TITLE 4. A LTERNATIVE ENERGY AND ADVANCED TRANSPORTATION FINANCING AUTHORITY COMMERCIAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY FINANCING PROGRAM The California Alternative Energy and Advanced Transportation Financing Authority (the “Authority” or “CAEATFA”), organized and operating pursuant to Division 16 (commencing with

section 26000) of the California Public Resources Code (the “Act”) — pur - suant to the authority vested in it by the Public Re - sources Code

Section 26009 to promulgate regula - tions and Public Resources Code

Section 26011 to pro- vide financial assistance to a participating party, and acting pursuant to the Memorandum of Agreement (“MOA”) between CAEATFA and the California Pub- lic Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) which sets forth the policies and procedures for establishment of a se - ries of ratepayer–funded pilot programs as authorized and described in the initial CPUC–approved Decision 13–09–044, Decision Implementing 2013–14 Energy Efficiency Financing Pilot Programs (the “Decision”), issued September 20, 2013 and subsequent CPUC ac - tions 1 — proposes to amend the Commercial Energy Efficiency Financing Program regulations described below after considering all comments, objections, and recommendations regarding the proposed action.

Section 44 of the Cal - ifornia Code of Regulations. Such additional written comments should be addressed to the Agency Contact Person identified in this notice. AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE Authority: Public Resources Code

Section 26006 and

Section 26006 and 26009 of the Public Resources Code authorizes the Authority to adopt necessary reg- ulations relating to its authority established by the Act, and Public Resources Code 26011 establishes the au- thority to provide financial assistance to a participat - ing party. Reference: Public Resources Code Sections 26002, 26002.5, 26003(a) (3) (A), 26003(a) (6), 26003(a) (7) (A), 26003(a) (8) (A), 26011 and 26040.

On September 19, 2013, the CPUC approved Deci - sion 13–09–044 and requested the Authority act as the master administrator of the California Hub for Energy Efficiency Financing (“CHEEF”), funded by ratepay - er funds collected by the four investor–owned utili - ties: Pacific Gas and Electric Company, San Diego Gas & Electric Company, Southern California Edi - son Company, and Southern California Gas Compa- ny (collectively the “IOUs”).

CAEATFA ’s purpose is to advance the State’s goals of reducing the levels of greenhouse gas emissions, increasing the deployment of sustainable and renewable energy sources, imple - menting measures that increase the efficiency of the use of energy, creating high quality employment op -

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2026, VOLUME NUMBER 26–Z 844 portunities, and lessening the State’s dependence on fossil fuels. The Authority’s statute enables it to provide financial assistance to various participating parties that carry out eligible projects. In July 2014, CAEATFA received initial Legislative budget au - thority to administer the CHEEF functions and sub - sequently entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the CPUC and a receivables contract with the IOUs to implement the CHEEF.

INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW Existing law establishes the California Alterna - tive Energy and Advanced Transportation Financ - ing Authority and authorizes the Authority to pro - vide “financial assistance” to “participating par - ties” for the implementation of “projects” as those terms are defined in Public Resources Code Sec - tion 26003.

A Memorandum of Agreement between CAEATFA and the CPUC sets forth the poli - cies and procedures for establishment of a series of ratepayer–funded programs as authorized and de - scribed in the CPUC–approved Decision 13–09–044, Decision Implementing 2013–14 Energy Efficiency Fi- nancing Pilot Programs, and associated governing ac - tions (“Decision”). The Decision established the California Hub for Energy Efficient Financing (“CHEEF”) to be admin - istered by CAEATFA.

CAEATFA was authorized to develop and implement a number of energy efficien - cy financing programs, intended to attract a greater amount of private capital to the energy efficiency ret - rofit market. The programs would make use of a credit enhancement to mitigate risk for finance companies, allowing them to offer more attractive rates and terms and to approve financing for individuals and business- es who might not be approved otherwise. The Decision also authorized on–bill repayment for several sectors including the commercial sector.

Through on–bill re - payment, customers can repay energy–related finance agreements through their utility bills. The Office of Administrative Law (“OAL”) first ap- proved emergency regulations for the Commercial En- ergy Efficiency Financing Program in December 2018. Following a period of financing company and contrac- tor enrollment, the program was launched for small business participants in May 2019. The Certificate of Compliance was completed in December 2019.

