PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Plan Amendment and Rezone Application No. P22-00507 and related Development Permit Application No. P22- 00505 were filed by Roger Hurtado of Centerline Design, LLC, on behalf of Valley Health Team, Inc., and pertain to six (6) parcels totaling approximately ± 1.23 acres located west of North Sugar Pine Avenue between West Fir and West Beechwood Avenues.

Plan Amendment Application No. P20 -04209 proposes to amend the Fresno General Plan, Pinedale Neighborhood Plan, and Fresno County Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan to change the planned land use designations for the subject property from Residential – Medium Density (±1.23 acres) to Commercial – General (±1.23 acres).

The rezone application component proposes to amend the Official Zoning Map of the City of Fresno to rezone the subject property from the RS-5 (Residential Single Family, Medium Density) (±1.23 acres) zone district to Commercial – General (±1.23 acres) zone district in accordance with the Plan Amendme nt Application.

Development Permit Application No. P22- 00505 requests to construct an 11,664 -square-foot, single- story medical clinic. The project proposes on and off-site improvements including but not limited to: two (2) points of ingress and egress; curbs, gutters, and sidewalks; landscaping; and guest and employee parking. The project will also require the construction of public facilities and infrastructure in accordance with the standards, specifications, and policies of the City of Fresno. Under the current planned land use and zone district of Residential – Medium Density, the proposed use as a medical office would be prohibited. Under the proposed Commercial - General planned land use and zone district, the proposed use would be permitted by right.

8. Per DRC review: note and show on plan existing parcel lines to be removed with a parcel merger. **Provide documentation of parcel merger**

9. Per DRC review: note and show items noted at pre- application meeting: Be advised that this project will be served by the Pinedale County Water District (PCWD) for domestic and fire protection water services. The existing water main shown in an easement through the proposed parking lot indicated as 8 inch may actually be 6 inch per a somewhat dated PCWD water system map in FF records. **Confirm actual size with PCWD and correct as necessary.** **Also be advised, that the PCWD now requires an aboveground double detector check assembly (DDCA) for fire services which may be problematic on placing south of the proposed riser closet in th e hardscape area.** A location for the service in the landscape area next to the ambulance parking stall would be a better option. The DDCA incorporated two indicated fire sprinkler control valves and the FDC can be located on the back side of thi s device with no control valve on the riser in the proposed exterior closet. Applicant is advised to consult with the site utility contractor and fire sprinkler contractor on the details of the fire sprinkler service installation.  2.

The proposed clinic is also an infill project as the surrounding neighborhood was developed many decades ago. Information from long time Pinedale residents indicate that the subject site has never been developed. In fact, the project is subject to City of Fresno intercity land use fee reductions.

The project is also within an Infill Opportunity Zone of the City of Fresno General Plan adopted to promote and facilitate both large, catalytic reinvestment projects, as well as smaller-scale strategic interventions.

Neighborhood Outreach Efforts:

The applicant held a zoom outreach meeting with Pinedale residents many months ago using a mailing list provided by city staff. The neighborhood is very supportive of project. The applicant committed to working with the neighbors to assure combability particularly regarding parking and landscaping.

Describe how the proposal is complementary to the surrounding neighborhood:

To provide proximate health care to an undeserved area.

Describe how the proposal helps implement the Fresno General Plan

The project will provide health and specialized care services to an underserved area of the community and to the adjacent Pinedale Elementary school.

1. Background and Project Description

Valley Health Team, Inc., has a long history of providing healthcare services in the Central Valley. In 1973, concerned citizens from Kerman, San Joaquin, and surrounding communities worked together to bring quality healthcare to this underserved region. Valley Health Team has grown steadily since then to meet the increasing healthcare needs in Fresno, Tulare, and Inyo Counties. In keeping with the applicant’s mission to provide accessible, 3 comprehensive, and quality health care in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner regardless of patient's ability to pay,

Valley Health Team has Board-certified physicians, certified physician assistants, dentists, dermatologists, optometrists, podiatrists, chiropractors, psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, health educators, case managers, and support staff who work with leadership to provide primary health care and specialty care services to deliver outcome-based care.

Valley Health Team targets the indigent, uninsured, underserved, special needs population, migrant and seasonal agricultural workers, and all persons with limited access to health care including individuals at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level.

Valley Health Team desires to construct a 11,664+/- sq. ft. health center on the following the subject property in Pinedale, a previously unincorporated community in Fresno County, CA.

