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

The main purpose of the a mendment to Rule 240 wa s to add control measures and standards in effect in

equivalent rules in other districts, such as Sacramento, San Joaquin and South Coast. The original Rule 240 was

adopted initially on October 9, 1997, and d id not contain these newer proven control measures and standards.

Adoption of this amendment establish ed greater uniformity in the Region in the control of Volatile Organic

Compound (VOC) emissions from the surface preparation and cleanup source category

.

The rule amendment applies to all persons in Placer County who engage in the production, repair, maintenance or

servicing of parts, products, tools, machinery or equipment, and storage and disposal of VOC

- containing materials

used in solvent cleaning o perations. Partial or complete exemptions are allowed as listed in Section 104 of the

rule.

The major affect of the proposed amendments is to set new and lower VOC limits for solvent cleaning activities.

These lower limits are consistent with the limits currently in place in Sacramento and other jurisdictions and are

proven to be feasible.

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

II. EFFECT ON EMISSIONS

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

factor(s) and other informat ion. Attach calculation sheet showing how the emission information provided below was determined

Baseline Inventory in the SIP for the Control Measure: NA

Emissions Reduction Commitment in the SIP for the Control Measure: 3.9 tons per day in the region (Sacramento Federal

Ozone Non

- attainment Area

Revised Baseline Inventory (if any):

Revised Emission Reduction Estimate (if developed): The District estimates that th e original rule adoption resulted in a

reduction of 0.6 tons per day of VOCs. The most recent amendment will reduce VOC emissions by an estimated 0.14

tons per day for a total of 0.74 tons per day of reductions. The VOC emission reductions were estimated based on the

year 2005 planning inventory

.

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

planning.
