AB 3111

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law establishes the Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program, which is administered by the State Air Resources Board. The program authorizes the state board to provide grants to offset the incremental cost of eligible projects that reduce emissions from covered vehicular sources. The program also authorizes funding for a fueling infrastructure demonstration program and for technology development efforts that are expected to result in commercially available technologies in the near-term that would improve the ability of the program to achieve its goals. Existing law authorizes the state board to delegate to an air quality management district or air pollution control district the administration of the program. This bill would require the state board, by January 1, 2022, to adopt an online application process for the submission of grant applications under the program. The bill would require the state board and air districts administering the program to use the online application process. The bill would require the state board, by January 1, 2022, to review the program and to submit to the Legislature a report on the review containing certain information. The bill would prohibit the state board from adopting or amending regulations making changes to the program until it has submitted the report.
