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

The amendment of Rule 4570 will result in emission r eductions from CAFs and utilization of new science on

emissions. The regulatory threshold has been lowered to include medium dairies and poultry CAFs. Many of the

tables have been revised and enhanced to specify mandated m easures in high emission source categories such

as feed, silage and housing, while still maintaining flexib ility to accommodate the variability of individual operators

and facilities. Control requirement tables have been strengthened and streamlined, requiring more mandatory

measures that are feasible. Mitigati on measures from all categories of CA Fs, which were determined not to be as

effective as other measures, or either not technologically feasible or cost effective, were removed from rule

language.

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

Baseline Inventory in the SIP for the Control Measure: 55 tons/day in 2012, 67 tons/day in 2023 (summer season)

Emissions Reduction Commitment in the SIP for the Control Measure: 6.7 tons/day in 2012, 22.9 tons/day in 2023

(summer season)

Revised Baseline Inventory (if any): 122. 4 tons/day in 2012, 154 tons/day in 2023

Revised Emission Reduction Estimate (if developed): 25.2 tons/day in 2012, 31.8 tons/day in 2023

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) N/A of the Rule.

Other Methods in the Rule for Achieving Emission R eductions are: Work practices, see Section 5.0

**V. OTHER REQUIREMENTS** 

The Rule Contains:

Emission Limits in Section(s): N/A Work Practice Standards in Section(s): 5.5, 5.6

Recordkeeping Requirements in Section(s): 7.0 Reporting Requirements in Section(s): 5.1.3, 5.25/1/2002 CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD

**VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN**

No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment

Discussion: While no single rule will achieve attainment for the Valley, the adoption of Rule 4570 satisfies control

measure commitments in the 2007 Ozone Plan, adopted on Apr il 30, 2007, and will achieve even more reductions than

committed to in the SIP.
