Approximately $53 million transferred to the SCAQMDPlaced in a mitigation fees fundapproved by the Board June 2011Designated to fund emissionsreduction projects

Slide3

Emissions Mitigation Funds Use

AB 1318 specifies use of mitigation fees for emission reduction purposes

At least 30% “within close proximity” to the power plant project, which the SCAQMD Governing Board has determined to be the radial distance of 6 milesAt least 30% in EJ Areas under SCAQMD jurisdictionRemaining 40% can be used anywhere in the SCAQMD jurisdiction

Slide4

RFP Development

January 2012In conjunction with development of an RFP for expending the funds, staff held two public consultation meetings in the Coachella ValleyFebruary 2012

Determined that all funds are to be used in the Coachella Valley, that is the area that is both within SCAQMD jurisdiction and the Salton Sea Air BasinDefined “close proximity” and EJ areasAuthorized the release of the RFP (issued February 9, 2012)Proposal submittal period extended from normal 60 days to 120 days (deadline - no later than 5:00 p.m. on June 8, 2012)

Slide5

Environmental Justice Area Definition per AB 1318

Refers to SCAQMD Rule 1309.1 – Priority Reserve (adopted August 2007)

Areas where at least 10% of the population is below the poverty level (2000 Census); ANDDisproportionate impacts from fine particulate (PM10) exposure (> 46 µ

g/m

)

Slide6

Project Site

Close Proximity = Six Mile Radial Distance

Slide7

Available Funding

Available funding for project is based on the Mitigation Fees Fund Deposit of $53,318,358.30, less 5% for administrationTherefore, minimum 30% funding for close proximity and EJ Areas = $15,195,732.12Interest earned from the fund will be used to fund additional projects under the program as approved

Slide8

75 proposals received containing >$375M in projects submitted, including:

~$173M in close proximity (6-miles) to the power plant~$190M in EJ areasSubmittals generally fell into the following categories:Solar: ~$132MAlternative fueled vehicles and infrastructure: ~$41M

Air Filtration: ~$22.5M

Paving: ~$27M

Gardening: ~$12.5M

Weatherizing buildings and homes: ~$20.5MOther: ~$121M (e.g., congestion relief & alternative energy)

Slide10

Panel Recommendations Regarding Evaluations

Award 5 additional points to local governments and schools, as was done for local businesses doing at least 90% business in the SCAQMD jurisdictionSet a minimum technical score of 70 points for funding considerationSeveral proposals have multiple projects or layers therefore partial funding of some was awarded
