THE JANUARY THIRTEENTH TWENTY
TWENTY HEARING OF THE NATURAL
RESOURCES COMMITTEE AND IT WITH
THE ABSENCE OF A QUORUM ARE
GOING TO BEGIN AS A SUB
COMMITTEE. AND THEN VOTE ON
BILLS WHEN WE ESTABLISH A
QUORUM. WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THE
BILLS IN SIGNED IN ORDER AND
THEN WE WILL HAVE ONE BILL
THAT'S PROPOSED PROPOSED
CONSENT AB TEN SEVENTY ONE. OUR
FIRST UP IS ASSEMBLY MEMBER
WALDRON WITH A. B. NINETEEN.
WELCOME. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
AND MEMBERS OUR FIRST OFF I
JUST WANT TO START OFF I'M
ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEES
SUGGESTED AMENDMENTS AND THANK
THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR ALL
YOUR HARD WORK ON THIS BILL. AB
NINETEEN AS IN PRINT WITH
ESTABLISH A TWENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLAR GRANT PROGRAM TO HELP-COUNTY ROAD MAINTENANCE
DEPARTMENTS AND LOCAL FIRE
PROTECTION DISTRICTS. PURCHASE
VEGETATION ANAGEMENT EQUIPMENT
TO PREVENT WILDFIRES ALONG
COUNTY MAINTAIN STREETS AND
ROADS ITH IN HIGH AND VERY
HIGH FIRE HAZARD SEVERITY
SONGS. ACCORDING TO THE COUNTY
OF SAN DIEGO NEARLY 25% OF
WILDFIRES. IN THE COUNTY IN
TWENTY SIXTEEN AND TWENTY
SEVENTEEN WERE VEHICLE RELATED
FIRES. THE MOST NOTABLE VEHICLE
RELATED FIRE THE CAR FIRE BURN
MORE THAN TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
ACRES DESTROYED MORE THAN
FIFTEEN HUNDRED STRUCTURES AND
KILLED AT LEAST SEVEN PEOPLE.
VEHICLE FIRES CAN BE CAUSED BY
AN ENGINE CATCHING FIRE BECAUSE
IT'S PULLING MAINTAIN A FAILING
CATALYTIC CONVERTER A FLAT TIRE
OR SOMEONE DRAGGING A METAL
CHAIN OR EVEN PULLING OVER JUST
SIMPLY TO PULL OVER TO MAKE A
PHONE CALL IN A BRUSHY AREA ON
THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AND
IGNITING DRY GRASS BY FOCUSING
ON THE FOOT DEFENSIBLE SPACE
ALONG COUNTY MAINTAIN ROADWAYS
AB NINETEEN IS INTENDED TO HELP
PREVENT NEARLY ONE QUARTER OF
ALL WILDFIRES. THIS GRANT IS
INTENDED TO PROVIDE DIRECT
SUPPORT TO LOCAL WORLD
DEPARTMENTS AND LOCAL FIRE
PROTECTION DISTRICTS IN THEIR
EFFORTS TO MANAGE VEGETATION
ALONG COUNTY STREETS AND ROADS.
THE AMENDMENTS THAT I'M
ACCEPTING TODAY WILL
APPROPRIATE TWENTY FIVE MILLION
FROM THE GENERAL FUND TO THE
FIRE PREVENTION GRANT PROGRAM.
