| California | 2021 | Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund | 2021 Cal AB 794 | Section 39686. of the Health and Safety Code | SEC. 4. Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 39680) is added to Part 2 of Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code, to read: SECTION 1. Section 16428.9 of the Government Code is amended to read: 16428.9. (a) Before expending any moneys appropriated to it by the Legislature from the fund, a state agency shall prepare a record consisting of all of the following: [...] (6) A description of how grant, loan, voucher, or other incentive programs for purchase of new drayage and short-haul trucks that receive moneys from the fund are implementing the labor standards required by Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 39680) of Part 2 of Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code, as applicable. SEC. 2. Section 39501 is added to the Health and Safety Code, to read: 39501. It is the intent of the Legislature that the state board maximize economic cobenefits by conditioning eligibility to participate in grant, loan, voucher, or other incentive programs to purchase new drayage and short-haul trucks on compliance with the labor standards required by Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 39680). SEC. 4. Chapter 3.6 (commencing with Section 39680) is added to Part 2 of Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code, to read: Chapter 3.6. Labor Standards Article 1.

For the trucking industry, the window is a longer span of years immediately after a fleet purchaser receives the incentive when the vehicle is placed in service. (2) Use market participation to increase demand for clean air vehicles through incentive programs to attain equity goals for jobs in disadvantaged communities and reward companies that respect worker rights. In so doing, the Legislature will require the state board to develop labor standards to determine eligibility for programs that provide clean air incentives for fleet purchasers of new vehicles that operate drayage and short-haul trucking in California. (3) Maximize the environmental benefits of its investments by ensuring that recipients of fleet purchaser subsidies operate the equipment in compliance with all state laws rather than taking advantage of state incentives and then selling or otherwise transferring the equipment in question. (4) Clarify that the state board’s authority to maximize job-related cobenefits applies to all of the incentive funds and programs that it administers. (5) Expand upon the state board’s current approach of using multiyear incentive contracts to clearly set the conditions for attaining the state’s clean air objectives with workforce cobenefits. Relevant conditions already in place for heavy-duty trucks include compliance with state law and contract terms for multiyear ownership and control of the equipment. 39686. (a) The state board may evaluate an allegation regarding a violation of the standards set forth in Article 2 (commencing with Section 39690). (b) The state board shall develop an internet website that displays public information from fleet purchasers that receive an incentive subject to this chapter regarding their disclosures and attestations required pursuant to Section 39690. Information disclosed pursuant to subdivision (aq) of 1095 of the Code to the state board shall not be redisclosed on the state board’s internet website or otherwise be disclosed to the public, consistent with federal laws and regulations. |
