CARB

The District is sharing the message below on behalf of CARB. 

Hello from CARB! We’ve got announcements to share, below, on a few items we think are relevant ,or at least interesting, to folks in the Stockton community:

CARB Environmental Justice Advisory Committee Meeting: Thursday, February 13, 2025

CARB’s Environmental Justice Advisory Committee is meeting this Thursday. The EJAC, as it’s often abbreviated, is comprised of representatives from communities across the State, and its work intersects and overlaps with a lot of the environmental justice work done through AB 617. It’s definitely worth tuning in for those of you interested in a “bigger picture” view of environmental justice work being done statewide. The meeting is scheduled from 1:00pm – 5:00pm on Tuesday, February 13, and remote participation via Zoom is an option. Meeting details are in the link above and right here

CARB Evening Community Meeting for Clean Transportation Incentives: Tuesday, February 18, 2025

Clean Transportation Incentives meetings are hosted by CARB on a monthly basis, typically on the 3rd Thursday. At these meetings, CARB hosts a discussion on the development process for the Clean Transportation Incentives Funding Plan. For those of you interested in learning more about incentives in general and how they contribute to lowering air pollution and incentivizing more widespread adoption of advanced technologies, this could be a very good meeting to attend. The meeting is scheduled from 5:00pm – 7:00pm on Tuesday, February 18, and will be hosted virtually via Zoom. Meeting details are in the link above and right here, and the agenda has been posted here.