The location next to Pinedale Elementary School will allow the students and their parents to have great accessibility to excellent health care.

The health center will meet OSHPD3 requirements and will accommodate exam, treatment, labs, x-ray, behavioral health, dental and other rooms and offices as detailed on the project floor plan prepared by Centerline Design, LLC.

The health center will provide outpatient services in family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, perinatal care, gynecology, nutrition and health education, behavioral health, dentistry, diagnostic lab and x-ray, referral services for women, infants and children.

Additionally, chiropractic and podiatry dispensing services will be offered.

2. Hours of Operation

The proposed hours of operations are Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. If demand exists, the proposed health center may offer expanded hours in the evenings to 8pm and on Saturdays. An Urgent Care component may also be provided 7 days a week from 8am to 9pm with a much reduced staff, if the demand for that service exists.

3. Employees

The project is anticipated to employ approximately 40 staff members including providers and support staff at the site.

4. Customers

The project will serve an estimated 5,000 unduplicated patients and provide 21,450 patient visits per year or 82 clients per day including telemedicine which will account for 25% (or 20+/- patients) of all client visits.

Valley Health Team anticipates that 40-50% of patient visits will consist of visits from residents within the Pinedale community and students from Pinedale Elementary School.

Please find the attached letter of support from Debra Bolls Principal Pinedale Elementary 4 School acknowledging the opportunity to provide her students excellent health care proximate to their homes and school.

5. Service Delivery Vehicles

The are no service delivery vehicles.

6. Access to the site:

The site has frontage on two roads Beechwood and Spruce Avenues. Both roads are in good condition.

7. Number of parking spaces for employees, customers, and service/delivery vehicles.

Type of surfacing on parking area.

Please see the attached site plan prepared by Centerline Design, LLC.

5 14. Describe proposed advertising including size, appearance, and placement.

Signage will be per City of Fresno standards

15. Will existing buildings be used or will new buildings be constructed? Describe type of construction materials, height, color, etc. Provide floor plan and elevations, if appropriate

The site is vacant. All improvements will be new. Please see the attached site plan prepared by Centerline Design, LLC.

16. Will any outdoor lighting or an outdoor sound amplification system be used? Describe and indicate when used.

Outdoor lighting will be hooded and directed to not annoy nearby residents. No sound amplification will be used on site.

17. Landscaping or fencing proposed? Describe type and location.

The site will be nicely landscaped per city standards. Please see the attached site plan prepared by Centerline Design, LLC.

18. Any other information that will provide a clear understanding of the project or operation.

A major premise of the Valley Health Team business plan is to locate clinics with a wide range of medical, physical, psychological services in underserved areas such as Pinedale.

The proposed location was selected due to its immediately proximity meaning literally across the street from the Pinedale Elementary School located at 7171 N. Sugar Pine Ave. Please see the attached aerial. This proximity will allow the Pinedale Elementary School children and their families to walk to the clinic substantially reducing vehicular trips.

The proposed clinic is also proximate to the Pinedale Community Center located at 7170 N.

San Pablo Ave. which located immediately west and functionally a part of the Pinedale Elementary School. The proposed Valley Health Team site proximity to these two community activity centers allows their clients to literally walk to the clinic. Valley Health Team has already established a protocol with Pinedale Elementary School to serve the students health care needs and by way of extension the family of the students.

The facility is located within 1,000 feet of the City of Fresno bus rapid transit system BRT).

The purpose of the BRT system is to facilitate accelerated bus transportation along major city job and housing corridors thereby reducing automobile travel. Empirical information developed by the city at the time of the BRT implementation hearings concluded that the BRT reduces vehicle miles traveled for users proximate to BRT shelters.

Without the proposed Valley Health Team facility, Pinedale residents would have to travel outside of their community to obtain medical services. By locating the proposed Valley 6 Health Team facility within the community of Pinedale at the site proposed Pinedale residence medical, psychological, physical therapy and pharmaceutical needs can be addressed with much shorter trip lengths. In fact, as illustrated on the attached aerial, the unincorporated community of Pinedale is under 2 square miles and the community’s furthest point from the proposed health center location is only 3,294+/- feet or .62 of a mile.

Therefore, based on the information provided above, a majority of project vehicle trip lengths will be unusually short.

