California AB513, the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, mandates the development of a comprehensive plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2020. The plan, to be prepared by the state board, includes recommendations on direct emissions reduction measures, compliance mechanisms, and incentives. It also considers the impact on small businesses and evaluates economic and noneconomic benefits, particularly for communities with significant exposure to air pollutants. The plan must be updated every five years and includes public workshops for stakeholder input.
