Would have required CARB to update regional greenhouse gas (GHG) targets indefinitely, rather than only until 2050 and authorized CARB to update the years to which those targets apply. The bill would have required a metropolitan planning organization, prior to adopting amendments to a regional transportation plan that could impact a Sustainable Communities Strategy, to quantify the reduction in GHG emissions and difference due to the amendments. This bill would have also updated the Sustainable Communities Strategy review process for CARB and metropolitan planning organizations, among other provisions. Was not heard in the Senate Transportation Committee.
