AB 1338

Existing law requires, on or before January 1, 2027, an air pollution control district or an air quality management district the jurisdiction of which includes metal shredding facilities, in consultation with the Department of Toxic Substances Control and the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment to develop requirements for facilitywide fence-line air quality monitoring at metal shredding facilities, as defined. Existing law authorizes any reasonable regulatory costs incurred by a district in implementing these provisions to be reimbursed pursuant to the fee authority of the district. This bill would require, rather than authorize, any reasonable regulatory costs incurred by a district in implementing these provisions to be reimbursed by the owner or operator of a metal shredding facility.
