SIP COMPLETENESS CHECKLIST

(Electronic Format)

*** TO BE COMPLETED BY DISTRICT AND RETURNED TO ARB ***

All rules submitted to the EPA as State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions must be supported by certain information an d documentation for the rule packages to be deemed complete for review by the EPA. Rules will not be evaluated for approvability by the EPA unless the submittal packages are complete. To assist you in determining that all necessary

materials are included in rules packages sent to the ARB for submittal to the EPA, please fill out the following form and include it with the rule package you send ARB. See the ARB's Guidelines on the Implementation of the 40 CFR 51,
Appendix V , for a more detailed explanation than is provided here. Adopted rules and rule amendments should be checked against U.S. EPA's Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule Deficiencies (Little Blue Book, August 21, 2001) to ensure that they contain no elements which will res ult in disapproval by EPA.

COMPLETE COPY OF THE RULE: Provide an unmarked copy of the entire rule

as ado pted or amended by your District Board.

UNDERLINE AND STRIKEOUT COPY OF THE RULE : If an amended rule,

provide a complete copy of the rule indicating in underline and strikeout format

all language wh ich has been added, deleted, or changed since the rule was last

adopted or amended.

COMPLETE COPY OF THE REFERENCED RULE(S): For any rule which includes language specifically referencing another rul e, a copy of that other rule must also be submitted, unless it has already been submitted to EPA as part of a previous SIP submittal.

PUBLIC NOTICE EVIDENCE: Include a copy of the local newspaper cl ipping certification(s), stating the date of publication, which must be at least 30 days before the hearing. As an alternative, include a copy of the actual published notice of the public hearing as it appeared in the local newspaper(s). In this

case, how ever, enough of the newspaper page must be included to show the date of publication. The notice must specifically identify by title and number
each rule adopted or amended.

RESOLUTION/MINUTE ORDER: Provide the Board Clerk certified resolution or minute order. This document must include certification that the hearing was held in accordance with the information in the public notice. It must also list

Note: All documents and forms should be in electronic format.

Attached Attached N/A

RULE EVALUATION FORM: See instructions for completing the Rule Evaluation Form and the accompanying sample form.

NON

- EPA TEST METHODS: Attach all test methods that are referenced in your rule that do not appear in 40 CFR 51, 60, 61, 63, or have not been previously

submitted to EPA. EPA methods used in other media such as SW846 for solid

wa ste are not automatically approved for air pollution applications. Submittal of

test methods that are not EPA

- approved should include the information and follow the procedure described in Region 9’s “Test Method Review & Evaluation

Process.”

MODELING SUPPORT: Provide if appropriate. In general, modeling support is not required for VOC and NOx rules to determine their impacts on ozone levels. Modeling is required where a rule is a relaxation that a ffects large sources (

> 100 TPY) in an attainment area for SO2, directly emitted PM10, CO, or NOx (for NO2 purposes). In cases where EPA is concerned with the impact on air quality of rule revisions which relax limits or cause a shift in emission patterns in a nonattainment area, a reference back to the approved SIP will be sufficient provided the approved SIP accounts for the relaxation and provided the approved SIP used the current EPA modeling guidelines. If current EPA modeling guidelines were not use d, then new modeling may be required.

ECONOMIC AND TECHNICAL JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVIATIONS FROM EPA

POLICIES : The District staff report or other information included with the

submittal should discuss all potential relaxations or deviations from RACT, RACM, BACT, BACM, enforceability, attainment, RFP, or other relevant EPA requirements. This includes, for example, demonstrating that exemptions or emission limits less stringent than the presumptive RAC T (e.g., a CTG) meet EPA’s 5 percent policy, and demonstrating that all source categories exempted from a RACM/BACM rule are de minimus according to EPA’s RACM/BACM
policy.

ADDITIONAL MATERIALS : Pro vide District staff reports and any other supporting information concerning development of the rule or rule changes. This information should explain the basis for all limits and thresholds contained in

the rule.CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD

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

Rule 80 2 is one of a series of seven rules which together form Regulation VIII, Fugitive Dust Control. On August 1 1,

2004 the Imperial County was redesignated as a "serious"non attainment area for PM10. This rule, as an integral

part of regulation VIII, was adopted to help fullfill the requirement of Best Available Control Measures (BACM.) Rule

80 2 applies to outdoor

handling, storage, and transport of bulk material. This rule sets 20% opacity limitations

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

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

.

Net Effect on Emissions: Increase Decrease N/A

Emission Reduction Commitment in SIP for this Source Category: 0.13 tons/day

Inventory Year Used to Calculate Changes in Emissions: 2004 Area Affected: ICAPCD

Future Year Control Profile Estimate (Provide information on as many years as po ssible) : Rule 802 applies to the handling, storage, and transport of bulk materials. There is not an explicit inventory category for bulk

materials, although it can be assumed that the majority of handling, storage, and transport of these mat erials occur at

mineral processing facilities and, to some extent, at construction sites. It is assumed that 10 percent of the emissions from

mineral processing facilities are related to bulk materials. Wetting of bulk material piles and transfer points has an estimated

control efficiency of 50 percent. Emission reductions from transfer controls have not been estimated, but most mineral

processing plants are operating under ICAPCD permits that require control at major transfer points.CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD
