Ms. Hayes August 22, 2005 <br /> PA-0500509 Paget <br /> Rule 4102 (Nuisance) applies to any source operation that emits or may emit air contaminants or <br /> other materials. In the event that the project or construction of the project creates a'public nuisan_ce; it," <br /> could be in violation and be subject to District enforcement action. <br /> Rule 4103 (Open Burning) regulates the burning of agricultural material. Agricultural material shall <br /> not be burned when the land use is converting from agriculture to nonagricultural purposes. In the <br /> event that the project burned or burns agricultural material, it would be in violation of Rule 4103 and <br /> be subject to District enforcement action. <br /> Rule 4601 (Architectural Coatings) limits volatile organic compounds from architectural coatings. This <br /> rule specifies architectural coatings storage, clean up and labeling requirements. <br /> Rule 4641 (Cutback, Slow Cure, and Emulsified Asphalt, Paving and Maintenance Operations). If <br /> asphalt paving will be.used, then .paving operations of this project will be subject to Rule 4641. This <br /> rule applies to the manufacture and use-of cutback asphalt,.slow cure asphalt and emulsified asphalt <br /> for paving and maintenance operations: <br /> Rule 4901 (Wood Burning Fireplaces and Wood Burning Heaters) limits PM10 and PM2.5 emissions <br /> from residential development. .Construction plans for residential developments may affected by <br /> section 5.3, specifically: <br /> §5.3 Limitations on Wood Burning Fireplaces or Wood Burning Heaters in New Residential Developments. <br /> Beginning January 1, 2004, <br /> 5.3.1 No person shall install a wood burning fireplace in a new residential development with a density greater <br /> than two(2)dwelling units per acre. <br /> 5.3.2 No person shall install more than two (2) EPA Phase II Certified wood burning heaters per acre in any new <br /> residential development with a density equal to or greater than three (3) dwelling units per acre. <br /> 5.3.3 No person shall install more than one (1)wood burning fireplace or wood burning heater per dwelling unit <br /> in any new residential development with a density equal to or less than two (2)dwelling units per acre. <br /> More information about Rule 4901 can be found at our website- www.valleyair.org. For compliance <br /> assistance, please contact Mr. Wayne Clarke, Air Quality Compliance Manager, at 230-5968. <br /> Rule 4902 (Residential Water Heaters) limits emission of NOx from residential developments. <br /> The District encourages innovation in measures to reduce air quality impacts. There are a number of <br /> features that could be incorporated into the design/operation of this project to provide additional reductions <br /> of the overall level of emissions. (Note: Some of the measures may already exist as County development <br /> standards. Any measure selected should be implemented to the fullest extent possible.) The suggestions <br /> listed below should not be considered all-inclusive and remain options that the agency with the land-use <br /> authority should consider: <br /> • Trees should be carefully selected and located to protect the building(s) from energy consuming <br /> environmental conditions, and to shade paved areas. Trees should be selected to shade paved areas <br /> that will shade 50% of the area within 15 years. Structural soil should be used under paved areas to 1 <br /> improve tree growth. A brochure has been included for the applicant. <br /> For Structural Soil see http://www.hort.c6rnell.edu/uhi/outreach/csc/ <br /> For Tree Selection see http://www.ufgLorg/ <br /> For Urban Forestry see htto://www.coolcommunities.orci http://wcufre.ucdavis.edu <br /> bitp://www.lgc.orQ/bookstore/energyLdownloads/siv tree auidelines.pdf <br /> gyp; <br /> I <br /> 5 <br />
