Case-by-Case Determinations: Lawn and Garden Equipment Replacement

Reference # 2012-29
Request: Allow the use of a seller's permit to justify the minimum 2-year California business license requirement for lawn mower merchants under Lawn and Garden
Air District: Bay Area AQMD
Guidelines Section(s): 2011 Guidelines, Chapter 14, Section C.7(B)(1)
ARB Action: Approved

Determination: The Guidelines require that the merchant have a minimum 2-year business license in California. Although, the current merchant RW Direct, a division of Positec, Inc., has held a valid California business license since April 2011, it does not meet the 2-year requirement. The District has provided additional documentation to justify this request by submitting the seller's permit under the former merchant title DR Division, also a division of Positec, Inc., and predecessor to RW Direct. This evidence substantiates the request and thus meets the requirements of the Carl Moyer Program Guidelines.
