National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and
Other Web Coating Residual Risk and
Technology Review
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This action finalizes the
residual risk and technology review
(RTR) conducted for the Paper and
Other Web Coating (POWC) source
category regulated under national
emission standards for hazardous air
pollutants (NESHAP). The Agency is
finalizing the proposed determination
that risks due to emissions of air toxics
are acceptable from this source category
and that the current NESHAP provides
an ample margin of safety to protect
public health. Further, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
identified no new cost-effective controls
under the technology review that would
achieve significant further emissions
reductions, and, thus, is finalizing the
proposed determination that no
revisions to the standards are necessary
based on developments in practices,
processes, or control technologies. In
addition, the Agency is taking final
action addressing startup, shutdown,
and malfunction (SSM). These final
amendments address emissions during
SSM events, add a compliance
demonstration equation that accounts
for retained volatiles in the coated web;
add repeat testing and electronic
reporting requirements; and make
technical and editorial changes. The
EPA is making these amendments to
improve the effectiveness of the
NESHAP, and although these
amendments are not expected to reduce
emissions of hazardous air pollutants
(HAP), they will improve monitoring,
compliance, and implementation of the
rule.
DATES: This final rule is effective on July
9, 2020. The incorporation by reference
(IBR) of certain publications listed in
the rule is approved by the Director of
the Federal Register as of July 9, 2020.

further provides that only an objection
to a rule or procedure which was raised
with reasonable specificity during the
period for public comment (including
any public hearing) may be raised
during judicial review. This section also
provides a mechanism for the EPA to
reconsider the rule if the person raising
an objection can demonstrate to the
Administrator that it was impracticable
to raise such objection within the period
for public comment or if the grounds for
such objection arose after the period for
public comment (but within the time
specified for judicial review) and if such
objection is of central relevance to the
outcome of the rule. Any person seeking
to make such a demonstration should
submit a Petition for Reconsideration to
the Office of the Administrator, U.S.

II. Background
A. What is the statutory authority for
this action?
Section 112 of the CAA establishes a
two-stage regulatory process to address
emissions of HAP from stationary
sources. In the first stage, the Agency
must identify categories of sources
emitting one or more of the HAP listed
in CAA section 112(b) and then
promulgate technology-based NESHAP
for those sources. ‘‘Major sources’’ are
those that emit, or have the potential to
emit, any single HAP at a rate of 10 tons
per year (tpy) or more, or 25 tpy or more
of any combination of HAP. For major
sources, these standards are commonly
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
41278
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
referred to as maximum achievable
control technology (MACT) standards
and must reflect the maximum degree of
emission reductions of HAP achievable
(after considering cost, energy
requirements, and non-air quality health
and environmental impacts). In
developing MACT standards, CAA
section 112(d)(2) directs the EPA to
consider the application of measures,
processes, methods, systems, or
techniques, including, but not limited
to, those that reduce the volume of or
eliminate HAP emissions through
process changes, substitution of
materials, or other modifications;
enclose systems or processes to
eliminate emissions; collect, capture, or
treat HAP when released from a process,
stack, storage, or fugitive emissions
point; are design, equipment, work
practice, or operational standards; or
any combination of the above.
For these MACT standards, the statute
specifies certain minimum stringency
requirements, which are referred to as
MACT floor requirements, and which
may not be based on cost
considerations. See CAA section
112(d)(3). For new sources, the MACT
floor cannot be less stringent than the
emission control achieved in practice by
the best-controlled similar source. The
MACT standards for existing sources
can be less stringent than floors for new
sources, but they cannot be less
stringent than the average emission
limitation achieved by the bestperforming 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
standards, the Agency must also
consider control options that are more
stringent than the floor under CAA
section 112(d)(2). The EPA may
establish standards more stringent than
the floor, based on the consideration of
the cost of achieving the emissions
reductions, any non-air quality health
and environmental impacts, and energy
requirements.
In the second stage of the regulatory
process, the CAA requires the EPA to
undertake two different analyses, which
we refer to as the technology review and
the residual risk review. Under the
technology review, the EPA must review
the technology-based standards and
revise them ‘‘as necessary (taking into
account developments in practices,
processes, and control technologies)’’ no
less frequently than every 8 years,
pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6).
Under the residual risk review, the EPA
must evaluate the risk to public health
remaining after application of the
technology-based standards and revise
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:54 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
the standards, if necessary, to provide
an ample margin of safety to protect
public health or to prevent, taking into
consideration costs, energy, safety, and
other relevant factors, an adverse
environmental effect. The residual risk
review is required within 8 years after
promulgation of the technology-based
standards, pursuant to CAA section
112(f). In conducting the residual risk
review, if the EPA determines that the
current standards provide an ample
margin of safety to protect public health,
it is not necessary to revise the MACT
standards pursuant to CAA section
112(f).1 For more information on the
statutory authority for this rule, see 84
FR 49382 (September 19, 2019).
B. What is the POWC source category
and how does the NESHAP regulate
HAP emissions From the source
category?
The EPA promulgated the POWC
NESHAP on December 4, 2002 (67 FR
72330). The standards are codified at 40
CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ. The POWC
source category includes new and
existing facilities that coat paper and
other web substrates that are major
sources of HAP emissions. For purposes
of the regulation, a web is defined as a
continuous substrate that is capable of
being rolled at any point during the
coating process. Further, a web coating
line is any number of work stations, of
which one or more applies a continuous
layer of coating material along the entire
width of a continuous web substrate or
any portion of the width of the web
substrate, and any associated curing/
drying equipment between an unwind
(or feed) station and a rewind (or
cutting) station. The source category
covered by this NESHAP currently
includes 168 facilities.
Web coating operations covered by
other NESHAP (i.e., Printing and
Publishing, 40 CFR part 63, subpart KK;
Magnetic Tape, 40 CFR part 63, subpart
EE; Metal Coil Coating, 40 CFR part 63,
subpart SSSS; Fabric Coating, 40 CFR
part 63, subpart OOOO), and research
and development lines are excluded
from the requirements of 40 CFR part
63, subpart JJJJ. In addition, specific
process exclusions include lithography,
screen printing, letterpress, and narrow
web flexographic printing.
Facilities subject to the POWC
NESHAP utilize low-solvent coatings,
add-on controls, or a combination of

implementing CAA section 112(f)(2)(A): NRDC v.

determines that the existing technology-based
standards provide an ‘ample margin of safety,’ then
the Agency is free to readopt those standards during
the residual risk rulemaking.’’).

both to meet the organic HAP emission
limits, as described in the preamble to
the proposed rule (84 FR 49385,
September 19, 2019). The NESHAP also
includes various operating limits, initial
and continuous compliance
requirements, and recordkeeping and
reporting requirements for the POWC
source category. The EPA reviewed
these requirements and are updating
them as part of this action in
conjunction with finalizing the RTR for
this source category
C. What changes did we propose for the
POWC source category in our September
19, 2019, proposal?
On September 19, 2019, the EPA
published a proposed rule in the
Federal Register for the POWC
NESHAP, 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ,
that took into consideration the RTR
analyses. As discussed in the preamble
to the proposed rule, the technology
review did not identify any
developments in practices, processes, or
control technologies that were widely
applicable to the industry that would
significantly reduce HAP emissions,
and, therefore, the Agency did not
propose any changes to the NESHAP
based on the technology review.
Further, as discussed in the preamble to
the proposed rule, the risk analysis
indicated no changes to the NESHAP
are necessary to reduce risk to an
acceptable level, to provide an ample
margin of safety to protect public health,
or to prevent an adverse environmental
effect. In addition to and separate from
the proposed determinations based on
our RTR analyses, the EPA proposed the
following:
• Revisions to the SSM provisions of
the NESHAP to ensure that they are
consistent with the Court decision in
Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F. 3d 1019 (D.C.
Cir. 2008), which vacated two
provisions that exempted sources from
the requirement to comply with
otherwise applicable CAA section
112(d) emission standards during
periods of SSM;
• a new compliance calculation to
account for retained volatile organic
content retained in the coated web;
• new periodic air emissions testing
requirements for facilities that use nonrecovery control devices;
• new reporting provisions requiring
affected sources to electronically submit
initial notifications, notification of
compliance status, semiannual
compliance reports, performance test
reports, and performance evaluation
reports;
• new temperature sensor validation
requirements;
• operating parameter clarifications;
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
• IBR of several test methods; and
• technical and editorial changes to
remove the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA)-defined
carcinogens reference, clarify
compliance demonstration options,
clarify the definition of coating
materials, add a web coating line usage
threshold, add a printing activity
exemption, clarify testing requirements,
change applicability of sources using
only non-HAP coatings, clarify oxidizer
temperature monitoring compliance,
and revise compliance report content
requirements.
III. What is included in this final rule?
This action is finalizing the EPA’s
determinations pursuant to the RTR
provisions of CAA section 112 for the
POWC source category. This action is
also finalizing other changes to the
NESHAP, including revisions to the
SSM requirements; a compliance
calculation to account for retained
volatile organic content retained in the
coated web; periodic testing
requirements for add-on control devices;
electronic submittal of initial
notifications, notification of compliance
status, semiannual compliance reports,
performance test reports, and
performance evaluation reports;
temperature sensor validation
requirements; operating parameter
clarifications; IBR of several test
methods; and various technical and
editorial changes.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
A. What are the final rule amendments
based on the risk review for the POWC
source category?
The EPA proposed no changes to the
POWC NESHAP based on the risk
review conducted pursuant to CAA
section 112(f). The EPA is finalizing the
proposed determination that risks from
the source category are acceptable,
considering all of the health information
and factors evaluated, and also
considering risk estimation uncertainty.
The Agency is also finalizing the
proposed determination that revisions
to the current standards are not
necessary to reduce risk to an acceptable
level, to provide an ample margin of
safety to protect public health, or to
prevent an adverse environmental
effect. The EPA received no new data or
other information during the public
comment period that affected the
proposed determinations. Therefore, the
EPA is finalizing the proposed
determination and making no revisions
to the NESHAP based on the analyses
conducted under CAA section 112(f),
and we are readopting the standards.

