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 have occurred since last month’s forecast are summarized.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added
 

Rule 219	Equipment Not Requiring a Written Permit Pursuant to Regulation II
Proposed amendments to Rule 219 are being rescheduled from September to an unspecified date in 2002 to allow staff additional time to work with stakeholders to identify additional low-emitting equipment categories that could be exempt from permit requirements and completion of the necessary impact analyses.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added (continued)
 

Rule 222	Filing Requirements for Specific Emission Sources Not Requiring a Written Permit Pursuant to Regulation II
The proposed amendment would require low emission sources that are exempt from permit requirements under Rule 219 to submit a filing. Proposed amendments to Rule 222 are being rescheduled from September to an unspecified date in 2002 to allow staff additonal time to work with stakeholders to identify additional low-emitting equipment categories for filing, as well as streamline the administrative process.
Rule 1105.1	Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units
Proposed amendments to Rule 1105.1 are being rescheduled from July 2002 to September 2002 to allow time for further analysis of control technology and costs.
Rule 1112.1	Emissions of Particulate Matter and Carbon Monoxide from Cement Kilns
Proposed amendments to Rule 1112.1 are being rescheduled from June 2002 to unspecified date. Additional time is needed to address remaining issues raised by the affected industries.
Rule 1186	PM10 Emissions from Paved and Unpaved Roads, and Livestock Operations
Proposed amendments to Rule 1186 are rescheduled from September 2002 to 2003 due to the expanded scope of the amendments to address issues in Coachella Valley. Addressing the non-attainment situation in Coachella Valley will include review of existing PM10 control rules and new more stringent PM10 control measures. Thus, development of rule proposal has been delayed until the completion of the new Coachella Valley SIP and will be combined with proposed amendments to Rule 403.
Rule 1411 Rule 1415	Recovery or Recycling of Refrigerants from Motor Vehicle Air Conditioners Reduction of Refrigerant Emissions from Stationary Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Systems
Staff scheduled Rules 1415 and 1411 as potential candidates for rescission due to the presence of similar rules at the federal level. However, after completing its evaluation, staff concluded that these rules are important adjuncts to federal programs in that they offer a local enforcement presence and the opportunity for better response to complaints. Therefore, staff is removing Rules 1415 and 1411 from the Rule and Control Measure Forecast Report.
Rule 1421	Control of Perchloroethylene Emissions from Dry Cleaning Systems
Proposed amendments to Rule 1421 are being rescheduled from Summer 2002 to August 2002.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added (continued)
 

Rule 1631	Pilot Credit Generation Program for Marine Vessels
Proposed amendments to Rule 1631 are being rescheduled from July 2002 to September 2002 to allow time to obtain additional information for rule development.

 
MASTER CALENDAR
Advance Target for Board Hearings

Below is a list of all rulemaking activity scheduled for the year 2002.
