAT RGA- WERE ALSO IN
COORDINATION WITH THE FOOD AND
DRUG ADMINISTRATION. I'M SO THAT
WE CAN IDENTIFY THE HIGHEST
PRIORITY ADDITIVES FOR
INCLUSION. IN OUR DEMONSTRATION
PROGRAM AND SO THAT WE MAKE SURE
THAT THE PROTOCOLS THAT WERE
USING FOR THAT RESEARCH- ARE.
ARE PROPERLY SET UP SO THAT THEY
INFORM THE FDA'S PROCESS- SO
SEPARATELY WE'VE ALSO ISSUED IN
CLOSE TO COMPETITIVE
SOLICITATION- THE FOR GRANTS TO
CALIFORNIA BASED ENTITIES I
BELIEVE THOSE WERE UC'S FOR
RESEARCH PROJECTS- THAT ARE
ALIGNED WITH CALIFORNIA'S
EFFORTS TO IMPLEMENT CLIMATE
SMART AG- FOCUSED ON. NUTRIENT
MANAGEMENT AND METHANE REDUCTION
FROM DAIRY AND LIVESTOCK
OPERATIONS- AND THEN WE ALSO HAD
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS IN FUNDING
FROM THE BUDGET ACTIVE TWENTY
TWENTY ONE. THAT'S GOING TO BE-
DEDICATED TOWARDS THREE IMPACT
AREAS THE SOLICITATION IS
ALREADY OPEN AND CLOSED IN WERE
SELECTING PROJECTS AND THAT WILL
INCLUDE. VERIFICATION OF METHANE
REDUCTION STRATEGIES FROM PAST
PROJECT TYPES THAT WE'VE HAD
LIKE ANAEROBIC DIGESTION IS AN
ALTERNATIVE A METHANE REDUCTION
STRATEGIES AS WELL AS- FROM OUR
MANY WERE RECYCLING IN
INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS DEVELOPMENT
PROCESS. I'M WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY
ABOUT THIS SO CDFA ALSO FUNDED
TO HIGH PRIORITY METHANE
PROJECTS- ONE THAT'S GOING TO
EVALUATE FIFTY. BY PRODUCTS FOR
THEIR POTENTIAL TO REDUCE
ENTERIC METHANE AND THEN ONE
THAT WE CO FOUNDED WITH CARB TO
DEVELOP A STANDARD PROTOCOL FOR
EVALUATING FEED ADDITIVES. AND
THEN JUST TO EXPLAIN THE BY
PRODUCTS A LITTLE BIT BETTER AS
I SAID THERE ARE MANY- THERE'S
FOOD WASTE IN CALIFORNIA THAT IS
RE ROUTED TO BECOME ANIMAL FEED
AND SO WE WANT TO EVALUATE. ARE
THERE JUST- DIETARY RATIONS THAT
CAN BE IMPROVED THAT WILL REDUCE
METHANE THEMSELVES. THANK YOU
FOR THAT- I DO NEXT YEAR
ANTICIPATING THREE IN A P. WILL
BE APPROVED BY THE FDA. AND SO
FAR THIS BEEN ABLE DEMONSTRATE
AT LEAST 30% EMISSION
REDUCTIONS. IS CFA CONSIDERING
PILOT PROJECTS TO INCENTIVIZE
THIS AND OTHER FEED ADDITIVES IN
COMING YEARS. YEAH SO I
MENTIONED THAT CDFA IS
CONTINUING TO- DISCUSS PATHWAYS
FOR APPROVAL OF PRODUCTS WITH
THE FDA- AND IF APPROVED BY FDA
OF THREE N. O. P. AND ANY OTHER
ADDITIVES COULD BE FUNDED AS
PILOT PROGRAMS OR PROJECTS TO
HELP. FOSTER ADOPTION WITH
PRODUCERS IN THE STATE- AND THAT
WOULD BE KIND OF DEPENDENT ON
THE TIME LINE OF THEIR APPROVAL
AND WHETHER OR NOT THAT'S IN
LINE I'M- WITH THESE FINDINGS
AND THE TIMELINE THAT WE HAVE TO
SPEND TIME ON. OKAY OF
CIRCULATING ON THIS. OKAY I WANT
TO BE SCARED. WELL THANK. OKAY
ACTUALLY THE- IN EQ WE HAD A
BILL UP- TALKING ABOUT SENATOR-
ALLEN HAS A BILL ABOUT METHANE
DIGEST HERS AND- AND IT'S COMING
THROUGH BUT I WANT TO THE
QUESTION I HAVE IS. DO YOU KNOW
THE COST PER TON IT IT COSTS FOR
US TO ACTUALLY CAPTURE. METHANE
LUKASZ TO CAPTURE WE HAVE TO
LIKE A DERRY DIGEST HER. YES WE
DO HAVE THAT NUMBER AND MY
COLLEAGUE FROM A CASINO WHO'S
OUR DEPUTY FOR FINANCE AND
ADMINISTRATION HAS THAT INFO
THANK YOU. HI THANK YOU I'LL
JUST JOIN YOU FROM HERE TO MAKE
IT EASIER HI MY NAME'S ARMOR
BECAUSE THE NINE THE DEPUTY
SECRETARY FOR FINANCE AND
ADMINISTRATION AT THE DEPARTMENT
OF FOOD NOT. SO WHEN IT COMES TO
DERRY DI JESTERS CURRENTLY THE
COLLECTIVE GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS FROM OUT OF
A HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE
PREVIOUSLY AWARDED. PROJECTS IS
TWENTY TWO POINT NINE FIVE
MILLION METRIC TONS OF CO TWO
EQUIVALENT OVER TEN YEARS WHEN
YOU BREAK THAT DOWN THE
APPROXIMATE COST TO ACHIEVE ONE
METRIC TON OF CO TWO EQUIVALENT
OVER TEN YEARS. IS APPROXIMATELY
TWENTY DOLLARS GIVE OR TAKE
SIXTEEN CENTS. THANK YOU THANK.
I REPUBLICAN. ON YEAH I HAVE FOR
ON HIGH SPEED RAIL STUFF WITH
OKAY WE NEED TO. RIGHT I'M-
THANK YOU. VERY HELPFUL YOU YOU
ARE NOT TOO SCARY OKAY. ALL
RIGHT. LET THE WORD GO OUT OF.
SO AT LIKE TO MOVE ON TO YOU
ENERGY. A. N. AT THE SOME
PRIMARILY FOR CEASE. FOR IF WE
HAVE FOLKS WHO TO DO- AND I WANT
TO START OUT WITH ENERGY BY. SO
LESS YEAR THE WAY HOUSE COULD
LEE. OF STATE AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS IN CORNISH WITH
FEDERAL AGENCIES TO PROMOTE
AWARENESS BILL INFORMANT
STANDARDS. THE NATIONAL AND THIS
IS CALLED THE NATIONAL BUILDING
FROM CENTERS COALITION. LATE
LAST YEAR CALIFORNIA JOIN THESE
EFFORTS- WHICH SHARES RESULTS
BEST PRACTICES FOR THE LIVING
CLEANER HEALTHIER AND MORE
AFFORDABLE BUILDINGS WHILE
CREATING JOBS A- IS ESTIMATED AT
TWENTY BILLION DOLLARS. OF- OF
THE ECONOMIC IMPACT IN NEW YORK
CITY ALONE. THE BILL INFORMED
STANDARDS ALLOWING COSTS AND
PRIORITIZING FRONTLINE A
COMMUNITIES. FOR THE CECE'S
BUILDING ENERGY BENCHMARKING
PROGRAM. THAT CURRENTLY REQUIRES
OWNERS OF LARGE COMMERCIAL AND
MULTI FAMILY BUILDINGS REPORT
ENERGY USE AND COVERS BUILDINGS
WITH MORE THAN FIFTY THOUSAND
SQUARE FEET OF FLOOR AREA. AND
FOR RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS MORE
THAN SIXTEEN RESIDENTIAL UNITS
THAT DATA SAID THAT CAN THEN BE
USED TO COMPARE THE ENERGY
INTENSITY. AND GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSIONS OF BUILDINGS TO THEIR
PEERS. AND WILL BE FOUNDATIONAL
FOR MEASURING IMPROVING THE
PERFORMANCE OF LARGE BUILDINGS
AS PART OF THE BUILDING
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS. HAVE ONLY
ABOUT 65% OF BUILDING SUBJECT TO
THE POINT REQUIREMENTS ARE
CURRENTLY A COMPLAINTS THAT DATE
IS INCOMPLETE AND INSUFFICIENT
RIGHT NOW TO SUPPORT BILL
INFORMED STANDARD. THE SENATE
GIGI R. F. PLAN DOES INCLUDE
FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS FOR THIS
PROGRAM TO ALLOW THE C. C. TO
IMPROVE OUTREACH AND EDUCATION
ABOUT. BUILDINGS CAPABLE OF
REPORTING ENERGY USAGE. AND
IMPROVE ENFORCEMENT TO THE
BENCHMARKING DATA COULD BE USED
AS THE BASIS FOR FUTURE.
BUILDING PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT
EFFORTS. SO I GUESS FOR THE CC
AND WHY DO YOU BELIEVE
COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXISTING.
ENERGY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
ARE LOW AND WHAT DO YOU PLAN TO
DO IMPROVE ON THESE NUMBERS-
GOOD MORNING. AND THANKS FOR
HAVING ME MIKE SO COOL WITH THE
CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION I'M
THE DIRECTOR OF OUR EFFICIENCY
DIVISION WHICH INCLUDES A
BENCHMARKING PROGRAM- END FOR
SPECIFIC NUMBERS- OF THE TWENTY
TWENTY ONE DATA THAT WAS
REPORTED LAST YEAR- THERE'S A
68% COMPLIANCE RATE FOR
COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS AND 71% FOR
MULTI FAMILY BUILDINGS- WHICH
IS- SORT OF A CONTINUATION OF
THE PRIOR YEAR WITH WITH. A
LITTLE BIT OF WE WILL RUN THEIR-
OVER THIS PAST YEAR WE HAVE AT
THE CC FOCUSED ON CONTINUED
DEVELOPMENT OF. OF PULLING
TOGETHER COMPREHENSIVE COVERED
BUILDINGS LIST WHICH IS. NO
SMALL FEAT- THAT INCLUDES ALL OF
THE CALIFORNIA'S FIFTY EIGHT
COUNTIES- AND IN ADDITION TO
IDENTIFYING THIS COVERED
BUILDINGS ALSO IDENTIFYING THE
CONTACT INFORMATION FOR THE
BUILDING OWNERS WHICH IS A
SEPARATE CHALLENGE. AS WELL- WE
HAVE- BEEN CONSISTENTLY ENGAGING
WITH AND ARE TAKING EFFORTS TO
INCREASE ENGAGEMENT WITH- OUR
OUR PARTNER STATE AGENCIES AND
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS- THAT HAVE
SEPARATE BENCHMARKING PROGRAMS-
THAT THAT HAVE SOME EXEMPTIONS
FROM STATEWIDE REQUIREMENTS BUT
REQUIRE CONSISTENT REPORTING- AS
WELL AS THE UTILITIES THAT- THAT
SUPPORT THAT THE DATA. REQUEST
AND SO WE CONTINUE TO HAVE AN
INCREASING ACCURACY AND
COMPLETENESS OF THE COVER
BUILDING LIST AND- TAKE MANUAL
EFFORTS TO- IMPROVE OUR CONTACT
INFORMATION AS WELL- I WILL SAY
SPECIFICALLY OVER THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS SINCE THIS
PROGRAM. A REGULATIONS WERE
ADOPTED IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN THE
PROGRAM WANTED TO PLACE- THERE
HAVE BEEN SOME SIGNIFICANT
ISSUES IMPACTING- REPORTING ONE
OF WHICH- IS THE COBIT SHUTDOWNS
WHICH OCCURRED OVER THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS- ENTER NOW- OUT OF
AFFECTS- AS A RESULT. OF THE
PANDEMIC- THERE WERE SOME
SUSPENSION AND DELAYS OF LOCAL
PROGRAMS AND STATEWIDE REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS- TO ACCOMMODATE-
THE REALITIES OF THE SITUATION-
BUT WITH THE- OFFICIAL ENTERED
THE PANDEMIC THE CC DOES EXPECT-
THAT THIS ANNUAL REPORT A YEAR
WHICH IS DUE JUNE. FIRST TWENTY
TWENTY THREE COVERING LAST
YEAR'S DATA THERE WILL BE- AN
INCREASING COMPLIANCE COMPARED
TO PRIOR YEARS- NOW THAT THE
LOCAL PROGRAMS- ARE BACK UP AND
RUNNING- THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES
AS WELL INCLUDING A LACK OF
AWARENESS BY BUILDING OWNERS OF
THE- THE BENCHMARKING.
COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS- AND
THAT'S AN ACTIVE YOU KNOW OUT
REACH- A PRIORITY THAT THE CC IS
TAKING ON- OR- BUILDING
UNDERSTAND HAVE THE RESOURCES TO
COMPLIANCE WE'RE LOOKING THROUGH
A RANGE. OF SUPPORT RESOURCES AS
WELL- I MENTION THE COVER
BUILDING IS INCOMPLETE THIS IS
BEEN- ON ON GOING CHALLENGE
WHICH REQUIRES SOME MANUAL
INTERVENTION. THERE ARE SOME
PUBLICLY AVAILABLE RESOURCES TO
PULL FROM HOWEVER- DOES- OR I
SHOULD SAY- AVAILABLE FOR
PURCHASE HOWEVER THOSE CANNOT BE
USED IN PUBLICLY DISCLOSED-
PROGRAMS AND SO WE HAVE TO- SORT
OF DISMANTLE TRUING UP ACROSS A
VARIETY OF DATA SOURCES. TO GET
THERE- WE HAVE EVALUATED SOME
DATASETS FOR PURCHASE- AND THERE
ARE TRADE OFFS BUT WHAT WE HAVE
DONE IN THIS LAST FISCAL YEAR IS
BRING ON BOARD. A A CONTRACTOR
WHO PROVIDES A RANGE OF TOOLS
AND SERVICES TO SUPPORT OUR
ENHANCED OUTREACH ENGAGEMENT AND
DATA ON TRACKING ON THE
BENCHMARK OF PROGRAMMING-
TOUCHTONE I. Q. AND WITH THE
SUPPORT OF THESE NEW TOOLS AND
RESOURCES WE DO ANTICIPATE- THE
COMPLIANCE RATE TO INCREASE BOTH
THIS REPORTING YEAR AND- IN
FUTURE. REPORTING YEARS AS WELL
- THERE IS ON TOP OF THAT JUST
CHALLENGES COMMUNICATING WITH
THE BUILDING OWNERS WHERE THERE
ARE- YOU KNOW QUESTIONS
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE THAT'S
REQUIRED- AND WE DO HAVE- WE
HAVE STEPPED UP A CALL CENTER TO
HELP ASSIST IN THAT AND WE DO
ANTICIPATE AS THIS YEAR'S
REPORTING DEADLINE APPROACHES.
AN INCREASE IN THAT TECH
ASSISTANCE CAN BE NECESSARY- IN
ADDITION SOME OF THE LOCAL
PROGRAMS HAVE FACED CHALLENGES-
PARTICULARLY LOWER COMPLIANCE
WITH SOME OF THE STATE OWNED
BUILDINGS AS WELL AS PUBLIC
COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES- AND
SO WE DO ENGAGE WITH THE-
DEPARTMENT GENERAL SERVICES AS
WELL AS THE CHANCELLOR'S OFFICE
FROM THE UC CSU AND COMMUNITY
COLLEGE SYSTEMS- BUT THERE ARE
ON GOING. SORT OF BARRIERS TO
MAKING SURE THERE'S CONSISTENT
REPORTING THERE THAT WILL WILL
CONTINUE TO ENGAGE WITH- AND
THAT LEADS TO LOW COMPLIANCE
THERE ARE- YOU KNOW SOME SMALLER
ISSUES THAT AT TIMES HAVE
IMPACTED ON SPECIFIC CASES OF
REPORTING. DATA BUT THOSE ARE
SORT OF THE BIGGER ISSUES. WELL
THANK YOU WELL HOPEFULLY THIS
FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS CAN HELP-
IN EITHER SO WHAT VERY SPECIFIC.
AREAS WHERE- SEEMS ADDITIONAL
DOLLARS COULD BE HELPFUL AND-
SHE SAID HER THE CALL CENTER
COULD I THINK THAT COULD HELP
YOU OUT WITH AWARENESS- AND
WITH- YEAH JUST INCREASING
COMMUNICATION TO GET THAT NUMBER
UP- IN AND- HAS HE SEE FEEL
ABOUT LEVERAGING THE
BENCHMARKING DATA TO IMPROVE.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY TO ACHIEVE THE
STATE'S GOALS AND YOU BELIEVE
THERE ARE GOOD EXAMPLES FROM
OTHER STATES. SO THAT'S
ABSOLUTELY SOMETHING THAT WE
THAT WE BELIEVE IN SO THE
FOUNDATIONAL DATA GATHERING
THROUGH THE BENCHMARKING
PROGRAM- IS THIS SORT OF
PRIORITY ONE MAKING SURE WE HAVE
A COMPREHENSIVE DATASET- TO
COMPARE SIMILAR BUILDING TYPES-
TO EACH OTHER WE DO. RECOGNIZE
THAT WITH THESE INCREASED TOOLS
AND WITH SOME INCREASED- SORT OF
INTERSTATE AND- TECH ASSISTANCE-
THAT'S THAT'S NOW TAKING SHAPE
ACROSS THE COUNTRY- THAT WE WILL
BE LOOKING AT THINGS LIKE
BUILDING PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
WHICH WERE TRACKING CLOSELY- IN
OTHER TERRITORIES AS WELL AS THE
DISCUSSIONS IN CALIFORNIA AS
WELL- AND BUT THAT. ARE CRITICAL
YOU KNOW A KEY COMPREHENSIVE
DATASET ON BENCHMARKING IS
CRITICAL TO MAKE SURE THAT
THAT'S- OF TAKING SHAPE
APPROPRIATELY- IN ADDITION WE
DO- SOME G. SHE EMISSIONS
ACCOUNT BASED ON THE
BENCHMARKING DATA AND WE HAVE
USE THAT. TO INFORM SOME OF OUR
OUR POLICY AND ANALYSIS REPORTS-
IN THE PAST AND WE CERTAINLY SEE
THAT AS A VALUABLE OPPORTUNITY-
IN A RANGE OF AREAS AS WELL-
LOCALLY I WILL SAY THERE ARE
PROGRAMS THAT ARE LOOKING AT ME
AT MAKING MORE SPECIFIC.
ACTIONABLE EFFICIENCY
IMPROVEMENTS BASED ON
BENCHMARKING DATA SUCH AS THE
CITY OF SACRAMENTO- WHICH USES
THE BENCHMARKING DATA TO DEVELOP
SPECIFIC POLICIES FOR EXISTING
BUILDING ELECTRIFICATION
EFFORTS- AND FOR SOME RETROFIT
REQUIREMENTS WE WORK WITH BOB.
SOME THE SEVEN JURISDICTIONS-
THAT HAVE LOCAL EXEMPTED
BENCHMARKING DATA AND SO THEY'RE
USING THAT FOR A RANGE OF
DIFFERENT AUDITING AND-
REQUIREMENTS THAT GO BEYOND THE
STATEWIDE BENCHMARKING
REQUIREMENTS- IN SAN FRANCISCO
AS YOU SOME OF THE DATA TO.
IMPROVE OUTREACH- AND EVALUATE
SOME OF THE DATA PRIVACY ISSUES
AS WELL AS- THE SUPPORT-
RENEWABLES AND CARBON REDUCTIONS
BEYOND- THE STATEWIDE STANDARDS
THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT. IN
ADDITION THROUGH THE NATIONAL
BUILDING PERFORMANCE STANDARD
DISCUSSION EFFORTS WE ARE
LISTENING AND LEARNING FROM
OTHER STATES SUCH AS COLORADO
NEW YORK AND WASHINGTON THAT ARE
TAKING A VARIETY OF APPROACHES
TO PURSUE BUILDING PERFORMANCE.
STANDARD OVER TIME AND YOU KNOW
WE'RE WE'RE EAGERLY LISTENING TO
THAT DISCUSSION TO SEE WHAT MAY
COME NEXT ON HERE IN CALIFORNIA
AS- OF THE LEGISLATURE MAY TAKE
ACTION IN THE FUTURE. OKAY I'M-
WELL. GOOD YEAH THAT'S EXCELLENT
AND THIS IS A BIG AREA AS WE
LOOK AT ACROSS A REDUCE
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS ACROSS
ALL AREAS OF THE CAUGHT ME. AS
PER OUR LAST DISCUSSION- ABOUT
AGRICULTURE AND INTERIOR
FERMENTATION. THIS IS ABOUT
FIVE- 5% OF OUR EMISSIONS OF THE
TWENTY MILLION METRIC TONS SO
IT'S SIGNIFICANT TO APPRECIATE
YOU. LOOKING AT THIS AND- ENGAGE
IN TWENTY FOR THESE OTHER STATES
AND SO HOPEFULLY WE GET THIS
MONEY IN THERE IT CAN HELP US-
GET THAT INCREASE THE COMPLIANCE
AND GET TO. THE POINT WHERE WE
REALLY CAN CONNECT ONE OF THE
STANDARD SO I APPRECIATE THAT.
I'M A MOVE ON TO THE NEXT YEAR
ANALYSTS AND KING OF THE RULES.
