ARB’s Scoping Plan
Update
04/07/14 Filed in: Climate
Change
The CA Air Resources
Board (ARB) is updating the 2008 Scoping Plan, which
laid out the State’s plan to reduce greenhouse gases
(GHGs) which cause global climate change. TRANSDEF
filed its comments, which stress the need for
clarity as to the contribution of the economic
recession and higher gasoline prices to the
state’s reduced GHG emissions in the past 6 years.
The comments call for ARB to remove HSR as a GHG
emissions reduction measure, given that it is
projected to increase GHGs for decades.