The project is within a highly mixed use area of substantial office, regional commercial and single and multifamily uses. Hundreds of acres of regional commercial uses including grocery, food, entertainment, fitness, general merchandising, home repair, etc. are proximate to the subject site. A variety of housing types exist in the Pinedale community including mobile home parks south of the subject site on Herndon Ave. This mix of uses substantially increases the likelihood that typical traffic counts overstate the net traffic generated by a use in a mixed use area.

SUBJECT: REVIEW OF THE TRAFFIC GENERATION ANALYSIS (TGA) DATED APRIL 8, 2022 FOR THE PROPOSED MEDICAL CLINIC LOCATED ON THE

NORTHWEST QUADRANT OF BLACKSTONE AVENUE AND HERNDON
AVENUE.

TIS 23-004, P22-00505/P22-00507

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Traffic Operations and Planning staff has reviewed the Traffic Generation Analysis (TGA) prepared by JLB Traffic Engineering, Inc. for the proposed medical clinic, “project”, which plans to construct up to 39,220 square feet of medical office build space on the northwest quadrant of Blackstone Avenue and Herndon Avenue. The TGA proposes a General Plan Amendment to modify the land use from Medium Density Residential to Commer cial General . The approximately 1.23 acre site is currently vacant.

Vehicle trips projected to be generated by the project were calculated using the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition. The following tables include the daily (ADT), AM and PM peak hour trips projected to be generated by the current General Plan land use (Table 1) , the Amended General Plan land use ( Table 2), and the Difference in Trip Generation (Table 3) as shown in the TGA:

Transportation impact criteria are tiered base d on a project’s location. Four (4) Traffic Impact Zones (TIZ) have been identified in the General Plan. Each TIZ has specific criteria to be used in determining the level of analy sis required for a project. The proposed project is located in Traffic Impact Zone (TIZ) I II. This TIZ requires a traffic impact study if a project is projected to generate more tha n 100 trips during a peak hour. Based on the analyses included in the T GA the difference in the trips between the existing land use and proposed land use is 24 (AM) and 29 (PM) peak hour trips. If the General Plan Amendment is approved, no further traffic analysis will be required. The TGA submitted for this project is sufficient for the project as proposed.

GENERAL COMMENTS and CONDITIONS

1. This project shall pay its Traffic Signal Mitigation Impac t (TSMI) Fee per the Master Fee Schedule at the time of building permit.

The TSMI fee facilitates project impact mitigation to the City of Fresno Traffic Signal infrastructure so that costs are applied to each new project/building based on the generated ADT. The TSMI fee is credited against traffic signal installation/modifications and/or Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) improvements (constructed at their ultimate location) that plan to build out the General Plan circulation element and are include d in the Nexus Study for the TSMI fee. If the project is conditioned with traffic signal improvements in excess of their TSMI fee amount, the applicant may apply for fee credits (security/bonding and/or developer agreement required) and/or reimbursement fo r work in excess of their fee as long as the infrastructure is in place at the ultimate location. The applicant should work with the Public Works Department to identify, with a Professional Engineers estimate, the costs associated with the improvements pri or to paying the TSMI fee to determine any applicable fee credits and/or reimbursements.

Page 3 of 3 ends

For project specific impacts that are not consistent with the General Plan, Public Works Standards, and/or are not incorporated into the TSMI fees, the infrastructure costs will not be eligible for reimbursement.

Failure to pay the TSMI fee or construct improvements that are credited/reimbursable with this fee will result in a significant unmitigated impact as this fee is applied to all projects within the City Sphere of Influence.

2. This project shall pay its Fresno Major Street Impact (FMSI) Fee, which will be determined at time of building permit. This FMSI fee is creditable towards major street roadway improvements included in the nexus study for the FMSI fee.

3. The project shall pay the Regional Transportation Mitigation Fee (RTMF). Pay the RTMF fee to the Joint Powers Agency located at 2035 Tulare Street, Suite 201, Fresno, CA 93721; (559) 233 -4148, ext. 200; www.fresnocog.org. Provide proof of payment or exemption, based on vesting rights, prior to issuance of building permits.

4. The proposed project shall pay the $2 20 Traffic Impact Study review fee for review of the document. Proof of payme nt shall be provided to the Traffic & Engineering Services Division.

5. The proposed project shall make necessary improvements and right -of-way and public easement dedications along adjacent public street(s) and within the site boundaries per City of Fresno standards/requirements.

