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

The revised rule provides an exemption from Phase II vapor recovery for fleets equipped with Onboard Refueling

Vapor Recovery (ORVR). It also provides an exemption from Phase II vapor recovery for E85 (ethanol) fueling

facilities.l A restriction is placed on standing gasoline in Phase I spill containment devices. There is a new

requirement for the daily inspection of hanging hardware and a new requirement for permit holders to submit test

results within 14 days. The effective dat e of the revised rule is April 1, 2009.

VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN

No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment

Discussion: The proposed exemption for ORVR will result in no measurable increase or reduction in ROC emissions in

Ventura County. As noted in the EPA guidance letter of December, 2006, EPA assumes that, when ORVR penetration is

above 95 percent, ROC emissions from the two systems (O RVR and Phase II VR) will be comparable and consistent with

the "widespread use metric" in federal law. In additi on, the ROC emission reduction expected from other proposed

revisions to Rule 70 is considered unmeasurable because t he length and severity of exce ss emission episodes cannot be

measured.
