CONSENT CALENDAR (Items 1 through 23)
Note: Consent Calendar items held for discussion will be
moved to Item No. 24.
1. Minutes of July 9, 2004 Board Meeting
McDaniel (909) 396-2500
 (smcdaniel@aqmd.gov)
2. Set Public Hearings September 3, 2004 to Consider Amendments and/or
Adoption to AQMD Rules and Regulations
Wallerstein (909) 396-3131
(bwallerstein@aqmd.gov)
(A) Amend Rule 1121 - Control of Nitrogen Oxides from Residential Type,
Natural Gas-Fired Water Heaters
Chang (909) 396-3186
(echang@aqmd.gov)
Rule 1121 was amended in December 1999 to lower the emission limits for
water heaters. Manufacturers submitted an interim report relative to their
progress in meeting the final emission limit and staff provided a summary of
this information and recommendations at the January 9, 2004 Board Meeting. In
order for equipment manufacturers to address other national regulatory
requirements and technical and manufacturing issues, staff is proposing to
delay implementation of the final rule limit one to three years depending upon
the size and type of the water heater and to modify the mitigation fee
program. This item also serves as a notice of intent to make infeasibility
findings, as required in the settlement agreement for the 1999 AQMP amendment.
(Review: Stationary Source Committee, July 23, 2004)
(B) Amend Rule 2007 - Trading Requirements
Chang (909) 396-3186
(echang@aqmd.gov)
The current version of Rule 2007 removes power producing facility trading
restrictions after September 1, 2004. To address CARB concerns regarding
reintroducing power plants to the trading market, this proposal contains a
provision to lift the trading restrictions, contingent upon other RECLAIM rule
amendments (currently scheduled for November 2004) that will decrease
allocations to implement the 2003 AQMP Control Measure CMB-10 and to reflect
best available retrofit control technology(BARCT). (Review: Stationary Source
Committee, June 25, 2004 and July 23, 2004)

Headquarters
Tharp (909) 396-3018
etharp@aqmd.gov
The current contract for Diamond Bar headquarters security guard services
expires September 9, 2004. On April 2, 2004, the Board approved release of an
RFP to solicit proposals from firms interested in providing these services for
the next three-year period. This action is to execute a three-year contract with
Contact Security, Inc., for a total amount not to exceed $1,100,015. Funding has
been included in the FY 2004-05 Budget and will be requested in successive
fiscal years. (Review: Administrative Committee, July 16, 2004)
4. Revise AQMD Policy on Military Leave Pay and Sign Statement of Support
for Reservist Employment Rights
Tharp (909) 396-3018
etharp@aqmd.gov
Current policy concerning pay for employees temporarily called to active
military duty provides up to 30 days of full pay followed by up to an additional
150 days of the difference between AQMD pay and military pay. As a result of
lengthened active duty assignments, it is recommended that the period for
receiving the difference between AQMD and military pay be extended to 690 days,
for a total supplemental pay period of 720 days. Additionally, it is recommended
that AQMD sign a statement in support of military reservist employment rights
provided by the National Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and
Reserve. Both of these actions have been recommended by Board Member Antonovich.
(Review: Administrative Committee, July 16, 2004)
5. Adopt Resolution Amending Hearing Board Compensation (Continued from
the July 9, 2004 Board Meeting)
Tharp (909) 396-3018
etharp@aqmd.gov
Hearing Board members have not had a cost-of-living pay adjustment since
1992. To retain and attract qualified members, the Personnel Committee
recommends that, effective July 1, 2004, Hearing Board members and their
alternates receive a seven-percent pay adjustment. This adjustment is intended
to recognize cost-of-living increases since 1992, doing so within current
budgetary constraints. The cost of these adjustments for FY 2004-05 is
approximately $18,815. (Review: Personnel Committee, June 1, 2004;
Administrative Committee, June 18, 2004)
6. Approve Salary Adjustment for District Counsel
Tharp (909) 396-3018
etharp@aqmd.gov
