​Air quality compliance in California can be challenging, especially for businesses like gas stations, oil and gas operations, and power plants. The process starts with obtaining the right permits from local air quality agencies, and larger facilities might also need federal permits. If a facility is new or being modified, there’s an extra step to ensure the changes won’t harm air quality.

Emissions modeling is an essential part of air quality compliance, helping facilities predict how their emissions will affect the environment and nearby communities. This involves using computer models to simulate the dispersion of pollutants, ensuring that operations meet regulatory standards. Simpler tasks, like Tier 2 modeling, provide basic estimates, while more detailed Tier 4 modeling involves in-depth, site-specific analysis, often required for larger facilities with higher emissions. Both ensure businesses accurately assess their impact and stay compliant with air quality rules.

Public notice regulations are an important part of air quality compliance in California, designed to keep the community, including residential, businesses, and schools, informed and involved. When a facility applies for permits and its emissions exceed certain limits, it must notify the public about the project’s details, potential environmental impacts, and plans to control emissions. This gives local residents and institutions such as schools the opportunity to review and provide feedback. Our team helps streamline this process for clients by preparing the necessary public notices, and ensuring all regulatory requirements are met efficiently, allowing projects to move forward smoothly and on time.
