AB 605: Employment: refineries: task force.

The bill introduces a pilot program to reduce emissions from cargo handling equipment. The program aims to promote the use of low-emission cargo handling equipment by prohibiting future regulations that would prohibit its use before December 31, 2027. To participate in the program, cargo handling equipment must meet specific emission standards and be labeled accordingly. The equipment must also include a description of its useful life from the manufacturer, and this life cannot exceed a specified number of years. The program's goal is to achieve the greatest emission reductions from each emission source identified in the movement of freight along California's trade corridors.
