Document Description
The City falls within the Bay Area Air Quality Management District ("BAAQMD"), which in 2022 issued GHG significance thresholds recommendations for residential and commercial projects, but not a threshold for industrial land uses. The ordinance would adopt the South Coast Air Quality Management District ("SCAQMD") threshold of significance under CEQA for industrial land uses that is supported by substantial evidence and serves as a basis for mitigation of significant sources of GHG impacts. The proposed Ordinance applies to warehousing, logistics, and distribution facilities in the City of American Canyon for which a Notice of Preparation is issued after March 1, 2024 under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Ordinance defines Industrial Commerce Centers as a facility used for storing and consolidating manufactured goods, typically larger than 200,000 square feet with specific characteristics such as dock high loading doors and truck activities.
