The Clippers are asking the Air Resources Board ("ARB") and the Governor's Office of Planning and Research ("QPR") to take an unprecedented step in how a project's greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions are calculated and to reject ARB' s established methodologies for doing so. If ARB and QPR adopt the Clippers' "market shift theory," ARB and other local and state agencies will lose a key tool to facilitate the State's ambitious and important statewide climate goals. Exacerbating the problem with this "market shift theory" is the Clippers' illusory TDM program that will not only fail to reduce vehicle trips as required by AB 987, it will fail to mitigate the project's GHG emissions. 1 Rejection of the Clippers' methodology is consistent with ARB's and OPR's actions on other projects and would not prevent the Clippers' project from moving forward or being certified under AB 987.

The Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (SAFER) provided the Independent with this photo of grading machinery on the land being leased by the Oak View Group for the construction of a new 10,000 seat arena. The Coachella Valley has been teased with the promise of a new, 10,000-seat arena since June 2019, when the Oak View Group announced it would be partnering with the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians to build the sports and entertainment venue in downtown Palm Springs. However, the pandemic changed those plans. The partnership with Agua Caliente dissolved, and the Oak View Group announced last September that the arena would instead be built just north of the Palm Desert city line near the intersection of Cook Street and Varner Road, right next to the Interstate 10 freeway, on land owned by the H.N.
