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

The amendment to Rule 1150.1 – Control of Gaseous E missions from Municipal Solid Waste Landfills,

incorporated provisions of the California Air Resou rces Board’s (CARB) landfill rule (CCR Title 17 sub chapter 10,

article 4, subarticle 6, Methane Emissions from Mun icipal Solid Waste Landfills) to include control of methane, a

greenhouse gas, as part of the previous control req uirements for landfill gases, including volatile or ganic

compounds. The amendment also helps local landfill s more efficiently comply with various emissions re porting

requirements. In addition, the amendment also lowe rs the emissions limit for landfill control systems from 50 to 25

parts per million by volume (ppmv), consistent with the state rule and reflective of current operating data from

District landfill operators. Finally, the amendment improves enforceability, clarifies operational sta ndards for

existing landfill control systems and eliminates du plicate recordkeeping and reporting.
