Mr. Jared Blumenfeld Regional Administrator U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Air Division, Region 9 75 Hawthorne Street San Francisco, California 94105
Dear Mr. Blumenfeld: The Air Resources Board (ARB) is pleased to submit to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) four local air district Reasonably Available Control Technology State Implementation Plans (RACT SIP) as a revision to the California SIP. The four districts are Placer County Air Pollution Control District; South Coast Air Quality Management District, which has jurisdiction over both the Los Angeles South Coast Air Basin and Coachella Valley Nonattainment Areas; Ventura County Air Pollution Control District, and San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District. These RACT SIPs are for areas designated nonattainment for the 2008 8-hour ozone standard. RACT evaluations and analyses are required for specific stationary sources for which U.S. EPA has published Control Technique Guidelines (CTG) and for major non-CTG stationary sources. U.S. EPA requires districts to review their existing rules for these sources to determine if those rules continue to meet RACT. This SIP submittal consists of the following enclosures:
I. ARB Executive Order S-14-008 adopting the 8-Hour Ozone RACT SIPs; II. Placer County Air Pollution Control District 2014 RACT SIP; III. South Coast Air Quality Management District 2016 RACT SIP; IV. Ventura County Air Pollution Control District 2014 RACT SIP Revision; 

### V. San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District RACT SIP; and VI. Two (2) CDs, each containing electronic copies of each district's adopted plan and supplemental documentation. The electronic copies are exact duplicates of the paper materials provided.
