BOARD MEETING DATE: January 11, 2002
AGENDA NO. 2

Set Public Hearings February 1, 2002 to:

1. Receive Public and Board Member Input on Executive Officer's Priority Goals for FY 2002-03: A set of priority goals for the FY 2002-03 Budget has been developed. The Executive Officer wishes to receive public- and Board-member input on these priority goals as they serve as the foundation of the AQMD's Work Program.
   
   
2. Adopt Rule 1137 - PM10 Emissions from Woodworking Operations: The objective of this new rule is to implement the 1997 AQMP control measure PRC-01 by reducing the amount of PM10 generated from woodworking operations. Facilities that may be affected include: lumberyards, cabinet making facilities, furniture manufacturing and other product manufacturing operations. Many facilities currently have cyclones and/or baghouses that reduce PM10 emissions from their operations and will be required to maintain no visible emissions. Proposed rule requirements also include standards for control equipment (at new or expanded facilities), waste collection and disposal activities, enhanced control (i.e., baghouses) and facility reporting. (Review: Stationary Source Committee, December 7, 2001)

The complete text of the proposed amendments, staff reports and other supporting documents will be available no later than January 1, 2002, from the District’s Public Information Center, (909) 396-2550 and on the Internet (www.aqmd.gov).

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Set Public Hearings February 1, 2002 to Receive Public and Board Member Input on Executive Officer's Priority Goals for FY 2002-03 and to adopt Proposed Rule 1137 - PM10 Emissions from Woodworking Operations
