Stephanie,

We need to include an addendum to the LRAPA proposal. I’ll draft one, to attach to the staff report, and send it to you. The addendum would be a minor change to the EQC motion. I’ll also send you the revised the PowerPoint presentation.

Subject: LRAPA rules--EQC consideration

Importance: High

Andrea: Larry Knudsen brought to my attention that the “DEQ recommendation to the EQC” for the LRAPA actions at next week’s EQC meeting need to be amended. The EQC is not adopting the LRAPA rules. The EQC is finding that the rules are no less strict than EQC-approved rules, approving the rules, and adopting an amendment to OAR 340200-0040 to incorporate the rules into the SIP. Here’s the language I would propose:

“DEQ recommends that the Environmental Quality Commission:

(1) Finds that the proposed rules are no less strict than any rule or standard of the Commission;

(2) Approves the proposed rules;

(3) Adopts the proposed amendment to OAR 340-200-0040 to incorporate the proposed rules into the Oregon Clean Air Act State Implementation Plan; and

(4) Directs DEQ to submit the proposed rules to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for approval.”

This revised recommendation may be provided to the EQC as an errata correction to the recommendation provided in the EQC’s packet.

Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to discuss this further.