The Program was initially known publicly as the “Small Business Financing Program” and, beginning in Au - gust 2021, as the “GoGreen Business Energy Financ - ing Program” or just “GoGreen Business.” In early 2024, program staff adopted changes to in - corporate the program’s affordable multifamily pro - gram into GoGreen Business to have a single program for all multifamily and commercial lending. This ap - proach allows lenders to have consolidated coverage for both property types.

In conversation with commu - nity banks and other lenders with multifamily prod - ucts, staff learned that several elements of program regulations conflicted with industry standard practices in this sector. Staff solicited input from lenders in this space and began the approach to update program reg - ulations to better align with industry practices. Staff also began emergency regulations to address the need for funding to rebuild areas in California damaged by wildfires. To this end, Authority staff proposed mak - ing modifications through the emergency process in August of 2025.

As part of the emergency rulemaking, CAEAT - FA made publicly available the proposed modified emergency stakeholder regulations, held stakeholder discussions soliciting input, and conducted a virtual public workshop on August 25, 2025 followed by a 10–day public comment period. Two emergency regu- lations were approved by OAL, the wildfire regulations amendments were approved on September 29, 2025 (OAL File Number 2025–0917–01E) and the multi - family regulations amendments were approved on No- vember 6, 2025 (OAL File Number 2025–1027–01E).

The proposed regulations associated with this No - tice seek to make permanent most of the emergency modifications. They clarify eligibility of properties destroyed in a natural disaster for financing through the program, and make amendments to better align program requirements on lending to industry prac - tices in the multifamily sector. These regulations are the result of stakeholder comments obtained since im- plementation in 2019 as well as during the emergency rulemaking process.

Anticipated Benefits of the Proposed Action: Affordable housing is a growing need in California, along with the increasing impact of climate change. These amendments made with input from communi - ty lenders are intended to accelerate energy–saving property upgrades to make affordable housing more readily available, drive down tenants’ utility bills, and mitigate the impact of climate change through reduc - ing greenhouse gas emissions produced by energy generation. Evaluation of Inconsistency/Incompatibility with Existing State Regulations: Government Code

Section 11346.5(a) (3) (

D) re - quires that the notice of proposed rulemaking include, “[an] evaluation of whether the proposed regulation is inconsistent or incompatible with existing state reg - ulations.” CAEATFA ’s Staff reviewed the California Code of Regulations and found no existing regula - tions with which there might be inconsistency or in - compatibility. Therefore, CAEATFA believes that the

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2026, VOLUME NUMBER 26–Z 845 proposed regulation is neither inconsistent nor incom- patible with existing state regulations. DISCLOSURES REGARDING THE PROPOSED ACTION The Executive Director of CAEATFA has made the following determinations regarding the effect of the regulations: Mandate on local agencies or school districts: None. Cost or savings to any state agency: None. Cost to any local agency or school district which must be reimbursed in accordance with Govern - ment Code sections 17500 through 17630: None.

Other nondiscretionary cost or savings imposed on local agencies: None. Cost or savings in federal funding to the state: None. Significant effect on housing costs: None. Significant, statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting businesses including the abili - ty of California businesses to compete with busi - nesses in other states: The Authority has made the determination that the proposed regulations will not have a significant, statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting businesses, including the ability of California businesses to compete with businesses in other states.

Participation in the Program is voluntary for California businesses. For those businesses that choose to participate, they are likely to access financ - ing at better rates and terms than they would find out - side of the Program, which provides a benefit. In fact, the Authority finds that the proposed regulation will have a positive effect on the participating customers as well as the State’s economy and environment gen - erally as a result of reducing the cost of financing, po- tential utility bill savings and reduction of greenhouse gases.

Effect on Small Business: The proposed regula - tions will not have an adverse impact on small busi - nesses in California. Participation is voluntary and designed to offer access to attractive financing that a small business otherwise may not have. Cost Impacts on Representative Private Person or Business: The Authority is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or busi - ness would necessarily incur in reasonable compli - ance with the proposed action.

