Low-carbon fuel standard: regulations.
Summary
The California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 establishes the State Air Resources Board as the state agency responsible for monitoring and regulating sources emitting greenhouse gases. The act requires the state board to adopt rules and regulations to achieve the maximum technologically feasible and cost-effective greenhouse gas emissions reductions to ensure that the statewide greenhouse gas emissions are reduced to at least 40% below the statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit, as defined, no later than December 31, 2030. Pursuant to the act, the state board has adopted the Low-Carbon Fuel Standard regulations. This bill would void specified amendments to the Low-Carbon Fuel Standard regulations adopted by the state board on November 8, 2024.

MINOR
No substantive policy changes were made between these two versions. The diff reflects a reformatting of the same bill text from a plain legislative document into a web page layout, adding website navigation elements (menus, search bars, links) around the identical statutory content. The bill still voids the same CARB Low-Carbon Fuel Standard amendments adopted on November 8, 2024.
TECHNICAL
The bill text was reformatted from a plain legislative document into a web page layout, adding website navigation elements (header links, search functionality, sidebar menus, share buttons) around the unchanged statutory content. No changes to the actual policy language, affected sections, or scope.
