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 and 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

in clude 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 Guidan ce Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule Deficiencies (Little Blue Book, August 21, 2001) to ensure that they contain no elements which will result in disapproval by EPA.

Attached Attached N/A

RULE EVALUATION FORM: See instructions for co mpleting 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 ha ve not been previously

submitted to EPA. EPA methods used in other media such as SW846 for solid waste are not automatically approved for air pollution applications. Submittal

of test methods that are not EPA

- approved should include the information and

f ollow 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 affects large sources ( > 100 TPY) in an attainment area for SO 2, 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 SI P 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 used, 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 includ es, for example, demonstrating that exemptions or emission limits less stringent than the presumptive RACT (e.g., a CTG) meet
EPA’s 5 percent policy, and demonstrating that all source categories exempted from a RACM/BACM rule are de minimis according to EP A’s RACM/BACM

policy.

ADDITIONAL MATERIALS : Provide District staff reports and any other supporting information concerning development of the rule or rule changes.
This information should explain the basis for all li mits and thresholds contained

in the rule.
