Public Workshop on January 24, 2023 Development of a Potential Zero-Emission Forklift Regulation
The California Air Resources
Board (CARB) invites you to participate in a public workshop webinar to
discuss the development of a potential regulatory
measure that would require fleets
to replace their propane and gasoline forklifts with battery-electric
or fuel-cell electric versions.
This
measure is expected to lower emissions of toxic substances and greenhouse gases,
and its provisions could benefit disadvantaged communities, especially those
with many warehouses and high concentrations of forklift use. We encourage
community group involvement in the rulemaking process so that we can better
understand how this regulation could impact California communities, and how to
best adjust the proposed regulation’s requirements to maximize its benefits.
No previous involvement in this
process is needed and we strongly support the participation of newcomers.
Date:
January 24, 2023
Time: 9:00 a.m. – 12:00
p.m.
Location: Webinar
More details can be found in the Workshop
Notice. Meeting materials will be made available in
advance of the workshop on the Zero-Emission Forklifts: Meetings and Workshops webpage.
If you’re interested in
information on the public process or the workshop, have any questions, or would
like to request a meeting to discuss the rulemaking, please reach out to CARB