Jkt 250001
B. What are the final rule amendments
based on the technology review for the
POWC source category?
In the proposed rule, the EPA
proposed to determine that there are no
developments in practices, processes,
and control technologies that warrant
revisions to the MACT standards for this
source category. The EPA received no
new data or other information during
the public comment period that affected
our proposed determinations. Therefore,
the EPA is finalizing the proposed
determination and making no revisions
to the MACT standards under CAA
section 112(d)(6).
C. What are the final rule amendments
addressing emissions during periods of
SSM?
The EPA proposed amendments to the
POWC NESHAP to remove and revise
provisions related to SSM. The EPA is
finalizing the amendments, as proposed,
with minor clarifications with this
rulemaking. In its 2008 decision in
Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F.3d 1019 (D.C.
Cir. 2008), the Court vacated portions of
two provisions in the EPA’s CAA
section 112 regulations governing the
emissions of HAP during periods of
SSM. Specifically, the Court vacated the
SSM exemption contained in 40 CFR
63.6(f)(1) and 40 CFR 63.6(h)(1), holding
that under section 302(k) of the CAA,
emissions standards or limitations must
be continuous in nature and that the
SSM exemption violates the CAA’s
requirement that some CAA section 112
standards apply continuously. As
detailed in section IV.D of the preamble
to the proposed rule (84 FR 49382,
September 19, 2019), the amended
POWC NESHAP requires that the
standards apply at all times (see 40 CFR
63.3320(b)), consistent with the Court
decision in Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F.3d
1019 (D.C. Cir. 2008). In addition to
eliminating the SSM exemption, the
EPA has removed the requirement for
sources to develop and maintain an
SSM plan, as well as certain
recordkeeping and reporting provisions
related to the SSM exemption.
The EPA is finalizing the SSM
provisions as proposed without setting
a separate standard for startup and
shutdown as discussed in the preamble
to the proposed rule in section IV.D.
Further, the EPA is not finalizing
standards for malfunctions. As
discussed in the September 19, 2019,
proposal, the EPA interprets CAA
section 112 as not requiring emissions
that occur during periods of
malfunction to be factored into
development of CAA section 112
standards, although the EPA has the
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
41279
discretion to set standards for
malfunctions where feasible. For this
action, it is unlikely that a malfunction
would result in a violation of the
standards, and no comments were
submitted that would suggest otherwise.
Refer to section IV.D of the preamble to
the proposed rule for further discussion
of the EPA’s rationale for the decision
not to set standards for malfunctions, as
well as a discussion of the actions a
source could take in the unlikely event
that a source fails to comply with the
applicable CAA section 112(d)
standards as a result of a malfunction
event.
As explained in more detail below,
the EPA is finalizing revisions to the
General Provisions table to 40 CFR part
63, subpart JJJJ, to eliminate
requirements that include rule language
providing an exemption for periods of
SSM. Additionally, the EPA is finalizing
our proposal to eliminate language
related to SSM that treats periods of
startup and shutdown the same as
periods of malfunction, as explained
further below. Finally, the EPA is
finalizing the proposed amendments to
revise the reporting and recordkeeping
requirements as they relate to
malfunctions, as further described
below. As discussed in the preamble to
the proposed rule, these revisions are
consistent with the requirement in 40
CFR 63.3320(b) that the standards apply
at all times. Refer to sections IV.C of this
preamble for a detailed discussion of
these amendments.
D. What other changes have been made
to the NESHAP?
Other changes that have been made to
the regulation include incorporation of
a compliance calculation to account for
retained volatile organic content
retained in the coated web; periodic
performance testing requirements;
electronic submittal of initial
notifications, notification of compliance
status, semiannual compliance reports,
performance test reports, and
performance evaluation reports;
temperature sensor validation
requirements; operating parameter
clarifications; IBR of several test
methods; and various technical and
editorial changes. The EPA’s analyses

E. What are the effective and
compliance dates of the standards?
The revisions to the NESHAP being
promulgated in this action are effective
on July 9, 2020.2 The compliance date
for affected existing facilities is 365 days
after the effective date of the final rule,
with the exception of electronic
reporting of semiannual reports.
Affected source owners and operators
that commence construction or
reconstruction after September 19, 2019,
must comply with all requirements of
the subpart, including the amendments
being finalized with this action (except
for the electronic reporting of
semiannual reports), no later than the
effective date of the final rule or upon
startup, whichever is later. All affected
sources must use the Compliance and
Emissions Data Reporting Interface
(CEDRI) reporting template for
semiannual reports for the subsequent
semiannual reporting period after the
form has been available in CEDRI for 1
2 This final action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined
by 5 U.S.C. 804(2), so the effective date of the final
rule is the promulgation date as specified in CAA
section 112(d)(10).

year. All affected existing facilities must
meet the current requirements of 40 CFR
part 63, subpart JJJJ until the applicable
compliance date of the amended rule.
As explained in the preamble to the
proposed rule, the EPA proposed a
compliance period of 180 days for
existing sources because the
amendments would impact ongoing
compliance requirements (84 FR 79406,
September 19, 2019). Two significant
amendments, the removal of the SSM
exemption and the addition of
electronic reporting, were determined to
require additional time for changing
reporting and recordkeeping systems.
As stated in the preamble to the
proposed rule, the EPA’s experience
with similar industries that are required
to convert reporting mechanisms; install
necessary hardware and software;
become familiar with the process of
submitting performance test results
electronically through the EPA’s CEDRI;
test these new electronic submission
capabilities; reliably employ electronic
reporting; and convert logistics of
reporting processes to different timereporting parameters, shows that a time
period of a minimum of 90 days, and
more typically, 180 days, is generally
necessary to successfully complete these
changes. Our experience with similar
industries further shows that owners or
operators of this sort of regulated facility
generally requires a time period of 180
days to read and understand the
amended rule requirements; evaluate
their operations to ensure that they can
meet the standards during periods of
startup and shutdown as defined in the
rule, and make any necessary
adjustments; adjust parameter
monitoring and recording systems to
accommodate revisions; and update
their operations to reflect the revised
requirements. The EPA recognizes the
confusion that multiple compliance
dates for individual requirements would
create and the additional burden such
an assortment of dates would impose.
In the preamble to the proposed rule,
the EPA solicited comment on whether
the 180-day compliance period was
reasonable and specifically requested
sources provide information regarding
the specific actions they would need to
undertake to comply with the amended
rule. The EPA also noted that
information provided in response to this
request for comment could result in
changes to the proposed compliance
date (84 FR 49406, September 19, 2019).
Comments were provided suggesting
that 180 days was not enough time to
comply with the proposed changes and
that a minimum of 365 days was
needed. Commenters noted that tasks
that would need to be completed during
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
the compliance period were: Develop
site-specific implementation plan for
changes to add-on control device
requirements; review startup and
shutdown procedures; reprogram
electronic systems and automated
alarms consistent with the removal of
the SSM provisions; revise the oxidizer
temperature operating limit; rework
recordkeeping and reporting procedures
and systems to match the new CEDRI
form; develop and communicate
guidance to ensure consistent
implementation across a company’s
facilities; prepare permit applications;
acquire new permits; and develop and
provide training for facility staff on the
amended requirements.
The EPA reviewed the information
provided by commenters regarding tasks
needed to be completed during the
compliance period and agrees that 180
days is not sufficient time, particularly
for implementing the changes to add-on
control device requirements and for
reworking recordkeeping and reporting
procedures to comply with the
amendments, including the removal of
the SSM exemption. This source
category needs additional time for these
changes because of the complexity of
the compliance calculations and the
potential for a large variety of products
to be produced on the same equipment
(which requires multiple startup and
shutdown events on a regular basis).
From our assessment of the time frame
needed for compliance with the entirety
of the revised requirements and
considering the public comments
received, the EPA considers a period of
365 days to be the most expeditious
compliance period practicable for the
POWC source category, and, thus, the
EPA is finalizing that existing affected
sources must be in compliance with all
of the POWC NESHAP amended
requirements within 365 days of the
effective date.
Additionally, comments were
received from multiple commenters
requesting more time to develop and
train on the CEDRI semiannual
reporting template. The Agency agrees
with the commenters that more time is
needed to accurately develop the
template and to train facility staff on its
use. As such, the EPA is finalizing that
the electronic reporting template is not
required to be used for semiannual
reports until it has been available in
CEDRI for 1 year. To prevent two
separate reports for one semiannual
reporting period, the Agency is
finalizing that the reporting template
should be used for the first full
semiannual reporting period after the
template has been available in CEDRI
for 1 year. For example, if the template
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
becomes available in CEDRI on March
13, 2020, it would be used beginning
with the report submitted for the July
2021–December 2021 reporting period.
IV. What is the rationale for our final
decisions and amendments for the
POWC source category?
For each issue, this section provides
a description of what the EPA proposed
and what the EPA is finalizing for the
issue, a summary of key comments and
responses, and the EPA’s rationale for
the final decisions and amendments.
For all comments not discussed in this
preamble, comment summaries and the
EPA’s responses can be found in the