FIRST I WANT TO. THANK THE
CHAIR- BUT- I WANT TO JUST
TRAVIS MIGHT FIRST COMMENTS WITH
THE- THIS IS THE SENATE PLAN. IS
ACTUALLY DEMOCRAT SENATE PLAN
THIS ISN'T A REPUBLICAN WE ARE
WE'RE NOT ENGAGED IN PUTTING ANY
THIS TOGETHER SO I'M KIND OF IT
A LITTLE BIT OF A DISADVANTAGE
BECAUSE- I SHOULD ACTUALLY BE
ASKING MY QUESTIONS OF THE
SENATE. WHO'S PUTTING THIS PLAN
FOR SO AT WITH WITH THAT
PREFACES AYE IN AND WE HAVE THE
GOVERNOR'S PLAN. AND SO I'M
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT. WHERE BOTH
PEOPLE ARE HEADED SO WHAT I CAN
COMMENT ON SO I'M IT AT SOMEONE
OF A DISADVANTAGE I WANT TO
JUST. PUT THAT OUT TO START
WITH. SO I JUST WHEN I HAD TO
HAVE SOME QUESTIONS ON. ON A
COUPLE OF THESE ITEMS IN IN-
ISSUE EIGHTEEN CAP AND TRADE
PLAN SO. I MEAN HE IS DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCE COULD HELP ME OUT
HERE WITH. YOU KNOW THE SENATE
PLAN IS EIGHT HUNDRED FORTY
SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS FOR HIGH
SPEED RAIL IN THE GOVERNOR'S
PLAN IS FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY SIX
MILLION SO- HOW DID THAT COME
OUT OF THAT COME ABOUT I MEAN
WHAT WHAT'S THAT. THERE'S A BIG
GAP THERE AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT.
MAYBE HOW THOSE NUMBERS CAME
ABOUT SO WE CAN. OUR HEADED ON
THIS IS US HERE CONNECT WITH THE
L. A. O. SO THIS AS AS AS YOU
MENTIONED THIS IS THE SENATE
MAJORITY PLAN. OF HOWEVER- OUR
OUR REVENUE ESTIMATES DID INFORM
THE PLAN AND- AS AS YOU MAY
REMEMBER FROM OUR OUR PREVIOUS
HEARING. OF THE ADMINISTRATION
USES THE PRICE FLOOR OF
ALLOWANCES TO CALCULATE HOW MUCH
REVENUE WE CAN EXPECT- HOWEVER
OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS-
ALLOWANCES HAS SOLD ABOVE THE
PRICE FOR WHICH WHICH IS WHY OUR
ESTIMATES ARE HIGHER. THAN THAN
THE ADMINISTRATION SO. THE
TAKING OF THE FORMULAS IN THE
STATUTORY. REQUIREMENTS IN INTO
ACCOUNT FOR THE CONTINUOUS
APPROPRIATIONS HIGH SPEED RAIL.
IS ALLOTTED 25% OF AUCTION
REVENUES AT THAT'S THAT'S WHERE
THAT NUMBER IS COMING FROM. OKAY
PERFECT SO- I BELIEVE THAT WE
IT'S A WASTE OF MONEY FOR THE
HIGH SPEED RAIL I DON'T THINK
ANYBODY IN THIS ROOM. KNOWS
WHERE I STAND ON THIS ISSUE I
THINK WE PER TON COST- FOR HIGH
SPEED RAIL EVEN THOUGH I KNOW
THAT. IT'S MANDATORY THAT 25% OF
THE RESOURCES GO TO- HIGH SPEED
RAIL I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING WE
NEED TO WORK ON WHICH IS. IS SO
CAN I CAN DOES ANYBODY CAN
QUANTIFY. THE AMOUNT THE COST
PER TON- THAT HIGH SPEED RAILS
REDUCING CARBON. BRANIMIR THE
PARMA FINANCE- I WAS ACTUALLY
LOOKING AT THE- PERSON OF THE
TWENTY TWENTY THREES CLIMATE.
CALIFORNIA CLIMATE INITIATIVES
REPORT WHICH IS THE APPENDICES-
WE DO HAVE. A BREAKDOWN OF THE
VARIOUS PROGRAMS THAT ARE FUNDED
BY THAT- UNFORTUNATELY THAT ONE.
LITTLE PIECE IS NOT I CAN'T FIND
IT IN THE STATE. APPENDIX IT IS
IN THE REPORT SO. I JUST DON'T
HAVE THAT AT MY FINGERTIPS THE
MOMENT SO WE CAN HAVE TO GET
BACK TO ON THAT PARTICULAR STE
STATISTIC IF THE LIKE. YES I DO
WOULD WOULD APPRECIATE THAT I
SAID ON THE TRANSPORTATION
COMMITTEE AND A FEW YEARS BACK
WE ACTUALLY HAVE THE HIGH SPEED
RAIL IN FRONT OF THE COMMITTEE.
AND YOU KNOW IT'S MOVED THE GOAL
POSTS HAS MOVED QUITE A BIT- IN
TWO THOUSAND EIGHT WHEN THEY
AUTHORIZED AT HIGH SPEED RAIL-
IT THE ESTIMATE COST WAS- THIRTY
BILLION DOLLARS BY TWENTY TWENTY
AND IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
COMPLETE. AND HERE WE ARE TWENTY
TWENTY THREE AND WE DON'T EVEN
HAVE ONE FOOT A TRACK LAID DOWN-
AND IN THAT. SCENARIO THEY HAD
CHANGED- ADMINISTRATORS THREE
TIMES AND- THERE WAS TALK OF IT
NOT EVEN BEING ELECTRIFIED IT
MAYBE. STILL OPERATED HIGH HAD A
DIESEL ENGINE. AND SO I THINK
THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT
THE HECK'S GOING ON BECAUSE IF I
CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT I DON'T
THINK ANYBODY. IN THE PUBLIC'S
GOING TO HAVE A REAL GOOD GRASP
ON IT SO. IT'S A J. IT'S A HUGE
CHUNK OF MONEY I MEAN WE'RE
WE'RE LOOKING AT. NO OVER THREE
QUARTERS OF A BILLION DOLLARS IF
THE REVENUES COME IN. HIGHER
THAN THE BASE AND EVEN IF THE IF
THEY COME IN AT THE BASE LEVEL.
WHERE WE'RE OVER HALF A BILLION
DOLLARS EVERY YEAR. FOR PROJECT
IS NOW EXPECTED TO COST. A
HUNDRED AND FIVE BILLION AND WE
DON'T EVEN HAVE A DATE WHEN
WE'RE GOING TO- COMPLETED- THE
PHASES OF THAT SO. I THINK IT'S-
SOMETHING THAT IS- HAS TO DO WE
HAVE TO TALK ABOUT IT IS IT
WORTH DOING. AND ARE WE REALLY
REDUCING CARBON- BECAUSE A LOT
OF THE BILLS THAT WE SEE COME
THROUGH- YOU KNOW. AT ALL COSTS
WE WANT TO STOP CARBON IT
DOESN'T MATTER THE COST WILL
REALLY DOES NOT A COST AND SOME
OF THE LEGISLATORS HAVE BEEN-
PICKING THEIR- THEIR- THEIR
PARTS THEY DON'T LIKE LIKE.
JERRY DIGEST OR SOME LEGISLATORS
ARE TRYING TO SAY HEY THAT'S NOT
A GOOD BANG FOR THE BUCK WELL
WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT THE
DOLLAR PER TON. THEN LET'S TALK
ABOUT ALL DOLLARS PER TON WHICH
IS. HIGH SPEED RAIL RIGHT NOW IS
THE MOST EXPENSIVE THERE'S NO
DOUBT ABOUT THAT- AND WE DON'T
KNOW HOW MUCH IT'S ACTUALLY
GONNA REDUCE SO I WANT TO JUST
BRING THAT UP I WANTED TO FIND
OUT HOW WE CAME UP WITH THE TWO
DIFFERENT. HOW THE SENATE CAME
UP WITH. EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY
FORTY SEVEN MILLION MILLION
DOLLARS- AND THEN YOU KNOW THE
GOVERNOR WITH FIVE HUNDRED
TWENTY TWENTY SIX. WITHOUT THANK
YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT I WOULD
LOVE TO HAVE THAT BEFORE WE HAVE
OUR BUDGET HEARING BECAUSE I'M
GONNA BRING IT UP ON THE FLOOR.
AND SHAME ALL THESE AND SENATORS
WHO KEEP VOTING FOR THIS BECAUSE
WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING
DIFFERENT IT'S A WASTE OF MONEY.
THANK YOU FOR THAT I DO HAVE I
DO HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR CARP
I KNOW THAT WITH THAT'S PART OF
THIS. DISCUSSION ITEM AND THEIR
BASELINE OPERATION SO I. IS
THERE SOMEBODY FROM CARP THAT
TEAR OURS ARE YOU GUYS COVERED-
I THINK WE NEED TO HEAR THE
QUESTION FIRST OKAY. WELL THE
CALIFORNIA RESOURCES. SOURCES
BOARD IN THEIR TWENTY. TWENTY
SCOPING PLAN ESTIMATED THAT THE
STATE WILL STILL NEED NINETY
SEVEN. MILLION BARRELS OF OIL IN
STATE PRODUCTION. IN TWENTY
FORTY FIVE. MEANING THAT OUR
ENERGY TRANSFER. TRANSITION WILL
TAKE SEVERAL DECADES- EVEN
THOUGH. WE ARE MOVING AT A-
FASTER PACE ON THE REGULATORY
SIDE THAT WE ARE WHAT THEY'RE
SCOPING PLAN SAYS- THE DATA FROM
THE CALIFORNIA RESOURCE BOARD.
AND THE US ENERGY INFORMATION
ADMINISTRATION TELLS. US THAT
CALIFORNIA SHUTTING DOWN LOCAL
OIL PRODUCTION FOUR TIMES
FASTER. THAN THE STATE AGENCIES
ESTIMATED FOR THAT TRANSITION
SO. WHAT'S THE RATIONALE BEHIND.
THE NEXT QUESTION THE ACTUAL
QUESTION IS THEY- THEY JUST TOOK
ACTION LAST WEEK TO PHASE OUT
DIESEL TRUCKS. IN CALIFORNIA THE
SELL DIESEL TRUCKS IN
CALIFORNIA. BY TWENTY THIRTY SIX
AND I WANT TO KNOW HOW THEY
EXPECT TO DO THAT WHEN THEIR OWN
REPORT SCOPING REPORT SAYS WE'RE
GONNA USE NINETY SEVEN- A
MILLION BARRELS OF OIL IN
CALIFORNIA TWENTY FORTY FIVE. HI
SENATE ALL METAL AT THE
CALIFORNIA AREAS ARE NOT SCARY
I'M JUST ONE. GOOD TO SEE YOU
AGAIN- SO I CAN SPEAK TO THE
SCOPING PLAN- AGAIN MAP UNTIL
I'M THE DIVISION CHIEF
INDUSTRIAL STRATEGIES DIVISION
THIS COMPLAINT IS UNDER MY
PURVIEW- AND THE CALIFORNIA
RESOURCES BOARD. AT SO WHAT WE
PUT IN THE SCOPING PLAN REFLECTS
THE FACT THAT UNDER REGULATIONS
LIKE OUR ADVANCED CLEAN CARS
REGULATION REGULATIONS LIKE
ADVANCE CLEAN FLEETS THE ONE
THAT WAS ADOPTED JUST LAST WEEK.
AS WELL AS OTHER REGULATIONS WE
HAVE IN THE TRANSPORTATION SPACE
THAT THESE REGULATIONS TYPICALLY
INCLUDE SALES MANDATES AS YOU
YOU MENTIONED- THAT ALSO PROVIDE
FOR THE ONGOING OPERATION OF
LEGACY VEHICLES IN THE FUEL POOL
IN THE VEHICLE POOL SO. EVEN
WITH THAT TWENTY THIRTY SIX
DEADLINE THEY'RE STILL GONNA BE
DIESEL TRUCKS DRIVING AROUND THE
PER PURCHASE PRIOR TO THAT
TWENTY THIRTY SIX DEADLINE FOR
INSTANCE AND THERE'S GONNA BE
FUEL DEMAND FOR THOSE VEHICLES.
