### STAFF REPORT Federal Negative Declarations for Three CTG Source Categories

I. PURPOSE OF STAFF REPORT

A staff report serves several discrete purposes. I ts primary purpose is to provide a summary and background material to the members of the Governing Board. This allows the members of the Governing Board to be fully informed before making any required decision. It also provides the documentation necessary for the Governing Board to make any findings, which are required by law to be made prior to the approval or adoption of a document. In addition, a staff report ensures that the correct procedures and proper docu mentation for approval or adoption of a document have been performed. Finally, the staff r eport provides evidence for defense against legal challenges regarding the propriety of the app roval or adoption of the document.

II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District ( MDAQMD) Governing Board is being requested to conduct a public hearing, make finding s, and then adopt a resolution adopting the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories and directing staff actions. These “Federal Negative Declarations” (FNDs) are differen t from the Negative Declarations associated with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA ). Instead, these FNDs, once adopted by the Governing Board, will serve as official certifi cation to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) that there are no station ary sources or emitting facilities in these categories located within the area designated as no n-attainment for ozone within the MDAQMD.

Adoption of the FNDs will satisfy the specific fede ral requirement described below. Their adoption does not satisfy any other state or federa l requirements imposed upon the District. There are no emission reductions associated with th is action because it does not change any existing rules or regulations.

The Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA) requires areas des ignated non-attainment and classified moderate and above to implement Reasonably Availabl e Control Technology (RACT) for sources subject to Control Technique Guidelines (CT G) documents issued by the USEPA for “major sources” of volatile organic compounds (VOCs ) and oxides of nitrogen (NO x ) which are ozone precursors. For those source categories not represented within the area designated nonattainment for ozone, USEPA requires the submission of a “Negative Declaration” certifying that those sources are not present. These Federal “Nega tive Declarations” are revisions to the State Implementation Plan (SIP). The Federal Negative Declarations for Forty-Four Source Categories was most recently adopted by the MDAQMD on January 22, 2007. The Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories must be adopted to account for three source categories at the request of USEPA. These three so urce categories are: Control of VOC Leaks from Petroleum Refinery Equipment (EPA-450/2-78-036, 6/78, NTIS PB-286-158); Control of VOC Emissions from Manufacture of High-Density Poly ethylene, Polypropylene, and Polystyrene Resins (EPA-450/3-83-008, 11/83); and Control of VOC Fugitive Emissions from2 MDAQMD Fed.

III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends that the Governing Board of the MD AQMD, after conducting a public hearing, adopt the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories. Such action is necessary to satisfy the federal requirements for s ubmission of FNDs for each source category not represented within the District covered by a CT G or which meets the definition of a major

source.

A. REQUIRED ELEMENTS/FINDINGS

This section discusses the State of California stat utory requirements that apply to the adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories (specifically: Control of VOC Leaks from Petroleum Refinery Equipm ent (EPA-450/2-78-036, 6/78, NTIS PB-286-158); Control of VOC Emissions from Manufacture of High-D ensity Polyethylene, Polypropylene, and Polystyrene Resins (EPA-450/3-83-008, 11/83); and Control of VOC Fugitive Emissions from Synthetic Or ganic Chemical Polymer and Resin Manufacturing Equipment (EPA-450/3-83-006, 03/84)). Since this document i s required to be adopted pursuant to public notice and other r equirements under 42 USC 7410(a)(2), the District considers the rule adoption process pu rsuant to Health & Safety (H&S) Code §40702 to be a proper way to meet these requirement s. Therefore, these are actions, that need to be performed, and/or information, that must be provided in order to adopt this document in a procedurally correct manner.

1. State Findings Required for Adoption of Rules & Regulations

Before adopting, amending, or repealing a rule or r egulation, the District Governing Board is required to make findings of nec essity, authority, clarity, consistency, non-duplication, and reference based u pon relevant information presented at the hearing. The information below wa s provided to assist the Board in making these findings.

a. Necessity

The adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories is necessary because those source categories are not represented within the area of the District des ignated nonattainment for ozone and USEPA requires the submiss ion of a FND certifying that those sources are not present. The Federal Negative Declarations for Forty-Four Source Categor ies was most recently adopted by the MDAQMD on January 22, 2007. The Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories is being adopted at the specific request of USEPA to c over three categories not addressed in the previous action.

b. Authority

MDAQMD has the authority pursuant to California H&S Code §40702, 40725-40728 to adopt, amend or repeal rules and regulations and to do such actions that are necessa ry or proper to execute the powers and duties granted to and impose d upon MDAQMD.MDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. 5

