SUMMARY:Closing the Environmental Justice Gap: A Workshop on Advancing Evaluation Methods
DESCRIPTION:Program evaluation methods have improved the design and effectiveness of a wide range of public policies.  Yet despite the adoption of new types of EJ programs\, there are relatively few applications of these evaluation methods to improve this first generation of EJ programs.  This event will bring together leaders from across the country to 1) examine the current state of EJ programs\, 2) assess the current state of EJ program evaluation\, and 3) explore strategies to further develop the sub-field of EJ program evaluation. This event is co-sponsored by the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Research and Development National Center for Environmental Research. The USC Program for Environmental and Regional Equity also provided financial support and guidance. Other partners include scholars from the UC Berkeley Department of Environmental Science\, Policy and Management\, the UC Berkeley School of Public Health\, and the Metropolitan Futures Initiative in the UC Irvine School of Social Ecology.PROGRAM:8:00 a.m. Check-In and Breakfast\, Room 306\n8:30 a.m. Introductory Remarks\, Room 314Welcome: J.R. DESHAZO\, Director\, UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation8:45 a.m. Panel 1: Background on EJ Policies and ProgramsFocus: This first panel will address the overall landscape of EJ programs and policies. Knowing the breadth and depth of EJ policies and programs is important to develop evaluation strategies\, as different types of EJ programs and policies will require different types of evaluation strategies. The panel will discuss the following questions and then open up to group discussion:• What is the definition of an EJ policy/program? What are considered EJ policies and programs?• What policies and program are not explicitly EJ but have EJ consequences?• What is the landscape of EJ policies and programs at a national\, state\, and local level?• Where are the programs and policies concentrated and under what categories?• How are EJ areas defined in these programs and policies? What are examples of differences in definition?\nModerator & Framer: RACHEL MORELLO-FROSH\, Associate Professor of Public Health and Environmental Science\, Policy & Manage\, UC BerkeleyPanelist: DEVON PAYNE-STURGES\, Assistant Center Director for Human Health ORD/ National Center for Environmental Research of the US Environmental Protection AgencyPanelist: ROMEL PASCUAL\, Deputy Mayor of Environment\, Los Angeles Mayor’s OfficePanelist: VERNICE MILLER-TRAVIS\, Member of the National Environmental Justice Advisory Council\, Vice Chair of the Maryland State Commission on Environmental Justice and Sustainable Communities\, and Co-Founder of WE ACT for Environmental JusticePanelist: ROBERT VERCHICK\, Chair in Environmental Law at Loyola University New Orleans\n10:15 a.m. Comfort Break\n10:30 a.m. Panel 2: Evaluation of EJ Policies and ProgramsFocus: This panel will explore the current state of EJ program and policy evaluation and firstgeneration tools\, with specific examples of completed evaluation. Panelists will respond to the following questions and then open to group discussion:• What role can evaluation research play in making EJ policies and programs more effective?• What is the state of EJ program and policy evaluation?• What are examples of EJ program and policy evaluation?• Where are the gaps in effectiveness of evaluation and how might we prioritize filling these gaps?\nModerator: DOUG HOUSTON\, Assistant Professor of Planning\, Policy & Design\, UC IrvinePanelist: KATHERINE DAWES\, Director\, Evaluation Support Division in the EPA Office of PolicyPanelist: PAUL ONG\, Professor of Urban Planning and Asian Studies in the UCLA Luskin School of Public AffairsPanelist: SHALINI VAJIHALA\, Deputy Assistant Administrator of the EPA Office of International and Tribal AffairsPanelist: PAUL MOHAI\, Professor in the School of Natural Resources and Environment at the University of Michigan\n12:00 p.m Lunch\n12:45 p.m.  