The Board of Directors of the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District (District) will consider the adoption of a revision to the District’s portion of California’s State Implementation Plan on February 23. The Board will consider the adoption of negative declarations for the following Control Techniques Guidelines (CTGs):
- Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Assembly Coatings. (U.S. EPA Publication No. EPA-453/R-08-006, September 2008)
- Fiberglass Boat Manufacturing Materials. (U.S. EPA Publication No. EPA-453/R-08-004, September 2008)
Under the federal Clean Air Act, Section 182(b)(2)(A), the District is required to implement Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) for emission source categories that are covered by a CTG issued by U.S. EPA. The proposed negative declarations, stating that there are no sources within the District to which these CTGs apply, will satisfy the District’s RACT requirements.
The public may review and provide comments on the proposed action. The proposed negative declarations and staff report are available on the District website and at the District office. Paper copies can be requested by calling (916) 874-4800. The documents can also be downloaded at the links below:
