Learn about the Air District's development process for amendments to Regulation 8, Rule 8, which would further address emissions from wastewater treatment systems at refineries.
Find out about the status of the rule development process. Information on hearings, workshops, and other events is provided below.
The Air District developed amendments to Regulation 8: Organic Compounds, Rule 8: Wastewater Collection and Separation Systems (Rule 8-8) to further address emissions from wastewater treatment systems at refineries. The Air District's AB 617 Expedited Best Available Retrofit Control Technology (BARCT) Implementation Schedule identified the need to further evaluate and consider additional efforts to address emissions of organic compounds from these sources.
In October 2023, the Air District released a Notice of Public Hearing, proposed amendments to Rule 8-8, and Staff Report, along with a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Notice of Intent (NOI) and CEQA Initial Study and Negative Declaration, accepting written public comments on these materials. The Air District released the Final Proposal Package, including the proposed amendments to Rule 8-8, Final Staff, Report, CEQA Initial Study and Negative Declaration, and Response to Comments.
On December 20, 2023, the Air District Board of Directors conducted a public hearing and adopted the proposed amendments and a CEQA Negative Declaration. Information and a recording of the public hearing can be found on this page in the 'Hearings, Workshops and Other Events' table below.
