Ms.Allen 1%, _11 October 31, 2005 <br /> PA 0500699(GP) (Pre-application) Page 6 <br /> II engines have significantly less NOx and PM emissions compared to uncontrolled engines. To find <br /> engines certified by the CARB, see htti)://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/offroad/cert/cert.php, This site lists <br /> engines by type, then manufacturer. The"Executive Order"shows what Tier the engine is certified as. <br /> For more information on heavy-duty engines, please contact Mr. Kevin McCaffrey, Air Quality <br /> Specialist, at(559)230-5831. <br /> In addition to the above measures, the District has entered into Air Quality Mitigation Agreements <br /> (Mitigation Agreement) with several developers. These agreements require the District and the applicant <br /> to quantify operational emissions, and identify on-site mitigation to reduce the proposed project's net <br /> impact on air quality. The developer commits to providing funding on a per ton of emissions basis to the <br /> District to purchase emission reductions through its grant and incentive programs to fully mitigate the net <br /> emissions. The District commits to reduce the net emissions and to manage and monitor the emission <br /> reduction projects over time. The District asks that developers interested in a Mitigation Agreement meet <br /> with District staff to discuss the specifics of the project and the contract. District staff is available to meet <br /> with project proponents to discuss Mitigation Agreements for specific projects. For more information, or <br /> questions concerning this topic, please call Mr. Dave Mitchell, Planning Manager, at(559) 230-5800. <br /> District staff is available to meet with you and/or the applicant to further discuss the regulatory <br /> requirements that are associated with this project. If you have any questions or require further <br /> information, please call me at (559)230-5800 or Mr. Hector R. Guerra, Senior Air Quality Planner, at(559) <br /> 230-5820 and provide the reference number at the top of this letter. <br /> Sincerely, n' <br /> Georgia Stewart <br /> Air Quality Specialist <br /> Central Region <br /> C: File <br />
