CA Health & Safety Code § 41750 (2021)
2021 California Code|Health and Safety Code - HSC|DIVISION 26 - AIR RESOURCES|PART 4 - NONVEHICULAR AIR POLLUTION CONTROL|CHAPTER 3 - Emission Limitations|ARTICLE 1.5 - Portable Equipment|Section 41750.

41750.  The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following:(a)  Existing law authorizes each district to impose separate and sometimes inconsistent emission control requirements for, and to require separate permits to operate, portable equipment that are used at various sites throughout the state. (b)  That multiplicity of permits and regulatory requirements imposes a complex and costly burden on California businesses that use, hire, provide, and manufacture that equipment. (c)  A uniform, voluntary system of statewide registration and regulation of portable equipment, consistent with current state and federal air quality law, is necessary to ensure consistent and reasonable regulation of that equipment without undue burden on their owners, operators, and manufacturers. (d)  Portable equipment has attributes of both mobile sources and stationary sources of air pollution. A separate registration and emission control program is needed to reflect the unique operating characteristics of that equipment while providing authority for a statewide program of emission reduction measures to be applied to existing in-state, out-of-state, and newly manufactured portable equipment. (Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 429, Sec. 2. Effective January 1, 1997.)

41804.5.  (a)  Notwithstanding Section 41800, a district board may authorize, subject to the limitations in Section 41803 and this section, the use of open outdoor fires by a city or county to dispose of nonindustrial wood waste from trees, vines, and brush at disposal sites located above 1,500 feet elevation mean sea level anywhere in the state, or at any elevation in the area designated as the North Coast Air Basin by the state board pursuant to Section 39606. (b)  Authorization for such burning, if granted, shall be in the form of permits issued by the district and by the fire protection agency having jurisdiction over the area in which the disposal site is located. The permits shall allow burning only on days during which agricultural burning is not prohibited by the state board pursuant to Section 41855. (c)  No permit shall be issued until there is filed with the district a written statement by the owner of the land on which the disposal site is located, or his agent, or if some other person is lawfully in possession of such land, by such other person, approving the burning on such land by the city or county. (d)  Prior to issuing a permit, the district may inspect the wood waste to be burned to verify that it is exclusively nonindustrial wood waste from trees, vines, and brush. (e)  The state board shall approve the use of open outdoor fires at a designated disposal site to dispose of such wood waste if such an operation of the disposal site will not prevent the achievement and maintenance of ambient air quality standards. The approval shall be granted for a minimum of one year. (f)  In seeking approval from the state board to use open outdoor fires at disposal sites throughout the county to dispose of such wood waste, a county may submit its plan for the disposal of such wood waste in the county by the use of open outdoor fires at the disposal sites. (Amended by Stats. 1982, Ch. 230, Sec. 1.)
