Background
State legislation was enacted in 1988 authorizing the California Clean Air Act. The State of California Air Resources Board has utilized this location since 1996 for the purpose of air monitoring.
Reason for Recommendation
The State of California Clean Air Act has been in effect since 1988 and the State of California Air Resources Board has utilized this site since 1996 for the monitoring of ozone and carbon monoxide to meet the pollution monitoring requirements of the State legislation. El Dorado County outside of the Lake Tahoe Basin was designated as unclassified for ozone and carbon monoxide. Areas designated as unclassified, had inadequate data to determine either attainment or non attainment status, thus requiring ambient air quality monitoring to be conducted.
The Right of Entry Indemnification License Agreement shall commence on August 1, 2013 and end July 31, 2014. The utilities shall be obtained and paid for by the State of California Air Resources Board.
Action(s) to be taken following Board approval
