Section 40727.2 Of Chapter 6.5. Regulations Of Air Pollution Control And Air Quality Management Boards From California Health And Safety Code >> Division 26. >> Part 3. >> Chapter 6.5.
40727.2
. (a) In complying with Section 40727, the district shall
prepare a written analysis as required by this section. In the
analysis, the district shall identify all existing federal air
pollution control requirements, including, but not limited to,
emission control standards constituting best available control
technology for new or modified equipment, that apply to the same
equipment or source type as the rule or regulation proposed for
adoption or modification by the district. The analysis shall also
identify any of that district's existing or proposed rules and
regulations that apply to the same equipment or source type, and all
air pollution control requirements and guidelines that apply to the
same equipment or source type and of which the district has been
informed pursuant to subdivision (b). The analysis shall be in a
format that minimizes paperwork and, at the option of the district,
may be in matrix form.
(b) Within 60 days from the date of a district's publication, pursuant to Section 40923, of the list of regulatory measures proposed for adoption in the following year, any person may inform the district of any existing federal or state air pollution control requirement or guideline or proposed or existing district air pollution control requirement or guideline that applies to the same type of source or equipment in that district as any proposed new or amended district rule or regulation on that district's list of regulatory measures. If any person informs the district of any requirement or guideline that does not apply to the same type of source or equipment, the district shall notify the person to that effect and shall not be required to review that requirement or guideline.
(c) The analysis prepared pursuant to subdivision (a) shall compare the elements of each of the identified air pollution control requirements to the corresponding element or elements of the district' s proposed new or amended rule or regulation.
(d) Air pollution control requirement elements to be reviewed pursuant to subdivision (c) are all of the following:
(1) Averaging provisions, units, and any other pertinent provisions associated with emission limits.
(2) Operating parameters and work practice requirements.
(3) Monitoring, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements, including test methods, format, content, and frequency.
(4) Any other element that the district determines warrants review.
(e) If one or more elements of a district's proposed new or amended rule or regulation differs from corresponding elements of any existing air pollution control requirement or guideline applicable to the same equipment or source type, the analysis prepared pursuant to subdivision (a) shall note the difference or differences.
(f) The public hearing notice given to the state board pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 40725, and any notice mailed to interested persons, shall include a statement indicating that the analysis required by this section has been prepared, and shall provide the name, address, and telephone number of a district officer from whom copies may be requested. The analysis required by this section shall be provided to the public upon request.
(g) If a district's proposed new or amended rule or regulation does not impose a new emission limit or standard, make an existing emission limit or standard more stringent, or impose new or more stringent monitoring, reporting, or recordkeeping requirements, or if the proposed new or amended rule or regulation is a verbatim adoption or incorporation by reference of a federal New Source Performance Standard adopted pursuant to Section 111 of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 7411) or an airborne toxic control measure established by the state board pursuant to Section 39658, a district may elect to comply with subdivision (a) by finding that the proposed new or amended rule or regulation falls within one or more of the categories specified in this subdivision.
(h) Nothing in this section limits the existing authority of districts to determine the form, content, and stringency of their rules and regulations. In implementing this section, it is the intent of the Legislature that the districts retain their existing authority and flexibility to tailor their air pollution emission control requirements to local circumstances.
(i) For purposes of this section, a district rule or regulation shall be considered "proposed" if the rule or regulation has been made available to the general public in connection with a request for comments.
(j) To the extent that the district board determines that there are additional costs imposed by this section, the district board shall recover those additional costs through the imposition of fees on regulated entities.
(b) Within 60 days from the date of a district's publication, pursuant to Section 40923, of the list of regulatory measures proposed for adoption in the following year, any person may inform the district of any existing federal or state air pollution control requirement or guideline or proposed or existing district air pollution control requirement or guideline that applies to the same type of source or equipment in that district as any proposed new or amended district rule or regulation on that district's list of regulatory measures. If any person informs the district of any requirement or guideline that does not apply to the same type of source or equipment, the district shall notify the person to that effect and shall not be required to review that requirement or guideline.
(c) The analysis prepared pursuant to subdivision (a) shall compare the elements of each of the identified air pollution control requirements to the corresponding element or elements of the district' s proposed new or amended rule or regulation.
(d) Air pollution control requirement elements to be reviewed pursuant to subdivision (c) are all of the following:
(1) Averaging provisions, units, and any other pertinent provisions associated with emission limits.
(2) Operating parameters and work practice requirements.
(3) Monitoring, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements, including test methods, format, content, and frequency.
