California AB 2432

Existing law imposes various limitations on emissions of air contaminants for the control of air pollution from vehicular and nonvehicular sources. Existing law designates the State Air Resources Board as the state agency with the primary responsibility for the control of vehicular air pollution and as the state agency responsible for monitoring and regulating sources emitting greenhouse gases. Existing law requires the state board to adopt standards, rules, and regulations necessary for the proper execution of the powers and duties granted to, and imposed upon, the state board. This bill would require the state board, when it revises, adopts, or establishes any policy, standard, rule, or regulation that would have a direct financial impact on drivers in the state, to consider the financial burden on drivers, and to prepare a thorough analysis and evaluation of the financial impact of the proposed action on drivers to ensure full transparency.