SO THAT'S ONE COMPONENT OF WHERE
WE GET TO THAT NUMBER OF FUEL
DEMAND IN TWENTY FORTY FIVE THE
OTHER COMPONENT IS THAT THERE
WILL STILL BE SOME AREAS IN THE
STATE WHERE- THERE WILL BE
LIQUID FUEL DEMAND IN IN TERMS
OF- SOME MARINE SECTORS IN
AVIATION SECTOR SOME OFF ROAD
SECTORS AND SO. THAT DEMAND WILL
PERSIST BECAUSE THOSE THOSE
PARTICULAR SECTORS MAY BE MORE
CHALLENGING TO ELECTRIFY OR
POTENTIALLY THE PLAYERS- MISSION
STRATEGIES SO THE FUEL DEMAND
THAT PERSIST IN TWENTY FORTY
FIVE THAT WE PROJECTED IN THE
SCOPING PLAN. REFLECTS THE FACT
THAT THERE WOULD BE STILL SOME
OF THOSE LEGACY COMBUSTION
ENGINES AND SOME OF THOSE HARDER
TO CARBONITE SECTORS BUT STILL
HAVE SOME FUEL DEMAND. YOUR
REFLECT YOU. REPLY THAT BUT THE
INDUSTRY SO. I'M GIVE YOU
EXAMPLE SO YESTERDAY. I HAD- THE
LOCAL WASTE HAULER IN MY OFFICE
I ACT I SAID I'M THE- THE- VICE
CHAIRMAN URGING THE VICE CHAIR
VQ WHICH MOST OF THAT AND I'M ON
HOW TO RESOURCES ALL THESE
ISSUES ARE GOING TO. GO THROUGH
AT LEAST ONE AND I DON'T WANT
TRANSPORTATION SO THERE ARE. I
DON'T MISS THEM THEY'LL THEY'LL
COME BY MY OFFICE SO FOR EXAMPLE
. BUT TO ELECTRIFY. A NATURAL
GAS GARBAGE TRUCK. THE DUTY
CYCLE IS ONE THIRD THE TIME. OF
A- BUT NATURAL GAS TRUCK. WHICH
THEY WERE MANDATED PUT IN PLACE
SO ALL OF OUR PUBLIC SECTOR-
CITIES COUNTIES SCHOOL
DISTRICTS. WASTE HAULERS ARE
GONNA BE THERE TRANSITION
THEY'RE GONNA START
TRANSITIONING. SO YOU HAVE TO
HAVE THREE- THREE GARBAGE TRUCKS
TO DO THE DUTY CYCLE OF ONE.
NATURAL GAS TRUCK. AND THE COST
OF THAT IS GOING TO DRIVE UP THE
COST OF WHAT IT COSTS US TO DUMP
A GARBAGE CAN IN FRONT OF MY
HOUSE. WHICH THE RATES ARE GOING
UP AS WE HAVE NOW ORGANIC WHICH
IS ANOTHER COST THAT WE HAD LAST
YEAR SO. HOW HOW DO YOU- I GUESS
FOR THE FOR THE AND WE'RE IS
MARCHING FORWARD. SETTING
TARGETS AND- MANDATING WITHOUT A
CLEAR PLAN EVEN WITH ALL THE
SCOPING PLAN OF KARMA SHOWING US
SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT AND
THERE'S A LOT OF. REALLY SMART
PEOPLE I MEAN I LISTENED IN THIS
COMMITTEE ABOUT. BUT BUT THE I
THINK THAT WHAT WE'RE MISSING.
IS THE- WHAT IS IT GOING TO COST
AND HOW AN HOUR IS THAT IS THAT.
TIME FRAME. THE MOST EFFICIENT
WAY TO DO IT FOR THE REDUCTION
OF CARBON AND THE COST. DO YOU
TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION
THAT IT MAY COST ME SEVENTY FIVE
DOLLARS A GARBAGE CAN EVERY
COUPLE WEEKS TO GET IT DONE
BECAUSE I THE- WASTE HAULER HAS
TO HAVE. THREE TRUCKS TO MAKE
THE DUTY CYCLE WORK. SO I'M
GONNA SPEAKING MORE GENERAL
SENSE HERE BECAUSE I WILL SAY
THAT MY DIVISION IS NOT THE
DIVISION THAT THAT IMPLEMENTED
THE ADVANCE CLEAN FLEETS
REGULATION BUT I WILL TALK ABOUT
KIND OF CONSISTENCY BETWEEN THE
SCOPE AND PLANNED TO. THE
REGULATION IT WAS A STOP TO PART
POURED THE GENERAL REGULATORY
PROCESS. AND SO WHAT WE DID PUT
FORWARD IN THE THIRD TWENTY
TWENTY TWO SCOPING PLAN WERE
TARGETS AROUND AS YOUR MACHINE
VEHICLE DEPLOYMENT FOR THE LIGHT
DUTY MEDIUM AND HEAVY DUTY
SECTOR THE BOARD ADOPTED OUT IN
DECEMBER. WHEN THE BOARD HEARD
THAT ADVANCE CLEAN FLEECE
REGULATION JUST LAST WEEK THEY
DID DECIDE TO ADOPT A TARGET
THAT IS. SLIGHTLY MORE
AGGRESSIVE THAN WHAT WAS PUT
INTO THE SCOPING PLAN BUT THERE
ISN'T A- INCONSISTENCY
NECESSARILY FROM THE BROAD
SIGNALING IT WAS INCLUDE BOTH OF
THIS COMING PLAN WITH THE BOARD
ULTIMATELY ADOPTED IN THE CF
WHICH IS THAT TRANSITION TO ZERO
EMISSION VEHICLES IN THE- IN THE
MEDIUM AND HEAVY DUTY SECTOR. AS
FAR AS THE COST ANALYSIS GOES AS
WITH ANY MAJOR REGULATION THAT
THE BOARD ADOPTS WE HAVE TO DO
AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS BY STATUTE
SO THAT IS PART OF OUR-
REGULATORY IMPACT ASSESSMENTS IN
ECONOMIC ANALYSIS THAT GOES INTO
EACH OF THE RULES THAT WE
ADOPTED SO THAT INFORMATION IS
PUT FORWARD AS PART OF THE- RULE
MAKING PROCESS AND- CONSIDERED
BY THE BOARD AS PART OF THE
OPTION OF ANY. REGULATION THAT
WE HAVE. MORE SEND INFORMATION.
IT'S PUBLIC IT'S PART OF THE
RULE MAKING THAT THAT. THAT WE
PUT FORWARD WHEN WE ADOPT A
REGULATION. HAPPY TO FOLLOW UP
WITH THE LINKS TO THE
DOCUMENTATION. DOESN'T TAKE INTO
CONSIDERATION THE COST OF
SERVICES THAT ARE SUPPLIED BY.
THESE THESE AGENCIES AND QUITE
FRANKLY FOR PRIVATE BUSINESSES.
THE COST OF THE PRIVATE BUSINESS
. SO AGAIN I'M IN A- I'M I'M IN
A NEW PLAYED A LITTLE BIT OF A-
BIGGER IT'S HERE ON THE
SPECIFICS OF THE REGULATION I
WILL TALKING REGULAR. IN IN
GENERALITIES BUT WE HAVE TO LOOK
AT WHEN WE DO RECOVER MAKING-
AND THAT INCLUDES. A DOING A
COST ASSESSMENT ON. THE COST TO
PURCHASE TECHNOLOGY TO FUEL THAT
TECHNOLOGY RELATIVE TO OTHER
OPTIONS AND SO THAT IS PART OF A
RULEMAKING ASSESSMENT. ON YOUR
SPECIFIC QUESTION WOULD HAVE TO
SUBPOENA TO GET BACK TO YOU ON.
SEPARATE FOLKS OF THE
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ADVANCE
CONFLICTS WRECK. R. Y. PURSUIT
THAT I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT. A
COMMENT FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC
THAT'S OUT THERE THAT MAY BE
WATCHING. AND TRYING TO FIGURE
OUT EXACTLY WHAT I'M TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT IS THAT YOU KNOW.
THERE ARE A LOT OF LEGISLATORS
AND THE GOVERNOR AND PEOPLE WHO
MAKE. TALK AND DO A VICTORY LAP
SAYING WE'RE SAVING THE
ENVIRONMENT BUT DON'T TAKE INTO
CONSIDERATION THE COST- AND I
CAN TELL YOU. FROM THE PHONE
CALLS I GET IN MY OFFICE IT
ISN'T ABOUT. ARE WE SAVING THE
ENVIRONMENT IS LIKE AIR CLEAN
IT'S ABOUT HOW CAN I STAY IN
CALIFORNIA. AND AFFORD TO HAVE A
HOME. AFFORD TO PAY THE GARBAGE
BILL. FOR TO DRIVE A CAR OR
TRANSITION TO SOME OTHER TYPE OF
CAR WHEN OUR INFRASTRUCTURE IS
NOT A PLACE. AND SOMEWHERE WE
HAVE TO HAVE A BETTER PLAN I
THINK. TARGETS EVEN EVEN WE'RE
NOT REALLY ABIDING BY OUR OWN
PLAN WE'RE AGGRESSIVELY. I MEAN
IN CARBS OWN. SCOPING PLAN WE'RE
GOING FOUR TIMES FASTER THAN
THEY- ORIGINALLY SAID WE SHOULD.
