Recent Key PM LegislationRecent Key PM Legislation
• SB 700 (Florez): Agriculture andAir Quality
• SB 656 (Sher): Reduce Public Exposure to Particulate Matter
![Page 3: CAPCOA’S Perspective on Recent Key PM Legislation in California](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051117/56815d04550346895dcb04c5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
SB 700SB 700
• Focus on Agricultural Emissions:
– California law previously exempted ag from permit requirements, and California faced federal sanctions;
– Ag emissions reductions needed for attainment purposes in certain areas.

SB 700 Has Six Main ElementsSB 700 Has Six Main Elements
• Defines “agricultural source” in state law;• Removes ag restriction for air permits;• Establishes specific permitting requirements and
exemptions for ag sources;• Requires ag emission control requirements in
PM10 non-attainment areas;• Requires permits and mitigations for “large”
confined animal facilities; and• Requires CAPCOA to establish clearinghouse.

Defining “Ag Source”Defining “Ag Source”
• Source used for production of crops, raising of fowl or animals under common ownership meeting any of the following:– Confined animal facility (CAF)– Has internal combustion engines– Subject to Title V of Federal CAA
• Potential to Emit• Point (not fugitive dust sources)
![Page 6: CAPCOA’S Perspective on Recent Key PM Legislation in California](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051117/56815d04550346895dcb04c5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Removing the Permit ExemptionRemoving the Permit Exemption
• California Health and Safety Code:– Removed broad exemption under Section
42310– Created exemption guidelines under
42301.16 (e.g., findings that source does not contribute to violations of state/federal standards)
![Page 7: CAPCOA’S Perspective on Recent Key PM Legislation in California](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051117/56815d04550346895dcb04c5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Specific Permitting & Exemption Specific Permitting & Exemption RequirementsRequirements
• Sources subject to federal permitting– Title V– Title I – NSR
• Sources > 50% federal NSR threshold– Based on actual emissions– Permits required unless local Board makes
certain findings– Prohibitory rules may still apply
![Page 8: CAPCOA’S Perspective on Recent Key PM Legislation in California](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051117/56815d04550346895dcb04c5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Specific Permitting & Exemption Specific Permitting & Exemption Requirements (cont’d)Requirements (cont’d)
• Sources < 50% federal NSR threshold– Based on actual emissions– Permits NOT required unless local Board
makes certain findings– Prohibitory rules may still apply
• Other exemptions– De minimis (<1 ton per year)– Sources that implement all listed mitigations

Emission Control Requirements in Emission Control Requirements in Federal PM10 Nonattainment AreasFederal PM10 Nonattainment Areas• Serious areas
– Must implement BACM and BARCT by January 1, 2006
• Moderate areas– Must implement measures by Jan 1, 2007
unless findings that sources do not contribute significantly to violations of state/federal standards
![Page 11: CAPCOA’S Perspective on Recent Key PM Legislation in California](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051117/56815d04550346895dcb04c5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
““Large” CAF’sLarge” CAF’s
• Must be defined by CARB by July 1, 2005• Districts by July 1, 2006 must have rules to:
– Require application for permit within 6 months– Require emissions mitigation plan for RACT and
BARCT in mdt/ser and sev/extr ozone non-attainment areas, respectively
• Districts must assess impacts of rules• Conditions for rules in ozone attainment areas.

Mitigation ClearinghouseMitigation Clearinghouse
• CAPCOA has responsibility to develop• Serve as a source of information• Non-regulatory; non-binding process• Available to districts
– South Coast to host website• Must be ready by January 1, 2005

CAPCOA EffortsCAPCOA Efforts
• Work to develop guidelines to districts• Promote uniform implementation process• Briefings to agriculture and environmental
communities• Commitment to outreach to districts
requesting informational assistance• Committees/consultant working on
clearinghouse information

• Must select appropriate subset of measures– Base selection on nature and severity of PM
problem– Consider cost-effectiveness and feasibility as
applicable to each air district– Harmonize with ongoing regulatory efforts
