National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Surface
Coating of Wood Building Products
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action promulgates national emission standards for
hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) for wood building products surface
coating operations. The final standards establish emission limitations,
operating limits, and work practice requirements for all major sources
that apply a surface coating to a wood building product to reduce
certain organics listed as hazardous air pollutants (HAP) in section
112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). These standards implement section
112(d) of the CAA by requiring all major sources to meet the HAP
emission standards reflecting the application of the maximum achievable
control technology (MACT).
Wood building products surface coating operations emit several HAP,
including xylenes, toluene, ethyl benzene, ethylene glycol monobutyl
ether (EGBE), other glycol ethers, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), methyl
isobutyl ketone (MIBK), methanol, styrene, and formaldehyde. We do not
have the type of current detailed data on each of the facilities
covered by the final rule and the people living around the facilities
that would be necessary to conduct an analysis to determine the actual
population exposures to the HAP emitted from these facilities and
potential for resultant health effects. Therefore, we do not know the
extent to which the adverse health effects described above occur in the
populations surrounding these facilities. However, to the extent the
adverse effects do occur, the final rule will reduce emissions and
subsequent exposures. The final rule will reduce HAP emissions by
approximately 4,400 megagrams per year (Mg/yr) (4,900 tons per year
(tpy)) or by 63 percent from baseline.
EFFECTIVE DATE: May 28, 2003. The incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in the final rule is approved by the Director of
the Federal Register as of May 28, 2003.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Regulated Entities. The source category,
which is divided into the five subcategories listed in Table 1 of this
preamble, includes sources that apply coatings to wood building
products. In general, these sources are covered under the North
American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes listed in Table
1. However, sources classified under other NAICS codes may be subject
to the final rule. Not all sources classified under the NAICS codes in
Table 1 will be subject to the final rule because some of the
classifications cover products outside the scope of the NESHAP for wood
building products.