TAKE TO TRANSITION AND THERE'S A
COST TO THAT. THERE'S A COST TO
THE PUBLIC. IN AT THE SAME TIME
WE'RE SPENDING. HUNDREDS OF
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON A TRAIN
THAT WILL. NEVER IN MY MIND BE
FINISHED. A USING GREENHOUSE GAS
MONEY ISN'T IT WE SHOULD BE
USING THAT FOR. OTHER PROGRAMS
THAT COULD GET US THERE FASTER
THAT ACTUALLY REDUCE CARBON
QUICKER. SO I JUST WANT THAT TO
BE KNOWN BECAUSE THIS IS
DEFINITELY NOT- I KNOW IT'S THE
SENATE MAJORITY'S PLAN BUT IT IS
DEFINITELY NOT THE SENATE
MINORITIES PLANTS OR ONE OF. THE
RECORDS SHOW THAT AND I'D LOVE
TO HAVE THAT INFORMATION BECAUSE
I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT IT- WHEN WE
COME TO THE FLOOR BECAUSE I. I
THINK I READ SOMEWHERE WAS LIKE
A HUNDRED SIXTY EIGHT. THOUSAND
DOLLARS PER TON IT'S WAY UP
THERE. AND I'D BE HAPPY TO TAKE
THAT MONEY AND USE IT FOR DERRY
DIE GESTURES AND- AND OTHER
THINGS AT THE SAME TIME WE DON'T
COUNT. CARBON FROM FOREST FIRES
WHICH IS THE BIGGEST EMITTER OF
CARBON. IN OUR STATE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU I DO A FEW OTHER AREAS
OF SPECIFIC- QUESTIONS BEFORE WE
OPEN UP TO. THE PUBLIC COMMENT I
WILL SAY. AS A GENERAL PRINCIPLE
I DO. SUPPORT OVER TIME
ORIENTING OUR GREENHOUSE GAS
FUNDS. MONEY ARE ON A BANG FOR
BUCK BASIS AND REALLY TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT HOW WE CAN. LEVERAGE
IT TO REDUCE GREENHOUSE GASES
AND I DO THINK THERE'S- A LOT OF
STUFF IN IT THAT YOU THINK
THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF IN HERE-
MAKE YOU APPRECIATE THE GENERAL
SENTIMENT. SO THANK YOU MAXIMS
OF THAT IS IN THE IN THE SENATE
MAJORITY OF PLAN. THE I WANTED
TO TURN TO ECKEL BUILDING
DECARBONIZATION. AND THESE ARE
PROGRAMS AIMED AT SUPPORTING LOW
ENERGY BUILDING UPGRADES FOR
LOW. TO MODERATE INCOME FAMILIES
UP TO CLEAN UNDER RESOURCE
COMMUNITIES. SO CENTERS FOR LOW
CARBON BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES FOR
LOCAL- WARMING HITS REFRIGERANTS
IN HOMES A CARBON CC- IT AND THE
C. C. N. R. PLAN. THAT CONTAINS
ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS FOR
THIS. PROGRAM THIS IN ADDITION
TO THE RESTORATION OF THE
GENERAL FUND CUTS. TO THIS
PROGRAM UNDER THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSAL SO. I GUESS MY FIRST
QUESTION WOULD BE. A KEY
PRODUCTS FOR THE UPDATE OF THE
PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION. I HAVE A
TWO SEVEN ORDER- GOOD AFTERNOON
MY NAME IS DINA CARILLO AND I'M
THE DIRECTOR OF THE RENEWABLES
RELIABILITY AND BUILDING
DECARBONIZATION INCENTIVES
DIVISION HERE AT THE CC. WILL BE
WE'RE DEVELOPING THE EQUITABLE
INDYCAR PROGRAM. I'M SO I'M
HAPPY TO SHARE THAT- WE POSTED
AN RFI ENDED SOME WORKSHOPS LAST
DECEMBER AND ACTUALLY POSTED ARE
PROPOSED GUIDELINES FOR THIS
PROGRAM THIS MORNING. OUR FIRST
INITIAL PUBLIC WORKSHOP IS
SCHEDULED FOR MAY SEVENTEENTH
THIS MONTH. THE FOCUS OF THE
GUIDELINES AND WORKSHOP IS THE
FOUNDATION OF OUR DIRECT
INSTALLATION PROGRAM UNDER THESE
ADVERTS. STAFF WILL CONDUCT
EXTENSIVE STAKEHOLDER OUTREACH
ENGAGEMENT IN COORDINATION WITH
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS COMMUNITY
BASED ORGANIZATIONS RESIDENTS AS
WELL SUCH SOME TRIBAL LISTENING
SESSIONS OVER THE NEXT SIXTY
DAYS. THEN THE GUIDELINES WILL
BE FINALIZED AND ADOPTED BY THE
COMMISSION OVER THE SUMMER AND
EARLY FALL. CONCURRENTLY WERE
WORKING ON A SOLICITATION FOR
THIRD PARTY IMPLEMENTERS TO
IMPLEMENT THE PROGRAM ON A
REGIONAL BASIS. AND WE'RE ALSO
WORKING WITH OUR SISTER AGENCIES
TO SEE IF THERE'S SOME OTHER
EFFORTS THAT WE CAN QUICKSTART-
TO FOCUS ON BUILDING DE
CARBONIZATION. FOR OUR NEEDIEST
CALIFORNIANS. THANK YOU I'M- YOU
MAY MENTION SPREADING CATCH AS
THE PUBLIC- WELL HOW HAS A
PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. PROCESS BEEN
GOING THROUGH THROUGH THAT ARE
FI- PROCESS THAT YOU MENTION
YEAH IT- THE PROCESS ISN'T GOING
WELL WE HAD A ROBUST- RESPONSE
TO THAT RFI INTO OUR FIRST
WORKSHOP WE'VE CONCURRENTLY BEEN
CONTINUING TO WORK WITH
COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATIONS.
AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
COMMUNITIES- TO CONNECT ON HOW
BEST TO ROLL OUT THE PROGRAM AND
GET FEEDBACK ON THESE PROPOSED
GUIDELINES SO OUR REGIONAL
WORKSHOPS ACROSS THE STATE OVER
THE NEXT SIXTY DAYS WILL ARE
INFORMED BY THAT COLLABORATION.
AND WILL BE HOSTING THEM AROUND
THE STATE- AND OFFERING
DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR BOTH
RESIDENTS LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
IMPLEMENTERS AND COMMUNITY BASED
ORGANIZATIONS TO ENGAGE. AND YOU
SAY WHEN THE GUIDELINES WILL BE
RELEASED THEY WERE ACTUALLY
RELEASED THIS MORNING OKAY. THEY
HAVE IT YEAH GOOD TIMES. THIS IS
AUTOMATED QUESTION WELL AFFORD
TO CHECKING THAT OUT- WHY DO YOU
THIS PROGRAMS IMPORTANT FOR THE
TRANSITION OF BUILDING
DECARBONIZATION. THAT IS A
REALLY GOOD QUESTION OUR
EXISTING BUILDING STOCK
REPRESENTS 25% OF OUR GREENHOUSE
GAS EMISSIONS WELL OUR EXISTING
BUILDING CODE HELPS TO SOLIDIFY
AND IMPROVE- OUR INDOOR GHG FOR
NEW BUILDINGS ARE EXISTING
BUILDINGS. ARE REALLY THE MOST
CHALLENGING THAT'S ABOUT 80% OF
OUR BUILDING STOCK WAS DEVELOPED
BEFORE BUILDING CODE THAT COULD
BE A DAVID STATISTIC SO I'LL
HAVE TO FACT CHECK MYSELF ON
THAT AFTER THIS- I WOULD SAY ONE
OF OUR BIG FOCUSES AS WE LOOK AT
THE COST OF DECARBONISATION. I'M
IT'S BEEN ESTIMATED THAT THAT
NEED IS ABOUT SEVENTY TWO TWO
HUNDRED AND FIFTY BILLION
DOLLARS- TO RETROFIT OR EXISTING
BUILDINGS HOW MUCH AGAIN HE SAID
SEVENTY TWO BILLION TWO HUNDRED
AND FIFTY BILLION- THAT'S A
STATISTIC FROM THE BUILDING
DECARBONIZATION COALITION THAT
WAS ESTABLISHED- IF WE WERE TO
FOCUS ON LOW INCOME AND MODERATE
INCOME HOUSEHOLDS FROM A GRANT.
ONLY PERSPECTIVE FOR BUILDING
DECARBONIZATION SO WHILE THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET WAS A ROBUST
IN THIS INVESTMENT THAT HE
PROPOSED LAST YEAR IT IS REALLY
JUST THE BEGINNING- OF THE
NEEDED TO DECARBONISE OUR
EXISTING BUILDINGS. I THINK THE
REAL RISK IF I MAY IS THAT
WITHOUT KIND OF THOUGHTFUL AND
INTENTIONAL PRIORITIZATION FOR
LOW INCOME CALIFORNIANS ARE
STATE MOST OUR STATE'S MOST
VULNERABLE CALIFORNIANS MAY BE
LEFT BEHIND. YEAH METS CONCERT
OF MINE AS WELL- SHE MENTIONED A
LITTLE BIT BEGIN COULD YOU SPEAK
IN THE HOUSE PORTMAN IS.
ADVERTISING LOCUM HOUSEHOLDS IN
THIS DEVELOPMENT AND
IMPLEMENTATION SURE THE
STATUTORY LANGUAGE FOR THE
EQUITABLE INDY CAR PROVIDES A
PREFERENCE FOR UNDER RESOURCE
COMMUNITIES. GIVEN THE FINITE
USE OF RESOURCES AND WHERE WE
ARE WITH THE BUDGET WERE
ACTUALLY PRIORITIZING ALL
DOLLARS UNDER RESOURCE TO
COMMUNITIES. I'M THAT DEFINITION
IS IN STATUTE- SO BY MAIL REFER
TO IT FOR A MINUTE SO THESE
DOLLARS WILL BE PRIMARILY
FOCUSED ON. DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES DESIGNATED BY
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION AGENCY OR CALLUM
BYERS SCREEN. ARE CENSUS TRACTS
WITH MEDIAN INCOME HOUSEHOLDS AT
OR BELOW 80% OF THE STATEWIDE
MEDIAN INCOME OR CENSUS TRACTS
WITH MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOMES AT
OR BELOW THE THRESHOLD
DESIGNATED BY H. C. T. H. C.
DEEPER LOW INCOME. SO ALL OF THE
FUNDING IS GOING TO LOW INCOME
CALIFORNIANS AS WE BEGIN OUR
LAUNCH. EXCELLENT WELL I THINK
YOU ARE TOO GOOD WELL THE- I
THINK WHY WE'RE DOING THIS AND
AGAIN I THINK THAT'S WHY. WE
MADE IT A PRIORITY IN THE
SENATE. MAJORITY PLAN TO PUT A
HUNDRED DOLLARS THIS PROGRAM ON
TOP OF. A RESTORING THAT CUT TO
DO THINK IT'S- M. DO YOU THINK
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT AND JUST AS
IN THE- CASE OF YOUR MISSION
VEHICLE SENT IS MAKE SURE WERE
TARGETED AT UNDER RESOURCE
COMMUNITIES. WE GOTTA MAKE SURE
EVERYBODY FEELS THAT. THEY ARE
ARE PARTICIPATING IN THE
BENEFITS OF THIS AND THEY CAN
GET. SAY AIR CONDITIONING
THROUGH PUTTING IN A HEAT PUMP-
IN THEIR HOUSE WITH THE GET
BETTER INDOOR AIR QUALITY
BENEFITS OR- AND THEN HOPEFULLY
LOWER BILLS AS WELL AS WE IT
JUST START AS WE- AS WE ADDRESS
OUR A LECTURE RATES OVER TIME
SO- THANK YOU FOR THAT. BUT TO
MOVE ON TO- TWO MORE AREAS THE-
ONE IS AROUND. CARBON REMOVAL.
AND- AS AS WE KNOW IN THE
LEGISLATION WAS PASSED LAST YEAR
IN THE GOVERNOR SIGNED INTO LAW.
WITH A COMMITMENT TO NET ZERO BY
TWENTY FORTY FIVE. YEAH S. AS
WAS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY BUT MY
COLLEAGUES OR DIE THIS IS A NET
YOUR TARGET RIGHT TO THEY'RE
STILL- WILL BE CONCERNED
CONSERVE OUR MISSION SO IT'S-
85% DIRECT EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS
IN AT LEAST 15% THOSE EMISSIONS.
ARE GONNA NEED TO BE REMOVED-
AGAINST TOTALLY SEPARATE FROM
CARBON CAPTURE WHICH IS
CONSIDERED PART OF THE DIRECT
EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS THIS IS.
CARBON REMOVAL. OF SIXTY FIVE
MILLION METRIC TONS A YEAR. AT
THE SCOPING PLAN CROAT DEFIES
THE NEED FOR THE INVESTMENT.
DEMONSTRATION DEPLOYMENT AND
DEVELOPMENT. OF CARBON DIOXIDE
REMOVAL TO MEET OUR TARGETS.
