Section 44342 Of Chapter 3. Air Toxics Emission Inventories From California Health And Safety Code >> Division 26. >> Part 6. >> Chapter 3.
44342
. The state board shall, on or before May 1, 1989, in
consultation with the districts, develop criteria and guidelines for
site-specific air toxics emissions inventory plans which shall be
designed to comply with the conditions specified in Section 44340 and
which shall include at least all of the following:
(a) For each class of facility, a designation of the hazardous
materials for which emissions are to be quantified and an
identification of the likely source types within that class of
facility. The hazardous materials for quantification shall be chosen
from among, and may include all or part of, the list specified in
Section 44321.
(b) Requirements for a facility diagram identifying each actual or
potential discrete emission point and the general locations where
fugitive emissions may occur. The facility diagram shall include any
nonpermitted and nonprocess sources of emissions and shall provide
the necessary data to identify emission characteristics. An existing
facility diagram which meets the requirements of this section may be
submitted.
(c) Requirements for source testing and measurement. The
guidelines may specify appropriate uses of estimation techniques
including, but not limited to, emissions factors, modeling, mass
balance analysis, and projections, except that source testing shall
be required wherever necessary to verify emission estimates to the
extent technologically feasible. The guidelines shall specify
conditions and locations where source testing, fence-line monitoring,
or other measurement techniques are to be required and the frequency
of that testing and measurement.
(d) Appropriate testing methods, equipment, and procedures,
including quality assurance criteria.
(e) Specifications for acceptable emissions factors, including,
but not limited to, those which are acceptable for substantially
similar facilities or equipment, and specification of procedures for
other estimation techniques and for the appropriate use of available
data.
(f) Specification of the reporting period required for each
hazardous material for which emissions will be inventoried.
(g) Specifications for the collection of useful data to identify
toxic air contaminants pursuant to Article 2 (commencing with Section
39660) of Chapter 3.5 of Part 2.
(h) Standardized format for preparation of reports and
presentation of data.
(i) A program to coordinate and eliminate any possible overlap
between the requirements of this chapter and the requirements of
Section 313 of the Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act of
1986 ( Public Law 99-499).
The state board shall design the guidelines and criteria to ensure
that, in collecting data to be used for emissions inventories,
actual measurement is utilized whenever necessary to verify the
accuracy of emission estimates, to the extent technologically
feasible.
