Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Program
In accordance with the California Air Toxic "Hot Spots" Program, SDAPCD is required to implement public notification and risk reduction requirements through District Rule 1210. The SDAPCD Air Toxic "Hot Spots" Mapping Tool shows the most current information related to facilities in which a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is required for the "Hot Spots" program.
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) published a mapping tool
under its California Air Toxics Assessment (CATA) Program. According
to CARB, CATA represents a comprehensive state-of-the-science
assessment of toxic air contaminants (TACs) in California. CATA is a
unique model-based approach that leverages CARB’s comprehensive TACs
emissions inventory and state-of-the-science modeling techniques to
estimate ambient concentrations of Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM),
heavy metals, and toxic Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which are
used to estimate cumulative cancer risk following OEHHA guidelines for
inhalation exposure. CATA results are scalable from statewide averages
down to the community level (census block/tract averages), which may
be different from maximum cumulative risk at a specific location
within a census block/tract. CATA is updated on a triennial basis and
will incorporate EICG reported data through the Comprehensive
California Toxics Inventory (CTI) as it becomes available.
Please visit the CARB CATA webpage or read their Frequently Asked Questions for additional information.
