The Rule and Control Measure Forecast Report provides the Board with a monthly update of AQMD’s rulemaking and control measure implementation schedule. Scheduling changes which occurred since last month’s forecast are summarized.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added

Rule 109	Recordkeepng for Volatile Organic Compound Emissions
Proposed amendment to Rule 109 is being scheduled for January 2001 to address issues relating to recordkeeping for super compliant materials.
Rule 201	Permit to Construct
Proposed amendment to Rule 201 is being rescheduled from December to 2001 (date to be determined) to incorporate EPA's action.
Rule 219 Rule 481 Rule 1107 Rule 1141   Rule 1141.1 Rule 1141.2 Rule 1162	Equipment Not Requiring a Written Permit Pursuant to Regulation II Spray Coating Operations Coating of Metal Parts and Products Control of Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Resin  Manufacturing Coating and Ink Manufacturing Surfactant Manufacturing Polyester Resin Operations
In September, the SCAQMD Governing Board set the hearing for 60 days to allow additional time for CEQA analysis. Proposed amendments to Rules 219, 481, 1107, 1141, 1141.1, 1141.2 and 1162 are being rescheduled from October to November.
Rule 1103	Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics Manufacturing Operations
As part of its review of the 1997 AQMP, CARB provided comments to the AQMD to amend Rule 1103 to make it as stringent as comparable rules in other air districts in California. Amendments to Rule 1103 were adopted in 1999 specifically to comply with CARB's request. By amending Rule 1103, the AQMD has also complied with the Settlement Agreement, which also requires amending Rule 1103 to make it as stringent as comparable rules in other air districts in California. As a result, Rule 1103 is now being removed from the Rule Forecast Report and this information will be forwarded CARB. (See Attachment "E").
Rule 1110.2	Emissions from Gaseous and Liquid Fueled Internal Combustion Engines
Proposed amendment to Rule 1110.2 is being rescheduled from 2000 to 2001 (date to be determined). Staff will develop proposed amendments to Rule 1110.2 after EPA provides a response to comments that were submitted to EPA on their proposed SIP action for this rule.
Rule 1132*	Emission Reductions from Large Solvent and Coating Operations (CM #99 CTS-09)
Proposed Rule 1132 is being rescheduled from November 2000 to January 2001 to additional staff additional time resolve key issues raised during the rule development.
Rule 1195	Clean On-Road School Buses
Proposed Rule 1195 is being rescheduled from December 2000 to January 2001 to allow more time to develop funding proposals and to evaluate the results of pilot studies underway to test particulate traps. Proposed Rule 1195 will require public school bus fleet operators to purchase or lease cleaner school buses when adding or replacing school buss in the fleet. Under Sections 40919 and 40447.5 of the Health and Safety Code, the AQMD can require fleet operators of 15 or more vehicles to purchase cleaner burning vehicles.

Rule 1425	Motion Picture Film Labs
Proposed Rule 1425 is being rescheduled from December to January to allow staff additional time to work with affected parties.
Reg. XVI	Mobile Source Credit Programs (CM #99 FLX-01)
Proposed amendment to Regulation XVI is being rescheduled from 2000 to 2001 (date to be determined). Amendments to rules will be required if Regulation XXV - Intercredit Trading is approved. Regulation XXV is scheduled for December 2001.
Rule 1612.1	Credits for Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicles
Proposed Rule 1612.1 is being rescheduled from November to December to allow staff additional time to resolve key issues.
Rule 1624	Credits for Clean Pleasure Craft Engines
Proposed Rule 1624 is being rescheduled from date to-be-determined 2000 to 2001 (date to be determined) to allow staff additional input from interested parties to develop credit generating approaches regarding pleasure craft engines.
Reg. XX	RECLAIM
Proposed amendment to Regulation XX is being rescheduled from 2000 to March 2001 to allow for the decisions of the Governing Board and any following results of the October 2000 public hearing to ratify the findings of the RECLAIM program. This postponement will also allow the refinery facilities time to learn whether clean fuels credits will be required for Phase 3.
Rule 2202	On-Road Motor Vehicle Mitigation Options
Proposed amendment to Rule 2202 is being rescheduled from December 2000 to January 2001 to allow staff additional time to conduct a public workshop with affected parties and to address any issues or concerns.
Reg. XXV	Intercredit Trading (CM#99) FLX-01)
Proposed amendment to Regulation XXV is being rescheduled from 2000 to 2001 (date to be determined). EPA is revising its draft Economic Incentive Program Guidelines. When the guidelines are published, staff will proceed with development of intercredit trading rules.
Reg. XXX Rule 3003 Rule 3005 Rule 3008	Title V Facility Permits Applications Permit Revisions Potential to Emit Limitations
Staff is proposing Rules 3003, 3005 and 3008 to be added to the rule development schedule for January 2001. New proposed Rule 3008 will establish facility emissions limits for Title V minor sources (facilities which have the potential to emit pollutants equal to or less than the major source thresholds for regulated air pollutants and hazardous air pollutants). The adoption of the rule will reduce the number of facilities required to obtain a Title V Facility Permit and compliance will be determined based on specific reporting and record keeping requirements. Proposed Amended Rule 3003 will extend the deadline for filing Title V Facility Permit applications. Proposed Amended Rule 3005 will correct SIP deficiencies.

The following rules were previously scheduled for 2001 to-be-determined and are now scheduled for the following months for the year 2001.

Rule 1124	Aerospace Assembly and Component Manufacturing Operations
Proposed amendment to Rule 1124 is being scheduled for September.
Rule 1133	Emission Reductions from Composting Operations (CM #99 WST-02)
Proposed Rule 1133 is being scheduled for August.
Rule 1137	Emission Reductions from Woodworking Operations (PM10) (CM#97 PRC-01)
Proposed Rule 1137 is being scheduled for August.
Rule 1421	Control of Perchloroethylene Emissions from Dry Cleaning Systems
Proposed amendment to Rule 1421 is being scheduled for September.
Rule 1426 Rule 1469	Metal Finishing Hexavalent Chromium Emissions from Chrome Plating and Chrome Acid Anodizing Operations
Proposed amendment to Rules 1426 and proposed Rule 1469 are being scheduled for November.

MASTER CALENDAR

Below is a list of all rulemaking activity scheduled for the year 2000. The last three columns refer to the type of rule adoption or amendment: AQMP refers to the adoption and implementation of AQMP control measures (Attachment A); Toxics refers to the adoption and implementation of programmatic as well as source specific toxic related rules (Attachment B); and Other refers to administrative rules or changes to an existing rule to clarify or improve rule enforceability, SIP corrections, or implementing state or federal regulations (Attachment C). A more detailed description of the proposed rule adoption or amendment is located after this calendar under the type of rule adoption or amendment (i.e. AQMP, Toxics, and Other) Upcoming Public Workshops are located at the end of the report (Attachment D).
