Clean Air Partners Awards Facilities
Twenty-six facilities have earned an "A+" for their
exceptional efforts at achieving early compliance with the monitoring,
reporting and recordkeeping requirements of the RECLAIM rules.
For their efforts each company will be presented with a Clean
Air Partners Award during the Governing Board Hearing on January
12, 1996.
On October 15, 1993, the AQMD Governing Board adopted the RECLAIM
program. The goal of the RECLAIM program is to provide facilities
with added flexibility in meeting emission reduction requirements
and lower the cost of compliance. The implementation of RECLAIM
during the first compliance year was highly successful. Please
see the companion report on this agenda for the first RECLAIM
Annual Report.
Compliance rates were very high for the first year of the program;
and, many companies deserve praise. However, 26 companies earned
an "A+." The criteria for the Clear Air Partners Awards
were:
Early installation and operation of monitoring equipment; and,
Consistent and correct reporting of emissions.
To these facilities we offer deepest congratulations -- job well
done!