6. The proposed site plan shall be reviewed and approved by the City of Fresno Traffic & Engineering Services Division, Traffic Planning Section.

If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (559) 6 21-8694 or [email protected] .

7. The Federal Clean Water Act and the State General Permits for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction and Industrial Activities (State General Permits) require developers of construction projects disturbing one or more acres, and discharges associated with industrial activity not otherwise exempt from National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting, to implement controls to reduce pollutants, prohibit the discharge of waters other than storm water to the municipal storm drain system, and meet water quality standards.

These requirements apply both to pollutants generated during construction, and to those which may be generated by operations at the development after construction.

State General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activities, effective July 1, 2010, as amended. A State General Construction Permit is required for all clearing, grading, and disturbances to the ground that result in soil disturbance of at least one acre (or less than one acre) if part of a larger common plan of development or sale). Permittees are required to: submit a Notice of Intent and Permit Registration Documents to be covered and must pay a permit fee to the State Water Resources Control Board (State Board), develop and implement a storm water pollution prevention plan, eliminate non-storm water discharges, conduct routine site inspections, train employees in permit compliance, and complete an annual certification of compliance.

State General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Industrial Activities, April, 2014 (available at the District Office). A State General Industrial Permit is required for specific types of industries described in the NPDES regulations or by Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code. The following categories of industries are generally required to secure an industrial permit: manufacturing; trucking; recycling; and waste and hazardous waste management. Specific exemptions exist for manufacturing activities which occur entirely indoors. Permittees are required to: submit a Notice of Intent to be covered and must pay a permit fee to the State Water Resources Control Board, develop and implement a storm water pollution prevention plan, eliminate non-storm water discharges, conduct routine site inspections, train employees in permit compliance, sample storm water runoff and test it for pollutant indicators, and annually submit a report to the State Board.

The proposed development is encouraged to select and implement storm water quality controls recommended in the Fresno-Clovis Storm Water Quality Management Construction and Post-Construction Guidelines (available at the District Office) to meet the requirements of the State General Permits, eliminate the potential for non-storm water to enter the municipal storm drain system, and where possible minimize contact with materials which may contaminate storm water runoff.

8. A requirement of the District may be appealed by filing a written notice of appeal with the Secretary of the District within ten days of the date of this Notice of Requirements.

9. The District reserves the right to modify, reduce or add to these requirements, or revise fees, as necessary to accommodate changes made in the proposed development by the developer or requirements made by other agencies.

The District
’
s existing Master Plan drainage system is designed to serve medium density residential uses and the existing Master Plan storm drainage facilities do not have capacity to serve the proposed commercial land use. The developer shall be required to mitigate the impacts of the increased runoff from the proposed commercial land use to a rate that would be expected if developed to medium density residential. The developer may either make improvements to the existing pipeline system to provide additional capacity or may use some type of permanent peak reducing facility in order to eliminate adverse impacts on the existing system. Should the developer choose to construct a permanent peak-reducing facility, such a system would be required to reduce runoff from a ten-year storm produced by a commercial development, to a two-year discharge, which would be produced by the property if developed medium density residential.

Implementation of the mitigation measures may be deferred until the time of development.

In an effort to improve storm runoff quality, outdoor storage areas shall be constructed and maintained such that material that may generate contaminants will be prevented from contact with rainfall and runoff and thereby prevent the conveyance of contaminants in runoff into the storm drain system.

The District encourages, but does not require that roof drains from non-residential development be constructed such that they are directed onto and through a landscaped grassy swale area to filter out pollutants from roof runoff.

Project: P22-00505, Valley Health Team, Inc. - Pinedale

District CEQA Reference No: 20221286

Dear Mr. Aponte:

The San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (District) has reviewed the Development Permit (DP) from the City of Fresno (City) for the Valley Health Team, Inc.

Pinedale project. Per the DP, the project consists of a General Plan Amendment and a Rezone to allow for the construction of an approximately 11,664 square foot medical clinic (Project). The Project is located on North Sugar Pine Avenue between West Fir Avenue and West Beechwood Avenue, in Fresno, CA 93650.

The District offers the following comments regarding the Project:

Project Related Emissions

At the federal level under the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), the District is designated as extreme nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone standards and serious nonattainment for the particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in size (PM2.5) standards. At the state level under California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS), the District is designated as nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone, PM10, PM2.5 standards.

