Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024
(a) A sensitive receptor map submitted by an operator to satisfy the requirements of this article shall conform to the following content specifications.
(1) The scope of the map shall encompass the following:
(A) If the map is submitted in connection with a notice of intention under Public Resources Code section 3203, then the scope of the map may be limited to identification of sensitive receptors based on the location of the wellhead or proposed wellhead associated with that notice of intention.
(B) If the map is submitted in connection with a New Production Facility Notice under Section 1765.5, then the scope of the map may be limited to identification of sensitive receptors based on the location of the production facility or proposed production facility associated with that New Production Facility Notice.
(C) If the map is submitted in connection with an annual map submission under Public Resources Code section 3285, then the scope of the map shall include identification of sensitive receptors based on the location of all of the operator's wellheads and production facilities, consistent with Section 1765.6.
(2) Each wellhead, proposed wellhead, production facility, and proposed production facility identified on the map shall be marked by a symbol that displays its location on the map relative to any sensitive receptors identified on the map. If the production facility or proposed production facility is a pipeline, then there shall also be a line on the map that marks the path of the pipeline.
(b) A sensitive receptor map submitted by an operator to satisfy the requirements of this article shall conform to the following format specifications.
(1) The map shall be presented in a letter-sized (8.5" x 11") layout.
(2) The map shall include a descriptive title and a legend that identifies all symbols used on the map, the map scale, and any other information pertinent to understanding the map.
(3) All annotations and other text on the map shall be arranged so as not to significantly obscure visual representation of the wellheads, production facilities, buildings, and any other important features depicted on the map.
(4) The map scale shall be as follows:
(A) If the map is submitted in connection with a notice of intention under Public Resources Code section 3203, or a New Production Facility Notice under Section 1765.5, then the map scale shall be no greater than 1:12,000.
(B) If the map is submitted in connection with an annual map submission under Public Resources Code section 3285, then the map scale shall be no greater than 1:24,000.
(5) The map shall be formatted as a Portable Document Format file (.pdf) and have a resolution of at least 300 dots per inch.
(c) An operator may submit two or more maps corresponding to a single sensitive receptor inventory if a single map of the size and scale specifications described in subdivision (b) is insufficient to depict the spatial relationships between the sensitive receptors and the wellheads, proposed wellheads, production facilities, and proposed production facilities.
(d) If an operator submits more than one map to the Division under this article, then the operator shall submit a larger-scale overview map showing how each of the separate maps relate.
(e) A sensitive receptor map submitted by an operator to satisfy the requirements of this article shall not associate the name of any individual person with any addresses, coordinates, or other location information for sensitive receptors depicted on the map.
