The Board of Directors of the Sacramento Metropolitan AQMD will conduct a public hearing to consider a proposed revision to the 2009 Sacramento Regional 8-Hour Ozone and Reasonable Further Progress Plan to remove the commitment for control measure IS-2, Operational Indirect Source Rule. This revision of the State Implementation Plan will be forwarded to the California Air Resources Board for their approval and subsequent submittal to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for final approval as a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP).
Indirect source emissions are those generated from the operation of buildings, facilities, and other stationary sources that attract mobile sources of pollution. Control measure IS-2 would require mitigation of NOx and VOC emissions from the operation of new indirect sources.
