| If you receive
a Notice to Comply from AQMD, it means you are either in violation of the law or required
to furnish information. To resolve this minor violation you should:
-
Comply
with the instructions. 
-
Correct
your compliance problem(s) by the specified deadline date(s) shown on the Notice to Comply
form.
-
Complete and sign the ‘Reply Report’ portion of the notice.
   
     
If multiple minor violations are listed and you
correct them on different dates, it may be necessary for you to submit separate copies of
the Notice to Comply form within five (5) days after each respective minor violation is
corrected. You may photocopy the Notice to Comply as many times as necessary to make the
required report(s).
You may report the correction of more than one (1)
violation cited on a single ‘Reply Report.’ However, make sure that the copy of
the 'Reply Report’ is not submitted more than five (5) days after the earliest
correction date of any of the minor violations referred in your report.
Mail a copy of the Notice to Comply to the address
appearing on the notice form within five (5) days of correcting each compliance problem
listed in the notice.
Contact your AQMD Air Quality Inspector if you find
that you need additional time to correct a minor violation for which you have been cited.
Extensions may be granted by the Inspector, but for no longer than thirty (30) days beyond
the date when you were first cited.
File a petition for a variance from the AQMD Hearing Board (909 396-2500) if you need to continue operating in violation.
