WHEREAS, Chapter 6 of the CAP presents an overview of the County's CAP Work Plan and describes that
the Work Plan is necessary to achieve emissions reduction and adaptation goals, monitor
implementation, and demonstrate progress; and,
WHEREAS, the CAP Work Plan identifies each Emission Reduction and Adaptation Measure set forth
under Chapter 4 and, 5 of the CAP and provides the following additional information for each measure
and adaptation strategy:
Time Frames(2014, 2016, 20,18, or 20,20)
W Lead Agency/Additional Supportive Agencies
0 Estimated Staff Time; and,
WHEREAS, certain CAP measures may exceed expectations for GHG reduction and provide more cost-
effective options to reduce emissions, while other measures may not meet anticipated reductions. A
(Monitoring and Reporting tool will be used to provide annual updates to decision-makers in ordler to
reassess funding decisions and allocation of staff time; and,
WHEREAS, the CAP Fork Plan provides an initial framework and a means for the County to prioritize
work, and the Work Plan may be revised or updated from time to time to change specified' time frames
for the completion of measures and adaptation strategies, agency responsibilities, and estimates of staff
time.
NOW, THEREFORE, E IT RESOLVED, that the Butte County (Board of Supervisors hereby adopts the CAP

Work Plan
Adopted Febt'uirwy,23,2074
To demonstrate progress toward plan goals,the County will use a monitoring and reporting tool.Using the same technical data that informed
development of the CAP, the tool will allow County staff to evaluate CAP progress using quantitative data and qualitative progress
information. The monitoring and reporting tool estimates emissions changes in the unincorporated county year-by-year using publicly
available activity data,and tracks progress for each measure,including initiation dates and key metrics.
Certain measures may exceed expectations and provide more cost-effective options to reduce emissions.Other measures may not meet
anticipated reductions.The Development Services Department will use the monitoring and reporting tool to provide updates to decision-
makers in order to reassess funding decisions and allocation of staff time.Annual updates using the monitoring and reporting tool also allow
the County to reduce the need for a full re-inventory of GHG emissions to evaluate progress,
Attaining CAP reduction goals will require County leadership to execute measures and report progress.Recognizing the numerous entities
involved in CAP implementation and diversity of work priorities,the County has prepared a work plan identifying responsible departments
and key implementation considerations for each CAP measure.The work plan will be established by separate resolution of the Board of
Supervisors,and may be revised or updated independent of an amendment to the CAP.Each work plan consideration is described below.
* Time frame:The year by which a measure should be initiated to achieve targeted GHG emissions reductions in 2020,support adaptation
to climate change effects,or achieve long-term resilience.Time frames are described as follows:
a immediate(by 201',4)
a Near-Term(by 2016)
a Mid.-Term(by2018)
a Long-Term(by 2020)
* Lead,agency:The lead County department tasked with implementing the measure,
* Additional agencies:Other supportive agencies or partners that play a role in implementing the measure.
Al Staff time:An estimate of the likely expense and staff time required to implement the measure.The County can use this information to
help determine if a measure is the best use of County resources.Three cost ranges have been identified,as described below.
