State Air Resources Board: regulatory authority: revocation.

California SB474 aimed to change the rules regarding the State Air Resources Board's regulatory authority, specifically focusing on how it could revoke certain regulations. The bill proposed amendments to existing laws to clarify and potentially limit the Board's powers. However, the bill did not pass in the legislature.

Supporters of SB474 argued that the bill was necessary to ensure that the State Air Resources Board operates with accountability and transparency. They believed that revoking excessive regulatory authority would foster a more balanced approach to environmental regulations, ultimately benefiting both the economy and the environment.

Critics of SB474 contended that the bill would undermine California's efforts to combat air pollution and climate change. They argued that limiting the regulatory powers of the State Air Resources Board could lead to weaker environmental protections and harm public health.
