San Joaquin Valley <br /> Unified Air Pollution Control District <br /> 0 <br /> June 3, 1994 I W <br /> Richard Larrouy <br /> 31994 <br /> San Joaquin County 'U"ViUivil Y ucrc� ; ,, ,, ,uL I <br /> Community Development Department °LANNING Dll!9ON <br /> 1810 East Hazelton Avenue <br /> Stockton, Ca 95205 <br /> SUBJECT: A MAJOR SUBDIVISION APPLICATION (SU-93-2) <br /> Dear Mr. Larrouy: <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 nonattainment by the EPA and <br /> the California Air Resources Board for the following pollutants, PM10 (fine particulate <br /> matter) and 03 (ozone). The California Clean Air Act (AB2595), requires areas that are <br /> designated nonattainment to reduce emissions 5% annually until standards are met. <br /> A Negative Declaration is appropriate for this project from an air quality perspective. <br /> However, a concerted effort should be made to reduce project emissions when <br /> 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 /> 0 District Rule 4901 - Residential Wood Burning regulates the sale, installation <br /> and transfer of wood burning devices, and establishes a public education and <br /> voluntary wood burning curtailment program intended to reduce emissions of <br /> carbon monoxide and PM10. <br /> • District Rule 4902 - Residential Water Heaters regulates the sale and installation <br /> of natural gas-fired water heaters to limit the emissions of oxides of nitrogen. <br /> David L Grow <br /> Esecutire Director Air Pollution Control Officer <br /> Northern Region Central Region Southern Region <br />
