An act relating to air quality.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1062, as introduced, Dahle. Air quality standards: idled biomass facilities: emissions technology.

Existing law imposes various limitations on emissions of air contaminants for the control of air pollution from vehicular and nonvehicular sources. Existing law generally designates the State Air Resources Board as the state agency with the primary responsibility for the control of vehicular air pollution, and air pollution control districts and air quality management districts with the primary responsibility for the control of air pollution from all sources other than vehicular sources.

This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact subsequent legislation relating to idled biomass facilities that are in need of new emissions technology in order to meet current air quality standards.
