41804
. Burning may be authorized under Section 41802 only if:
(a) The district board finds that it is more desirable to dispose
of such waste by burning than to dispose of it by other available
means, such as, but not limited to, by removing it to sanitary fills.
(b) The district has developed criteria for such disposal, which
shall include provisions to improve the combustibility of such waste
to reduce its smoke level.
(c) The state board has approved the criteria developed pursuant
to subdivision (b).
(d) Such authorization, if granted, shall be in the form of a
permit issued by the district air pollution control officer, and such
permit shall allow burning only on days during which agricultural
burning is not prohibited by the state board pursuant to Section
41855.
(e) The district board may adopt rules and regulations to
authorize any burning authorized under Section 41802, to review each
proposed burn prior to authorizing its air pollution control officer
to issue a permit for the burn, or to delegate to its air pollution
control officer the authority to approve or disapprove each proposed
burn after consideration of the amount of waste to be burned, the
season of the year, the ambient air quality, the proximity of the
waste to developed areas, or such other or additional criteria as the
district board may establish.
