All operators are required to comply with the provisions established by SB 1137 and the SB 1137 First Emergency Implementation Regulations. Sensitive receptor inventories and maps must comply with the content and format requirements outlined in CCR 1765.7 and 1765.8, and all operators are responsible for verifying that their inventories and maps are accurate and complete.<\/SPAN><\/P>

The StatusHPZ field values are defined as:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

  • \u201cPotential HPZ\u201d features represent HPZs created algorithmically from source inputs representing sensitive receptors.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  • \u201cVerified HPZ\u201d features represent HPZs created from verified sensitive receptors that have been quality checked by CalGEM.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  • \u201cNot Within HPZ\u201d features are areas quality checked to be outside known HPZ areas.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/UL>

    (b) For the purpose of this article, \u201cHealth Protection Zone\u201d means the area within 3,200 feet of a sensitive receptor. The measurement shall be made from the property line of the receptor unless the receptor building is more than 50 feet set back from the property line, in which case the measurement shall be made from the outline of the building footprint to 3,200 feet in all directions. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (2) An education resource, including a preschool, school maintaining transitional kindergarten, kindergarten, or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, daycare center, park, playground, university, and college. Where a university or college is the only sensitive receptor within 3,200 feet of the operator\u2019s wellheads or production facilities, the university or college is not a sensitive receptor if the operator demonstrates to the Division\u2019s satisfaction that no building with nominal daily occupancy on the university or college campus is located within 3,200 feet of the operator\u2019s wellheads or production facilities. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (d) A park is an education resource for purposes of subdivision (c) if it is an area that is open to the public for outdoor recreation that is at least partially within one-quarter mile of a residence or another education resource. Only the portion of a park that is within one-quarter mile of a residence or another education resource shall be considered a sensitive receptor. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (e) If a building is open to the public, then for purposes of subdivision (c) it is either a business that is open to the public or it is a community resource center.
