Purpose of the meeting
A public hearing on a proposed variance to the open burning rule (Article 40 of 9 VAC 5 Chapter 40, Rule 4-40). The proposal consists of a variance from existing regulation provisions for the control of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) to the atmosphere from open burning conducted in the affected localities. The variance will temporarily relieve the affected localities from immediate compliance with the seasonal restrictions in 9 VAC 5-40-5630 A 8 and 10 of the open burning rule by requiring a phased-in compliance. Estimated local impact as a result of this action is expected to be minimal. The localities particularly affected are the County of Gloucester and the County of Isle of Wight.
