Regulations wereadopted by the ARB in September 2004.Diesel Anti-IdlingThe ARB adopted a measure to limit diesel-fueledcommercial motor vehicle idling in July 2004.ConsistentVehicles that travel to and from the Project Area on publicroadways would be in compliance with ARB vehicle standardsthat are in effect at the time of vehicle purchase.ConsistentCurrent State law restricts diesel truck idling to five minutes orless. Diesel trucks operating from and making deliveries to, theProject Area are subject to this statewide law. Constructionvehicles are also subject to this regulation.Hydrofluorocarbon Reduction1) Ban retail sale of HFC in small cans.2) Require that only low GWP refrigerants be used in newvehicular systems.3) Adopt specifications for new commercial refrigeration.4) Add refrigerant leak-tightness to the pass criteria forvehicular inspection and maintenance programs.5) Enforce federal ban on releasing HFCs.ConsistentThis strategy applies to consumer products. All applicableproducts would comply with the regulations that are in effect atthe time of manufacture.5-17City of Ventura
Saticoy & Wells Community Plan and Code EIRSection 5.0 Growth Effects and Other CEQA SectionsTable 5-6Project Consistency with Applicable Climate Action TeamGreenhouse Gas Emission Reduction StrategiesStrategyAlternative Fuels: Biodiesel BlendsARB would develop regulations to require the use of 1 to 4percent biodiesel displacement of California diesel fuel.Alternative Fuels: EthanolIncreased use of E-85 fuel.Heavy-Duty Vehicle Emission Reduction MeasuresIncreased efficiency in the design of heavy duty vehicles andan education program for the heavy duty vehicle sector.Achieve 50% Statewide Recycling GoalAchieving the State’s 50% waste diversion mandate asestablished by the Integrated Waste Management Act of1989, (AB 939, Sher, Chapter 1095, Statutes of 1989), willreduce climate change emissions associated with energyintensive material extraction and production as well asmethane emission from landfills. A diversion rate of 48% hasbeen achieved on a statewide basis. Therefore, a 2%additional reduction is needed.Zero Waste – High RecyclingEfforts to exceed the 50% goal would allow for additionalreductions in climate change emissions.Project ConsistencyConsistentDiesel vehicles that travel to and from the Project Area on publicroadways could utilize this fuel once it is commercially available.ConsistentEmployees and residents of the Project Area could choose topurchase flex-fuel vehicles and utilize this fuel once it iscommercially available in the region and local vicinity.ConsistentHeavy-duty vehicles that travel to and from the Project Area onpublic roadways would be subject to all applicable ARB efficiencystandards that are in effect at the time of vehicle manufacture.ConsistentThe City of Ventura has already achieve the 50% StatewideRecycling Goal. It is anticipated that the Saticoy and Wellscommunities would similarly divert at least 50% of its solid wasteafter the recyclable content is diverted. Development projectsunder the Project will be conditioned to provide recycling bins topromote recycling of paper, metal, glass, and other recyclablematerial.ConsistentIt is anticipated that the Project Area would similarly divert at least50% of its solid waste after the recyclable content is diverted.Projects under the Project will be conditioned to provide recyclingbins to promote recycling for both residential andcommercial/retail components. Individual projects under theProject would also be subject to all applicable State and Cityrequirements for solid waste reduction as they change in thefuture.Department of ForestryUrban ForestryA new statewide goal of planting 5 million trees in urbanareas by 2020 would be achieved through the expansion oflocal urban forestry programs.ConsistentThe Community Plan includes policies and actions that includerestoration of the Brown Barranca in addition to creation of alinear park. The Project also proposes landscaping as part ofcirculation improvements along area streets. This would includeplanting street trees for streets included in the Project.Department of Water ResourcesWater Use EfficiencyApproximately 19% of all electricity, 30% of all natural gas,and 88 million gallons of diesel are used to convey, treat,distribute and use water and wastewater. Increasing theefficiency of water transport and reducing water use wouldreduce greenhouse gas emissions.ConsistentThe Project proposes to provide drought-tolerant, low waterconsumption plant varieties throughout the Project Area. Thiswould include requiring landscaping that not only re-establishesnative habitat in riparian corridors, but also protects drainageprocesses, reduces water demand, retains runoff, and rechargesgroundwater supplies.Energy Commission (CEC)Building Energy Efficiency Standards in Place and inProgressPublic Resources Code 25402 authorizes the CEC to adoptand periodically update its building energy efficiencyConsistentAll future development under the Project will need to comply withthe standards of Title 24 that are in effect at the time ofdevelopment.5-18City of Ventura
