City Council Agenda Report Meeting Date:February 6, 2024 From:Robert Sousa, Chief of Police Department:Police Submitted by:Gustavo Herrera, Lieutenant - Services Division Subject Swearing-In Ceremony for Various Personnel in the Police Department Recommendation Administer the Oath of Office to Police Officers Aaron Perry and Bryan Siva; Sergeants Edward Hernandez and Carlos Ourique; and Lieutenant Gabriel Martinez. Background The City Council typically hosts a public Swearing-In Ceremony when new Police Officers are hired or sworn personnel are promoted in the Vernon Police Department (PD). During the past several months, there have been several Police Officer and Supervisory level positions vacated due to retirements and promotions in the PD. The City Council also approved the addition of a third Police Lieutenant position, effective January 1, 2024. The PD has filled these vacancies as leaving these positions vacant would negatively impact the necessary patrol deployment, and would increase overtime costs to cover staff shortages. To fill the vacancies, PD, with assistance from the Human Resources (HR) Department, conducted the necessary recruitment processes. Based on a review of the qualifications of each eligible candidate, and the completion of extensive background investigations, Aaron Perry and Bryan Silva were selected as the best qualified candidates to fill the vacant Police Officer positions. PD and HR also conducted separate promotional examination processes to establish eligibility lists for the positions of Police Sergeant and Police Lieutenant. Based on the results of the exams and the qualifications of each candidate, Edward Hernandez and Carlos Ourique were the best-qualified candidates for the two vacant Police Sergeant positions, and Gabriel Martinez was the best-qualified candidate for the position of Police Lieutenant. The recently hired and promoted sworn personnel have been invited to attend the February 6 Council Meeting with their families for a public swearing-in and badge pinning ceremony.

The robotic inspection will examine approximately 0.04 miles of 10” pipe. A stopple will be installed on the line for the robotic tool to be launched and received from. The proposed stopple location is on the City of Vernon Water Department Property. Construction work to excavate (within the station), install the stopple, and complete the internal inspection of the line will be day work. Construction work in the street (for the south direct examination) is planned as night work. The excavation and the direct examination of the line (in the street) will not occur consecutively (approx. 3 weeks apart). Traffic control will only be implemented during south direct examination construction and inspection. In addition, the fence between the station and the City of Vernon Water Department will be removed during construction however will be replaced once construction is complete. Potholing to determine the depth of the pipeline will be required. •A TRE is needed for equipment storage, parking, and construction staging (location attached). We will continue to work with the County Fire Department if training is planned during our construction. Page 18 of 274305 South Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, CA 90058January 08, 2024 .. ..

The final report was published in September 2022, and it provides a detailed plan for the City to capture the health and environmental benefits of a healthy tree canopy. Following the final tree canopy assessment, Vernon’s Public Works Department embarked on a mission to expand the City’s tree canopy.

(c) The making by LESSEE of any general arrangement or general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) LESSEE becoming a “debtor” as defined in the federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed against LESSEE, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days; (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of LESSEE’s assets located at the Premises or of LESSEE’s interest in this LEASE, where possession is not restored to LESSEE within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of LESSEE’s assets located at the Premises or of LESSEE’s interest in this LEASE, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days. 21. REMEDIES. If LESSEE is in default, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which CITY may have at law or in equity, CITY has the following rights and remedies which are not exclusive but are cumulative: (a) CITY can, with or without terminating this LEASE, reenter the Premises and remove all property and persons therefrom, and any such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost and for the account of LESSEE. If CITY elects to reenter or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, and if CITY has not elected to terminate this LEASE, CITY may either recover all rent as it becomes due under this LEASE or relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for such term or terms and upon such provisions as CITY may deem advisable and will have the right to make repairs to and alterations of the Premises. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by CITY is to be construed as an election to terminate this LEASE unless a written notice of such intention is given to LESSEE by CITY. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by CITY because of LESSEE's default, CITY may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this LEASE because of such default. If CITY elects to relet the Premises without terminating this LEASE, then rent received by CITY therefrom will be applied as follows: (i) First, to any indebtedness from LESSEE to CITY other than rent due from LESSEE; .. .. Item 9 Page 6 of 12 TreePeople Lease Agreement Page 7 of 11 ____________________ (ii) Second, to all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, for maintenance, repairs or alterations, incurred by CITY in connection with reletting the Premises; and (iii) Third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid under this LEASE and the residue, if any, will be held by CITY and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable under this LEASE and to any damages and other amounts which CITY is otherwise entitled to under this LEASE. Should that portion of such rent received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable hereunder during that month by LESSEE, then LESSEE agrees to pay such deficiency to CITY immediately upon demand. In no event will LESSEE be entitled to any excess rent received by CITY from such reletting. (b) CITY can terminate LESSEE's right to possession of the Premises at any time. No act by CITY other than giving written notice to LESSEE will terminate this LEASE. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver on CITY's initiative to protect CITY's interest under this LEASE shall not constitute a termination of LESSEE's right to possession. (c) Without waiving the default, CITY can, at its sole option, pay such sums and/or take such actions as are necessary in CITY’s reasonable judgment in order to cure the default, and all sums expended or incurred by CITY in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by law, shall be paid by LESSEE to CITY immediately on demand. 22.

Item 9 Page 12 of 12 City Council Agenda Report Meeting Date:February 6, 2024 From:Todd Dusenberry, General Manager of Public Utilities Department:Public Utilities Submitted by:Adriana Ramos, Administrative Analyst Subject Renewable Energy Credit Confirmation with Silver Peak Energy, LLC Recommendation A. Find the action is not in reference to a “project” subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Guidelines Section 15378 because it involves the continuing administrative activity of purchasing power and resource adequacy; and even if it were a “project” subject to CEQA, the approval requested is exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a significant effect on the environment, and any construction that may occur by a private party in the future in reliance on this approval would be subject to CEQA review by another governmental agency at the time when actual details of any physical proposal would be more than speculative; B. Approve, as to form, the Edison Electric Institute Master Power Purchase and Sale Agreement, in substantially the same form as submitted, for the purpose of buying and selling power and resource adequacy consistent with the Transaction Authority as defined in the Energy Risk Management Policy; and C. Approve and authorize the General Manager of Public Utilities to execute the Renewable Energy Credit Confirmation with Silver Peak Energy, LLC in substantially the same form as submitted, for the Sale and Purchase of Portfolio Content Category Product 1 Energy in the amount-not-to exceed of $1,674,000. Background State regulations require that utility providers (utilities) obtain a certain amount of renewable power sources to offset traditional energy sources. In addition to, or as an alternative to, procuring power from renewable sources, in order to meet these renewable requirements, utilities can also purchase Renewable Energy Credits (RECs). RECs demonstrate that electricity was generated from an eligible renewable energy resource and are purchased or sold by eligible entities. Vernon Public Utilities (VPU) procures power from various sources including a number of projects that are renewable such as the Daggett Solar plus BESS project. Nonetheless, in order to meet its State mandated renewable requirements, VPU must, at times, purchase RECs. The proposed Edison Electric Institute (EEI) Master Power Purchase and Sale Agreement (Master Agreement) and Renewable Energy Credit Confirmation with Silver Peak Energy, LLC (Credit Confirmation) would enable VPU to purchase or sell RECs under the Master Agreement as necessary. The Master Agreement is a standardized contract used by utilities to govern purchases and sales of wholesale electricity, including RECs. The Agreement standardizes terms and conditions for the purchase, sale, and trading of power for utilities. VPU is seeking approval to purchase RECs from Silver Peak Energy, LLC (Silver Peak Energy) under the general terms and conditions of the Master Agreement. It is to the City’s benefit and in the public interest of the customers and residents of the City to enter into a Credit Confirmation for the Sale and Purchase of Portfolio Content Category Product 1 (PCC1) Energy with Silver Peak Energy for the sale and purchase of RECs between Silver Peak Energy and the City for the purpose of meeting the City’s renewable requirements. Pursuant to Section 4 of the Energy Risk Management Policy (ERMP) adopted by the City Council on November 15, 2022 via Resolution No. 2022-40, all master or .. .. Item 10 Page 1 of 3 enabling agreements need to be approved as to form by the Energy Risk Management Committee (ERMC) and by the City Council. On January 31, 2024, the ERMC reviewed and approved the proposed Master Agreement as to form. The Credit Confirmation outlines the general terms and conditions of the agreement between the City and Silver Peak Energy. The terms of the Credit Confirmation are subject to the Master Agreement, as modified by the Cover Sheet in Exhibit B, and incorporated by reference, all of which form a part of the Master Agreement. Once the Credit Confirmation is fully executed, the City will be able to transact with Silver Peak Energy. The expected term of the Credit Confirmation to purchase RECs from Silver Peak Energy is between March 1, 2024, and June 30, 2024. The maximum limit for the purchase of RECs is 33,480 megawatt-hours (MWh) at $50/MWh. VPU will then own the REC, and thus, can claim to have purchased renewable energy. It is beneficial to the City, and it is the industry standard to enter into Master and Enabling Agreements that deal with buying and selling power, including RECs. The City will benefit from competitive pricing by purchasing RECs from Silver Peak Energy by entering into this transaction. All agreements that VPU has established with all counterparties are open-ended, with no expiration date. However, as noted above, the purchase of RECs in this transaction has an expected term of four (4) months. Examples of similar agreements include those by the North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB) and the Western System Power Pool (WSPP) agreements. The NAESB agreement is a contract for the sale and purchase of natural gas with a standardized set of business practices and standards that most buyers and sellers have adopted for their natural gas and electricity transactions. The WSPP agreement is a master agreement used for short-term and term physical and financial transactions with WSPP members. The key objectives of the Credit Confirmation with Silver Peak Energy include: •Expanding the City’s counterparty pool •Creating an opportunity for better pricing, especially for RECs •Maximizing trading capability Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code Sections 3.32.110(A)(6) and 3.32.110(B)(1), the proposed Credit Confirmation is exempt from competitive bidding and competitive selection as this contract will be used for the sale and purchase of electricity, including RECs. Staff recommends the City Council approve, as to form, the standard EEI Master Power Purchase and Sale Agreement for the purpose of buying and selling power and resource adequacy consistent with the Transaction Authority, as defined in Appendix D of the ERMP; and approve the REC Confirmation with Silver Peak Energy in the amount of $1,674,000, which is based on an amount not-to-exceed 33,480 MWh at a contract price of $50/MWh. The Agreements have been reviewed and approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office. Fiscal Impact The fiscal impact is not-to-exceed $1,674,000. Approval of this action would require an additional appropriation of $1,674,000 for a Transfer Out from the Electric Fund Budget, Resource Management, Natural Gas Expense, Account No. 055-050-590-520160 and a Fund Transfer In the Electric Fund, Resource Management, Renewable Energy Credit, Account No. 055-050-590- 520154. .. ..

Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in a Transaction, all invoices under this Master Agreement shall be due and payable in accordance with each Party’s invoice instructions on or before the later of the twentieth (20th) day of each month, or tenth (10th) day after receipt of the invoice or, if such day is not a Business Day, then on the next Business Day. Each Party will make payments by electronic funds transfer, or by other mutually agreeable method(s), to the account designated by the other Party. Any amounts not paid by the due date will be deemed delinquent and will accrue interest at the Interest Rate, such interest to be calculated from and including the due date to but excluding the date the delinquent amount is paid in full. 6.3 Disputes and Adjustments of Invoices. A Party may, in good faith, dispute the correctness of any invoice or any adjustment to an invoice, rendered under this Agreement or adjust any invoice for any arithmetic or computational error within twelve (12) months of the date the invoice, or adjustment to an invoice, was rendered.

Any dispute with respect to an invoice is waived unless the other Party is notified in accordance with this Section 6.3 within twelve (12) months after the invoice is rendered or any specific adjustment to the invoice is made. If an invoice is not rendered within twelve (12) months after the close of the month during which performance of a Transaction occurred, the right to payment for such performance is waived. 6.4 Netting of Payments. The Parties hereby agree that they shall discharge mutual debts and payment obligations due and owing to each other on the same date pursuant to all Transactions through netting, in which case all amounts owed by each Party to the other Party for the purchase and sale of Products during the monthly billing period under this Master Agreement, including any related damages calculated pursuant to Article Four (unless one of the Parties elects to accelerate payment of such amounts as permitted by Article Four), interest, and payments or credits, shall be netted so that only the excess amount remaining due shall be paid by the Party who owes it. 6.5 Payment Obligation Absent Netting. If no mutual debts or payment obligations exist and only one Party owes a debt or obligation to the other during the monthly billing period, including, but not limited to, any related damage amounts calculated pursuant to Article Four, interest, and payments or credits, that Party shall pay such sum in full when due. .. ..

The premium amount for the purchase of an Option shall be paid within two (2) Business Days of receipt of an invoice from the Option Seller. Upon exercise of an Option, payment for the Product underlying such Option shall be due in accordance with Section 6.1. 6.8 Transaction Netting. If the Parties enter into one or more Transactions, which in conjunction with one or more other outstanding Transactions, constitute Offsetting Transactions, then all such Offsetting Transactions may by agreement of the Parties, be netted into a single Transaction under which: (a) the Party obligated to deliver the greater amount of Energy will deliver the difference between the total amount it is obligated to deliver and the total amount to be delivered to it under the Offsetting Transactions, and (b) the Party owing the greater aggregate payment will pay the net difference owed between the Parties. Each single Transaction resulting under this Section shall be deemed part of the single, indivisible contractual arrangement between the parties, and once such resulting Transaction occurs, outstanding obligations under the Offsetting Transactions which are satisfied by such offset shall terminate.

An “Into” Product shall be subject to the following provisions: 1. Prescheduling and Notification. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, not later than the prescheduling deadline of 11:00 a.m. CPT on the Business Day before the next delivery day or as otherwise agreed to by Buyer and Seller, Seller shall notify Buyer (“Seller’s Notification”) of Seller’s immediate upstream counterparty and the Interface (the “Designated Interface”) where Seller shall deliver the Product for the next delivery day, and Buyer shall notify Seller of Buyer’s immediate downstream counterparty. 2. Availability of “Firm Transmission” to Buyer at Designated Interface; “Timely Request for Transmission,” “ADI” and “Available Transmission.” In determining availability to Buyer of next-day firm transmission (“Firm Transmission”) from the Designated Interface, a “Timely Request for Transmission” shall mean a properly completed request for Firm Transmission made by Buyer in accordance with the controlling tariff procedures, which request shall be submitted to the Receiving Transmission Provider no later than 30 minutes after delivery of Seller’s Notification, provided, however, if the Receiving Transmission Provider is not accepting requests for Firm Transmission at the time of Seller’s Notification, then such request by Buyer shall be made within 30 minutes of the time when the Receiving Transmission Provider first opens thereafter for purposes of accepting requests for Firm Transmission. Pursuant to the terms hereof, delivery of the Product may under certain circumstances be redesignated to occur at an Interface other than the Designated Interface (any such alternate designated interface, an “ADI”) either (a) on the Receiving Transmission Provider’s transmission system border or (b) within the control area of the Receiving Transmission Provider if the Product is from a source of generation in that control area, which ADI, in either case, the Receiving Transmission Provider identifies as available for delivery of the Product in or into its control area using either firm or non-firm transmission, as available on a day-ahead or hourly basis (individually or collectively referred to as “Available Transmission”) within the Receiving Transmission Provider’s transmission system. 3.

If the Firm Transmission purchased by Buyer within the Receiving Transmission Provider’s transmission system from the Designated Interface ceases to be available to Buyer for any reason, or if Seller is unable to deliver the Product at the Designated Interface for any reason except Buyer’s non- performance, then at Seller’s choice from among the following, Seller shall: (a) to the extent Firm Transmission is available to Buyer from an ADI on a day-ahead basis, require Buyer to purchase such Firm Transmission from such ADI, and schedule and deliver the affected portion of the Product to such ADI on the basis of Buyer’s purchase of Firm Transmission, or (b) require Buyer to purchase non- firm transmission, and schedule and deliver the affected portion of the Product on the basis of Buyer’s purchase of non-firm transmission from the Designated Interface or an ADI designated by Seller, or (c) to the extent firm transmission is available on an hourly basis, require Buyer to purchase firm transmission, and schedule and deliver the affected portion of the Product on the basis of Buyer’s purchase of such hourly firm transmission from the Designated Interface or an ADI designated by Seller. ii. If the Available Transmission utilized by Buyer as required by Seller pursuant to Section 3A(i) ceases to be available to Buyer for any reason, then Seller shall again have those alternatives stated in Section 3A(i) in order to satisfy its obligations. iii. Seller’s obligation to schedule and deliver the Product at an ADI is subject to Buyer’s obligation referenced in Section 4B to cooperate reasonably therewith. If Buyer and Seller cannot complete the scheduling and/or delivery at an ADI, then Buyer shall be deemed to have satisfied its receipt obligations to Seller and Seller shall be deemed to have failed its delivery obligations to Buyer, and Seller shall be liable to Buyer for amounts determined pursuant to Article Four. iv. In each instance in which Buyer and Seller must make alternative scheduling arrangements for delivery at the Designated Interface or an ADI pursuant to Sections 3A(i) or (ii), and Firm Transmission had been purchased by both Seller and Buyer into and within the Receiving Transmission Provider’s transmission system as to the scheduled delivery which could not be completed as a result of the interruption or curtailment of such Firm Transmission, Buyer and Seller shall bear their respective transmission expenses and/or associated congestion charges incurred in connection with efforts to complete delivery by such alternative scheduling and delivery arrangements. In any instance except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, Buyer and Seller must make alternative scheduling arrangements for delivery at the Designated Interface or an ADI under Sections 3A(i) or (ii), Seller shall be responsible for any additional transmission purchases and/or associated congestion charges incurred by Buyer in connection with such alternative scheduling arrangements. .. ..

Timely Request for Firm Transmission Made by Buyer but Rejected by the Receiving Transmission Provider. If Buyer’s Timely Request for Firm Transmission is rejected by the Receiving Transmission Provider because of unavailability of Firm Transmission from the Designated Interface, then Buyer shall notify Seller within 15 minutes after receipt of the Receiving Transmission Provider’s notice of rejection (“Buyer’s Rejection Notice”). If Buyer timely notifies Seller of such unavailability of Firm Transmission from the Designated Interface, then Seller shall be obligated either (1) to the extent Firm Transmission is available to Buyer from an ADI on a day -ahead basis, to require Buyer to purchase (at Buyer’s own expense) such Firm Transmission from such ADI and schedule and deliver the Product to such ADI on the basis of Buyer’s purchase of Firm Transmission, and thereafter the provisions in Section 3A shall apply, or (2) to require Buyer to purchase (at Buyer’s own expense) non -firm transmission, and schedule and deliver the Product on the basis of Buyer’s purchase of non-firm transmission from the Designated Interface or an ADI designated by the Seller, in which case Seller shall bear the risk of interruption or curtailment of the non-firm transmission; provided, however, that if the non-firm transmission is interrupted or curtailed or if Seller is unable to deliver the Product for any reason, Seller shall have the right to schedule and deliver the Product to another ADI in order to satisfy its delivery obligations, in which case Seller shall be responsible for any additional transmission purchases and/or associated congestion charges incurred by Buyer in connection with Seller’s inability to deliver the Product as originally prescheduled. If Buyer fails to timely notify Seller of the unavailability of Firm Transmission, then Buyer shall bear the risk of interruption or curtailment of transmission from the Designated Interface, and the provisions of Section 3D shall apply. C. Timely Request for Firm Transmission Made by Buyer, Accepted by the Receiving Transmission Provider and not Purchased by Buyer. If Buyer’s Timely Request for Firm Transmission is accepted by the Receiving Transmission Provider but Buyer elects to purchase non-firm transmission rather than Firm Transmission to take delivery of the Product, then Buyer shall bear the risk of interruption or curtailment of transmission from the Designated Interface. In such circumstances, if Seller’s delivery is interrupted as a result of transmission relied upon by Buyer from the Designated Interface, then Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations to Buyer, Buyer shall be deemed to have failed to receive the Product and Buyer shall be liable to Seller for amounts determined pursuant to Article Four. D. No Timely Request for Firm Transmission Made by Buyer, or Buyer Fails to Timely Send Buyer’s Rejection Notice. If Buyer fails to make a Timely Request for Firm Transmission or Buyer fails to timely deliver Buyer’s Rejection Notice, then Buyer shall bear the risk of interruption or curtailment of transmission from the Designated Interface. In such circumstances, if Seller’s delivery is interrupted as a result of transmission relied upon by Buyer from the Designated Interface, then Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations to Buyer, Buyer shall be deemed to have failed to receive the Product and Buyer shall be liable to Seller for amounts determined pursuant to Article Four. .. ..

