at 9:00 a.m., October 25, 2018, and may continue at 8:30 a.m., on October 26, 2018. Please consult the agenda for the hearing, which will be
available at least ten days before October 25, 2018, to determine the day

Background
Staff is proposing amendments to the Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions to ensure that reported greenhouse gas (GHG) data are accurate and fully support the California Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Market Based Compliance Mechanisms (title 17, California Code of Regulations, section 95800 et seq.) (Cap-and-Trade Regulation) and other GHG programs. The proposed changes clarify the reporting requirements necessary for submittal of complete and accurate emissions data reports, and add or clarify data elements for emissions and product data reporting necessary to support the Cap-and-Trade Regulation. The proposed changes also include amendments to ensure accurate accounting of emissions from imported electricity resulting from transfers within the California Independent System Operator’s (CAISO) Energy Imbalance Market (EIM).
Inquiries

the agency representative Syd Partridge, Manager, Climate Change Reporting Section, at (916) 445-4292, or Ryan Schauland, Manager, Emissions Data Quality Assurance Section, at (916) 324-1847.
