district officer and employee from whom these materials, and a copy
of the draft plan, may be obtained.
40467. Prior to formal submittal of this plan to the state board by
the south coast district board, and during the time period specified
in subdivision (a) of Section 40463, the south coast district board
and the state board shall meet to identify and agree on the portions
of the plan which are of prime importance to subsequent state board
approval of the plan. The south coast district board and the state
board shall work together to resolve any differences concerning these
key sections prior to formal submission of the plan to the state
board. The south coast district board and the state board shall
jointly adopt the procedures by which these plan differences shall be
resolved.
40468. The state board shall not require as a condition of approval
of the plan or subsequent revisions, any indirect source review
program or other land use control measures.
40469. (a) Following submittal by the south coast district, the
state board shall review the plan to determine its adequacy to meet
federally mandated primary ambient air quality standards and all
other requirements of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 7401
et seq.) and its adequacy to meet the requirements of the California
Clean Air Act of 1988 (Chapter 1568, Statutes of 1988) and to attain
state ambient air quality standards through application of the best
available control technology, indirect source controls,
transportation control measures, and the use of cleaner burning
alternative fuels. If the state board determines that portions of the
plan meet the requirements of the state and federal acts and are
adequate to attain state ambient air quality standards, it shall
adopt those portions and submit to the Environmental Protection
Agency the portions of the plan required by the federal act within
120 days after receipt of the plan from the south coast district.
(b) If the state board determines that the plan does not meet all
the requirements of the state and federal acts, or does not include a
deadline for the attainment of the state ambient air quality
standards by application of the best available control technology,
indirect source controls, transportation control measures, and the
use of cleaner burning alternative fuels, the state board shall,
prior to amending the plan, convene a committee comprised of two
members each of the state board, the Executive Committee of the
Southern California Association of Governments, and the south coast
district board appointed by the entity they represent to attempt to
resolve the differences. If it is necessary to amend the plan, the
state board shall do so at a public hearing held pursuant to Section
41652 and shall submit to the Environmental Protection Agency the
portions of the plan required by the federal act within 120 days
after receipt of the plan from the south coast district. In
submitting the plan to the Environmental Protection Agency, the state
board shall indicate what changes have been made to the plan.
(c) Within 30 days after the receipt of the plan from the south
coast district, the state board shall determine if, with respect to
any part of the plan concerning the control of a source of emissions
that is within the state board's responsibility under law, it has
sufficient information to determine whether the plan, or any part of
the plan, meets the applicable requirements of the state and federal
acts and is adequate to attain state ambient air quality standards.
The state board shall thereupon notify the south coast district, in
writing, of the additional information needed to make the
determination, and the south coast district shall promptly furnish
the information.
40469.5. Following the adoption of those portions of the plan that
comply with the California Clean Air Act of 1988 (Chapter 1568,
Statutes of 1988) and the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 7401
et seq.) and are adequate to attain state ambient air quality
standards, the state board shall make all reasonable efforts to
assist the south coast district by providing any additional
information required to achieve an approvable state implementation
plan, including convening joint public workshops on air quality
monitoring, modeling, control technologies, and other matters coming
within the state board's responsibility under law, and assisting the
south coast district in researching and testing transportation
control measures.
40470. The Southern California Association of Governments shall
participate in the joint agency review and conflict resolution
processes established by Sections 40463, 40467, and 40469 insofar as
the processes relate to plan elements for which the Southern
California Association of Governments has plan development
responsibility.
40471. (a) Within one year from the date that a new federal ambient
air standard for PM2.5 is adopted, the south coast district shall
make a preliminary assessment of the nature of PM2.5 in the South
Coast Air Basin, and shall revise its air quality management plan to
include a discussion of how the south coast district's current PM10
strategy and ozone plan will assist the South Coast Air Basin to make
progress in achieving compliance with the 24-hour federal ambient
air standard for PM2.5.
(b) On or before December 31, 2001, and every three years
thereafter, as part of the preparation of the air quality management
plan revisions, the south coast district board, in conjunction with a
public health organization or agency, shall prepare a report on the
health impacts of particulate matter air pollution in the South Coast
Air Basin. The south coast district board shall submit its report to
the advisory council appointed pursuant to Section 40428 for review
and comment. The advisory council shall undertake peer review
concerning the report prior to its finalization and public release.
The south coast district board shall hold public hearings concerning
the report and the peer review, and shall append to the report any
additional material or information that results from the peer review
and public hearings.