I. Background
A. What Is the Source of Authority for Development of NESHAP?
Section 112 of the CAA requires us to list categories and
subcategories of major sources and area sources of HAP and to establish
NESHAP for the listed source categories and subcategories. The Flatwood
Paneling (Surface Coating) category of major sources was listed on
July, 16, 1992 (57 FR 31576) under the Surface Coating Processes
industry group. The name of the source category was subsequently
changed to Wood Building Products (Surface Coating) on November 18,
1999 (64 FR 63025) to reflect more accurately the types of surface
coating operations currently used in the industry. Major sources of HAP
are those that emit or have the potential to emit equal to or greater
than 9.1 Mg/yr (10 tpy) of any one HAP or 22.7 Mg/yr (25 tpy) of any
combination of HAP.
B. What Criteria Did We Use in the Development of NESHAP?
Section 112 of the CAA requires that we establish NESHAP for the
control of HAP from both new or reconstructed and existing major
sources. The CAA requires the NESHAP to reflect the maximum degree of
reduction in emissions of HAP that is achievable. This level of control
is commonly referred to as the MACT.
The MACT floor is the minimum control level allowed for NESHAP and
is defined under section 112(d)(3) of the CAA. In essence, the MACT
floor ensures that the standard is set at a level that assures that all
major sources achieve the level of control at least as stringent as
that already achieved by the better-controlled and lower-emitting
sources in each source category or subcategory. For new or
reconstructed sources, the MACT floor cannot be less stringent than the
emission control that is achieved in practice by the best-controlled
similar source. The MACT standards for existing sources can be less
stringent than standards for new or reconstructed sources, but they
cannot be less stringent than the average emission limit achieved by
the best-performing 12 percent of existing sources in the category or
subcategory (or the best-performing five sources for categories or
subcategories with fewer than 30 sources).
In developing MACT, we also consider control options that are more
stringent than the floor. We may establish standards more stringent
than the floor based on the consideration of the cost of achieving the
emission reductions, any non-air quality health and environmental
impacts, and energy requirements.
II. What Changes and Clarifications Have We Made for the Final
Standards?
In response to the public comments received on the proposed
standards, we made several changes for the final rule. The substantive
comments, our responses, and associated rule edits are summarized in
the following sections. A more detailed summary can be found in the
Summary of Public Comments and Responses document, which is available
from several sources (see Addresses section).
A. Applicability
Several commenters requested a clarification of zero-HAP coatings,
thinners, and cleaning solvents. They cited the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) de minimis level for reporting HAP-
containing materials as greater than 1
[[Page 31748]]
percent for noncarcinogens or greater than 0.1 percent for carcinogens.
The use of this de minimis level for HAP reporting was implied because
the data used to set the MACT floor was submitted under the same
guidelines. Accordingly, language has been included in the final
preamble and rule to clarify that coatings with HAP contents below 1
percent for noncarcinogens and 0.1 percent for carcinogens are
considered to be zero-HAP materials.
Although affected sources are not required to report detailed HAP
content information on these zero-HAP materials, inclusion of these
materials could be beneficial to meeting the applicable rolling 12-
month emission limit(s). Coatings that contain no HAP usually contain
some amount of solid material that will help to lower the organic HAP
emission rate for the 12-month compliance period.
Several commenters requested specific exclusions for products or
coatings that may have been included in the MACT floor determination
but do not fit into the wood building products surface coating source
category. Specifically, commenters cited coatings called tempering oils
(such as linseed, tall, tung, soy, otaseka, and other drying oils or
mixtures of such oils) which would be regulated as part of the proposed
plywood and composite wood products NESHAP (68 FR 1275, January 9,
2003). In response to these comments, we excluded drying or tempering
oils from the final rule. Please refer to Sec. 68.4681(c)(1) of the
final rule which lists processes that will most likely be covered by
the proposed plywood and composite wood products NESHAP.
Some commenters referred to specific products that they believed
should not be subject to the requirements of the wood building products
surface coating source category. These included asphalt-coated
fiberboard and cellulosic ceiling tiles. Commenters asserted that
neither product is coated with HAP-containing materials and that
regulating such products would be burdensome for recordkeeping
purposes.
We further evaluated the types of coatings and processes used to
make asphalt-coated fiberboard, also called ``builders board'' or
``insulation board,'' and found that only a few facilities in the
United States make these products, with varying manufacturing and
coating processes. With regards to the coatings used on fiberboard
products, the asphalt material can be included as part of the emulsion
used in the fiberboard forming or manufacturing process, or the asphalt
(mixed with mineral spirits) can be applied to the fiberboard
substrate. Depending on the company and the process, the coating can be
applied before the final dryer or after the final dryer with the
product allowed to air dry, usually outdoors on racks.
Ceiling tiles are usually coated using slurries of titanium dioxide
and various clays. Although non-HAP wetting agents or defoamers are
occasionally added, there are no organic solvents used. These coatings
cure by drying and not by chemical reaction and are considered durable
only for dry, non-contact indoor exposure.
Because of the small number of facilities coating these products
and the fact that most of the coatings associated with these types of
products are applied during the substrate forming process (e.g., to the
wet mat being formed) or prior to the final substrate drying operation,
fiberboard coating operations (including those used in the manufacture
of asphalt-coated fiberboard and ceiling tiles) would be covered under
the proposed plywood and composite wood products NESHAP. For this
reason, these products will not be subject to the final rule for the
surface coating of wood building products.
Several commenters requested more research concerning the low-
coating usage cutoff, suggesting that the cutoff should be higher. The
low-usage cutoff was based on the total annual coating usage of the
smallest facility in the MACT floor database. All facilities in the
database have annual coating usages above 4,170 liters (1,100 gallons).
Available data indicate that the coating application processes and
control technologies being considered are appropriate for all sources
with at least this level of coatings usage. Considering that the
surveyed sources in the database included a cross section of various
companies, products, and locations, we do not believe that collecting
additional data would raise this cutoff. Therefore, no changes have
been made to the low-coating usage cutoff.
While we cannot justify raising the low usage amount or
establishing low usage cutoffs for individual subcategories, additional
language has been included in the final rule to exempt sources that are
not commercial manufacturers of wood building products. The final rule
is intended to apply only to commercial manufacturers, which are the
types of facilities represented in our database.
Several commenters requested exemptions for sources that laminate
paper or vinyl to composite wood products. Although we agree with the
commenters that HAP emissions from wood laminating processes are
typically low at the present time, an exclusion is not justified
because future coating technologies could increase HAP emissions. To
further clarify applicability, laminates applied prior to pressing of
the substrate would be covered by the proposed plywood and composite
wood products NESHAP, and the laminates applied after pressing of the
substrate are covered by the wood building products (surface coating)
NESHAP.
Commenters stated that the proposed definition of ``wood building
product'' excludes the majority of the wooden windows and doors
manufactured due to the weight characteristic. In response, we have
written the definition of ``wood building product'' to exclude the
weight of glass components. A wood building product is now defined as
any product that contains more than 50 percent by weight wood or wood
fiber, excluding the weight of glass components, and is used in the
construction, either interior or exterior, of a residential,
commercial, or institutional building.
As a result of comments received, the application of the rule to
antifungal coatings was evaluated. Because these coatings can be
applied during many different stages of production, we have clarified
the applicability of the final rule to these coatings. Antifungal
coatings will be covered by the wood building products surface coating
NESHAP if they are applied after the substrate manufacturing process.
Several commenters requested that the final rule be written such
that the HAP limits apply only to HAP that are released to the
atmosphere, recognizing that some HAP in the coatings are not emitted
(i.e., styrene, dibutylphthalate, ethyleneimines (aziridines), and Bis
2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP)). The data collection activities and
subsequent MACT floor determinations were made using the assumption
that all volatile organic HAP are emitted, i.e., organic HAP content of
the coatings is equivalent to HAP emitted.
We realize that in a few cases, such as the four compounds
identified by the commenters, our assumption is not totally accurate
because a small fraction of the total HAP may be tied up in the
coating. However, we believe that the 12-month rolling average emission
limits provide an adequate time frame for such special coatings to be
used and averaged in with the other coatings and still meet the
emission limits.
Due to these reasons, we do not believe special compliance
alternatives are warranted for a few compounds used in some coatings.
Affected sources can use alternative test procedures to
[[Page 31749]]
demonstrate a lower HAP emissions value for a particular coating.
B. Overlap With Other NESHAP
Many commenters were concerned about the large potential for the
wood building products surface coating source category to overlap with
other NESHAP, specifically the promulgated wood furniture manufacturing
NESHAP (60 FR 62930, December 7, 1995) and the proposed miscellaneous
metal parts and products coating NESHAP (67 FR 52780, August 13, 2002).
Two commenters wanted some way to consolidate all coating operations in
order to be subject to only one NESHAP. One of these two commenters
stated that 97 percent of the coatings used by his company, a window
manufacturing facility, are applied to metal (aluminum) windows, and
the remaining 3 percent of the coatings are applied to wood components
of the windows. The second commenter said that 95 percent of the
coatings used by his facility are applied to wood furniture components,
and the remaining 5 percent of the coatings are applied to interior
panels.
In response to these comments, we have included a provision to the
applicability section of the final rule. This new language states that
an affected source that could be subject to more than one coating
NESHAP, and that has one type of surface coating operation that
accounts for at least 95 percent of the total (annual) coating usage at
the source, has the option of complying with the requirements of the
predominant coating rule (including all applicable emissions
limitations, operating limits, and work practice requirements) for all
coating operations that would be subject to a NESHAP.
We are allowing the small amount of coating (less than 5 percent of
the total usage) to be regulated at the same level(s) as the majority
(at least 95 percent) of coating usage to simplify applicability
determinations and recordkeeping and reporting for those sources. With
this applicability provision, the two sources described above would be
allowed to comply with the emission limits for the proposed
miscellaneous metal parts NESHAP and the promulgated wood furniture
manufacturing NESHAP, respectively, for all of their coating
operations.
According to our data, very few sources will be able to take
advantage of this predominant activity option. For this reason, we
expect any emissions increase that could occur (where the emission
limits in the predominant NESHAP are less stringent than the limits in
the other applicable NESHAP) to be very small.
C. Subcategories
Several commenters requested additional guidance on the correct
classification of moulding and trim. Originally, mouldings were
classified according to the final use of the moulding. Commenters
stated that the same moulding or trim could go around windows and
doors, be used as baseboards, as trim between ceilings and walls, or as
chair railing. To eliminate the classification of different types of
moulding and trim into different subcategories, we have included all
moulding and trim in one subcategory. However, this classification
still excludes moulding and trim associated with wood cabinets and
other types of wood furniture (which are subject to the promulgated
wood furniture manufacturing NESHAP, subpart JJ). This change also
involved the renaming of two subcategories. The proposed ``windows and
doors'' subcategory has become the ``doors, windows, and
miscellaneous'' subcategory and will include all moulding, trim,
millwork, and miscellaneous products that do not fit in the other
subcategories. The proposed ``exterior siding, doorskins, and
miscellaneous'' subcategory has become the ``exterior siding and primed
doorskins'' subcategory. As a result, the MACT floor emission limits
were recalculated and are included in the final rule.
Several commenters were concerned with overlap among subcategories.
The commenters described scenarios where facilities are coating
multiple products, but did not provide data or specifics on any known
facilities. Issues related to coating requirements for various products
were considered when we developed the five subcategories and served as
the basis for many of those decisions. According to our database, there
are no facilities that are potentially subject to more than one
subcategory emission limit. Because subcategories were created to
accommodate unique differences in performance criteria that indicated a
need for different HAP contents (based on the information provided by
the various industry segments in the database), we believe it is not
appropriate to combine operations under separate subcategories.
Therefore, we are not allowing a source to choose one emission limit
based on the amount of coating used in a predominant subcategory and
apply that same limit to another subcategory.
Several commenters requested additional or reorganized
subcategories to simplify enforcement. We do not agree with the
commenters and believe the subcategorization scheme adopted for this
source category is appropriate and complete. All subcategories were
evaluated with respect to product performance requirements, associated
coating usage, organic HAP emissions, coating application equipment,
and control device applicability. Each subcategory showed technical
differences within one or more of these criteria. For additional
information, see Docket A-97-52.
Several commenters requested reevaluation of the MACT floors due to
the addition of new products such as topcoated doorskins. These
products require coatings with a higher level of HAP content or more
layers of coatings than products used in the MACT analysis. Although
separating these types of topcoated or finished doorskins from the
``exterior siding and primed doorskins'' subcategory could cause
sources that coat doorskins to comply with two separate emission
limits, we agree that the additional layers of coatings required for
finished doorskins are likely to have higher HAP emissions than primed
doorskins. We also agree that finished doorskins have more demanding
and stringent performance requirements than primed-only doorskins. In
response, we have included finished doorskins in the ``doors, windows,
and miscellaneous'' subcategory where the exterior climate performance
requirements associated with all doors and windows have been accounted
for with the higher emission limits.
Several commenters also requested subcategories related to color
coatings due to the increased use of these coatings since the MACT
analysis was begun. Because the commenters offered no explanation for
the differences between color and clear coatings, we can only consider
the fact that business decisions were made to add color coatings. This
alone is not a compelling technical reason to subcategorize differently
or to change the MACT floors. The data used to determine subcategories
and the applicable MACT floor level of control were the best
information available to EPA at the time. Production is updated
continuously for various reasons, and changing the MACT floor
determination based on constantly changing conditions would not be
appropriate.
D. MACT Limits
Several commenters disagreed with the zero HAP emission limits that
were established for the NESHAP. Specifically, the commenters felt that
the MACT limits should contain at least two significant figures to
account for the
[[Page 31750]]
presence of a small amount of HAP in what we have described as non-HAP
coatings. To address these concerns and to clarify that the MACT limits
are not absolute zero for some new sources, the final rule includes a
change in the metric units from kilogram HAP/liter solids to grams HAP/
liter solids where the value is rounded to the nearest integer.
Several commenters argued that metric units should not be used to
demonstrate compliance. The use of metric units instead of English
units is based on Federal government policy (the Metric Conversion Act
of 1975 as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of
1988). While metric units are included, compliance is not required
through metric units because the MACT floor determination used English
units. Accordingly, we have included language stating that compliance
can be demonstrated using either English or metric units.
E. Test Methods
One commenter noticed that some ASTM test methods have been
updated. The listed test methods have been updated and incorporated by
reference in the final rule.
Several commenters asked for clarification on using methods
specified by the NESHAP for determining certain qualities of the
coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials. As a result, we included
provisions in the final rule that owners or operators are allowed to
submit an alternative technique if the test methods specified in the
final rule are insufficient to determine the specified qualities. For
mass fraction of organic HAP, the final rule has been written to allow
resolution of any discrepancies between the test methods for
determining the mass fraction of organic HAP versus formulation data
through consultation with the regulatory compliance authority.
Many commenters also expressed confusion regarding the use of
Method 24 as an alternative to Method 311. According to the commenters,
Method 24 requires that the water content of the coating be determined
and subtracted from the total volatile content. This determination
contains greater variability than the limit in the final rule for
existing and new sources that fall into the ``other interior panels''
and the ``exterior siding and primed doorskins'' subcategories and new
sources that fall into the ``interior panels and tileboard''
subcategory. Therefore, the final rule includes the provision that
Method 24 will not be used for those coatings with a water content that
would result in an effective detection limit greater than the
applicable emission limit.
Two commenters disagreed with the use of a helium gas pycnometer to
determine the volume fraction of coating solids (which is required by
ASTM D 6093). Section 63.4741(b) of the proposal provided two options
for determining the volume fraction of coating solids (nonvolatiles)
for each coating: (1) Use of either of the two referenced ASTM methods
(D2697-86 (Reapproved 1998) or D6093-97), or (2) use of information
from the supplier or manufacturer of the material. In response to the
commenters' concerns, a third option has been included in the final
rule that allows the amount of coating solids to be calculated using
the total volatile matter content of the coating and the average
density of the volatile matter in the coating. If these values cannot
be determined using one of the specified methods, the owner or operator
may submit an alternative technique for determining their values for
approval by the Administrator.
Several commenters asked that the final rule clearly specify
whether compliance demonstration calculations are to be rounded or
truncated to the number of decimal places specified in the emission
limit. The commenters recommended that results be truncated to three
digits after the decimal.
In response, language has been included in the final rule that
specifies that compliance is demonstrated by rounding the rolling 12-
month emission rate (to two decimal places for English units and the
nearest integer for metric units), and not by rounding the individual
numbers used to determine the rolling 12-month rolling emission rate.
F. Cost and Economic Assumptions and Impacts
Due to changes in the MACT floor emission limits for the ``other
interior panels'' subcategory and changes to the number of estimated
affected sources in the ``exterior siding and primed doorskins'' and
``doors, windows, and miscellaneous'' subcategories, the overall
industry cost impacts have changed to $22.5 million.
G. Compliance Procedures
Several commenters noted a discrepancy between the proposed Sec.
63.4692(b)(ii) and (iii). Section 63.4692(b)(ii) reduces the data to
block averages, but Sec. 63.4692(b)(iii) maintains the 3-hour average
combustion temperature at or above the limit. We made corresponding
changes to Table 3 to Subpart QQQQ to Part 63 to read, ``maintain the
3-hour block average'' wherever warranted.
Several commenters disagreed with the omission of control devices
other than thermal oxidation. The commenters recommended that
provisions for biofilters and other innovative technologies be added to
compliance Option 3. Compliance Option 3 does not preclude the use of
biofilters or other control technologies. You may submit your request
for any innovative control technology to the Administrator for
approval. Plans for monitoring and recordkeeping requirements should be
submitted along with such proposals.
Based on the type and level of HAP emissions at most wood building
product surface coating operations, we do not consider biofilters as a
likely control technology to be applied to such emission sources.
Therefore, specific operating limits and compliance procedures for
biofilters have not been included in the final rule. However, the
proposed plywood and composite wood products rule (68 FR 1275, January
9, 2003) does include specific operating limits and compliance
procedures for biofilters, and these can be used as examples when
submitting your request for an alternative control technology.
H. Control Device Operating Limit Requirements
Several commenters stated that the proposed rule does not specify
how to account for equipment start ups, shut downs or malfunctions in
the calculation of the 3-hour averages used to determine compliance
with operating limits for add-on control devices. The commenters
suggested that the rule specify that the operating data collected when
the control device is ``not receiving emissions'' not be included in
the 3-hour average calculations. We have included language in the final
rule to exclude monitoring data from the 3-hour average calculation
that was generated during periods when the control device was not
receiving emissions.
Several commenters disagreed with the requirement for periodically
adjusting the air-to-fuel ratio for catalytic oxidizers. The commenters
stated that adding this requirement to the inspection and maintenance
plan has no performance benefit. The purpose of the inspection and
maintenance plan is to assure that the catalytic oxidizer operates at
the conditions that will achieve or exceed the emission destruction
efficiency for the control device demonstrated by the performance test.
Based on our review, we concluded that a requirement for
[[Page 31751]]
periodic adjustment of the air-to-fuel ratio is not needed to assure
compliance of a catalytic oxidizer. We have written the final rule to
exclude the requirement for periodically adjusting the air-to-fuel
ratio in the inspection and maintenance plan.
Several commenters stated that the catalyst test procedures should
be worked out between the facility and the catalyst test provider, not
the manufacturer or supplier as specified in the inspection and
maintenance plan requirements. We agree that the catalyst test
providers should be consulted. The catalyst test provider will test the
catalyst after the performance test to determine any catalyst
degradation that may have occurred in the period after the performance
testing. Although this is not required for compliance, it may be
beneficial to test the catalyst at the time of the performance test to
determine a baseline for future catalyst testing.
I. Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction (SSM)
One commenter stated that bypass lines are often used in situations
that are not considered malfunctions. In certain situations, operation
of the control device is not always necessary to meet the emission
limit. This situation can occur on a coating line that is used for
coating operations covered by different compliance options conducted at
different times. If the coatings used on one product comply with the
applicable emission limit (e.g. compliant coatings option), the source
may prefer to bypass the control device to lower annual expenses
associated with operating the air pollution control system. This
situation is not a malfunction and would not be addressed in the
source's SSM plan.
The final rule explicitly states that requirements for the use of
bypass lines apply during periods that ``controlled'' coating
operations are being conducted. The language assures continuous
compliance with the applicable emission limit at those sources electing
to use Option 3 to comply with the emission limit using a capture and
control device system that is equipped with a bypass line.
J. Recordkeeping and Reporting
Several commenters requested fewer recordkeeping and calculation
requirements for coatings that have no HAP content. We agree that it is
not necessary from the perspective of implementing and enforcing the
final rule to require an owner or operator to perform all of the
compliance calculation, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements
specified in the final rule where the result will always be zero
organic HAP per liter or gallon of coating solids.
For such zero-HAP materials, we have included a provision in Sec.
63.4741(a)(1)(i) and (a)(4) of the final rule specifying that if the
mass fraction of organic HAP in a coating is zero, as determined
according to Sec. 63.4741(a), then the source is not required to
determine the volume fraction of coating solids and density or to
calculate the organic HAP content. The following notification,
reporting, and recordkeeping sections of the final rule were written to
fully incorporate this provision: Sec. Sec. 63.4710(c)(8)(i),
63.4720(a)(5)(ii), and 63.4730(c), (c)(2), (f), and (g).
III. What Are the Final Standards?
A. What Is the Source Category?
The final rule applies to you if you own or operate a commercial
wood building products surface coating source that uses at least 4,170
liters (1,100 gallons) of coatings per year and is a major source, is
located at a major source, or is part of a major source of HAP
emissions, whether or not you manufacture the wood building product
substrate. Surface coating operations alone are not required to be
major sources of HAP emissions in order for the rule to apply. As long
as some part of the total source causes it to be a major source (e.g.,
the wood substrate manufacturing process), the surface coating
operations would be subject to the final rule.
We have defined a wood building products surface coating source as
any source engaged in the finishing or laminating of a wood building
product. A wood building product is any product that contains more than
50 percent by weight wood or wood fiber, excluding the weight of glass
components, and is used in the construction, either interior or
exterior, of a residential, commercial, or institutional building. As
explained later, we have established five subcategories in the wood
building products surface coating source category: (1) Exterior siding
and primed doorskins; (2) flooring; (3) interior wall paneling and
tileboard; (4) other interior panels; and (5) doors, windows, and
miscellaneous (see Table 1 of this preamble).
The final NESHAP requirements do not apply to the manufacture or
application of surface coatings to prefabricated/premanufactured or
mobile/modular homes. You are also not subject to the final rule if
your wood building products surface coating operations are located at
an area source. An area source of HAP is any source that has the
potential to emit HAP but is not a major source. You may establish area
source status by limiting the source's potential to emit HAP through
appropriate mechanisms available through the permitting authority.
The source category does not include research or laboratory
facilities; janitorial, building, and facility construction or
maintenance operations; or hobby shops that are operated for personal
rather than for commercial purposes. The source category does not
include noncommercial coating operations or coating applications using
handheld nonrefillable aerosol containers.
If an affected source has surface coating operations subject to the
requirements of another NESHAP that account for at least 95 percent of
the total (annual) coating usage for the source, the requirements,
including all applicable emission limitations, operating limits, and
work practices, of the predominant NESHAP can be applied to all coating
operations that are subject to a NESHAP.
B. What Is the Affected Source?
We define an affected source as a stationary source, a group of
stationary sources, or part of a stationary source to which a specific
emission standard applies. The final rule defines the affected source
as the collection of all operations associated with the surface coating
of wood building products. These operations include preparation of a
coating for application (e.g., mixing with thinners); surface
preparation of the wood building products; coating application, curing,
and drying equipment; equipment cleaning; and storage, transfer, and
handling of coatings, thinners, cleaning materials, and waste
materials.
C. What Are the Emission Limits, Operating Limits, and Work Practice
Standards?
Emission Limits. The final rule limits organic HAP emissions from
each new or reconstructed affected source using the emission limits in
Table 2 of this preamble. The emission limits for each existing
affected source are given in Table 3 of this preamble. Affected sources
may comply with the emission limits using either English or metric
units. These limits are based on five subcategories that group similar
operations and types of coatings. The final rule allows several
compliance options to achieve the emission limits. You could comply by
applying materials (coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials) that
meet the
[[Page 31752]]
emission limits, either individually or collectively. You could also
use a capture system and add-on control device to meet the emission
limits, or you could comply by using a combination of these approaches.