Final Staff Report, 09/10/2010

c. Clarity

The adoption is clear in that it is written so that the FND certifying that these types of sources are not present within the District is easily understood.

d. Consistency

The adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories is in harmony with, and not in conflict with or contradictory to any state law or regulation, feder al law or regulation, or court decisions. USEPA has specific ally requested the adoption of a FND for these three source catego ries to cover three categories not addressed in the previous acti on.
e. Non-duplication

The adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories does not impose the same requirements as an existing state or federal law or regulation because federal law requires the adoption and certification of “Negativ e Declarations” for those source categories not represented within the area designated non-attainment for ozone.

f. Reference

The District has the authority pursuant to H&S Code §40702 to adopt, amend or repeal rules and regulations and do such acts as necessary and proper to execute the powers and duti es granted to and imposed upon the District.

g. Public Notice & Comment, Public Hearing

Notice for the public hearing for the proposed adop tion of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories was published July 22, 2010. See Appendix “B” for a co py of the public notice. See Appendix “C” for copies of comments, i f any, and MDAQMD responses.

2. Federal Elements (SIP Submittals, Other Federal Submittals)

Submittals to USEPA are required to include various elements depending upon the type of document submitted and the underlying f ederal law, which requires the submittal. The information below indicates whi ch elements are required for the proposed adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories and how they were satisfied.6 MDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. Final Staff Report, 09/10/2010 a. Satisfaction of Underlying Federal Requirements

The adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories is subject to all the requirements for a SIP submittal because the “Negative Declarations” will be included in the MDAQMD SIP. The criteria for determining compl eteness of SIP submissions are set forth in 40 CFR Part 51, Ap pendix V, 2.0.

b. Public Notice and Comment

Notice for the public hearing for the proposed adop tion of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories was published July 22, 2010. See Appendix “B” for a co py of the public notice.

c. Availability of Document

Copies of the proposed adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories and the accompanying draft staff report was made available to the public on July 8, 2010.

d. Notice to Specified Entities

Copies of the proposed adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories and the accompanying draft staff report was mailed to all affected agenc ies, including but not limited to the California Air Resources Board ( CARB) and USEPA. The proposed action was sent to CARB and US EPA on July 8, 2010.

e. Public Hearing

A public hearing to consider the proposed adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories was held on August 23, 2010.

f. Legal Authority to Adopt and Implement

The MDAQMD has the authority pursuant to H&S Code § 40702 to adopt, amend, or repeal rules and regulations an d to do such acts as may be necessary or proper to execute the duties imposed upon the MDAQMD.

g. Applicable State Laws and Regulations Were Follo wed

Public notice and hearing procedures pursuant to H& S Code §§40725-40728 have been followed. See Section (V)( A)(1) above for compliance with state findings required pursuan t to H&S CodeMDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. 7

Final Staff Report, 09/10/2010 §40727. See Section (V)(B) below for compliance wi th the required analysis of existing requirements pursuant to H&S Code §40727.2. See Section (V)(C) for compliance with e conomic analysis requirements pursuant to H&S Code §40920.6 . See Section (V)(D) below for compliance with provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

B. WRITTEN ANALYSIS OF EXISTING REQUIREMENTS

H&S Code §40727.2 requires air districts to prepare a written analysis of all existing federal air pollution control requirements that app ly to the same equipment or source type as the rule proposed for modification by the distri ct. The proposed adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories will certify FNDs for Control of VOC Leaks from Petroleum Refinery Equipm ent (EPA-450/2-78-036, 6/78, NTIS PB-286-158); Control of VOC Emissions from Manufacture of High-D ensity Polyethylene, Polypropylene, and Polystyrene Resins (EPA-450/3-83-008, 11/83); and Control of VOC Fugitive Emissions from Synthetic Or ganic Chemical Polymer and Resin Manufacturing Equipment (EPA-450/3-83-006, 03/84) are not represented with in the area designated non-attainment for ozone. Although the Federal Negative Declarations for Forty-Four Source Categories was most recently adopted on January 22, 2007, the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories is being adopted at the request of USEPA to cover three categories not addr essed in the previous action.

C. ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

1. General

Adoption of the FNDs will identify three source cat egories listed above not represented within the area designated non-attainme nt. The adoption will have no economic impact.

2. Incremental Cost Effectiveness

Pursuant to H&S Code §40920.6, incremental cost eff ectiveness calculations are required for rules and regulations which are adopte d or amended to meet the California Clean Air Act requirements for Best Avai lable Retrofit Control Technology (BARCT) or “all feasible measures” to co ntrol volatile compounds, oxides of nitrogen or oxides of sulfur.