Seller shall be responsible for transmission required to deliver the Product to the Designated Interface or ADI, as the case may be. It is expressly agreed that Seller is not required to utilize Firm Transmission for its delivery obligations hereunder, and Seller shall bear the risk of utilizing non-firm transmission. If Seller’s scheduled delivery to Buyer is interrupted as a result of Buyer’s attempted transmission of the Product beyond the Receiving Transmission Provider’s system border, then Seller will be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations to Buyer, Buyer shall be deemed to have failed to receive the Product and Buyer shall be liable to Seller for damages pursuant to Article Four. B. Buyer’s Responsibilities. Buyer shall be responsible for transmission required to receive and transmit the Product at and from the Designated Interface or ADI, as the case may be, and except as specifically provided in Section 3A and 3B, shall be responsible for any costs associated with transmission therefrom. If Seller is attempting to complete the designation of an ADI as a result of Seller’s rights and obligations hereunder, Buyer shall co-operate reasonably with Seller in order to effect such alternate designation. 5. Force Majeure. An “Into” Product shall be subject to the “Force Majeure” provisions in Section 1.23. 6. Multiple Parties in Delivery Chain Involving a Designated Interface. Seller and Buyer recognize that there may be multiple parties involved in the delivery and receipt of the Product at the Designated Interface or ADI to the extent that (1) Seller may be purchasing the Product from a succession of other sellers (“Other Sellers”), the first of which Other Sellers shall be causing the Product to be generated from a source (“Source Seller”) and/or (2) Buyer may be selling the Product to a succession of other buyers (“Other Buyers”), the last of which Other Buyers shall be using the Product to serve its energy needs (“Sink Buyer”). Seller and Buyer further recognize that in certain Transactions neither Seller nor Buyer may originate the decision as to either (a) the original identification of the Designated Interface or ADI (which designation may be made by the Source Seller) or (b) the Timely Request for Firm Transmission or the purchase of other Available Transmission (which request may be made by the Sink Buyer). Accordingly, Seller and Buyer agree as follows: A. If Seller is not the Source Seller, then Seller shall notify Buyer of the Designated Interface promptly after Seller is notified thereof by the Other Seller with whom Seller has a contractual relationship, but in no event may such designation of the Designated Interface be later than the prescheduling deadline pertaining to the Transaction between Buyer and Seller pursuant to Section 1. B. If Buyer is not the Sink Buyer, then Buyer shall notify the Other Buyer with whom Buyer has a contractual relationship of the Designated Interface promptly after Seller notifies Buyer thereof, with the intent being that the party bearing actual responsibility to secure transmission shall have up to 30 minutes after receipt of the Designated Interface to submit its Timely Request for Firm Transmission. .. ..

Seller and Buyer each agree that any other communications or actions required to be given or made in connection with this “Into Product” (including without limitation, information relating to an ADI) shall be made or taken promptly after receipt of the relevant information from the Other Sellers and Other Buyers, as the case may be. D. Seller and Buyer each agree that in certain Transactions time is of the essence and it may be desirable to provide necessary information to Other Sellers and Other Buyers in order to complete the scheduling and delivery of the Product. Accordingly, Seller and Buyer agree that each has the right, but not the obligation, to provide information at its own risk to Other Sellers and Other Buyers, as the case may be, in order to effect the prescheduling, scheduling and delivery of the Product “Native Load” means the demand imposed on an electric utility or an entity by the requirements of retail customers located within a franchised service territory that the electric utility or entity has statutory obligation to serve. “Non-Firm” means, with respect to a Transaction, that delivery or receipt of the Product may be interrupted for any reason or for no reason, without liability on the part of either Party. “System Firm” means that the Product will be supplied from the owned or controlled generation or pre-existing purchased power assets of the system specified in the Transaction (the “System”) with non-firm transmission to and from the Delivery Point, unless a different Transmission Contingency is specified in a Transaction. Seller’s failure to deliver shall be excused: (i) by an event or circumstance which prevents Seller from performing its obligations, which event or circumstance was not anticipated as of the date the Transaction was agreed to, which is not within the reasonable control of, or the result of the negligence of, the Seller; (ii) by Buyer’s failure to perform; (iii) to the extent necessary to preserve the integrity of, or prevent or limit any instability on, the System; (iv) to the extent the System or the control area or reliability council within which the System operates declares an emergency condition, as determined in the system’s, or the control area’s, or reliability council’s reasonable judgment; or (v) by the interruption or curtailment of transmission to the Delivery Point or by the occurrence of any Transmission Contingency specified in a Transaction as excusing Seller’s performance. Buyer’s failure to receive shall be excused (i) by Force Majeure; (ii) by Seller’s failure to perform, or (iii) by the interruption or curtailment of transmission from the Delivery Point or by the occurrence of any Transmission Contingency specified in a Transaction as excusing Buyer’s performance. In any of such events, neither party shall be liable to the other for any damages, including any amounts determined pursuant to Article Four. “Transmission Contingent” means, with respect to a Transaction, that the performance of either Seller or Buyer (as specified in the Transaction) shall be excused, and no damages shall be payable including any amounts determined pursuant to Article Four, if the transmission for such Transaction is unavailable or interrupted or curtailed for any reason, at any time, anywhere from the Seller’s proposed generating source to the Buyer’s proposed ultimate sink, regardless of whether transmission, if any, that such Party is attempting to secure and/or has purchased for the Product is firm or non-firm. If the transmission (whether firm or non-firm) that Seller or Buyer is attempting to secure is from source to sink is unavailable, this contingency excuses performance for the entire Transaction. If the transmission (whether firm or non-firm) that Seller .. ..

Seller’s failure to deliver under a “Unit Firm” Transaction shall be excused: (i) if the specified generation asset(s) are unavailable as a result of a Forced Outage (as defined in the NERC Generating Unit Availability Data System (GADS) Forced Outage reporting guidelines) or (ii) by an event or circumstance that affects the specified generation asset(s) so as to prevent Seller from performing its obligations, which event or circumstance was not anticipated as of the date the Transaction was agreed to, and which is not within the reasonable control of, or the result of the negligence of, the Seller or (iii) by Buyer’s failure to perform.

Item 10 Page 2 of 18 3 shall not be an Event of Default if Seller has used commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such change in law. STC 6. For purposes of this Agreement, “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not require expenditures by Seller in excess of the Capped Amount. (b) Seller and, if applicable, its successors, represents and warrants that throughout the Delivery Term of this Agreement the Renewable Energy Credits transferred to Buyer conform to the definition and attributes required for compliance with the California Renewables Portfolio Standard, as set forth in California Public Utilities Commission Decision 08-08-028, and as may be modified by subsequent decision of the California Public Utilities Commission or by subsequent legislation. To the extent a change in law occurs after execution of this Agreement that causes this representation and warranty to be materially false or misleading, it shall not be an Event of Default if Seller has used commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such change in law. STC REC-1 (c) Seller warrants that all necessary steps to allow the Renewable Energy Credits transferred to Buyer to be tracked in the Western Renewable Energy Generation Information System will be taken prior to the first delivery under the contract. STC REC-2 (d) This Agreement and the rights and duties of the Parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed, enforced and performed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without regard to principles of conflicts of Law. To the extent enforceable at such time, each Party waives its respective right to any jury trial with respect to any litigation arising under or in connection with this Agreement. STC 17 Transfer of RECs: Prior to the first delivery of RECs under this Confirmation, each Party shall take all necessary steps to allow the RECs transferred by Seller and received by Buyer to be tracked in WREGIS. The transfer of RECs shall be made in accordance with the rules and regulations of WREGIS. After the final certification of the Generating Facility as an ERR, Seller shall transfer RECs associated with the Contract Quantity from its WREGIS account to Buyer’s WREGIS account. If Buyer’s WREGIS account ID is not available as of the Confirmation Effective Date, Buyer shall provide such information to Seller promptly upon receipt of the same. Seller shall deliver all RECs no later than April 1, 2026. Vintage: Calendar Year(s): 2024. Payment: To simplify the settlement process based on the current CAISO market scheduling and settlement protocols, the Parties agree that Seller shall .. .. Item 10 Page 3 of 18 4 schedule and deliver Energy consistent with the Contract Quantity during the Delivery Period with and to the CAISO at the Delivery Point(s) (“Delivered Energy”), and Seller shall receive payment for such Delivered Energy from the CAISO at the Energy Contract Price. Consistent with applicable netting provisions of the Master Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall net such payment for Delivered Energy received by Seller such that the payment for Product that Seller shall receive from Buyer shall be calculated as follows: Payment Due from Buyer to Seller = Delivered Energy * REC Contract Price. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not be separately obligated to pay for Energy under this Transaction. In addition to any audit rights that Buyer may have under the Master Agreement, Seller shall, upon Buyer’s reasonable request, provide additional documentation (which may include meter data as recorded by a CAISO-certified meter) sufficient to confirm the volume of Delivered Energy. Buyer shall transfer to Seller the aforementioned payment within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt of Seller’s invoice (which shall be sent subsequent to each transfer of RECs), or the twentieth (20th) day of the month, whichever is later. If the due date is not a Business Day, then payment shall be due on the next Business Day. Invoices issued by Seller hereunder shall detail the RECs conveyed via WREGIS (i.e., Generating Facility Name, Vintage Month, CEC RPS ID, Delivered Energy, and REC Contract Price). Seller shall provide Buyer with a non-binding estimate of monthly meter data within fifteen (15) Business Days after the end of each month. Applicable Program: State of California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program (“California RPS”), as codified at California Public Utilities Code Section 399.11, et seq., and requiring that a specified percentage of a load-serving entity’s retail sales should be supplied with electricity generated by ERRs. Tracking System: WREGIS. Additional Seller Representations and Warranties: Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that: (a) Seller has the right to sell the Product from the Generating Facility; .. .. Item 10 Page 4 of 18 5 (b) Seller has not sold the Product to be transferred hereunder, or any Green Attribute associated therewith, to any other person or entity; (c) Product transferred hereunder shall be free and clear of all liens or other encumbrances; and (d) Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer, the CEC, and/or the California Public Utilities Commission to provide documentation required to support the Product’s classification as PCC1. Change in Law Provisions: This Confirmation is executed for the express purpose of complying with the California RPS and California Public Utilities Code Section 399.16(b)(1). The Product shall be regulatorily continuing, requiring that Seller use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain compliance with changes in law in the California RPS occurring after the Confirmation Effective Date, provided that Seller costs associated with such compliance shall not exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000) in total (the “Capped Amount”). Seller shall not be obligated to comply with changes in law with respect to Product that was delivered and accepted prior to the change in law if such Product complied as of the date of delivery and acceptance. To the extent that a change in law renders the implementation of this Transaction impossible or impracticable, or otherwise materially changes, or revokes or eliminates, the California RPS, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to amend this Confirmation to maintain the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible. Forward Contract: This Confirmation constitutes a sale of a nonfinancial commodity for deferred shipment or delivery that the Parties intend to be physically settled and is excluded from the term “swap” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Background An Environmental Sustainability Action Plan (ESAP) serves as a detailed long-range strategy to achieve sustainability in the sectors of greenhouse gas emissions, energy transportation, land use, solid waste, water, biological resources, air quality, public health, and economic development. The City’s ESAP was adopted in 2011 and due for an update. One of the duties of the Green Vernon Commission (GVC) is to periodically review the City’s ESAP and make recommendations to City Council regarding amendments to the Plan. At a Special Meeting on August 24, 2022, the Commission directed staff to update the City’s 2011 ESAP and appointed two of its members to a temporary ad hoc committee to work with the Staff Steering Committee to provide support, guidance, and oversight of the ESAP update project. Subsequently, based on a Request for Proposals process, a contract was awarded to Environmental Science Associates (ESA) to update the ESAP. Over a year-long process, ESA engaged with various stakeholders, including residents, the general public, the ESAP Steering Committee, the GVC, and City departments, to gather input on sustainability priorities and develop the ESAP’s goals and strategies. Based on the analysis of data and information collected as part of the project’s outreach and engagement efforts, a draft ESAP was developed in October 2023. The draft ESAP was reviewed by City departments and the GVC on December 12, 2023. Feedback received was incorporated in the final ESAP being presented to the City Council for consideration and adoption. Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

Item 11 Page 6 of 81 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan IntroductionIntroduction 1110 Introduction City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan CHAPTER 1 What is Sustainability and Why Are We Doing This? The City of Vernon (City) has reinforced its commitment to sustainability. Given increasing pressures on environmental resources and the growing risks that the City faces from climate change, the need has never been greater for sustainable solutions that increase community resilience and bring multi-benefits to local businesses, workers, and residents. While state and regional policies and programs are helping to increase sustainability more broadly, the City’s efforts are critical to building a tailored response that addresses the environmental challenges most relevant to Vernon’s unique community. This Environmental Sustainability Action Plan identifies sustainability goals and targets for Vernon to implement, through coordination with local businesses, stakeholders, and residents identified as significant partners to ensuring accountability, transparency, and long-term change. Vernon’s History of Environmental Stewardship Environmental stewardship is crucial in addressing the challenges posed by a growing population, global climate change and limited natural resources. Environmental stewardship refers to the responsible management and care of the environment. It involves actively protecting natural resources, conserving biodiversity, and ensuring sustainable practices for current and future generations. Southern California faces significant risks from climate change, which is resulting in more extreme weather events, worsening air quality, and more threats to public health including new disease vectors. Through this ESAP, the City continues its commitment to sustainability and to aligning with the sustainability goals of the City of Vernon General Plan, a commitment that has the City’s departments and commissions engaged at various levels in promoting sustainable practices. For example, the Department of Health and Environmental Control and the Green Vernon Commission (GVC) focus largely on food systems, materials and waste, greenhouse gas emissions, and community environmental health and safety; the Public Utilities Department of the City of Vernon focuses on energy use, renewable energy, and water use; and Public Works focuses on transportation. The City of Vernon is enhancing its environmental stewardship efforts through updates to its essential plans, including the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and General Plan Housing and Safety elements, all of which incorporate policies addressing climate change and sustainability. The City is also making zoning changes to diversify land uses, improve amenities, .. .. Item 11 Page 7 of 81 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan IntroductionIntroduction 1312 attract skilled workers, and uphold its status as an industrial hub. Collaborating with organizations like the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (Gateway Cities or GCCOG), Loyola Marymount University Center for Urban Resilience, and TreePeople, the City recently conducted an urban Tree Canopy Prioritization assessment to assess its existing and potential urban greening opportunities. This initiative aims to create community-wide benefits, including greener spaces, improved aesthetics, shading, heat mitigation, enhanced air quality, and better pedestrian pathways through strategic tree plantings. Vernon’s robust foundation for addressing environmental challenges is built on past regional efforts and ongoing programs. Initiatives such as the regional Gateway Cities Climate Action Planning Framework, LA County’s Our County Sustainability Plan, and Southern California Association of Governments’ (SCAG) Regional Climate Adaptation Framework provide a strong foundation for the City’s ESAP. The City’s existing policies and programs, including comprehensive greenhouse gas inventories and mandatory emissions reporting, are integral to its sustainability approach. Likewise, the City’s previous Sustainability Action Plan completed in 2011, which outlines targets and actions across multiple sectors, serves as a guiding framework for Vernon’s continuous commitment to environmental stewardship and resilience. Vernon’s Business Community – The Key Player In Our Sustainable Future Vernon’s land area is mostly designated for industrial use. This distinctive status as an industrial city is reflected in the General Plan, which features a single land use category (Industrial) and seven Overlay Zones (Commercial-1, Commercial-2, Rendering, Slaughtering, Housing, Emergency Shelter, and Truck and Freight Terminal) as determined in the City’s Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, that cater to the community’s specific needs and requirements. Consequentially, businesses represent most of the City’s energy consumption and its contributions to greenhouse gas emissions. Vernon’s business community is at the forefront of the City’s sustainable future and its vision for a circular economy. A circular economy eliminates waste, promotes material reuse and recycling, and repurposes resources. Unlike the traditional linear economy, where products are made, used, and then discarded as waste, the primary goal of a circular economy is to keep products, materials, and resources in use for as long as possible, thereby reducing the environmental impact of material production. The City knows that for businesses to thrive, organizations must be prudent with their finances. In a competitive market, businesses must make decisions grounded in the return on investment (ROI). This balance between financial caution and environmental responsibility is where Vernon’s businesses become key players. By integrating sustainable practices within their operations, many of the City’s businesses are reducing their environmental footprint while contributing significantly to the City’s circular economy. This ability to become both financially and environmentally sustainable is at the root of sustainable business practices and represents an essential component of Vernon’s journey towards a greener, more sustainable future. Community Input The unique community characteristics of the City of Vernon are deeply rooted in its industrial legacy. Vernon serves as a robust economic powerhouse with over 1,800 businesses and an employment base of approximately 55,000 individuals. Since its establishment in 1905, Vernon has exemplified industrial progress, cultivating an environment where business thrives. The City takes pride in its business- friendly policies and the dedicated support provided by its municipal staff, emphasizing a personalized approach to every company. At the same time, the City is preparing for a growing population in the coming years through various mixed-use residential developments. To understand the aspirations and concerns of its diverse community, development of this ESAP included extensive outreach to businesses and residents. Through virtual meetings and workshops with the Steering Committee, an online community survey, and personalized one-on-one engagements with key businesses and leaders, the project team obtained valuable insights. These interactions revealed the community’s top priorities, concerns, and goals. The data collected during these outreach initiatives became the foundation upon which the ESAP was constructed, ensuring that it not only addresses the City’s unique characteristics but also resonates with the aspirations of its people and businesses. The outreach findings highlighted several key priorities and concerns within the community. The Steering Committee discussed and expanded outreach activities, including dissemination of a multilingual survey for businesses, employees, and residents. The survey results stressed the importance of public health, while the Steering Committee emphasized the importance of fiscal sustainability as a key concept. Climate change emerged as the central concern, transcending the sustainability concerns associated with transportation, fiscal responsibility, waste management, water usage, air quality, energy efficiency, and the environmental impacts associated with the food supply. Greenhouse Gas Emissions The City will seek to reduce GHG emissions by improving the energy efficiency of existing buildings and implementing electrification strategies where applicable. Energy The City will take actions to procure zero-carbon electricity, increase distributed renewable energy resources, and develop energy storage/microgrids. Transportation The City will expand infrastructure to support zero emission vehicles (ZEV) and increase bicycle and pedestrian activity; transition the City fleet to greener alternatives; and expand car and bike sharing. The City will support transit-oriented and mixed-use development. Materials and Waste The City will divert solid waste and organics from landfills. Water The City will reduce community and municipal per capita water use through water conservation and reuse. Food Systems The City will decrease food waste, increase food accessibility and local circular economy of the food industry. Community Health and Resilience The City will increase resilience to climate hazards through adaptive measures that provide health benefits for people and the environment. Strategies to Increase Sustainability In developing this ESAP, the City of Vernon considered many potential strategies and actions to support sustainability goals. Best-suited measures were chosen primarily based on feasibility of implementation and the support received from businesses, residents, and City staff. The strategies and actions are organized into the major categories shown below and described in detail in Chapter 2: Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies. .. .. Item 11 Page 8 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 1514 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan Increasing concentrations of greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere are a primary driver of global warming, which is causing significant and long-term changes in the earth’s system, including changing weather patterns and the warming of oceans. Climate change is rapidly emerging as a major threat to global health and economic prosperity in the 21st century, as it will bring direct and indirect societal impacts that are far-reaching, with disproportionate impacts to vulnerable populations. The extent and severity of future climate change will largely depend on how effective the global community will be in reducing GHG emissions over the next several decades. CHAPTER 2 GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS Existing Conditions Community greenhouse gas (GHG) emission inventories for Vernon, which include all emissions- generating activity within the City, are available for calendar years 2010 and 2015 through regional planning efforts by the Gateway Cities Council of Governments and the Los Angeles County’s Chief Sustainability Office. Municipal GHG inventories, which account for emissions from the City’s buildings and operations, are available for the years 2010 through 2020 through Vernon Public Utilities. These efforts are summarized in Appendix B – Existing Conditions Summary. The 2015 community GHG inventory shows a total of 939,293 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e).1 Energy consumption, which includes electricity and natural gas, accounted for 36% of the 2015 total, followed by stationary emissions from the Malburg Generating Station (a source regulated by the California Air Resources Board) at 34%, transportation (19%), solid waste (8%), off-road equipment (2%), short- lived climate pollutants (1%), and water and wastewater (<1%). From 2010 to 2015, total emissions decreased by approximately 15%, with the largest volume of reductions associated with the MGS and electricity use. The sector with the largest percent reduction was natural gas (27%). 1 Note that refinements were made to the 2015 and 2010 GHG inventories to allow comparisons across the two years, primarily related to revised transportation and socioeconomic data, updates to emission factors for vehicles and electricity, and updated methods for estimating emissions from wastewater and solid waste. .. .. Item 11 Page 9 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 1716 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan Vernon Public Utilities (VPU) leads collection, quantification, and reporting of the City’s emissions from municipal operations, accounting for stationary and mobile sources, and purchased energy. These emissions represent a small subset of the community inventory (less than 3%) but come from sources over which the City has the most control. The City is committed to addressing GHG emissions through monitoring initiatives and infrastructure improvements; this includes regular updates of the VPU’s GHG Inventory Management Plan and its mandatory reporting to California Air Resources Board and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, along with implementation of the City’s Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan, which aims to reduce VPU’s carbon footprint by upgrading switches and circuit breakers that are insulated with sulfur hexafluoride gas and replacing them with vacuum insulated equipment. Challenges • Achieving local reductions in line with state targets and mandates will require a major shift to renewable energy, zero-carbon buildings, and zero-emission vehicles Opportunities • Expected growth in jobs and business opportunities in the CleanTech industry, due to growing need for low-carbon solutions • Increasing availability of state and federal resources to support local climate action Goals (G) Goal G1 Reduce community GHG emissions in alignment with state targets Key Performance Metrics • Annual GHG emissions inventory (community wide and municipal operations) • Progress toward local emissions reduction targets (yet to be established) Strategies and Actions Note: Strategies and actions that reduce GHG emissions from the other sectors covered in this ESAP are noted as such by use of the icon. G1-a: Develop a detailed climate action plan for reducing emissions throughout the community and tracking progress towards targets that align with state mandates. • Set a communitywide target for emissions reductions in alignment with the state’s goals for 2030 (SB 32 and AB 1279). • Develop an updated community GHG inventory to assess emissions trends since completion of the last inventory in 2015. • Leverage existing partnerships, existing inventory data, and the Environmental Sustainability Action Plan to position the City to access funds for the development of a climate action plan. • Develop a vulnerability assessment to address environmental justice and assess social and environmental vulnerability to climate change hazards, including impacts to people, places, and infrastructure. • Identify needs for adaptation and resiliency measures to address the impacts of climate change hazards. Sustainability Co-Benefits SOCIAL. Promotes equity, environmental justice, and public health improvements. ECONOMIC. Reduces costs relating to long- term adaptation and recovery from severe impacts. ENVIRONMENTAL. Reduces severity from climate change impacts and air quality improvements. Fiscal Considerations Local governments must prioritize resources and available budget for day-to-day operations and maintenance. For many cities, this does not include long-term considerations for addressing climate change. Securing dedicated funding for climate action planning will be critical. As such, planning is needed to determine the cost-effectiveness of emissions reduction strategies, identifying benefits to the community and property owners, evaluating the costs of inaction, and determining the City’s capacity for implementation. Aligning with State Targets and Regulations California is a global leader in addressing climate change through policies and programs that reduce GHG emissions throughout the economy. Many of these regulations apply at the state level, but some are state-imposed mandates with requirements for local jurisdictions like the City of Vernon. Assembly Bill (AB) 32, known as the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, directed the state to reduce statewide GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. Senate Bill (SB) 32 signed by Governor Brown in 2016 deepened that commitment to 40% below 1990 levels by 2030, while AB 1279 (2022) legally binds the state to achieving carbon neutrality by 2045, including a statewide reduction of at least 85% below 1990 levels within that timeframe. State agencies including the California Air Resources Board and the Office of Planning and Research recommend local jurisdictions develop community-wide targets and strategies to align with state goals. Vernon is committed to doing its part to support the state’s GHG emissions reductions goals. While the Environmental Sustainability Action Plan does not set a target for emissions reductions, it establishes a communitywide goal for reducing emissions aligned with science-based targets and in alignment with state regulations. The goals, strategies and actions outlined herein set the foundation for Vernon to prepare a local climate action plan that is focused on GHG emissions through strategies and actions that provide the greatest benefit to the community. Local Spotlight – Westside Specific Plan The Westside Specific Plan in Vernon aims to revitalize the diverse Westside area near the Arts District in Los Angeles. It provides a good example of how the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the state’s GHG reduction targets are affecting local land use planning. To minimize GHG emissions, the plan promotes adaptive reuse of existing development, changes in truck routes that redirect traffic to create pedestrian-friendly areas, and development of green corridors along railways and streets. The plan also envisions leveraging the City’s central location – with proximity to downtown Los Angeles and connections to the ports and valley region – and reliable electric service to increase electric vehicle charging stations and support zero- emission vehicles on the road. Creation of a communitywide climate action plan for Vernon would help guide future development to be designed and structured in ways that minimize GHG reductions and align with state climate goals.

