District: Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District 

Rule No(s): 466 Date adopted/Amended/Rescinded: Amended October 28, 2010 

Rule Title(s): Solvent Cleaning 

Date Submitted to ARB: December 17, 2010 

If an Amended Rule, Date Last Amended (or Adopted): Amended September 25, 2008 

Is the Rule Intended to be Sent to the U.S. EPA as a SIP Revision? Yes No (If No, do not complete remainder of form)

Narrative Summary of New Rule or Rule Changes: New Rule Amended Rule 

The adopted amendments exempt sanitizing products which are labeled and applied to food-contact surfaces 

that are used to process dry and low-moisture food products and are not rinsed prior to contact with food. Such 

sanitizers are essential in preventing contamination by salmonella and other pathogens in dry and low moisture 

food products. The amendments were necessary because VOC-compliant sanitizers are not available. 

Pollutant(s) Regulated by the Rule (Check): ROG (NOx) SO2 

 (CO) PM TAC (name): 

II. EFFECT ON EMISSIONS 

Complete this section ONLY for rules that, when implemented, will result in quantifiable changes in emissions. Attach reference(s) for emission factor(s) 

and other information. Attach calculation sheet showing how the emission information provided below was determined. 

Net Effect on Emissions: Increase Decrease N/A 

Emission Reduction Commitment in SIP for this Source Category: The 2009 SIP included a commitment to reduce VOC 

emissions from surface preparation and cleanup solvents, including Rule 466, by 0.59 tpd from the Sacramento 

district in 2018. Surface preparation and cleanup solvents are included in multiple rules. The increase in emissions 

due to the Rule 466 amendments is insignificant (0.005 tpd) and does not change the estimated reduction from this 

control measure. 

Inventory Year Used to Calculate Changes in Emissions: 2018 Area Affected: Sacramento County

Baseline Inventory in the SIP for the Control Measure: 2.2 tpd from the Sacramento district 

Emissions Reduction Commitment in the SIP for the Control Measure: 0.59 tpd from the Sacramento district 

Revised Baseline Inventory (if any): N/A 

Revised Emission Reduction Estimate (if developed): 0.59 tpd from the Sacramento district 

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: 2

Percent in Nonattainment Area: 100% 

Number of Large (> 100 TPY) Sources Controlled: 0 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) 301 of the Rule. 

Other Methods in the Rule for Achieving Emission Reductions are: Section 304 specifies that a control device may be 

used as an alternative to complying with the emissions limits of Section 301. The control device must have a control 

device efficiency of at least 95% and a collection efficiency of at least 90%. 

V. OTHER REQUIREMENTS 

The Rule Contains: 

Emission Limits in Section(s): 301 Work Practice Standards in Section(s): 302-303 

Recordkeeping Requirements in Section(s): 501 Reporting Requirements in Section(s): N/A

VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN 

 No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment 

Discussion: The increase in emissions due to the amendments is insignificant and does not impact RFP or attainment.