AND REQUIRE THOSE FUNDS TO BE
FOCUS OF VEGETATION MANAGEMENT
EQUIPMENT AND FUEL REDUCTION
ALONG ROADWAYS I APPRECIATE THE
COMMITTEE'S DESIRE TO NOT
CREATE DUPLICATIVE GRANT
PROGRAMS AND LOOK FORWARD TO
WORKING. TOWARD ENSURING THAT
THE FUNDS ALLOCATED IN THIS
BILL OR DISPENSED IN A TARGETED
MANNER TO THE COMMUNITIES WITH
THE GREATEST NEED- THIS BILL-
ENJOYS SUPPORT FROM MANY MANY
FIRE DISTRICTS. AS WELL AS THE
CALIFORNIA FORESTRY ASSOCIATION
THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS SAN
DIEGO COUNTY FIRE TO SIX
ASSOCIATION CAL FIRE CHIEFS
ASSOCIATION- AND THE LIST GOES
ON AND ON- I HAVE WITH ME TODAY
FIRE CHIEF STEVEN AB FROM THE
NORTH COUNTY FIRE PROTECTION
DISTRICT. AT AND STACY HEATON
FROM RC RC AS WITNESSES TODAY
THANK YOU THANK YOU ANY WITNESS
WILL HAVE THREE MINUTES. THANK
YOU MY NAME IS STEVE ABBOTT
PARK CHIEF MECHANIC FIRE
PROTECTION DISTRICT SO VERY
BRIEFLY- IN MY THIRTY YEAR
TENURE NOW WITH OUR COUNTY FIRE
WE'VE EXPERIENCED THREE
CATASTROPHIC FIRES THAT'S THREE
TOO MANY THANKFULLY UNLIKE SOME
OF THE OTHER- FIRES THAT-
ASSEMBLY MEMBER WALDRON
MENTIONED- WE DID NOT HAVE. ANY
FATALITIES. HOWEVER AT ROADSIDE
CLEARANCE IN ADDITION TO ALL
THE FACTORS THAT SHE MENTIONED
ALSO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES
THE- PROBABILITY OF SURVIVING
ESCAPING A WILDFIRE AYE TAKING
FOR EXAMPLE THE CEDAR FIRE THAT
HAPPENED IN TWO THOUSAND THREE-
ONE OF THE STATE'S DEADLIEST
FIRES AT THIRTEEN FATALE THESE
VIRTUALLY ALL THOSE BRUTALITIES
WERE A RESULT OF- DE. DEATH
ALONG THE ROADWAYS WHAT WHILE
ATTEMPTING TO FLEE THE FIRE. I
THINK ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT
COULD BE THOUGHT IS- YOU KNOW
WHAT ABOUT SUSTAINABILITY OF A
PROGRAM SUCH AS THIS- AND IT'S
IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND THAT
SEVEN WERE BUYING. EQUIPMENT
AND NOT AS WE'RE NOT
PREDOMINATELY FUNDING SERVICES
WITH THIS AND SO THAT'S GIVING
THE FIRE AGENCIES IN THE
COUNTY. I ROAD APARTMENTS IS
RESOURCES THEY NEED TO GET
THESE KINDS OF PROGRAMS UP AND
RUNNING. TO USE OR CASE IN
POINT- ARE VERY HIGH FIRE
HAZARD SEVERITY ZONE 90% OF OUR
DISTRICT A STATE RESPONSIBILITY
AREA. IT TOOK A COUNTY ROAD
DEPARTMENT UNTIL- THE MONTH OF
OCTOBER WHICH IS ABOUT FOUR
MONTHS TOO LATE TO CLEAR THE
ROADS WITHIN OUR- WITHIN OUR
JURISDICTION. AND THAT'S
THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN
IN TALKING WITH THE ROAD
SUPERVISOR THEY INDICATED- YOU
KNOW- CHIEF IT. IF WE COULD
RENT THE EQUIPMENT WE WOULD
RENT IT SO WE CAN GET THIS WORK
DONE BUT THERE IS SIMPLY NOT
AND TO BE HAPPY. AND THAT TO ME
WAS THE LIGHT BULBS THAT TO A
BOY WE REALLY NEED A PROGRAM.
LIKE THIS AND ALONG COMES.
SENATE MEMBER WALDRON FOR THIS
IS A WONDERFUL. OKAY REQUEST.
THANK YOU NEXT WITNESS PLEASE
GOOD AFTERNOON I'M STACY HEAT
WITH THE WORLD COUNTY
REPRESENTATIVES OF CALIFORNIA
AND WE ARE AT SPONSOR OF THIS
BILL AND YOU KNOW THE CAR FIRE
WAS ACTUALLY IN ONE OF OUR
MEMBER COUNTY SHASTA COUNTY AND
IT PRETTY WELL DESTROYED THE
CITY READING AS YOU WELL KNOW.