A. Residual Risk Review for the POWC
Source Category
1. What did we propose pursuant to
CAA section 112(f) for the POWC source
category?
A residual risk analysis was
conducted for the POWC source
category. Details of the risk analysis can
be found in section IV of the preamble
to the proposed rule (84 FR 49382,
September 19, 2019). The results of the
risk analyses, and decisions on risk
acceptability and ample margin of
safety, as well as the results of the
environmental risk screening
assessment, are summarized here.
For the POWC source category risk
assessment conducted prior to proposal,
the EPA estimated risks based on actual
and allowable emissions from POWC
surface coating operations. The risk
results for the POWC source category
indicate that both the actual and
allowable inhalation cancer risks to the
individual most exposed are at least 14
times below the presumptive limit of
acceptability of 100-in-1 million (i.e., 1in-10 thousand). The residual risk
assessment for the POWC source
category 3 estimated cancer incidence
rate at 0.005 cases per year based on
actual emissions. Approximately 4,300
people are exposed to a cancer risk
equal to or above 1-in-1 million from the
source category based upon actual
emissions from 11 facilities.
The maximum chronic noncancer
target organ-specific hazard index
(TOSHI) due to inhalation exposures is
less than 1 for actual and allowable
emissions. The results of the acute
screening analysis show that acute risks

are below a level of concern for the
source category considering the
conservative assumptions used that err
on the side of overestimating acute risk.
Multipathway screen values are below
a level of concern for both carcinogenic
and non-carcinogenic persistent and
bioaccumulative HAP as well as
emissions of lead compounds.
Maximum cancer and noncancer risks
due to ingestion exposures using healthprotective risk screening assumptions
are below the presumptive limit of
acceptability. The maximum estimated
excess cancer risk is below 1-in-1
million and the maximum noncancer
hazard quotient (HQ) for mercury is less
than 1 based upon the Tier 1 farmer/
fisher exposure scenario.
The risk assessment for the POWC
source category is contained in the
report titled Residual Risk Assessment
for the Paper and Other Web Coating
Source Category in Support of the 2020
Risk and Technology Review Final Rule,
which can be found in the docket for
this action (Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–
OAR–2018–0416).
2. How did the risk review change for
the POWC source category?
Neither the risk assessment nor the
Agency’s determinations regarding risk
acceptability, ample margin of safety, or
adverse environmental effects for the
POWC source category have changed
since the proposal was published on
September 19, 2019. Therefore, the EPA
is finalizing the risk review as proposed
with no changes (84 FR 49398,
September 19, 2019).
3. What key comments did we receive
on the risk review, and what are our
responses?
Comments were received regarding
the risk assessment inputs the EPA used
to conduct the POWC source category
risk assessment. First, commenters
noted that the acute emissions
multipliers should be less than the
value of 10 that the EPA used in its
source category acute risk assessment.
The EPA agrees with the commenters
that an acute hourly multiplier of 10
likely over-estimates the emissions for
this source category, however, we did
not reanalyze acute risk for this final
rulemaking because the risk values were
already deemed acceptable using the
multiplier of 10 for the proposal and
would have been further reduced with
a lower multiplier. Second, commenters
noted that the EPA’s risk assessment
was ‘‘very conservative and likely
overstates both annual and short-term
HAP emission rates’’ because it used
allowable emissions as actual emissions
where no other data were available. The
PO 00000
Frm 00007
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
41281
commenters are correct in their
assessment that the EPA used allowable
emissions as actual emissions when no
other data were available to ensure that
the risk analysis did not underestimate
the risk posed by the source category.
Because risk was acceptable using this
conservative approach and would have
been reduced further if actual emissions
data had been available, the results of
this approach further supports the
EPA’s conclusion.
Additionally, comments were
received regarding the risk assessment
methods the EPA used to conduct the
POWC source category risk assessment.
Two commenters stated that the
formaldehyde health value used in the
risk assessment was not based on the
best available science, and that the EPA
should have used the value from the
Chemical Industry Institute of
Technology (CIIT) biologically-based
dose-response model. We disagree with
the commenters that the EPA should
have used the CIIT formaldehyde value
because the EPA has a tiered prioritized
list of appropriate health benchmark
values for use in the residual risk
assessment, and in general, the
hierarchy places greater weight on the
EPA-derived health benchmarks than
those from other organizations. Even
though the commenters claim the
Integrated Risk Information System
(IRIS) value the EPA used was too high
(i.e., the value over-estimated risk), the
EPA proposed, and is finalizing, that the
risks from formaldehyde from this
source category are acceptable.
Comments were also received
supporting the EPA’s use of the 99th
percentile concentration for modeling
acute risk. Overall, the EPA received no
comments or new information
demonstrating a need for the Agency to
reanalyze risk for the final rulemaking,
and, therefore, the risk assessment
conducted for the proposed rule was
used to support the Agency’s
conclusions for the final rule.
Additionally, the EPA received
several comments supporting our
conclusions relating to risk acceptability
and that additional emissions
reductions are not necessary to provide
an ample margin of safety. One
commenter opposed our acceptability
determination because the EPA did not
consider risk from emission sources
from other source categories. The EPA
has the discretion to conduct a facilitywide risk assessment which factors in
emissions from process equipment
outside of the source category. The
Agency examines facility-wide risks to
provide additional context for the
source category risks. The development
of facility-wide risk estimates provides
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
41282
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
additional information about the
potential cumulative risks in the
vicinity of the source category emission
units as one means of informing
potential risk-based decisions about the
source category in question. The Agency
recognizes that, because these risk
estimates were derived from facilitywide emission estimates which have not
generally been subjected to the same
level of engineering review as the source
category emission estimates, they may
be less certain than our risk estimates
for the source category in question, but
they remain important for providing
context as long as their uncertainty is
taken into consideration in the process.

4. What is the rationale for our final
approach and final decisions for the risk
review?
As noted in our proposal, the EPA
sets standards under CAA section
112(f)(2) using ‘‘a two-step standardsetting approach, with an analytical first
step to determine an ‘acceptable risk’
that considers all health information,
including risk estimation uncertainty,
and includes a presumptive limit on
maximum individual risk (MIR) of
‘approximately 1-in-10 thousand’’’ (see
54 FR 38045, September 14, 1989). The
EPA weighs all health risk factors in our
risk acceptability determination,
including the cancer MIR, cancer
incidence, the maximum TOSHI, the
maximum acute noncancer HQ, the
extent of noncancer risks, the
distribution of cancer and noncancer
risks in the exposed population, and the
risk estimation uncertainties.
The EPA evaluated all of the
comments on the risk review and
determined that no changes to the
review are needed. For the reasons
explained in the proposal, the EPA
determined that the risks from the
POWC source category are acceptable,
and the current standards provide an
ample margin of safety to protect public
health and prevent an adverse
environmental effect. Therefore,
pursuant to CAA section 112(f)(2), the
EPA is finalizing the residual risk
review as proposed.

B. Technology Review for the POWC
Source Category
1. What did we propose pursuant to
CAA section 112(d)(6) for the POWC
source category?
Pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6),
the EPA proposed to conclude that no
revisions to the current MACT
standards for the POWC source category
are necessary (84 FR 49382, September
19, 2019). As described in section III.B
of the preamble to the proposed rule,
the technology review focused on
identifying developments in practices,
processes, and control technologies for
reduction of HAP emissions from POWC
facilities. In conducting the technology
review, the EPA searched for and
reviewed information on practices,
processes, and control technologies that
were not considered during the
development of the POWC NESHAP.
The review included a search of the
Reasonably Available Control
Technology/Best Available Control
Technology/Lowest Achievable
Emission Rate (RACT/BACT/LAER)
Clearinghouse database, reviews of title
V permits for POWC facilities, site visits
to facilities with POWC operations, and
a review of relevant literature. We did
not identify any developments in
practices, processes, or control
technologies that were widely
applicable to the industry and would
significantly reduce HAP emissions,
and, therefore, the EPA did not propose
any changes to the NESHAP based on
the technology review. For more details
on the technology review, see the
Technology Review Analysis for the
Paper and Other Web Coating Source
Category memorandum, in the docket
for this rulemaking (Docket ID Item No.
EPA–HQ–OAR–2018–0416–0086).
2. How did the technology review
change for the POWC source category?
No new information was received to
change the Agency’s conclusions with
respect to the technology review since
the proposal was published on
September 19, 2019. Therefore, the EPA
is finalizing the proposed determination
that no revisions to the NESHAP are
necessary pursuant to CAA section
112(d)(6).
3. What key comments did we receive
on the technology review, and what are
our responses?
The EPA received no comments that
identified improved control technology,
work practices, operational procedures,
process changes, or pollution
prevention approaches to reduce
emissions in the category since
promulgation of the current NESHAP.

Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final
approach for the technology review?
The technology review did not
identify any changes in practices,
processes, or control technologies that
would reduce emissions in this
category. The EPA did not identify any
control equipment not previously
identified; improvements to existing
controls; work practices, process
changes, or operational procedures not
previously considered; or any new
pollution prevention alternatives for
this source category. We evaluated all of
the comments on the technology review
and determined that no changes to the
review are needed, therefore, the EPA is
finalizing the determination that no
revisions to the NESHAP are necessary
pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6).
Additional details of our technology
review can be found in the
memorandum titled Technology Review
Analysis for the Paper and Other Web

C. Revisions to the SSM Provisions for
the POWC Source Category
1. What did we propose pursuant to
SSM provisions for the POWC source
category?
The EPA proposed amendments to the
POWC NESHAP to remove provisions
related to SSM that are not consistent
with the requirement that the standards
apply at all times. More information
concerning the elimination of SSM
provisions is in the preamble to the
proposed rule (84 FR 49399–49402,
September 19, 2019).
2. How did the revisions to the SSM
provisions change for the POWC source
category?
The EPA is finalizing the SSM
provisions as proposed with no changes.
3. What key comments did we receive
on the SSM provisions, and what are
our responses?
The EPA received several comments
related to the proposed removal of the
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
SSM provisions. One commenter
believed that the EPA is not required to
change the regulation to require sources
to meet the emission standards at all
times, including periods of SSM. The
EPA disagrees with the commenter’s
assertion. The EPA believes the Sierra
Club decision (Sierra Club v. EPA, 551
F.3d 1019) held that emission
limitations under CAA section 112 must
apply continuously and meet minimum
stringency requirements, even during
periods of SSM. Consistent with this
reading, the EPA proposed to remove
the SSM exemption, and is finalizing
the removal with this action. Other
commenters were generally supportive
of the SSM exemption removal and
noted that it would likely have minimal
impacts on regulated facilities. For
detailed comment summaries regarding
the removal of the SSM exemption and
the corresponding responses, see the
memorandum in the docket, National

The rationale for each of the
amendments the EPA is finalizing to
address SSM is in the preamble to the
proposed rule (84 FR 49399–49402,
September 19, 2019). After evaluation of
the comments received, the EPA’s
rationale for revisions to the SSM
provisions has not changed since
proposal and we are finalizing the
approach for removing the SSM
provisions as proposed.

D. Method for Determining Volatile
Organic Matter Retained in the Coated
Web
1. What did we propose?
A portion of the HAP in coatings
applied to paper and other web
substrates may be retained in the web
instead of being volatilized as air
emissions. The existing NESHAP allows
for the accounting of HAP retained in
the coated web in 40 CFR 63.3360(g),
but stakeholders indicated the
requirement to ‘‘develop a testing
protocol to determine the mass of
volatile matter retained . . . and submit
this protocol to the Administrator for
approval’’ was vague and unworkable.
As discussed in the preamble to the
proposed rule (84 FR 49402, September
19, 2019), to provide clarity and reduce
regulatory burden, the EPA proposed to
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:54 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
incorporate the utilization of an
emission factor to account for volatile
organic matter retained in the coated
web. As discussed in the preamble to
the proposed rule, the EPA proposed
new language to allow facilities to
account for retained volatile organics in
their compliance demonstration
calculations without requiring the
submittal of an alternative monitoring
request to the EPA under the provisions
of 40 CFR 63.8(f).
2. What changed since proposal?
Two changes have been made to the
proposed provisions for determining
volatile organic matter retained in the
coated web. First, the EPA has clarified
that ‘‘retained in the web’’ means
‘‘retained in the coated web or
otherwise not emitted.’’ Second, the
EPA has added additional flexibility to
allow any EPA-approved method,
manufacturer’s emissions test data, or
mass balance approach using modified
EPA Method 24 to be used to develop
the emission factor.
3. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
The EPA received comments from
four commenters supporting the
addition of the emission factor approach
for determining the amount of volatile
matter retained in the web. Commenters
suggested that the EPA clarify that
‘‘retained in the web’’ means ‘‘retained
in the coated web or otherwise not
emitted.’’ The EPA agrees that this is an
appropriate clarification and has revised
the regulatory text accordingly.
The EPA also received comments
suggesting that we allow other methods
for developing the emission factor to
determine the amount of volatile
organic matter retained. Commenters
specifically requested the ability to use
other EPA-approved test methods,
manufacturer’s emissions test data, or
mass-balance type approaches using
modified EPA Method 24. The EPA
agrees that allowing the use of these
methods would provide flexibility and
still appropriately characterize
emissions from the web coating process.

regarding the methods used to
determine the volatile organic matter
retained in the coated web and the
corresponding responses, see the

4. What is the rationale for our final
approach to determining volatile matter
retained in the coated web?
The EPA reviewed the public
comments and are finalizing the
proposed method of determining the
volatile organic material retained in the
coated web with two changes as a result
of public comment. The EPA is
clarifying that ‘‘retained in the web’’
means ‘‘retained in the coated web or
otherwise not emitted’’ in the regulatory
text and is allowing for additional test
methods for use in the development of
the emission factor. Both of these
changes provide regulatory clarity and
flexibility, but still appropriately
characterize emissions from the web
coating process. The amendments add
compliance flexibility and reduce
regulatory burden but do not alter the
emission standard. This approach
quantifies emissions in a way that is
representative of the actual emissions
from the coating operations instead of
assuming that all coating-HAP is
emitted.
E. Periodic Performance Testing
1. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed that facilities that
use non-recovery control devices (e.g.,
thermal and catalytic oxidizers) must
conduct periodic air emissions
performance testing, with the first of the
periodic performance tests to be
conducted within 3 years of the
effective date of the revised standards
and thereafter every 5 years following
the previous test. The EPA also
proposed that facilities using the
emission factor approach to account for
volatile matter retained in the web must
conduct periodic performance testing
every 5 years to re-establish the
emission factor.
2. What changed since proposal?
The periodic performance testing
requirements for catalytic oxidizers and
those for emission factor development
have changed since the September 2019
proposal in response to public
comment. For catalytic oxidizers,
commenters suggested that annual
catalyst activity testing would be more
indicative of oxidizer operation than 5year inlet/outlet emissions testing. The
EPA is therefore finalizing that catalytic
oxidizers may do an annual catalyst
activity test instead of the 5-year inlet/
outlet emissions testing. The EPA is
finalizing periodic performance testing
requirements for thermal oxidizers as
proposed (84 FR 49403, September 19,
2019). The EPA has clarified that the
testing is only required for add-on
control devices used to demonstrate

compliance with the POWC NESHAP.
The EPA is not finalizing the 5-year
requirement to re-establish emission
factors used in determining the amount
of volatile organics retained in the
coated web for 40 CFR 63.3360(g), but
is finalizing a requirement that periodic
performance testing be done if there is
a change in coating formulation,
operation conditions, or other change
that could reasonably result in increased
emissions since the time of the last test
used to establish the emission factor.
3. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Comments were received both
opposing and supporting the proposed
5-year periodic emissions testing
requirements. Commenters that opposed
the requirements noted that oxidizers
are not used continuously in the flexible
packaging industry but only when
compliant coatings are not used and
stated that testing does not show any
evidence of degradation in thermal
oxidizers. Commenters noted that
degradation may occur when a catalytic
oxidizer is used to control a process
using silicon-containing coatings, but
that a catalyst activity test would be
more appropriate to determine
performance. The EPA has reviewed
these comments and is finalizing repeat
emissions performance testing for
catalytic oxidizers with the alternative
to perform an annual catalyst activity
test. The EPA is finalizing the periodic
emissions performance test
requirements for thermal oxidizers, as
proposed. Both requirements can be
found in 40 CFR 63.3360(a)(2).
Commenters suggested that periodic
performance testing for re-establishment
of emission factors, such as for reactive
coatings, is not necessary in most cases
and would be excessively burdensome
and unnecessary, except if the product’s
formulation or its process conditions
have changed in a way that would
increase emissions. The EPA has
reviewed the commenters concerns and
agrees that repeat testing to re-establish
emission factors for coatings used in the
POWC industry every 5 years could be
burdensome and is not finalizing this
requirement in this action.
Commenters requested clarification
that the first periodic emissions
performance test can be conducted
within either 3 years of promulgation of
the final amendments or within 60
months of the previous test, whichever
is later, to ensure that any facility that
has recently conducted a performance
test will have the full 5 years between
tests. The EPA intended that
performance tests recently performed
(within 3 years of promulgation of the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:54 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
final amendments) can count towards
the first periodic testing requirements.
Commenters also requested clarification
if state-required volatile organic
compound (VOC) performance testing or
HAP performance testing performed for
another MACT can count towards this
requirement. The EPA agrees that both
testing for VOC destruction efficiency
and HAP destruction efficiency for
another subpart are appropriate
substitutions for the periodic testing
requirements in the POWC NESHAP
because these tests will demonstrate
ongoing performance of the control
device. Both of these issues have been
clarified in 40 CFR 63.3330(a)(2).
Commenters requested clarification
that only control devices used to
demonstrate compliance with the
POWC NESHAP would need to be
tested, and that VOC tests required by
the state permitting authority could be
used to meet the proposed
requirements. The EPA agrees with the
commenters that add-on control devices
not used to demonstrate compliance
with the POWC NESHAP (i.e., those
used to demonstrate compliance with
new source performance standards
(NSPS) or state VOC requirements) are
not required to be tested under the
POWC NESHAP amendments. The EPA
also agrees that VOC tests required by
the state permitting authority could be
used to meet the POWC repeat testing
requirements. The EPA’s proposal was
not intended to impose duplicative
testing requirements. Regulatory text
has been amended throughout the
NESHAP to state that the requirements
for add-on control devices are only for
those used to demonstrate compliance
with 40 CFR 63.3320, and that VOC
tests required by state permitting
authorities can be used to meet the
repeat performance testing
requirements.

Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final
approach and final decisions for the
periodic emissions testing requirement?
Although ongoing monitoring of
operating parameters is required by the
existing POWC NESHAP, as the control
device ages over time, the destruction
efficiency of the control device can be
PO 00000

compromised due to various factors.
These factors are discussed in more
detail in the memorandum titled
Revised Periodic Testing of Control
Devices Used to Comply with the Paper
and Other Web Coating NESHAP, in the
docket for this rulemaking (Docket ID
No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2018–0416). After
considering the comments discussed
above and based on the need for
vigilance in maintaining the control
device equipment, the EPA is finalizing
the requirement for periodic testing of
thermal oxidizers once every 5 years
and the alternative of annual catalyst
activity tests for catalytic oxidizers.
F. Electronic Reporting
1. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed amendments to the
POWC NESHAP to require owners and
operators of POWC facilities to submit
electronic copies of required
performance test reports (40 CFR
63.3400(f)), performance evaluation
reports (40 CFR 63.3400(g)), initial
notifications (40 CFR 63.3400(b)),
notification of compliance status (40
CFR 63.3400(e)), and semiannual
compliance reports (40 CFR 63.3400(c))
through the EPA’s Central Data
Exchange (CDX) using CEDRI. A
description of the electronic data
submission process is provided in the
proposal (at 84 FR 49403, September 19,
2019) and in the memorandum,
Electronic Reporting Requirements for
New Source Performance Standards
(NSPS) and National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) Rules, Docket ID Item No.
EPA–HQ–OAR–2018–0416–0091. The
proposed amendment replaces the
previous rule requirement to submit the
notifications and reports to the
Administrator at the appropriate
address listed in 40 CFR 63.13. This rule
requirement does not affect submittals
required by state air agencies as
required by 40 CFR 63.13.
For the performance test reports
required in 40 CFR 63.3400(f), the
amendments proposed required that
performance test results collected using
test methods that are supported by the
EPA’s Electronic Reporting Tool (ERT)
as listed on the ERT website 4 at the time
of the test be submitted in the format
generated through the use of the ERT
and that other performance test results
be submitted in portable document
format (PDF) using the attachment
module of the ERT. Similarly,
performance evaluation results of
continuous monitoring systems (CMS)

measuring relative accuracy test audit
pollutants that are supported by the ERT
at the time of the test must be submitted
in the format generated through the use
of the ERT and other performance
evaluation results be submitted in PDF
using the attachment module of the
ERT.
For the proposed electronic submittal
of initial notifications required in 40
CFR 63.3400(b), no specific form is
available at this time, therefore, these
notifications are required to be
submitted in PDF using the attachment
module of the ERT. For electronic
submittal of notifications of compliance
status reports required in 40 CFR
63.3400(e), it was proposed that the
final semiannual report template
discussed above, would also contain the
information required for the notification
of compliance status report.
For semiannual compliance reports
required in 40 CFR 63.3400(c), the
amendment proposed required that
owners and operators use the final
semiannual report template to submit
information to CEDRI. The template will
reside in CEDRI and was proposed to be
used on and after 180 days past
finalization of the amendments. The
proposed template for these reports was
included in the docket for public
comment.5
Additionally, in the proposal, the EPA
identified two broad circumstances in
which electronic reporting extensions
may be provided. In both circumstances,
the decision to accept the claim of
needing additional time to report is
within the discretion of the
Administrator, and reporting should
occur as soon as possible. The EPA
provided these potential extensions to
protect owners and operators from
noncompliance in cases where they
cannot successfully submit a report by
the reporting deadline for reasons
outside of their control.
2. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has changed the deadline to
use the CEDRI semiannual reporting
template to be 1 year after the template
has been available in CEDRI, instead of
the proposed 180 days after date of
publication of the final rule. The EPA
has also changed the electronic
submittal of the notification of
compliance status to be a PDF instead
in the semiannual reporting template.
No other changes have been made to the
proposed requirement for owners and
operators of POWC facilities to submit
initial notifications, performance test

reports, performance evaluation reports,
and semiannual reports electronically
using CEDRI.
3. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
The EPA received one comment
supporting the proposed amendment to
require electronic reporting. The
commenter, however, believed that the
proposed force majeure language in 40
CFR 63.3400(j) should be removed so
there is no exemption from reporting
due to force majeure events. As
explained in detail in the response-tocomments document, 40 CFR 63.3400(j)
does not provide an exemption to
reporting, only a method for requesting
an extension of the reporting deadline.
The EPA has retained the proposed
language in 40 CFR 63.3400(j) for the
final rule.
Commenters expressed concern about
potential inconsistencies between the
POWC electronic reporting
requirements and state requirements of
paper copies of reports for VOC and title
V compliance. Commenters asked for
clarification that the electronic reporting
requirements replace the POWC title V
compliance reporting, including timing.
The Agency does not agree with the
commenter’s suggestion concerning
potential inconsistencies between state
requirements for paper reporting and
federal requirements for VOC and title
V permit compliance. State
requirements developed under the
state’s own authorities are separate and
apart from federal requirements
developed for this rule. As individual
federal rules establish applicable
requirements—including electronic
reporting—title V programs bundle
those individual requirements, except
for adding appropriate periodic
monitoring when necessary, without
change. Therefore, title V and the
individual rule’s electronic reporting
requirements are the same.
Commenters also asked for
clarification that the transition to the
new reporting methodology would
apply to an entire reporting period
instead of becoming effective in the
middle of a reporting period, resulting
in two different reports being prepared.
The EPA’s intent was not to require two
different reports to be prepared for one
reporting period. The EPA has clarified
in this action that the reporting template
should be used at the beginning of the
first full reporting period after the
template has been available in CEDRI
for 1 year.
Commenters expressed concern
regarding the electronic reporting
template and asked for more time to
meet with the EPA to develop and
PO 00000
Frm 00011
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700

understand the spreadsheet.
Commenters also provided feedback on
the spreadsheet. The EPA agrees that
more time is needed to develop the
template and to work with stakeholders
to understand how to use the
spreadsheet. As such, the EPA is
changing the compliance date for using
the spreadsheet template to be 1 year
after the final template is available in
CEDRI. The EPA will work with
stakeholders to develop the spreadsheet
and to provide training on CEDRI and
how to complete the spreadsheet.
Because the EPA intends to work with
stakeholders to update the template in
the future, it has not placed an updated
version of the template in the docket for
this rulemaking.

Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final
approach and final decisions for the
electronic reporting requirement?
The EPA is finalizing, as proposed,
the requirement that owners or
operators of POWC facilities submit
electronic copies of initial notifications,
notifications of compliance status,
performance test reports, performance
evaluation reports, and semiannual
compliance reports using CEDRI. The
EPA is finalizing that the deadline to
use the CEDRI semiannual reporting
template is 1 year after the template has
been available in CEDRI. The EPA is
finalizing that the electronic submittal
of the notice of compliance status
should be in pdf form instead of the
semiannual reporting template. The
EPA is also finalizing, as proposed,
provisions that allow facility owners or
operators a process to request
extensions for submitting electronic
reports for circumstances beyond the
control of the facility (i.e., for a possible
outage in the CDX or CEDRI or for a
force majeure event). The amendments
will increase the usefulness of the data
contained in those reports; is in keeping
with current trends in data availability
and transparency; will further assist in
the protection of public health and the
environment; will improve compliance
by facilitating the ability of regulated
facilities to demonstrate compliance
with requirements and by facilitating
the ability of delegated state, local,
tribal, and territorial air agencies and

compliance; and will ultimately reduce
burden on regulated facilities, delegated

G. Temperature Sensor Validation
1. What did we propose?
As discussed in the preamble to the
proposed rule (84 FR 49382, September
19, 2019), at 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(9), the
original POWC NESHAP required
facilities to conduct an electronic
calibration of the temperature
monitoring device every 3 months or, if
calibration could not be performed,
replace the temperature sensor.
Facilities subject to the standard have
explained to the EPA that they are not
aware of a temperature sensor
manufacturer that provides procedures
or protocols for conducting electronic
calibration of temperature sensors.
Facilities have reported that because
they cannot calibrate their temperature
sensors, the alternative is to replace
them every 3 months. Industry
representatives explained that this is
burdensome and requested that an
alternative approach to the current
requirement in 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(9) be
considered.
The EPA proposed to modify 40 CFR
63.3350(e) to allow multiple alternative
approaches to temperature sensor
validation. The first alternative allows
the use of a National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST)
traceable temperature measurement
device or simulator to confirm the
accuracy of any temperature sensor
placed into use for at least one quarterly
period, where the accuracy of the
temperature measurement must be
within 2.5 percent of the temperature
measured by the NIST traceable device
or 5 degrees Fahrenheit, whichever is
greater. The second alternative allows
the temperature sensor manufacturer to
certify the electrical properties of the
temperature sensor. The third
alternative codifies the common
practice of replacing temperature
sensors quarterly. The fourth alternative
allows for the permanent installation of
a redundant temperature sensor as close
as practicable to the process
temperature sensor. The redundant
sensors must read within 25 degrees
Fahrenheit of each other for thermal and
catalytic oxidizers.

