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

To fulfill federal Reasonably Available Control Tec hnology (RACT) requirements for volatile organic co mpounds (VOC) which are ozone precursors. Amended rule cha nges include: - Exemptions were added for low use operations. - Fountain solution category and subcategories w ere modified, and applicable VOC content limits wer e lowered. - Prohibition of fountain solutions containing a lcohol in coldest web offset lithographic presses w as added. - VOC content limits for Sign Ink/Coating and Ex treme Performance Ink/Coating subcategories were lo wered. - Add-on control equipment requirements for Heat set Web Offset Lithographic or Letterpress operatio ns that prior to controls have a potential to emit 25 tons of VOC per year were added. - Combined overall capture and control system ef ficiency requirement was added rather than separate control and capture efficiency requirements.

- Some solvent cleaners VOC content limits and V OC composite partial vapor pressure limits were low ered. - Rule sections which either expired or are no l onger consistent with the CTG requirements were eli minated. - Recordkeeping requirements were added to ensur e compliance with all exemption requirements. - Applicable test methods were updated to the mo st current versions. - Other minor changes were made for document rea dability and consistency.

II. EFFECT ON EMISSIONS

Complete this section ONLY for rules that, when imp lemented, will result in quantifiable changes in em issions. Attach reference(s) for emission factor(s )

and other information. Attach calculation sheet sh owing how the emission information provided below w as determined

.

Net Effect on Emissions: Increase Decrease N/A

Emission Reduction Commitment in SIP for this Sourc e Category: None

Inventory Year Used to Calculate Changes in Emissio ns: 2008 Area Affected: Within the District jurisdiction. Placer County and local Air Basins (Sacramento Valley, Mou ntain Counties, and Lake Tahoe).

Future Year Control Profile Estimate (Provide information on as many years as possible) : Based on a 100% full compliance and penetration, we project a small amount of VOC emission reduction ( 0.03 ton/day, 25%). However, this reduction will be less due to compliance rate expected of about 70%.CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD

Note that the district’s input to the Rule Evaluati on Form will not be used as input to the ARB’s emis sion forecasting and planning.

III. SOURCES/ATTAINMENT STATUS

District is: Attainment Nonattainment Split

Approximate Total Number of Small (<100 TPY) Source s Affected by this Amendment: Seven (7) facilities with District permits and many other sources that perform grahic arts operations.

Percent in Nonattainment Area: 95 %

Number of Large (> 100 TPY) Sources Controlled: Ze ro (0) Percent in Nonattainment Area: Not appl icable because there are no large sources%

Name(s) and Location(s) (city and county) of Large (> 100 TPY) Sources Controlled by Rule (Attach additional sheets as

necessary) : Not applicable because there are no large sources.

VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN

No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment

Discussion: Rule 239, Graphic Arts Operations, was done to meet RACT as required by our District SIP requirements. This amendments to Rule 239 may assist the District attain additional VOC emission reductions to those committed and help to achieve attainment with ozone standards in our Sacramento Valley and Mountain counties Air bas ins.