Panel 3: Foundation and Government PerspectiveFocus: A panel of foundation and government agency representatives will reflect on how evaluation can strengthen program design and implementation. The panel will give an overview of what they are investing in and how these priorities are shaped.Moderator: MANUEL PASTOR\, Professor of American Studies and Ethnicity at the University of Southern California and Director of the USC Program for Environmental and Regional EquityPanelist: CHARLES LEE\, Deputy Associate Administrator for Environmental Justice at the U.S. EPAPanelist: RAMTIN ARABLOUEI\, Program Manager for Environmental Health and Environmental Justice at the Health and Environmental Funders NetworkPanelist: ERIN ROGERS\, Environment Program Officer for the William and Flora Hewlett FoundationPanelist: MICHELE PRICHARD\, Director\, Common Agenda at Liberty Hill\n1:30 p.m. Panel 4: Best Practices for EJ Program DesignFocus: Given major categories of EJ programs discussed in Panel 1\, panelists will discuss four example EJ programs representative of these categories. We will explore how to best evaluate the effectiveness of these programs\, recognizing that EJ programs may take a wide range of institutional forms\, and that these programs are often embedded in complex policy processes.Moderator: J.R. DESHAZO\, Professor of Public Policy and Director of the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation.Panelist: ADRIANO MARTINEZ\, Environmental Justice Project Attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council\, to discuss the Harbor Community Mitigation Fund at the Port of Los Angeles as an example of EJ programs that reduce pollution and/or mitigate disproportionate impacts.Panelist: MARVA KING\, EPA CARE Program Co-Chair\, to discuss the EPA’s CARE program\, an example of a community capacity building program.Panelist: NURY MARTINEZ\, Executive Director of Pacoima Beautiful\, to give a community perspective on the CARE program.Panelist: ZOE HELLER\, Environmental Protection Specialist with EPA Region 9\, to describe the Los Angeles Area Environmental Enforcement Collaborative\, an example enforcement program.Panelist: GEORGE ALEXEEFF\, Acting Director of the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment\, Cal/EPA\, to discuss OEHHA’s development of a screening methodology to assess cumulative impacts.3:00 p.m. Break-Out Groups: Development of a Research AgendaFocus: Building off the preceding panel\, participates will organize into break-out groups\, one per example program described in Panel 4. Participants will discuss considerations\, challenges\, and ideal approaches and methods to evaluate an example EJ program. The facilitator will give participants the opportunity to address the following types of questions:• Why it is important to evaluate this type of program?• What are the challenges in doing so?• What should be the key goals of the evaluation?• Is there an outcome or series of outcomes in a model of causuality that should be addressed in the evaluation?• What is an ideal framework and approach to evaluate this program?• What data is needed and who has it?• What key steps would be involved?\n4:15 p.m. Report Out from Break-Out Groups\n4:45 p.m. Closing RemarksKeynote: LISA GARCIA\, Senior Advisor to the Administrator for Environmental Justice\, U.S. Environmental Protection AgencySynthesis: MANUEL PASTOR\, USC Program on Environment and Regional Equity\n5:00 p.m. Reception\n6:00 p.m. Adjourn

SUMMARY:Local Energy Generation Resources: A Working Conference (July 25-26)
DESCRIPTION:This two day conference will address the issue of designing and implementing a local system of renewable energy production in California.Governor Jerry Brown has called for 12\,000 MW of renewable power generated within the local power distribution grid.   Implementing this effort will offer important advantages in California’s drive for clean power – development of local resources\, avoided costs of new intercity transmission or remote generation\, and additional consumer autonomy. But taking this goal to the level envisioned by the Governor calls for new approaches and new coalitions between consumers\, community leaders\, utilities and power providers.   Some of the challenges include:• financing tools that help build new power sources\, but also keep costs as low as possible.• improvements to existing wires and transformers\, and new policies to speed connections • policies and techniques to measure and manage power demand and variable power sources • new efforts in local land use\, building and fire codes to speed up deployment. Unlike the large utility-scale renewables projects\, which compete in a statewide market\, these projects are tied to the local grid\, and are more sensitive to local conditions.  Many of these issues stand outside or straddle the policy authorities of individual federal or local agencies.   No one constituency can resolve the challenges in every jurisdiction.    The two-day conference will explore these challenges in detail by engaging stakeholders in discussions with experts\, regulators and other stakeholder groups.   The invitation-only conference is intended to be highly participatory and requires extensive facilitation and advance work.  Some participants will take roles as participants or facilitators.   All participants will review discussion papers set for each panel\, as well as other conference materials (such as a paper describing technologies and their attributes.)  For more information visit the official website at http://gov.ca.gov/s_energyconference.php

