Document Description
SCAQMD staff is proposing amendments to Regulation XX-Regional Clean Air Incentives Market (Reclaim), Rule 2002 - Allocations for Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) and Oxides of Sulfur (Sox), to reduce the allowable SOx emission limits based on current Best Available Retrofit Control Technology (BARCT) for the following industrial equipment and processes: 1) fluid catalytic cracking units (FCCUs); 2) refinery boilers and hearters; 3) sulfur recovery - tail gas treatment units; 4) sulfuric acid manufacturing process; 5) container glass manufacturing process; 6) coke calcining; and, 7) portland cement manufacturing. Additional amendments are proposed to establish procedures and criteria for reducing RECLAIM Trading Credits (RTCs) and RTC adjustment factors for year 2013 and later. Other minor changes are proposed for clarity and consistency throughout the regulation. The Initial Study Identifies the topics of "aesthetics," "air quality," "energy," "hydrology and water quality," "hazards and hazardous materials," and "transportation/traffic" as areas that may be adversely affected by the proposed project. Impact to these environmental areas will be further analyzed in the Draft EA.