Item 11 Page 10 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 1918 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan ENERGY City of Vernon Clean energy is energy derived from renewable sources like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal, which have lower environmental impacts and produce minimal GHG emissions compared to fossil fuels. Renewable energy sources rely on natural processes and resources that are continuously replenished, rendering them more sustainable in the long run. By promoting clean energy, Vernon can transition toward a more sustainable future where energy production and consumption align with ecological and societal needs. Existing Conditions Vernon Public Utilities provides electricity to almost 2,000 customers, mostly commercial and industrial, through locally generated power and purchased power sourced from renewables, natural gas, market purchases, and nuclear resources. This includes the Malburg Generating Station (MGS), a city-owned combined-cycle natural gas-fired generating plant, which will supply 32% of the City’s 2024 energy mix. The largest portion will be from renewable resources (43%), with remaining resources coming from market purchases (15%), nuclear resources (8%), and large hydro (1%). Vernon aims to be a leader in eco-friendly energy practices, building on past efforts to increase energy efficiency and consumption of renewable energy. In 2008, Vernon purchased 30,000 acres in Kern County for wind and solar power to boost renewable energy service. In 2017, the City added supply from additional projects like Antelope DSR Solar, Astoria II Solar and Puente Hills Landfill Gas, and most recent in 2023 Daggett Solar. In 2026, the City will include Saphire Solar to meet California’s renewable mandate. Five years ago, natural gas generation from MGS made up the majority of the City’s energy mix (56%). In 2024 VPU will reduce natural gas generation to 32% and increase its renewable sources from 31% to 43%. The City has set ambitious goals in its 2023 Integrated Resource Plan for sustainable energy management and enhancing the resilience of energy systems to ensure a reliable energy supply: • Increase transition to clean, renewable energy sources, aiming for 60% renewable energy in its overall power mix by 2030, 90% zero-carbon by 2035, 95% zero-carbon by 2040, and 100% zero- carbon by 2045 (in alignment with state mandates SB 350, SB 100, and SB 1020). • Promote the adoption of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems at public and private facilities in partnership with customers and property owners. • Encourage the efficient use of energy through incentives and outreach, with an annual energy efficiency target of 2.6 giga watt-hour (GWh) through 2031. • Replace and upgrade aging infrastructure to maintain system reliability. • Evaluate utility-scale solar and solar plus storage power-purchase agreements for delivery by 2030.

Promotes new job opportunities in the clean energy sector. ECONOMIC. Boosts energy independence, resiliency against fossil fuel price fluctuations, cost savings for the City and businesses and fosters new business opportunities. ENVIRONMENTAL. Reduces GHG emissions and emissions of local criteria air pollutants, and contributes to global efforts to mitigate climate change. Fiscal Considerations Increasing the procurement of renewable energy typically requires a greater level of investment upfront, with higher costs to customers. Vernon continues to increase solar and wind energy purchases that meet state renewable targets and are cost-effective for customers, as well as energy storage solutions that increase reliability. A portfolio with geothermal or green hydrogen would result in a cleaner and more efficient supply, but represents a significant cost investment with a longer rate of return. VPU’s 2023 Integrated Resource Plan evaluated different options for greening Vernon’s renewable energy portfolio, and compared rates for customers based on portfolio options. Costs to customers for solar/wind/and energy storage were less than half the costs for green hydrogen. VPU will continue to assess its portfolio as future conditions change, and renewable procurement becomes more accessible and affordable. Local Spotlight – Golden West Food Group Golden West Food Group (GWFG) is a bulk supplier of raw, frozen, and prepared foods for retail, commercial and institutional use. Since 2012, GWFG has been reporting on its own sustainability performance, accounting for its use of materials and energy sources. GWFG has implemented several practices to keep its material recycling loop close to home. It sends its used fats and oils to a local renderer for processing into biodiesel, which it then purchases to fuel its own truck fleet. It also specifies the use of 50% minimum recycled content in its paperboard products, and sources these products from a local processor which uses GWFG’s own recyclable paper and cardboard as feedstock. GWFG also subscribes to a pallet-management system to minimize wasted shipping pallets. GWFG reduces its energy intake and emissions through upgraded equipment such as LED light bulbs, on-demand lighting, chillers for space cooling, and energy-efficient compressors. The company reduces its transportation carbon footprint by scheduling its work shifts to minimize commute time and by optimizing its boxes and pallet loads to utilize the maximum space on each truck. .. .. Item 11 Page 12 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 2322 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan TRANSPORTATION An efficient transportation system can provide diverse options for travel that help to reduce GHG emissions from decreased vehicle miles traveled (VMT), reduce fuel costs and improve traffic congestion and air quality. Sustainable transportation means connected and safe roadways for pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists, and more efficient modes of transport that include electric vehicles, public transit, and active transportation. Existing Conditions Vernon’s transportation network is made up of 76-miles of local roadway and freeway, with key connections to industrial businesses and neighboring communities, where a majority of the City’s workforce commutes from. Major roads like Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue facilitate access to downtown Los Angeles, local ports, and provide connections to I-710 to the east; I-5, I-10, and CA-60 to the north, and I-110 further west. The I-710 offers a direct link to the Port of Long Beach and to other highways that connect to the Port of Los Angeles, from one of the largest railyards in the country, Hobart Yard. Vernon also hosts the BNSF Railway and Union Pacific Rail yards, and Los Angeles Junction Railway switching services, which are critical to the region’s goods movement and economy. Public transportation service is provided by LA Metro, with the Vernon light rail station (Blue Line) located to the west on Vernon Avenue and Long Beach Avenue. Additionally, the Metro Bus Service operates over 10 routes in Vernon, serving local stops and connecting to neighboring cities. Within the City’s municipal fleet, the majority of vehicles are gasoline-fueled light-duty trucks. There are currently ten (10) electric- and one (1) gasoline/electric vehicle in the fleet. Vernon recently expanded its clean transportation infrastructure by installing its first public electric vehicle (EV) DC fast charging station, which features 18, Level 3 fast chargers available 24/7 for EV drivers, and a second public EV fast charging station in development. Challenges • Only one bikeway exists in Vernon, along the LA River trail to the east • Zero or low-emission trucks and heavy-duty vehicles are expensive and in the early stages of technological development; these vehicles are not yet commercially available • Reducing VMT requires safe walking and biking routes, convenient public transit, and changing the single occupancy vehicle (SOV) mindset Sustainable Transportation Connections Collaborations with regional agencies are leading to new and improved active transportation modes in Vernon, such as the LA River Path project developed in partnership with LA Metro. This project envisions a connected, shared-use bicycle and pedestrian path along the LA River, through Vernon and connecting the San Fernando Valley to the north, and Long Beach to the south. The LA River bicycle path is the only existing bikeway in Vernon. Addressing gaps in the bike trail will enhance connectivity to major employers in Vernon and provide another option for commuters driving to and from work and home. The river bikeway is anticipated to open in 2027. Vernon’s LA River Active Transportation Access study is building on the regional bikeway effort to assess potential corridors and gateways for critical first- and last-mile connections to transit, the LA River path, and key destinations and employers in Vernon. As Metro’s LA River Path project comes to completion, Vernon will be well- positioned to pursue funding for designing three bikeway corridors along 37th Street, Vernon Avenue, and Leonis/ District Boulevard. Opportunities • The City’s Bicycle Master Plan provides a framework for a citywide system that promotes bicycling and walking as a viable transportation mode and for recreation • Vernon’s major corridors are served by transit, and employment areas are proximate to regional rail commuter stations. • The transition to EVs and other zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) is accelerating due to state regulations, government funding, private sector investment and technological advancements • Large amounts of funding for ZEVs and supporting infrastructure are becoming available from the state and federal governments • Business opportunities are increasing for developing and supporting ZEV technologies, and infrastructure is expanding specifically for electric and hydrogen powered vehicles Goals (T) Goal T1 Reduce traffic congestion and vehicle emissions Goal T2 Increase the use of ZEVs throughout the community Goal T3 Create a safe, reliable, and efficient network for walking, biking, public transit, and new forms of mobility Key Performance Metrics • Number of publicly accessible EV charging stations • Miles of dedicated bike lines and pedestrian routes Strategies and Actions T1-a: Reduce truck emissions of criteria air pollutants. • Coordinate with Caltrans regarding the I-710 project and modifications to local freeway ramps that affect local roadways. • Coordinate with local businesses to identify strategies that facilitate goods movement and minimize the potential negative impacts on people and infrastructure.

T3-a: Promote active transportation and transit. • Implement the Active Transportation Plan for dedicated cycling lanes, pedestrian walkways, and safe crossing points that encourage non-motorized transportation modes. • Apply for funding to support active transportation trails. • Work with businesses to enhance walking and cycling infrastructure around their premises, such as bike racks, pedestrian pathways, hydration stations, and secure storage for personal bicycles. • Coordinate with Metro to complete the LA River gap closure. • Identify key transit corridors in partnership with local transit agencies, to prioritize and enhance public transportation options in line with the Westside Specific Plan’s multimodal focus. Sustainability Co-Benefits SOCIAL. Provides diverse travel options for people, increases physical activity, improves public health, and reduces risk of chronic diseases. ECONOMIC. Reduces costs relating to active transportation modes and costs for fueling. ENVIRONMENTAL. Reduces GHG emissions; provides greater connectivity. Fiscal Considerations The transportation sector often entails costly infrastructure improvements and development, in addition to ongoing maintenance to support daily industry and goods movements. Sustainable transportation can be lower cost, as it prioritizes cleaner vehicles, active modes of travel, and enhanced access to existing connections. This can mean reduced costs for fleets, vehicle owners, and fueling and maintenance. Vernon is uniquely positioned, geographically and as an employment hub, to strengthen connections between places of work, nearby residential communities, and other community destinations. Local Spotlight – Crown Poly Crown Poly, founded in Los Angeles in 1991, produces film plastic and plastic bags for home and commercial uses. Crown Poly’s sustainability practices include using shrimp shells to make plastic adhesive, local sourcing of pallets, inks and corrugated cardboard, and sourcing recycled plastic feedstock, including recovered ocean plastics. Their sustainability efforts are also reflected in their transportation-related initiatives. Crown Poly focuses on recruiting employees residing within a 30-mile radius of their Vernon plant, with production staff recruited within a 10-mile radius. This localized approach to hiring helps minimize commute distances and reduce transportation emissions. Crown Poly also sponsors employee carpooling and encourages the use of electric vehicles among its workforce by offering free workplace EV charging. In addition, the company optimizes its shipping processes by utilizing a direct rail spur, enhancing energy efficiency. .. .. Item 11 Page 14 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 2726 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan MATERIALS AND WASTE Reusing and recycling materials rather than sending them to landfills or incineration facilities – the essence of a “circular economy” – is essential to protecting the environment and conserving resources for future generations. Embracing the circular economy promotes the highest and best use of materials and helps minimize the distance of materials traveled, reducing energy use and GHG emissions. This sustainable approach to managing waste and materials positively impacts public health by reducing pollution and exposure to harmful substances. Existing Conditions Vernon’s industrial profile gives it a natural advantage as a circular economy leader. Its compact footprint contains companies that recycle diverse materials, such as glass, metal, and animal biproducts, as well as companies such as glassware manufacturers and biofuel producers that use those materials as feedstock for their products. The City’s 2021 tonnage report shows a total of 135,073 tons of solid waste sent to landfills, an 8% decrease from 2020. Detailed information is not available on the origins or composition of Vernon’s discards, so the analysis below is based on statewide waste characterization averages, modified based on Vernon’s employment numbers by industry, to yield an approximation of Vernon’s waste characteristics. The Waste Sources figure shows waste generation by percentage, with the majority of solid waste attributed to food manufacturing (35%). By material categories, organics represent the largest estimated percentage of total waste generation at 27% as the Waste Material Categories figure demonstrates. The waste is primarily disposed of at Sunshine Canyon, located about 30 miles northwest of Vernon, with other landfills like El Sobrante and Olinda Alpha also being used. The General Plan includes policies to enhance safety from hazardous material waste and disposal sites. The City annually reports solid waste tonnage by hauler and also hosts electronic waste recycling and disposal events for businesses and residents to encourage proper disposal practices. Challenges • Existing market forces often incentivize the wasting of materials • Rendering animal biproducts into usable resources can pose air quality challenges • Variability in recycling feedstock quality can increase disposal • Diversion is not effectively measured and there is a lack of waste characterization data • Conforming with Senate Bill 1383 (state-mandated organics recycling) requires engagement with multiple waste haulers Opportunities • The City has a high industrial density, with established patterns of business-to-business material cycling and a concentration of recycling businesses • Vernon’s well-developed rail network allows for materials to be moved in bulk, reducing the need for disposable transport packaging such as boxes and pallet wrap • Reuse, rental, repair, and recycling all create jobs • Recycled glass requires less energy than virgin glass production, which can reduce GHGs and other air pollutants. • The City of Vernon 2023 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) suggests working with waste service contractors to promote safe disposal practices, mainly focusing on hazardous waste materials. Aligning with State Targets and Key Regulations California’s SB 1383 went into effect January 1, 2022, establishing targets to achieve a 50% reduction in organic waste disposal by 2020 and a 75% reduction by 2025, compared to 2014 levels. It expands the scope of existing mandatory organics and recycling laws, including AB 1826 and AB 341, by requiring all residents and businesses to participate, and by mandating that every jurisdiction provide organic waste collection in addition to recycling and trash collection services to all residents and businesses. SB 1383 also requires large generators of surplus edible food to donate any excess food to food recovery organizations to assist people in need. By material categories, organics represent the greatest estimated percentage of total waste generation (27%), followed by metal (27%), paper (26%, inerts and other (11%), and plastic (7%). Other categories generate less than 2%. WASTE MATERIAL CATEGORIES Percentage of Vernon’s Total Waste Generation Organics Metal Paper Inserts Plastic Other 0 10 20 30 262727 <2 7 11 WASTE SOURCES The majority of solid waste in Vernon is generated from manufacturing. Food manufacturing generates the highest amount of waste.

