                             INTRODUCTION

                                                               »
     This document has been produced in compliance with Section 110(h)(l)
of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1977.  The Federally enforceable
regulations contained in the State Implementation Plans (SIPs) have been
compiled for all 56 States and territories (with the exception of the
Northern Mariana Islands).  They consist of both the Federally approved
State and/or local air quality regulations as indicated in the Federal
Register and the Federally promulgated regulations for the State, as
indicated in the Federal Register.  Regulations which fall into one of
the above categories as of January 1, 1978, have been incorporated.  As
mandated by Congress, this document ijrill be updated annually.  State
and/or local air quality regulations which have not been Federally
approved as of January 1, 1978, are not included here; omission of these
regulations from this document in no.way affects the ability of the
respective Federal, State, or local agencies to enforce such regulations.

     There have been recent changes 1n the Federal enforceabi1i ty of
parking management regulations and indirect source regulations.  The
October, 1977, appropriation bill for EPA prohibited Federal enforcement
of parking management regulations in the absence of specific Federal
authorizing legislation.  Federally promulgated parking management
regulations have, therefore, been suspended indefinitely.  Pursuant to
the 1977 Clean Air Act Amendments, indirect source regulations may not
be required for the approval ipf a given SIP.  Consequently, any State
adopted indirect source regulations Jnay be suspended or revoked;  State
adopted indirect source regulations contained in an applicable SIP
are Federally enforceable.  More importantly, EPA may only promulgate
indirect source review regulations which are specific to Federally
funded,, operated,~or owned facilities or projects.  Therefore, the
Federally promulgated indirect source regulations appearing in this
document are not enforceable by EPA except as they relate to Federal
facilities.

     Since State air quality regulations vary widely in their organization,
content, and language, a standardized subject index is utilized in this
document.  Index listings consist of both contaminant and activity oriented
categories to facilitate usage.  For example, for regulations which apply
to copper smelters, one might look under sulfur compounds (50.2), particu-
1 ate matter process weight (50.1.1), or copper smelters (51.15).   Federal
regulations pertaining to a given State immediately follow the approved
State and local regulations.

     Additionally, a summary sheet of the information included in each
comprehensive document is presented prior to the regulatory text  to
allow one to quickly assess the contents of the document.  Specifically,
the summary sheets contain the date of submittal to EPA of each revision
                                  111

-------
to the SIP and the date of the Federal Register in which the revision
was either approved or disapproved by EPA.Finally, a brief description
or reference of the regulation which was submitted is also included.

     This document is not intended to provide a tool for determining
the enforceability of any given regulation.  As stated above, it is
intended to provide a comprehensive compilation of those regulations
which are incorporated directly or by, reference into Title 40, Part 52,
of the Code of Federal Regulations.  Consequently, the exclusion of a
Federally approved regulation from this document does not diminish the
enforceability of the regulation.  Similarly, the Inclusion of a given
regulation (for example, regulations governing pollutants, such as odors,
for which there is no national ambient air quality standards) in this
document does not, in itself, render the regulation enforceable.

(2.0)     RULE  101    Title       -                     :

         These rules and  regulations  shall  be  known as the Rules and Regulations
         of the Kings  County Air Pollution  Control District.

(1.0)    RULE  102    Definitions

         Except as otherwise specifically provided in these rules and, except
         where the context  otherwise  indicates, words used in those rules, are
         used  in exactly  the same sense  as  the same words are used in Chapter 2,
         Division 20,  of  the Health and  Safety Code.

            a.  Agricultural  Burning Any  open outdoor fire used in agricultural
                operations in the growing  of  crops or raising of fowls or animals,

(9.0)     RULE 207     Provision of Sampling and Testing  Facilities

         A person  operating  or using  any equipment  for  which these rules require
         a permit  shall  provide and maintain  such sampling and testing facilities
         as specified in the permit.

(3.0)     RULE 208     Standards for Granting Applications

             a.  The Air Pollution Control Officer  shall  deny a  permit except as
                provided in Rule 209,  if the applicant does not show that the
                use of  any  equipment,  which  may cause  the issuance of air con-
                taminants,  or the use  of which may eliminate or reduce or con-
                trol the Issuance of air contaminants, is so designed, controlled,
                or equipped with such  air pollution control equipment, that it
                may be  expected  to operate without emitting or  without causing
                to be emitted air contaminants in  violations of Section 24242
                or 24243, of the Health and  Safety Code, or of  these rules and
                regulations.

