San Joaquin Valley <br /> Unified Air Pollution Control District <br /> January 11 , 1994 <br /> Chandler Martin <br /> San Joaquin County JA/y 12 1994 <br /> Community Development Department Coodulvllry <br /> 1810 East Hazelton Avenue <br /> Stockton, CA 95205 �IANINIG,r !!, <br /> Dear Mr. Martin: <br /> Subject: A Minor Subdivision Application to Subdivide a 46.93-Acre Parcel Into <br /> Two Parts. Parcel 1 is to contain 10.0 Acres, and Parcel 2 is to <br /> Contain 36.98 Acres. (MS-93-117) <br /> The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District (SJVUAPCD) has <br /> reviewed the project referenced above and offers the following comments: <br /> San Joaquin Valley's air quality has been designated non-attainment by the EPA <br /> and the California Air Resources Board for the following pollutants, PM10 (fine <br /> particulate matter) and 03 (ozone). The California Clean Air Act (AB2595), <br /> requires areas that are designated nonattainment to reduce emissions 5% annually <br /> until standards are met. <br /> If development eventually results from project approval, it will have the effect of <br /> contributing to the degradation of air quality due to increased traffic, operation of <br /> lawn and garden equipment, and space and water heating if gas-fired appliances <br /> are used. Any increase in air emissions make it more difficult to meet mandated <br /> emissions reductions and air quality standards. <br /> A Negative Declaration is appropriate for this project from an air quality <br /> perspective. However, a concerted effort should still be made to reduce project <br /> related emissions if development occurs, as outlined below: <br /> The following items are rules that have been adopted by the SJVUAPCD to reduce <br /> emissions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required: <br /> David L Crow <br /> Executive Director/Air Pollution Control Officer <br /> 1999 Tuolumne Street.Suite 200•Fresno.CA 93721•(209)a9]-1000•FA%(209)233405] <br /> Northern Region Central Region Southern Region <br /> =230 K ernan Armue.5wte 130•MOn6b.G 95356M Street Su-te 200•Fresno.CA 93]21 2]00 M St(ea.Suite 275.9akershea.G 93301 <br /> 209)5a5-]000•FaF 12091 54 52 l2091 497-1000•Fu 1209)2M 2057 (80516613SU•Fa.;805)8612060 <br />