Local Spotlight – Strategic Materials Inc. The Strategic Materials Inc. (SMI) facility in Vernon processes glass-rich materials from recycling programs and from industry into color-separated glass cullet for new glass products. Batteries recovered from the incoming feedstock are sent to local processors for further sorting and then extraction of valuable metals. The company also recycles pallets, cardboard, and ferrous metals. To save energy, the plant uses LED lighting. The facility employs 30-35 staff, offering “second chance” employment for individuals who have been in the criminal justice system. SMI prioritizes bringing more women into its workforce, running a forum called “Breaking The Glass Ceiling” to highlight its female employee’s achievements and to support women’s career advancement. SMI provides employees with refillable water bottles and bottle-filling stations and runs a “Glass Warriors” initiative to promote employee environmental literacy and action, both professionally and personally. Fiscal Considerations Adopting sustainable waste management practices involves infrastructure, technology, and community engagement costs. For example, infrastructure investments may be needed to establish or upgrade recycling facilities, upgrade waste treatment plants, or develop a materials exchange platform. While such investments may be costly, the long-term benefits include reduced landfill usage, lowered transportation costs, and potential revenue. In addition, transitioning to a circular economy model requires systemic production, consumption, and waste management changes. However, over time, a circular economy can reduce the demand for raw materials and lower production costs, contributing to fiscal sustainability. While a financial investment is involved in adopting sustainable waste management practices, the long- term benefits, cost savings, and revenue generation can significantly enhance Vernon’s economy and environment. .. .. Item 11 Page 16 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 3130 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan WATER Water conservation and sustainable water management are essential components of addressing and adapting to climate change in Vernon. Scientists observe that climate change is altering precipitation patterns in California, resulting in more intense and prolonged droughts punctuated by years of intense rainfall. While average annual precipitation may not change significantly in the next 50-75 years, it will likely come in more intense storms and a shorter wet season. Vernon’s historical average maximum daily precipitation is approximately 2 inches, but some climate models indicate it could increase to 3 inches by the end of the century. Moreover, the length of dry spells could rise from an average of 159 days to 211 days due to climate change impacts, and higher temperatures will increase water demand due to higher evaporation rates. The Cal-Adapt platform shows the average yearly maximum temperature in Vernon is 76 °F, but under a high emissions scenario, it could reach 88 °F. Existing Conditions Most of Vernon’s water use is supplied by the City through groundwater from the Central Groundwater Basin, followed by imported and recycled water purchased from the Central Basin Municipal Water District (CBMWD). The California Water Service Company and Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3 are the suppliers for different parts of the city. The City has no surface water supply and does not divert stormwater for capture purposes. Challenges • Input from community survey results indicate high value placed on importance of water quality, water supply, and reliability • Water demand in Vernon is expected to increase due to growth of commercial/industrial activity • The region’s drought periods are expected to be longer, more intense, and occur with more regularity • According to the Urban Water Management Plan, there is an oversupply of recycled water in the Central Groundwater Basin. However, Vernon currently does not have adequate distribution infrastructure in place to reach all potential recycled water customers • Vernon has reduced its reliance on costly and limited imported water due to its dependence on groundwater sources. However, should there be severe climate changes this would impact the availability of both imported and the possibility of ground water Opportunities • City provides water service at some of the lowest rates in the region to attract and retain its commercial and industrial customers • Vernon currently has an ample supply of groundwater and is not dependent on imported water as its water supply Goals (W) Goal W1 Achieve greater water conservation Goal W2 Improve resilience to droughts Goal W3 Improve stormwater management for flood control and groundwater recharge Key Performance Metrics • Gallons of water consumption per capita per day (GPCD) • Number of water audits completed annually for industrial and commercial sites • Number of tree wells and bioswales that have been successfully installed Aligning with State Targets and Key Regulations Vernon has existing policies to manage its water resources, potential water shortages, and address drought. These policies are outlined in the General Plan, Water Conservation Ordinance, and Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). They include measures such as specific watering days, limits on outdoor watering, and obligations for fixing leaks in a timely manner. The City already uses recycled water at the MGS, with potential opportunities for expanding the water recycling system in the future. Legislation including SB X7-7, AB 1668, and SB 606 form the basis of the City’s UWMP. SB X7-7 was a major step forward in California’s water conservation efforts by requiring a 20% reduction in urban per capita water use by 2020. It laid the foundation for AB 1668 and SB 606, enacted in 2018, further expanding and refining California’s long- term water conservation framework. In 2020, the City’s per-person daily water usage was 59,814 gallons, measured in gallons per capita per day (GPCD). This average usage is less than its targeted limit of 89,809 GPCD for that year. As a result, the City successfully met its 2020 water consumption goal and is in compliance with SB X7-7 regulations. CITY OF VERNON 2020 URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN VOLUME 1 – FINAL REPORT JUNE 15, 2021 Prepared by In the past decade, most of the water used in Vernon has been for commercial and industrial purposes, followed by power generation, and the rest for residential and other uses.

W1-b: Collaborate with CBMWD to expand water conservation programs (water audits, water fixture upgrades, retrofits, and recycled water use). • Identify and collaborate with CBMWD, non-profit organizations, and educational institutions involved in conservation efforts. • Collaborate with CBMWD to facilitate water efficiency upgrades for industrial and commercial sites. Measure success by tracking the number of conducted water audits and completed upgrades. W1-c: Share information on regional water conservation programs available for residents. • Create a dedicated section on the City’s website for all CBMWD water conservation programs and resources. • Organize information into clear categories and multiple languages, making it easy for residents to navigate and access information. • Collaborate with local newspapers, radio stations, and TV channels to feature stories, interviews, and segments about regional water conservation initiatives. W2-a: Promote drought-tolerant landscaping for residential customers. • Offer rebates or incentives for residents who replace traditional lawns with drought-tolerant landscapes. • Transition to drought-tolerant and native landscaping for all City-owned public spaces. • Create an online resource on the City website that features tools that help residents plan, design, and implement drought-tolerant landscapes. W2-b: Continue to monitor water usage and assess water conservation pricing, especially during drought periods. • Update Water Conservation Ordinance No. 1161 from 2009, which amended Article VI of Chapter 25 of its municipal code to enhance water conservation efforts, to align with new information and technologies. • Support the implementation of the UWMP strategies for water conservation. W3-a: Develop a comprehensive stormwater management plan that incorporates the Citywide Tree Wells Project. • Offer incentives or rebates to property and business owners who install green infrastructure, including tree wells and bioswales, to manage stormwater and increase percolation into local groundwater. • Establish clear maintenance standards for tree wells and other green infrastructure elements. • Identify and secure funding sources for stormwater management projects, including grants, bonds, or public-private partnerships. Sustainability Co-Benefits SOCIAL. Secures water supply for present and future generations, enhancing community resilience during droughts. ECONOMIC. Decreases demand for resources, reduces costs for water, avoids expensive infrastructure expansions, and minimizes economic risks during water scarcity. ENVIRONMENTAL. Enhances water quality by reducing runoff and pollution, ensuring clean water sources for human consumption and wildlife ecosystems. Local Spotlight – Citywide Tree Wells The Citywide Tree Wells project involves planting trees and managing stormwater by installing 115 new street tree wells. These tree wells are specifically designed to capture runoff from the gutter and process it through a combination of biofiltration, evapotranspiration, and infiltration, ultimately providing the necessary irrigation for the trees. Tree wells helps mitigate stormwater-related issues like flooding and pollution, protecting local water bodies and enhancing water quality. This project also provides benefits for heat reduction, enhanced air quality, biodiversity support, carbon sequestration, and urban livability. Fiscal Considerations Communities in southern California must continue to plan for future drought conditions and build local resilience, through implementation of water conservation measures, improved stormwater management, improved water-saving technologies, and public awareness campaigns. Greater success of these actions is tied to widespread implementation and partnerships. Similarly, diversifying water sources, developing drought-resilient landscapes, and upgrading stormwater infrastructure requires cross collaboration and often means costlier investments. Vernon’s ability to rely on local water supply helps to eliminate transportation costs and the issue of limited regional supplies. During periods of drought, potential for increased water costs is still of concern, which can incentivize reduced consumption, but may impact households and businesses financially. Implementation of water strategies increase sustainable, reliable, and long-term supply of water for all users, with benefits from more efficient technologies, reduced costs from reduced consumption, and enhanced community resilience during droughts. .. .. Item 11 Page 18 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 3534 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan FOOD SYSTEMS Food systems are inextricably linked to society and the environment. The production, processing, transportation, distribution, and preparation of food involves complex systems that can contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, soil degradation, habitat destruction, and water pollution, as well as poor human health outcomes. When designed well, however, food systems can support resilient ecosystems, healthy people, and vibrant communities. Existing Conditions Vernon is home to numerous industrial food service facilities, including warehousing and refrigeration, processing, and commercial agriculture, with a concentration of meat/poultry processing facilities. The City has 22 cold storage facilities and 5 rendering facilities that repurpose animal by-products into feed, fertilizer, and biofuel. However, commercial food service is limited in the City, mainly catering to the daytime workforce. There are few markets or grocery stores, and no farmer’s markets. The City gathers data on various food service facilities, however, information is limited regarding food supply, production sources, and edible food recovery. For example, there is little information on the compliance status of state-mandated organics recycling (Senate Bill 1383). It is clear, however, that many companies operating in Vernon are willing to enhance recycling related to the food system. Challenges • The industrial context of the City makes local agriculture more challenging because of space and possible soil contamination • The arid Southern California climate is not suitable for many food crops, leading to more imports. • Lack of food disposal data from Vernon businesses makes it more difficult to identify opportunities for food rescue and upcycling • Global and national economies and subsidies favor the production of foods that do not support human health Opportunities • Many food businesses in proximity to other businesses, such as renderers and mushroom farmers, etc., could upcycle their byproducts into edible food • The Helping Hands Society provides a local avenue to rescue surplus edible food and distribute it to those in need • The Los Angeles Food Policy Council is a local resource for implementing sustainable and just food systems • The City’s health department ensures compliance with health codes and collaborates with the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) to stay informed about rendering operations’ issues. Goals (F) Goal F1 Support a thriving regional food economy Goal F2 Provide safe and convenient access to affordable, healthy, culturally relevant food Key Performance Metrics • Number of local businesses participating in surplus food upcycling • Number of community gardens or farmer’s markets operating within the City Strategies and Actions F1-a: Lead by example through City purchasing practices. • Update the City’s food purchasing policies to require all its departments to prioritize local production, environmental sustainability, valued workforce, animal welfare, and nutrition in their food purchases. • Encourage Vernon’s large businesses and institutions to adopt similar food purchasing policies by providing templates, support, and publicity. F1-b: Incentivize, support, and publicize businesses that upcycle surplus food products. • Offer businesses access to training, workshops, and technical assistance to help them integrate surplus food upcycling practices. • Convene a food upcycling competition such as the “Reverse Pitch” in Austin, Texas, where businesses pitch their materials to local entrepreneurs that can use them as ingredients for upcycled food products. Aligning With State Targets The SB 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program, established in 2016, aims to reduce methane emissions and combat climate change by cutting down on organic waste disposal in California. SB 1383 set targets to reduce organic waste disposal by 50% by 2020 and 75% by 2025 and rescue at least 20% of currently disposed surplus food for consumption by 2025. The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) administers this non-competitive grant program, funding local jurisdictions to implement SB 1383 regulations, including collection, edible food recovery, and education and outreach. To meet SB 1383 goals, the City of Vernon plans to partner with Dyrt Labs, Inc. Dyrt offers a cost-neutral composting pilot initiative that includes customized tracking software and the use of Dyrt’s proprietary composting equipment. This partnership aims to divert food waste from landfills and facilitate compliance with SB 1383 requirements. The proposed composting pilot project includes waste stream tracking software, a platform connecting businesses with service providers to manage various waste streams, residential food waste collection for 75 households, and the provision of Dyrt composters to private businesses at a discounted rate. This initiative helps businesses manage their waste effectively, contributes to the City’s compliance with SB 1383 regulations, and promotes environmental sustainability. .. .. Item 11 Page 19 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 3736 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan F2-a: Promote community gardens and farmers markets. • Promote community gardens, rooftop gardens, and urban farms to produce fresh produce locally and reduce the distance food travels from farm to table. • Organize farmers’ and mobile markets with direct access to fresh, locally grown produce in areas convenient to Vernon’s workforce and accessible to its residents. F2-b: Promote food rescue and distribution. • Support and publicize Helping Hands Society to develop a broader donation network and greater transportation and storage capabilities. • Launch targeted awareness campaigns highlighting the value of surplus food rescue for the local economy, environment, and community well-being. Sustainability Co-Benefits SOCIAL. Increases food access and security through diverse, local production, and prioritizes fair labor practices, supporting farmers and food workers with equitable wages and improved working conditions. ECONOMIC. Stimulates local economies, generating jobs, and supporting small businesses through production and distribution support. ENVIRONMENTAL. Decreases waste through composting, efficient resource use, and reduced energy consumption by emphasizing localized production and distribution. Fiscal Considerations Revising land use and zoning regulations to support sustainable, urban farming practices entail greater administrative costs and could have high revenue implications. However, investing in initiatives like supporting local farmers’ markets, local food distribution networks and food education programs can significantly benefit the local economy at lower costs. To encourage adopting sustainable practices, the City could consider offering incentives or grants to local farmers and food producers, providing them with the necessary resources to transition towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly methods. Local Spotlight – Smallhold In 2022, Vernon welcomed Smallhold, LA County’s first Certified Organic mushroom farm. Smallhold uses indoor agriculture technologies to grow various mushroom varieties, often at sites such as grocery stores and restaurants where the mushrooms will be purchased and/or consumed, thereby reducing food transportation emissions. Smallhold’s operations prioritize water and energy efficiency and contribute to the circular materials economy by utilizing sawdust waste as a mushroom growth medium and by composting all spent substrates. Weekly, Smallhold receives 15,000-20,000 lbs. of sterilized and inoculated sawdust substrate blocks. Smallhold is exploring dehydration methods to reduce food waste and donates surplus mushrooms to the Helping Hands Society of Los Angeles for hunger relief. They collaborate with UC Riverside on soil remediation and green space creation, aiming to apply these studies in Vernon. .. .. Item 11 Page 20 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 3938 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan COMMUNITY HEALTH & RESILIENCE Sustainability and community health are deeply interconnected and mutually dependent. Sustainable practices promote a healthier environment, resource conservation, climate resilience, and social equity, all of which contribute to improved community health and well- being. Existing Conditions Climate change presents considerable risks to public health and safety in Vernon, including worsening air quality, intensified droughts, extreme weather events, heightened flood risks, and a potential increase in pandemics and vector-borne diseases. Vulnerable populations, including people of color, seniors, economically disadvantaged individuals, children, and those with disabilities or pre-existing health conditions, are more likely to be disproportionately affected by these impacts. These climate-related challenges compound the existing hardships faced by communities with constrained financial resources and inequitable access to stable employment, education, healthcare, and transportation options. Air Quality: • The pollution burden in Vernon is greater than almost all other communities in LA County (98th percentile in the County; 88th percentile in the state) due to higher potential for exposure to pollutants and adverse environmental conditions caused by pollution. • Poor air quality is due to high levels of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and diesel particulate matter, which can affect the human respiratory and cardiovascular systems. Extreme Heat: • Excessive heat can lead to heat-related illnesses, exacerbate respiratory and cardiovascular problems, and contribute to an increased risk of hospitalizations and fatalities. Extreme Heat Days, defined as the number of days per year when daily maximum temperatures rise above 97.9 °F, are forecasted to surge from an average of 2 days up to 64 days per year by 2100. • Higher temperatures associated with climate change are creating more suitable conditions that may foster the rise and spread of vector-borne diseases, such as Zika, dengue fever, yellow fever, West Nile Virus, and Lyme Disease. Opportunities • Proximity to LA River and transit; opportunities for active transportation • Vernon community identified public health improvements as a major element and co-benefit of sustainability • 2023 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan evaluates the impacts of climate change on various hazards within the City, and includes a vulnerability assessment that identifies physical and social vulnerabilities associated with each hazard Goals (C) Goal C1 Increase resilience to climate change hazards Goal C2 Reduce urban heat islands Goal C3 Reduce air pollution Key Performance Metrics • Number of annual tree plantings • Percent of tree canopy coverage Strategies and Actions C1-a: Develop a Community Climate Change Adaptation Plan. • Conduct detailed climate change vulnerability assessment; identify key physical assets and populations at risk. • Identify priority actions for increasing community resilience. C1-b: Identify locations for community cooling centers/resilience hubs. • Create detailed maps highlighting high-risk areas, considering demographics and accessibility. • Evaluate public buildings, schools, community centers, and libraries to identify those that could serve as cooling or resilience hubs. • Engage community members through surveys, meetings, and focus groups to gather insights on preferred locations and potential barriers to access.

Item 11 Page 21 of 81 Sustainability Sectors, Goals, and StrategiesSustainability Sectors, Goals, and Strategies 4140 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan C3-a: Prioritize implementation of sector actions that result in GHG reductions (those with icon). Sustainability Co-Benefits SOCIAL. Enables social well-being, provides cleaner environments, reduces respiratory diseases, and offers safe spaces for physical activity. ECONOMIC. Improves preparedness and adaptability, reduces the impact of climate- related emergencies, protects lives, and decreases economic losses. ENVIRONMENTAL. Captures pollutants, reduces heat island effects, and enhances air quality. Urban greening also boosts biodiversity, supporting urban ecosystems and habitats. Fiscal Considerations Development of strategies for climate change adaptation, cooling centers, early warning systems, and public health monitoring often require established partners and resources. Reducing urban heat islands and air pollution further requires multi- sector investments as these efforts involve tree canopy expansion, cool roofs, renewable energy use, transportation enhancements, waste reduction, and water conservation initiatives. Monitoring for vector-borne diseases in particular requires close collaboration with healthcare institutions, educational campaigns, and data-sharing agreements. Implementation of Community Health and Resilience strategies should prioritize local engagement with business- and community leaders to ensure funding will benefit areas where it is needed the most. Through this process, Vernon can measure costs and savings for expected benefits, such as reductions in healthcare costs, missed or skipped work and school days, increased productivity, and prevented losses during emergencies or disasters. C1-c: Improve early warning and communication systems for climate emergencies (extreme heat and precipitation events, wildfire smoke, etc.). • Implement a multi-channel communication system that sends alerts via text messages, emails, mobile apps, social media, and sirens to reach a wide range of residents in real-time. • Translate alert messages into multiple languages to ensure inclusivity and accessibility. C1-d: Monitor vector-borne diseases through public health collaborations. • Establish agreements with healthcare institutions to share relevant data for comprehensive disease monitoring. • Launch educational campaigns to inform residents about vector-borne diseases, their prevention, symptoms, and available healthcare resources. C2-a: Increase urban tree canopy. • Update the Urban Tree Planting Assessment every 5 years. • Focus on key transportation corridors that connect public transit to key employers and destinations within the City. • Partner with local and regional organizations such as TreePeople to build local awareness for tree care and maintenance, for departmental staff, businesses, and homeowners who can help care for right-of-way plantings. C2-b: Increase the use of cool roofs and pavements. • Implement building codes or ordinances that mandate the installation of cool roofs for new constructions and major renovations. • Offer financial incentives, tax breaks, or rebates to property owners who install cool roofs or pavements. • Conduct awareness campaigns to educate homeowners, builders, and businesses about the benefits of cool roofs and pavements. Local Spotlight – Urban Tree Program In Vernon, the City’s only Census tract currently has the lowest tree canopy cover (2%) in all of Los Angeles County. Enhancing Vernon’s tree canopy is a critical step toward mitigating the environmental challenges the City faces, which is why Loyola Marymount University, TreePeople, and the Gateway Cities Council of Governments partnered with the City of Vernon to prioritize community- based tree planting. This collaboration involved input from residents, businesses, and stakeholders to identify key tree benefits and create a priority map within Vernon. Urban forestry is one strategy to increase a city’s resilience. In addition to reducing the urban heat island effect, urban trees can help prevent flooding and runoff and remove pollutants before water enters rivers and oceans. Trees also filter air pollutants, improving air quality and producing public health benefits. .. .. Item 11 Page 22 of 81 City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan ImplementationImplementation 4342 Implementation City of Vernon Environmental Sustainability Action Plan CHAPTER 3 Management The City’s Health and Environmental Control Department will lead the implementation of the ESAP. However, specific strategies and actions may fall under the jurisdiction of other City departments, including Public Utilities and Public Works. Implementation progress will be guided by the Green Vernon Commission (GVC), an established committee with representation from the business, labor, and environmental communities to champion sustainability throughout the City, will provide ongoing guidance and support for the implementation of the ESAP, and identify new opportunities for sustainability. Monitoring and Reporting The City is committed to tracking the ESAP’s implementation progress and reporting to the GVC. The ESAP includes actions that were identified to improve sustainability throughout Vernon. The GVC will be charged with evaluating and prioritizing the actions based on a set of evaluation criteria that will include, at minimum, the cost impacts, feasibility, and co-benefits. This ESAP is a living document. It is expected that, over time, City, business, and community priorities may shift, new legislation will be introduced, and environmental conditions will change. Funding sources, regulations, and City staff and partnering organizations will also evolve. To ensure the ESAP stays relevant, progress will be monitored regularly, on an annual basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of sustainability goals and strategies, and to make course corrections where needed. The ESAP incorporates performance metrics that establish measurable criteria for its goals on an annual basis, unless otherwise specified. Funding With respect to funding, it is beyond the scope of this ESAP to develop a detailed cost-benefit analysis of every action. Actions using the City’s general fund will go through the standard City Council approval process, including a financial impact analysis and inclusion in the City budget. As a part of its annual budget process, the City may appropriate funding from its general fund or make changes in its fee schedules, utility rates, and other sources as needed to support funding the implementation of the sustainability measures. With an adopted ESAP, the City’s ability to seek federal and state grants will be enhanced. .. ..

