Background Information
To
facilitate the development of measures to reduce dairy and livestock emissions,
SB 1383 (Lara, Chapter 395, Statutes of 2016) requires CARB to work with a
broad range of stakeholders to identify and address technical, market,
regulatory, and other challenges and barriers to the development of dairy
methane emission reduction projects. In response, CARB worked with the
California Department of Food and Agriculture, the California Energy
Commission, and the California Public Utilities Commission to convene a Dairy
and Livestock Working Group. The Working Group held a kick-off meeting on
May 23, 2017, where three subgroups were formed to develop policy
recommendations in the following areas:
- Subgroup #1: Fostering markets for non-digester
projects
- Subgroup #2: Fostering markets for digester
projects
- Subgroup #3: Research needs, including enteric
fermentation
Additional information of the January 5, 2018, meeting will be added to
the website when available.
