Dear Mr. Nastri: 

Enclosed are revisions to the State of California Implementation Plan for Achieving and 

Maintaining the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (SIP). Two compact discs and 

two paper copies, each containing the revisions in their entirety,. are enclosed. 

These revisions consist of adopted and amended rules of the following air quality 

management and air pollution control districts (districts): 

Placer County Air Pollution Control District 

San Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District 

Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District 

South Coast Air Quality Management District 

Ventura County Air Pollution Control District 

Yolo-Solano Air Quality Management District 

Also enclosed is Air Resources Board (ARB) Executive Order S-09-001 adopting the 

districts' rules as revisions to the SIP. The districts are authorized to adopt and enforce 

the rules by California Health and Safety Code section 40001. ARB is authorized to 

adopt the rules as revisions to the SIP by Health and Safety Code section 39601, 

39602, and 41650 through 41652. Enclosure A lists the specific rules that were 

adopted and amended by the districts and that have been adopted as revisions to the 

SIP by ARB through Executive Order S-09-001. 

To meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) criteria for determining 

that rule submittals are administratively and technically complete, we have enclosed 

evaluations of the effects of the rules on emissions, evaluations of the rules' consistency 

with 40 CFR 51, and other supporting documentation provided to us to date by the 

The energy challenge facing California is real. Every Californian needs to take immediate action to reduce energy consumption.

districts. We have made every reasonable effort to obtain from the districts all 

documentation necessary to comply with U.S. EPA's SIP Completeness Policy. 

We understand that, according to section 11 0(k)(1 )(B) of the federal Clean Air Act, 

U.S. EPA will determine within 60 days of the Administrator's receipt of a SIP revision, 

but no later than six months after the date by which the State is required to submit the 

revision, whether the rule packages within the revision are adequately complete to 

review for approvability. ARB staff may receive additional supporting documentation 

from the districts within the next few months. We will, of course, forward those 

additional materials to you. 

If you have any questions or would like to discuss these SIP revisions, please contact 

Mr. Jorge Fernandez, Chief, Program Evaluation Branch, at (916) 445-7800. 

Sincerely,
