San Joaquin Valley <br /> Unified Air Pollution Control District <br /> December 29, 1994 <br /> Chandler Martin �T 7- <br /> San Joaquin County � <br /> Community Development Department i' <br /> 1810 East Hazelton Avenue 31995 <br /> Stockton, CA 95205 r 13OtLU#'€ tl , ui <br /> SUBJECT: DV-94-31SU-94-3 LANNING <br /> Dear Mr. Martin: <br /> The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (District) has reviewed <br /> the above referenced document and offers the following comments: <br /> The San Joaquin Valley's air quality has been designated nonattainment by the EPA <br /> and the California Air Resources Board for the following pollutants, PM10 (fine <br /> particulate matter, dust) and 03 (ozone). The California Clean Air Act requires areas <br /> that are designated as nonattainment to reduce emissions 5% annually until standards <br /> are met. <br /> This project has been determined by the District to have a minimal long-term or <br /> operational effect on air quality. However, there are air quality impacts that will be <br /> associated with construction phase of this project. Projects of this type can generate <br /> emissions from the movement of soil, use of construction equipment, bulk materials <br /> handling, asphalt paving and other related activities. <br /> This project is subject to District Regulation VIII (Fugitive Dust Prohibitions). The <br /> purpose of Regulation VIII is to reduce the amount of fine particulate matter (PM,o) <br /> entrained into the ambient air from man-made sources. Specifically, the Rules within <br /> Regulation VIII that apply to your project are: Rule 8010 (Administrative <br /> Requirements), Rule 8020 (Construction, Demolition, Excavation, and Extraction <br /> Activities), and Rule 8030 (Handling and Storage of Bulk Materials). <br /> David L.Crow <br /> Executive Director,Air Pollution Control Officer <br /> Northern Region Central Region Southern Region <br />
