Source-supplied abstracts

Existing law requires the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, on or before January 1, 2024, and every 3 years thereafter, to submit an assessment to the Legislature that, among other things, identifies methods to ensure a reliable supply of affordable and safe transportation fuels in California and evaluates the price of transportation fuels, including branded and unbranded retail prices, alternate formulations of gasoline with lower carbon impact, and other products suitable for production from refineries in California, as provided. Existing law establishes the Division of Petroleum Market Oversight within the commission to, among other things, provide independent oversight and analysis of the transportation fuels market for the protection of consumers by identifying market design flaws, market power abuses, and any other manner by which market participants act to harm competition or act contrary to the best interests of the consumers in the state. Existing law requires the director of the division, when requested, to appear before the appropriate policy committees of the Legislature to provide an update on the division's performance as compared to its objectives, the status of competition in the transportation fuels markets, and other information the committees request. This bill would require the commission, on or before January 31, 2029, to seek to enter into memoranda of understanding with relevant air districts and local governments with transportation fuels refining facilities within their jurisdictions, as identified by the commission, to enable the further coordination that is needed to support management of the transportation fuels sector and to ensure the transportation fuels sector is successfully managed and maintains environmental, public health, labor, economic, and consumer protections.