ADDITION A BY DEMONSTRATION HAS
BROAD FUNDING IN BOTH THE AYE
AYE J. R. REED TO SUPPORT IT I
BELIEVE THAT I BY. THE- THE. THE
GLOBE WHY A PC REPORT SAID THAT-
WE NEED REMOVING TEN. TEN
BILLION TONS OF CO TWO A YEAR
AFTER THE OUSTER BY TWENTY FIFTY
I BELIEVE THAT'S A NUMBER. OF SO
MY- QUESTION ACTUALLY FROM CARB
IS DESCRIBED CURRENTLY HAVE A
STATE WIDE ROAD MAP. ON HOW TO
SCALE IN ADVANCE CARBON DIOXIDE
REMOVAL THAT IS THAT IS DURABLE.
WITH TOUCHES A LITTLE BIT OF
PREVIOUS HEARING BUT MAYBE YOU
CAN COMMENT ON THAT YEAH HAVE
YOU TO ONCE AGAIN METAL WITH THE
COMPANY RESEARCH BOARD DIVERSITY
FOR THE DISTANCE RUNNERS VISION.
AND TO THINK OF THE OPPORTUNITY
TO SPEAK AND- AS FAR AS A
ROADMAP FOR CARBON DIOXIDE
REMOVAL AND COME CAPTURE
UTILIZATION STRENGTHS. AND
SEQUESTRATION WE INCLUDED IN THE
RECENTLY APPROVED SCOPE PLAN A
NUMBER OF STRATEGIES FOR
ACHIEVING SUCCESS IN THIS SPACE
AND THIS FLOWS FROM THE
MUNICIPAL COMMENTS THAT YOU MADE
IN TERMS OF THE NEED FOR CC USMC
ART BY TWENTY FORTY FIVE G. RICH
EVEN AT ZERO. THE COMMENTS OF
SENATOR DOLLY MADE ABOUT
REMAINING COMBUSTION EMISSIONS
THAT WE EXPECT WILL STILL BE
HERE AT THAT TIME AS WE MAKE
PROGRESS TOWARDS
DECARBONISATION. AND SO THIS
COME THINKING OF PROVIDED THIS
COMPREHENSIVE PICTURE OF WHAT
SOME OF THOSE REMAINING
EMISSIONS WOULD BE WHERE THEY
WORK WHERE THEY WOULD COME FROM
THE NEED FOR C. C. U. S. AND
CITY ARE AND SOME STRATEGIES TO
ACCELERATE THE DEPLOYMENT OF CCS
AND CD I THINK THEY'RE ABOUT
THIRTEEN STRATEGIES THAT WE
INCLUDED IN THE SCOPING PLAN-
SOME OF THOSE THAT WERE ACTUALLY
CAPTURED IN THE LEGISLATION.
IT'S PART OF SB NINE OH FIVE I
DON'T NEED TO GO INTO ALL OF
THOSE BUT THEY INCLUDE THINGS
LIKE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE-
FEDERAL TAX CREDITS IN THE-
GRANT FUNDING FROM THE FOR THE-
THE- I HA HA. AS WELL AS LOOKING
AT AND EVALUATING PERMITTING
BARRIERS AND ADDRESSING CONCERNS
AROUND PIPELINE INFRASTRUCTURE
AND PIPELINE SAFETY. THOSE ARE
SOME OF THE EXAMPLES THAT WE
IDENTIFIED IN THE SCOPING PLAN
THAT THE ADMINISTRATION. IS
INTERESTED IN TAKING ACTION ON.
THE LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE
PUBLIC- FAR. SO AS FAR AT THE
MORE FOR THE C. C. I GUESS
ASSISI'S BEEN- THE WONDERFULLY
DOING THOSE OF THE PROJECT YEAH
AND WELLNESS YOU SEE OF. THAT HI
GOOD MORNING SO- RICK. MIKE
CIRCLE- WITH THE CALIFORNIA
EDUCATION- IN THE CC HAS BEEN
AND- SCOPING PHASE. I'M FOR THIS
PILOT PROJECT FOR THE
ANTICIPATED SEVENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS. I'M INCLUDING HOLDING A
STAFF WORKSHOP ON APRIL
NINETEENTH OF THIS YEAR TO
DISCUSS THE PROPOSED
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR THE
CARBON REMOVAL PROGRAM. I'M
INCLUDING THE PROPOSED BUDGETS
FOR THE MAIN COMPONENTS OF THE
PROGRAM. WHICH ARE DEVELOPING AT
A RESEARCH TEST CENTER TO TEST
AND PILOT DIRECT AIR CAPTURE
TECHNOLOGIES- FOR ANTICIPATED
THIRTY SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS.
PROVIDING A COST SHARE FOR
FEDERAL GRANTS AT FIFTEEN
MILLION DOLLARS. PROVIDING
GRANTS FOR APPLIED RESEARCH AND
DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS FOR TEN
MILLION DOLLARS. PROVIDING
FUNDING FOR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
AND OUTREACH OUT AT FIVE POINT
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS. AND
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND
ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS AT SEVEN
POINT FIVE MILLION DOLLARS- WE
DID RECEIVE A RANGE OF COMMENTS-
RESPONDED TO THE WORKSHOP- WHICH
IS THAT ATTENDEES SUPPORTED A
RESEARCH TEST CENTER THAT WILL
BE DESIGNED TO ADDRESS USER
NEEDS. TO FIND RESEARCH TARGETS
ASSISTANT TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT
AND PROVIDE DATA TRANSPARENCY
WHILE SUPPORTING- REGION
ENGAGEMENT- PROVIDING COST SHARE
TO CALIFORNIA APPLICANTS
APPLYING FOR FEDERAL GRANTS- IS
REALLY NEEDED. AND THE CC IS
ACTUALLY WRITTEN TO- SUPPORT
LETTERS OF FUNDING INTENT FOR
ESTABLISHING DIRECT AIR CAPTURE
HUBS IN CALIFORNIA- IF THE
PROJECTS TO GET FUNDED BY DO YOU
EVEN THE CC WILL PROVIDE FUNDING
AS INDICATED- ONE PROJECT IS
WITH- THE ELECTRIC POWER
RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR THREE
MILLION DOLLARS. ON THAT
INCLUDES AN ENGINEERING DESIGN
STUDY FOR DIRECT AIR CAPTURE HUB
IN KERN COUNTY- AND THIS.
PROJECT IS WITH UC BERKELEY- FOR
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
WHICH IS A FEASIBILITY STUDY. OF
A COMMUNITY CENTER DIRECTOR
CAPTURE HUB IN THE SOUTHERN PART
OF THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY WHICH
INCLUDES COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS
AS WELL- THERE'S ALSO SUPPORT
FOR FUNDING ASSISTANCE FOR
APPLIED RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT. TO ENCOURAGE
CALIFORNIA DEVELOPERS TO TEST
AND DEMONSTRATE PROJECT WITH IN
CALIFORNIA- RATHER THAN GOING TO
OTHER STATES- INFORMATION FROM
THOSE PROJECTS AND HELP INFORM
OTHER STATE REGULATORY AGENCIES
SUCH AS THOSE INVOLVED- IN S. B.
NINE OH FIVE. AND PROVIDE
EDUCATION TO LOCAL COMMUNITIES
ACROSS THE STATE- AND THROUGH
LASTLY THROUGH COMMUNITY
OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT.
INFORMATION TO BE DISSEMINATED
ON THE TECHNOLOGIES DEMONSTRATED
AND TESTED TO IDENTIFY- THE
POTENTIAL BENEFITS TO THE
COMMUNITIES. GREAT WELL THANK
YOU IN SPEAKING SPECIFICALLY TO
THE CHROME REMOVAL PIECE-
THEY'RE GIVEN THAT SUCH A LARGE-
AMOUNT IS GOING TO BE NEEDED. IT
IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE
SEND THE RIGHT MARKET SIGNALS TO
ENTREPRENEURS WHO ARE DEVELOPING
THIS THERE'S GONNA BE A LONG
TERM PROJECTS WILL MARKET. FOR
CARBON REMOVAL THAT WILL SPLIT
THE GUARDRAILS IN PLACE TO MAKE
SURE THAT. UNITIES ARE PROTECTED
SIR- SHE'S BACK TO CORPORATE OR
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS CARBS
ACCOUNTING FOR. SUCH AS EQUITY
COST CONCERNS FOR- BUT OTHER
GUARD ROSE YOU'RE LOOKING AT ARE
THE THINGS THAT COULD. COULD
EITHER HELP- THE B. B. AREAS OR
OR OTHER THINGS THAT COULD
ACTUALLY HELP IMPLEMENT CITY ARE
. THE HOBBIT TO TAKE THAT ONE SO
ADAM. THE AND I THINK IN TERMS
OF WHAT YOU HEARD FROM THE C. C.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE HEARING
FROM ME IS THAT THERE ARE A
NUMBER OF ACTIONS THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION MORE BROADLY IS
TAKING. HIM TO PROVIDE THAT
ENVIRONMENT BY WHICH IS C. C. U.
S. AND CITY ARTICULATED CARBON
DIOXIDE REMOVAL ASIDE WILL BE
SUPPORTED THROUGH THE POINT AND
DEPLOYED HERE IN CALIFORNIA AND
ELSEWHERE AND- WORKED AT THE CC
IS DOING ON THE GRANT FUNDED
PROGRAM AS WELL AS WORK THAT
SCENERY IS DOING AROUND PIPELINE
SAFETY WORK THE CARD HAS TO DO
TO IMPLEMENT SB NINE OH FIVE SET
UP THE NIGHT OF FIVE PROGRAM.
THESE ARE SOME OF THE CRITICAL
ASPECTS THERE'S ALSO AREAS THAT
ARE OUTSIDE OUR OUR MINISTRATION
RESPONSIBILITIES AROUND MAKING
SURE THAT THERE IS A SUPPORT OF
PERMITTING ENVIRONMENTS AND THAT
THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS BEING
DEPLOYED QUICKLY. TO SUPPORT THE
C. C. S. AND C. ARE PROJECTS
THAT ALSO. NEED NEEDS TO MOVE
FORWARD AND SO FOR CARPET THE
FIRST STEP IS REALLY KIND OF
STABBING IS NINE OH FIVE
PROGRAM- AND TO ENSURE THAT WE
HAVE- CD R. AS AN ELIGIBLE
PRODUCT TYPE ON OUR LOW CARBON
FUEL STANDARD AND UNDER CAP AND
TRADE PROGRAMS THESE ARE
ACTIVITIES THAT WILL HELP KIND
OF ENCOURAGING AND SENT THE
DEPLOYMENT OF THESE
TECHNOLOGIES- BUT AS FAR AS- YOU
KNOW. YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT OTHER
CONSIDERATIONS. THERE ARE CERES
ANALYSIS THEIR CALL FOR AN S. B.
