LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGESTSB 216, as introduced, Galgiani. Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program: used heavy-duty truck exchange.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.This bill would add as an eligible project under the program a used heavy-duty truck exchange, as specified.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY  Appropriation: NO  Fiscal Committee: YES  Local Program: NO Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) The state needs viable, cost-effective clean energy and transportation solutions for reducing emissions from methane, greenhouse gas, and oxides of nitrogen, which together significantly contribute to climate change and poor air quality and impact the health of communities throughout the state.(b) While it is important to displace the demand for conventional petroleum-based fuels, the Legislature also believes that helping to spur the development and deployment of innovative next-generation fuel technologies by California-based companies is an important contribution the state can and should make to facilitate urgently needed, immediate, emissions reductions here and around the world.(c) State-run vehicle exchange programs are critical to promoting fleet conversions necessary to accelerate emissions reductions in the transportation sector.(d) Newer next-generation low-carbon fuels have the potential to offer significant climate and air quality benefits and, thus, the state should provide a similar level of focus and support for these innovative low-carbon fuels as has been spent over the years on first generation low-carbon fuels and battery electric mobility.SEC. 2. Section 44281 of the Health and Safety Code, as amended by Section 8 of Chapter 610 of the Statutes of 2015, is amended to read:44281. (a) Eligible projects include, but are not limited to, any of the following:(1) Purchase of new very low or zero-emission covered vehicles or covered heavy-duty engines.(2) Emission-reducing retrofit of covered engines, or replacement of old engines powering covered sources with newer engines certified to more stringent emissions standards than the engine being replaced, or with electric motors or drives.(3) Purchase and use of emission-reducing add-on equipment that has been verified by the state board for covered vehicles.(4) Development and demonstration of practical, low-emission retrofit technologies, repower options, and advanced technologies for covered engines and vehicles with very low emissions of NOx.(5) Light- and medium-duty vehicle projects in compliance with guidelines adopted by the state board pursuant to Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations.(6) A used heavy-duty truck exchange that meets all of the following:(A) Allows small fleets to partner with larger fleets in a single application.(B) Allows vehicles purchased through a nondirect transaction to meet scrappage requirements pursuant to Division 3 (commencing with Section 1900) of Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations.(C) Requires vehicles purchased to remain in the state after their useful life.(D) Defines small fleet to mean five or less vehicles and larger fleet to mean six or more vehicles.(b) No project shall be funded under this chapter after the compliance date required by any local, state, or federal statute, rule, regulation, memoranda of agreement or understanding, or other legally binding document, except that an otherwise qualified project may be funded even if the state implementation plan assumes that the change in equipment, vehicles, or operations will occur, if the change is not required by the compliance date of a statute, regulation, or other legally binding document in effect as of the date the grant is awarded. No project funded by the program shall be used for credit under any state or federal emissions averaging, banking, or trading program. No covered emission reduction generated by the program shall be used as marketable emission reduction credits or to offset any emission reduction obligation of any person or entity. Projects involving new engines that would otherwise generate marketable credits under state or federal averaging, banking, and trading programs shall include transfer of credits to the engine end user and retirement of those credits toward reducing air emissions in order to qualify for funding under the program. A purchase of a low-emission vehicle or of equipment pursuant to a corporate or a controlling boards policy, but not otherwise required by law, shall generate surplus emissions reductions and may be funded by the program.(c) The program may also provide funding toward the installation of fueling or energy infrastructure to fuel or power covered sources.(d) Eligible applicants may be any individual, company, or public agency that owns one or more covered vehicles that operate primarily within California or otherwise contribute substantially to the NOx, particulate matter (PM), or reactive organic gas (ROG) emissions inventory in California.(e) It is the intent of the Legislature that all emission reductions generated by this chapter shall contribute to public health by reducing, for the life of the vehicle being funded, the total amount of emissions in California.(f) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2024, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2024, deletes or extends that date.SEC. 3.

(b) No project shall be funded under this chapter after the compliance date required by any local, state, or federal statute, rule, regulation, memoranda of agreement or understanding, or other legally binding document, except that an otherwise qualified project may be funded even if the state implementation plan assumes that the change in equipment, vehicles, or operations will occur, if the change is not required by the compliance date of a statute, regulation, or other legally binding document in effect as of the date the grant is awarded. No project funded by the program shall be used for credit under any state or federal emissions averaging, banking, or trading program.

A purchase of a low-emission vehicle or of equipment pursuant to a corporate or a controlling boards policy, but not otherwise required by law, shall generate surplus emissions reductions and may be funded by the program.

(c) The program may also provide funding toward the installation of fueling or energy infrastructure to fuel or power covered sources.

(d) Eligible applicants may be any individual, company, or public agency that owns one or more covered vehicles that operate primarily within California or otherwise contribute substantially to the NOx, particulate matter (PM), or reactive organic gas (ROG) emissions inventory in California.

(e) It is the intent of the Legislature that all emission reductions generated by this chapter shall contribute to public health by reducing, for the life of the vehicle being funded, the total amount of emissions in California.

(f) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2024, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2024, deletes or extends that date.
