Consultation Group Draft Charter
CARB is committed to ensuring that the Consultation Group is supported and operates openly and transparently. The Consultation Group Draft Charter provides transparency about the advisory body’s purpose, role, and the group functions.
Consultation Group Members and their alternates are required to comply with the CARB Advisory Committee Transparency Requirements.
The Consultation Group is subject to the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act (Gov. Code § 11120 et seq.) For all meetings of a quorum (majority) of Consultation Group members, CARB will issue a notice of agenda items released 10 days in advance of the meeting. The public must be allowed to attend and given an opportunity to comment on agenda items. CARB and the Consultation Group must meet all other procedural requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meetings Act.
The Consultation Group may meet up to 3 times annually, at the CalEPA Headquarters building in Sacramento or the CARB Headquarters Building in Riverside. Meeting formats may be in-person, or hybrid. Under current law all Consultation Group members may appear virtually subject to the requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meetings Act.
