Supplemental environmental projects.

Existing law requires each board, department, and office within the California Environmental Protection Agency that has enforcement authority to establish a policy on supplemental environmental projects that benefits disadvantaged communities, as defined. Existing law requires that policy to include among other things, allowing the amount of a supplemental environmental project to be up to 50% of the enforcement action. This bill would require an assurance that no less than 10% of the enforcement action monetary penalties received by each board, department, and office within the agency is allocated to supplemental environmental projects in disadvantaged communities. The bill would require each board, department, and office within the agency to compile and submit specified information to the agency and would require the agency to consolidate that information and post it on the agency's Internet Web site.