GHG emissions, extreme heat Federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act The Federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, passed in 2021, authorizes approximately $550 billion in new federal investment in America’s transportation, communication, and water infrastructure, with much of the funding geared toward the clean energy transition and increasing resilience to climate change. The legislation includes the following: • $39 billion of new investment to modernize transit and improve accessibility for the elderly and people with disabilities. • $7.5 billion to build a national network of electric vehicle chargers. • $73 billion for power infrastructure and clean energy transmission. • $110 billion for roads, bridges, and other major projects. • $11 billion in transportation safety programs. • $39 billion in transit modernization and improved accessibility. Transportation, Energy Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund The Inflation Reduction Act amended the Clean Air Act to create a new program: the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. This first-of-its- kind program will provide competitive grants to mobilize financing and leverage private capital for clean energy and climate projects that reduce GHG emissions—with an emphasis on projects that benefit low-income and disadvantaged communities—and further the Biden- Harris Administration’s commitment to environmental justice. The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund provides $27 billion to U.S. EPA for expenditure until September 30, 2024. This includes: • $7 billion for competitive grants to enable low-income and disadvantaged communities to deploy or benefit from zero- emission technologies, including distributed technologies on residential rooftops; • Nearly $12 billion for competitive grants to eligible entities to provide financial and technical assistance to projects that reduce or avoid GHG emissions; and • $8 billion for competitive grants to eligible entities to provide financial and technical assistance to projects that reduce or avoid GHG emissions in low-income and disadvantaged communities. GHG Strategy Timeframe Lead Department Resilient and Efficient Codes Implementation $225 million for the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to advance state and local jurisdiction efficiency and resilience of building energy codes, as well as provide long-term sustainability of measures and savings, and address equity, energy, environmental justice, and resilience priorities. Funding is appropriated for “eligible entities to enable sustained cost-effective implementation of updated building energy codes” through a competitive grant process over five years (Fiscal Years 2022 through 2026). Awardees eligible for this funding must include a relevant state agency, and priority will be given to teams that include strategic partnerships, such as a local building code agency, codes and standards developers, associations of builders and design and construction professionals, and many others. Projects must be tied to an updated building energy code, which includes any amendment or code update resulting in increased energy efficiency as compared to the previously adopted code. Energy Pollution Prevention (P2) Grant Program P2 grants provide technical assistance to businesses to help them develop and adopt source reduction practices (also known as “pollution prevention” or “P2”). “P2” means reducing or eliminating pollutants from entering any waste stream or otherwise released into the environment prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. Waste and Materials WaterSense WaterSense is a voluntary partnership program sponsored by the U.S. EPA, and is both a label for water-efficient products and a resource for helping residents and businesses save water. Water Safe Routes to Schools Safe Routes to Schools is an international movement focused on increasing the number of children who walk or bike to school by funding projects that remove barriers to doing so. These barriers include a lack of infrastructure and non-infrastructure projects, safety, and limited programs that promote walking and bicycling. In California, two separate Safe Routes to School programs are available at both the state and federal levels, and both programs fund qualifying infrastructure projects.

During the meeting, participants introduced themselves by sharing their names, agencies, and roles. They also discussed the sustainability issues they considered most important for the City to address. A main concern raised by many participants was climate change, which they identified as the most significant, and global issue to tackle. They emphasized that addressing climate change is closely intertwined with, and can positively affect all other areas of sustainability. Another major concern identified was transportation, specifically truck emissions and improvements in public transit. Fiscal sustainability was also identified as a concern, as it is necessary for the City to have the resources for program development and implementation. Other issues of high concern included: • Waste management, especially industrial waste and recycling. .. .. Item 11 Page 31 of 81 Outreach Memorandum • Water usage, conservation, sustainable practices like greywater systems, and reducing reliance on imported water. • Air quality and pollution, particularly exposure to toxins in the air and water. • Energy efficiency. • Greenhouse gas emissions related to traffic and transportation. • The origin of the food supply. The project team stressed that all the identified sustainability issues are interconnected with climate change. Green Vernon Commission Meeting (December 2023) The project team met with the Green Vernon Commission (GVC) via a virtual meeting on December 21, 2022, at 3:30 pm to present an overview of the Sustainability Plan project and the current tasks, including the Existing Conditions Assessment and preparation for Outreach and Engagement activities. The meeting covered the findings of the existing conditions assessment, including climate change, and strategies for upcoming outreach such as for a virtual survey, and priority sustainability sectors identified from the first Steering Committee meeting. The GVC provided recommendations for the project team, areas of priority to address within the Sustainability Plan: • Consider jobs and local economy/businesses • Consider air quality and pollution regulations • Increase green public spaces • Identify funding available from grants • Identify cost-effective strategies Steering Committee Meeting (January 2023) The City held a second virtual meeting of the Steering Committee on January 19, 2023, at 2 pm to discuss outreach and engagement activities, and specifically the preparation of a virtual survey for Vernon community members.

The Steering Committee recommended that the survey be directed primarily towards businesses, employees, and residents. The aim was to reach people who live and work in Vernon. Multiple avenues were explored to maximize response rates. It was suggested to translate the survey into Korean, Chinese, and Spanish to cater to Vernon’s diverse audience. While the survey initially focused on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, it was suggested to broaden its scope to highlight resource sustainability and other equally important sectors to those living and working in Vernon. Sustainability Plan Workshop City Staff (June 2023) The Vernon Sustainability Action Plan Workshop was held on June 8, 2023, at 2 pm.

The team shared candidate goals and strategies across sectors for the Sustainability Plan, including information on the challenges and opportunities within Vernon that supported the strategies. City staff provided additional information and recommendations for the project team to connect the strategies to the City’s existing programs and projects, including: • Transition to renewable energy and electrification, • Replacing natural gas usage, • Use of materials exchange platforms, • Analysis of existing and potential urban tree canopy, and • Stormwater management techniques. .. .. Item 11 Page 34 of 81 Outreach Memorandum Community Survey (May 2023) The project team prepared the City of Vernon's Sustainability Survey in coordination with City staff and with input from the Steering Committee, and provide in English, Spanish, Korean, and Simplified Chinese. The survey was distributed to Vernon City staff, businesses and employers, and residents with the goal of capturing a wide array of responses from Vernon’s community that would help prioritize development of sustainability strategies within the ESAP. The survey was intended to help reach other audiences outside of the Steering Committee and one-on-one meetings with businesses, to ensure the Sustainability Plan accurately reflected the priorities of those who live and work in Vernon. The survey was open to the public from May 2, 2023 through May 23, 2023, and distributed via email and hosted on the City’s webpage. The survey received 245 responses from Vernon community members. The survey results provided valuable information, indicating three important areas that respondents wanted the City to focus on for sustainability: 1. Water (e.g., conservation, rainwater capture, water recycling, greywater) (25.6%) 2. Helping businesses/industries be more sustainable and resource-efficient (24.8%) 3. Climate resiliency (e.g., reducing heat islands with green space, trees, etc.; providing cooling centers) (15.5%) Additionally, the survey shed light on the top three issues participants are most concerned with: 4. Drinking water quality (70.16%) 5. Utility cost (70.16%) 6. Air pollution (68.6%) .. .. Item 11 Page 35 of 81 Outreach Memorandum One-on-One Engagement with Vernon Businesses (December 2022 – July 2023) SmallHold Smallhold, the first Certified Organic mushroom farm in LA County, prioritizes sustainability with a mission to enhance agriculture’s impact on the environment and on human health. Smallhold’s operations maximize water and energy efficiency and contribute to the circular materials economy by using sawdust waste for its mushroom-growing substrate and composting 100% of spent substrate. Smallhold’s Vernon site receives 15-20K lbs. weekly of sawdust substrate blocks that have been sterilized and inoculated with mushroom spores. Smallhold is exploring dehydration methods to extend shelf life and reduce food waste. They currently donate surplus mushrooms to the Helping Hands Society of Los Angeles for hunger relief. Smallhold collaborates with UC Riverside on soil remediation and green space creation and hopes to help put these studies into practice in Vernon. Crown Poly Crown Poly, founded in Los Angeles in 1991, produces film plastic and bags for home and commercial uses. Crown Poly’s sustainability practices include using shrimp shells to make plastic adhesive, local sourcing of pallets, inks and corrugated cardboard, and sourcing recycled plastic feedstock, including recovered ocean plastics. To produce home-compostable bags, Crown Poly imports a compostable bioplastic from Europe. Crown Poly donates misprinted and surplus bags to charities. Crown Poly reduces its transportation footprint by recruiting and hiring employees from within a 30-mile radius of the Vernon plant (10 miles for production staff) and by sponsoring employee carpooling and free electric vehicle charging. Strategic Materials Inc. Strategic Materials Inc. (SMI)’s Vernon facility processes glass-rich materials from recycling programs and from industry into color-separated glass cullet for new glass products. Batteries recovered from the incoming feedstock are sent to local processors for further sorting and then extraction of valuable metals. The company also recycles pallets, cardboard, and ferrous metals. To save energy, the plant uses LED lighting. The facility employs 30-35 staff, offering “second chance” employment for individuals who have been in the criminal justice system. SMI prioritizes bringing more women into its workforce, running a forum called “Breaking The Glass Ceiling” to highlight its female employee’s achievements and to support women’s career advancement. SMI provides employees with refillable water bottles and bottle-filling stations and runs a “Glass Warriors” initiative to promote employee environmental literacy and action, both professionally and personally. Golden West Foods, Inc. Golden West Food Groups (GWFG) is a bulk supplier of raw, frozen, and prepared foods for retail, commercial and institutional use. Since 2012, GWFG has been reporting on its own sustainability performance, taking into account its use of materials and energy sources.

It also specifies the use of 50% minimum recycled content in its paperboard products, and sources these products from a local processor which uses GWFG’s own recyclable paper and cardboard as feedstock. GWFG also subscribes to a pallet-management system to minimize wasted shipping pallets. GWFG reduces its energy intake and emissions through upgraded equipment such as LED light bulbs, on-demand lighting, chillers for space cooling, and energy-efficient compressors. GWFG reduces its transportation carbon footprint by scheduling its work shifts to minimize commute time and by optimizing its boxes and pallet loads to utilize the maximum space on each truck. Gavina Coffee Gaviña Coffee is a minority and family-owned coffee roaster that prioritizes a greener coffee footprint through sustainable sourcing, operational efficiency, and social stewardship. Gaviña repurposes its coffee chaff as an ingredient in animal feed. The company has retrofitted its swamp coolers to save water, and it replenishes groundwater through its permeable patios. Energy efficiency measures include free electric vehicle charging, electric forklifts, infrared coffee bean roasting, and on-site inert gas production. Gaviña Coffee provides free meals for its staff on Saturdays, sourced from local establishments. Helping Hands Society of Los Angeles Helping Hands Society of Los Angeles (HHOLA) is a non-profit organization that serves people in need in 25 cities within LA county and surrounding counties.

HHOLA also offers household items and furniture. HHOLA donates the 5% of food not suitable for human consumption to farms for animal feed. To expand the types of food it can accept and distribute, HHOLA hopes to build walk-in coolers and freezers. HHOLA is grateful for its network of donors, wholesalers, and produce distributors who have helped it bring hope to people in times of despair and need. .. .. Item 11 Page 37 of 81 Appendix B: Existing Conditions Assessment .. .. Item 11 Page 38 of 81 March 16, 2023 Freddie Agyin and Lisa Umeda, City of Vernon Jeff Caton and Stephanie Cadena, Environmental Science Associates Environmental Sustainability Action Plan – Existing Conditions Report Summary The Environmental Sustainability Action Plan will serve as a framework for addressing environmental and sustainability issues in the City of Vernon (City), with focus on core areas of air quality and greenhouse gas emissions, climate change adaption and resilience, energy efficiency, transportation, water, materials and waste, food production and security, and green business and economic development. This summary presents findings from a review of existing plans, policies, programs, and initiatives related to sustainability for the Environmental Sustainability Action Plan (ESAP) under contract Task A.1, Existing Conditions Report. Assessing current initiatives and planned actions allows for the identification of policy or program gaps that should be addressed in the ESAP and assists with aligning actions with regional and State goals. A quick-reference summary of the relevance of existing plans, programs, and policies to the ESAP is provided in Attachment A – Relevant Plans, Policies, and Programs, followed by a table summarizing the sectors addressed by existing documents in Attachment B – Policy Relevance of Local and Regional Initiatives to the ESAP. Finally, a listing of recommended actions from the 2011 Sustainability Action Plan is provided in Attachment C – Targets and Actions of the 2011 Sustainability Action Plan. Sustainability Highlights As described in more detail below, the City is currently engaged with various program and planning efforts that are aligned with the goals of the ESAP. This includes City departments and commissions, such as the City’s Department of Environmental Health and Control and the Green Vernon Commission (GVC); Vernon is one of only four cities throughout California with a health department that is focused on environmental health and safety of the community, and the GVC is one of three municipal bodies within the Gateway Cities region that is dedicated to addressing community issues around sustainability. Additionally, the City operates its own public utility, Vernon Public Utilities (VPU), that serves as an essential resource to the City’s residents and business community, providing dependable, high-quality utility services at a significant cost savings compared to neighboring utility providers. VPU is uniquely positioned in the state of California, in that it is one of only two utilities in California that provides electricity, natural gas, water and fiber optic services. The City is in the process of updating its Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP), and General Plan Housing and Safety elements. The public drafts of the LHMP and the Housing Element both include climate change considerations that extend to the sustainability of the built environment, particularly for ensuring existing .. .. Item 11 Page 39 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 3 infrastructure and buildings are designed and maintained for long-term service. The City is also developing the Westside Specific Plan to spur development of diverse and mixed land uses, increase the City’s residential population, increase amenities for residents and employees, and attract new talent and innovation, while maintaining the City’s reputation and competitive advantage as a center of industrial production. Recently the City has completed an Urban Tree Canopy (UTC) assessment in partnership with the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (GCCOG), Loyola Marymount University Center for Urban Resilience (LMU CURes), and TreePeople. The assessment found that up to 51 percent of the City’s surface area could accommodate tree plantings and identified highly suitable locations for prioritizing plantings. The UTC anticipates communitywide benefits from tree plantings that include greener spaces and beautification, shading, mitigation for heat, improvements to local air quality, and improvements to pedestrian pathways. There are also a number of previous regional efforts relating to regional sustainability and climate action planning that include the City of Vernon, which help provide a solid foundation for the Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Climate Change and Resilience sectors of the ESAP. This includes the GCCOG’s Climate Action Planning (CAP) Framework (2018), the County of Los Angeles (LA County) OurCounty Sustainability Plan (2019), and the Southern California Association of Governments’ (SCAG) Regional Climate Adaptation Framework (2021). Existing Policies and Programs A summary of the City’s existing policies and programs, as relevant to sustainability, is provided in Attachment B – Policy Relevance of Local and Regional Initiatives to the ESAP. The results of our analysis indicate that the City has a strong foundation of policies and programs for increasing sustainability and addressing social, economic, and environmental factors across many sectors: Air Quality and GHG Emissions: Community GHG inventories for the City of Vernon have been developed for the calendar year 2010 by the GCCOG, and for the years 2015 and 2018 by the County of Los Angeles. ESA has the background data used to develop these inventories. The City is subject to mandatory GHG reporting under U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The City also has existing municipal GHG inventories for the years 2010 through 2020, and a Greenhouse Gas Inventory Management Plan that outlines the City’s procedures for calculating and reporting emissions for internal purposes. There is also regional air monitoring and air quality data available from the South Coast Air Quality Management District through its AB 617 programs in communities near Vernon, particularly for diesel particulate matter (diesel PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience: The 2011 Sustainability Plan for Vernon provides targets and actions to address sustainability across various sectors (energy, transportation and land use, water, and waste). Additionally, there are other local and regional resources that provide opportunities to build on climate change adaptation and resilience efforts in Vernon. The City’s 2022 Public Draft of the LHMP provides an assessment of hazards in Vernon and discusses the impacts of climate change, including drought, severe weather patterns, flooding, epidemic/pandemic, and air pollution. It also provides a vulnerability assessment for physical and social vulnerabilities from identified hazards. The City’s recently completed UTC assessment (2022) identifies suitable locations for new tree plantings, with the goal of expanding urban forestry and mitigating for the impacts of extreme heat. Further, as a member of SCAG, Vernon has access to recent data and resources for climate change adaptation planning, which may prove useful in developing strategies to prepare for the impacts of extreme heat, .. .. Item 11 Page 40 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 4 increasingly frequent and damaging wildfires and worsening air quality, storms and flooding, and other climate- related hazards. The City Council recently received an update to the VPU 2022 Wildfire Mitigation Plan for the implementation of preventative strategies and mitigation measures to minimize the risk of wildfires caused by electrical lines and equipment and has no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Energy (Building Energy/Energy Use): The VPU staff are participating members of the ESAP’s Steering Committee. The VPU’s Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), which is in the process of being updated, provides data on energy demands and projections, as well as estimates for future renewable energy supply and GHG emission reductions. The IRP outlines actions for meeting state goals for renewable energy supply and increasing local resilience of the energy system. The IRP is currently being updated by VPU. AB 1890 provides for programs and rebates to customers for Energy Efficiency; research, development and demonstration (RD&D) Investments; Renewables, and; Low Income. In accordance with AB 802, the City assists customers in reporting energy use data to the California Energy Commission annually. Transportation: The City’s policies regarding transportation are contained in key documents including the General Plan Circulation Element and Bicycle Master Plan. Once completed, the Westside Specific Plan may also develop infrastructure policies and projects that guide transportation within the study area. City policies for transportation are centered around coordination with various agencies such as Metro, neighboring cities, Caltrans, and private entities such as rail yards and local businesses that move goods, to balance usage of the transportation system, reduce congestion, and promote safety for all road users. Beyond coordination with key entities, specific projects such as freeway ramps, I-710, signal coordination, and the LA River Path are specifically identified as projects to be pursued. Recent studies for the LA River Path project have evaluated potential options for improving the active transportation system in and around Vernon – Fehr and Peers supported the development of the City’s LA River Active Transportation Access Study in 2018, identifying suitable corridors for improving connections between the river, and key corridors and destinations in Vernon. Additionally, there is discussion of multimodal improvements and other considerations, such as grade separations and identifying areas where trucks must maneuver local streets during periods of high congestion, though there is a lack of specificity regarding locations or approaches to enacting these policies. Vernon retains control over local right-of-way; however, the City must work with Caltrans for I-710 and local rail providers and property owners to develop private rail spurs and yards. The City’s Bicycle Master Plan introduces five goals with 23 strategies – no formal policies were proposed or adopted as a part of this effort. The City’s Bicycle Master Plan contains a review of existing policies relevant for active transportation and can be found in Appendix 2 of that document. Water: The City’s has existing policies that address water resources, potential water shortages and drought within the General Plan, Water Conservation Ordinance, and Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). These policies are intended to reduce water usage in periods of shortage, and include watering days, limits to outdoor watering, and obligations for fixing leaks in a timely manner. Recycled water is used by the Malburg Generating Station and opportunities for expanding the recycling system is an option for VPU. Materials and Waste: City policies, plans, and programs that focus on waste management are limited, and there is little information on compliance status towards state-mandated organics recycling (Senate Bill 1383). The City’s Public Draft of the LHMP provides a recommended action for the City to continue working with waste service contractors for increasing public and industrial knowledge of safe disposal practices, though this is focused on hazardous waste materials. Similarly, the General Plan provides policies for increasing safety from hazardous material waste and disposal sites. The City provides annual reporting of solid waste tonnage by hauler, .. .. Item 11 Page 41 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 5 and also provides electronic waste recycling and disposal events for businesses and residents, to encourage proper disposal practices. Food Production and Security: The City collects information on the number of food service facilities, including rendering, cold storage, and USDA-regulated facilities, as well as commercial edible food generators. However, there is a lack of data on food supply and production (where food is coming from) and edible food recovery. Participants of the ESAP Steering Committee has identified food production and recovery/waste as a sustainability issue of concern in the City, and has noted there are many industries willing to increase recycling as it relates to the food system. The City’s health department works with industries to ensure compliance with health codes and regulations, and coordinates with the AQMD to remain informed of issues relating to rendering operations. Green Business and Economic Development: The VPU offers incentive and rebate programs to all customers for energy efficiency, solar/photovoltaic installations, and natural gas upgrades in buildings. VPU offers Free Comprehensive Energy Audits to Vernon utility customers. The energy audit is a good starting point for customers interested in developing a broader energy management strategy. Customers receive detailed analysis of their energy usage, followed by suggestions for improved energy efficient efforts, which can lead to significant energy and cost savings. In addition to recommending traditional methods of increasing energy efficiency such as upgrading light fixtures, the audits may recommend newer energy efficient technologies unique to industrial customers, including replacement of motors and air compressors. If the customers decide to move forward with the energy efficiency measures, VPU provides incentives through its Public Benefits Program or Cap & Trade funded Natural Gas Rebate Program. The current development of the Westside Specific Plan is considering opportunities for new industries and uses to come to Vernon – there is potential to attract green business and industry through this plan and consider uses that bring greener, and more sustainable practices and technologies. There is also potential for expanding on existing green business and economic development, though there is limited information on current programs, policies, and resources oriented towards green business. Baseline Conditions Demographics As of the 2020 Census the total residential population in Vernon is 222 people, though the daytime population is estimated near 50,000. The majority of residents identify as Hispanic or Latino. Children under five make up 8.5 percent of the population, and 39.5 percent of the population is under 18 years old. Community members 65 years or older make up 13 percent of the population. There are 78 housing units in Vernon, and 78 percent of households have individuals that speak a language other than English (U.S. Census Bureau, 2020). In 2020, 13 percent of people in Vernon had a four-year college degree educational attainment and an employment rate of 56 percent. This demographic data provides a preliminary view of potential social vulnerabilities in the residential community, which include people of color, children, seniors, and non-English speakers. This data will be considered during the development of strategies for climate change and community resilience, intended to help build resilience communitywide to impacts of extreme heat, worsening air quality, flooding and storms, and drought. .. .. Item 11 Page 42 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 6 Air Quality and GHG Emissions Communitywide GHG Inventories With respect to GHG emissions, the GCCOG’s CAP Framework project provides a collection of inventories and forecasts, reduction targets, and strategies for reducing emissions across the economic sectors of land use and transportation; energy; solid waste; water and urban greening. The GCCOG’s CAP Framework provides the City with a 2010 communitywide GHG inventory, which establishes a basis for measuring future climate action progress, as well as emissions forecasts for the years 2020, 2030 and 2040. Additionally, the County of Los Angeles has developed communitywide GHG inventories for Vernon for the calendar years 2015 and 2018. These inventories are described in more detail within Attachment A – Relevant Plans and Programs. Table 1 below summarizes the data collected from those efforts. For the sectors evaluated, the inventories show similar results except for on-road transportation (it is not clear yet what is included under “other combustion” in the 2018 LA County inventory). For the three sectors not evaluated by the County at the City level (off-road equipment, water conveyance, and short-lived climate pollutants or SLCPs), the 2010 numbers from the GCCOG inventory (indicated by italics) are inserted for 2015 and 2018 for the purpose of comparing the inventory totals. The County’s inventories indicate that emissions from on-road transportation dropped approximately six percent and 20 percent from 2010 levels in 2015 and 2018, respectively (as indicated in Table 1 below). Our review of the underlying data for these inventories reveals that the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) data in 2015 and 2018 changed only slightly from 2010 levels; thus, it is evident that the County estimated on-road transportation emissions for 2015 and 2018 using emission factors that differ significantly from those used for 2010. Table 1: Comparison of Vernon GHG Inventories (community-wide) for 2010, 2015, and 2018 As the project moves into the stakeholder engagement phase under Task B.4, Develop Candidate Strategies, ESA will re-calculate on-road transportation emissions for all three years using consistent methods and emission factors. In doing so we expect to see a smaller change in on-road transportation emissions across the three inventory years. In addition, we will be estimating City of Vernon emissions for off-road equipment, water .. .. Item 11 Page 43 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 7 conveyance and SLCPs, if possible, depending on available data, so that meaningful comparisons can be made across the three inventory years, informing the strategies developed for the ESAP. The forecasts provided by GCCOG are based on the expected growth of the City’s residents and businesses through the year 2040, as determined by SCAG in its 2016 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The forecasts do not account for important statewide regulations and policies that will reduce emissions significantly over time, including requirements to increase vehicle fuel efficiency, increase proliferation of electric vehicles, and decrease the GHS associated with electricity production. However, VPU is subject to state mandates to meet renewable portfolio targets. Municipal GHG Inventories The City has developed municipal GHG inventories from 2010 through 2020 (except for 2014) that provide valuable information of major polluting sources (sectors) within the City’s control. The VPU continues to manage the GHG inventory for its gas, electric, generation, and SF6 reporting to U.S. EPA and CARB. Documentation of methods and activity data for the inventories is provided in the City’s GHG Inventory Management Plan (updated July 2022). In 2010, GHG emissions totaled 22,570 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent (MTCO2e); in 2020 this had increased to 26,595 MTCO2e, an increase of almost 18 percent over 10 years. For all years, the greatest source of emissions is attributed to power generating facilities (power transmission and distribution). Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience As part of the ESAP development, the City held its first meeting of the Steering Committee in November 2022 with participation from City of Vernon department heads and stakeholders. Within this meeting, a majority of participants noted climate change as a primary concern for Vernon and its relevance to other areas of sustainability. Expected impacts from climate change in Vernon include deteriorating air quality, more severe and prolonged droughts, more extreme weather conditions, increased risk of flooding, and an increase in pandemic/vector-borne diseases. These threats will not affect everything and everyone equally. Certain populations will experience the impacts of climate change earlier, more often, or more severely, such as children and seniors, the economically disadvantaged, and those with disabilities or pre-existing health issues. Climate change and its impacts add to the cumulative stresses already experienced by populations that lack adequate financial resources, those living in communities with higher incidences of crime, or who have limited access to employment, higher education, health insurance, or personal transportation. The state designates the City of Vernon as a disadvantaged and low-income community that faces greater and disproportionate impacts due to air pollutants and toxic contaminants, groundwater threats, cleanup sites, hazardous waste, and solid waste sites. A review of climate change data for the City of Vernon finds the following conditions and expected impacts for the following hazards: Extreme heat: Maximum temperatures and the number, and intensity, of extreme heat days are expected to increase. Historically, the maximum average temperature in Vernon is 76°F; this maximum is expected to increase up to 88°F by 2100 (Cal-Adapt, 2021). Additionally, the City has historically experienced an average of .. .. Item 11 Page 44 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 8 2 extreme heat days per year; this is expected to increase up to 64 days by 2100. Warm nights are also expected to increase, from 6 historically, up to 99 nights in 2100. Air Quality and Wildfires: Vernon is not located within a fire hazard severity zone or fire threat area, however, increasing number and severity of regional wildfires are expected to worsen air quality by increasing particulate matter concentration in the region. Recent data shows that particulate matter (PM 2.5) concentration in Vernon is approximately 12.2 micrograms per meter cubed (m3), which is greater than 88 percent of other communities statewide (OEHHA, 2021). Diesel particulate matter (diesel PM) concentration in Vernon is also found to be greater than 88 percent of other communities statewide, with approximately 0.46 tons of diesel PM emitted into the air per year. Vector-borne diseases: Climate change impacts on weather patterns, particularly warming temperatures, can create suitable conditions for vector-borne diseases to thrive and spread; mosquito and tick-borne illnesses present transmission risks of Zika, dengue fever, yellow fever, West Nile Virus, and Lyme Disease, among others (SCAG, 2020). There is growing concern from health professionals of the potential for invasive vector species to acclimate to southern California’s warming climate and increase diseases. Extreme drought: Vernon, and the greater LA region, is currently in Severe Drought (D2) conditions due to decreases in average annual precipitation, soil moisture, snowpack, stream flows, and surface and groundwater levels; D2 conditions indicate the region can expect to see a longer fire season with greater burn intensity and larger fire spatial extent, greater stress on trees and plants, and increased risk of wildlife diseases (NIDIS, 2022).1 Prolonged periods of drought can result in regional water supply shortages, degraded habitats, increasing concentrations of pollutants and salinity in water resources, and challenges to new developments. Regional water supply from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) is expected to decrease. Floods and storms: Vernon will see increasingly longer periods between rain, with dry spells increasing from a historic average of 159 days up to 211 days annually (Cal-Adapt, 2021). The number of precipitation events and storms are generally expected to stay the same, though they are likely to increase in severity, meaning greater and more intense rainfall when it does come. Increase in storm severity may also bring more intense winds to the region. Vernon is not currently in a designated special flood hazard area; there are no 100-year floodplains or 500-year floodplains within the city (FEMA, 2021). Flood risk in the City is minimal, however, it is possible some infrastructure may be more vulnerable to unprecedented storm surge and river flooding. Energy Customers and Resources VPU serves 1,927 customers, which includes 1,765 commercial and industrial customers. For FY 2022, VPU’s peak demand (MW) was 194.3 and approximately 99% of retail sales are to commercial and industrial customers. VPU has several resources to meet the City’s load requirements. MGS, which is a city-owned combined cycle natural gas fired generating plant, supplies approximately 48% of the City’s load requirements, and 43% is supplied through eligible renewable resources. The remaining resources include large hydroelectric (2%) and nuclear (8%).

