Background
State Budget Condition
State Faces Multiyear Deficits. As described in our December 2023 Fiscal Outlook and our January 2024 Overview of the Governor’s Budget, we project ongoing General Fund operating deficits of roughly $30 billion per year. These deficits likely necessitate ongoing spending reductions, revenue increases, or both.
Transit Agency Finances
Transit Agencies Rely on a Mix of Funding Streams. California has more than 200 transit agencies operating vehicles such as buses, trains, ferries, and paratransit vans. Local governments, such as cities, counties, and local transit authorities, generally own and operate these agencies. In 2019, passenger fares and fees provided 17 percent of funding for these agencies. Forty-six percent came from other local revenues, while the state and federal governments provided 20 percent and 17 percent, respectively.
Some Transit Agencies Are Facing Ridership Declines and Operational Funding Shortfalls. Transit ridership in California declined gradually from 2014 to 2019. Ridership fell by more than 50 percent when the pandemic began in 2020. Due to the pandemic-related disruptions, transit agencies projected significant declines in both fare revenues and other state and local funds dedicated to transit. In response, the federal government provided a nationwide total of nearly $70 billion in operational relief to stabilize transit agencies’ budgets, prevent layoffs, and maintain service levels. California’s transit agencies received $9.8 billion in federal relief funds. While state and local funding sources dedicated to transit generally have recovered to their pre-pandemic levels, ridership and corresponding fare revenues have not.
Innovative Clean Transit (ICT) Regulation
Conventional Buses vs. ZEBs. The ZEB exemption, the ICT regulation, and various other policies make a distinction between conventional buses and ZEBs. Conventional buses burn diesel, compressed natural gas, or other fuels that emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other air pollutants. In contrast, ZEBs run on electricity or hydrogen and do not produce tailpipe emissions. The main purposes of policies that promote ZEB adoption are to reduce GHGs and other air pollution.
Requires Transit Agencies to Buy ZEBs.
Acid Rain - NYSDEC
Utilize public transportation, carpool, or walk.

Buy clean electric power.

New York's Acid Deposition Monitoring NetworkNew York's first acid deposition program was established in 1985 in response to the State Acid Deposition Control Act (SADCA). This program was designed to measure acid deposition to assess the effectiveness of sulfur control policies and other strategies aimed at reducing the effects of acid rain. The program has documented environmental improvements resulting from NOx and SOx control strategies. For example, the deposition of sulfate statewide has decreased by more than 75% since the monitoring program began. And these concentrations of acidic pollutants continue to decline. The SADCA established an environmental threshold value of 20 kg/ha/yr for wet sulfate deposition. Currently all monitoring sites in New York are well below that threshold.At the end of 2012, the Department discontinued this program and transitioned six monitoring locations to the National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP). The transition to the NADP program has provided data for use in regulation development. The NADP has also allowed for the comparison of data from New York with other acid sensitive regions across the country. NADP sites within New York and in neighboring states can better understand acid deposition across the northeastern US.The NADP program measures the concentrations of free acidity (H+ as pH), conductance, calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), sulfate (SO42-), nitrate (NO3- ), chloride (Cl- ), and ammonium (NH4+).Data and reports from this program from across the United States can found on the NADP website.Adirondack Long Term Monitoring ProgramOver the years, many programs and policies, have reduced emissions of pollutants that acidified clouds, fog, snow, sleet, and rain. One such program is the Adirondack Long Term Monitoring Program. The ALTM has been documenting changes in the chemistry of lakes, streams, and clouds in the Adirondack Mountains since the 1980s.More than 20 chemical parameters are measured in each ALTM water sample.

NASA Unveils Design for Message Heading to Jupiter’s Moon Europa
“The plate combines the best humanity has to offer across the universe – science, technology, education, art, and math. The message of connection through water, essential for all forms of life as we know it, perfectly illustrates Earth’s tie to this mysterious ocean world we are setting out to explore.”Reaching Out to the CosmosIn 2030, after a 1.6-billion-mile (2.6-billion-kilometer) journey, Europa Clipper will begin orbiting Jupiter, making 49 close flybys of Europa. To determine if there are conditions that could support life, the spacecraft’s powerful suite of science instruments will gather data about the moon’s subsurface ocean, icy crust, thin atmosphere, and space environment. The electronics for those instruments are housed in a massive metal vault designed to protect them from Jupiter’s punishing radiation. The commemorative plate will seal an opening in the vault. Learn more about how Europa Clipper’s vault plate engravings were designed and the inspiration for the plate’s multilayered message. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech Because searching for habitable conditions is central to the mission, the Drake Equation is etched onto the plate as well – on the inward-facing side. Astronomer Frank Drake developed the mathematical formulation in 1961 to estimate the possibility of finding advanced civilizations beyond Earth. The equation has inspired and guided research in astrobiology and related fields ever since.In addition, artwork on the inward-facing side of the plate will include a reference to the radio frequencies considered plausible for interstellar communication, symbolizing how humanity uses this radio band to listen for messages from the cosmos. These particular frequencies match the radio waves emitted in space by the components of water and are known by astronomers as the “water hole.” On the plate, they are depicted as radio emission lines.Need Some Space?

 Finally, the plate includes a portrait of one of the founders of planetary science, Ron Greeley, whose early efforts to develop a Europa mission two decades ago laid the foundation for Europa Clipper.“We’ve packed a lot of thought and inspiration into this plate design, as we have into this mission itself,” says Project Scientist Robert Pappalardo of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California.