Other interior panels..................... 20 (0.17)
Doors, windows, and miscellaneous......... 231 (1.93)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Operating Limits. If you reduce emissions by using a capture system
and add-on control device (other than a solvent recovery system for
which you conduct a liquid-liquid material balance), the operating
limits apply to you. These limits are site-specific parameter limits
you determine during the initial performance test of the system. For
capture systems that are not permanent total enclosures (PTE), you must
establish average volumetric flow rates or duct static pressure limits
for each capture device (or enclosure) in each capture system. For
capture systems that are PTE, you must establish limits on average
facial velocity or pressure drop across openings in the enclosure.
For thermal oxidizers, you must monitor the combustion temperature.
For catalytic oxidizers, you must monitor the temperature immediately
before and after the catalyst bed, or you must monitor the temperature
before the catalyst bed and implement a site-specific inspection and
maintenance plan for the catalytic oxidizer. For carbon adsorbers for
which you do not conduct a liquid-liquid material balance, you must
monitor the carbon bed temperature and the amount of steam or nitrogen
used to desorb the bed. For condensers, you must monitor the outlet gas
temperature from the condenser. For concentrators, you must monitor the
temperature of the desorption concentrate stream and the pressure drop
of the dilute stream across the concentrator.
All site-specific parameter limits that you establish must reflect
operation of the capture system and control devices during a
performance test that demonstrates achievement of the emission limit
during representative operating conditions.
Work Practice Standards. If you use an emission capture system and
control device for compliance, you must develop and implement a work
practice plan to minimize organic HAP emissions from mixing operations,
storage tanks and other containers, and handling operations for
coatings, thinners, cleaning materials, and waste materials. The work
practice plan must include steps to ensure that, at a minimum, all
organic HAP coatings, thinners, cleaning materials, and waste materials
are stored in closed containers; spills of organic HAP coatings,
thinners, cleaning materials, and waste materials are minimized;
organic HAP coatings, thinners, cleaning materials, and waste materials
are conveyed from one location to another in closed containers or
pipes; mixing vessels that contain organic HAP coatings and other
materials are closed except when adding to, removing, or mixing the
contents; and emissions of organic HAP are minimized during cleaning of
storage, mixing, and conveying equipment.
If your affected source has an existing documented plan that
incorporates steps taken to minimize emissions from the aforementioned
sources, then your existing plan could be used to satisfy the
requirement for a work practice plan.
If you use a capture system and control device for compliance, you
must develop and operate according to a startup, shutdown, and
malfunction plan (SSMP) during periods of SSM of the capture system and
control device.
The General Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A) also apply to
you as indicated in the final rule. The General Provisions codify
certain procedures and criteria for all 40 CFR part 63 NESHAP. The
General Provisions contain administrative procedures, preconstruction
review procedures for new sources, and procedures for conducting
compliance-related activities such as notifications, reporting and
recordkeeping, performance testing, and monitoring. The final rule
refers to individual sections of the General Provisions to emphasize
key sections that are relevant. However, unless specifically overridden
in the final rule, all of the applicable General Provisions
requirements apply to you.
D. What Are the Testing and Initial Compliance Requirements?
New or reconstructed affected sources must be in compliance upon
initial startup of the affected source or by May 28, 2003, whichever is
later. Existing affected sources must be in compliance with the final
standards no later than May 29, 2006.
Compliance with the emission limits is based on a rolling 12-month
organic HAP emission rate that is determined each month. Each 12-month
period is a compliance period. The initial compliance period,
therefore, is the 12-month period beginning on the compliance date. If
the compliance date occurs on any day other than the first day of a
month, then the initial compliance period begins on the compliance date
and extends through the end of that month plus the following 12 months.
We have defined ``month'' as a calendar month or a pre-specified period
of 28 to 35 days to allow for flexibility at sources where data are
based on a business accounting period.
Being ``in compliance'' means that the owner or operator of the
affected source meets the requirements to achieve the emission
limitations during the initial compliance period. At the end of the
initial compliance period, the owner or operator must use the data and
records generated to determine whether or not the affected source is in
compliance with the organic HAP emission limit and other applicable
requirements for that period. If the affected source does not meet the
applicable limits and other requirements, it is out of compliance for
the entire initial compliance period.
Emission Limits. There are several options for complying with the
emission limits, and the testing and initial compliance requirements
vary
[[Page 31753]]
accordingly. You may use different compliance options for different
coating operations within the affected source and also for the same
coating operation at different times.
Option 1: Compliance based on compliant materials. If you
demonstrate compliance based on the use of compliant materials, you
must determine the mass of organic HAP in each coating, thinner, and
cleaning material used and the volume fraction of coating solids in
each coating used each month during the compliance period. You must
demonstrate that the organic HAP content of each coating meets the
applicable emission limit, and that you use no thinners or cleaning
materials that contain organic HAP.
To determine the mass fraction of organic HAP in coatings,
thinners, and cleaning materials and the volume fraction of coating
solids, you may either rely on manufacturer's data or on test results
using the test methods listed below. You may use alternative test
methods provided you get EPA approval in accordance with the General
Provisions in 40 CFR 63.7(f).
[sbull] For mass fraction of organic HAP, use Method 311 of 40 CFR
part 63, appendix A. If there are discrepancies between the methods for
determining the mass fraction of organic HAP, they must be resolved
through consultation with the regulatory compliance authority.
[sbull] The promulgated rule allows you to use non-aqueous volatile
matter as a surrogate for organic HAP, which includes all organic HAP
plus all other organic compounds, and excluding water. If you choose
this option, then you must use Method 24 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A.
[sbull] For volume fraction of coating solids, use one of these
options: (1) Use either of the two referenced ASTM methods (D2697-86,
1998, or D6093-97); or (2) calculate using the total volatile matter
content of the coating and the average density of the volatile matter
in the coating. If the mass fraction of organic HAP in a coating is
zero, as determined through test results or manufacturer's formulation
data, then the source is not required to determine the volume fraction
of coating solids and density or to calculate the organic HAP content.
To demonstrate initial compliance based on the material used, you
must demonstrate that the organic HAP content of each coating meets the
applicable emission limit, and that you use no organic HAP thinners or
cleaning materials.
Option 2: Compliance based on the emission rate without add-on
controls. If you demonstrate compliance based on the emission rate
without add-on controls option, you must determine the mass fraction of
organic HAP in all coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials and the
volume fraction of coating solids used each month during the compliance
period. You would use the same methods as described above for Option 1.
You would also do the following.
[sbull] Determine the quantity of each coating, thinner, and
cleaning material used.
[sbull] Calculate the total mass of organic HAP in all materials
and total volume of coating solids used each month. You may subtract
the total mass of organic HAP contained in waste materials you send to
a hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facility regulated
under 40 CFR part 262, 264, 265, or 266.
[sbull] Calculate the total mass of organic HAP emissions and total
volume of coating solids for the compliance period by adding together
all the monthly values for mass of organic HAP and for volume of
coating solids for the 12 months in the compliance period.
[sbull] Calculate the ratio of the total mass of organic HAP for
the materials used to the total volume of coating solids used for the
compliance period.
[sbull] Record the calculations and results and include them in
your Notification of Compliance Status.
Option 3: Compliance based on the emission rate with add-on
controls. If you use a capture system and add-on control device, other
than a solvent recovery system for which you conduct a liquid-liquid
material balance, you must meet the following testing and compliance
requirements.
[sbull] Conduct an initial performance test to determine the
capture and control efficiencies of the equipment and to establish
operating limits to be achieved on a continuous basis. The performance
test would have to be completed by the compliance date for existing
sources and no later than 180 days after the compliance date for new or
reconstructed affected sources.
[sbull] Determine the mass fraction of organic HAP in each material
and the volume fraction of coating solids for each coating used each
month of the compliance period.
[sbull] Calculate the total mass of organic HAP in all materials
and total volume of coating solids used each month in the coating
operation or group of coating operations. You may subtract from the
total mass of organic HAP the amount contained in waste materials you
send to a hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facility
regulated under 40 CFR part 262, 264, 265, or 266.
[sbull] Calculate the organic HAP emission reductions for the
controlled coating operations using the capture and control
efficiencies determined during the performance test and the total mass
of organic HAP in materials used in controlled coating operations.
[sbull] Calculate the total mass of organic HAP emissions and total
volume of coating solids for the compliance period by adding together
all monthly values for mass of organic HAP and for volume of coating
solids for the 12 months in the compliance period.
[sbull] Calculate the ratio of the total mass of organic HAP
emissions to the total volume of coating solids used during the
compliance period.
[sbull] Record the calculations and results and include them in the
Notification of Compliance Status.
If you use a capture system and add-on control device, other than a
solvent recovery system for which you conduct liquid-liquid material
balances, you must determine both the efficiency of the capture system
and the destruction or removal efficiency of the control device. To
determine the capture efficiency, you must either verify the presence
of a PTE using EPA Method 204 of 40 CFR part 51, appendix M (and all
materials must be applied and dried within the enclosure); or use one
of the protocols in Sec. 63.4765 of the final rule to measure capture
efficiency. If you have a PTE and all the materials are applied and
dried within the enclosure and you route all exhaust gases from the
enclosure to a control device, then you must assume 100 percent
capture.
To determine the destruction or removal efficiency of the control
device, you must conduct measurements of the inlet and outlet gas
streams. The test would consist of three runs, each run lasting at
least 1 hour, using the following EPA Methods in 40 CFR part 60,
appendix A:
[sbull] Method 1 or 1A for selection of the sampling sites.
[sbull] Method 2, 2A, 2C, 2D, 2F, or 2G to determine the gas
volumetric flow rate.
[sbull] Method 3, 3A, or 3B for gas analysis to determine dry
molecular weight.
[sbull] Method 4 to determine stack moisture.
[sbull] Method 25 or 25A to determine organic volatile matter
concentration. Alternatively, any other test method or data that have
been validated according to the applicable procedures in Method 301 of
40 CFR part 63, appendix A, and approved by the Administrator, may be
used.
If you use a solvent recovery system, you could determine the
overall control efficiency using a liquid-liquid material balance
instead of conducting an initial
[[Page 31754]]
performance test. If you use the material balance alternative, you must
measure the amount of all materials used in the coating operations
served by the solvent recovery system during each month of the
compliance period and determine the volatile matter contained in these
materials. You must measure the amount of volatile matter recovered by
the solvent recovery system each month of the compliance period. Then
you must compare the amount recovered for the 12-month compliance
period to the amount used to determine the overall control efficiency,
and apply this efficiency to the ratio of organic HAP to coating solids
for the materials used. You must record the calculations and results
and include them in your Notification of Compliance Status.
Operating Limits. As mentioned above, you must establish operating
limits as part of the initial performance test of a capture system and
control device, other than a solvent recovery system for which you
conduct liquid-liquid material balances. The operating limits are the
minimum or maximum (as applicable) values achieved for capture systems
and control devices during the most recent performance test that
demonstrated compliance with the emission limits.
The final rule specifies the parameters to monitor for the types of
emission control systems commonly used in the industry. You must
install, calibrate, maintain, and continuously operate all monitoring
equipment according to the manufacturer's specifications and ensure
that the continuous parameter monitoring systems (CPMS) meet the
requirements in Sec. 63.4768 of the final rule. If you use control
devices other than those identified in the final rule, you must submit
the operating parameters to be monitored to the Administrator for
approval. The authority to approve the parameters to be monitored is
retained by EPA and is not delegated to States.
If you use a thermal oxidizer, you must continuously monitor the
appropriate temperature and record it at least every 15 minutes. The
temperature monitor is placed in the firebox or in the duct immediately
downstream of the firebox before any substantial heat exchange occurs.
The operating limit would be the average temperature measured during
the performance test and, for each consecutive 3-hour period, the
average temperature would have to be at or above this limit.
If you use a catalytic oxidizer, you may choose from two methods to
determine operating limits. In the first method, you must continuously
monitor the temperature immediately before and after the catalyst bed
and record it at least every 15 minutes. The operating limits would be
the average temperature before the catalyst bed and the average
temperature difference across the catalyst bed during the performance
test and, for each 3-hour period, the average temperature and the
average temperature difference would have to be at or above these
limits. In the alternative method, you must continuously monitor the
temperature immediately before the catalyst bed and record it at least
every 15 minutes. The operating limit would be the average temperature
before the catalyst bed during the performance test and, for each 3-
hour period, the average temperature would have to be at or above these
limits. As part of the alternative method, you must also develop and
implement an inspection and maintenance plan for your catalytic
oxidizer.
If you use a carbon adsorber and do not conduct liquid-liquid
material balances to demonstrate compliance, you must monitor the
carbon bed temperature after each regeneration and the total amount of
steam or nitrogen used to desorb the bed for each regeneration. The
operating limits would be the carbon bed temperature (not to be
exceeded) and the amount of steam or nitrogen used for desorption (to
be met as a minimum).
If you use a condenser, you must monitor the outlet gas temperature
to ensure that the air stream is being cooled to a low enough
temperature. The operating limit would be the average condenser outlet
gas temperature measured during the performance test and, for each
consecutive 3-hour period, the average temperature would have to be at
or below this limit.
If you use a concentrator, you must monitor the desorption
concentrate stream gas temperature and the pressure drop of the dilute
stream across the concentrator. The operating limits would be the
desorption concentrate gas stream temperature (to be met as a minimum)
and the dilute stream pressure drop (not to be exceeded).
For each capture system that is not a PTE, you must establish
operating limits for gas volumetric flow rate or duct static pressure
for each enclosure or capture device. The operating limit would be the
average volumetric flow rate or duct static pressure during the
performance test, to be met as a minimum. For each capture system that
is a PTE, the operating limit would require the average facial velocity
of air through all natural draft openings to be at least 200 feet per
minute or the pressure drop across the enclosure to be at least 0.007
inches water.
Work Practices. If you use the emission rate with add-on controls
option, you must develop and implement on an ongoing basis a work
practice plan for minimizing organic HAP emissions from storage,
mixing, material handling, and waste handling operations. You must make
the plan available for inspection if the Administrator requests to see
it. We believe work practice standards are appropriate to further
reduce emissions.
If your affected source has an existing documented plan that
incorporates steps taken to minimize emissions from the aforementioned
sources, then your existing plan may be used to satisfy the requirement
for a work practice plan.
If you use a capture system and control device for compliance, you
must develop and operate according to a SSMP during periods of SSM of
the capture system and control device.
E. What Are the Continuous Compliance Requirements?
Emission Limits.
Option 1: Compliance based on compliant materials. If you
demonstrate compliance with the emission limits based on compliant
materials, you must demonstrate continuous compliance if, for each 12-
month compliance period, the organic HAP content of each coating used
does not exceed the applicable emission limit and you use no thinner or
cleaning material that contains organic HAP. You must follow the same
procedures for determining compliance that you used for the initial
compliance period.
Option 2: Compliance based on the emission rate without add-on
controls. If you demonstrate compliance with this option, you must
demonstrate continuous compliance if, for each 12-month compliance
period, the rolling 12-month emission rate is less than or equal to the
applicable emission limit. You must follow the same procedures for
calculating the rolling 12-month emission rate that you used for the
initial compliance period.
Option 3: Compliance based on the emission rate with add-on
controls. For each coating operation on which you use a capture system
and control device other than a solvent recovery system for which you
conduct a liquid-liquid material balance, the continuous parameter
monitoring results for each month would affect your compliance
determination. If the monitoring results indicate no deviations from
the operating limits and bypass line requirements, you would assume the
capture system and control device are
[[Page 31755]]
achieving the same percentage destruction or removal efficiency as they
did during the most recent performance test when compliance was
demonstrated. You would then apply this percentage reduction to the
total mass of organic HAP in materials used in controlled coating
operations to determine the rolling 12-month emission rate for those
operations. If there were any deviations from the operating limits
during the month or any bypasses of the control device, you must
account for them in the calculation of the monthly emissions by
assuming the capture system and control device were achieving zero
emission reduction during the periods of deviation. Then, you would
determine the rolling 12-month emission rate by dividing the total mass
of organic HAP emissions by the total volume of coating solids used
during the 12-month compliance period. Every month, you must calculate
the emission rate for the previous 12-month period.
For each coating operation on which you use a solvent recovery
system and conduct a liquid-liquid material balance each month, you
must use the liquid-liquid material balance to determine control
efficiency. To determine the overall control efficiency, you must
measure the amount of all materials used during each month and
determine the volatile matter content of these materials. You must also
measure the amount of volatile matter recovered by the solvent recovery
system during the month, calculate the overall control efficiency, and
apply it to the total mass of organic HAP in the materials used to
determine total organic HAP emissions. Then, you must determine the 12-
month organic HAP emission rate in the same manner as described above.
Operating Limits. If you use an emission capture system and control
device, the final rule requires you to achieve, on a continuous basis,
the operating limits you establish during the performance test. If the
continuous monitoring shows that the capture system and control device
are operating outside the range of values established during the
performance test, you have deviated from the established operating
limits.
If you operate a capture and control system that is equipped with a
bypass line, you must demonstrate that organic HAP emissions collected
by the capture system are being routed to the control device at all
times while controlled coating operations are being conducted. This
demonstration is accomplished by monitoring for potential bypass of the
control device. You may choose from the following four monitoring
procedures:
[sbull] Flow control position indicator to provide a record of
whether the exhaust stream is directed to the control device;
[sbull] Car-seal or lock-and-key valve closures to secure the
bypass line valve in the closed position when the control device is
operating;
[sbull] Valve closure monitoring to ensure any bypass line valve or
damper is closed when the control device is operating; or
[sbull] Automatic shutdown system to stop the coating operation
when flow is diverted from the control device.
If the bypass monitoring procedures indicate that emissions are not
routed to the control device, you have deviated from the emission
limits.
Work Practices. If you use the emission rate with add-on controls
option, you must implement, on an ongoing basis, the work practice plan
you developed during the initial compliance period. If you did not
develop a plan for reducing organic HAP emissions or you do not
implement the plan, this would be a deviation from the work practice
standard.
If your affected source has an existing documented plan that
incorporates steps taken to minimize emissions from the aforementioned
sources, then your existing plan may be used to satisfy the requirement
for a work practice plan.
If you use a capture system and control device for compliance, you
must operate according to your SSMP during periods of SSM of the
capture system and control device.
F. What Are the Notification, Recordkeeping, and Reporting
Requirements?
You are required to comply with the applicable requirements in the
NESHAP General Provisions, subpart A of 40 CFR part 63, as described in
the final rule. The General Provisions notification requirements
include: initial notifications, notification of performance test if you
are complying using a capture system and control device, notification
of compliance status, and additional notifications required for
affected sources with continuous monitoring systems. The General
Provisions also require certain records and periodic reports.
Initial Notifications. If the final rule applies to you, you must
send a notification to the EPA Regional Office in the region where your
source is located, and to your State agency, within 120 days after the
date of initial startup or September 25, 2003, whichever is later. The
report notifies us and your State agency that you have constructed a
new source, reconstructed an existing source, or you have an existing
source that is subject to the final rule. Thus, it allows you and the
permitting authority to plan for compliance activities. You will also
need to send a notification of planned construction or reconstruction
of a source that would be subject to the final rule and apply for
approval to construct or reconstruct.
Notification of Performance Test. If you demonstrate compliance by
using a capture system and control device for which you do not conduct
a liquid-liquid material balance, you must conduct a performance test.
The performance test must be no later than 180 days after initial
startup or November 24, 2003, whichever is later for a new or
reconstructed affected source and no later than the compliance date for
an existing affected source (May 29, 2006). You must notify us (or the
delegated State or local agency) at least 60 calendar days before the
performance test is scheduled to begin, as indicated in the General
Provisions for the NESHAP.
Notification of Compliance Status. You must send us a Notification
of Compliance Status within 30 days after the end of the initial
compliance period. Your compliance procedures would depend on which
compliance option you choose. In the notification, you must certify
whether the affected source has complied with the promulgated
standards, identify the option(s) you used to demonstrate initial
compliance, and provide calculations supporting the compliance
demonstration.
If you elect to comply by using a capture system and control device
for which you conduct performance tests, you must provide the results
of the tests. Your notification would also include the measured range
of each monitored parameter and the operating limits established during
the performance test, and information showing whether the source has
complied with its operating limits during the initial compliance
period.
Recordkeeping Requirements. You must keep records of reported
information and all other information necessary to document compliance
with the promulgated rule for 5 years. As required under the General
Provisions, records for the 2 most recent years must be kept on-site;
the other 3 years may be kept off-site. Records pertaining to the
design and operation of the control and monitoring equipment must be
kept for the life of the equipment.
Depending on the compliance option that you choose, you may need to
keep
[[Page 31756]]
records of the organic HAP content, volatile matter content, coating
solids content, and quantity of the coatings, thinners, and cleaning
materials used during each compliance period.
If you demonstrate compliance by using a capture system and control
device, you must keep records of the following:
[sbull] All required measurements, calculations, and supporting
documentation needed to demonstrate compliance with the standards;
[sbull] All results of performance tests and parameter monitoring;
[sbull] All information necessary to demonstrate conformance with
the requirements for minimizing emissions from mixing, storage, and
handling operations for coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials;
[sbull] All information necessary to demonstrate conformance with
the affected source's SSMP when the plan procedures are followed;
[sbull] The occurrence and duration of each SSM of the emission
capture system and control device;
[sbull] Actions taken during SSM that are different from the
procedures specified in the affected source's SSMP; and
[sbull] Each period during which a CPMS is malfunctioning or
inoperative (including out-of-control periods).
The final rule requires you to collect and keep records according
to certain minimum data requirements for the CPMS. Failure to collect
and keep the specified minimum data would be a deviation that is
separate from any emission limits, operating limits, or work practice
standards.
Deviations, as determined from these records, must be recorded and
also reported. A deviation is any instance when any requirement or
obligation established by the final rule is not met, including but not
limited to the emission limits, operating limits, and work practice
standards.
If you use a capture system and control device to reduce organic
HAP emissions, you must make your SSMP available upon request for
inspection by the Administrator. The plan will stay in your records for
the life of the affected source or until the affected source is no
longer subject to the promulgated standards. If you revise the plan,
you must keep the previous superceded versions on record for 5 years
following the revision.
Periodic Reports. Each reporting year is divided into two
semiannual reporting periods. If no deviations occur during a
semiannual reporting period, you must submit a semiannual report
stating that the affected source has been in continuous compliance. If
deviations occur, you must include them in the report as follows:
[sbull] Report each deviation from the emission limits.
[sbull] Report each deviation from the work practice standards if
you use an emission capture system and control device.
[sbull] If you use an emission capture system and control device
other than a solvent recovery system for which you conduct liquid-
liquid material balances, report each deviation from an operating limit
and each time a bypass line diverts emissions from the control device
to the atmosphere during a controlled coating operation.
[sbull] Report other specific information on the periods of time
and details of deviations that occurred.
You must include in each semiannual report an identification of the
compliance option(s) you used and of time periods when you changed to
another option.
Other Reports. You must submit reports for periods of SSM of the
capture system and control device. If the procedures you follow during
any SSM are inconsistent with your plan, you must report those
procedures with your semiannual reports in addition to immediate
reports required by Sec. 63.10(d)(5)(ii) of the NESHAP General
Provisions.
IV. What Are the Environmental, Energy, Cost, and Economic Impacts?
A. What Are the Air Impacts?
The final rule will reduce nationwide organic HAP emissions from
existing major sources by approximately 4,400 Mg/yr (4,900 tpy). This
represents a reduction of 63 percent from the baseline organic HAP
emissions of 7,000 Mg/yr (7,800 tpy).
B. What Are the Non-Air Health, Environmental, and Energy Impacts?
Based on information from the industry survey responses, we found
no indication that the use of low- or no-organic-HAP content coatings,
thinners, and cleaning materials at existing sources would result in
any increase or decrease in non-air health, environmental, and energy
impacts. There would be no change in utility requirements associated
with the use of these materials, so there would be no change in the
amount of energy consumed as a result of the material conversion. Also,
there would be no significant change in the amount of materials used or
the amount of waste produced.
C. What Are the Cost and Economic Impacts?
Total annual cost of compliance for the estimated 215 existing
major sources was projected to be $22.5 million. Due to consolidation
throughout the industry, there is not expected to be any net growth
within the wood building products surface coating industry during the
next 5 years. Therefore, there are no projected impacts for new
sources.
We performed an economic impact assessment (EIA) to provide an
estimate of the facility and market impacts of the final rule as well
as the social costs. In general, we expect the economic impacts of the
promulgated standards to be minimal, with expected price increases for
affected wood building products surface coating facilities of only 0.04
percent.
For affected sources, the median profit margin will remain
unchanged, with small entities being slightly more affected by the
final rule. The median profit margin for small entities is expected to
decrease from 2.8 percent to 2.7 percent while the median profit margin
for large entities is expected to decrease from 3.1 percent to 3.0
percent. Therefore, we do not expect an adverse economic impact on the
industry as a whole.
The distribution of costs across wood building products surface
coating facilities is slanted toward the lower impact levels with many
facilities incurring costs related only to annually recurring
monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting, and for only a few sources
that choose to use their existing add-on controls, initial performance
testing and parameter monitoring. The EIA indicates that these
regulatory costs are expected to represent only 0.2 percent of the
value of coating services, which should not cause producers to cease or
alter their current operations. Hence, no firms or facilities are at
risk of closure because of the promulgated standards. For more
information, refer to the ``Economic Impact Analysis for the Wood
Building Products NESHAP'' in the docket.
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), EPA
must determine whether the regulatory action is ``significant'' and
therefore subject to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review and
the requirements of the Executive Order. The Executive Order defines
``significant regulatory
[[Page 31757]]
action'' as one that is likely to result in standards that may:
(1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or
adversely affect in a material way, the economy, a sector of the
economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public
health or safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or
communities;
(2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an
action taken or planned by another agency;
(3) Materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants,
user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients
thereof; or
(4) Raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set forth in
the Executive Order.
It has been determined that the final rule is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under the terms of Executive Order 12866 and is
therefore not subject to OMB review.''
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
The information collection requirements in the final rule have been
submitted for approval to OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44
U.S.C. 3501, et seq. An Information Collection Request (ICR) document
has been prepared by EPA (ICR No. 2034.02) and a copy may be obtained
from Susan Auby by mail at the Collection Strategies Division (MD-
2822T), U.S. EPA, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20460,
by e-mail at auby.susan@epa.gov, or by calling (202) 566-1672. A copy
may also be downloaded from the internet at http://www.epa.gov/icr. The
information requirements are not effective until OMB approves them.
The information requirements are based on notification,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in the NESHAP General
Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), which are mandatory for all
operators subject to national emission standards. These recordkeeping
and reporting requirements are specifically authorized by section 114
of the CAA (42 U.S.C. 7414). All information submitted to EPA pursuant
to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements for which a claim of
confidentiality is made is safeguarded according to EPA policies set
forth in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B.
The final rule requires record maintenance of all coatings,
thinners, and cleaning materials data and calculations used to
demonstrate compliance. This information includes the volume of
coatings and other materials used during each compliance period, mass
fraction of organic HAP, density, and, for coatings only, volume
fraction of coating solids (as applicable).
If an add-on control device is used, records will be kept of the
capture efficiency of the capture device, destruction or removal
efficiency of the control device, and the monitored operating
parameters. In addition, records will be kept of each calculation of
the affected sourcewide emissions for each compliance period and all
data, calculations, test results, and other supporting information.
The monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting burden for this
collection (averaged over the first 3 years after the effective date of
the final rule) is estimated to be approximately 2,200 labor hours per
year at a total annual cost of $128,000. For sources assumed to use
existing add-on control devices, this estimate includes a one-time
performance test and report (with repeat tests where needed) and a one-
time submission of a SSMP with semiannual reports for any event when
the procedures in the plan were not followed. For all sources, this
estimate includes training, reading the regulation, and recordkeeping.
There are no capital/startup costs associated with the monitoring
requirements.
Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources
expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and
verifying information; processing and maintaining information, and
disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to
comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements;
train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information;
search data sources; complete and review the collection of information;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The EPA has determined that it is not necessary to prepare a
regulatory flexibility analysis in connection with the final rule. The
EPA has also determined that the rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. For purposes
of assessing the impacts of today's rule on small entities, small
entity is defined as: (1) A small business whose parent company has a
maximum of 500 employees according to Small Business Administration
(SBA) size standards; (2) a small governmental jurisdiction that is a
government of a city, county, town, school district, or special
district with a population of less than 50,000; or (3) a small
organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise which is
independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field.
After considering the economic impacts of today's final rule on
small entities, EPA has concluded that this action will not have a
significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. We have
conducted an assessment of the standards on small businesses within the
wood building products industries. Based on SBA size definitions for
the affected industries (NAICS 321211--Hardwood Veneer and Plywood
Manufacturing, NAICS 321212--Softwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing,
NAICS 321219--Reconstituted Wood Product Manufacturing, NAICS 321911--
Wood Window and Door Manufacturing, NAICS 321918--Other Millwork
(including Flooring), NAICS 321999--All Other Miscellaneous Wood
Product Manufacturing) and reported sales and employment data, EPA's
survey identified four out of the 42 known facilities (four out of the
17 known companies) as being owned by small businesses that will be
affected by the final rule. Small businesses own 10 percent of the
facilities and 24 percent of the companies within the source category
that will be affected by the final rule and are expected to incur 10
percent of the total industry compliance costs of $22.5 million. There
are no small firms with compliance costs equal to or greater than 1
percent of their sales. The EPA believes the sample of firms included
in this small entity analysis is representative of the small firms that
may be affected by the promulgated rule.
The EPA also notes that, while economies of scale will require
individual small firms to pay a somewhat higher proportion of revenues
than large firms for compliance, the burden on most small firms is
quite low nevertheless. The median compliance cost is well below 1
percent of sales for both small and large firms affected by the
promulgated standards (0.18 percent and 0.02 percent of sales for small
and large firms, respectively). For more information, please consult
the report, ``Economic Impact Analysis for the
[[Page 31758]]
Wood Building Products NESHAP,'' (Docket ID No. OAR-2003-0002, formerly
Docket No. A-97-52).
Although the final rule will not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities, EPA nonetheless has tried to
reduce the impact of the final rule on small entities, consistent with
our obligations under the CAA. Along with soliciting input from small
entities during the data-gathering phase of the rulemaking, three
separate small business outreach activities were conducted. First, the
Western States Air Resources Council was contacted about small business
participation in a meeting held on October 12, 1999. (For more
information, see the docket.) The second activity was a random
screening of approximately 250 affected companies within the wood
building products surface coating industry. Internet searches led to a
list of ten possible affected small entities. These small entities were
then invited to join a small business panel to assist in the
development of the wood building products (surface coating) NESHAP. The
third outreach program was conducted through SCOPe, which is a
cooperative agreement between the EPA and the National Association of
Schools of Public Affairs and Administration. Meetings are facilitated
by local public affairs and administration faculty and are used to
inform small entities of pending regulations. The informal meetings
allow potentially affected facilities to voice concerns which are then
communicated to the EPA prior to the rulemaking. According to outreach
in Georgia, Oregon, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania, small entities
are aware of low- or no-HAP coatings that have the potential to reduce
HAP emissions. Many of the small entities currently use low- or no-HAP
coatings and agree that they are often less expensive than higher-HAP
options, do not affect the quality of the final product, and the
choices are becoming more widespread. Therefore, small entities will
not be adversely affected by the use of low- or no-HAP coatings.
Another aspect of the small business outreach was the participation
in meetings that focus on impacts on small entities. The EPA
representatives for the wood building products (surface coating) NESHAP
have attended conferences and trade association meetings that have
included small entities. By attending conferences sponsored by the
Center for Advanced Wood Processing, the Laminating Materials
Association, and RadTech International North America, and being
involved in coatings-related industry and trade association meetings,
information about the wood building products NESHAP has been shared
with other communities concerned with impacts on small entities.
We believe these actions will significantly reduce the compliance
burden for small entities, thereby mitigating potential impacts and
preventing any duplication of effort. In addition, the final rule
contains compliance options which give small entities flexibility in
choosing the most cost effective and least burdensome alternative for
their operations. For example, a facility could purchase and use low-
or no-HAP coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials (i.e., pollution
prevention) that meet the standards rather than being required to
purchase add-on control systems. The low- or no-HAP option can be
demonstrated with minimum burden by using already-maintained purchase
and usage records. No testing of materials is required, as the facility
owners could show that their coatings meet the emission limits by
providing formulation data supplied by the manufacturer. Furthermore,
the final rule includes the minimum monitoring, recordkeeping, and
reporting requirements needed for enforcement and compliance assurance.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public
Law 104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the
effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal
governments and the private sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA, EPA
generally must prepare a written statement, including a cost-benefit
analysis, for proposed and final rules with ``Federal mandates'' that
may result in expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in
the aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any
1 year. Before promulgating an EPA rule for which a written statement
is needed, section 205 of the UMRA generally requires EPA to identify
and consider a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives and adopt
the least costly, most cost-effective, or least burdensome alternative
that achieves the objectives of the rule. The provisions of section 205
do not apply when they are inconsistent with applicable law. Moreover,
section 205 allows EPA to adopt an alternative other than the least
costly, most cost-effective, or least burdensome alternative if the
Administrator publishes with the final rule an explanation why that
alternative was not adopted. Before EPA establishes any regulatory
requirements that may significantly or uniquely affect small
governments, including tribal governments, it must have developed under
section 203 of the UMRA a small government agency plan. The plan must
provide for notifying potentially affected small governments, enabling
officials of affected small governments to have meaningful and timely
input in the development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant
Federal intergovernmental mandates, and informing, educating, and
advising small governments on compliance with the regulatory
requirements.
The EPA has determined that the final rule does not contain a
Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 million or more
to State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, or the
private sector in any 1 year nor does the final rule significantly or
uniquely impact small governments, because it contains no requirements
that apply to such governments or impose obligations upon them. Thus,
today's rule is not subject to the requirements of sections 202 and 205
of the UMRA.
E. Executive Order 13132, Federalism
Executive Order 13132, Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999),
requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful
and timely input by State and local officials in the development of
regulatory policies that have federalism implications.'' ``Policies
that have federalism implications'' are defined in the Executive Order
to include regulations that have ``substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the national government and the
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government.''
The final rule does not have federalism implications. It will not
have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship
between the national government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government,
as specified in Executive Order 13132. None of the affected sources are
owned or operated by State governments. Thus, the requirements of
section 6 of the Executive Order do not apply to the final rule.
F. Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian
Tribal Governments (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), requires EPA to
develop an accountable process to ensure
[[Page 31759]]
``meaningful and timely input by tribal officials in the development of
regulatory policies that have tribal implications.'' The final rule
does not have tribal implications, as specified in Executive Order
13175, because tribal governments do not own or operate any sources
subject to the amendments. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply
to the final rule.
G. Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
Executive Order 13045, ``Protection of Children from Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), applies
to any rule that: (1) Is determined to be ``economically significant''
as defined under Executive Order 12866, and (2) concerns an
environmental health or safety risk that EPA has reason to believe may
have a disproportionate effect on children. If the regulatory action
meets both criteria, EPA must evaluate the environmental health or
safety effects of the planned rule on children, and explain why the
planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective and
reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the Agency.
The EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 as applying only to those
regulatory actions that are based on health or safety risks, such that
the analysis required under section 5-501 of the Executive Order has
the potential to influence the regulation. The final rule is not
subject to Executive Order 13045 because it is based on technology
performance and not on health or safety risks.
H. Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use
The final rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211, ``Actions
Concerning Regulations that Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because it is not a
significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
As noted in the proposed rule, Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) of 1995 (Pub. L. No.
104-113, (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards (VCS) in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be
inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. The VCS are
technical standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods,
sampling procedures, business practices) that are developed or adopted
by VCS bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through OMB,
explanations when the Agency does not use available and applicable VCS.
This rulemaking involves technical standards. The EPA cites the
following standards in this final rule: EPA Methods 1, 1A, 2, 2A, 2C,
2D, 2F, 2G, 3, 3A, 3B, 4, 24, 25, 25A, 204, 204A-F, and 311. Consistent
with the NTTAA, EPA conducted searches to identify VCS in addition to
these EPA methods. No applicable VCS were identified for EPA Methods
1A, 2A, 2D, 2F, 2G, 204, 204A-F, and 311. The search and review results
have been documented and are available in the docket (Docket ID No.
OAR-2003-0002, formerly Docket No. A-97-52) of the final rule.
The three VCS were identified as acceptable alternatives to EPA
test methods for the purposes of the rule.
The VCS ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981, ``Flue and Exhaust Gas Analyses
[Part 10, Instruments and Apparatus],'' is cited in this rule for its
manual method for measuring the oxygen, carbon dioxide, and carbon
monoxide content of exhaust gas. This part of ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981,
Part 10, is an acceptable alternative to Method 3B.
The two VCS, ASTM D2697-86 (Reapproved 1998), ``Standard Test
Method for Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings,''
and ASTM D6093-97, ``Standard Test Method for Percent Volume
Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings Using a Helium Gas
Pycnometer,'' are cited in this rule as acceptable alternatives to EPA
Method 24 for measuring volume of solids in coatings. Currently, Method
24 does not have a procedure for determining the volume of solids in
coatings. These standards fill a void in EPA Method 24 which directs
that volume solids content be calculated from the coating
manufacturer's formulation. The final rule does allow for the use of
the volume solids content values calculated from the coating
manufacturer's formulation; however, test results (if available) will
take precedence if the test results do not agree with the calculated
values.
Six VCS: ASTM D1475-90, ASTM D2369-95, ASTM D3792-91, ASTM D4017-
96a, ASTM D4457-85 (Reapproved 1991), and ASTM D5403-93, are already
incorporated by reference (IBR) in EPA Method 24. In addition, we are
separately specifying the use of ASTM D1475-90 for measuring the
density of individual coating components, such as organic solvents.
Five VCS: ASTM D1979-91, ASTM D3432-89, ASTM D4747-87, ASTM D4827-
93, and ASTM PS 9-94 are IBR in EPA Method 311.
In addition to the VCS we are using in the final rule, the search
for emissions measurement procedures identified 14 other VCS. We
determined that 11 of these 14 standards identified for measuring
emissions of the HAP or surrogate subject to emission standards in the
final rule were impractical alternatives to EPA test methods for the
purposes of the final rule. Therefore, EPA does not intend to adopt
these standards. (See Docket ID No. OAR-2003-0002, formerly Docket No.
A-97-52, for further information on the methods.)
Sections 63.4730, 63.4741, 63.4761, 63.4765, 63.4766, and Table 3
to promulgated subpart QQQQ lists the EPA testing methods included in
the final rule. Under Sec. 63.8 of subpart A of the General
Provisions, a source may apply to EPA for permission to use alternative
monitoring in place of any of the EPA testing methods.
J. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. Sec. 801, et seq., as added
by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996,
generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency
promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy
of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller
General of the United States. The EPA will submit a report containing
the final rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the
U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the
United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register.
A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in
the Federal Register. The final rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined
by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The rule will be effective May 28, 2003.