The proposed adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories is not subject to incremental cost effectiveness c alculations because this rule does not impose BARCT or “all feasible me asures”.

D. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS (CEQA)

Through the process described below, it was determi ned that a Notice of Exemption would be the appropriate CEQA process for the adopt ion of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories.8 MDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. Final Staff Report, 09/10/2010 1. The adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories meets the CEQA definition of "project." They are n ot "ministerial" actions.

2. The adoption of the Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories is exempt from CEQA review because it will not cre ate any adverse impacts on the environment. Because there is no po tential that the adoption might cause the release of additional air contaminants or create any adverse environmental impacts, a Class 8 categorical exempt ion (14 Cal. Code Reg. §15308) applies.

E. SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS

1. Potential Environmental Impacts

There are no potential negative environmental impac ts of compliance with the proposed adoption of the FNDs because the FND merel y certifies that the particular source categories are not located within the District.

2. Mitigation of Impacts

N/A

3. Alternative Methods of Compliance

N/A

F. PUBLIC REVIEW

See Staff Report Section (V)(A)(1)(g) and (2)(b), a s well as Appendix “B”

VI. TECHNICAL DISCUSSION

USEPA required that all non-attainment areas submit an updated RACT SIP Analysis. The purpose of the RACT SIP Analysis is to ensure t hat District Rules adequately address current RACT requirements. MDAQMD review i dentified many source categories that do not have corresponding sources ( major or minor) within the jurisdiction of the MDAQMD. The Federal Negative Declarations for Forty-Four Source Categories was most recently adopted on January 22, 2007 for these source categories. The Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Cate gories was adopted at the request of USEPA to cover three categories not addr essed in the previous action.MDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. 9

E. SIP HISTORY

1. SIP History

a. SIP in the San Bernardino County Portion of MDAQ MD

On July 1, 1993 the MDAQMD was formed pursuant to s tatute. Pursuant to statute it also retained all the rules and regulations of the SBCAPCD until such time as the Governing Board of the MDAQMD wished to adopt, amend or rescind such rules . The MDAQMD Governing Board, at its very first meeting, reaffirmed all the rules and regulations of the SBCAPCD. Sinc e SIP revisions in California are adopted by USEPA as effective in areas which happen to be defined by both air basin designations and the jurisdictional boundaries of local air districts wi thin those air basins, the MDAQMD “inherited” the SBCAPCD SIP whic h was in effect for what is now called the San Bernardino County Portion of MDAB.

b. SIP in the Riverside County (Blythe/Palo Verde V alley) Portion of the MDAQMD

One of the provisions of the legislations which cre ated the MDAQMD allowed areas contiguous to the MDAQMD boundaries and within the same air basin to leave t heir current air district and become a part of the MDAQMD. On July 1, 1994 the area commonly known as the Palo Verde Valley in Riv erside County, including the City of Blythe, left SCAQMD a nd joined the MDAQMD. Since USEPA adopts SIP revisions in Califo rnia as effective within the jurisdictional boundaries of l ocal air districts, when the local boundaries change the SIP as approve d by USEPA for that area up to the date of the change remains as the SIP in that particular area. Upon annexation of the Blythe/Pal o Verde Valley10 MDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. Final Staff Report, 09/10/2010 the MDAQMD acquired the SIP prior to July 1, 1994 t hat was effective in the Blythe/Palo Verde Valley. Therefo re, the SIP history for the Blythe/Palo Verde Valley Portion of the MDAQMD is based upon the rules adopted and approved for th at portion of Riverside County by SCAQMD.

2. SIP Analysis

The Federal Negative Declarations for Forty-Four Source Categories was most recently adopted on January 22, 2007 for these sour ce categories. The Federal Negative Declarations for Three Source Categories, specifically the source categories: Control of VOC Leaks from Petroleum Refinery Equipm ent(EPA450/2-78-036, 6/78, NTIS PB-286-158); Control of VOC Emissions from Manufacture of High-Density Polyethylene, Polypropy lene, and Polystyrene Resins (EPA-450/3-83-008, 11/83); and Control of VOC Fugitive Emissions from Synthetic Organic Chemical Polymer and Resin Manufa cturing Equipment(EPA450/3-83-006, 03/84), are being adopted at the requ est of USEPA to cover three categories not addressed in the previous action.

The MDAQMD has determined that no sources in the th ree source categories listed in Table 1 exist within its jurisdiction.MDAQMD Fed. Neg. Dec. A-1