SUMMARY:UCCS presents J.R. DeShazo - "Improving the Design of Local Solar Programs: A Case Study of Los Angeles"
DESCRIPTION:In the search for clean energy solutions\, new public policies are creating incentives for solar energy throughout California. J.R. DeShazo\, Director of the Luskin Center for Innovation\, will discuss his high-profile solar policy study that provides data on the potential impact that regional solar power policies can have on Los Angeles’ renewable power sources. Specifically\, his analysis of rooftop solar potential in Los Angeles. Los Angeles is endowed not only with bountiful sunshine\, but also with vast expanses of low-rise urban development that offers valuable sitting opportunities for distributed solar energy generation. In addition\, DeShazo will give a brief overview of his recent solar Feed-In Tariff research which resulted in Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa’s release of a long-term\, comprehensive solar plan\, including a proposal for a solar Feed-in Tariff program administered by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.  The information may prove useful for economic development planners\, solar photovoltaic (PV) installers\, utility planners\, building owners\, public administrators\, labor union leadership\, and anyone interested in the development of solar power in California.\nVisit http://bit.ly/jHkXF8 to register.

SUMMARY:The Environmental Performance of Multinationals: Analyzing Differences between Host and Home Countries
DESCRIPTION:Should Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) adopt the same environmental standards when they operate in different countries? While it is assumed that MNEs can take advantage of cross-country differences in environmental regulations by moving production capacity to countries with lax environmental standards to reduce some of their costs\, in this paper\, we argue that MNEs can benefit from adopting the same environmental standards in all their international operations to improve their productivity\, efficiency\, and reputation. We will present results based on 128 MNEs with headquarters and subsidiaries based in the USA\, Canada\, France and Spain.Speaker BiographyAlberto Aragon-Correa is a Full Professor of Management at University of Granada (Spain). Alberto’s research interests include the connections between natural environment and corporate strategic management. He is now a Visiting Scholar at UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability and works with Professor Magali Delmas (Director of the UCLA Center for Corporate Environmental Performance). Professor Aragon-Correa leads the ISDE-Innovation\, Sustainability\, and Development- at University of Granada involving 23 full time scholars. His research and visiting position is funded by the European Commission and the Spanish Ministry of Research.  Alberto has published papers in multiple top tier journals.

SUMMARY:Anderson Policy Area Seminar Series Featuring  Magali Delmas
DESCRIPTION:While research suggests that information policies have thepotential to reduce environmental pollution by allowing customers or investors\nto choose products or prefer companies with a smaller environmental footprint\,\nwe still have little understanding about the conditions under which people\nrespond to information about environmental performance and act on it. In this\nresearch\, we test the effect of intrinsic motivations\, social norms and\nreputation as potential motivators in the context of energy conservation\nbehavior. We implement a field experiment where we provide consumers with\nprivate and public information about their energy usage. Private information in\nthe form of real time feedback helps consumers understand their energy usage and\nlowers the cost of conservation. Public information in the form of energy\ndisplay posters about consumers’ individual energy usage allowed consumers to\nexperience reputation benefits from conspicuous conservation. The results of\nthe year-long experiment in the residence halls at the University of California\nLos Angeles\, show that reputational concerns effectively motivated heavy\nelectricity users to reduce consumption by 15 percent. Public information in\nconjunction with private information was more effective than private\ninformation alone to motivate conservation behavior.  \nFor\nmore information on this talk\, or other Policy Area seminars\, please visit:\nhttp://www.anderson.ucla.edu/x3681.xml