[[Page 31762]]
Emission Limitations
Sec. 63.4690 What emission limits must I meet?
(a) For a new or reconstructed affected source, you must limit
organic HAP emissions to the atmosphere to no more than the applicable
emission limit(s) in Table 1 to this subpart, determined according to
the requirements in Sec. Sec. 63.4741, 63.4751, or 63.4761.
(b) For an existing affected source, you must limit organic HAP
emissions to the atmosphere to no more than the applicable emission
limit(s) in Table 2 to this subpart, determined according to the
requirements in Sec. 63.4741, Sec. 63.4751, or Sec. 63.4761.
(c) If the affected source applies coatings to products that are in
different subcategories as described in Sec. 63.4681(a), then you must
demonstrate initial and continuous compliance by selecting one of the
approaches described in paragraphs (c)(1) and (2) of this section.
(1) Conduct separate compliance demonstrations for each applicable
subcategory emission limit and reflect these separate determinations in
notifications, reports, and records required by Sec. Sec. 63.4710,
63.4720, and 63.4730, respectively.
(2) Demonstrate compliance with the most stringent of the
applicable subcategory emission limits.
Sec. 63.4691 What are my options for meeting the emission limits?
You must include all coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials
used in the affected source when determining whether the organic HAP
emission rate is equal to or less than the applicable emission limit in
Sec. 63.4690. To make this determination, you must use at least one of
the three compliance options listed in paragraphs (a) through (c) of
this section. You may apply any of the compliance options to an
individual coating operation or to multiple coating operations as a
group or to the entire affected source. You may use different
compliance options for different coating operations or at different
times on the same coating operation. However, you may not use different
compliance options at the same time on the same coating operation. If
you switch between compliance options for any coating operation or
group of coating operations, you must document this switch as required
by Sec. 63.4730(c), and you must report it in the next semiannual
compliance report required in Sec. 63.4720.
(a) Compliant material option. Demonstrate that the organic HAP
content of each coating used in the coating operation(s) is less than
or equal to the applicable emission limit(s) in Sec. 63.4690, and that
each thinner and each cleaning material used contains no organic HAP.
You must meet all the requirements of Sec. Sec. 63.4740, 63.4741, and
63.4742 to demonstrate compliance with the emission limit using this
option.
(b) Emission rate without add-on controls option. Demonstrate that,
based on the coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials used in the
coating operation(s), the organic HAP emission rate for the coating
operation(s) is less than or equal to the applicable emission limit(s)
in Sec. 63.4690, calculated as a rolling 12-month emission rate and
determined on a monthly basis. You must meet all the requirements of
Sec. Sec. 63.4750, 63.4751, and 63.4752 to demonstrate compliance with
the emission limit using this option.
(c) Emission rate with add-on controls option. Demonstrate that,
based on the coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials used in the
coating operation(s) and the emission reductions achieved by emission
capture systems and add-on controls, the organic HAP emission rate for
the coating operation(s) is less than or equal to the applicable
emission limit(s) in Sec. 63.4690, calculated as a rolling 12-month
emission rate and determined on a monthly basis. If you use this
compliance option, you must also demonstrate that all emission capture
systems and add-on control devices for the coating operation(s) meet
the operating limits required in Sec. 63.4692, except for solvent
recovery systems for which you conduct liquid-liquid material balances
according to Sec. 63.4761(j), and that you meet the work practice
standards required in Sec. 63.4693. You must meet all the requirements
of Sec. Sec. 63.4760 through 63.4768 to demonstrate compliance with
the emission limits, operating limits, and work practice standards
using this option.
Sec. 63.4692 What operating limits must I meet?
(a) For any coating operation(s) on which you use the compliant
material option or the emission rate without add-on controls option,
you are not required to meet any operating limits.
(b) For any controlled coating operation(s) on which you use the
emission rate with add-on controls option, except those for which you
use a solvent recovery system and conduct a liquid-liquid material
balance according to Sec. 63.4761(j), you must meet the operating
limits specified in Table 3 to this subpart. These operating limits
apply to the emission capture and control systems on the coating
operation(s) for which you use this option, and you must establish the
operating limits during the performance test according to the
requirements in Sec. 63.4767. You must meet the operating limits at
all times after you establish them.
(c) If you use an add-on control device other than those listed in
Table 3 to this subpart, or wish to monitor an alternative parameter
and comply with a different operating limit, you must apply to the
Administrator for approval of alternative monitoring under Sec.
63.8(f).
Sec. 63.4693 What work practice standards must I meet?
(a) For any coating operation(s) on which you use the compliant
material option or the emission rate without add-on controls option,
you are not required to meet any work practice standards.
(b) If you use the emission rate with add-on controls option, you
must develop and implement a work practice plan to minimize organic HAP
emissions from the storage, mixing, and conveying of coatings,
thinners, and cleaning materials used in, and waste materials generated
by, the coating operation(s); or you must meet an alternative standard
as provided in paragraph (d) of this section. The plan must specify
practices and procedures to ensure that, at a minimum, the elements
specified in paragraphs (b)(1) through (5) of this section are
implemented. You must make the plan available upon request for
inspection by the Administrator.
(1) All organic-HAP coatings, thinners, cleaning materials, and
waste materials must be stored in closed containers.
(2) Spills of organic-HAP coatings, thinners, cleaning materials,
and waste materials must be minimized.
(3) Organic-HAP coatings, thinners, cleaning materials, and waste
materials must be conveyed from one location to another in closed
containers or pipes.
(4) Mixing vessels that contain organic-HAP coatings and other
materials must be closed except when adding to, removing, or mixing the
contents.
(5) Emissions of organic-HAP must be minimized during cleaning of
storage, mixing, and conveying equipment.
(c) If your affected source has an existing documented plan that
incorporates steps taken to minimize emissions from the sources
specified in paragraphs (b)(1) through (5) of this section, then your
existing plan can be used to meet the requirement for a work
[[Page 31763]]
practice plan as specified in paragraph (b) of this section.
(d) As provided in Sec. 63.6(g), we, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (U.S. EPA), may choose to grant you permission to use
an alternative to the work practice standards in this section.

