Mo Nafef June 30,2006 PA-0600348(MS); 19801 S.Brennan Ave. Page 2 contact Mr. Joe Avila of this office at (559)230-5951, Ms. Jan Sudomier at (209) 557-6422, Mr. Sherman Yount at (661) 326-6933 or contact CAL-OSHA at (559)454-1295. The District's Asbestos Requirements Bulletin can be found online at http.://valleyaiL._orq/busind/comply/aisbestosbultn.htm. Rule 4102(Nuisance)This rule applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air contaminants or other materials. In the event that the project or construction of the project creates a public nuisance, it could be in violation and be subject to District enforcement action. Rule 4103 (Open Burning)This rule regulates the use of open burning and specifies the types of materials that may be open burned. Agricultural material shall not be burned when the land use is converting from y agriculture to non-agricultural purposes (e.g., commercial, industrial, institutional, or residential uses). Section 5.1 of this rule prohibits the burning of trees and other vegetative(non-agricultural)material whenever the land is being developed for non-agricultural purposes. In the event that the project applicant burned or burns agricultural material, it would be in violation of Rule 4103 and be subject to District enforcement action. Rule 4601 (Architectural Coatings)This rule limits volatile organic compounds from architectural coatings by specifying architectural coatings storage, clean up and labeling requirements. Rule 4641 (Cutback, Slow Cure, and Emulsified Asphalt, Paving and Maintenance Operations) If asphalt paving will be used, then paving operations of this project will be subject to Rule 4641. This rule applies to the manufacture and use of cutback asphalt, slow cure asphalt and emulsified asphalt for paving and maintenance operations. Rule 4901 (Wood Burning Fireplaces and Wood Burning Heaters)This rule limits PM10 and PM2.5 emissions from residential development. Construction plans for residential developments may be affected by section 5.3, specifically: • 5.3.1 No person shall install a wood burning fireplace in a new residential development with a density greater than two(2)dwelling units per acre. • 5.3.2 No person shall install more than two(2) EPA Phase 11 Certified wood burning heaters per acre in any new residential development with a density equal to or greater than three (3) dwelling units per acre. • 5.3.3 No person shall install more than one (1)wood burning fireplace or wood burning heater per dwelling unit in any new residential development with a density equal to or less than two(2)dwelling units per acre. More information about Rule 4901 can be found on our website at www.valleyair.org. For compliance assistance, please contact Mr. Wayne Clarke, Air Quality Compliance Manager, at (559).230-5968. The District encourages innovation in measures to reduce air quality impacts. There are a number of features that could be incorporated into the design/operation of this project to provide additional reductions of the overall level of emissions. (Note: Some of the measures may already exist as San Joaquin County development standards. Any measure selected should be implemented to the fullest extent possible.) The suggestions listed below should not be considered all-inclusive and remain options that the agency with the land-use authority should consider for incorporation into the project. + Large canopy trees should be carefully selected and located to protect the building(s)from energy consuming environmental conditions, and to shade 50% of paved areas within 15 years. Structural soil should be used under paved areas to improve tree growth. For information on Structural Soil see http:/1www.hort.cornell.edu/uhi/outreach/csc/. For information on Tree Selection see http://www.ufei.orgl. For Urban Forestry see http://www.coolcommunities.org, http:I/wcufre.ucdavis.edu and http://www.lgc.org/bocikstore/energy/downloads/siv tree guide]ines.pdf. • As many energy conserving and emission reducing features as possible should be included in the project. Energy conservation measures include both energy conservation through-design and operational energy conservation. Examples include (but are not limited to): - Increased energy efficiency(above California Title 24 Requirements)
