Mr. Swanson May 2,2006 <br /> PA-0600211 Page 2 <br /> Rule 4103 (Open Burning) This rule regulates the use of open burning and specifies the types of <br /> materials that may be open burned. Agricultural material shall not be burned when the land use is <br /> converting from agriculture to non-agricultural purposes (e.g., commercial, industrial, institutional, or <br /> residential uses). Section 5.1 of this rule prohibits the burning of trees and other vegetative (non- <br /> agricultural) material whenever the land is being developed for non-agricultural purposes. In the event <br /> that the project applicant burned or burns agricultural material, it would be in violation of Rule 4103 and <br /> be subject to District enforcement action. <br /> Rule 4641 (Cutback, Slow Cure, and Emulsified Asphalt, Paving and Maintenance Operations) If asphalt <br /> paving will be used, then paving operations of this project will be subject to Rule 4641. This rule applies <br /> to the manufacture and use of cutback asphalt, slow cure asphalt and emulsified asphalt for paving and <br /> maintenance operations. <br /> Rule 9510 (Indirect Source Review)This rule was adopted to reduce the impacts of growth in emissions <br /> from all new development in the San Joaquin Valley. Rule 9510 requires applicants subject to the rule to <br /> provide information that enables the District to quantify construction, area and operational PM10 and <br /> NOx emissions, and potentially mitigate a portion of those emissions. Based on the trip generation rates <br /> provided, it appears that the operational emissions from this project are below the District's Indirect <br /> Source Review (Rule 9510) thresholds of 2 tons/year for ROG and NOx. Therefore, this project will not <br /> be subject to the rule. For more information and instruction, please contact the District's ISR staff by <br /> phone at (559) 230-5800 or by email at ISR(aDvalleyair.org. <br /> District staff is available to meet with you and/or the applicant to further discuss the regulatory requirements <br /> that are associated with this project. If you have any questions or require further information, please call me <br /> at (559) 230-5818 or Mr. Dave Mitchell, Planning Manager, at (559) 230-5807 and provide the reference <br /> number at the top of this letter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ssica R.Willis <br /> Air Quality Specialist <br /> Central Region <br /> C: file <br />
