Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 42705.6 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to air resources.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law regarding air monitoring systems near petroleum refineries. Specifically, it adds a provision that prohibits the guidance adopted for the fence-line monitoring system, which is equipment used to detect emissions from a refinery, from requiring the monitoring of substances that the facility being monitored cannot produce. This change is intended to ensure that monitoring efforts are focused on relevant emissions. The bill also clarifies that if a community air monitoring system is used by a regional air district to monitor emissions from sources other than a refinery, the costs should be shared equitably. Because this bill requires air districts to revise their guidance, it is considered a state-mandated local program, but the bill states that no reimbursement is required for local agencies or school districts for any costs incurred due to this act.
