Cal. Health & Safety Code § 44536

The authority may approve financing for a pollution control facility, or equipment for a facility, that is not owned by the applicant if the facility or equipment is a component of an approved tradeoff package to achieve air quality standards. The authority may also approve financing for projects where the owner of the project enters into a lease or operating agreement with another entity that will use the project. In either case both the owner and the user shall be treated as participating parties.
