Preliminary Decision to Approve Emission
Reduction Credits for Wm. Bolthouse Farms, Inc.
The Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District (District)
has made a preliminary decision to approve emission reduction credits
for Wm. Bolthouse Farms, Inc. An emission reduction credit is earned by
a company when it reduces air emissions beyond what is required by
permits and rules. It is an asset that can be used by its owner or sold
to companies that need emission offsets. Emission reduction credit
amounts to be approved for Wm. Bolthouse Farms, Inc. are:
Oxides of Nitrogen 20.939 tons per year
Particulate Matter (PM) 0.152 tons per year
PM-10 0.146
tons per year
Wm. Bolthouse Farms, Inc. plans to create these emission reduction
credits by electrifying six diesel powered irrigation pump engines at
their ranches in the Cuyama area of Santa Barbara County. The District
finds that the proposed emission reductions credits meet the
requirements for approval pursuant to our Rules 804 and 806.
Files for this application are available for review at the District,
260 North San Antonio Road, Suite A, Santa Barbara, CA. The District’s
Preliminary Decision of Issuance No. 062 for this project is available
on this page on this page.
The District invites written comments on the proposed decision to
approve emission reduction credits. Written comments must be submitted
by 5:00 p.m., November 20, 2009 to: Brian P. Shafritz, Santa Barbara
County APCD, 260 North San Antonio Road, Suite A, Santa Barbara, CA