             b.  Before  a permit  is granted,  the Air Pollution Control Officer
                may require the  applicant to provide and maintain such facilities
                as are  necessary for sampling and  testing purposes in order to
                secure  information that will disclose  the nature, extent, quantity
                or degree of air contaminants discharged into the atmosphere
                from the equipment described in the permit.  In the event of such
                a  requirement, the Air Pollution Control Officer shall notify
                the applicant in writing of  the required size,  number and location
                of sampling holes; the size  and location of the sampling plat-
                form; the access to  the sampling platform; and  the utilities
                for operating the sampling and testing equipment.  The platform
                and access  shall be  constructed in accordance with the general
                industry safety  orders of the State of California.

             c.  In acting upon a permit to operate, if the A1r  Pollution Control
                Officer finds that the equipment has been constructed not in
                accordance  with  the  authority to construct, he  shall deny the
                permit  to operate.   The Air  Pollution  Control Officer shall not
                accept  any  further application for permit to operate the equip- ;
                ment so constructed  until he finds that  the equipment has been  :
                constructed in accordance with the permit to construct.

(2.0)     RULE 214    Existing Sources

         Existing sources,  where control  equipment has  been  installed,  that were
         in compliance and  sources  that are  on  a  compliance  schedule  approved by
         the control  district, on the  effective date  of Rule 201,  shall be issued
         a conditional  permit to operate.  The  conditional permit  to  operate
         will  not be  valid  if there is a  significant  change  in  the process or sign-
         ificant increase in  production.

         Existing sources,  requiring the  installation of control equipment, shall
         be issued a  conditional  permit to operate provided  that an acceptable
         time for compliance  is filed  with the  control  officer.  The  time for
         compliance shall include each of the following time:   time for engineering,
         time for procurement, time for fabrication,  and time for  installation
         and adjustment.  The control  officer may require such  periodic reports
         on each phase of the progress toward compliance. Failure at any phase
         to make reasonable progress toward  completion  of such  installations as
         are required for final compliance shall  be deemed an unreasonable delay
         in compliance and  is subject  to revocation of  the conditional  permit to
         operate.

         The following sections of the  California Health and Safety Code and any
         future  amendments thereto are  hereby made part of these rules and reg-
         ulations by reference: Section  39068.2, Chapter 3, Part 1, Division  26.

             a.   A person shall not  load  or permit the loading of gasoline into
                 any stationary tank installed after December 31, 1970, with a
                 capacity of 250 gallons  or more from  any tank truck or trailer,
                 except through a  permanent submerged  fill pipe, unless such
                 tank  is equipped  with  a  vapor loss  control device or is a pres-
                 sure  tank.

                 A person shall not  install any gasoline tank with a capacity  of
                 250 gallons or more unless such tank  is  equipped as described
                 in the first paragraph of  this rule.

                 For the purpose of  this  rules, the  term "gasoline" is defined
                 as any petroleum  distillate having  a  Reid vapor pressure of
                 4 pounds or greater.

                 For the purpose of  this  rule, the term "submerged fill pipe"
                 is defined  as  any fill pipe the discharge opening of which is
                 entirely submerged  when  the liquid  level is 6 inches above the
                 bottom of the  tank.  "Submerged fill  pipe" when applied to a
                 tank  which  is  loaded from  the side  is defined as any fill pipe
                 the discharge  opening  of which is entirely submerged when the
                 liquid level is 18  inches  above the bottom of the tank.

                 The provisions of this section shall  not apply  to tanks which
                 are used primarily  for fueling of implements of husbandry, as
                                             -23-

-------
        such vehicles are defined in Division 16 (Section 36000) of the
        Vehicle Code, and were installed before June 1, 1974.

    b.  A person shall not transfer or permit the transfer of gasoline
        from any tank truck or trailer into any stationary storage
        container with a capacity of more than 250 gallons unless such
        container is equipped with a submerged fill pipe and unless
        90 percent by volume of the gasoline vapors displaced during
        the filling of the stationary storage container are prevented
        from being released to the atmosphere through the following
        process:

        1.  The displaced gasoline vapors or gases are processed by a
            system that included (1) vapor-tight liquid fill connector,
            (2) a vapor-tight vapor return line to the delivery vessel
            with a cross-sectional area at least 50% as great as that
            of the gasoline fill line, (3) a tank vent line properly
            sized and equipped with an approved pressure device approved
            by the Air Pollution Control Officer which will insure that
            the vapor return line is connected before gasoline can be
            transferred into the container, and (4) the vapor-laden
            delivery vessel being refilled only at facilities equipped
            with vapor recovery or disposal systems described in Rule
            413.

        2.  The displaced gasoline vapor or gases are processed by a
            system approved by the Air Pollution Control Officer and
            with a minimum recovery efficiency at least equivalent
            to that of the system described in Rule 411 - a, b, or c.

