Rule 2202 Amendments: What you need to know

Starting on January 1, 2025, South Coast AQMD will be enforcing recent amendments to Rule 2202, furthering efforts to reduce emissions caused by employee commutes. Employers in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties with 250 or more employees at a worksite will be subject to comply with three new reporting requirements.
  • Business Type/Classification Employers will now be required to report their business type or classification. The amendment defines this as “the activity type that classifies the primary nature of work conducted at the worksite.” The reporting of this information is intended to aid in assessing telecommuting trends and capabilities across a variety of business types and sectors.
  • Telecommuting Activity Regarding telecommuting trends, employers will be required to report on telecommuting trends among their employees. Commutes have been impacted by the rise of work-from-home and the AQMD is looking to better understand the extent of this impact. Amendments also include defining “telecommuting” vs “remote” to add consistency with guideline documents and create a distinction.
    • Telecommuting – Telecommuting occurs when an employee works a full day at home, away from a worksite, or at a telecommuting center that eliminates a trip to work or reduces travel distance by more than 50%.
    • Remote – Remote employees are those assigned to a worksite but who live and work outside of the South Coast AQMD and commute to the worksite less than five days a year.
  • Weekly Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)The third reporting change is the requirement to report the weekly VMT totals for each commute mode and the overall total weekly VMT. VMT via the VMT calculator linked below. The instructions for how to use this calculator tool can also be found here. The ETC was previously required just for those employers choosing the rideshare program option. ETCs must have “completed a South Coast AQMD certified training course and has been appointed to develop, market, administer, and monitor the worksite’s chosen Rule 2202 compliance option.”
  In addition to the three new reporting and on-site ETC requirements, the strategies for the Rideshare Program option of Rule 2022 have been expanded. Strategies that can now be claimed with this program include zero emission vehicle charging stations, car sharing services, offering a mobility hub, membership in a Transportation Management Organization, and voluntary worksite transfers.

Go Glendale 2023 Average Vehicle Ridership Survey Results

In 2023, a significant number of individuals resumed in-person work routines more consistently. With the decrease in telework, this year's Average Vehicle Ridership (AVR) survey reveals  a promising uptick in sustainable commuting modes and transit as opposed to a mass transition back to single-occupancy vehicles. Throughout October, Go Glendale collaborated with the City of Glendale to conduct an AVR survey across our ten member properties in Downtown Glendale. For one week, we asked you about your commute routines, your thoughts on public transportation, and ideas on what changes could make sustainable commutes to and from Glendale even easier. Go Glendale then analyzed and summarized these results, bringing you the final results in this post.

Explore how commuting in Glendale has evolved, comparing the data with the findings from 2022!

As a note, the Average Vehicle Ridership is a ratio of the number of employee/resident trips over the number of vehicle trips. The higher the ratio, the fewer vehicle trips are being taken in comparison to all trips.
