Personal income taxes: Disaster Victim Assistance Voluntary Tax Contribution Fund. Vehicular air pollution: regulations: exemption.Existing law imposes various limitations on the emissions of air contaminants for the control of air pollution from vehicular and nonvehicular sources. Pursuant to that authority, the State Air Resources Board has adopted a regulation to significantly reduce emissions of particulate matter, oxides of nitrogen, and other criteria air pollutants from existing diesel trucks and buses operating in the state, commonly known as the Truck and Bus Regulation.This bill would require the state board to exempt vehicles that do not exceed 5,000 miles annually and low-mileage agricultural vehicles, as defined, that meet certain requirements from any regulation to reduce emissions of diesel particulate matter, oxides of nitrogen, and other criteria air pollutants from in-use, diesel-fueled vehicles.Existing law authorizes an individual to contribute amounts in excess of his or her tax liability for the support of specified funds. Under existing law, there are general administrative provisions applicable to these voluntary contributions, which, among other things, provide for the disbursement of contributions following repeal of the fund provisions and require undesignated funds to be transferred to the General Fund.Existing law also provides that when establishing these voluntary tax contribution funds the words voluntary tax contribution be included in the name of the fund, that the administering agency comply with specified Internet Web site reporting requirements, that the fund provisions remain in effect only until January 1 of the 7th calendar year following the first appearance of the voluntary tax contribution on the personal income tax return, that the required calendar year minimum contribution amount for the fund to continue appearing on the return is $250,000, and that the contributions be continuously appropriated from the fund to the administering entity.This bill, beginning in 2018, would allow an individual to designate on his or her tax return that a specified amount in excess of his or her tax liability be transferred to the Disaster Victim Assistance Voluntary Tax Contribution Fund, which would be created by this bill. The bill would conform with those aforementioned requirements by continuously appropriating those funds to the Franchise Tax Board and the Controller in connection with their duties pursuant to these provisions and to the Office of Emergency Services for distribution to specified nonprofit organizations to only assist victims of natural disasters in the United States, providing that the fund provisions remain in effect only until January 1, 2025, and repealing the provisions as of that date, unless earlier repealed because annual contributions to the fund do not equal or exceed an unadjusted $250,000 minimum contribution amount, and requiring the Office of Emergency Services to comply with those Internet Web site reporting requirements.
