4.1 – Air Quality Draft Environmental Impact Report February 2021 14800 W. Schulte Road Logistics Center 4.1-18 for construction or operational excess emissions of NOx or PM10—those emissions above the goals identified in Section 6.0 of the rule. Monies collected from this fee are used by the SJVAPCD to fund emissions reduction projects in the SJVAB on behalf of that project. Currently, the SJVAPCD is proposing revisions to Rule 9510 that may affect the applicability mechanism of the ISR rule to ensure that the rule applies consistently throughout San Joaquin Valley, as well as clarification and enhancement of several other aspects of the rule. Rule 9610: State Implementation Plan Credit for Emission Reductions Generated through Incentive Programs Rule 9610 provides an administrative mechanism for the SJVAPCD to receive credit toward SIP requirements for emissions reductions achieved in the SJVAB through incentive programs administered by the SJVAPCD, Un ited States Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service, or CARB. On April 9, 2015, the EPA finalized a limited approval and limited disapproval (for a minor administrative error) of Rule 9610 as a revision to the California SIP. Additional documentation regarding the effectiveness of SJVAPCD’s incentive programs can be found in 2015 Annual Demonstration Report SIP Credit for Emission Reductions Generated Through Incentive Programs (SJVAPCD 2015c). San Joaquin Council of Governments The San Joaquin Council of Governments Board adopted the 2018 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) on June 28, 2018. The RTP/SCS is comprehensive in its response to new federal statues embodies in the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century and state statutes, including SB 375. The RTP/SCS continues to provide a sustainability vision through 2042 that recognizes the significant impact the transportation network has on the region’s public health, mobility, and economic v itality. As the region’s comprehensive long-range transportation planning document, the RTP/SCS serves as a guide for achieving public policy decisions that will result in balanced investments for a wide range of multimodal transportation improvements. The San Joaquin Council of Governments is currently preparing the 2022 RTP/SCS Update, Envision 2050 (SJCOG 2018). County of San Joaquin The County of San Joaquin (County) General Plan Public Health and Safety Element, Air Quality Goal is intended to protect public health and welfare by implementing measures that allow the SJVAPCD to attain federal and state air quality standards. The Public Health and Safety Element sets forth a number of policies and standards to reduce current pollutant emissions and to require new development to include measures to comply with air quality standards. The County’s General Plan Public Health and Safety Element, Air Quality Goal includes the following goal and policies (County of San Joaquin 2016): Goal PHS-5: To protect public health, agricultural crops, scenic resources, and the built and natural environments from air pollution.