RESULTS OF ECONOMIC I M PACT A NA LYSIS The Authority finds that the regulations will have a positive effect on the state’s economy as studies have cited access to attractive financing as a significant im- pediment for businesses to invest in energy upgrades. Therefore, the Authority finds there may be increased economic activity for manufacturers and installers of energy efficiency measures, finance companies who participate in the Program, and contractors and project developers who participate in the program.

Addition - ally, businesses that make energy upgrades are likely to experience energy savings which could be reinvest- ed into their businesses and into the state economy as a whole.

Creation or Elimination of California Jobs: The Authority finds that the regulations may have a posi - tive impact on the creation of jobs within California, through manufacturers of energy efficiency measures benefitting from increased demand, contractors and project developers hired to install measures and from businesses participating in the Program who save on energy bills and are able to reinvest those savings into their businesses and hire additional workers. The Au - thority has not estimated the number of green jobs that may be created as a result of this Program as partici - pation is voluntary.

Creation, or Elimination, of California Business- es: As the regulations provide an incentive to finance companies offering credit to California business own- ers, the elimination of businesses within California is improbable. The regulations are unlikely to signifi - cantly affect the creation of new businesses within the State of California. Expansion of Existing Businesses in California The Authority finds there would be increased eco - nomic activity for certain businesses of project de - velopers and contractors who conduct energy effi - ciency retrofits, thus potentially expanding existing businesses.

Benefits of The Regulation to The Health and Welfare of California Residents, Worker Safety, and The State’s Environment: The goal of the Pro - gram is to increase access to financing for California businesses to invest in energy efficient upgrades, thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helping meet California’s ambitious environmental goals.

GENERAL PUBLIC INTEREST DEPARTMENT OF TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL NOTICE OF PROPOSED HSAA AND CERCLA ADMINISTRATIVE DE MINIMIS SETTLEMENT FOR THE BKK CLASS I LANDFILL 30–Day Public Comment Period: June 26, 2026 through July 27, 2026 WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED: The California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) invites public comment on a Proposed Administrative Consent Order and Settlement Agreement —

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2026, VOLUME NUMBER 26–Z 848 De Minimis Contributors (“Proposed Order and Agreement”), Docket Number HSA–FY25/26–106. In accordance with applicable law, DTSC hereby provides notice of a proposed de minimis settlement concerning the BKK Class I Landfill in West Covina, California (the “Site”).

DTSC proposes to enter into this or - der and de minimis settlement pursuant to the Carpenter–Presley–Tanner Hazardous Substance Ac - count Act, Health and Safety Code sections 78650, 78870, 79650, 79670, and 79920, and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liabil - ity Act (“CERCLA”) sections 107 and 113 (42 U.S.C. §§ 9607, 9613). This settlement is intended to resolve liabilities of the 98 settling parties identified below (individually, “De Minimis Settling Party,” and collec- tively, “De Minimis Settling Parties”) for past and fu - ture response costs incurred at the Site.

The Proposed Order and Agreement serves as an administrative or - der and settlement with DTSC, and a private party settlement with the BKK Working Group (“BWG”), a group comprised of potentially responsible parties that have incurred response costs related to the Site. The De Minimis Settling Parties will receive a Site–wide covenant not to sue from DTSC and the BWG, as well as contribution protection for the specific matters ad - dressed in the settlement, pursuant to

section 79920(

b) of the California Health and Safety Code, and

section 113(f) (2) of CERCLA (42 U.S.C. § 9613(f) (2)). The De Minimis Settling Parties collectively sent a combined total of 38,367.96 tons of waste to the Site, which represents 0.74 percent of the approximately 5.18 million tons of manifested waste disposed of at the Site. This settlement requires the De Minimis Set- tling Parties to collectively pay a combined total of $17,933,568.16. Ten percent of the settlement amount will be paid to DTSC as reimbursement for past re - sponse costs relating to the Site.

After certain costs related to the Proposed Order and Agreement are re - imbursed to DTSC and the BWG, as specified in the Second Disbursement Amendment to the Third Par - tial Consent Decree (see Cal. Dep’t of Toxic Substanc- es Control v. Am. Honda Motor Co. Inc., Number 2:15–CV–00729–DDP–AJW (C.D. Cal., Feb. 2, 2015)), the remaining settlement amount will be dis - tributed to the Third–Party PRP Settlement Escrow Account, which will fund future response actions at the Site.
