Assembly Bill 109 allocated $11 million in Cap-and-Trade funds to the Strategic Growth Council for the development of a climate change research program. The Research Investment Plan will guide the development and implementation of this program. The first sections of the document outline program goals, research priorities, and program structure. The last section of the document, still under development, will provide detail on program administration and application guidelines.
