The California Air Resources Board will hold a virtual public workshop where staff will present a draft framework for a fee regulation, as authorized by Health and Safety Code § 38532 and 38533. The workshop will also draft definitions needed for determining covered entities, such as “revenue”, “doing business in California”, and “parent-subsidiary” relationships. These definitions are relevant to implementing the statutes, which require first reports due in 2026, as they will inform which companies will be subject to reporting. Staff will also provide updates on the regulatory development timeline, considerations for assurance requirements under the California Corporate Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, take input on proposed minimum reporting requirements related to Health & Safety Code § 38533, and discuss phasing in details for Scope 3 emissions in relation to the largest sectors of emissions.
