WHEREAS, the Board directs staff to abide by said procedures for administration and implementation of the Carl Moyer Program; and
WHEREAS, an appropriate public co mment period was allowed prior to the Board’s adoption of the Policies and Proc edures Manual for Administration of the Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standard Attainment Program; and a 30-day public comment period opportunity for hearing ha s been provided prio r to submitting these policy and procedures to EPA; and
WHEREAS, the SCAQMD will ensure th at all projects selected for funding through the Carl Moye r Program will comply with the project criteria and other requirements specified in the Carl Moye r Program Guidelines developed by the California Air Resources Board (CARB); and
WHEREAS, the Southern California Association of Governments has requested that the District Governing Bo ard delay action on the Goods Movement Control Measures (High Speed Transport Syst em and Truck-Only Lanes) to July 13, 2007 in order to allow SCAG to complete any necessary consultation processes; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT the SCAQMD will take all actions necessary to ensure that emissi on reductions resulting fr om projects funded by the Carl Moyer Program will meet U.S. EPA criteria (surplus, quantifiable, enforceable, and permanent for li fe of project) and requirem ents for SIP creditability to meet federal Clean Air Act requirements. The specific commitments that the SCAQMD will meet to ensure the reductions obtained through implementation of the Carl Moyer Program will meet federal Clean Air Act requirements are as follows:

1. The SCAQMD will implement projects funded by the Carl Moyer Program through legally enforceable contra cts between the SCAQMD and the grantee. These contracts will specif y the emission reductions anticipated for the project and describe the actions that the grantee must take to achieve those reductions. The SC AQMD will seek enforcemen t of the terms of the contracts against non-compliant s ources to obtain the agreed-upon reductions or may reallocate any retu rned funds to a new project or use excess reductions from a different pr oject funded by the Carl Moyer Program to obtain the necessary reductions.

2. The SCAQMD will ensure that all emission reductions calculated for projects funded by the Carl Moyer Progr am will be done using established protocols for the Carl Moyer Pr ogram. The SCAQMD will use the quantification protocols specified in th e Carl Moyer Program Guidelines in effect at the time of project award to calculate creditable emission reductions for use in the SIP.

3. The SCAQMD will verify surplu s emission reductions through a comprehensive inspection, monitori ng and reporting program for eachAQMP, and the Statements of Findings and Overriding Considerations and Mitigation Monitoring Plan.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Execu tive Officer is hereby directed to work with CARB a nd the U.S. EPA to ensure exped itious approval of this 2007 AQMP as a single integrated plan for PM2.5 and 8-hour ozone attainment. Furthermore, this plan is only being su bmitted on an integrated PM2.5 and 8- hour ozone basis.

BE IT FURTHER RE SOLVED, the South Coast Air Quality Management District Governing Board directs staff to re quest that CARB formally submit a request to U.S. EPA for voluntary redesignation ( bump-up) of the South Coast Air Basin from a designation of “severe-17” to “extreme” fo r 8-hour ozone and modify the attainment date to June 15, 2024.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the District is also requesting that CARB formally submit a request to U.S. EPA fo r voluntary redesignation of the Coachella Valley Portion of the Air Basin from a desi gnation of “serious” to “severe-15” for 8- hour average ozone and modify the atta inment date to June 15, 2019.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the South Coast Air Quality Management District Governing Board, requ ests that the 2007 AQMP serve as the SIP submittal for the 8-hour Ozone Attainme nt Demonstration Plan including the Reasonable Further Progress Demonstration, Reasonably Availabl e Control Measures (RACM) and Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) determinations for the 8-hour ozone and PM2.5 standards for the S outh Coast Air Basin and Coachella Valley, revision to the Carbon Monoxide Attainment Demonstration Plan for the South Coast Air Basin, revision to the Nitrogen Dioxide Maintenance Plan for the South Coast Air Basin, and the Transportati on Conformity Budgets for th e South Coast Air Basin and Coachella Valley.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that th e Executive Officer is hereby directed to forward a copy of this Resolution, the 2007 AQMP as am ended by the final changes (including all documents listed in Attachment 1 to this Resolution), the emissions budgets as inco rporated in the 2007 AQMP, and th e Final Program Environmental Impact Report on the 2007 AQMP to CARB, and to request that the 2007 AQMP be forwarded to the U.S. EP A for approval as part of the State Implementation Plan.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the District Governing Board directs the Executive Officer to release a 30-day no tice to adopt the la test transportation conformity budgets reflecting policies adopt ed at the public h earing, for adoption on July 13, 2007.BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the District's Governing Board directs the Executive Officer to release a 30-day notice to consider such measures for final adoption on July 13, 2007 and until such time as such measures are finally adopted, the primary control strategy relie s on the proposed CARB measures identified in Table 4-6A to achieve an additional 22 tons per da y of NOx beyond the total minimum emission reduction commitment.
