The CalEEMod Steering Committee is pleased to propose new quantified measures for the CAPCOA GHG Handbook. These proposed additions were facilitated by a Phase I planning grant received by the Sac Metro Air District under the Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG) program sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Inflation Reduction Act. Research, quantification determinations, and the development of quantification methodologies for each measure were completed by ICF and CAPCOA, with Ramboll providing quality assurance. These measures are currently incorporated into the Capital Region Climate Priorities Plan for the seven-county Sacramento region, and were chosen by the CPRG Steering Committee for the Sacramento-Roseville, CA Combined Statistical Area.
T-55: Infill Development
T-56: Active Modes of Transportation for Youth
T-40: Establish a School Bus Program
T-34: Provide Bicycle Parking (remains unquantified)
T-22-D: Transition Conventional to Electric Bikeshare
T-46: Provide Transit Shelters
E-21: Install Cool Pavement
E-26: Biomass Energy
S-3: Require Edible Food Recovery Program Partnerships with Food Generators
N-7: Wildfire Resilience and Management (CalEEMod integration needed)
N-8: Agricultural Equipment Efficiency
M-6: Off-Road Equipment Efficiency
A webinar will be hosted on March 20, 2024 at 11am to present the measures as well as take feedback from interested parties. We will also be taking written comments electronically via email to Paul Philley at ghandbook@airquality.org by April 5, 2024.
