Title

APCD Rule 55, Fugitive Dust

Description

Proposed new Rule 55, Fugitive Dust, will establish visible dust standards for the construction industry, agriculture, bulk material handling industry, mining industry, unpaved roads, and storage piles. This new rule is required by Health and Safety Code Section 39614 for air pollution control districts that have not attained the state ambient air quality standard for particulate matter emissions. The EIR was prepared to address industry concerns that air quality will be negatively impacted by the use of diesel-powered watering truck and street sweepers used to comply with the requirements of the new rule.