Compliance Requirements for the Compliant Material Option
Sec. 63.4740 By what date must I conduct the initial compliance
demonstration?
You must complete the initial compliance demonstration for the
initial compliance period according to the requirements in Sec.
63.4741. The initial compliance period begins on the applicable
compliance date specified in Sec. 63.4683 and ends on the last day of
the 12th month following the compliance date. If the compliance date
occurs on any day other than the first day of a month, then the initial
compliance period extends through the end of that month plus the next
12 months. The initial compliance demonstration includes the
calculations according to Sec. 63.4741 and supporting documentation
showing that during the initial compliance period, you used no coating
with an organic HAP content that exceeded the applicable emission limit
in Sec. 63.4690, and that you used no thinners or cleaning materials
that contained organic HAP.
Sec. 63.4741 How do I demonstrate initial compliance with the
emission limitations?
You may use the compliant material option for any individual
coating operation, for any group of coating operations in the affected
source, or for all the coating operations in the affected source. You
must use either the emission rate without add-on controls option or the
emission rate with add-on controls option for any coating operation in
the affected source for which you do not use this option. To
demonstrate initial compliance using the compliant material option, the
coating operation or group of coating operations must use no coating
with an organic HAP content that exceeds the applicable emission limit
in Sec. 63.4690 and must use no thinner or cleaning material that
contains organic HAP as determined according to this section. Any
coating operation for which you use the compliant material option is
not required to meet the operating limits or work practice standards
required in Sec. Sec. 63.4692 and 63.4693, respectively. To
demonstrate initial compliance with the emission limitations using the
compliant material option, you must meet all the requirements of this
section for the coating operation or group of coating operations using
this option. Use the procedures in this section on each coating,
thinner, and cleaning material in the condition it is in when it is
received from its manufacturer or supplier and prior to any alteration.
You do not need to redetermine the mass of organic HAP in coatings,
thinners, or cleaning materials that have been reclaimed onsite and
reused in the coating operation(s) for which you use the compliant
material option, provided these materials in their condition as
received were demonstrated to comply with the compliant material
option. If the mass fraction of organic HAP of a coating equals zero,
determined according to paragraph (a) of this section, and you use the
compliant material option, you are not required to comply with
paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section for that coating.
(a) Determine the mass fraction of organic HAP for each material
used. You must determine the mass fraction of organic HAP for each
coating, thinner, and cleaning material used during the compliance
period by using one of the options in paragraphs (a)(1) through (5) of
this section.
(1) Method 311 (appendix A to 40 CFR part 63). You may use Method
311 for determining the mass fraction of organic HAP. Use the
procedures specified in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section
when performing a Method 311 test. If these values cannot be determined
using Method 311, the owner or operator shall submit an alternative
technique for determining their values for approval by the
Administrator.
(i) Count each organic HAP that is measured to be present at 0.1
percent by mass or more for OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in 29
CFR 1910.1200(d)(4), and at 1.0 percent by mass or more for other
organic HAP compounds. For example, if toluene (not an OSHA carcinogen)
is measured to be 0.5 percent of the material by mass, you do not have
to count it. Express the mass fraction of each organic HAP you count as
a value truncated to four places after the decimal point (e.g.,
0.379178412 truncates to 0.3791).
(ii) Calculate the total mass fraction of organic HAP in the test
material by adding up the individual organic HAP mass fractions and
truncating the result to three places after the decimal point (e.g.,
0.763).
(2) Method 24 (appendix A to 40 CFR part 60). For coatings, you may
use Method 24 to determine the mass fraction of nonaqueous volatile
matter and use that value as a substitute for mass fraction of organic
HAP. (Note: Method 24 is not appropriate for those coatings with a
water content that would result in an effective detection
[[Page 31768]]
limit greater than the applicable emission limit.)
(3) Alternative method. You may use an alternative test method for
determining the mass fraction of organic HAP once the Administrator has
approved it. You must follow the procedure in Sec. 63.7(f) to submit
an alternative test method for approval.
(4) Information from the supplier or manufacturer of the material.
You may rely on information other than that generated by the test
methods specified in paragraphs (a)(1) through (3) of this section,
such as manufacturer's formulation data, if it represents each organic
HAP that is present at 0.1 percent by mass or more for OSHA-defined
carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4), and at 1.0 percent
by mass or more for other organic HAP compounds. For example, if
toluene (not an OSHA carcinogen) is 0.5 percent of the material by
mass, you do not have to count it. If there is a disagreement between
such information and results of a test conducted according to
paragraphs (a)(1) through (3) of this section, then the test method
results will take precedence unless, after consultation, a regulated
source could demonstrate to the satisfaction of the enforcement agency
that the formulation data were correct.
(5) Solvent blends. Solvent blends may be listed as single
components for some materials in data provided by manufacturers or
suppliers. Solvent blends may contain organic HAP which must be counted
toward the total organic HAP mass fraction of the materials. When test
data and manufacturer's data for solvent blends are not available, you
may use the default values for the mass fraction of organic HAP in
these solvent blends listed in Table 5 or Table 6 to this subpart. If
you use the tables, you must use the values in Table 5 for all solvent
blends that match Table 5 entries, and you may only use Table 6 if the
solvent blends in the materials you use do not match any of the solvent
blends in Table 5 and you only know whether the blend is aliphatic or
aromatic. However, if the results of a Method 311 (40 CFR part 63,
appendix A) test indicate higher values than those listed on Table 5 or
Table 6 to this subpart, the Method 311 results will take precedence.
(b) Determine the volume fraction of coating solids for each
coating. You must determine the volume fraction of coating solids
(liters of coating solids per liter of coating) for each coating used
during the compliance period by one of the methods specified in
paragraph (b)(1), (2), or (3) of this section.
(1) ASTM Method D2697-86 (Reapproved 1998) or D6093-97. You may use
ASTM Method D2697-86 (Reapproved 1998), ``Standard Test Method for
Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings' (incorporated
by reference, see Sec. 63.14), or D6093-97, ``Standard Test Method for
Percent Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings Using
a Helium Gas Pycnometer'' (incorporated by reference, see Sec. 63.14),
to determine the volume fraction of coating solids for each coating.
Divide the nonvolatile volume percent obtained with the methods by 100
to calculate volume fraction of coating solids. If these values cannot
be determined using these methods, the owner operator may submit an
alternative technique for determining their values for approval by the
Administrator.
(2) Information from the supplier or manufacturer of the material.
You may obtain the volume fraction of coating solids for each coating
from the supplier or manufacturer.
(3) Calculation of volume fraction of coating solids. If the volume
fraction of coating solids cannot be determined using the options in
paragraphs (b)(1) and (2) of this section, you must determine it using
Equation 1 of this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR98AD03.000
Where:
Vs = Volume fraction of coating solids, liters coating
solids per liter coating.
mvolatiles = Total volatile matter content of the coating,
including HAP, volatile organic compounds (VOC), water, and exempt
compounds, determined according to Method 24 in appendix A of 40 CFR
part 60, grams volatile matter per liter coating.
Davg = Average density of volatile matter in the coating,
grams volatile matter per liter volatile matter, determined from test
results using ASTM Method D1475-90 information from the supplier or
manufacturer of the material, or reference sources providing density or
specific gravity data for pure materials. If there is disagreement
between ASTM Method D1475-90 test results and other information
sources, the test results will take precedence.
(c) Determine the density of each coating. Determine the density of
each coating used during the compliance period from test results using
ASTM Method D1475-90 or information from the supplier or manufacturer
of the material. If there is disagreement between ASTM Method D1475-90
test results and the supplier's or manufacturer's information, the test
results will take precedence.
(d) Calculate the organic HAP content of each coating. Calculate
the organic HAP content, grams organic HAP per liter coating solids, of
each coating used during the compliance period, using Equation 2 of
this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR98AD03.001
Where:
Hc = Organic HAP content of the coating, grams organic HAP
per liter coating solids.
Dc = Density of coating, grams coating per liter coating,
determined according to paragraph (c) of this section.
Wc = Mass fraction of organic HAP in the coating, grams
organic HAP per gram coating, determined according to paragraph (a) of
this section.
Vs = Volume fraction of coating solids, liter coating solids