Jkt 250001
2. What changed since proposal?
Comments were received on the
temperature sensor validation
amendments requesting clarification on
the requirements. The EPA has clarified
the requirements, as discussed below, in
the final rulemaking.
3. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters identified
inconsistencies between 40 CFR 63.8
and the POWC NESHAP. Specifically,
the commenters noted that the proposed
amendments require ‘‘validation’’
whereas 40 CFR 63.8 requires
‘‘calibration.’’ The EPA proposed to
remove the term ‘‘calibration’’ from the
POWC NESHAP because temperature
sensors such as thermocouples do not
typically have calibration procedures.
To fix this inconsistency, the EPA is
finalizing changes to Table 2 for the 40
CFR 63.8(c)(3) entry to direct affected
sources to 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(iv) for
temperature sensor validation
procedures in lieu of calibration
requirements. Additionally, the EPA is
finalizing changes to Table 2 for the 40
CFR 63.8(d)(1)–(2) entry to direct
affected sources to 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(5)
for continuous parameter monitoring
system (CPMS) quality control
procedures and to the 40 CFR 63.8(d)(3)
entry to state that it does not apply,
because 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(5) specifies
the program of corrective action.
Commenters also questioned whether
Table 2 requires a notification of
performance evaluation for temperature
sensors under 40 CFR 63.8(e)(2). The
EPA is also finalizing changes to Table
2 to clarify notifications are not required
for temperature sensor validations.
Commenters provided background
information on thermocouple accuracy
and calibrations and requested that the
EPA adopt mechanical validations as an
option to verify temperature sensor
operation. These mechanical validations
include visually inspecting the head
and wiring of the device and monitoring
the function/non-function of the device.
Commenters explained that this type of
validation is appropriate because
thermocouples typically fail instead of
drifting and becoming less accurate. In
response to this comment, the EPA
added mechanical validations as an
option for verifying temperature sensor
operation in the final rule.
Similarly, commenters requested that
the requirement in 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(vi) for quarterly
inspection of all components for
integrity and all electrical connections
for continuity, oxidization, and galvanic
corrosion be removed. Commenters
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
noted that this requirement is redundant
because electronic monitoring systems
are designed to alert facility personnel
if a signal from the temperature sensor
is interrupted. The commenters
suggested that the EPA simplify the
requirement to include only a quarterly
inspection of thermocouple components
for proper connection and integrity and
clarify that any such inspection only
applies to the temperature sensor and
not the entire oxidation system. The
EPA did not intend to create redundant
burden with the proposed requirements.
The Agency agrees with the commenter
and is requiring in the final rule a
quarterly inspection of the
thermocouple components or to
continuously operate an electronic
monitoring system designed to notify
personnel if the temperature sensor
signal is interrupted at 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(vi).
Commenters supported the proposed
options for testing the accuracy of
temperature sensors and requested
clarification on whether the use of dualsensor thermocouples or the use of
multiple sensors in the oxidizer
combustion chamber would meet the
proposed requirements. The Agency has
added a new subsection to clarify that
these options would meet the finalized
requirements. Additionally, the EPA
reviewed the proposed temperature
sensor validation regulatory text and
determined that, as proposed, it was
vague and sometimes inconsistent. For
example, the proposed amendments
said to validate the temperature sensor
quarterly by following the applicable
procedures in the manufacturer’s
owner’s manual. The EPA received
additional information and found that
owner’s manuals specified annual
inspection procedures. Also as
proposed, facilities would need to
quarterly validate by permanently
installing a redundant temperature
sensor, which was vague and confusing
to affected sources. The EPA has
amended 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(iv) to
clarify each option for verifying that a
temperature sensor is operating properly
and how frequently to perform the
verification. The EPA is finalizing the
following verification options:
• Semiannually compare the
temperature sensor to a NIST traceable
temperature measurement device;
• annually validate the temperature
sensor by following applicable
mechanical and electrical validation
procedures in the manufacturer’s
owner’s manual;
• annually request the temperature
sensor manufacturer to certify or recertify electromotive force;
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
• annually replace the temperature
sensor with a new certified temperature
sensor;
• permanently install a redundant
temperature sensor as close as
practicable to the process temperature
sensor; or
• permanently install a temperature
sensor with dual sensors to account for
the possibility of failure.
One commenter requested that the
required accuracy of 2.5 percent at 40
CFR part 63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(A) apply
equally at 40 CFR part
63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(E) instead of 25
degrees Fahrenheit. The commenter was
not aware of any reason to specify
different levels of accuracy between the
proposed validation methods. With this
final action, the EPA has changed the 25
degrees Fahrenheit requirement in 40
CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(E) to be 2.5
percent to be consistent with the
requirements of 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(A).
Commenters also requested that the
requirement to calibrate the chart
recorder or data logger in section 40
CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(i) be removed
because it is not feasible to calibrate
either device, and most facilities now
use an electronic signal to record
temperature data for compliance
purposes, not a chart recorder. The EPA
agrees and has removed this statement
from the regulatory text.

4. What is the rationale for our final
approach and final decisions for the
temperature senor calibration
requirement?
The EPA proposed modifications to
40 CFR 63.3350(e) to allow multiple
alternative approaches to temperature
sensor calibration to address concerns
raised by affected facilities prior to
proposal. After reviewing the public
comments received, the Agency is
clarifying the requirements in this final
rulemaking, as discussed above. These
amendments ensure that the
temperature sensors are operating
properly to demonstrate continuous
compliance with the emission
standards.

H. Operating Parameter Clarification
1. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to clarify language
in 40 CFR 63.3370 which previously
implied all deviations in operating
parameters result in non-compliance
with the standard. Specifically, the EPA
proposed at 40 CFR 63.3370(k)(5) to
clarify that each 3-hour average
operating parameter that is outside of
the operating limit range established
during a performance test should be
assumed to have zero control and all
HAP must be assumed to be emitted for
that period in the monthly compliance
calculation.
2. What changed since proposal?
The EPA is finalizing the clarification
that a deviation from a 3-hour average
operating parameter is not a deviation of
the standard, unless the emission
limitations for the month in which the
deviation occurred are exceeded. Based
on public comment, the EPA has also
added the option in 40 CFR
63.3370(k)(5) for a facility to develop a
control destruction efficiency curve for
use in determining compliance instead
of assuming zero control for all
deviations. The EPA has also added
minor clarifications as discussed below.
3. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA’s
proposed clarification that deviations in
operating parameters are not
automatically indicative of noncompliance with the POWC standard.
Commenters also stated that a deviation
from a 3-hour operating limit does not
indicate non-compliance because the
standard is based on a monthly average.
The EPA agrees that the intent of the
clarification was for operating
parameters of add-on control devices
only, as the requirement was placed in
40 CFR 63.3370(k)(5) which only
applies to add-on control devices and
not coating lines using compliant
coatings.
Several commenters disagreed with
the EPA’s proposal that each 3-hour
average operating parameter that is
outside of the operating limit range
established during a performance test
should be assumed to have ‘‘zero
control.’’ Commenters asserted that
there was no scientific basis for this
assumption and indicated that if a
performance test performed well above
the minimum required destruction
efficiency, dropping below the
established temperature may have no
effect on the destruction efficiency.
Commenters recommended that the EPA
allow facilities to develop a control

Frm 00013
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
41287
curve based on test data or engineering
data that documents the level of control
achieved at temperatures lower than the
performance test established
temperature. The EPA has considered
the commenters’ suggestion and have
added the option to develop a control
curve for add-on control devices at 40
CFR 63.3360(e)(4). Facilities must work
with their permitting authority to
develop the control curve.

Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final
approach and final decisions for the
operating parameter clarification?
Operating parameters were
established in the original POWC
NESHAP to aid in determining
compliance, but operating parameters
were not intended to constitute a
violation of the emission standard. For
example, one 3-hour average
regenerative thermal oxidizer firebox
temperature below the setpoint
established during the stack test would
not necessarily indicate a violation of
the POWC emission standard for the
month, but it is a deviation of the
operating parameter limit. The EPA is
finalizing, as proposed, language to
clarify this distinction with minor
changes based on public comment.
I. IBR Under 1 CFR Part 51 for the
POWC NESHAP
1. What did we propose?
In accordance with requirements of 1
CFR 51.5, the EPA proposed to
incorporate by reference the following
voluntary consensus standards (VCS)

No changes to the proposed IBR were
made since publication of the proposal
(84 FR 49405, September 19, 2019).
3. What are the key comments and what

No comments were received on the
proposed IBR of the standards into 40

4. What is the rationale for our final
approach and final decisions for the IBR
under 1 CFR part 51?
In accordance with requirements of 1
CFR 51.5, the EPA is finalizing, as

J. Technical and Editorial Changes
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
1. Removal of OSHA-Defined
Carcinogens Reference
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to amend sections
40 CFR 63.3360(c)(1)(i) and (3), which
describe how to demonstrate initial
compliance with the emission
limitations using the compliant material
option, to remove references to OSHAdefined carcinogens as specified in 29
CFR 1910.1200(d)(4). The reference to
OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified
in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) is intended to
specify which compounds must be
included in calculating total organic
HAP content of a coating material if
they are present at 0.1 percent or greater
by mass. The Agency proposed to
remove this reference because 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) has been amended and
no longer readily defines which
compounds are carcinogens. The EPA
proposed to replace the references to
OSHA-defined carcinogens and 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) with a list (in proposed
new Table 3 to Subpart JJJJ of Part 63—
List of Hazardous Air Pollutants That
Must Be Counted Relative to
Determining Coating HAP Content if
Present at 0.1 Percent or More By Mass)
of those organic HAP that must be
included in calculating total organic

