CA AB1132

Authorizes air pollution control officers to issue interim orders for abatement when they find a person is causing imminent and substantial endangerment to public health, welfare, or the environment by violating air quality requirements or operating without required permits

Requires officers to make reasonable efforts to meet and confer with the person and attempt to agree on a stipulated interim order before issuing an interim order

Requires the air district to schedule an abatement hearing within 3 business days of receiving a notice of defense, with the hearing completed within 30 days or the interim order is rescinded unless a preliminary determination of endangerment has been made

Interim orders remain in effect until the hearing board makes a final determination within 14 days of hearing completion; if not transmitted within this period, the order expires

Air pollution control officers cannot delegate this interim order authority, though a designated interim officer may exercise it if the regular officer is unavailable
