The Air Resources Board (ARB) announces the release of the Climate Change Proposed Scoping Plan.

This plan is a key step in the implementation of AB 32, the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. AB 32 requires ARB to prepare and adopt a Scoping Plan that provides strategies to reduce GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. ARB must approve the Plan no later than January 1, 2009.

In June the Air Resources Board released a draft plan. The proposed plan released today reflects additional analysis, expertise, and public input that ARB has received over the past several months.

The Proposed Scoping Plan will go to the California Air Resources Board for consideration in December 2008.
