Wildfires.

Existing law imposes various limitations on emissions of air contaminants for the control of air pollution from vehicular and nonvehicular sources. Existing law requires the State Air Resources Board to promulgate guidelines for the regulation and control of agricultural burning for each of the air basins established by the state board. Existing law requires the guidelines to be based in part on the probable effect of burning on the ambient air quality within the air basins affected. This bill would require the state board to annually report on the air pollutant emissions following an unplanned wildfire that has burned 10,000 acres or more, as specified. The bill would require the state board to post the annual report on its Internet Web site in a publicly accessible format.