AND IN MANY OF OUR COUNTIES
HAVE A LOT OF COMMUNITIES THAT
COULD USE THIS TYPE OF A
PROGRAM SO THAT WE CAN PURCHASE
EQUIPMENT TO GO OUT AND DO
CLEARANCES AROUND THE ROADS TO
PREVENT SUCH FIRES LIKE THAT WE
HAVE A LOT OF AREAS OF YOU
KNOW- SOCIAL ECONOMIC
DISADVANTAGE IN OUR RURAL
COMMUNITIES THAT COULD REALLY
USE A PROGRAM LIKE THIS TELL
PURCHASE EQUIPMENT TO
MAINTAINING TO KEEP THAT
SUSTAINABLE AS CHIEF ABBOTT
SAID. AND THIS PROGRAM COULD BE
OF GREAT USE AMONG A LOT OF OR
MEMBER COUNTIES AND WE URGE
YOUR SUPPORT OF THIS BILL TODAY

THERE'S VERY FEW THINGS THAT WE
CAN DO WHEN IT COMES TO THE
DEVASTATION OF WILDFIRES IN
DEALING WITH VEGETATION
MANAGEMENT. IT'S KIND OF IT'S
SOMETHING WE HAVEN'T TALKED A
LOT ABOUT THIS AND IT'S
STARTING TO GROW THE- SOME
STEAM BEHIND IT AND I'M REALLY
EXCITED ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT'S
FUNDAMENTALLY. WHAT WE CAN DO
TO TAKE THE INTENSITY OF THESE
FIRES THAT OUR MEN AND WOMEN
THAT THEY ARE CALLED TO GO
FIGHT THEM GIVE THEM AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CATCH THESE
THINGS BEFORE THEY GROW UP YOU

THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR AND GOOD
AFTERNOON COLLEAGUES AND STAFF
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY
TO PRESENT AB NINE SIXTY SIX I
WANNA. FIRST SAY I AM HAPPY TO
ACCEPT THE COMMITTEES PROPOSED
AMENDMENTS THANK YOU FOR YOUR
WORK ON THAT- I'M PLEASED TO
BUY THAT AB NINE SIX SIX SIX
WHICH- WILL TAKE S. STEPS TO.
MEASURE AND REDUCE THE CARBON
FOOTPRINT CALIFORNIA CEMENT AND
CONCRETE INDUSTRIES CEMENT. AND
ITS RELATED PRODUCT CONCRETE
ARE VITAL TO OUR CIVILIZATION
AND USED IN VIRTUALLY EVERY
CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. BUT
CEMENT PRODUCTION IS ALSO ONE
OF THE MOST ENERGY. AND CARBON
INTENSIVE MANUFACTURING PROCESS
SEES. IN THE WORLD ON ITS OWN
THE GLOBAL CEMENT INDUSTRY
ACCOUNTS FOR BETWEEN FIVE AND
EIGHT PERCENT. OF THE WORLD'S
HARMFUL CARBON EMISSIONS.
CALIFORNIA'S EIGHT CEMENT MAN
FACTORIES PRIMARILY USE COAL
AND PETROLEUM COKE AS FUEL FOR
THE COURT FOR THEIR OPERATIONS
AND- CALIFORNIA'S CEMENT
COMPANIES ARE THE LARGEST
CONSUMERS OF COAL IN THE STATE.
THANKS TO ADVANCES IN
TECHNOLOGIES AND PRODUCTION
PROCESS SEES. THE CLEANEST
CEMENT FACTORIES CAN
SIGNIFICANTLY CUT POLLUTION AB
NINE SIX SIX REQUIRE CEMENT
MANUFACTURERS TO MEASURE AND
REPORT. THEIR EMISSIONS USING
THIRD PARTY VERIFIED DOCUMENTS
CALLED ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT
DECLARATIONS OR EP'S FOR SHORT.
