Barry R. Wallerstein, D.Env.
Acting Executive Officer

The Rule and Control Measure Forecast Report provides the Board with a monthly update of AQMD’s rulemaking and control measure implementation schedule. Rulemaking is a dynamic process, subject to ongoing revision. Scheduling changes which occurred since last month’s forecast are summarized:

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed

Rule 1437 – Furniture Stripping Operations

Proposed Rule 1437 is rescheduled from September 1998 to December 1998 to ensure that the rule approach is consistent with Rule 1401 and to explore the development of a product rule to address small ubiquitous uses of methylene chloride. Additional time is needed to conduct additional studies to evaluate further enhancements to the ventilation system to lower cancer risk at specific companies and collecting more data on distribution of companies by methylene chloride usage. Additional time is also needed for the assessment of results from the study on furniture stripping operations conducted by consultant.

Rule 2202 – On-Road Motor Vehicle Mitigation Options

Proposed Amended Rule 2202 is added to the October schedule.

Rule 1173 – Fugitive Emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (CM #97 FUG-04)

Proposed Amended Rule 1173 is rescheduled from August 1998 to December 1998. Additional time is needed for further analysis of data and discussions with affected parties.

Rule 462 – Organic Liquid Loading

Proposed Amended Rule 462 is rescheduled from October 1998 to December 1998. Additional time is needed for further analysis of data and discussions with affected parties.

Rule 461 – Gasoline Transfer and Dispensing

Proposed Amended Rule 461 is rescheduled from September 1998 to October 1998. Staff is implementing a Rule 461 Action Plan to address the unacceptable non-compliance levels at retail gasoline dispensing facilities. Staff is inspecting all stations to identify those components or systems that are most prone to failure and assessing the efficacy of the self compliance program. In addition, the results of the required compliance tests are under review to assess whether or not testing requirements should be modified. The CARB has identified certain certified systems and components with design defects and is formulating corrective measures for those deficiencies. Rescheduling of the hearing is necessary to allow the findings of AQMD and CARB staff to be included in the rulemaking.

Rule 1158 – Storage, Handling, and Transportation of Petroleum Coke

Proposed Amended Rule 1158 is rescheduled from September 1998 to October 1998. Additional time is needed for further analysis of data and discussions with affected facilities, and to enable staff to research additional requirements needed in the amendment of the rule.

Rule 218 – Continuous Emissions Monitoring
Rule 218.1 – Continuous Emission Monitoring Performance Specifications

The Proposed Amended Rule 218 and Proposed Rule 218.1 are rescheduled from August 1998 to September 1998. Staff is recommending a month delay to allow affected industries additional time to comment on recent changes to proposed rule language, and to allow staff to evaluate and respond to those comments. Although these rules are administrative in nature, they address complex technical issues associated with CEMS and will require additional time for regulated facilities to fully evaluate the proposed changes.

RULE AND CONTROL MEASURE FORECAST REPORT - JULY 1998

Advance Target for Board Hearings

AUGUST 1998

1107

Coating of Metal Parts and Products
Proposed amendments will implement CM #97CTS-02H of 1997 AQMP which called for emission reductions of 4.9 tons/day by 2010. This proposal will likely realize smaller emission reductions due to decreased VOC emissions inventory and a more focused target of sources for emissions reductions.

Definition of Minor Violation and Guidelines for Issuance of Notice to Comply
Effective January 1, 1996, AB 2937 (Brulte) required each air district in the state of California to develop a rule governing issuance of a Notice to Comply for minor violations. A CAPCOA task force was convened that year to draft core rule language for adoption by all districts statewide, subject to minor local modifications as required. Following numerous public consultation meetings held throughout the state in 1997, comments were evaluated and rule language modified as necessary. Proposed Rule 112 - Definition of Minor Violation and Guidelines for Issuance of Notice to Comply represents the culmination of this effort to meet the requirements of AB 2937.