Based on information provided to the District, Project specific annual criteria pollutant emissions from construction and operation are not expected to exceed any of the significance thresholds as identified in the District’s Guidance for Assessing and Mitigating Air Quality Impacts (GAMAQI):
https://www.valleyair.org/transportation/GAMAQI.pdf.

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 2 of 7 District Reference No: 20221286
September 30, 2022

Construction Emissions

The District recommends, to reduce impacts from construction-related diesel exhaust emissions, the Project should utilize the cleanest available off-road construction equipment, including the latest tier equipment.

Health Risk Screening/Assessment

The City should evaluate the risk associated with the Project for sensitive receptors (residences, businesses, hospitals, day-care facilities, health care facilities, etc.) in the area and mitigate any potentially significant risk to help limit exposure of sensitive receptors to emissions.

To determine potential health impacts on surrounding receptors (residences, businesses, hospitals, day-care facilities, health care facilities, etc.) a Prioritization and/or a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) should be performed for the Project. These health risk determinations should quantify and characterize potential Toxic Air Contaminants (TACs) identified by the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment/California Air Resources Board (OEHHA/CARB) that pose a present or potential hazard to human health.

Health risk analyses should include all potential air emissions from the project, which include emissions from construction of the project, including multi-year construction, as well as ongoing operational activities of the project. Note, two common sources of TACs can be attributed to diesel exhaust emitted from heavy-duty off-road earth moving equipment during construction, and from ongoing operation of heavy-duty on-road trucks.

Prioritization (Screening Health Risk Assessment):

A “Prioritization” is the recommended method for a conservative screening-level health risk assessment. The Prioritization should be performed using the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association’s (CAPCOA) methodology.

The District recommends that a more refined analysis, in the form of an HRA, be performed for any project resulting in a Prioritization score of 10 or greater. This is because the prioritization results are a conservative health risk representation, while the detailed HRA provides a more accurate health risk evaluation.

To assist land use agencies and project proponents with Prioritization analyses, the District has created a prioritization calculator based on the aforementioned CAPCOA guidelines, which can be found here:
http://www.valleyair.org/busind/pto/emission_factors/Criteria/Toxics/Utilities/PRIORI TIZATION-CALCULATOR.xls

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 3 of 7 District Reference No: 20221286
September 30, 2022

Health Risk Assessment:

Prior to performing an HRA, it is strongly recommended that land use agencies/ project proponents develop and submit for District review a health risk modeling protocol that outlines the sources and methodologies that will be used to perform the HRA. This step will ensure all components are addressed when performing the HRA.

A development project would be considered to have a potentially significant health risk if the HRA demonstrates that the project-related health impacts would exceed the District’s significance threshold of 20 in a million for carcinogenic risk, or 1.0 for either the Acute or Chronic Hazard Indices.

A project with a significant health risk would trigger all feasible mitigation measures.

The District strongly recommends that development projects that result in a significant health risk not be approved by the land use agency.

The District is available to review HRA protocols and analyses. For HRA submittals please provide the following information electronically to the District for review:

 HRA (AERMOD) modeling files
 HARP2 files
 Summary of emissions source locations, emissions rates, and emission factor calculations and methodologies.

For assistance, please contact the District’s Technical Services Department by:

 E-Mailing inquiries to: [email protected]
 Calling (559) 230-5900

Recommended Measure: Development projects resulting in TAC emissions should be located an adequate distance from residential areas and other sensitive receptors in accordance to CARB's Air Quality and Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Perspective located at https://ww3.arb.ca.gov/ch/handbook.pdf.

Ambient Air Quality Analysis

An Ambient Air Quality Analysis (AAQA) uses air dispersion modeling to determine if emissions increases from a project will cause or contribute to a violation of State or National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The District recommends an AAQA be performed for the Project if emissions exceed 100 pounds per day of any pollutant.

An acceptable analysis would include emissions from both project-specific permitted and non-permitted equipment and activities. The District recommends consultation

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 4 of 7 District Reference No: 20221286
September 30, 2022

with District staff to determine the appropriate model and input data to use in the analysis.

Specific information for assessing significance, including screening tools and modeling guidance, is available online at the District’s website:
www.valleyair.org/ceqa.

Vegetative Barriers and Urban Greening

There are residential units located west and south of the Project as well as a school to the north. The District suggests the City consider the feasibility of incorporating vegetative barriers and urban greening as a measure to further reduce air pollution exposure on sensitive receptors (e.g., residential units).

