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.
 

1118	Emissions from Refinery Flares (CMB-07)
Rule 1118 is being moved to September from July to allow additional time for staff analysis and public input.
1146.2* +   1121* +	Emissions of Oxides of Nitrogen from Large Water Heaters and Small Boilers Control of Nitrogen Oxides from Residential Type, Natural Gas-Fired Water Heaters
Rules 1146.2 and 1121 are being moved to September from July to allow additional time to collect information and discuss alternatives with manufacturers and other interested parties. Also, additional time allows staff to assess the practicality of rearranging the lower and upper equipment size ranges of Rules 1146.2 and 1121, respectively, to improve rule effectiveness.

Rules to be Rescheduled/Removed and Added
 

1156	PM10 Emissions Reductions from Cement Manufacturing Operations (BCM-08)
Rule 1156 is being moved to September from July to allow additional time for staff analysis and public input.
1162	Polyester Resin Operations
Proposed amendments to Rule 1162 are being moved to July from June to add a transfer efficiency exemption for limited usage for certain specialty gel coats. Additional time is required for recirculation of the CEQA document.
1186.1 1196	Less Polluting Sweepers Clean On-Road Heavy-Duty Public Fleet Vehicles
Proposed amendments to Fleet Rules 1186.1 and 1196 are being added to the September rule schedule. Amendments will propose the extension of sunset dates for affected fleet operators to request an exemption to purchase non-rule compliant vehicles, if there is no alternative fuel refueling station within five miles of the vehicle storage or maintenance yards.
1401	New Source Review of Toxic Air Contaminants
No amendment to Rule 1401 is needed at this time. It is being moved to TBD from July awaiting development of testing protocol for crystalline silica.

2005 MASTER CALENDAR
Advance Target for Board Hearings

Below is a list of all rulemaking activity scheduled for the year 2005. 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).

*An asterisk indicates that the rulemaking is a potentially significant hearing.
+This proposed rule will reduce criteria air contaminants and assist toward
   attainment of ambient air quality standards.