The provisions of this Rule shall not apply to the following:

        1.  The transfer of gasoline into stationary storage containers
            used for the fueling of implements of husbandry as such.
            vehicles are defined in Division 16 (Section 36000 et seq.)
            of the California Vehicle Code.

        2.  The transfer of gasoline into any stationary container which
            was installed prior to July 1, 1975, or

        3.  Gasoline delivery vehicles which exclusively service storage
            containers which are exempt from the provisions of this
            Rule.

        4.  Loading facilities exempted by Rule 413 and gasoline
            storage containers and delivery vehicles served form such
            facilities.

The owner or operator of any stationary storage container which is sub-
ject to this Rule and which is installed on or after July 1, 1975 shall
comply with the provisions of this Rule at the time of installation.
                                   -24-

-------
Vapor-return and/or vapor recovery systems used to comply with the pro-
visions of this Rule shall comply with all safety, fire, weights and
measures, and other applicable codes and/or regulations.

For the purpose of this Rule, the term "gasoline" is defined as any
petroleum distillate having a Reid vapor pressure of 4 pounds or greater.

RULE 412.1  Transfer of Gasoline into Vehicle Fuel Tanks

A person shall not transfer or permit the transfer of gasoline into any
motor vehicle fuel tank of greater than 5 gallons  capacity unless such
transfer is made through a fill nozzed designed to:

    1.  Prevent the discharge of hydrocarbon vapors to the atmosphere
        from either the vehicle filler neck or dispensing nozzle;

    2.  Direct vapor displaced from the automotive fuel tank to a system
        wherein at least 90 percent by volume of the organic compounds
        in displaced vapors are recovered; and

    3.  Prevent automotive fuel tank overfills or spillage on fill
        nozzle disconnect.

If it is demonstrated., that it is impractical to comply with the pro-
visions of this Rule as a result of vehicle fill neck configuration,
locations, or other design features for vehicles in existence or in
production on July 1, 1976, the Air Pollution Control Officer may find
and order that the provisions of this rule shall not apply during the
filling of such vehicles.  In no case, however, shall such configuration
exempt any gasoline dispensing facility from installing and using, in
the most effective manner practicable, control equipment required by this
Rule.

The provisions of this Rule shall not apply to the following:

    1.  The fueling  of implements of husbandry, as such vehicles are
        defined in Division 16 (Section 36000 et seq.) of the California
        Vehicle Code;

    2.  The transfer of gasoline from any stationary storage container
        of a capacity of 250 gallons or less.

    3.  The transfer of gasoline from any stationary storage container
        which was installed prior to July 1, 1975.

    4.  The transfer of gasoline from any stationary storage container
        served from loading facilities exempted by Rule 413.

Any gasoline dispensing  subject to this Rule, installed on or after
July 1, 1975, shall comply with the provisions of this Rule at the time
of installation.
                                    -25-

         Rule shall comply with all  applicable safety, fire,  weights,  and  measures,
         and other applicable codes  and/or regulations.

         For the purpose of this Rule, the term "gasoline" is defined  as any pet-
         roleum distillate having.a  Reid vapor pressure of 4  pounds  or greater.

(51.16)  RULE 413    Organic Liquid  Loading

         A person shall  not load organic liquids having a vapor pressure of 1.5
         pounds per square inch absolute or greater under actual  loading conditions
         into any tank truck, trailer, or railroad tank car from any loading
         facility unless the loading facility is equipped with a vapor collection
         and disposal system or its  equivalent approved the Air Pollution  Control
         Officer.

         Loading shall be accomplished in such a manner that  all  displaced vapor
         and air will be vented only to the vapor collection  system.   Measures
         shall  be taken  to prevent liquid drainage from the loading  device when
         it is  not in use or to accomplish complete drainage  before  the loading
         device is disconnected.

         The vapor disposal portion  of the vapor collection and disposal system
         shall  consist of one of the following:

             a.  An absorber system  or condensation system which processed all
                 vapors  and recovers at least 90 percent by weight of  the  organic
                 vapors  and gases from the equipment being controlled.

             b.  A vapor handling system which directs all vapors to a fuel  gas
                 system.

             c.  Other equipment of  an efficiency equal  to or greater  than (a)
                 or (b)  if approved  by the Air Pollution Control  Officer.

         This Rule shall apply only  to the loading of organic liquids  having a
         vapor  pressure  of 1.5 pounds per square inch absolute or greater  under
         actual loading  conditions at a facility from which at least 20,000
         gallons  of such organic liquids  are  loaded in any one day.

         "Loading Facility", for the purpose  of this Rule, shall  mean  any  aggrega-
         tion or combination of organic liquid loading equipment which is  both
         (1) possessed by one person, and (2) located so that all the  organic
         liquid loading  outlets for  such aggregation or  combination  of loading
