The LFG engine scenario would <br /> • result in lower emissions increases of NOx, PM10 and PM2.5• <br /> • Rule 2201 requires new and modified stationary sources of emissions to mitigate emissions <br /> • using best available control technology (BACT) and to offset emissions when above emissions <br /> • offset threshold levels. All VOCs, NOx, CO, SOx, PM10 and PM2.5 emissions from stationary <br /> • sources in excess of the applicable SJVAPCD emissions offset threshold levels shall be offset by <br /> acquisition of emission offsets, as required by SJVAPCD Rule 2201 regulations. For example, <br /> • under the Project (flare)—Current Actual scenario, a total of 19.0 tpy of NOx emissions would <br /> • be offset(29.0 tpy—10 tpy);while under the Project(LFG Engines) —Current Actual scenario, a <br /> • total of 11.1 tpy of NOx emissions would be offset(20.1 tpy—10 tpy). Thus, the stationary <br /> source NOx emissions would be mitigated with emission offsets and would be less than <br /> • significant. <br /> • <br /> • To determine whether Project emissions would exceed the NAAQS or CAAQS, emissions were <br /> • modeled, added to background concentrations and compared to the standards. Project(future <br /> potential)—Current Actual emissions of CO, NO2 and SO2 would not exceed the NAAQS or <br /> CAAQS when added to background concentrations. Project (future potential)—Current Actual <br /> • emissions of PM10 and PM2.5were found to contribute to background concentrations that exceed <br /> the NAAQS and CAAQS (the SJVAPCD is designated nonattainment for PM10 and PM2.5). <br /> Additional information regarding the assumptions and methodologies used in the ambient air <br /> • quality analysis is available in the AQIA by SCS Engineers (See Appendix D). <br /> • <br /> • With implementation of Mitigation Measures D.2a. and D.2b.,stationary sources would be <br /> mitigated (by D.2a.)and fugitive emissions and mobile emissions would be mitigated (by <br /> • D.2b.). The future emission offsets to be purchased as required by Mitigation Measures D.2a. <br /> and D.2b. would reduce emissions in the SJVAB and the Project's contribution to existing <br /> • violations of the NAAQS and CAAQS would not be considered substantial after mitigation. <br /> • Thus, with mitigation, this impact would be less than significant. <br /> • Mitigation Measure D.2a. (Revises 2013 EIR Mitigation Measure D.2a.): The applicant shall <br /> comply with SJVAPCD Rule 2201 regulations to offset stationary source emissions of VOCs, <br /> • CO, NO, SO, PM10 and PM2.5 in excess of the applicable SJVAPCD emissions offset threshold <br /> levels. The applicant shall also comply with Regulation VIII and implement Mitigation <br /> • Measure D.1. for operational activities such as earthmoving. <br /> • <br /> • Mitigation Measure D.2b. (Same as 2013 EIR Mitigation Measure D.2b.): The applicant shall <br /> • enter into a Voluntary Emissions Reduction Agreement(VERA) with the SJVAPCD (to offset <br /> unmitigated mobile and fugitive dust emission impacts). The VERA shall cover mobile <br /> • emissions and fugitive emissions (above the SJVAPCD CEQA thresholds for NOx, PM10 and <br /> • PM2.5) associated with the 8.1 mcy of new capacity. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br />