Transportation Vernon has 76 miles of local roadway and freeway. The I-710 provides a direct connection to the port of Long Beach and other highways that connect to the port of Los Angeles, from one of the largest railyards in the country, Hobart Yard. Key roadways in the City that provide connections to industrial businesses and neighboring jurisdictions (downtown Los Angeles, Boyle Heights, cities of Bell, Maywood, Huntington Park, and portions of unincorporated Los Angeles) include: • Alameda Street • Atlantic Boulevard • Bandini Boulevard • Downey Road • Leonis/District Boulevard • Pacific Boulevard • Santa Fe Avenue • Slauson Avenue • Soto Street • Vernon Avenue • Washington Boulevard Vernon is near the Metrolink Orange County and Riverside Lines (Commerce and Montebello/Commerce Stations) and the Metro Blue Line (Washington, Vernon, and Slauson Stations). Vernon is served by Metro lines 60, 105, 108, 251, 260, and 611, which operate on Atlantic Avenue, Vernon Avenue, Santa Fe Avenue, Soto Street, Leonis/District Boulevard, Pacific Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue. Montebello Bus Lines Route 50 operates on Washington Boulevard. The only existing bikeway in Vernon is the 0.78-mile stretch of the Los Angeles River bicycle path that goes from Atlantic Boulevard to Slauson Avenue. The City of Los Angeles and the City of Huntington Park have existing bikeways, although none of these bikeways connect directly with Vernon. The Metro Blue Line First/Last Mile Plan identifies projects that could enhance bicycle and pedestrian access to the Washington, Vernon, and Slauson A (Blue) Line Stations, located a half-mile or less from the city border. In regard to Vernon’s fleet the City has approximately 153 vehicles, the majority of which are gasoline-fueled light-duty trucks. The City has five electric vehicles and four that are gasoline/electric. Clean transportation infrastructure appears to be limited to two private, electric charging stations in western Vernon (near CRL Manufacturing) (Open Charge Map, 2022). There are no hydrogen fueling station locations within the City. Water Vernon is supplied through groundwater, imported water, and recycled water from the CBMWD Division 3. Suppliers include the California Water Service Company (East Los Angeles District, Commerce System) which serves some of the northeast area of the City, and Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3 which services a .. .. Item 11 Page 46 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 10 small portion of southeast Vernon. Over the past 10 years, water use in Vernon has primarily consisted of commercial and industrial uses (85 percent), followed by water use dedicated to power generation (10 percent), and the remaining for residential and other uses (5 percent) (City of Vernon, 2021a). The City has no surface water supply and does not divert stormwater for capture purposes. The City draws its groundwater supply from the Central Groundwater Basin and has an Allowed Pumping Allocation (APA) of 7,539 acre-feet per year (AFY). In 2022, the City’s water production was 6,513 AFY and purchased 725 AFY of recycled water for the MGS, for power plant cooling purposes. Recycled water purchasing is currently limited to the MGS. Expansion of the recycled water system falls under the purview of the CBMWD; though there are projects planned for expanding recycled water in jurisdictions near Vernon (Bell Gardens, Lynwood, South Gate, Pico Rivera, Downey) none of these are currently planned to expand recycled water connections in the City. Over time, water demand in Vernon is expected to increase due to the intensity of commercial and industrial uses in the City. The City’s Urban Water Management Plan ascertains that Vernon’s infrastructure, designed to meet the needs of commercial and industrial uses, is robust and able to meet future water needs. The UWMP projects water demand through 2045 and notes the City’s sources of water will be able to meet this demand under normal and dry years, including periods of drought. Much of the City’s water is dedicated to customers for industrial processes (industrial and commercial uses). As such, the City provides water service at some of the lowest rates in the region to attract commercial and industrial customers, and avoids conservation pricing for water use reduction as it was determined to have a negligible effect on water savings and a negative effect on attracting more customers (City of Vernon, 2021a). Materials and Waste The majority of solid waste in Vernon is generated from manufacturing. Based on Vernon’s employment data by business sector and statewide averages of materials generation for those sectors, food manufacturing generates the highest amount of waste, estimated at almost 35 percent. This is followed by other manufacturing (30 percent), and wholesale and trucking (25 percent) while other business groups represent less than four percent of Vernon’s total generation (CalRecycle, 2022). By material categories, organics represent the greatest estimated percentage of total generation (27 percent), followed by metal (27 percent), paper (26 percent), inerts and other (11 percent), and plastic (7 percent). Other categories generate less than 2 percent. In 2021 the City’s hauled solid waste totaled 135,073 tons, a decrease of eight percent from the previous year (City of Vernon, 2021b). The majority was serviced by Republic Services (Vernon is serviced by 14 haulers: AAA Rubbish, American Reclamation, Athens Services, CalMet, CR&R Incorporated, GB Rubbish, Hal-Away Rubbish, Key Disposal, NASA, Quality Waste, Republic Services, Serv-wel, Universal Waste Services, Ware Disposal, Waste and Recycling Services, and Waste Management). Most of the City’s waste is disposed of at Sunshine Canyon, approximately 30 miles northwest of Vernon. In 2019, major disposal destinations included Sunshine Canyon (47 percent), El Sobrante Landfill in Corona (20 percent), and Olinda Alpha Landfill in Brea (12 percent). .. .. Item 11 Page 47 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 11 Food Production and Security Vernon is home to several, industrial food service facilities, including warehouse and refrigeration, processing, and commercial agriculture types, and a large number that are dedicated to meat/poultry processing. These include approximately 22 cold storage facilities and five rendering facilities, which provide animal feed, fertilizer, and biofuel from animal by-products. Commercial food service in the City is limited to supporting the daytime population. There are few markets and groceries, and no farmer’s markets in the City. In 2022 the City welcomed Smallhold Mushroom Farm, a large-scale urban mushroom farming business that uses indoor agriculture technology to grow several mushroom varieties. The business locates in urban areas to grow and sell locally, with goals to reduce VMT associated with food transportation, use sustainable packaging (compostable cardboard), extend food shelf life, and reduce food waste, for a reduced carbon footprint to traditional mushroom-growing. Green Business and Economic Development The City is home to approximately 1,800 businesses, a majority of which are involved in food manufacturing, and provide significant benefit to the regional economy (Vernon Chamber of Commerce, 2022). Vernon offers a prime location for business due to lowered permit fees and costs for electricity, water, and natural gas utility rates; a municipal health department to regulate industrial operations and help businesses streamline monitoring and enforcement of health regulations; and major transportation connections that include the Port of Long Beach. The City was recognized as "Most Business Friendly City" in Los Angeles County in 2008, and named a finalist for "Most Business Friendly City" in 2021 and 2022 Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC). This recognition is for demonstrating leadership in economic development through efforts that encourage job creation and attract, support, and retain businesses. The City’s 2018 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) notes that the majority of the City’s industrial customers have an occupancy history of up to 80 years, and the 25 largest customers have an average 31-year tenancy in Vernon. There are several businesses in Vernon that are focused on sustainable practices as a product or service, including rendering, glass-recycling, and urban farming. The City provides information on its website to encourage sustainable business and practices that support economic development, including local workforce training and recycling; the City points to Cerritos College for employee training focused on manufacturing, business, management, and leadership skills, and provides information from CalReycle on financing and resources to businesses for using materials from the waste stream in their product manufacturing. In regard to local employment, almost 70 percent of residents are estimated to work within Vernon, but they make up less than one percent of the City’s total workforce (City of Vernon, 2022a). The majority of the workforce, almost 54 percent, commutes from less than 10 miles away; approximately 34 percent commute from 10 to 50 miles and 13 percent commute from over 50 miles. The top-ten cities that contribute to Vernon’s workforce (46 percent of the total workforce) include: Los Angeles (27 percent), Huntington Park (3 percent), South Gate (3 percent), East Los Angeles (3 percent), Long Beach, Florence-Graham, and Downey (2 percent each), and Maywood, Compton, and Lynwood (under 2 percent each). The remaining (54 percent) commute from other, surrounding cities and communities. .. .. Item 11 Page 48 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 12 Findings and Recommendations For the ESAP, the City can build on existing initiatives to develop a comprehensive approach to addressing environmental and sustainability issues in the city and increase community resilience. Based on a review of existing plans, programs and policies, ESA makes the following recommendations in developing sustainability strategies for improving the City’s sustainability performance across the eight sectors below, with plans for future stakeholder engagement to help finetune priority strategies.

Item 11 Page 51 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 15 Attachment A – Relevant Plans, Policies, and Programs Local City of Vernon Greenhouse Gas Inventorying Greenhouse Gas Inventory Management Plan The July 2022 update of the City’s Greenhouse Gas Inventory Management Plan (GHG IMP) outlines the procedures used to calculate and report GHG emissions. It contains specific information regarding data collection and management, emissions quantification, and requirements for reporting. The City is subject to mandatory reporting under U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB). Prior to 2015, the City also reported to The Climate Registry (TCR), a voluntary reporting agency supporting the collection and verification of GHG data consistently across jurisdictions. TCR guidance is still used to prepare a comprehensive GHG emissions inventory for internal purposes, when needed. Calendar year 2020 (data year 2019) was the last year a complete TCR GHG emissions inventory was prepared according to TCR guidance. Municipal GHG Inventories (2010 – 2020) The City has developed municipal GHG inventories for the years 2010 through 2020 (except for 2014) as part of reporting for TCR, in addition to reporting to U.S. EPA and CARB for the City’s Generation, Gas, Electric, and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). The most recent GHG inventory for the year 2020 provides emissions data for Scope 1 (Stationary Combustion, Mobile Combustion, Fugitive emissions), and Scope 2 (Purchased Electricity). This includes the following source types: • Facility (stationary combustion, refrigerant usage, fire suppression, indirect electricity), • Streetlights and traffic controls indirect electricity, • Water delivery (stationary combustion and indirect electricity), • Power plant (stationary combustion, SF6, and indirect electricity), • Vehicle fleet (on-road mobile combustion, off-road mobile combustion, refrigerant usage), and • Natural gas transmission and distribution fugitive. City of Vernon Sustainability Action Plan (2011) The 2011 Sustainability Action Plan covers the City’s history addressing sustainability issues, provides baseline data, and includes goals, targets, actions, and implementation timeframes in the areas of: GHG emissions, Energy Efficiency, Transportation and Land Use, Water Conservation, and Waste Management. Additional sections include green business and manufacturing, resource conservation, and sustainable construction. The targets and actions from the 2011 Plan are included as Attachment C. These have not been implemented by the City and there is little information on the status or progress of the targets and actions set in the plan. .. ..

