State Air Resources Board: regulatory authority: revocation.

Summary

SB 474 removes the board’s authority to adopt, revise, or repeal greenhouse‑gas regulations and reinterprets any existing grant of that power as merely advisory. The board may still keep regulations that were in place before Jan. 1, 2026, but any future action must be proposed as legislation. This shifts climate‑policy control from the board to the state Legislature.
