SIERRA OZONE SUMMIT

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Northern Sierra Air Quality Management District proposes to adopt a “negative declaration” stating that Control Techniques Guidelines (issued by EPA as Reasonably Available Control Technology for ozone nonattainment areas) for Industrial Cleaning Solvents; Offset Lithographic Printing and Letterpress Printing; Flexible Package Printing; Flat Wood Paneling Coatings; Paper, Film, and Foil Coatings; Large Appliance Coatings; and Metal Furniture Coatings do not apply in western Nevada County because there are no sources in these categories meeting the applicability threshold of 15 pounds per day of volatile organic compound emissions.  The NSAQMD will conduct a two-site public hearing on the proposed action on May 19, 2008 (or, if canceled, June 23, 2008) at 1:00 PM at the Madeline Helling Library, 980 Helling Way, Nevada City and the Plumas County Library, 445 W.
