PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE

PROPOSED DISTRICT RULE 701

The Governing Board ofthe GreatBasin Unified Air Pollution Control District will conduct a public hearing to

receive comment on proposed District Rule 701 - Air Pollution Episode Plan. The hearing will be conducted

at a regular meeting of the District Governing Board to be held at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, March 3,2074,in

the Mammotr l¿kes Fire Department Training Room (2"d Floor), 3150 Main Street (State Highway 203),

MammothLakes,California 93546.Thepublichearingonthisruleissetforll:30am.Theproposedrulewill

be considered for adoption at this time.

In 1995, the Great Basin Unifred Air Pollution Control District (GBUAPCD) instituted a program to advise the

public when unhealthful levels of particulate pollution occur in the Owens Valley area. Under this program, the

District issues Air Pollution Health Advisories when dust storms from Owens Lake cause Particulate Matter less

than l0 microns (PMl0) concentrations that exceed selected trigger levels.

. Stage 1 Air Pollution Health Advisories are issued when hourly PMl0 levels exceed 400 pglm3. The Stage I

Health Advisory recommends children, the elderly, and people with healt or lung problems refrain from

strenuous outdoor activities in dust-impacted areas.

. Stage 2 Air Pollution Health Advisories are issued when hourly PMl0 levels exceed 800 pg/m3 and

recommends that everyone refrain from strenuous outdoor activities in dust impacted areas.

The intent of this rule is to incorporate these windblown dust event trigger levels for PM 1 0 with additional

trigger levels for windblown Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) and PMl0 from Wildfire Smoke throughout

Alpine, Mono, and Inyo counties into District Rule 701, Air Pollution Episode Plan.

. Stage 1 Air Pollution Health Advisories will be issued when hourly PMl0 levels exceed 400 pglm', PM2.5

levels exceed 150 pglm3 for dust and PM10 levels exceed 100 pglm3 for wildfire smoke.

. Stage 2 Air Pollution Health Advisories will be issued when hourly PMl0 levels exceed 800 pglm3, PM2.5

levels exceed 300 pglm' for dust and PM10 levels exceed 200 pglm3 for wildfire smoke.

The District has prepared a supporting technical document with a summary of the District's Health Advisory

Program, PM2.5 and PMl0 analyses, monitored wildfrre impacts and proposed rule trigger levels. After

adoption, Califomia Air Resources Board (CARB) will forward this plan to United States Environmental

Protection Agency (USEPA) for inclusion in Califomia's State Implementation Plan (SIP).

Copies of the proposed rule and supporting document may be obtained for public review beginning Janua¡y 31,

2014 onthe Distict's website at http://ebuapcd.ore/publicnotice and af the GBUAPCD offrce at 157 Short Street,

on February 18, 2014, will be included in the staff report sent to the Governing Board members. Oral and

written comments will also be taken at the meeting. For further information, contact the District's Board
