Background:

California state law (Senate Bill 375 (SB 375), Statutes of 2008) requires the California Air Resources Board (ARB) to set regional targets for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from passenger vehicles, for 2020 and 2035. If regions develop integrated land use, housing and transportation plans that meet the SB 375 targets, new projects in these regions can be relieved of certain review requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act. The targets apply to the regions in the State covered by the 18 metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs).

Per SB 375, the Board appointed a Regional Targets Advisory Committee (RTAC) on January 23, 2009 to provide recommendations on factors to be considered and methodologies to be used in ARB's target setting process. The RTAC is required to provide its recommendations in a report to ARB by September 30, 2009. ARB must propose draft targets by June 10, 2010, and adopt final targets by September 30, 2010.

For more information on the SB 375 requirements and SCAG's planning and outreach efforts to create both regional and subregional "Sustainable Community Strategies" (SCS) to attain the proposed reduction targets, please visit www.scag.ca.gov/sb375.