section.
(e) Compliance demonstration. The organic HAP content for each
coating used during the initial compliance period, determined using
Equation 2 of this section, must be less than or equal to the
applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690; and each thinner and
cleaning material used during the initial compliance period must
contain no organic HAP, determined according to paragraph (a) of this
section. You must keep all records required by Sec. Sec. 63.4730 and
63.4731. As part of the Notification of Compliance Status required in
Sec. 63.4710, you must identify the coating operation(s) for which you
used the compliant material option and submit a statement that the
coating operation(s) was (were) in compliance with the emission
limitations during the initial compliance period because you used no
coatings for which the organic HAP content exceeded the applicable
emission limit in Sec. 63.4690, and you used no thinners or cleaning
materials that contained organic HAP, determined according to paragraph
(a) of this section.
Sec. 63.4742 How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the
emission limitations?

compliance, you must use no coating for which the organic HAP content
determined using Equation 2 of Sec. 63.4741 exceeds the
[[Page 31769]]
applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690; and use no thinner or
cleaning material that contains organic HAP, determined according to
Sec. 63.4741(a). A compliance period consists of 12 months. Each month
after the end of the initial compliance period described in Sec.
63.4740 is the end of a compliance period consisting of that month and
the preceding 11 months.
(b) If you choose to comply with the emission limitations by using
the compliant material option, the use of any coating, thinner, or
cleaning material that does not meet the criteria specified in
paragraph (a) of this section is a deviation from the emission
limitations that must be reported as specified in Sec. Sec.
63.4710(c)(6) and 63.4720(a)(5).
(c) As part of each semiannual compliance report required by Sec.
63.4720, you must identify the coating operation(s) for which you used
the compliant material option. If there were no deviations from the
emission limitations in Sec. 63.4690, submit a statement that the
coating operation(s) was (were) in compliance with the emission
limitations during the reporting period because you used no coating for
which the organic HAP content exceeded the applicable emission limit in
Sec. 63.4690, and you used no thinner or cleaning material that
contained organic HAP, determined according to Sec. 63.4741(a).
(d) You must maintain records as specified in Sec. Sec. 63.4730

Compliance Requirements for the Emission Rate Without Add-On Controls
Option
Sec. 63.4750 By what date must I conduct the initial compliance
demonstration?
You must complete the initial compliance demonstration for the
initial compliance period according to the requirements of Sec.
63.4751. The initial compliance period begins on the applicable
compliance date specified in Sec. 63.4683 and ends on the last day of
the 12th month following the compliance date. If the compliance date
occurs on any day other than the first day of a month, then the initial
compliance period extends through the end of that month plus the next
12 months. You must determine the mass of organic HAP emissions and
volume of coating solids used each month and then calculate a 12-month
organic HAP emission rate at the end of the initial 12-month compliance
period. The initial compliance demonstration includes the calculations
according to Sec. 63.4751 and supporting documentation showing that
during the initial compliance period the organic HAP emission rate was
equal to or less than the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690.
Sec. 63.4751 How do I demonstrate initial compliance with the
emission limitations?
You may use the emission rate without add-on controls option for
any individual coating operation, for any group of coating operations
in the affected source, or for all the coating operations in the
affected source. You must use either the compliant material option or
the emission rate with add-on controls option for any coating operation
in the affected source for which you do not use this option. To
demonstrate initial compliance using the emission rate without add-on
controls option, the coating operation or group of coating operations
must meet the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690. Any coating
operation for which you use the emission rate without add-on controls
option is not required to meet the operating limits or work practice
standards required in Sec. Sec. 63.4692 and 63.4693, respectively. You
must meet all the requirements of this section to demonstrate initial
compliance with the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690 for the
coating operation(s). When calculating the organic HAP emission rate
according to this section, do not include any coatings, thinners, or
cleaning materials used on coating operations for which you use the
compliant material option or the emission rate with add-on controls
option. You do not need to redetermine the mass of organic HAP in
coatings, thinners, or cleaning materials that have been reclaimed
onsite and reused in the coating operation(s) for which you use the
emission rate without add-on controls option.