HAP content of a coating material if
they are present at 0.1 percent or greater
by mass.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has changed the approach
for the removal of the reference to 29
CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) based on public
comment. The EPA is not finalizing the
proposed Table 3 to 40 CFR part 63,
subpart JJJJ, and is finalizing a reference
to appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.1200
where 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) was
previously referenced.
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Multiple commenters asked that the
EPA delete the proposed Table 3 to 40
CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ, and modify the
proposed methodology for determining
the HAP content of coatings.
Commenters pointed out that 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) was not a list, but a list
of references for manufacturers and
importers to use to classify chemicals.
Commenters asked that the POWC
NESHAP reference the current OSHA
Safety Data Sheets (SDS) rule (29 CFR
1910.1200) instead of adding a static list
in the form of the proposed Table 3 to
40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ. The EPA
agrees the commenters’ suggestion is a
more-streamlined solution for updating
the OSHA reference and is not finalizing
the table in the final rule and has added
the reference to appendix A to 29 CFR
1910.1200.
For detailed comment summaries
regarding the OSHA-defined
carcinogens reference and the
corresponding responses, see the
memorandum in the docket, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants: Paper and Other Web

Comments on September 19, 2019
Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
The EPA has reviewed the comments
received regarding the removal of the
OSHA-defined carcinogens language
and agrees that appendix A to 29 CFR
1910.1200 is an appropriate
replacement for the outdated 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) reference. Given that
the OSHA language that the POWC
proposal sought to replace is in
appendix A, for the final POWC
amendment the EPA is finalizing the
regulatory text at 40 CFR 63.3360(c)(1)(i)
to be as follows:
(i) Include each organic HAP
determined to be present at greater than
or equal to 0.1 mass percent for

greater than or equal to 1.0 mass
percent for other organic HAP
compounds.
2. Clarification of Compliance
Demonstration Options
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed an introductory
paragraph and a new subsection to
clarify the compliance demonstration
requirements in 40 CFR 63.3370. As
originally promulgated, it was not clear
that compliance can be demonstrated
based on individual web coating lines,
groups of web coating lines, or all of the
web coating lines located at an affected
facility. An introductory paragraph to 40
CFR 63.3370 was proposed to clarify the
intent that compliance can be
demonstrated across the web coating
lines in a facility by grouping them or
treating them individually or a
combination of both. Additionally, a
new subsection 40 CFR 63.3370(r) was
proposed to clarify that compliance
with the subpart can be demonstrated
using a mass-balance approach. While
the compliance calculations included in
40 CFR 63.3370(b)–(p) are thorough,
there are instances where variables in
the equations are not needed, resulting
in confusion by the regulated facilities
and the regulating agencies as to what
is required to demonstrate compliance.
The mass-balance approach proposed in
40 CFR 63.3370(r) clarifies the original
intent of the rule.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA received comments
suggesting minor edits to the proposed
language regarding the mass-balance
compliance demonstration approach
and has incorporated these edits, as
appropriate, as discussed below. No
changes were made to the introductory
paragraph to 40 CFR 63.3370 and the
EPA is finalizing this section, as
proposed, in this action.
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters expressed support for
the proposed clarification that
compliance can be demonstrated across
multiple lines. Commenters also felt
that this clarification reduces the
potential for inconsistent regulatory
interpretations by sources and
permitting agencies and makes the
POWC NESHAP consistent with other
coating rules. The EPA acknowledges
the commenters’ support and is
finalizing the clarification, as proposed.
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
Commenters noted that the EPA
incorrectly stated procedures for
demonstrating compliance by massbalance at 40 CFR 63.3370(r)(1)—the
mass of HAP emitted during the month
should be divided by the mass applied
according to any of the procedures
listed in 40 CFR 63.3320(b)(1)–(3).
Commenters also suggested additional
regulatory text revisions to be consistent
with proposed edits to other sections.
The EPA has reviewed these comments
and agrees with the commenters
suggested edits to correct the massbalance calculation and has done so in
this rulemaking.
For detailed comment summaries
regarding the clarification of the
compliance demonstration options and
the corresponding responses, see the

are our responses?
subpart and not 40 CFR part 63, subpart
OOOO.
Commenters supported the EPA’s
proposed clarifications to the definition
of coating materials and further
suggested that the EPA revise the
definition to ensure that it is not
incorrectly interpreted to exclude hot
melt adhesives or coatings. The EPA
agrees with the commenters and hot
melt materials are included in the
revised regulatory text in 40 CFR
63.3310 to reflect this.
For detailed comment summaries
regarding the coating materials
definition and the corresponding
responses, see the memorandum in the

Comments on September 19, 2019
Proposal.
b. What changed since proposal?
Since proposal, the EPA has clarified
that the predominant activity should be
determined on a calendar year basis.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
The EPA is finalizing, as proposed,
revisions to the coating material
definition in 40 CFR 63.3310 to clarify
that coating materials are liquid or semiliquid materials and revisions to the
web coating line definition to clarify
that coating materials are liquid or semiliquid. The EPA is also finalizing the
clarification that hot melt materials are
included in the definition and that
vapor deposition and dry abrasive
materials deposited onto a coated
surface area are excluded from the
definition. These revisions will improve
regulatory clarity by confirming that the
weight of solid materials should not be
accounted for in the compliance
demonstration calculations, and that
vapor-deposition coating is not covered
by this subpart.
The EPA proposed, and is finalizing,
amendments to the regulatory text to
clarify that compliance can be
demonstrated based on individual web
coating lines, groups of web coating
lines, or all of the web coating lines
located at an affected facility. The EPA
is finalizing corrections to the mass
balance calculation. Additionally, the
EPA proposed, and is finalizing, a new
subsection in 40 CFR 63.3370(r) to
clarify the intent of the rule as a massbalance approach of demonstrating
compliance. The clarification to the
compliance demonstration options were
made to help reduce confusion among
regulated entities and regulating
authorities.
3. Clarification of Coating Materials
Definition
The EPA proposed to revise the
coating material definition in 40 CFR
63.3310 to clarify that coating materials
are liquid or semi-liquid materials.
Additionally, the EPA proposed to
revise the web coating line definition to
clarify that coating materials are liquid
or semi-liquid.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has clarified in the
definition of coating materials to
include hot melt adhesives and other
hot melt materials.

a. What did we propose?
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2

The EPA proposed to add a usage
threshold to 40 CFR 63.3300(h), similar
to that in 40 CFR part 63, subpart
OOOO, that requires a web coating line
that coats both paper and another
substrate, such as fabric, to comply with
the subpart that corresponds to the
predominate activity conducted. The
EPA proposed to define predominant
activity to be 90 percent of the mass of
substrate coated during the compliance
period. For example, a web coating line
that coats 90 percent or more of a paper
substrate, and 10 percent or less of a
fabric substrate, would be subject to this

Sfmt 4700
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters supported usage
thresholds for converting lines that coat
both paper and another substrate.
Commenters noted that the usage of the
term ‘‘affected source’’ in the proposal
appears to be inconsistent with the
example because the POWC NESHAP is
the collection of all web coating lines.
Additionally, commenters thought the
term compliance period could be
interpreted to require a facility
performing different types of coating to
determine which NESHAP applies on a
monthly basis. Commenters requested
that the EPA clarify these issues. The
EPA agrees with the commenters and
have edited the regulatory text to clarify
that predominant activity must be
determined on a calendar year basis.
For detailed comment summaries
regarding the web coating line threshold
and the corresponding responses, see
the memorandum in the docket,

Amendments—Response to Public
Comments on September 19, 2019
Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
The EPA reviewed the public
comments and added clarifying
language to the proposed usage
threshold. This language was added to
promote regulatory certainty and reduce
burden from sources that could be
subject to multiple NESHAP.
5. Addition of Printing Activity
Exemption
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to add a printing
activity exemption to 40 CFR 63.3300(i)
which allows for modified web coating
lines already subject to this subpart to
continue to demonstrate compliance
with this subpart, in lieu of
demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR
part 63, subpart KK (Printing and
Publishing NESHAP).
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has clarified the language in
the printing activity exemption to allow
for existing and modified lines to be

