Why California?

I. California Overview
Significant Market Opportunity for Additional Industrial Emission Controls
Largest State Economy• $2.448 Trillion• 13% of US GDP
Largest Manufacturer in US• $256 Billion (California)• $238 Billion (Texas)• $ 98 Billion (Ohio)
AB 617 may become the model for driving industrial emission reductions in non-attainment areas around the nation
• Long history of 1st in the nation air policies/regulation—Other jurisdictions follow
• >100M Americans still live in non-attainment areas (nearly 35 million live in CA)
• Ports and industrial centers will be the focus for future CAA attainment efforts nationwide

A POLICY LEADER AN ECONOMIC LEADER
Why California?
7
I. California Overview
An Economic Leader
In 2010, California ranked 1st in the U.S. in number of Manufacturing
plants, with 37,937 establishments.
California Clean Air Initiatives Have a Strong History of Being Adopted Elsewhere
I. California Overview
8
Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) standards
Low Carbon Fuel Standard
- Adopted in California in 2009, and was adopted in Oregon (2009), British Columbia (2010), and Washington (2012)
NOx Emissions
- RECLAIM program established in 1993 to reduce NOx emissions from 400 sources in SQAQMD by 40%, by 1999 NOx trading established in 12 Northeast/Mid-Atlantic states and Texas
- California adopts clean fuel and Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) standards in 1990, and – in 1994 – by the US EPA
Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) standards
Smog Check Program
- California implements vehicle smog check program in 1988 – included in the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments as “inspection and maintenance” program, required in a dozen states in 1994
California has a Unique Air Regulatory Structure
9
I. California Overview
EPA
• Sets nationwide air quality and emissions standards
• Oversees state efforts and enforcement
• Must adopt either EPA or CA vehicle emission standards
State Environmental Agency
• Identifies emission sources
• Implements emission control actions needed to satisfy federal requirements
California Air Resources Board
• Independent, appointed Board
• Focused on unique air quality
challenges
• Sets stricter emissions standards for
range of sources
• Operates nation’s most extensive air
monitoring network
• Studies the costs and benefits of pollution controls
Air Pollution Control Districts
• 35 Local Air Pollution Control Districts
• Directly regulates emissions from
businesses and stationary facilities

II. Interagency Refinery Task Force
10
History of the CARB/CAPCOA Interagency Refinery Task Force
August 2012
There was fire at Chevron refinery in Richmond, CA
August 2013
California created the Interagency Refinery Task Force (IRTF) charged with evaluating opportunities for reducing risks
May 2015
IRTF issued the first Refinery Emergency Air Monitoring Assessment Report to inventory air monitoring capabilities
September 2017
IRTF issued the second Refinery Emergency Air Monitoring Assessment Report (Draft) that expands on findings of earlier report and now includes routine monitoring
o New monitoring requirements for enhanced fence line and community monitoring in the vicinity of major stationary sources such as refineries
o New emission requirements
o Focus on reducing emission risks for surrounding community
II. Interagency Refinery Task Force
11
IRTF’s Emergency Air Monitoring Assessment Report (Draft) Recommendations include:
Air Monitoring Technology• Expand monitoring locations:
• In the refinery• at fence line • in nearby communities
• Monitoring for compounds, including: Hydrogen sulfide, Sulfur dioxide, PM, VOCs, NOx
II. Interagency Refinery Task Force
12
Modeling
• Improve techniques to better predict impacts of pollution
Communication and Coordination
• Provide real-time information
• Improve state and local coordination through interagency monitoring working group
Also includes
Air Monitoring Recommendations
Refineries and Response Agencies Should:
• Expand the use of personal air monitors and handheld devices with real-time telemetry
• Expand site-appropriate process unit monitoring, ground level monitoring and fence line monitoring – all transmitting real-time data for notification and evaluation
Districts Should:
• Establish enhanced, site appropriate community monitoring systems, including fixed, mobile and community-based sensors
• Demonstrate and require appropriate deployment of new technologies and systems, such as optical remote sensing (ORS), sensor networks and other real-time instrument capabilities
II. Interagency Refinery Task Force
13
Key Takeaways from Air Monitoring Report
• Refineries, air districts, local response agencies and the State of California will need to purchase and deploy additional monitoring equipment
• All will need to maintain and operate expanded monitoring networks
• Additional emission control requirements TBD
• The refinery monitoring report will be a resource as State and air districts begin to carry out AB 617

III. AB 617 – Community Air Protection Program
Nonvehicular air pollution: criteria air pollutants and toxic air contaminants
15
The California Politics of AB 617
• Signed into law July, 2017
• Part of a broader deal to extend the cap-and-trade program
• Goal to improve air quality in most polluted areas in California
Political Backstory
• The environmental community has long been divided on the issue of whether a GHG cap-and-trade program can lead to localized increases in conventional pollutants in nonattainment areas
• Environmental Justice community (and Latino Caucus) would not have supported re-adoption of cap-and-trade program without AB 617
• Gov. Jerry Brown was committed to securing cap-and-trade as part of his legacy
