Comment | SUBJECT: Request for Extension April, 2009 EVR Deadline Dear Ms. Nichols, This letter is written to request your assistance in extending the EVR compliance deadline of April, 2009. The current deadline does not allow ample time to go through the permitting process, purchase the necessary materials and equipment, and hire contractors to complete the work. We currently operate thirteen locations in Southern California, one of which has the Healy EVR system with ISD. This system is both expensive and has numerous operational problems creating high maintenance costs. By extending the EVR compliance deadline, CARB will allow owner/operators the needed flexibility to comply with mandates in an orderly, cost-effective manner. Extending the deadline to four years from certification would allow the best, most cost effective systems to be identified, and would give sufficient time for permitting, training and installation. In the meantime, the balance systems we operate are tested and certified annually to insure that they continue to perform the vapor recovery task for which they were designed. We ask that CARB take action as soon as possible to avoid the logistical nightmare that is sure to occur if the deadline is not extended. Thank you. Sincerely, Bill Vance Vice President |