of each coating, thinner, and cleaning material used during each month
from test results using ASTM Method D1475-90, information from the
supplier or manufacturer of the material, or reference sources
providing density or specific gravity data for pure materials. If there
is disagreement between ASTM Method D1475-90 test results and such
other information sources, the test results will take precedence.
(d) Determine the volume of each material used. Determine the
volume (liters) of each coating, thinner, and cleaning material used
during each month by measurement or usage records.
(e) Calculate the mass of organic HAP emissions. The mass of
organic HAP emissions is the combined mass of organic HAP contained in

compliance date specified in Sec. 63.4683 and ends on the last day of
the 12th month following the compliance date. If the compliance date
occurs on any day other than the first day of a month, then the initial
compliance period extends through the end of that month plus the next
12 months. You must determine the mass of organic HAP emissions and
volume of coating solids used each month and then calculate a 12-month
organic HAP emission rate at the end of the initial 12-month compliance
period. The initial compliance demonstration includes the results of
emission capture system and add-on control device performance tests

monitoring required by Sec. 63.4768; and
[[Page 31772]]
documentation of whether you developed and implemented the work
practice plan required by Sec. 63.4693.
Sec. 63.4761 How do I demonstrate initial compliance?
(a) You may use the emission rate with add-on controls option for
any coating operation, for any group of coating operations in the
affected source, or for all of the coating operations in the affected
source. You may include both controlled and uncontrolled coating
operations in a group for which you use this option. You must use
either the compliant material option or the emission rate without add-
on controls option for any coating operation in the affected source for
which you do not use the emission rate with add-on controls option. To
demonstrate initial compliance, the coating operation(s) for which you
use the emission rate with add-on controls option must meet the
applicable emission limitations in Sec. Sec. 63.4690, 63.4692, and
63.4693. You must meet all the requirements of this section to
demonstrate initial compliance with the emission limitations. When
calculating the organic HAP emission rate according to this section, do
not include any coatings, thinners, or cleaning materials used on
coating operations for which you use the compliant material option or
the emission rate without add-on controls option. You do not need to
redetermine the mass of organic HAP in coatings, thinners, or cleaning
materials that have been reclaimed and reused in the coating
operation(s) for which you use the emission rate with add-on controls
option.
(b) Compliance with operating limits. Except as provided in Sec.
63.4760(a)(4), and except for solvent recovery systems for which you
conduct liquid-liquid material balances according to the requirements
of Sec. 63.4761(j), you must establish and demonstrate continuous
compliance during the initial compliance period with the operating
limits required by Sec. 63.4692, using the procedures specified in
Sec. Sec. 63.4767 and 63.4768.
(c) Compliance with work practice requirements. You must develop,
implement, and document your implementation of the work practice plan
required by Sec. 63.4693 during the initial compliance period, as
specified in Sec. 63.4730.

in paragraphs (e) through (n) of this section to demonstrate compliance
with the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690.
(e) Determine the mass fraction of organic HAP, density, volume
used, and volume fraction of coating solids. Follow the procedures
specified in Sec. 63.4751(a) through (d) to determine the mass
fraction of organic HAP, density, and volume of each coating, thinner,
and cleaning material used during each month; and the volume fraction
of coating solids for each coating used during each month.
(f) Calculate the total mass of organic HAP emissions before add-on
controls. Using Equation 1 of Sec. 63.4751, calculate the total mass
of organic HAP emissions before add-on controls from all coatings,
thinners, and cleaning materials used during each month in the coating
operation or group of coating operations for which you use the emission
rate with add-on controls option.
(g) Calculate the organic HAP emission reduction for each
controlled coating operation. Determine the mass of organic HAP
emissions reduced for each controlled coating operation during each
month. The emission reduction determination quantifies the total
organic HAP emissions that pass through the emission capture system and
are destroyed or removed by the add-on control device. Use the
procedures in paragraph (h) of this section to calculate the mass of
organic HAP emission reduction for each controlled coating operation
using an emission capture system and add-on control device other than a
solvent recovery system for which you conduct liquid-liquid material
balances. For each controlled coating operation using a solvent
recovery system for which you conduct a liquid-liquid material balance,
use the procedures in paragraph (j) of this section to calculate the
organic HAP emission reduction.
(h) Calculate the organic HAP emission reduction for each
controlled coating operation not using liquid-liquid material balances.
For each controlled coating operation using an emission capture system
and add-on control device other than a solvent recovery system for
which you conduct liquid-liquid material balances, calculate the
organic HAP emission reduction, using Equation 1 of this section. The
calculation applies the emission capture system efficiency and add-on
control device efficiency to the mass of organic HAP contained in the
coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials that are used in the coating
operation served by the emission capture system and add-on control
device during each month. For any period of time a deviation specified
in Sec. 63.4763(c) or (d) occurs in the controlled coating operation,
including a deviation during a period of SSM, you must assume zero
efficiency for the emission capture system and add-on control device.
Equation 1 of this section treats the materials used during such a
deviation as if they were used on an uncontrolled coating operation for
the time period of the deviation.

(n) Compliance demonstration. To demonstrate initial compliance
with the emission limit, the organic HAP emission rate, calculated
using Equation 5 of this section, must be less than or equal to the
applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690. You must keep all records
as required by Sec. Sec. 63.4730 and 63.4731. As part of the
Notification of Compliance Status required by Sec. 63.4710, you must
identify the coating operation(s) for which you used the emission rate
with add-on controls option and submit a statement that the coating
operation(s) was (were) in compliance with the emission limitations
during the initial compliance period because the organic HAP emission
rate was less than or equal to the applicable emission limit in Sec.
63.4690, and you achieved the operating limits required by Sec.
63.4692
[[Page 31776]]
and the work practice standards required by Sec. 63.4693.
Sec. 63.4762 [Reserved]
Sec. 63.4763 How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the
emission limitations?
(a) To demonstrate continuous compliance with the applicable
emission limit in Sec. 63.4690, the organic HAP emission rate for each
compliance period, calculated using Equation 5 of Sec. 63.4761, must
be equal to or less than the applicable emission limit in Sec.
63.4690. A compliance period consists of 12 months. Each month after
the end of the initial compliance period described in Sec. 63.4760 is
the end of a compliance period consisting of that month and the
preceding 11 months. You must perform the calculations in Sec. 63.4761
on a monthly basis using data from the previous 12 months of operation.
(b) If the organic HAP emission rate for any 12-month compliance
period exceeded the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.4690, this is
a deviation from the emission limitation for that compliance period and
must be reported as specified in Sec. Sec. 63.4710(c)(6) and
63.4720(a)(7).
(c) You must demonstrate continuous compliance with each operating
limit required by Sec. 63.4692 that applies to you, as specified in
Table 3 to this subpart.
(1) If an operating parameter is out of the allowed range specified
in Table 3 to this subpart, this is a deviation from the operating
limit that must be reported as specified in Sec. Sec. 63.4710(c)(6)
and 63.4720(a)(7).
(2) If an operating parameter deviates from the operating limit
specified in Table 3 to this subpart, then you must assume that the
emission capture system and add-on control device were achieving zero
efficiency during the time period of the deviation. For the purposes of
completing the compliance calculations specified in Sec. 63.4761(h),
you must treat the materials used during a deviation on a controlled
coating operation as if they were used on an uncontrolled coating
operation for the time period of the deviation, as indicated in
Equation 1 of Sec. 63.4761.
(d) You must meet the requirements for bypass lines in Sec.
63.4768(b) for controlled coating operations for which you do not
conduct liquid-liquid material balances. If any bypass line is opened
and emissions are diverted to the atmosphere when a controlled coating
operation is running, this is a deviation that must be reported as
specified in Sec. Sec. 63.4710(c)(6) and 63.4720(a)(7). For the
purposes of completing the compliance calculations specified in Sec.
63.4761(h), you must treat the materials used during a deviation on a
controlled coating operation as if they were used on an uncontrolled
coating operation for the time period of the deviation, as indicated in
Equation 1 of Sec. 63.4761.
(e) You must demonstrate continuous compliance with the work
practice standards in Sec. 63.4693. If you did not develop a work
practice plan, or you did not implement the plan, or you did not keep
the records required by Sec. 63.4730(k)(8), this is a deviation from
the work practice standards that must be reported as specified in
Sec. Sec. 63.4710(c)(6) and 63.4720(a)(7).
(f) As part of each semiannual compliance report required in Sec.
63.4720, you must identify the coating operation(s) for which you used
the emission rate with add-on controls option. If there were no
deviations from the emission limitations, submit a statement that you
were in compliance with the emission limitations during the reporting
period because the organic HAP emission rate for each compliance period
was less than or equal to the applicable emission limit in Sec.
63.4690, and you achieved the operating limits required by Sec.
63.4692 and the work practice standards required by Sec. 63.4693
during each compliance period.
(g) During periods of SSM of the emission capture system, add-on
control device, or coating operation that may affect emission capture
or control device efficiency, you must operate in accordance with the
SSMP required by Sec. 63.4700(d).
(h) Consistent with Sec. Sec. 63.6(e) and 63.7(e)(1), deviations
that occur during a period of SSM of the emission capture system, add-
on control device, or coating operation that may affect emission
capture or control device efficiency are not violations if you
demonstrate to the Administrator's satisfaction that you were operating
in accordance with the SSMP. The Administrator will determine whether
deviations that occur during a period you identify as an SSM are
violations, according to the provisions in Sec. 63.6(e).
(i) [Reserved]
(j) You must maintain records as specified in Sec. Sec. 63.4730
and 63.4731.
Sec. 63.4764 What are the general requirements for performance tests?
(a) You must conduct each performance test required by Sec.
63.4760 according to the requirements in Sec. 63.7(e)(1) and under the
conditions in this section unless you obtain a waiver of the
performance test according to the provisions in Sec. 63.7(h).
(1) Representative coating operation operating conditions. You must
conduct the performance test under representative operating conditions
for the coating operation. Operations during periods of SSM, and during
periods of nonoperation do not constitute representative conditions.
You must record the process information that is necessary to document
operating conditions during the test and explain why the conditions
represent normal operation.
(2) Representative emission capture system and add-on control
device operating conditions. You must conduct the performance test when
the emission capture system and add-on control device are operating at
a representative flow rate, and the add-on control device is operating
at a representative inlet concentration. You must record information
that is necessary to document emission capture system and add-on
control device operating conditions during the test and explain why the
conditions represent normal operation.
(b) You must conduct each performance test of an emission capture
system according to the requirements in Sec. 63.4765. You must conduct
each performance test of an add-on control device according to the
requirements in Sec. 63.4766.
Sec. 63.4765 How do I determine the emission capture system
efficiency?
You must use the procedures and test methods in this section to
determine capture efficiency as part of the performance test required
by Sec. 63.4760.
(a) Assuming 100 percent capture efficiency. You may assume the
capture system efficiency is 100 percent if both of the conditions in
paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this section are met:
(1) The capture system meets the criteria in Method 204 of appendix
M to 40 CFR part 51 for a PTE and directs all the exhaust gases from
the enclosure to an add-on control device.
(2) All coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials used in the
coating operation are applied within the capture system; coating
solvent flash-off and coating, curing, and drying occurs within the
capture system; and the removal or evaporation of cleaning materials
from the surfaces they are applied to occurs within the capture system.
For example, this criterion is not met if parts enter the open shop
environment when being moved between a spray booth and a curing oven.
[[Page 31777]]
(b) Measuring capture efficiency. If the capture system does not
meet both of the criteria in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this section,
then you must use one of the three protocols described in paragraphs
(c), (d), and (e) of this section to measure capture efficiency. The
capture efficiency measurements use TVH capture efficiency as a
surrogate for organic HAP capture efficiency. For the protocols in
paragraphs (c) and (d) of this section, the capture efficiency
measurement must consist of three test runs. Each test run must be at
least 3 hours in duration or the length of a production run, whichever
is longer, up to 8 hours. For the purposes of this test, a production
run means the time required for a single part to go from the beginning
to the end of production, which includes surface preparation activities
and drying or curing time.
(c) Liquid-to-uncaptured-gas protocol using a temporary total
enclosure or building enclosure. The liquid-to-uncaptured-gas protocol
compares the mass of liquid TVH in materials used in the coating
operation to the mass of TVH emissions not captured by the emission
capture system. Use a temporary total enclosure or a building enclosure
and the procedures in paragraphs (c)(1) through (6) of this section to
measure emission capture system efficiency using the liquid-to-
uncaptured-gas protocol.
(1) Either use a building enclosure or construct an enclosure
around the coating operation where coatings, thinners, and cleaning
materials are applied, and all areas where emissions from these applied
coatings and materials subsequently occur, such as flash-off, curing,
and drying areas. The areas of the coating operation where capture
devices collect emissions for routing to an add-on control device, such
as the entrance and exit areas of an oven or spray booth, must also be
inside the enclosure. The enclosure must meet the applicable definition
of a temporary total enclosure or building enclosure in Method 204 of
appendix M to 40 CFR part 51.
(2) Use Method 204A or 204F of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 to
determine the mass fraction of TVH liquid input from each coating,
thinner, and cleaning material used in the coating operation during
each capture efficiency test run. To make the determination, substitute
TVH for each occurrence of the term volatile organic compounds (VOC) in
the methods.
(3) Use Equation 1 of this section to calculate the total mass of
TVH liquid input from all the coatings, thinners, and cleaning
materials used in the coating operation during each capture efficiency
test run.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR98AD03.020
Where:
TVHused = Mass of liquid TVH in materials used in the
coating operation during the capture efficiency test run, grams.
TVHi = Mass fraction of TVH in coating, thinner, or cleaning
material, i, that is used in the coating operation during the capture
efficiency test run, grams TVH per gram material.
Voli = Total volume of coating, thinner, or cleaning
material, i, used in the coating operation during the capture
efficiency test run, liters.
Di = Density of coating, thinner, or cleaning material, i,
grams material per liter material.
n = Number of different coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials used
in the coating operation during the capture efficiency test run.
(4) Use Method 204D or E of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 to measure
the total mass, grams, of TVH emissions that are not captured by the
emission capture system; they are measured as they exit the temporary
total enclosure or building enclosure during each capture efficiency
test run. To make the measurement, substitute TVH for each occurrence
of the term VOC in the methods.
(i) Use Method 204D of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 if the
enclosure is a temporary total enclosure.
(ii) Use Method 204E of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 if the
enclosure is a building enclosure. During the capture efficiency
measurement, all organic compound emitting operations inside the
building enclosure, other than the coating operation for which capture
efficiency is being determined, must be shut down, but all fans and
blowers must be operating normally.
(5) For each capture efficiency test run, determine the percent
capture efficiency of the emission capture system using Equation 2 of
this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR98AD03.021
Where:
CE = Capture efficiency of the emission capture system vented to the
add-on control device, percent.
TVHused = Total mass of TVH liquid input used in the coating
operation during the capture efficiency test run, grams.
TVHuncaptured = Total mass of TVH that is not captured by
the emission capture system and that exits from the temporary total
enclosure or building enclosure during the capture efficiency test run,
grams, determined according to paragraph (c)(4) of this section.
(6) Determine the capture efficiency of the emission capture system
as the average of the capture efficiencies measured in the three test
runs.
(d) Gas-to-gas protocol using a temporary total enclosure or a
building enclosure. The gas-to-gas protocol compares the mass of TVH
emissions captured by the emission capture system to the mass of TVH
emissions not captured. Use a temporary total enclosure or a building
enclosure and the procedures in paragraphs (d)(1) through (5) of this
section to measure emission capture system efficiency using the gas-to-
gas protocol.
(1) Either use a building enclosure or construct an enclosure
around the coating operation where coatings, thinners, and cleaning
materials are applied, and all areas where emissions from these applied
coatings and materials subsequently occur, such as
[[Page 31778]]
flash-off, curing, and drying areas. The areas of the coating operation
where capture devices collect emissions generated by the coating
operation for routing to an add-on control device, such as the entrance
and exit areas of an oven or a spray booth, must also be inside the
enclosure. The enclosure must meet the applicable definition of a
temporary total enclosure or building enclosure in Method 204 of
appendix M to 40 CFR part 51.
(2) Use Method 204B or 204C of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 to
measure the total mass, grams, of TVH emissions captured by the
emission capture system during each capture efficiency test run as
measured at the inlet to the add-on control device. To make the
measurement, substitute TVH for each occurrence of the term VOC in the
methods.
(i) The sampling points for the Method 204B or 204C of appendix M
to 40 CFR part 51 measurement must be upstream from the add-on control
device and must represent total emissions routed from the capture
system and entering the add-on control device.
(ii) If multiple emission streams from the capture system enter the
add-on control device without a single common duct, then the emissions
entering the add-on control device must be simultaneously measured in
each duct, and the total emissions entering the add-on control device
must be determined.
(3) Use Method 204D or 204E of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 to
measure the total mass, grams, of TVH emissions that are not captured
by the emission capture system; they are measured as they exit the
temporary total enclosure or building enclosure during each capture
efficiency test run. To make the measurement, substitute TVH for each
occurrence of the term VOC in the methods.
(i) Use Method 204D of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 if the
enclosure is a temporary total enclosure.
(ii) Use Method 204E of appendix M to 40 CFR part 51 if the
enclosure is a building enclosure. During the capture efficiency
measurement, all organic compound emitting operations inside the
building enclosure, other than the coating operation for which capture
efficiency is being determined, must be shut down, but all fans and
blowers must be operating normally.
(4) For each capture efficiency test run, determine the percent
capture efficiency of the emission capture system using Equation 3 of
this section:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR98AD03.022
Where:
CE = Capture efficiency of the emission capture system vented to the
add-on control device, percent.
TVHcaptured = Total mass of TVH captured by the emission
capture system as measured at the inlet to the add-on control device
during the emission capture efficiency test run, grams, determined
according to paragraph (d)(2) of this section.
TVHuncaptured = Total mass of TVH that is not captured by
the emission capture system and that exits from the temporary total
enclosure or building enclosure during the capture efficiency test run,
grams, determined according to paragraph (d)(3) of this section.
(5) Determine the capture efficiency of the emission capture system
as the average of the capture efficiencies measured in the three test
runs.
(e) Alternative capture efficiency protocol. As an alternative to
the procedures specified in paragraphs (c) and (d) of this section, you
may determine capture efficiency using any other capture efficiency
protocol and test methods that satisfy the criteria of either the DQO
or LCL approach as described in appendix A to subpart KK of this part.
Sec. 63.4766 How do I determine the add-on control device emission
destruction or removal efficiency?
You must use the procedures and test methods in this section to
determine the add-on control device emission destruction or removal
efficiency as part of the performance test required by Sec. 63.4760.
You must conduct three test runs as specified in Sec. 63.7(e)(3), and
each test run must last at least 1 hour.
(a) For all types of add-on control devices, use the test methods
specified in paragraphs (a)(1) through (5) of this section.
(1) Use Method 1 or 1A of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60, as
appropriate, to select sampling sites and velocity traverse points.
(2) Use Method 2, 2A, 2C, 2D, 2F, or 2G of appendix A to 40 CFR
part 60, as appropriate, to measure gas volumetric flow rate.
(3) Use Method 3, 3A, or 3B of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60, as
appropriate, for gas analysis to determine dry molecular weight. You
may also use as an alternative to Method 3B, the manual method for
measuring the oxygen, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide content of
exhaust gas in ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981, ``Flue and Exhaust Gas
Analyses [Part 10, Instruments and Apparatus]'' (incorporated by
reference, see Sec. 63.14).
(4) Use Method 4 of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60 to determine stack
gas moisture.
(5) Methods for determining gas volumetric flow rate, dry molecular
weight, and stack gas moisture must be performed, as applicable, during
each test run.
(b) Measure total gaseous organic mass emissions as carbon at the
inlet and outlet of the add-on control device simultaneously, using
either Method 25 or 25A of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60, as specified
in paragraphs (b)(1) through (3) of this section. You must use the same
method for both the inlet and outlet measurements.
(1) Use Method 25 of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60 if the add-on
control device is an oxidizer, and you expect the total gaseous organic
concentration as carbon to be more than 50 parts per million (ppm) at
the control device outlet.
(2) Use Method 25A of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60 if the add-on
control device is an oxidizer, and you expect the total gaseous organic
concentration as carbon to be 50 ppm or less at the control device
outlet.
(3) Use Method 25A of appendix A to 40 CFR part 60 if the add-on
control device is not an oxidizer.
(c) If two or more add-on control devices are used for the same
emission stream, then you must measure emissions at the outlet of each
device. For example, if one add-on control device is a concentrator
with an outlet for the high-volume, dilute stream that has been treated
by the concentrator, and a second add-on control device is an oxidizer
with an outlet for the low-volume, concentrated stream that is treated
with the oxidizer, you must measure emissions at the outlet of the
[[Page 31779]]
oxidizer and the high volume dilute stream outlet of the concentrator.
(d) For each test run, determine the total gaseous organic
emissions mass flow rates for the inlet and the outlet of the add-on
control device, using Equation 1 of this section. If there is more than
one inlet or outlet to the add-on control device, you must calculate
the total gaseous organic mass flow rate using Equation 1 of this
section for each inlet and each outlet and then total all of the inlet
emissions and total all of the outlet emissions.

