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 that occurred since last month's forecast are summarized.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added
 

Rule 102	Definition of Terms
Proposed amendment to Rule 102 is being removed from the July calendar. At its May 18, 2001 meeting, the Administrative Committee decided that this proposal should be handled through a public advisory effort rather than a rule development.
Rule 1133	Emission Reduction from Composting Operations (CM#99 WST-02)
Proposed Rule 1133 is being rescheduled from August 2001 to October 2001. Additional time is needed to assess proposed changes to the California Integrated Waste Management Board's composting regulations and to work with affected facilities on specific control requirements.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added (Continued)
 

Rule 1191.1	Clean On-Road Light-and Medium-Duty Fleet Vehicles for Private Fuel Suppliers and Utilities
Proposed Rule 1191.1 is being rescheduled from July 2001 to early 2002. Additional time is needed to identify number of affected vehicles and potential impacts.
Rule 1196.1	Clean On-Road Heavy-Duty Public Fleet Vehicles for Private Fuel Suppliers and Utilities
Proposed Rule 1196.1 is being rescheduled from July 2001 to early 2002. Additional time is needed to identify number of affected vehicles and potential impacts.
Reg. XX	RECLAIM
At the May 11, 2001 AQMD Governing Board meeting, the Board requested the opportunity to consider allowing small refiners access to the RECLAIM Air Quality Investment Program (RECLAIM AQIP). The proposed amendment would change the definition of Structural Buyer in Rule 2000 to include certain small refiners. Proposed amendments to RECLAIM are being scheduled for July 2001.
Rule 2202	On-Road Motor Vehicle Mitigation Options
Proposed amendments to Rule 2202 are being added to October 2001 calendar. The proposed amendments consist of a change in the definition of employee. A new category of exempted Police/Sheriff employees will be added to the rule. A prorated credit for the use of Alternative-Fueled Vehicles is also being considered. In addition, proposed amendments will include the removal of "remote sensing" as a compliance strategy. Other minor amendments may be proposed to streamline the implementation of this rule.

MASTER CALENDAR
