LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2526, as introduced, Oropeza. Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program: diesel fuel tax money.
The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program provides grants to offset the incremental cost of projects that reduce emissions of NOx from covered sources in California. The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Trust Fund is established to make money in the fund available for purposes of the program upon appropriation by the Legislature. The Diesel Fuel Tax Law imposes a tax upon diesel fuel and requires the money derived therefrom, with a specified exception, to be deposited in the State Treasury to the credit of the Motor Vehicle Fuel Account in the Transportation Tax Fund.
This bill would require a portion of the money derived from the diesel fuel tax to be deposited into the Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Trust Fund, as provided.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: YES   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