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update (in development) The Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) is undergoing an update that will provide an understanding of threats from natural and human-caused hazards in the community. The plan will also recommend specific actions to proactively decrease these threats before disasters occur. The September 2022 Public Draft of the LHMP identities hazards that could affect Vernon, and provides a risk assessment, description of vulnerabilities, capabilities assessment, and a hazard mitigation strategy. The Public Draft identifies seismic hazards and drought as high-threat hazards to the community, followed by medium-threat hazards of epidemic/pandemic, flooding, air pollution, hazardous materials, wind, and dam failure. The Public Draft also includes climate change considerations within its assessment of each hazard. For mitigation actions, the Public Draft prioritizes actions based on risks and threats, and considers costs of implementation. Relevant mitigation actions that relate to sustainability include: Preparedness/General • Maintain at least one emergency power-generating station in all critical facilities in the City. • Explore the feasibility of connecting critical facilities to a microgrid power supply network. • Install energy-efficient equipment to increase the longevity of backup generator fuel supplies. • Repair, as feasible, all major deficiencies discovered by inspections to prevent collapse, failure, or damage in the event of a natural disaster. • Coordinate with public and private utility operators to harden infrastructure and create redundant system connections between VPU and outside agencies/organizations. • Install and harden emergency backup power at City facilities, prioritizing installations for facilities that serve critical functions. • Conduct a feasibility assessment of the installation of solar and battery backup systems at key critical facilities within the City. • Work closely to increase awareness of hazard events and resiliency opportunities among socially vulnerable community members, including the homeless. • Avoid building new City-owned key facilities in mapped hazard areas. If no feasible sites outside of mapped areas exist, ensure that such facilities are hardened against hazards beyond any minimum building requirements/mitigation standards. Seismic • Encourage the installation of resilient (seismically appropriate) piping for new or replacement pipelines in close coordination with outside utility providers. • Coordinate closely with Vernon Public Utilities (VPU), MWD, California Water Service (CWS), and Maywood Mutual Water Company (MMWC) on water use and water conservation efforts throughout the City. • Periodically update "Chapter 13.20 Water Conservation, Sections 13.20.030 - 13.20.070” of the Vernon Municipal Code of Ordinances to reflect the latest advances in best practices in consumption, landscape design, and irrigation that reduce water use within the City. • Work with VPU, CWS, and MMWC to develop a focused water leak pilot program to eliminate leaky water mains, sprinklers, and other water fixtures, focusing on areas of the City with the greatest water demand. .. .. Item 11 Page 56 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 20 • Support indoor and outdoor water efficiency through community -wide education and rebate programs and continue to maintain these programs and other restrictions on water use in the absence of drought. Epidemic/Pandemic • Assess and institute necessary upgrades to critical facilities to allow for usage during a pandemic, including adequate ventilation and physical barriers. • Coordinate with surrounding jurisdictions, local health care providers, businesses, schools, the Vernon Health Department, the Los Angeles County Health Care Agency, the California Department of Public Health, and the Centers for Disease Control to inform community members about current public health trends or issues, free and low-cost healthcare options, treatments, and where to find local healthcare facilities. • Cooperate with the Vernon Health and Environmental Control Department, Greater Los Angeles County Vector Control District to inform community members on best practices for mosquito management and abatement. Flooding/Dam Inundation • Identify potential flood improvements that reduce inundation from both storm flows and potential dam inundation effects. • Investigate the use of permeable paving and landscaped swales for new construction and replacement of City owned hardscaped areas. • Conduct frequent cleanings of storm drain intakes, especially before and during the rainy season. • Track areas where ponding frequently occurs during heavy rainfall and install new drains or upgrade existing ones to reduce ponding of water. Air Pollution • Use the latest version of the CalEnviroScreen mapping tool to aid in the reduction of pollutant exposures to improve community health. • Create and implement a limited idling program throughout the City, especially for large trucks. • Conduct a feasibility study to explore the possibility of incentivizing and encouraging local businesses to convert their fleets to include both electric and hybrid vehicles. • Conduct a feasibility study for noxious odors and other air quality issues associated with industrial uses within the City that have operated for many decades. Identify potential mitigation strategies to reduce odor concerns and complaints through a partnership with businesses in the City. Hazardous Materials • Discourage new, sensitive land uses, including schools, parks, childcare centers, adult and senior assisted living facilities, and community centers, from being established near identified hazardous material facilities. Discourage or prohibit new hazardous material facilities from locating near sensitive land uses. • Continue to work with solid waste service contractors to educate residents and businesses on the safe disposal of small quantities of hazardous materials. LA River Active Transportation Access (2020) The City Council approved the LA River Active Transportation Access study in 2020, a study that assessed potential corridors and gateways for critical first/last mile connections between transit, the future LA river path, and destinations in the Vernon. The plan evaluated and provided conceptual design for three key east/west corridors, 37th Street, Vernon Avenue, and Leonis/District Boulevard, shown in Figure 1. These corridors were identified as suitable candidates within the 2017 Bicycle Master Plan process for corridor/bikeway connections to improve active transportation use and safety in the City. The LA River Active Transportation Access study provides guidance for accessing funding to develop the three corridors as Metro’s LA River path project comes to completion. .. .. Item 11 Page 57 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 21 Figure 1: LA River Active Transportation Corridors Bicycle Master Plan (2017) The Bicycle Master Plan (Master Plan), developed in 2017, provides a vision to establish a safe, convenient, and effective citywide system that promotes bicycling and walking as safe and viable transportation and recreation opportunities. The Master Plan supports a safer, more enjoyable, and more accessible active transportation network for community members. Barriers to bicycling and walking are addressed in the plan’s strategies, and the plan identifies opportunities, through outreach and improvement projects, to address obstacles to active transportation, improve community health, and reduce emissions related to the transportation sector. LA River Path Feasibility Study (2017) The LA River Path Feasibility Study is intended to develop preliminary pathway alignments and design concepts for a 3-mile segment of the LA River in Vernon. The LA River Path extends from the San Fernando Valley to Long Beach, with only an 8-mile gap from downtown LA to Vernon. This study will also inform the current Metro LA River Bike Path Gap Closure Project, which is designing and constructing the entire 8-mile gap. Creating this path in Vernon will allow for a direct connection to and from Vernon for employees and residents and provide a route for regional path users to pass through Vernon. Westside Specific Plan (in development) The City’s Westside Specific Plan is currently in development with the goal of creating a vision for increasing the City’s residential population, with plans for adding diverse land uses, market-rate housing, retail, restaurants, and open space. The plan will set new zoning and development standards for development in different portions of the west side, and provide an implementation strategy for catalytic projects, infrastructure improvements and financing mechanisms. The Westside Specific Plan envisions projects to improve Vernon’s truck corridor along .. .. Item 11 Page 58 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 22 key roadways (Alameda, Santa Fe, Vernon, and Pacific); creating a walkable and pedestrian friendly environment along Santa Fe, and; redeveloping the Civic Center with a new urban plaza, retail, and approximately 300 residential units. The project is anticipated to increase economic opportunities for new industries and uses, increase community amenities, enhance long-term stability and fiscal standing, and increase resilience to future economic shifts, including natural shocks and climate change (Reimagine Vernon, 2022). The final Westside Specific Plan is expected in Winter 2023. Urban Water Management Plan (2020) The City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP), adopted in 2021, discusses existing and forecasted water demand, supply, and reliability for the community, and provides demand management measures for future water use reductions. Most of Vernon’s geographic area is supplied by the City through groundwater from the Central Groundwater Basin, followed by imported and recycled water purchased from the Central Basin Municipal Water District (CBMWD) (City of Vernon, 2021a). Other suppliers include the California Water Service Company (East Los Angeles District, Commerce System) for water to the northeastern portion of the City, and Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3, for water to the southeastern portion of the City, as shown in Figure 2: Water Service Area below. The City also has access to water from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) for emergency supply. The UWMP notes that climate change or increased emissions will not impact water supply or demand. This is attributed to existing partnerships with the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) and ongoing regulation for industrial activity that is likely to see reductions in emissions (for both stationary and vehicular sources), and the City’s projected growth for industrial/residential uses and employment that is limited, and therefore not a significant concern to increased emissions. The UWMP also provides a drought risk assessment and addresses water shortage contingency planning, and notes the potential for groundwater contamination from industrial sources and materials. The UWMP projects the City’s sources of water supply are sufficient to meet demand through 2045, under normal and dry years, including drought conditions and climate change impacts. The UWMP describes three water conservation strategies to address potential water shortages: Water Conservation Stage 1: The City Council may declare Stage I if a shortage of City water supplies up to 20 percent is determined to be likely, and this phase becomes mandatory is there is a shortage in excess of 20 percent of the normal water supply. At this phase, the City would implement conservation measures that include limits on watering days and obligations to fix leaks, breaks, or malfunctions. Water Conservation Stage 2: The City Council may determine a water supply shortage or threatened shortage and determine consumer demand reduction is necessary. This stage becomes mandatory if there is a water shortage in excess of 30 percent of normal water supplies. Mandatory conservation measures would be implemented, including reduced watering days; quicker response required for fixing leaks, breaks, or malfunctions; limits on filling lakes or ponds (ornamental); limits on vehicle washing; limits on resi dential swimming pools and spas; limits on commercial nurseries, and; water restrictions for customers. Water Conservation Stage 3: This stage is referred as an “Emergency” condition and exists when there is a shortage of more than 50 percent of normal water supplies. At this stage, the City would notify residents and business that a significant portion in consumer demand is necessary and implement mandatory phase 3 .. .. Item 11 Page 59 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 23 conservation measures that include those described in stages 1 and 2, as well as no watering or irrigation; limiting fire hydrant use; and requiring water conservation plans and progress reports from large commercial and industrial customers. Figure 2: Water Service Area Water Conservation Ordinance (2009) The City’s 2009 Ordinance No. 1161 establishes general water conservation and water waste provisions intended to improve water use efficiency, regardless of supply conditions. The provisions set in the ordinance include: limited watering hours and duration of watering; no excessive water flows or runoff; no watering of paved surfaces; obligation to fix leaks; use of recirculated water for water fountains or other decorative water features; limits on water for personal car washes, commercial car wash, and commercial laundry systems; no installation of single pass cooling systems in buildings requesting new water service, and; serving drinking water at establishments upon request (City of Vernon, 2009). Urban Tree Canopy Prioritization (2022) The Urban Tree Canopy project recently completed in September 2022 with a Final Report, developed in partnership with the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (GCCOG), Loyola Marymount University Center for Urban Resilience (LMU CUREs), and TreePeople. The project developed a local tree canopy assessment and community prioritization report with the goal of increasing strategic tree plantings in the community to help mitigate and reduce pollution and extreme heat. Vernon was found to have the lowest amount of tree canopy in LA County, with 2 percent of its land area covered by Existing Tree Canopy, as shown in Figure 3: Existing and Possible Tree Canopy (LMU CURes, 2022). For comparison, LA County was found to have 18 percent average tree canopy cover and the GCCOG was found to have 15 percent average tree canopy cover. The analysis also showed that 47 percent of the City’s land area was deemed “not suitable,” meaning that tree planting cannot occur due to roads, rails, or buildings. The .. .. Item 11 Page 60 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 24 remaining 51 percent of the land area was found to be Possible Tree Canopy, though much of this was identified as “Possible-Impervious”, meaning that some modification of hardscaping may be needed to plant trees in these areas. Of “Possible-Pervious” areas, few locations were identified as highly suitable for plantings. Through this project, community members and City staff identified top priority benefits desired from increased tree plantings, with a majority of participants identifying heat reductions as the highest priority, followed by addressing low tree canopy, improving air quality, and improving pedestrian routes. Power Integrated Resource Plan (2018) Adopted in 2018, the Electric Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) provides the City with a 10-year blueprint for ensuring reliable and environmentally responsible energy provided at affordable rates for Vernon customers. The IRP is developed to comply with SB 32, SB 100, and SB 350 requirements for GHG reductions and renewable energy supply, and sets the VPU towards achieving carbon neutrality by 2045. The IRP also identifies a strategic plan to increase energy efficiency, energy savings, facilitate distributed energy resources (DERs), and support transportation electrification. Renewable energy supply in Vernon is projected to increase, from 31 percent in 2018 to 56 percent in 2030, as shown in Figure 4: Energy Supply for 2018 and 2030 (projected). The IRP’s preferred portfolio supply through 2030 includes mostly solar, followed by wind, geothermal, MGS or other market-based natural gas resource, and energy storage. Additionally, the VPU’s power supply is expected to increase to 61 percent carbon- free in 2026, 71 percent in 2030, and 86 percent in 2037, the end of the IRP planning period. These measures slightly exceed the GHG emission reduction mandates set by SB 100 RPS and SB 32. Figure 3: Existing and Possible Tree Canopy .. .. Item 11 Page 61 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 25 Figure 4: Energy Supply for 2018 and 2030 (projected) Regarding energy storage, the IRP determines a lack of cost-effective options for energy storage systems and recommended no targets for procurement at the time. The VPU committed to continually evaluate the cost - effectiveness of energy storage for utility operations in the future. One potential system, lithium-ion battery energy storage systems, are included in the IRP as a possible, future resource to help replace the capacity provided by MGS post-2028, though cost assumptions for this and other systems will be evaluated in future IRP updates and energy storage evaluation reports. The IRP includes recommended implementation actions to help meet state goals and targets, including: utility- scale resource procurement, MGS replacement, distributed solar, municipal energy efficiency upgrades, light- duty vehicle electrification, and demand response and energy storage. Energy Storage Evaluation Report (2020) Pursuant to AB 2514, the VPU is required to evaluate feasible storage options every three years and determine establishing a goal. The 2020 Energy Storage Evaluation Report determines that battery storage is not appropriate or cost effective for the City at this time, and references the 2018 IRP’s assessment and previous energy storage evaluations of energy usage and supply in the City. The VPU will continue to assess the potential for energy storage system opportunities. Currently, VPU is expected to participate in the Sapphire Project to provide long term Solar and Energy Storage System of renewable energy through the Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA). The three Participating Members include the City of Anaheim Public Utilities (APU), Pasadena Water and Power (PWP) and the City of Vernon Public Utilities (VPU) for the purpose of satisfying the utility's renewable resource goals. Wildfire Mitigation Plan (2022) The VPU developed the Wildfire Mitigation Plan (WMP) in compliance with state requirements (SB 901, AB 1054, and AB 111) to ensure the VPU constructs, maintains, and operates its electrical lines and equipment in a manner that minimizes potential wildfires risks. The WMP recognizes there is low wildfire risk in Vernon due to .. .. Item 11 Page 62 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 26 sparse vegetation and fuel sources, and the City is outside of High Fire Threat areas and Wildfire hazard areas, as designated by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE). The nearest wildland-urban interface is more than 10 miles from Vernon (VPU, 2022). As such, the WMP does not include wildfire preventative strategies. Sustainability Initiatives/Activities Green Vernon Commission The Green Vernon Commission (GVC) was established in November 2011 as the Sustainable Development and Energy Efficiency Commission and renamed Green Vernon Commission in May 2014. The GVC consists of seven members, including three representatives for Vernon’s business community, two labor representatives; and two environmental representatives (one of which must be from the environmental-justice community). Members serve four-year terms and meet quarterly to conduct periodic reviews of the Sustainability Action Plan for the City operations and activities and also serves as a forum for addressing the public's concerns related to sustainability and energy efficiency issues. Recent initiatives presented at the GVC include the VPU’s Electrification Strategic Plan, the construction of a City park, and the recommendation for the City to adopt the Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction Ordinance. Vernon Public Utilities Rebates and Incentives The VPU offers several programs with rebates and incentives to Vernon customers to increase energy efficiency, cost savings, and renewable energy use. Incentive plans are funded by public benefit funds and Cap-and-Trade. Public Benefits Program: The VPU offers cash incentives for lighting technologies, and energy efficiency equipment upgrades that include variable speed drives, air compressors, motors, refrigeration, chiller replacement, air conditioner replacement, and building envelope. It also includes energy management systems and other load and energy controlling devices. The VPU also offers free comprehensive energy audits to VPU customers, along with suggestions for improving energy efficiency. Solar Energy & Net Metering Program: The VPU offers assistance for implementation of solar/photovoltaic energy systems to residential and commercial customers to help offset electricity demand, and offers rebates for eligible buildings. Natural Gas Rebate Program: The VPU promotes projects that help reduce natural gas consumption and GHG emissions. Funded by GHG allowances (cap-and-trade auctions), this program offers rebates for pipe insulation, tank insulation, process boilers, steam traps, and other eligible equipment replacement. VPU also offers rebates for electric vehicle (EV) purchases or EV charging installations. Waste Management The City hosts periodic electronic waste (“e-waste”) recycling events for businesses and residents to properly dispose of electronics, including computers, televisions, batteries, fluorescents, ink cartridges, and other materials that cannot be sent to landfills. .. .. Item 11 Page 63 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 27 American Public Power Association Recognition As of 2022, the VPU is recognized by the American Public Power Association (APPA) with a Diamond Level designation, the highest level, of Reliable Public Power Provider (RP3) for its provision of reliable and safe electric service. The RP3 distinction recognizes proficiency in reliability, safety, workforce development, and system improvements. This designation is held by public utilities over three years. Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee The Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee consists of 7 members, including one person representing members of the California Legislature, four persons that reside or work in the Vernon area, one Business Representative, and one current Council Member. This committee provides grants to charitable and governmental entities for projects and programs that benefit those residing and working in Vernon. Regional Los Angeles County OurCounty, Sustainability Plan (2019) The Board of Supervisors adopted the OurCounty Plan on August 6, 2019, a regional sustainability plan for Los Angeles County. It outlines what local governments and stakeholders can do to enhance the well-being of every community while reducing damage to the natural environment and adapting to the changing climate. The plan mainly focuses on communities that have been historically disadvantaged and disproportionately burdened by environmental pollution. The plan is organized around 12 major themes that contribute to a shared vision for sustainability in the County: Goal 1: Resilient and healthy community environments where residents thrive in place; Goal 2: Buildings and infrastructure that support human health and resilience; Goal 3: Equitable and sustainable land use and development without displacement; Goal 4: A prosperous LA County that provides opportunities for all residents and businesses and supports the transition to a green economy; Goal 5: Thriving ecosystems, habitats, and biodiversity; Goal 6: Accessible parks, beaches, recreational waters, public lands, and public spaces that create opportunities for respite, recreation, ecological discovery, and cultural activities; Goal 7: A fossil fuel-free LA County; Goal 8: A convenient, safe, clean, and affordable transportation system that enhances mobility and quality of life while reducing car dependency; Goal 9: Sustainable production and consumption of resources; Goal 10: A sustainable and just food system that enhances access to affordable, local, and healthy food; Goal 11: Inclusive, transparent, and accountable governance that facilitates participation in sustainability efforts, especially by disempowered communities, and; Goal 12: A commitment to realize OurCounty sustainability goals through creative, equitable, and coordinated funding and partnerships (LA County, 2019). The plan also addresses environmental justice and historically disadvantaged communities who often bear disproportionate burden from environmental pollution. OurCounty envisions a healthier environment with cleaner air, water, soil, and renewable energy sources; affordable housing; accessible and diverse transportation network; and an expanded urban forest. .. .. Item 11 Page 64 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 28 2015 Community GHG Inventory The County and Buro Happold developed 2015 community GHG inventories as part of the OurCounty Sustainability Plan for the unincorporated county and incorporated cities, including Vernon. These inventories capture emissions from various sectors: energy; transportation; waste; industrial processes and product use (IPPU), and; agriculture, forestry, and other land uses (AFOLU). The County’s 2015 inventory shows that GHG emissions in Vernon totaled 753,107 metric tons CO2 equivalent. The majority of the community’s emissions were attributed to the energy sector (66 percent), followed by transportation (22 percent), waste (10 percent) and IPPU (2 percent). Agriculture, forestry, and other land uses accounted for less than 1 percent of the total emissions. Climate Vulnerability Assessment (2021) Published in October 2021, the LA countywide Climate Vulnerability Assessment (CVA) studies both the social and physical vulnerabilities to climate hazards such as extreme heat, wildfire, and flooding as they are projected to become more severe in the coming decades. Equity implications are highlighted as climate vulnerabilities range across different communities and sub-populations within the county. The assessment explains that some people are at a greater risk of negative impacts due to structural inequities, along with other factors. The CVA used qualitative and quantitative methods to create a combined approach that highlights the voices, stories, and experiences of frequently excluded and highly vulnerable groups. LA River Master Plan The LA River Master Plan is an update of the LA County 1996 LA River Master Plan. The LA River Master Plan is centered around the understanding that infrastructure planning cannot be isolated from social and environmental needs. Therefore, the Plan seeks to build on prior and current planning efforts to reimagine the LA River from a single-use corridor to a multi-benefit resource for the communities of LA County. It recognizes the need for resilient systems that address climate change, population growth, resource scarcity, and social inequity. These resilient systems are necessary to create 51 miles of connected, open space that supports clean water, native habitat, parks, recreation, multi-use trails, art, and cultural resources while also managing flood risk. The LA River Master Plan aims to make the reimagined river a reality over the next two and a half decades. Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) is the regional planning agency for Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties. It serves as a forum for regional issues relating to transportation, the economy, community development, and the environment. Connect SoCal, adopted in 2020, is SCAG’s latest RTP/SCS, a long-range visioning plan that balances future mobility and housing needs with economic, environmental, and public health goals Regional Climate Adaptation Framework (2020) SCAG prepared a comprehensive framework for climate adaptation planning, to assist the SCAG region with planning and preparation for the impacts of climate-related hazards, as well as addressing social and physical vulnerabilities and helping jurisdictions comply with Senate Bill 379. The Framework provides an analysis of climate change impacts and projections, and outlines a general process of adaptation planning that can be applied by local jurisdictions, including tools, maps, and model adaptation policies and strategies. Data provided in the .. .. Item 11 Page 65 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 29 Framework can help inform climate change and vulnerability considerations for sustainability strategies around extreme heat, severe storms, flooding, drought, regional wildfires, air quality and vector borne diseases. Connect SoCal; Regional Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) (2020) Connect SoCal builds upon and expands land use and transportation strategies established over several planning cycles to increase mobility options and achieve a more sustainable growth pattern. It charts a path toward a more mobile, sustainable, and prosperous region by making connections between transportation networks, planning strategies, and the people whose collaboration can improve the quality of life in the SCAG region. The RTP/SCS does not mandate future land use policies for local jurisdictions; rather, it provides a foundation of the regional policy upon which local governments can build. Local jurisdictions, including the City, partner with SCAG and are active members in the development and implementation of the RTP/SCS. LA County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) Blue Line First/Last Mile (FLM) Plan The Metro Blue Line First/Last Mile Plan conducted existing conditions, community engagement, walk audits, and the development of station area improvements that facilitate active transportation access to all 22 Blue Line Stations. The process included implementation of Metro's First/Last Mile Plan process through development of the pathway network that included coordination with City staff, community-based organizations, and Metro staff to identify locally supported projects that enhance access, comfort, and safety for Blue Line patrons. The plan calls for improvement such as improved crosswalks, lighting, bus stop enhancements to provide shelter/shade, landscaping, and pick-up/drop-off locations. Implementation is dependent upon funding and local jurisdictions and the plan has been used by several agencies to obtain state funding to install plan improvements. The LA River Path Project The LA River Path Project will provide a new active transportation path from north of downtown Los Angeles (Elysian Valley) to the City of Maywood, filling an eight-mile gap and improving pedestrian and bikeway travel along the river path. When complete, the project would connect communities along the LA River, a 32-mile grade-separated corridor from the San Fernando Valley to the City of Long Beach. Approximately 85,000 people live within walking distance of the river and one million live within biking distance; the project will provide a safe and comfortable option for all trips, including for people who commute to nearby jurisdictions such as Vernon (Metro, 2019). The project is currently in the environmental review phase, with a draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) anticipated in the spring of 2023. Rail to River Active Transportation Corridor (ATC) Project Metro’s Rail to River ATC Project is planning for a bicycle and pedestrian corridor connecting the Metro A Line (Blue) Slauson Station and the LA River path (refer to Figure 1). The project would provide a safe, comfortable, and continuous active transportation route that improves mobility and connectivity for local communities, and helps to reduce VMT. Recent studies determined the project could not be accommodated where planned, along Randolph Street, due to conflicts with the West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor. Metro is conducting an alternatives study to evaluate solutions that can accommodate both projects. .. .. Item 11 Page 66 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 30 West Santa Ana Branch (WSAB) Transit Corridor The WSAB project will connect downtown LA to southeast LA communities through the City of Artesia along a proposed 19-mile light rail transit line, shown in Figure 5. The new line would be immediately adjacent to Vernon and connect to nearby communities of Huntington Park, Bell, downtown Los Angeles, unincorporated Florence-Firestone, and other communities in southeast LA. The new line would also provide transfers to the Metro A Line (Blue), Metro C Line (Green), and LA County regional transit. The project is currently in the environmental review process, expected to be completed in 2023. Figure 5: WSAB Transit Corridor .. .. Item 11 Page 67 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 31 Gateway Cities Council of Governments The GCCOG is a joint-powers authority comprised of 27 cities in southeast Los Angeles, including the City of Vernon. The GCCOG convenes various regional committees and working groups with voluntary participation by member cities to address for regional air quality and climate action, economic development, housing and homelessness, and transportation; these include the Energy Working Group, Planning Directors Committee, Public Works Officers, Economic Development Working Group, and Transportation Committee, among others). Climate Action Planning (CAP) Framework In 2018, the Gateway Cities COG completed the regional CAP Framework to support cities in preparing local CAPs. The CAP Framework helps individual communities advance their goals for economic development, public health, air quality, climate resiliency, equity, and job creation while reducing emissions and planning for the impacts of climate change. It includes 2010 GHG inventories and forecasts for the GCCOG member cities, as well as a set of tools and templates for setting GHG targets, selecting and prioritizing GHG reduction and adaptation measures, assembling a CAP document, and tracking implementation. The CAP Framework establishes air quality, public health, economic development, and GHG reduction as synergistic planning goals, and aligns CAP strategies with emerging economic opportunities in renewable energy, energy efficiency, low- carbon transportation, and renewable materials. 2010 Community GHG Inventory As a participant in the Gateway Cities CAP Framework project, the City has an existing 2010 communitywide GHG inventory that can serve as a baseline for planning purposes. This inventory revealed on-road transportation as the largest contributor of GHG emissions in the community (52 percent), followed by energy (31 percent), solid waste (7 percent), water (5 percent), short-lived climate pollutants (3 percent), off-road transportation (2 percent), and wastewater (1 percent) (GCCOG, 2018). Strategic Transportation Plan The Strategic Transportation Plan (STP) aims to create an integrated transportation system for the 27 cities in the Gateway Cities Subregion. The STP brings together all elements of the transportation system in the Gateway Cities such as freeways, arterial highways, transit, and bikeways, into a unified vision. For many years, cities planned their roads independently. However, one city’s transportation improvements can negatively impact the surrounding cities. It highlights the importance of an integrated transportation system as it enables individual cities to understand how they fit within the larger region. The STP also evaluates air quality impacts, and stormwater treatment strategies, and presents preliminary freeway and arterial road designs for future consideration. Central Basin Municipal Water District (CBMWD), Urban Water Management Plan (2020) The CBMWD is a wholesale agency that provides imported and recycled water to almost 2 million people within southeast Los Angeles County, across 24 cities and several unincorporated areas. CBMWD imports water from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD), sourced from the State Water Project and the Colorado River Aqueduct, and supplies recycled water from the County’s Sanitation District’s treated wastewater, purchased from the San Jose Creek Water Reclamation Plant in the City of Whittier and the Los Coyotes Water Reclamation Plant in the City of Cerritos (CBMWD, 2020). The CBWD’s UWMP projects demand for recycled water use to increase .. .. Item 11 Page 68 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 32 steadily for municipal and industrial uses through 2045, especially with increasing costs around imported water. The CBMWD identifies capital improvement projects for expanding the recycled water system, which are needed to address infrastructure challenges for increased use of recycled water. Currently, there are no CBMWD projects planned that would expand recycled water use in Vernon. The CBMWD’s UWMP identifies climate change impacts of concern to the water system from extreme temperatures, precipitation pattern changes, sea level rise, and wildfires, including: reduced snowpack as water storage; reduced soil humidity and threatened soil permeability; reduced groundwater and downstream flows; increased flooding, storm surges, and runoff; threats to water quality due to flooding, runoff, dissolved oxygen levels, increased algal blooms and increased salinity concentrations; changes in vegetation cover; erosion; reduced potential of hydropower generation; changes to natural resources (sand, tide pools, wetlands); reduced availability of imported water deliveries, and; greater irrigation demands. The CBMWD UWMP also provides water conservation strategies that include policies and programs regarding water waste prohibition, drought response planning, metering, conservation pricing, public education and outreach, residential/commercial/industrial/institutional programs and rebates, and landscape programs. There are also identified water shortage response actions during periods of severe drought or exceptional supply interruptions. During these periods, the CBMWD would implement water reductions based on the MWD’s regional efforts that include calls for water use reductions and greater use of storage reservoirs. South Coast Air Quality Management District The South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) is the regional, regulatory agency responsible for improving air quality in Southern California. Its jurisdiction includes the counties of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino. AQMD works to reduce emissions mainly from stationary sources, including power plants, refineries, and gas stations. Rule 415 The AQMD adopted Rule 415 in 2017 to reduce odors from rendering facilities by requiring emission controls and best management practices for mitigating odors, and also required facilities to post signs with information to the public for making odor complaints. Rule 415 also requires rendering facilities to submit permit applications for installing permanent, total enclosures that seal processing areas to minimize leaks and odors. There are five rendering facilities in the City, shown in Figure 6: Baker Commodities Inc.; Coast Packing Co.; Darling Ingredients Inc.; Legacy By-Products LLC (formerly D&D Disposal Inc. dba West Coast Rendering Co.), and; Smithfield Packaged Meats Corp (formerly Clougherty Packing LLC dba Farmer John). Four of the five (Coast, Darling, Legacy, and Smithfield) are implementing measures to be in compliance with Rule 415, however, the AQMD recently found Baker has failed to meet Rule 415 and has taken enforcement action due to permit and odor violations (AQMD, 2022a). .. .. Item 11 Page 69 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 33 Figure 6: Vernon Rendering Facilities The City of Vernon does not oversee rendering facility compliance with Rule 415, however the City works with the AQMD to remain informed of rendering facility compliance and enforcement activities, and seeks to increase educational outreach of AQMD’s role in regard to enforcement activities. Additionally, the City is considering measures to help mitigate the impacts of rendering facilities within Vernon, including: • Plans to enact a moratorium on new rendering facility development in the City; • Working to modify City zoning to enable City Council to approve on a case-by-case basis new developments or operations that may impact quality of life in the region (including operations that emit excessive odors, noise, etc.); • Working to coordinate Vernon Health & Environmental Control Department inspections that are aligned with requirements of Rule 415 and incorporate appropriate restrictions, and; • Plans to propose increased fines at the local level for rendering facilities that are not in compliance with Rule 415 (City of Vernon, 2022c). Assembly Bill 617 The AQMD is implementing programs under AB 617 Community Air Monitoring for environmental justice communities, three of which are near the City of Vernon (South LA, Southeast LA, and East LA/Boyle Heights/West Commerce). AQMD is conducting air monitoring and implementing emission reduction plans in these communities to help reduce levels criteria pollutants and toxic air contaminants, mainly from nitrogen oxides (NOx) and diesel PM, respectively. The communities have set emission reduction targets for the next decade for both NOx and diesel PM. The communities of Southeast LA and East LA/Boyle Heights/West Commerce both identified pollution sources in Vernon as a concern to local air quality, particularly from trucks and freeways, railyards, metal processing, and rendering facilities. The Community Emissions Reductions Plans for both communities include several actions for the AQMD to implement that involve businesses and activities in Vernon, including to: conduct air monitoring near railyards, metal processing facilities, and rendering facilities; conduct facility inspections (rendering facilities) to evaluate compliance with Rule 415 and follow up with enforcement as necessary; provide trainings, best management practices, and pursue incentives for reducing emissions from metal processing; support transitions to zero-emission trucks; support enforcement for truck .. .. Item 11 Page 70 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 34 idling; and engage in public outreach and engagement for increasing community awareness of emissions (AQMD, 2022b). AB 617 does not include the City of Vernon in its programs, however, because air quality and pollution is a regional issue, the AQMD expects local activities for air quality improvements in Southeast LA, South LA, and East LA/Boyle Heights/West Commerce will benefit other, nearby jurisdictions, including Vernon. State Cap-and-Trade Launched in 2013, California's cap-and-trade program is the nation's first economy-wide GHG emissions market. The program sets a limit on GHG emissions from power plants and other large industrial facilities that decline over time. Covered entities are issued annual emissions allowances, which can be bought and sold by companies depending on their needs. This effectively sets a price on carbon and creates an incentive for industries and businesses to reduce their emissions more efficiently. Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32 and SB 32) and California Climate Crisis Act (AB 1279) AB 32 directs the state to reduce statewide GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, while SB 32 deepens that commitment to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. To achieve these reductions, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the state Office of Planning and Research recommend that local governments develop community-wide targets that are consistent with these statewide targets. Assembly Bill 1279, approved in September 2022, requires GHG emissions to be reduced to 85 percent below 1990 levels by 2045 to achieve state goals towards carbon neutrality. Senate Bill 350 Clean Energy and Pollution Reduction Act SB 350 seeks to increase use of solar, wind, geothermal and other renewable energy sources by expanding the state’s renewable electricity procurement goal to 50 percent by 2030 (from a previous 33 percent by 2020). The bill also establishes targets similar to SB 32, for reducing GHG emissions to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 and to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. To implement SB 350, large utilities are required to develop integrated resource plans that describe how utilities plan to meet customer resource needs, reduce GHG emissions, and increase clean energy use. Senate Bill 100 Signed in 2018, Senate Bill 100 expands and accelerates the standards set by SB 350 by establishing a 100 percent clean, zero carbon, and renewable energy policy for the state’s electricity system by 2045, with mandatory renewable energy targets. It requires the state’s Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) to supply 50 percent of retail energy sales from renewable resources by 2026, and 60 percent by 2030. SB 100 directs the state to achieve carbon neutrality by 2045 and net negative emissions thereafter. .. .. Item 11 Page 71 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 35 Senate Bill 379 California SB 379 requires each city and county to address climate change by integrating climate adaptation and resiliency strategies in the safety element of its general plan and/or in its local hazard mitigation plan. The strategies in the updated plan must be based on a vulnerability assessment specific to the local geography. Executive Order B-55-18 Executive Order B-55-18, signed by the Governor of California on September 2018, calls for the state to achieve carbon neutrality by 2045, exceeding the previous 2005 target of an 80 percent reduction from 1990 levels by 2050 (Executive Order S-3-05). California Air Resources Board (CARB) is tasked with leading the statewide planning effort to achieve these longer-term goals. CARB is updating the current Climate Change Scoping Plan to assess progress towards achieving the SB 32 2030 target and lay out a path for the State of California to achieve carbon neutrality before the mid-century. Sustainable Communities and Climate Protection Act (SB 375) The Sustainable Communities and Climate Protection Act of 2008 (SB 375) supports the State's climate goals by helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions through coordinated transportation, housing, and land use planning. SB 375 targets greenhouse gas emissions from passenger vehicles as it instructs CARB to set regional reduction targets for passenger vehicles. It is the nation's first legislation to link transportation and land use planning with global warming. Senate Bill 743 for reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMT) SB 743 took effect on July 1, 2020, and works with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to reduce pollution by prioritizing development and transportation projects that will decrease the use of individual cars. SB 743 aims to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the number of vehicle miles traveled (VMT). CA Vehicle Emissions Regulations California’s Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Strategy (SB 1383) SB 1383, signed on September 2016, set methane emissions reduction targets for California in a statewide effort to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCP). It focuses on the elimination of methane gas created by organic materials in landfills and requires that clean streams of organic material be collected, recovered, and recycled into new end-products like compost or biofuel. One of the targets aims to reduce 75 percent of organic waste disposal by 2025. California’s water efficiency mandates (Assembly Bill 1668 and Senate Bill 606) California Assembly Bill 1668 was enacted with a contingency on the passage of Senate Bill 606. Both address water conservation and drought resilience across the state and were adopted in response to Governor Brown’s Executive Order B-37-16 - “Making Water Conservation a California Way of Life,” which directs permanent changes to use water more wisely, eliminate water waste, strengthen local drought resistance, and improve agricultural water use efficiency and drought planning. .. .. Item 11 Page 72 of 81 Existing Conditions Report 36 AB 1668 requires the State Water Resources Control Board (Board), in coordination with the Department of Water Resources (DWR), to adopt water efficiency standards and regulations, drought and water shortage contingency plan guidance, specified criteria for per capita daily indoor residential water use, and performance measures for commercial, industrial, and institutional water use. Starting in 2027, local water suppliers will be penalized for violating these standards. For example, a local water supplier’s failure to comply with the Board’s adopted long-term standards could result in fines of $1,000 per day during non-drought years and $10,000 per day during declared drought emergencies and specific dry years. California Adaptation Planning Guide The California Adaptation Planning Guide (California APG) was recently updated in 2020 by the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) to provide guidance to agencies and communities to engage in adaptation and resilience planning. It reflects the latest best practices, integrates recent State initiatives, and ensures the best available science and information. It includes a four-phase process, replicated in SCAG’s Regional Climate Adaptation Framework. The process provides step-by-step guidance for developing climate vulnerability assessments and adaptation strategies tailored to local jurisdictions, as well as integrating adaptation and resilience efforts with local policies and programs. The California APG also provides examples of real, local climate adaptation strategies by sector, including extreme heat, flooding, drought, wildfire and pollution, and pests and diseases. California Green Building Code The California Green Building Standards Code (CBSC), known as CALGreen, is the first-in-the-nation mandatory green building standards code. CALGreen aims to improve public health, safety, and general welfare through enhanced design and construction of buildings using concepts that reduce negative impacts while promoting positive environmental impacts and encouraging sustainable construction practices. CBSC has the authority to enforce CALGreen standards for nonresidential structures that include new buildings or portions of new buildings, additions, and alterations, and all occupancies where no other state agency has the authority to adopt green building standards applicable to those occupancies. CARB’s Climate Change Scoping Plan Update (currently being updated) The 2022 Scoping Plan Update currently in process will identify a cost-effective, equitable, and feasible path towards achieving carbon neutrality by 2045 or earlier while assessing progress towards achieving target GHG emissions reductions, as directed by SB 32, AB 1279, and the previous 2017 Scoping Plan. This Scoping Plan Update will address carbon neutrality for the first time, focusing on strategies for expanding clean energy options, improving air quality, reducing fossil-fuel dependency, increasing clean sector jobs, and supporting economic growth. The plan update will also address environmental justice, equity, and public health priorities. The Draft Plan is publicly available and undergoing environmental analysis. .. ..

