Firms question how carbon levy will fund California rail project

Posted: 21 Oct 2015 04:33 PM PDT

File photo of California Governor Jerry Brown and his wife Anne Gust during a ceremony for the California High Speed Rail in FresnoBy Robin Respaut and Rory Carroll SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Private firms looking to build California's $68 billion high-speed train system have concerns about the state's ability to finance some of the project's cost through an untested 'cap-and-trade' carbon trading levy. The doubts, mentioned in correspondence to the state and reviewed by Reuters through a public records request, are not likely to stall financing for the United States' largest infrastructure project, but indicate a tentativeness among firms to use the money as a stand-alone money-generating tool. The California High-Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) expects to raise $500 million per year for the rail line from the cap-and-trade scheme, essentially funds paid by companies to offset carbon emissions.
