San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 3 of 9 <br /> District Reference No : 20222572 <br /> December 19, 2022 <br /> Health Risk Assessment . <br /> Prior to performing an HRA , it is strongly recommended that land use agencies/ <br /> project proponents develop and submit for District review a health risk modeling <br /> protocol that outlines the sources and methodologies that will be used to perform the <br /> HRA . This step will ensure all components are addressed when performing the <br /> H RA . <br /> A development project would be considered to have a potentially significant health <br /> risk if the HRA demonstrates that the project - related health impacts would exceed <br /> the District ' s significance threshold of 20 in a million for carcinogenic risk , or 1 . 0 for <br /> either the Acute or Chronic Hazard Indices . <br /> A project with a significant health risk would trigger all feasible mitigation measures . <br /> The District strongly recommends that development projects that result in a <br /> significant health risk not be approved by the land use agency . <br /> The District is available to review HRA protocols and analyses . For HRA submittals <br /> please provide the following information electronically to the District for review : <br /> HRA ( AERMOD ) modeling files <br /> • HARP2 files <br /> • Summary of emissions source locations , emissions rates , and emission factor <br /> calculations and methodologies . <br /> For assistance , please contact the District ' s Technical Services Depariment by : <br /> • Mailing inquiries to : hramodeler (@valleyair . org <br /> • Calling ( 559 ) 230 - 5900 <br /> Recommended Measure : Development projects resulting in TAC emissions should be <br /> located an adequate distance from residential areas and other sensitive receptors in <br /> accordance to CARB ' s Air Quality and Land Use Handbook : A Community Health <br /> Perspective located at https : //ww3 . arb . ca . gov/ch / handbook . pdf . <br /> 3 ) Truck Routinq <br /> Truck routing involves the assessment of which roads Heavy Heavy - Duty ( HH-D ) <br /> trucks take to and from their destination , and the emissions impact that the HHD <br /> trucks may have on residential communities and sensitive receptors . The Project is <br /> for the development of a truck parking facility which has the potential to result in an <br /> increase in HHD truck trips . <br /> The District recommends the County evaluate HHD truck routing patterns for the <br /> Project , with the aim of limiting exposure of residential communities and sensitive <br />