AND I BELIEVE IN THE NINE SIX
SIX IS AN IMPORTANT STEP TO
IDENTIFY WAYS TO ADDRESS. OUR
EXISTENTIAL THREAT OF GLOBAL
CLIMATE CHANGE AS A GLOBAL
LEADER ON CLIMATE ACTION
CALIFORNIA SHOULD BE LEADING-
AND THIS BILL HAS NO OPPOSITION
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN
IPHONE AB NINE SIXTY SIX. I
HAVE TWO WITNESSES HERE WITH ME.
FIVE ONE IS HERE WITH ME CHRIS
ERICKSON CEO OF BP SOFTWARE
COMPANY CLIMATE. TRAFFIC AND
YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES THANK
YOU. I WANT TO START BY SAYING
MY COMPANY HAS BEEN GENERATED
DVDS- SINCE THEY WERE FIRST
INTRODUCED IN TWENTY THIRTEEN
AND OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE NO
GENERATED OVER TWENTY THOUSAND
A PIECE IN THE MARKETPLACE-
WHICH IN A SEA CHANGE IN THE
ATTITUDE ABOUT HE PT'S IN THE
LAST TWO YEARS. IN PARTICULAR-
THEY WERE INITIALLY VIEWED AS
SORT OF A GREEN TAX- BY THE
INDUSTRY BUT MORE AND MORE
THEY'RE BEING ACCEPTED NOW AS
AN IMPORTANT NEW METRIC FOR THE
GROWING. LOW CARBON
CONSTRUCTION MARKET. AND I
THINK THAT'S NOT ONLY BECAUSE
OF THE DEMAND BUT THE RULES
HAVE CHANGED AND DEVELOPED THE
LAST TWO YEARS HAVE EIGHTY P.
THESE ARE VERY VERY COMPARISON
BETWEEN TEXAS. AND SECONDLY-
EPT AUTOMATION IS DRIVING THE
COST WAY WAY DOWN. ALL WITH
RESPECT TO THE CEMENT INDUSTRY
THEY'RE ALSO SEEING THIS CHANGE
AND OF COURSE THERE ARE THE
MAJOR PROVIDERS TO THE READY
MIX COMPANIES AND MOST OF THEM
ARE VERTICALLY INTEGRATED- IN
THE PAST THEY'VE BEEN USING
INDUSTRY AVERAGE GPD DATA. TO
SUPPORT THERE'S CONCRETE
PROVIDERS AND- THEY ARE NOW
PENALIZED- BECAUSE WE HAVE TO
PRODUCE AN UNCERTAINTY METRIC
OF PLUS OR MINUS 50% UP 250%
WHEN THEY USE THIS INDUSTRY
AVERAGE EPT- SO THAT THERE ARE
NOW MOTIVATED TO MOVE TOWARDS
FACILITY. SPECIFICALLY PRODUCE.
AND LAST OF ALL THEY'RE ALSO
MOTIVATED AT A MACRO LEVEL. THE
LARGEST CEMENT PRODUCER IN THE
WORLD WHICH IS HEIDELBERG
CEMENT. HAS COMMITTED TO REDUCE
OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT BY 30% BY
TWENTY THIRTY AND TO BE FULLY
CARBON NEUTRAL. ARE BY TWENTY
FIFTY SO OVERALL I SEE THIS
BILL AND MY COMPANY SEES THIS
BILL WAS VERY MUCH IN LINE WITH
MARKET TRENDS AND THE TIMING IS
JUST RIGHT. THANK YOU YOU KNOW
THE WITNESS I DO I ALSO HAVE
KEVIN PHILLIPS DIRECTOR OF THIS
YEAR CLUB CALIFORNIA. HI THANK
YOU- AND HAPPY NEW YEAR- WE'RE
IN STRONG SUPPORT OF THIS BILL-
WE HAVE FOUND IN THE PAST ON OF
THEIR AND A VARIETY OF ISSUES
THAT DISCLOSURE IS ONE OF THE-
POWERFUL TOOLS THAT WE CAN USE
TO ENCOURAGE- NOT JUST
COMPANIES TO CLEAN UP THEIR ACT
BUT ALSO TO ENCOURAGE CONSUMERS
