CA AB1777

Authorizes the State Air Resources Board (CARB) to adopt regulations to reduce or mitigate emissions from indirect sources of pollution when necessary to achieve federal ambient air quality standards

Defines "indirect source" by reference to federal law (42 U.S.C. Section 7410(a)(5)(C)), which includes facilities that attract or generate mobile source activity, such as parking lots, shopping centers, and warehouses

Declares the new authority is "declaratory of, and does not constitute a change in, existing law," asserting CARB already possesses this regulatory power

Creates potential misdemeanor liability for violations of any resulting CARB regulations regarding nonvehicular sources subject to these rules

Requires no state reimbursement to local agencies because costs stem solely from creation of new criminal violations
