  • ACE Train Has Special Offer Incentives for Cutting S.J. Emissions Proposed
    ACE train has special offer The Record, Published Wednesday, April 23, 2003 Altamont Commuter Express is offering a special deal to commuters who have never tried taking the train to work. Until the end of June, new ACE riders can get a one-week pass for free by calling (800) 411- RAIL. Commuters who call by Thursday each week can get a pass for the next week. After the trial period, those new riders who participated in the "Taste of ACE" event will be able to buy monthly passes for 50 percent off the regular price. For more information on ACE schedules and stations, go to www.acerail.com. Incentives for cutting S.J. emissions proposed By Audrey Cooper, Record Staff Writer Published Thursday, April 24, 2003 FRESNO -- Business and community leaders at a first-ever clean-air summit Wednesday unveiled a proposed plan to cut smog by offering tax incentives and government funds to industries or groups that cut emissions. The Operation Clean Air summit drew more than 400 people from around the San Joaquin Valley, which is by some standards the country's most polluted area. That pollution has been linked to climbing asthma rates, premature deaths and cancer. Operation Clean Air is a public-private organization interested in finding voluntary measures to cut the Valley's pollution. It was the brainchild of Fresno-area politicians and includes representatives of the nine-county Valley air basin. Officials said the proposed plan was only a draft and would go through several changes over the next few months. But the popular centerpiece of the plan is a proposed "Air Quality Improvement Zone," which could work similar to municipal economic-improvement zones that use various financial incentives to encourage urban redevelopment.

  • Philadelphians' Efforts to Create a Green, Sustainable City Are
    http://weeklypress.com/print_this_story.asp?smenu=1&sdetail=1332 7/14/09 9:56 AM Philadelphians’ efforts to create a green, sustainable city are beginning to bear fruit By Raymond Simon | On April 29, Mayor Michael Nutter released "Greenworks Philadelphia," his framework for transforming Philadelphia into America’s greenest city. Then, on May 15, the Energy Coordinating Agency graduated its first class of low-skilled workers retrained for green-collar jobs. Philadelphia’s initial attempts to transform itself have been so successful that United States Representatives Robert Brady, Chaka Fattah and Allyson Schwartz would like them to serve as a model for towns and cities across America. Consequently, they convened a congressional field hearing entitled "Vibrant Communities, Healthy Waters, and Job Opportunities" on Monday, May 18 at the Academy of Natural Sciences. A congressional field hearing is loosely defined as any congressional committee meeting held outside of Washington D.C. Field hearings vary in tone and formality. At some, witnesses are sworn in, but Monday’s meeting was relaxed and informal. Six local experts in greening, sustainability and energy conservation testified: Blaine Bonham, Paul Bonney, Elizabeth Garland, Howard Neukrug, Liz Robinson, and Susan Wachter. The hearing’s purpose was threefold: sharing information; publicizing Philadelphia’s efforts in order to attract more funding to the region; and holding up Philadelphia as an example for the rest of the nation. Congresswoman Schwartz chaired the morning’s first panel discussion, which included testimony from Bonham, executive vice president of the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society; Neukrug, director of the Philadelphia Office of Watersheds; and Wachter, a professor of real estate and finance at Penn’s Wharton School of Business.

  • Letter from Stephen Johnson to Governor Schwarzenegger Denying
    UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20460 DEC 1 9 2007 OFFICE OF THE ADMINISTRATOR The Honorable Arnold Schwarzenegger Governor of the State of California State Capitol Sacramento, California 95814 Dear Governor Schwarzenegger, As I have committed to you in previous correspondence, I am writing to inform you of my decision with respect to the request for a waiver of Federal preemption for motor vehicle greenhouse gas emission standards submitted by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). As you know, EPA undertook an extensive public notice and comment process with regard to the waiver request. The Agency held two public hearings: one on May 22, 2007 in Washington, D.C. and one in Sacramento, California on May 30, 2007. We heard from over 80 individuals at these hearings and received thousands of written comments during the ensuing public comment process from parties representing a broad set of interests, including state and local governments, public health and environmental organizations, academia, industry and citizens. The Agency also received and considered a substantial amount of technical and scientific material submitted after the close of the comment deadline on June 15, 2007. EPA has considered and granted previous waivers to California for standards covering pollutants that predominantly affect local and regional air quality. In contrast, the current waiver request for greenhouse gases is far different; it presents numerous issues that are distinguishable from all prior waiver requests. Unlike other air pollutants covered by previous waivers, greenhouse gases are fundamentally global in nature. Greenhouse gases contribute to the problem of global climate change, a problem that poses challenges for the entire nation and indeed the world.
