SB 1039: Air resources: refinery-related community air monitoring system.
This bill aims to amend the existing air resources law to require a refinery-related community air monitoring system near each refinery. The system must include equipment capable of measuring compounds emitted from refinery processes. The bill also seeks to revise guidance for fence-line monitoring systems, allowing air districts to exclude pollutants for monitoring if substantial evidence supports certain considerations. This change would require air districts to revise their guidance, making the bill a state-mandated local program. The bill provides an exception for reimbursement, stating that no reimbursement is required for a specific reason.
