Some appropriate procedures for determining potential cancer risk and total hazard index are presented in the CAPCOA "Air Toxics 'Hot Spots' Program Revised 1992 Risk Assessment Guidelines, October 1993", which is incorporated by reference herein.

(4) the facility is a wastewater treatment plant as described by SIC Code 4952, the facility does not have a sludge incinerator and the maximum throughput at the facility does not exceed 10,000,000 gallons per day unless a district required a health risk assessment and results show the facility would not qualify under Section 90702(c)(2).

(8) the facility was not required to conduct a risk assessment under Health and Safety Code Section 44360(b), and the district, or the facility with the concurrence of the district, has conducted a worst-case, health conservative risk assessment using screening air dispersion modeling criteria set forth in Appendix F of the Guidelines Report and has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the district that the facility's screening risk levels meet the criteria set forth in Section 90702(c)(2).
(d) For fiscal year 2001-2002, a facility shall be excluded from the fee schedule calculated in accordance with Section 90704(e)-(h) and from the fee schedule set forth in Table 3 if (1) it qualifies for exclusion pursuant to subdivision (c) of this section, (2) it is located in a district which has met the requirements of section 90704(b) and (3) the district has requested State Board adoption of a fee schedule.
