Dear Mr. Blumenfeld: 

Edmund G. Brown Jr. 

Governor 

Enclosed is a revision to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision 

consists of the adopted Ozone Emergency Episode Plan (Plan) from the Placer County 

Air Pollution Control District (District). Also enclosed is Air Resources Board (ARB) 

Executive Order S-15-005 adopting the Plan as a revision to the SIP. 

On October 23, 2014, U.S.EPA proposed to partially disapprove portions of the 

2014 California Infrastructure SIP including the District requirements relating to an 

emergency episode plan for ozone (79 FR 63350). This SIP submittal corrects the 

deficiency and allows U.S. EPA to move forward with approval of this portion of the 

California Infrastructure SIP. 

To meet the U.S. EPA's criteria for determining that rule submittals are administratively 

and technically complete, we have enclosed an evaluation of the rule's consistency with 

40 CFR 51 and other supporting documentation provided to us by the District. One 

compact disc and one paper copy, each containing the revision in their entirety, are 

enclosed. 

The energy challenge facing California is real. Every Californian needs to take immediate action to reduce energy consumption. 

For a list of simple ways you can reduce demand and cut your energy costs, see our website: http://www.arb.ca.gov.
