(APCD Hearing Board approves Abatement order)...It is on the Red Hill Bay.
The County APCD Hearing Board unanimously approved the stipulated order for abatement for the Red Hill Bay site near the Salton Sea, addressing dust control measures on playa exposed at the Red Hill Bay sitr due to shrinking Salton Sea. Last week, the County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to delegate authority to Air Pollution Control Officer Matt Dessert, to enter into the settlement agreement and release, contingent on issuance of the stipulated order for abatement. Both the County APCD and the Imperial Irrigation District were in agreement with actions identified in the order. Within the order, IID agrees to install, operate, and maintain Best Available Control Measures on the Red Hill Bay site.
