Low-carbon fuel standard: regulations.
- Voids recent amendments to California's Low-Carbon Fuel Standard regulations adopted in November 2024.
- Reverts fuel emission standards to their previous regulatory requirements.
- Requires the Air Resources Board to immediately halt enforcement of the 2024 amendments.
Assembly Members Wallis, Gallagher, and Patterson propose nullifying recent amendments to California's Low-Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) regulations through legislation that would void changes adopted by the California Air Resources Board in November 2024. The bill targets specific regulatory updates affecting fuel producers, importers, and distributors under the state's greenhouse gas reduction framework.
The legislation adds a new section to California's Health and Safety Code that would invalidate modifications to over 30 sections of the LCFS regulations, which operate under the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. This act requires the Air Resources Board to implement rules reducing statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 40% below specified limits by 2030. The bill would revert these regulations to their previous form before the November 2024 amendments.
Organizations currently subject to LCFS requirements would need to adjust their compliance approaches if the regulations return to their prior state. The Air Resources Board would maintain its authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions but would need to operate under the previous regulatory framework rather than the amended version from late 2024.
