California Environmental Quality Act
Significance Thresholds for Greenhouse Gases
Summary
As required by the March, 2010 revisions to the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, new projects must be evaluated for their
potential impacts to climate change/greenhouse gas emissions. The Santa
Barbara County Air Pollution Control District (District) proposes to
adopt CEQA significance thresholds that will apply to stationary sources
subject to District permit requirements.
Public Review and Workshop
District staff has reviewed the ongoing efforts of local and state
agencies to address stationary source thresholds for greenhouse gasses,
and has analyzed greenhouse gas emissions from District regulated
stationary sources. Based on these reviews we are proposing thresholds
for stationary sources. We are holding a public workshop to receive
public input on our review to date and our current proposed direction.
For additional information on our review to date, please see
