Mr. Martin May 1, eJ06 Global Investment Page 6 Based on the information provided, the proposed project will also be subject to the following District rules. The following items are rules that have been adopted by the District to reduce emissions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required. This project may be subject to additional District Rules not enumerated below. To identify additional rules or regulations that apply to this project, or for further information, the applicant is strongly encouraged to contact the District's Small Business Assistance Office at(209)557-6446. Current District rules can be found at http://www.valleyair.org/r-ules/1 ruleslist htm. Adhering to the requirements of District rules should be considered compliance rather than mitigation. Mitigation is those measures taken to lower emissions above and beyond what is required by compliance with District rules. The District believes this distinction is important because mitigation measures will require the preparation of a mitigation monitoring program that provides the schedule for implementation and the enforcement mechanism. In future documents, the District recommends that compliance with District rules should be stated separately in the air quality discussion as part of the project. Regulation Vlll (Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions) Rules 8011.8081 are designed to reduce PM10 emissions (predominantly dust/dirt) generated by human activity, including construction and demolition activities, road construction, bulk materials storage, paved and unpaved roads, carryout and trackout, landfill operations, etc. The District's compliance assistance bulletin for construction sites can be found at http•//www valleyair orq/busind/comply/PM10/Req%20VI11%20CA6 pdf. If a residential project is 10.0 or more acres in area, or a non-residential project is 5.0 or more acres in area, or the project will include moving, depositing, or relocating more than 2,500 cubic yards per day of bulk materials on at least three days, a Dust Control Plan must be submitted as specified in Section 6.3.1 of Rule 8021. Construction activities shall not commence until the District has approved the Dust Control Plan. A template of the District's Dust Control Plan is available at http://www.valleyair orq/busind/comply/PM10/forms/DCP-Form°/u20 %2012-01 2005 doc. Rule 3135 (Dust Control Plan Fee) This rule requires the applicant to submit a fee in addition to a Dust Control Plan. The purpose of this fee is to recover the District's cost for reviewing these plans and conducting compliance inspections. More information on the fee is available at hftp://www.vallMir.om/ruies/currntruies/Rule%203135%201005.pd . Rule 3180 (Administrative Fees for Indirect Source Review)This rule requires the applicant to submit a fee in addition to an Indirect Source Review Application. The purpose of this fee is to recover the District's cost for the review and management of these applications. More information on the fee is available on the District website at http://www.vallevair.org/rules/currntruies/Rule 3180 1205 pdf. Rule 4002 (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants) In the event that any portion of an existing building will be renovated, partially demolished or removed, the project will be subject to District Rule 4002. Prior to any demolition activity, an asbestos survey of existing structures on the project site may be required to identify the presence of any asbestos containing building material (ACBM). Any identified ACBM having the potential for disturbance must be removed by a certified asbestos contractor in accordance with CAL-OSHA requirements. If you have any questions concerning asbestos related requirements, please contact Ms. Jan Sudomier at (209) 557-6422 or contact CAL-OSHA at (559) 454-1295. The District's Asbestos Requirements Bulletin can be found online at hftp://valleyair.org/busind/comply/asbestosbultn.htm.

The applicant must contact the District's Small Business Assistance Office at (209) 557-6446 to receive additional information/instructions. Rule 4102 (Nuisance) This rule applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air contaminants or other materials. In the event that the project or construction of the project creates a public nuisance, it could be in violation and be subject to District enforcement action.
