0 San Joaquin Valley REerEVED Air Pollution Control District JUL 0 6 2006 Community Development Dept June 30, 2006 Reference No. C200601484 Mo Hatef San Joaquin County Community Development Dept. 1810 East Hazelton Avenue Stockton, CA 95205 Subject: PA-0600348 (MS); 19801 S. Brennan Ave. Dear Mo Hatef: 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). Subdividing three parcels into eight parcels by itself will not have an impact on air quality; however, development of the property would contribute to the overall decline in air quality due to construction activities in preparation of the site, and ongoing traffic and other operational emissions. The Tentative Parcel Map and Minor Subdivision Application suggest that eight single-family residences may be developed on 40+-acre lots. Activity of this nature may be subject to the following District Rules. The following items are rules that have been adopted by the District to reduce emissions throughout the San Joaquin Valley, and are required. This project may be subject to additional District Rules not enumerated below. 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/1 ruleslist.htm. Regulation VIII (Fugitive PM10 Prohibitions) Rules 8011-8081 are designed to reduce PM10 emissions (predominantly dust/dirt) generated by human activity, including construction and demolition activities, road construction, bulk materials storage, paved and unpaved roads, carryout and trackout, landfill operations, etc. The District's compliance assistance bulletin for construction sites can be found at htti)://www.vallevair.org/busind/coml)ly/PM10/Re _q%20VIII%20CABpdf. If a residential project is 10.0 or more acres in area or will include moving, depositing, or relocating more than 2,500 cubic yards per day of bulk materials on at least three days, a Dust Control Plan must be submitted as specified in Section 6.3.1 of Rule 8021. Construction activities shall not commence until the District has approved the Dust Control Plan. A template of the District's Dust Control Plan is available at htt ://www.valle air.or /busind/com I /PM10/forms/DCP-Form%20-%2012-01-2005.doc. Rule 4002 (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants) In the event that any portion of an existing building will be renovated, partially demolished or removed, the project will be subject to District Rule 4002.