2G, dry standard cubic meters/hour (dscm/h).
41.6 = Conversion factor for molar volume, gram-moles per cubic meter
(mol/m3) (@ 293 Kelvin (K) and 760 millimeters of mercury

the three test runs and calculated in Equation 2 of this section.
Sec. 63.4767 How do I establish the emission capture system and add-
on control device operating limits during the performance test?
During the performance test required by Sec. 63.4760 and described
in Sec. Sec. 63.4764, 63.4765, and 63.4766, you must establish the
operating limits required by Sec. 63.4692 according to this section,
unless you have received approval for alternative monitoring and
operating limits under Sec. 63.8(f) as specified in Sec. 63.4692.
(a) Thermal oxidizers. If your add-on control device is a thermal
oxidizer, establish the operating limits according to paragraphs (a)(1)
and (2) of this section.
(1) During the performance test, you must monitor and record the
combustion temperature at least once every 15 minutes during each of
the three test runs. You must monitor the temperature in the firebox of
the thermal oxidizer or immediately downstream of the firebox before
any substantial heat exchange occurs.
(2) Use the data collected during the performance test to calculate
and record the average combustion temperature maintained during the
performance test. This average combustion temperature is the minimum
operating limit for your thermal oxidizer.

regenerative catalytic oxidizers, the inlet to the catalyst is defined
as the general zone between the inlets to the catalyst beds located in
the multiple regeneration towers; select either a monitoring location
or multiple monitoring locations. If multiple monitoring locations are
selected, either establish separate operating limits for each location
or calculate an average of the multiple measurements and set a single
operating limit.)
(4) You must develop and implement an inspection and maintenance
plan for your catalytic oxidizer(s) for which you elect to monitor
according to paragraph (b)(3) of this section. The plan must address,

(ii) Monthly inspection of the oxidizer system, including the
burner assembly and fuel supply lines for problems and, as necessary,
adjust the equipment to assure proper air-to-fuel mixtures.
(iii) Annual internal and monthly external visual inspection of the
catalyst bed to check for channeling, abrasion, and settling. If
problems are found, you must take corrective action consistent with the
manufacturer's recommendation and conduct a new performance test to
determine destruction efficiency according to Sec. 63.4766.

of this section.
(1) During the performance test, you must monitor and record the
condenser outlet (product side) gas temperature at least once every 15
minutes during each of the three test runs.
(2) Use the data collected during the performance test to calculate

pressure drop of the dilute stream across the concentrator at least
once every 15 minutes during each of the three runs of the performance
test.
(4) Use the data collected during the performance test to calculate

part of a PTE that meets the criteria of Sec. 63.4765(a), establish an
operating limit for either the gas volumetric flow rate or duct static
pressure, as specified in paragraphs (f)(1) and (2) of this section.
The operating limit for a PTE is specified in Table 3 to this subpart.
(1) During the capture efficiency determination required by Sec.
63.4760 and described in Sec. Sec. 63.4764 and 63.4765, you must
monitor and record either the gas volumetric flow rate or the duct
static pressure for each separate capture device in your emission
capture system at least once every 15 minutes during each of the three
test runs at a point in the duct between the capture device and the
add-on control device inlet.
(2) Calculate and record the average gas volumetric flow rate or

This average gas volumetric flow rate or duct static pressure is the
minimum operating limit for that specific capture device.
Sec. 63.4768 What are the requirements for continuous parameter
monitoring system installation, operation, and maintenance?
(a) General. You must install, operate, and maintain each CPMS
specified in paragraphs (c), (e), (f), and (g) of this section
according to paragraphs (a)(1) through (6) of this section. You must
install, operate, and maintain each CPMS specified in paragraphs (b)
and (d) of this section according to paragraphs (a)(3) through (5) of
this section.
(1) The CPMS must complete a minimum of one cycle of operation for
each successive 15-minute period. You must have a minimum of four
equally spaced successive cycles of CPMS operation in 1 hour.
(2) You must determine the average of all recorded readings for
each successive 3-hour period of the emission capture system and add-on
control device operation.
(3) You must record the results of each inspection, calibration,
and validation check of the CPMS.
(4) You must maintain the CPMS at all times and have available
necessary parts for routine repairs of the monitoring equipment.
(5) You must operate the CPMS and collect emission capture system
and add-on control device parameter data at all times that a controlled
coating operation is operating, except during monitoring malfunctions,
associated repairs, and required quality assurance or control
activities (including, if applicable, calibration checks and required
zero and span adjustments).
(6) You must not use emission capture system or add-on control
device parameter data recorded during periods when the control device
is not receiving emissions, monitoring malfunctions, associated
repairs, out-of-control periods, or required quality assurance or
control activities when calculating data averages. You must use all the
data collected during all other periods in calculating the data
averages for determining compliance with the emission capture system
and add-on control device operating limits.
(7) A monitoring malfunction is any sudden, infrequent, not
reasonably preventable failure of the CPMS to provide valid data.
Monitoring failures that are caused in part by poor maintenance or
careless operation are not malfunctions. Any period for which the
monitoring system is out-of-control and data are not available for
required calculations is a deviation from the monitoring requirements.
(b) Capture system bypass line. You must meet the requirements of
paragraphs (b)(1) and (2) of this section for each emission capture
system that contains bypass lines that could divert emissions away from
the add-on control device to the atmosphere.

controlling the bypass line in a nondiverting position in such a way
that the valve or closure mechanism cannot be opened without creating a
record that the valve was opened. The method used to monitor or secure
the valve or closure mechanism must meet one of the requirements
specified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i) through (iv) of this section.
(i) Flow control position indicator. Install, calibrate, maintain,
and operate according to the manufacturer's specifications a flow
control position indicator that takes a reading at least once every 15
minutes and provides a record indicating whether the emissions are
directed to the add-on control device or diverted from the add-on
control device. The time of occurrence and flow control position must
be recorded, as well as every time the flow direction is changed. The
flow control position indicator must be installed at the entrance to
any bypass line that could divert the emissions away from the add-on
control device to the atmosphere.
(ii) Car-seal or lock-and-key valve closures. Secure any bypass
line valve in the closed position with a car-seal or a lock-and-key
type configuration. You must visually inspect the seal or closure
mechanism at least once every month to ensure that the valve is
maintained in the closed position, and the emissions are not diverted
away from the add-on control device to the atmosphere.
(iii) Valve closure monitoring. Ensure that any bypass line valve
is in the closed (non-diverting) position through monitoring of valve
position at least once every 15 minutes. You must inspect the
monitoring system at least once every month to verify that the monitor
will indicate valve position.
(iv) Automatic shutdown system. Use an automatic shutdown system in
which the coating operation is stopped when flow is diverted by the
bypass line away from the add-on control device to the atmosphere when
the coating operation is running. You must inspect the automatic
shutdown system at least once every month to verify that it will detect
diversions of flow and shut down the coating operation.
[[Page 31781]]
(2) If any bypass line is opened and there was a deviation from the
applicable emission limitation, you must include a description of why
the bypass line was opened and the length of time it remained open in

you established operating limits according to Sec. 63.4767(b)(1) and
(2), also install a gas temperature monitor in the gas stream
immediately after the catalyst bed.
(i) If you establish operating limits according to Sec.
63.4767(b)(1) and (2), then you must install the gas temperature
monitors both upstream and downstream of the catalyst bed. The
temperature monitors must be in the gas stream immediately before and
after the catalyst bed to measure the temperature difference across the
bed.
(ii) If you establish operating limits according to Sec.
63.4767(b)(3) and (4), then you must install a gas temperature monitor
upstream of the catalyst bed. The temperature monitor must be in the
