On August 10th, 2016, the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) held a Public Workshop and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Scoping Session for proposed changes to the Air Toxics program.

See Alta’s June Newsletter for a full description of the proposed changes. No significant changes to the previously proposed rules and staff documents were presented during the public workshop. The proposed amendments appear to be on track for finalization in the next few months. SCAQMD’s rule development schedule is as follows:
