The California Senate has voted to approve an amendment to California's climate disclosure laws, granting the California Air Resources Board (CARB) an additional six months to develop regulations related to the reporting of greenhouse gas emissions.
The amendment introduces several changes to California Health and Safety Code 38532 (introduced as California Senate Bill 253) and California Health and Safety Code 38533 (introduced as California Senate Bill 261). The proposed amendment was introduced as SB 219 and effectively extends the previous January 1, 2025, reporting deadline to July 1, 2025, for purposes of reporting out greenhouse gas emissions under California Health and Safety Code 38532 (CA SB 253). Currently, the reporting deadlines have not changed for California Health and Safety Code 38533 (CA SB 261).
