San Joaquin Valley <br /> Unified Air Pollution Control District <br /> November 20, 1997 <br /> Kerry SullivanSan Joaquin Joaquin County <br /> Community Development Department NOV 2 4 1997 <br /> Development Services Division :., <br /> 1810 East Hazelton Avenue t Ofnf Unliy Luwv`;i; f ?a��j Dem <br /> Stockton, CA 95205 <br /> SUBJECT: SITE APPROVAL FOR RELIGIOUS ASSEMBLY (SA-97-58) <br /> Dear Ms. Sullivan: <br /> The San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District appreciates the opportunity <br /> to review the proposed project and offers the following comments: <br /> The San Joaquin Valley's air quality has been designated nonattainment by the EPA <br /> and by the Air Resources Board (ARB) for 03 (ozone) and PM-10 (fine particulate <br /> matter, dust). The Federal Clean Air Act (CAA) and the California Clean Air Act require <br /> areas that are designated nonattainment to reduce emissions until standards are met. <br /> Based on the information provided, it appears that this project will have a less-than- <br /> significant impact on the ambient air quality. Therefore, a negative declaration is <br /> appropriate from an air quality perspective. However, the construction phase of this <br /> project can generate emission from the movement of soil, use of heavy equipment, bulk <br /> materials handling, asphalt paving and other related activities. As a result, this project <br /> is subject to District Regulation VIII (Fugitive Dust Prohibitions). The purpose of <br /> Regulation VIII is to reduce the amount of fine particulate matter (PM-1 u) entrained into <br /> the ambient air from man-made sources. The attached Synopsis highlights many of the <br /> requirements contained within Regulation VIII. The Synopsis is not meant to be ail <br /> inclusive, but it can be a useful compliance aid in the field and office alike. <br /> Please feel free to contact me at (209)545-7000 if you have any questions. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> r %�e c-C) <br /> Tramer Bettencourt David L.