While various emission control techniques and programs exist to reduce air quality emissions from mobile and stationary sources, vegetative barriers have been shown to be an additional measure to potentially reduce a population’s exposure to air pollution through the interception of airborne particles and the update of gaseous pollutants. Examples of vegetative barriers include, but are not limited to the following: trees, bushes, shrubs, or a mix of these. Generally, a higher and thicker vegetative barrier with full coverage will result in greater reductions in downwind pollutant concentrations. In the same manner, urban greening is also a way to help improve air quality and public health in addition to enhancing the overall beautification of a community with drought tolerant, low-maintenance greenery.

Clean Lawn and Garden Equipment in the Community

Since the Project consists of commercial development, gas-powered commercial lawn and garden equipment have the potential to result in an increase of NOx and PM2.5 emissions. Utilizing electric lawn care equipment can provide residents with immediate economic, environmental, and health benefits. The District recommends the Project proponent consider the District’s Clean Green Yard Machines (CGYM) program which provides incentive funding for replacement of existing gas powered lawn and garden equipment. More information on the District CGYM program and funding can be found at: http://www.valleyair.org/grants/cgym.htm and http://valleyair.org/grants/cgym-commercial.htm.

On-Site Solar Deployment

It is the policy of the State of California that renewable energy resources and zero- carbon resources supply 100% of retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2045. While various emission control techniques and programs exist to reduce air quality emissions from mobile and stationary sources, the production of solar energy is contributing to improving air quality and public

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 5 of 7 District Reference No: 20221286
September 30, 2022

health. The District suggests that the City consider incorporating solar power systems as an emission reduction strategy for the Project.

Electric Vehicle Chargers

To support and accelerate the installation of electric vehicle charging equipment and development of required infrastructure, the District offers incentives to public agencies, businesses, and property owners of multi-unit dwellings to install electric charging infrastructure (Level 2 and 3 chargers). The purpose of the District’s Charge Up! Incentive program is to promote clean air alternative-fuel technologies and the use of low or zero-emission vehicles. The District recommends that the City and project proponents install electric vehicle chargers at project sites, and at strategic locations.

Please visit www.valleyair.org/grants/chargeup.htm for more information.

District Rules and Regulations

The District issues permits for many types of air pollution sources, and regulates some activities that do not require permits. A project subject to District rules and regulations would reduce its impacts on air quality through compliance with the District’s regulatory framework. In general, a regulation is a collection of individual rules, each of which deals with a specific topic. As an example, Regulation II (Permits) includes District Rule 2010 (Permits Required), Rule 2201 (New and Modified Stationary Source Review), Rule 2520 (Federally Mandated Operating Permits), and several other rules pertaining to District permitting requirements and processes.

The list of rules below is neither exhaustive nor exclusive. Current District rules can be found online at: www.valleyair.org/rules/1ruleslist.htm. To identify other District rules or regulations that apply to future projects, or to obtain information about District permit requirements, the project proponents are strongly encouraged to contact the District’s Small Business Assistance (SBA) Office at (559) 230-5888.

District Rules 2010 and 2201 - Air Quality Permitting for Stationary Sources

Stationary Source emissions include any building, structure, facility, or installation which emits or may emit any affected pollutant directly or as a fugitive emission. District Rule 2010 (Permits Required) requires operators of emission sources to obtain an Authority to Construct (ATC) and Permit to Operate (PTO) from the District. District Rule 2201 (New and Modified Stationary Source Review) requires that new and modified stationary sources of emissions mitigate their emissions using Best Available Control Technology (BACT).

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 6 of 7 District Reference No: 20221286
September 30, 2022

This Project may be subject to District Rule 2010 (Permits Required) and Rule 2201 (New and Modified Stationary Source Review) and may require District permits. Prior to construction, the Project proponent should submit to the District an application for an ATC. For further information or assistance, the project proponent may contact the District’s SBA Office at (559) 230-5888.

District Rule 9510 - Indirect Source Review (ISR)

The District has reviewed the information provided and has determined the project size is below the District Rule 9510, section 2.1 applicability threshold of 20,000 square feet for a medical office development. Therefore, District Rule 9510 requirements and related fees do not apply to the project.

District Rule 4601 (Architectural Coatings)

The Project may be subject to District Rule 4601 since it may utilize architectural coatings. Architectural coatings are paints, varnishes, sealers, or stains that are applied to structures, portable buildings, pavements or curbs.
