(http://www.arb.ca.gov/regact/regact.htm) covering rules adopted between 1994 to present. The hearing date is also generally the date that the 

California Air Resources Board adopts a resolution in which it approves the measure or amendments to an existing measure.

A-1. Complete List of State Measures

Table A-1 is a list of all measures adopted by CARB from 1990 until the end of 2013. 

This period covers the 18 years prior to the development of the 2007 State Strategy and the 

South Coast 2007 and 2012 Air Quality Management Plans. The table should include any 

substantive rules that would still be generating emissions reductions in the South Coast 

nonattainment area during the 1990-2013 period.

This list does not include the limits on pesticide emissions adopted by the California 

Department of Pesticide Regulation nor the State’s inspection and maintenance program adopted 

by the California Bureau of Automotive Repair.

Measures that are categorized as Not Applicable are either solely administrative (e.g., 

permit fees, state ambient air quality standards), do not address ozone attainment plan precursors

in the South Coast nonattainment area (e.g., asbestos air toxic control measure), or otherwise do 

not affect emissions in the South Coast nonattainment area (e.g., test methods).
