Baseline Inventory in the SIP for the Control Measure: 0.7 tons VOC per day

Emissions Reduction Commitment in the SIP for the Control Measure: 0.1 tons VOC per day

Revised Baseline Inventory (if any): 9.6 tons per day

Revised Emission Reduction Estimate (if developed): 3.9 tons per day

Note that the district’s input to the Rule Evaluation Form will not be used as input to the ARB’s emission forecasting and 

planning.

III. SOURCES/ATTAINMENT STATUS

District is: Attainment Nonattainment Split

Approximate Total Number of Small (<100 TPY) Sources Affected by this Amendment: N/A

Percent in Nonattainment Area: N/A%

Number of Large (> 100 TPY) Sources Controlled: N/A Percent in Nonattainment Area: N/A%

Name(s) and Location(s) (city and county) of Large (> 100 TPY) Sources Controlled by Rule (Attach additional sheets as 

necessary): N/A

IV. EMISSION REDUCTION TECHNOLOGY

Does the Rule Include Emission Limits that are Continuous? Yes No

If Yes, Those Limits are in Section(s) 5.0 of the Rule.

Other Methods in the Rule for Achieving Emission Reductions are: For all sources subject to this rule, except composting 

facilities with throughput greater than 100,000 wet tons per year, management practices are expected to yield a 10 - 20% 

reduction in emissions. For composting facilities with throughput greater than 100,000 wet tons per year, emission 

reductions will be through the use of a VOC emission control system with a control efficiency of at least 80% by weight.

V. OTHER REQUIREMENTS

The Rule Contains:

Emission Limits in Section(s): 5.0 Work Practice Standards in Section(s): 5.0

Recordkeeping Requirements in Section(s): 6.0 Reporting Requirements in Section(s): 6.0

VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN

 No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment

Discussion: The adoption of Rule 4565 is a control measure in the District's Extreme Ozone Attainment Demonstration 

Plan. This measure, in conjunction with the other control measures in this plan, was expected to help the District attain the 

federal 1-hour ozone standard. After the plan was adopted in October 2004, the 1-hour ozone standard was recinded by

US EPA . However, the District is still required to implement the control measures in the 1-hour ozone plan, since the 

District was also classified as in non-attainment with respect to the 8-hour ozone standard, the replacement for the 1-hour 

standard.
