RECEIVED DEC 2 1 2005 San Joaquin Valley Community Development Dept, Air Pollution Control District December 19, 2005 Reference No. 0200501742 San Joaquin County Community Development Attn: Kevin Swanson 1810 East Hazelton Avenue Stockton, CA 95205 Subject: PA-0500744 (SA)— 12470 E. Locke Road, Lockeford (APN: 051-320-12) Dear Mr. Swanson: The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (District)has reviewed the project referenced above and offers the following comments: The entire San Joaquin Valley Air Basin is designated non-attainment for ozone and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5). This project would contribute to the overall decline in air quality due to increased traffic and ongoing operational emissions. Preliminary analysis indicates that this project alone would not generate significant air emissions. However, the increase in emissions from this project, and others like it, cumulatively reduce the air quality in the San Joaquin Valley. A concerted effort should be made to reduce project-related emissions as outlined below: The proposed new winery will be subject to the requirements of Rule 4694 (Wine Fermentation and Storage Tanks, adopted by the District's Governing Board on December 15, 2005). The applicant may contact Permit Service Section at (209) 557-6400 to discuss this rule in detail. The applicant may want to read the final draft staff report of Rule 4694 which can be found at: http //www valleyair.org/Workshops/postings/12-15-05-4694/R4694 report PHrev.pdf. The rule itself can be found at http://www.valleyair.org/rules/1 ruleslist.htm. Based on the information provided, the proposed project will be subject to the following District rules. The `,ollo ;ing items arc rules that have been adopted by the District to reduce emiscions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required. This project may be subject to additional District Rules. 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/rules/lruleslist.htm. Reaulation VIII (Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions)- Regulation VIII (Rules 8011-8081) is a series of rules designed to reduce PM10 emissions (predominantly dust/dirt) generated by human activity, including construction, road construction, bulk materials storage, landfill operations, etc. If a non-residential site is 1.0 to less than 5.0 acres, an owner/operator must provide written notification to the District at least 48 hours prior to his/her intent to begin any earthmoving activities as specified in Section 6.4.2 of Rule 8021. A compliance assistance bulletin has been enclosed for the applicant. A template of the District's Construction Notification Form is available at: http://www.vallevair.org/busind/comply/PMIO/forms/ReQ°/20V I11%20Notification°/20-0/2011-17- 2004.pdf.