NINE OH FIVE AND SO IN TERMS OF
STANDING UP THE PROGRAM
IMPORTANCE OF IT THERE'S
ADDITIONAL ANALYSES AROUND
TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENTS. OF
ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY EXPOSURE
THAT'S WORK THAT WE NEED TO DO
AS PART OF THE NINE TO FIVE THAT
PROCESS. AND SO YOU TO GET OF
FURTHER THAT WORK WE'RE PLANNING
TO DO COMMUNITY MEETINGS LATER
THIS YEAR START GETTING INPUTS
ON- WHAT THE STATE IS DOING TO
ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE THE TOOLS
REQUIRED LIKE COS AND CD R. AND
YOUR CONCERNS AND- AND
POTENTIAL. ADDITIONAL ISSUES AND
BARRIERS TO DEPLOYMENT WE CAN
FOLD INTO THAT NINE TO FIVE
IMPLEMENTATION AND WORK WITH OUR
SISTER AGENCIES LIKE CC THE
PUC'S CENTER AND OTHERS THAT
THAT- HAVE A- JOINT
RESPONSIBILITY ON THIS PROGRAM.
YEAH THIS OF A AGAIN I THINK
NONE OF I WAS REALLY SEE. FOCUS
I WAS REALLY ASK MORE
SPECIFICALLY C. R. IN TERMS OF
ANY OF THOSE- KIND OF GUARD
RAILS OR- THE THINGS THAT YOU
THINK. YOU SEE. SO YOU KNOW IN
TERMS OF A POTENTIAL GUARD RAILS
AND I THINK THIS IS WHERE THAT
PROCESS IS REALLY GONNA BE
HELPFUL TO IDENTIFY ANY CONCERNS
THAT THE- CALIFORNIANS HAVE ON
THE DEPLOYMENT OF CARBON DIOXIDE
REMOVAL. WE HAVE HEARD CONCERNS
AROUND PIPELINE SAFETY WE HAVE
HEARD CONCERNS ARE AT POTENTIAL
ADVERSE IMPACTS FROM THE
DEPLOYMENT OF THE TECHNOLOGY.
WE'RE GONNA THAT WAS THOSE
ISSUES WERE BROUGHT UP AS PART
OF THE SCOPING PLAN PROCESS. I
THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO DO MORE
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ON THE SIDE
WE THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO GET
INTO THE NEXT UPS ON THE
TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENTS
ENCOURAGED ABOUT THE WORK THAT
CC IS DOING. ON THE DEPLOYMENT
THERE SEVENTY FIVE MILLION
BECAUSE I THINK THAT WILL ALSO
HELP ADVANCE THIS CONVERSATION
TO GET A LITTLE BIT MORE
SPECIFIC ABOUT. THE DIFFERENT
OPPORTUNITIES FOR CVR WHETHER
IT'S THINGS LIKE DIRECT AIR
CAPTURE OR- YOU KNOW- BY A
CIVILIZATION STRATEGIES FOR
INSTANCE THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY
START TO GET INTO THAT LEVEL OF
DETAIL ON THE DIFFERENT.
TECHNOLOGIES THERE THE- THE AND
THE CONCERNS AROUND THE
DEPLOYMENT OF THIS. OKAY GREAT
YOU KNOW THE THING IS YOU KNOW
ABOUT THE CITY OUR PATHWAYS OR
OTHER THINGS LOCATED. MOTIONS
AND YEAH YOU KNOW LOTS OF THINGS
THAT ARE NOW BEING- REVENGE
BIRDS WERE LOOKING AT WAYS FOR
DURABLE. AND EQUITABLE CD ARE A
ON- YOU KNOW. CERTAINLY THAT'S
THREE CRITICAL PART OF OUR PATH
TO. TO NET ZERO- SURE HOPE IS
THAT. THIS ADDITIONAL FUNDING
WILL ALLOW CARP TO MOVE FORWARD
ON HOW TO SAFELY EFFECTIVELY AND
EQUITABLY WHILE OUT. A STATE
ROAD MAP FOR CREATING THIS
INDUSTRY AND- THE PLAN IN THE
STATE. SO I'LL MOVE ON- TO MY
LAST AREA. AT WHICH IS THE
TECHNICAL SYSTEMS FOR FEDERAL
TAX CREDITS SO IN THE- IN THE
SENATE MAJORITY PLAN WE PUT
ADDITIONAL DOLLARS IN HERE.
BECAUSE WE KNOW HOW THIS IS A
CRITICAL- TO BOTH MY TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE AND OUTREACH. TO
CALIFORNIA'S TO APPLY FOR
FEDERAL TAX CREDITS. THIS CAN
INCLUDE THINGS LIKE THE UCV
CREDIT THE RESIDENTIAL CLEAN
ENERGY CREDIT. ENERGIES ENERGY
EFFICIENCY ENERGY EFFICIENT HOME
IMPROVEMENT CREDIT CLEAN VEHICLE
CREDIT. SO THE SENATE PLAN
INCLUDES TEN MILLION DOLLARS FOR
THIS THESE PURPOSES- TRULY ONE
OF MY BIG PARTIES IN THE BUDGET
IS SPENT TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE
LEVERAGING FEDERAL DOLLARS. THAT
BY THE REQUIRE MATCHING OR
REQUIRE INDIVIDUALS WERE LOCALS
TO APPLY. I DON'T KNOW THE WHY
THESE PROGRAMS ARE ON CAP TO THE
MORE PEOPLE APPLY FOR THEM- THE
MORE BENEFIT WE GET IS
CALIFORNIANS. AT SO THE B.
VARIOUS CREDITS THAT WE REALLY
NEED TO COURAGE CALIFORNIANS TO
USE SO UP TO THIRTY PERCENT. FOR
UCV. 30% FOR NEW DISTRIBUTED
ENERGY RESOURCES LIKE SOLAR OR
BATTERY STORAGE. WHICH CAN BE
PAIRED WELL WITH EXISTING
CALIFORNIA'S CENTERS. UP TO
THIRTY TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR
ENERGY EFFICIENCY. UPGRADES
HOWEVER THESE REQUIRE
CALIFORNIA'S BOTH KNOW ABOUT
THESE. AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S
SIMPLE TO APPLY. SO BROADLY CC
WITH DIGITAL FUNDING TO CREATE
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE. AND A PAIR
THIS WITH A DIRECT INSTALL
PROGRAM COULD SUPPORT THE USE OF
THESE. THESE PRESIDENTIAL FOR
MYSELF WHEN I PUT AN ELECTRIC.
HEAT PUMP AND PUT IT UP WITH
YOUR HOT WATER HEATER- IT WAS
DISTURBING MUSIC HOW TO ACCESS
THESE CREDITS. THE PEOPLE CALL
BACK TO VERIFY IT AND YOU KNOW
TO AUDIT STUDENT- ALLOW YOU TO
ACTUALLY GET INTO THE CREDITS-
SO START OUT WITH THAT THE CCCC
OF ANY. UPDATE ON ITS EFFORTS TO
GET THE DIRECT INSTALL PROGRAM.
UP AND HELLO HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO
INTEGRATE. FEDERAL TAX CREDITS
IN THAT PROGRAM. GOOD AFTERNOON
JEANETTE CARILLO AGAIN WITH THE
CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION. I
SHARED A LITTLE EARLIER ABOUT
WHERE WE WERE ON GETTING THE
DIRECT INSTALLATION PROGRAM UP
AND JUST A REMINDER THAT THAT
PROGRAM IS FOCUSED ON LOW INCOME
CALIFORNIANS. AND SO WELL I-
APPRECIATE AND SHARE THAT THE
INTEREST IN LEVERAGING THE TAX
CREDITS AND INVESTMENTS-
SPECIFICALLY THE ENERGY
EFFICIENT HOME IMPROVEMENT
CREDIT. AND APPLIES TO
HOMEOWNERS HAVE A TAX LIABILITY
SO AS WE FOCUS ON TARGETING THIS
PROGRAM TO BOTH TENANTS AND
INCOME CALIFORNIANS IT'S NOT THE
BEST FIT. WE ARE STILL WAITING
TO HEAR FROM THE IRS ON WHETHER
THIS TAX CREDIT CAN BE
ASSIGNABLE SO THAT WE CAN WE CAN
POTENTIALLY LEVERAGE THE DOLLARS
OR COULD POTENTIALLY BE CASHED
OUT. SO FAR I AT THE IRS HAS NOT
IDENTIFIED- THE FLEXIBILITY IN
THAT AREA ARE PROVIDED ANY
SPECIFIC GUIDANCE. I WOULD LIKE
TO SHARE THAT AS WE ARE OUT IN
THE COMMUNITIES ON THE DIRECT
INSTALLATION PROGRAM FOR
EQUITABLE NDT CARB WE WILL BE
LOOKING TO LEVERAGE ALL
PROGRAMS- WHETHER THOSE BE LOCAL
UTILITY STATE OR FEDERAL AND
THAT IS PART OF OUR
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. SERDANG SO
I JUST WANT TO FOLLOW UP
BASICALLY. WE WOULD BE BETTER
OFF TO JUST DO A DIRECT GRANT.
TO BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO FILE. IF
THEY DON'T FILE IF THEY'RE IF
THEY'RE LOW IF THEY'RE LOW
INCOME THEY'RE PROBABLY NOT
PAYING THAT HIGH THEY'RE NOT
GETTING MUCH OF A REBATE IS WHAT
YOU'RE BASICALLY SAYING. RIGHT
SO IF WE DO IF WE GAVE IT TO
RACK. GRANT TO THEM WE WOULD
PROBABLY BE ABLE TO SERVE THOSE
THOSE DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES
EVEN BETTER. I'M WHAT I'M
POINTING OUT IS THE SPECIFIC
QUESTION OF HOW THE INCOME TAX
CREDITS CAN BE LEVERAGED WITH
THE DIRECT INSTALLATION THAT
ISN'T THE BEST MATCH. BECAUSE
THERE IS NO THERE THERE IS NOT
THAT TAX LIABILITY FOR OUR LOW
INCOME RIGHT THAT'S WHAT I MEAN
SO YOU CAN IF YOU DON'T. RECEIVE
ANYTHING BACK THERE'S NO YOU.
THAT THERE'S NO. THE CREDIT
DOESN'T DO ANY GOOD BUT IF A
DIRECT GRANT TO ACTUALLY PUT
THE- PUT THE HEAT PUMP IN OR THE
LACK CREEK WATER HEATER WOULD BE
ACTUALLY HELP THOSE LOW INCOME
PEOPLE BETTER. EXACTLY SENATOR
AND THAT IS WHAT THE DIRECT
INSTALLATION PROGRAM IS IT IS A-
GREAT. FUNDED OUT NOT THAT'S NOT
FEDERAL THAT STATE THAT IS BY
STATE PROGRAM THAT WAS-
AUTHORIZED LAST YEAR AND I WILL
LOOK AT MY DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
COLLEAGUES ON OUR CURRENT
NUMBERS ON THAT PROGRAM WITH.
THE JANUARY MAY REVISE. ON THERE
THERE WAS A SUGGESTED DEFERMENT
OF FUNDS I BELIEVE- IN THE
FUTURE BUDGET YEARS BECAUSE THIS
ONE IS A LITTLE MORE-
ADMINISTRATIVE SO TO SPEAK AND
ROLLING OUT THE PROGRAM SO WE
WERE ABLE TO DEFER SOME COSTS
THAT WE EXPECTED. THIS BUDGET
YEAR FOR FUTURE YEARS. AND AS I
UNDERSTAND IT THE SENATE'S PLAN-
IS PROPOSING AT A DEEPER
INVESTMENT IN THE FUND- IT'S A
REGULAR PART OF WHITE AS WE
MIGHT HAVE TO GET BACK TO YOU ON
THAT SPECIFIC NUMBERS THAT IS
INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET. AND WHAT
WOULD IT WOULD ALSO BE NICE TO
KNOW I DON'T KNOW WHO WOULD
ANSWER THIS BUT- YOU KNOW HOW
MANY PEOPLE ACTUALLY ACCESS IT
BECAUSE- THIS IS AN AREA WHERE
WE REALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
IN MY MIND- I THINK IT'S BE A
BETTER PLACE HAS BEEN MONEY THAN
IT IS ON OBVIOUSLY THINGS I.
