Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report <br /> Gill Medical Center Project <br /> be used for penetrating prime coat, dust palliative, or other paving: rapid cure and medium cure <br /> cutback asphalt, slow cure asphalt that contains more than 0.5 percent of organic compound <br /> which evaporates at 500°F or lower, and emulsified asphalt containing VOC in excess of 3 percent <br /> which evaporates at 500°F or lower. <br /> Regulation VIII (Fugitive PM,o Prohibitions), Rules 8021-8071, Fugitive PM,o Prohibitions. <br /> The purpose of these rules is to limit airborne particulate emissions associated with construction, <br /> demolition, excavation, extraction, and other earthmoving activities, as well as with open <br /> disturbed land and emissions associated with paved and unpaved roads. Accordingly, these rules <br /> include specific measures to be employed to prevent and reduce fugitive dust emissions from <br /> anthropogenic sources. <br /> Regulation IX (Mobile and Indirect Sources), Rule 9510, Indirect Source Review.This rule is <br /> the result of state requirements outlined in California Health and Safety Code Section 40604 and <br /> the SIP.The air district's SIP commitments were originally contained in the SJVAPCD's 2003 PM,o <br /> Plan and Extreme Ozone Attainment Demonstration Plans,which presented the SJVAPCD's <br /> strategy to reduce PM,o and NO,, in order to reach the ambient air pollution standards on <br /> schedule, which had been 2010.The plans quantify the reduction from current SJVAPCD rules and <br /> proposed rules, as well as state and federal regulations, and then model future emissions to <br /> determine whether the SJVAPCD may reach attainment for applicable pollutants.This rule will <br /> reduce emissions of NOX and PM10 from new development projects that attract or generate motor <br /> vehicle trips. In general, new development contributes to the air pollution problem in the SJVAB <br /> by increasing the number of vehicles and vehicle miles traveled.Although newer, cleaner <br /> technology is reducing per-vehicle pollution, the emissions increase from new development <br /> partially offsets emission reductions gained from technology advances. <br /> Indirect Source Review applies to larger development projects that have not yet gained discretionary <br /> approval.A discretionary permit is a permit from a public agency, which requires some amount of <br /> deliberation by that agency, including the potential to require modifications or conditions on the project. <br /> In accordance with this rule, developers of larger residential, commercial, and industrial projects are <br /> required to reduce smog-forming NOXand PM10 emissions from their projects' baselines as follows <br /> (SJVAPCD 2017): <br /> 20 percent of construction NOX exhaust <br /> 45 percent of construction PM10 exhaust <br /> 33 percent of operational NO,, over 10 years <br /> 50 percent of operational PM10 over 10 years <br /> These reductions are intended to be achieved through incorporation of on-site reduction measures. If, <br /> after implementation of on-site emissions reduction measures project emissions still exceed the minimum <br /> baseline reduction, the Indirect Source Review requires a project applicant to pay an off-site fee to the <br /> SJVAPCD, which is then used to fund clean-air projects within the air basin. <br /> Air Quality 4.5-11 October 2021 <br />