TO. PURCHASE THOSE THINGS THAT
ARE MOST BENEFICIAL AND THAT
WILL REDUCE- IMPACTS ON THE
ENVIRONMENT THIS GIVES AN
OPPORTUNITY THIS BILL WILL GIVE
AN OPPORTUNITY. FOR THE- STATE
AGENCIES TO SEE WHAT THE
CONSEQUENCES ARE FROM
PURCHASING THESE PRODUCTS FROM
DIFFERENT VENDORS. AND AGAIN IT
WILL CERTAINLY SET UP A-
COMPETITIVE VERGE BY THE
VENDORS TO- REDUCE THEIR-
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND
OTHER POLLUTANTS. THINGS WERE
STRONG SUPPORT IS THERE ANYONE
ELSE WISHING TO TESTIFY IN
SUPPORT OF THE BILL. MELISSA
ROMERO WITH THE CALIFORNIA
LEAGUE OF CONSERVATION VOTERS
IN SUPPORT. THANK YOU ANYONE
ELSE IS THERE ANYONE IN
OPPOSITION TO THE BILL. CHARLIE
READ WITH A CALIFORNIA
CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRIAL
MATERIALS ASSOCIATION AND A BIG
PART OF OUR MEMBERSHIP ARE
CONCRETE PRODUCERS AND REALLY
AT THIS TIME WE DON'T HAVE A
POSITION ON THE BILL BUT WE
HAVE SUBMITTED A LETTER
EXPLAINING SOME ISSUES- HOPE
THAT CAN BE ADDRESSED AND I
DON'T KNOW IF IT'S OKAY TO
MAYBE TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO.
BRIEFLY SUMMARIZE SURE JUSTIN
JUST KIND OF GENERAL BACKGROUND
IS PROBABLY A HUNDRED CONCRETE
COMPANIES IN CALIFORNIA ABOUT
THREE HUNDRED PLANTS- DISPERSED
FROM THE STATE AND ALL THE
EFFORTS OF DEFINITELY BEGUN ARE
SOME COMPANIES ALREADY HAVE YOU
PT'S FOR ALL A PART OF THEIR
PRODUCTION OTHERS ARE ARE
PRODUCING THEM BUT THERE'S
STILL A LOT OUT THERE THAT THAT
THEY DON'T HAVE A- SORE CAN-
ISSUES THAT WE WERE HOPING THAT
CAN. BE ADDRESSED WE'VE HAD
SOME INITIAL CONVERSATIONS OF
THE AUTHOR AND I KNOW THAT'S
BEEN ADDRESSED IN THE COMMITTEE
IN THE HOUSE TOO BUT IT'S
QUICKLY I THINK WANTED RECENT
TIME FOR IMPLEMENTATION- TO CAN
ADDRESS THE THRESHOLD. BILL I
FIFTY YARDS OF CONCRETE THINK
THAT MAYBE THE HIGHER. ALSO A
THRESHOLD. SIZE OF PLANT THAT
WOULD BE APPLICABLES TO- BEGIN
FOR THE MORE RURAL SMALLER LOW
VOLUME PLANTS LAW HARDER TO- DO
ALL THIS. IN SORT THE COST- AND
THIRD JUST- MAYBE SOMETHING
THAT SOME SORT OF GUARANTEE
THAT THE P. D. WOULD HAVE A-
CERTAIN LIFE TO IT I. WE ASK
FOR THAT BECAUSE THERE'S ALL
THESE OTHER BACKGROUND
DOCUMENTS THAT ARE PRODUCED
NATIONALLY WE DON'T HAVE
CONTROL OVER. THEY ONLY LAST
FOR FIVE YEARS SO DEPENDING ON
WHEN YOU PRODUCE THREE P. D.
YOU KNOW YOU MAY HAVE TO
PRODUCE ANOTHER ONE. A YEAR
LATER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND THEN. ANOTHER WAY TO DRESS
AT TWO IS ALSO PER. PER PROJECT
AND YOU SOMETIMES A CALTRANS
PROJECT FIRST THIS CAN GO ON
FOR MORE THAN FIVE YEARS OR SO.
THOSE ARE COMMENTS A DEAF.
SHADE ALL THAT SESSION AND LOOK