THINK ARE WAY TOO HIGH LIKE TO
TRAIN BUT- I DAVID EVANS WITH
THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE- THAT
NUMBER IS EIGHT. EIGHT HUNDRED
THIRTY FIVE MILLION. BUT I
PROGRAM FOR IT'S IN A DIRECT
GRANT. IT'S A IT'S A DIRECT
INSTALLATION PROGRAM SO WE WILL
BE COMPENSATING FOR- OUR
CONTRACTORS TO COME AND KNOCK ON
DOORS AND HELP PEOPLE WITH THEIR
INDOOR. I'M IN THEIR PLANS IS
FOR BUT THEIR ENERGY LOAD COSTS
IN AND AROUND QUALITY. YES AND
THAT'S IT'S TARGETED TOWARDS.
VERY LOW AND THERE THERE'S A
CRITERIA TO MEET THAT CRACKS
ARE. PERFECT THANK- I AND
JUSTICE WENT ONE THING TO ADD ON
ON THAT- CIRCUIT WITH THE L. A.
O. THE EIGHT HUNDRED AND THIRTY
FIVE- PROPOSED IN THE IN THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET ASSUMES- BUT-
A DELAY. OF FOR IT FOR THE
PROGRAM SO THE ORIGINAL-
PROPOSED AMOUNT. FOR THAT
PROGRAM IS NINE HUNDRED AND
TWENTY TWO. MILLION OKAY THANK
YOU. THAT'S RESTORED IN THE
SENATE PLAN CORRECT. I BELIEVE
SO YES. GRAB ONE. I HAVE A THAT
IS. A COUPLE OF THE QUESTIONS
FOR DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE- HOUSE
ADMINISTRATION BUT IDENTIFYING
PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS.
YEAH AND ORPHALI AND TO BE TO
SUPPORT. THE INDIVIDUAL PROGRAM
APPLICATIONS AND ANY LESSONS
LEARNED THERE. YES SIR DROUGHT
FOR A FINANCE- OUR PUBLIC
PRIVATE PARTS THAT THEY WILL
HAVE TO KIND OF GET GET BACK TO
YOU ON ON THAT QUESTION I KNOW
THERE WAS NO QUESTION ON TAX
CREDITS WHICH WHICH WE COULD
KIND OF SPEAK TO BROADLY ON.
KIND OF WHAT THE MINISTRATION
HAS BEEN DOING TRY TO LEVERAGE
ALL ALL THAT- ON ON THE FEDERAL
SPACE BUT- GENERALLY YOU KNOW
THERE'S THAT THE TO SET THE TAX
CREDITS- THE CONSUMERS AND THEN
THOSE I GO DIRECTLY TO
BUSINESSES AND ON THE CONSUMER
SIDE- YOU KNOW THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE RECENTLY LOST THE-
CLIMATE ACTION DOT CA DOT GOV-
WHICH HELPS PROVIDE. A
SIGNIFICANT MINOR FORMATION ON
BOTH THE STATE AND FEDERAL
FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES INCLUDING
ALL THOSE THAT ARE TAX CREDIT I
JUST RECENTLY CAME OUT AND
ADMINISTRATION IS DOING- KIND OF
BIG EFFORT TO GET THE WORD OUT
THERE- AND YOU PROVIDE ALL THE
INFORMATION NECESSARY TO BE ABLE
TO- HAVE CONSUMERS- APPLY. FOR
THOSE TAX RATES- AS THEY'RE
ELIGIBLE- KIND OF ON THE ON THE
ENERGY SIDE IN TERMS OF SOLAR-
YOU KNOW TURN THE KINDA LIKE TAX
INCENTIVES- CPC- DOES PLAY PLAY
SOME ROLE. AND REQUIRING SOLAR
PROVIDERS TO DISTRIBUTE ADD TO
THAT CUSTOMERS SIGN. A A
GUIDEBOOK AND THAT'S PART OF
THAT GUIDE BOOK- YOU KNOW WE'RE
NOW UPDATING THAT INCLUDE. ALL
OF THE INFORMATION FOR THE TAX
CREDIT SO- YOU KNOW THE
CONSUMERS THAT ARE. GETTING
OLDER WILL NOW BE ABLE TO HAVE
ALL THE INFORMATION TO BE ABLE
TO APPLY TO ALL THE- TAX
CREDITS- AND THEN ALSO- YOU KNOW
THE UTILITY THROUGH THEIR-
MARKETING EFFORTS THEY THEY ALSO
CAN PROVIDE INFORMATION TO
THEIR- CUSTOMERS ON ON ALL THOSE
AVAILABLE- DOLLARS. AND THEN I
THINK TO THE- THE VINCE IS WHICH
I THINK IS GOING TO GET MORE TO
THE PARTNERSHIPS I KNOW GO BIZ.
IS DOING A LOT OF EFFORT IN THIS
AREA WORKING WITH A LOT OF IS
THIS THE- YOU KNOW TRY TO.
PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION AND
ENGAGE IN PARTNERSHIPS TO BE
ABLE TO- HELP HAVE THEM APPLY TO
THE DIFFERENT FEDERAL- TAX
CREDITS AND FEDERAL GRANTS. AND
MRS DO TEND TO BE A LOT MORE-
YOU KNOW KNOWLEDGEABLE ON ALL
THOSE OPPORTUNITIES MORE THAN.
CUSTOMERS WHICH IS WHY YOU KNOW
WE HAVE MAY A CONCERTED ON OUR
THE CUSTOMER SIDE. OF I THINK OF
YOU KNOW GOBIZ EFFORTS IS ALSO
TO. HELP THE CONNECT THOSE
BUSINESSES AND CREATE THOSE
PARTNERSHIPS TO BE ABLE TO
LEVERAGE AS MUCH OF THE FEDERAL
FUNDING IF POSSIBLE. I'M HELPFUL
BUT I AM. ON THE TAX CREDIT SIDE
I GUESS. ANY OTHER SPECIFICS-
I'M I'M SICK OF THE THERE'S A
WEBSITE AND SINCE AGO BUSY DOING
SOME SPECIFIC- SPECIFIC
COMMERCIAL OUR REACH. AND AGAIN
THE REASON. THIS IS IMPORTANT IS
THAT AGAIN THESE ARE ON CAPS OF
10% OF AMERICANS APPLY I WOULD
CALIFORNIA'S APPLY. THAT'S WILL
GET 10% OF 50% OF LIFE. 50% LOOK
AT THOSE BENEFITS SO IT'S REALLY
IMPORTANT THAT WE- GET THE
INFORMATION OUT TO ANY OTHER
SPECIFICS ON OUT REACH THAT YOU
CAN. RIGHT US ALL WE SURE AT THE
TIME OF FORTUNATE WE DON'T HAVE
EVIDENCE FOR GO BIZ OR OR PCS
BEGIN MORE DETAIL ABOUT WHAT
THEY'RE DOING. OF IT THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE AWARE OF THE THEIR CURRENT
EFFORTS OKAY. WE'LL GET EVEN IT
WAS USED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT.
WE BATES AND CAN BE COMPLEX AND
CAN BE CONFUSING- A ON. YOU KNOW
WE'RE TALKING A LOT MORE NOW
REBATES AND TAX INCENTIVES. FOR
BUILDING DECARBONIZATION FOR
EV'S FOR EVEN INFRASTRUCTURE FOR
OTHER WEATHER ATION PROJECTS.
AND I THINK THAT'S WHY. IT'S
IMPORTANT THAT THE SENATE PLAN
HAS ALLOCATED THIS ADDITIONAL
MONEY TO THE CC FOR THAT KIND OF
OUTREACH. BEYOND- TO LET PEOPLE
KNOW ABOUT STACKING
OPPORTUNITIES WITH THE DIRECT
INSTALL. THE PROGRAM AND BEGIN
ALL ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO
MAKE SURE THAT MORE.
CALIFORNIANS ARE WHERE THESE
PROGRAMS AND TAKE ADVANTAGE
THESE PROGRAMS BECAUSE THEY ARE
TIME LIMITED. AND I TOOK A
COMMERCIAL. TIME LIMIT. WHY NOW-
BUT WE REALLY DO HAVE TO DO A
LOT EDUCATION HERE TO MAKE SURE
WE MAXIMIZES SO. I APPRECIATE
THAT. WITH THAT I DON'T ANY
OTHER SPECIFIC QUESTIONS I
DIDN'T WANT TO NOTE THE SUBURBS
THIS RARE QUALITY MANAGEMENT
DISTRICTS HERE. THAT AS FOLKS

GAS REDUCTION FUND PROPOSAL THAT
HAS BEEN. PRESENTED TODAY. AS
YOU KNOW TRANSPORTATION ACCOUNTS
FOR ABOUT HALF OF CALIFORNIA'S
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS WHEN
YOU CONSIDER UPSTREAM EMISSIONS

80% OF OUR SMOG AND SOOT SO IT'S
APPROPRIATE TO REALLY FOCUS ON
TRANSPORTATION- WITH THESE
INVESTMENTS. THE SEVEN SENATORS
THAT YOU PROPOSE FOR BOTH
VEHICLES AND INFRASTRUCTURE WILL
SUPPORT A NUMBER OF REGULATIONS.
THAT ARE IN PLACE SO IT'S A GOOD
IDEA THAT YOU'RE PROVIDING SOME
CARROTS TO GO WITH THE STICKS.

PROPERLY FOCUSED ON REDUCING
EMISSIONS FROM HEAVY DUTY
VEHICLES WHICH ARE
DISPROPORTIONATELY EXPOSING OUR
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES TO
TOXIC DIESEL EXHAUST. AND ALSO
FOCUSED ON WHEN IT COMES TO
LIGHT DUTY ON EQUITY IN
TRANSPORTATION SO I THINK WE'VE
ALREADY DONE ENOUGH TO HELP
PEOPLE OF MEANS. TO AFFORD EV'S
YOU KNOW THE MARKET NOW WILL
SUSTAIN THAT. WE NEED TO HELP
PEOPLE WITH LESSER MEANS TO BE
ABLE TO MAKE THAT TRANSITION TO
ZERO EMISSION TRANSPORTATION AND

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH RESOURCES
TO SUPPORT THEM. FURTHER THE
SOUTH COAST REGION CONTAINS
ALMOST TWO THIRDS OF
ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
COMMUNITIES IN THE STATE BUT WE
CANNOT ADD NEW EIGHTY SIX
SEVENTEEN COMMUNITIES DUE TO A
LACK OF RESOURCES. TO ADDRESSES
RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT IF YOU

CONSIDER ADDITIONAL ESTIMATES
ARE INVESTMENTS AND THAT'S WHERE