Item 11 Page 81 of 81 City Council Agenda Report Meeting Date:February 6, 2024 From:Zaynah Moussa, City Attorney Department:City Attorney Submitted by:Eva Muro, Legal Analyst Subject Best Practices for Ballot Measure and Campaign Activities for Local Government Officials Recommendation Receive overview of permissible and prohibited uses of public resources for campaign purposes. Background A General Municipal Election will be held on Tuesday, April 9, 2024, for the election of one member of the City Council and to submit a ballot measure to the voters to establish a transient occupancy tax. In light of the upcoming election and in an effort to ensure legal compliance and best practices through regular City training sessions, the City Attorney’s Office will present a brief overview of campaign “do’s and don’ts” for local government officials and employees. Ballot measures are proposed pieces of legislation that are either approved or rejected by voters rather than a legislative body. State law regulates the actions public agencies and officials can take regarding ballot measures and campaign activities. The key rule is that public resources may not be used for campaign activities but may be used for informational activities. The distinction is that campaign activities supporting or opposing a ballot measure are prohibited, while informational activities providing objective facts or context are permissible. Before taking any action on a campaign issue, we should ask ourselves whether the communication or activity is “express advocacy” (prohibited) or “impartial information” (permissible). Ballot Measure Communications California case law recognizes that public officials have free speech rights that they are entitled to exercise in their individual capacities, while voters are entitled to a fair election process that is free of undue influence. Cf. Fort v. Civil Service Com. (1964) 61 Cal.2d 331, 334; Stanson v. Mott (1976) 17 Cal.3d 206, 209 (noting that the use of public funds in election campaign can lead to an “improper distortion of the democratic electoral process”). Restrictions on campaign-related activities also depend on timing, whether the communication is made before or after the election is officially called. Generally, individual Councilmembers have free speech rights and are not legally restricted in expressing their positions on a proposed measure in their individual capacities. They should, however, refrain from making comments or taking a position that indicates prejudgment or bias before voting on whether to adopt a proposed measure or to place it on the ballot. After a measure is placed on the ballot, California law restricts the use of public funds for campaign-related activities unless it is clearly authorized by law. The City Council as a whole is authorized to take a position on a ballot measure, enact resolutions endorsing or opposing the measure, and may submit ballot arguments for or against the measure. However, other than official actions permitted by law or informational activities, the City and its officials may not use public funds to campaign for or against the ballot measure or .. .. Item 12 Page 1 of 3 communicate in a manner that indicates express advocacy for a specific position. Such misuse of public resources may result in potential criminal or civil penalties and is an area of focus for enforcement by the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC). Individual Councilmembers may still advocate their personal views after the measure is placed on the ballot, but should identify that they are acting in a personal capacity and must refrain from such advocacy on City time or by using City resources. Examples of permissible ballot measure communications include: •A City may use public resources to draft and propose a proposed ballot measure. •A City may spend public funds to research potential provisions of a ballot measure and take the procedural steps necessary to get it on the ballot with the use of public funds, including holding public study sessions. •Factual responses to a request for information. •Presentation of the City’s view on the ballot measure in an open meeting. •Posting reports prepared by City departments analyzing the effect of the ballot measure. •Pamphlets urging voters to vote without expressing how they should vote. •Councilmembers and the City Council as a whole may announce their position on a measure at a public meeting or within the agenda or hearing minutes prepared for the meeting. •An agency may use public resources to prepare a written argument filed by the agency for publishing in the voter information pamphlet. •Any City department may present a departmental view presented by an agency employee upon request by a public or private organization, at a meeting of the organization. •Individual employees and Council members may work on the campaign, including attending campaign events, campaign appearances, and campaign fundraisers, during their personal time. Their personal time includes lunch hours, coffee breaks, vacation days, and their time before or after work. Examples of impermissible campaign activities or communications include: •Advocating their position on a measure during official duties, on City time, or in City uniform. •Public funds may not be used to fund signature gathering to qualify a measure for the ballot. •Funding advertising-related items such as bumper stickers, posters, floats, television and radio spots that advocate a position. •Funding campaign literature prepared by private proponents or opponents of the ballot measure. •Funding express messages advocating a position for a measure. •Officials may not promise to provide any person with a gift, money, promotion, job, or other forms of compensation in return for a contribution or vote. Endorsement of Ballot Measures and Council Candidates Officials may give endorsements of their choosing on a personal level and may include their public official title in such endorsements. CA FPPC Adv. Letter I-00-216. This applies both to endorsement of a Council candidate or ballot measure. However, they may not use any City resources to advocate or endorse measures or candidates, which includes using public funds to purchase a ticket to a campaign event or fundraiser. Officials may donate to the campaign of a .. .. Item 12 Page 2 of 3 Council candidate in the manner allowed by Government Code Sections 85301 and 85702.5. Any endorsement by an individual Councilmember cannot suggest that they are representing the City Council as a whole or be filmed, written, or funded using public funds.
