However, since <br /> the original documents were completed there have been a number of changes to <br /> additional mitigation that may help reduce project related emissions.District Rules and Regulations. The following is a potential list of updated rules and <br /> This project is subject to District Regulation VIII (Fugitive Dust Prohibitions). The <br /> purpose of Regulation VIII is to reduce the amount of fine particulate matter (PM-10) <br /> entrained into the ambient air from man-made sources. Please be advised that the <br /> District's Governing Board approved amendments to Regulation VIII, Rules 8011- <br /> 8061 and 8071-8081; respectively, that became effective on October 1, 2004. Of <br /> particular note are amendments to Rule 8021 (see section 6.3.1); the Dust Control <br /> Plan threshold has changed from 40.0 acres to 10.0 or more acres for residential <br /> sites and 5 acres for nonresidential sites. If a site is 1.0 to less than 10.0 acres <br /> (for residential) and 5 acres (for nonresidential), an owner/operator must provide <br /> written notification to the District at least 48 hours prior to his/her intent to begin <br /> any earthmoving activities (see section 6,4.1). The attached Compliance Assistance <br /> Bulleting (CAB) highlights many of the requirements contained within Regulation Vill. <br /> The CAB is not meant to be all-inclusive, but it can be a useful compliance aid in the <br /> field and office alike.
