SB 6092: Greenhouse gas disclosures

Concerning disclosure of greenhouse gas emissions.

Summary

  • Requires the Department of Ecology (Ecology) to research and follow developments on the Security and Exchange Commission's (SEC) Climate Change Disclosure proposed rule, and, by 18 months after the SEC's final rule, deliver a report to the Legislature with recommendations for climate-related disclosure requirements in Washington.
  • Directs Ecology to include in its report specific recommendations, including how Washington law can align with the SEC's final rule, and whether the scope 1, scope 2, and scope 3 disclosure requirements in the SEC's proposed rule are sufficient to track emissions for the purposes of compliance with the Climate Commitment Act, the Clean Fuels Program, and the state's greenhouse gas emissions reductions reporting requirements.