41290
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations

40 CFR part 63, subpart KK.
this subpart, which test for total HAP
concentration.
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA is finalizing the removal of
‘‘by compound’’ in 40 CFR 63.3220(b)(4)
to clarify that the 20 ppmv standard
applies to the total of organic HAP
emitted, not to each individual HAP. As
part of our review, the EPA found four
additional instances of ‘‘by compound’’
in 40 CFR 63.3370(a)(5), (f), (f)(3), and
(f)(3)(iii) that also needed to be
removed.
Multiple commenters supported the
EPA’s proposed printing activity
exemption to allow for modified POWC
lines already subject to the POWC
NESHAP to continue to demonstrate
compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart JJJJ in lieu of demonstrating
compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart KK. Commenters suggested that
this exemption also apply to existing
sources as well as modified sources
(e.g., for POWC web coating lines that
already have a product and packaging
rotogravure print station and/or a wideweb flexographic print station). The
commenter noted that, as written, if
during a single month the line exceeds
5 percent of the total mass of materials
applied at the print station, the line
applicability would permanently change
to the Printing and Publishing NESHAP.
The EPA agrees with the commenters
and has clarified the regulatory text in
this action, as appropriate.
For detailed comment summaries
regarding the printing activity
exemption and the corresponding
responses, see the memorandum in the
docket, National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and
Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63,
Subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final
Amendments—Response to Public
Comments on September 19, 2019
Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
In this rulemaking, the EPA is
finalizing a printing activity exemption
to 40 CFR 63.3300(i) which allows for
modified and existing web coating lines
already subject to this subpart to
continue to demonstrate compliance
with this subpart, in lieu of
demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR
part 63, subpart KK (i.e., the Printing
and Publishing NESHAP). This
exemption will reduce regulatory
burden without resulting in increased
emissions.
6. Clarification of Testing Requirements
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to remove the ‘‘by
compound’’ statement in 40 CFR
63.3320(b)(4) to clarify that the standard
is 20 parts per million by volume
(ppmv) for the total of organic HAP
emitted, not 20 ppmv for each
individual HAP emitted. This is
consistent with the test methods used in
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:54 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA’s
proposal to remove ‘‘by compound’’ in
40 CFR 63.3220(b)(4) to clarify that the
20 ppmv standard applies to the total of
organic HAP emitted, not to each
individual HAP.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
The removal of ‘‘by compound’’
makes the POWC NESHAP consistent
with the test methods referenced in the
subpart, as they test for total HAP
concentration, not individual HAP
compounds.
7. Applicability to Sources Using Only
Non-HAP Coatings
a. What did we propose?
The EPA requested comment on
changing the applicability of the POWC
NESHAP to exclude sources that only
use non-HAP coatings but are located at
a major source to reduce regulatory
burden. As identified during the
development of the risk modeling input
file and discussed in section III.C of the
preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR
49406, September 19, 2019), some
facilities that utilize only non-HAP
coatings are subject to the POWC
NESHAP because they perform web
coating operations and are a major
source because of non-POWC source
category emissions. For example, a nonHAP coating line used to produce paper
towel cores may be located at an
integrated pulp and paper facility that is
a major source because of emissions
from the pulping operations. This
facility would be required to comply
with the requirements of 40 CFR part
63, subpart JJJJ, even though the
coatings used contain no HAP, and,
therefore, no HAP are emitted from the
web coating lines.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA received supportive
comments regarding the change of
applicability to sources using only nonHAP coatings. The Agency has reviewed
PO 00000
Frm 00016
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
the public comments and, instead of
changing the applicability of the
subpart, is finalizing an exemption for
reporting requirements for these
sources.
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA’s
proposal to reduce regulatory burden by
excluding sources that are located at a
major source of HAP but do not use
coatings that contain HAP for the POWC
emission sources. Commenters stated
that the change will reduce regulatory
burden without increasing emissions
and could incentivize sources to convert
to non-HAP coatings to avoid
applicability of the POWC NESHAP,
resulting in emissions reductions.
Commenters further suggested that the
exclusion is a logical step under the
EPA’s efforts to reduce regulatory
burden and is similar in key aspects to
the rulemaking to rescind the EPA’s
‘‘once in, always in’’ policy.
Commenters suggested that the EPA
clarify that all of the subject coating
lines at the facility must use non-HAP
coatings to qualify for the exclusion.
The EPA has reviewed these comments
and has added regulatory text
exempting sources that only use nonHAP coatings on all of the subject web
coating lines at the facility from ongoing compliance reporting
requirements.
For detailed comment summaries
regarding applicability to sources only
using non-HAP coatings and the
corresponding responses, see the
memorandum in the docket, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants: Paper and Other Web
Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ)
Residual Risk and Technology Review,
Final Amendments—Response to Public
Comments on September 19, 2019
Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
The EPA requested comment on
changing the applicability of sources
using only non-HAP coatings and
received comments supporting the
change. The EPA is finalizing an
exemption to on-going reporting
requirements for these sources as it will
reduce regulatory burden without
increasing emissions.
8. Oxidizer Temperature Monitoring
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to add language to
recognize that thermal oxidizers can
demonstrate compliance with the
standard as long as the 3-hour average
firebox temperature does not drop lower
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
than 50 degrees Fahrenheit below the
average combustion temperature
established during the performance test
to promote consistency between the
Pressure Sensitive Tape and Label
Surface Coating Operations NSPS (40
CFR part 60, subpart RR) and the POWC
NESHAP, as well as to account for
temperature swings due to startup and/
or shutdown of web coating lines.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has made minor
clarifications to the regulatory text to
promote consistency throughout the
subpart and has added similar language
for catalytic oxidizers.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters were supportive of the
EPA’s proposed language for thermal
oxidizers and requested that it be
included for catalytic oxidizers as well.
Additionally, commenters noted that
the Pressure Sensitive Tape and Label
Surface Coating Operations NSPS
allows for setting the minimum
temperature drop across the catalyst bed
at 80 percent of the average temperature
difference during the most recent
performance test and requested that this
language be added to promote
consistency between the two rules. The
Agency has reviewed the commenters
suggestions and agree that it is
appropriate to add the temperature
language for catalytic oxidizers. To
ensure complete combustion, the EPA
also added a requirement that the
catalyst’s minimum temperature must
always be 50 degrees Fahrenheit above
the catalyst’s ignition temperature.
Commenters also suggested edits to
promote consistency throughout the
subpart as it relates to the temperature
language. The EPA has reviewed these
suggestions and made edits to the
regulatory text in this action, as
appropriate.

approach?

demonstrate compliance with the
standard as long as the 3-hour average

firebox temperature does not drop lower
than 50 degrees Fahrenheit below the
average combustion temperature
established during the performance test
to promote consistency between the
Pressure Sensitive Tape and Label
Surface Coating Operations NSPS and
the POWC NESHAP, as well as to
account for temperature swings due to
startup and/or shutdown of web coating
lines. After reviewing the public
comments, the EPA has added the same
requirements to catalytic oxidizers. In
addition, the EPA has added language
similar to that in the Pressure Sensitive
Tape and Label Surface Coating
Operations NSPS to allow for setting the
minimum temperature drop across the
catalyst bed at 80 percent of the average
temperature difference during the most
recent performance test. To ensure
complete combustion, the EPA also
added a requirement that the catalyst’s
minimum temperature must always be
50 degrees Fahrenheit above the
catalyst’s ignition temperature.
9. Compliance Report Content
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed new reporting
requirements at 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)
that would require facilities to record
data for failures to meet an applicable
standard, estimate the quantity of each
regulated pollutant over any emission
limit and a description of the method
used, and document any actions taken
to minimize emissions.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has revised the compliance
report content requirements in 40 CFR
63.3400(c)(2) to clarify what should be
reported.
c. What are the key comments and what
are our responses?
Commenters noted that the new
reporting requirements should be
eliminated because they go beyond the
General Provisions at 40 CFR 63.10 and,
because compliance is determined
monthly, short deviations are not likely
to cause excess emissions. Commenters
further noted that the proposed
additions are not relevant to a rule
where compliance is not demonstrated
on a short-term basis. The EPA has
reviewed the commenters concerns and
agree that the language is not
appropriate for 40 CFR part 63, subpart
JJJJ. The EPA has revised the
requirements in 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2) to
clarify what is required to be reported
and has also revised the requirements in
40 CFR 63.3410(c) to clarify what
records should be maintained.
Additionally, while the EPA was
reviewing the report content
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
41291
requirements, it became clear that the
requirements were confusing as to what
should be reported for facilities using
compliant coatings versus facilities
using add-on controls. The EPA has
clarified that 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)(v)
applies to facilities using only
compliant coatings (i.e., those that do
not use a CMS). The EPA also clarified
that 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)(vi) applies to
facilities that have add-on control
devices (i.e., those that use a CPMS or
a continuous emission monitoring
system). These amendments should
improve regulatory clarity.

Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final
approach?
The EPA proposed new reporting
requirements at 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)
that would require facilities to record
data for failures to meet an applicable
standard, estimate the quantity of each
regulated pollutant over any emission
limit and a description of the method
used, and document any actions taken
to minimize emissions to be consistent
with recent RTR rulemakings. After
reviewing the comments received
during the public comment period, as
well as the regulatory language, it was
determined that these requirements
were not appropriate for 40 CFR part 63,
subpart JJJJ because compliance is
demonstrated on a monthly basis and
therefore these requirements are not
being finalized. In response to
comments, amendments were added to
the compliance report contents section
to clarify what should be reported and
by whom.
10. Other Amendments
The following additional changes
were proposed that address technical
and editorial corrections:
• Revised the references to the other
NESHAP in 40 CFR 63.3300 to clarify
the appropriate subparts;
• revised 40 CFR 3350(c) to clarify
that bypass valves on always-controlled
work stations should be monitored;
• revised 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(4) to
clarify 3-hour averages should be block
averages, consistent with the
requirements in Table 1 to Subpart JJJJ
of Part 63;
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
41292
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
• revised the monitoring
requirements section in 40 CFR 63.3360
to clarify what constitutes
representative conditions;
• revised the recordkeeping
requirements section in 40 CFR 63.3410
to include the requirement to show
continuous compliance after effective
date of regulation;
• revised the terminology in the
delegation of authority section in 40
CFR 63.3420 to match the definitions in
40 CFR 63.90;
• revised the General Provisions
applicability table (Table 2 to Subpart
JJJJ of Part 63) to provide more detail
and to make it align with those sections
of the General Provisions that have been
amended or reserved over time; and
• renumbered the equations
throughout the subpart for regulatory
clarity.
No comments were received on these
other amendments and, therefore, the
EPA is finalizing them as proposed.
V. Summary of Cost, Environmental,
and Economic Impacts and Additional
Analyses Conducted
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
A. What are the affected facilities?
The POWC source category includes
any facility that is located at a major
source and is engaged in the coating of
paper, plastic film, metallic foil, and
other web surfaces. All the coating lines
at a subject facility are defined as one
affected source. Any new source means
any affected source for which
construction or reconstruction was
commenced after the date the EPA first
proposed regulations establishing a
NESHAP applicable to the source (i.e.,
for the POWC source category,
September 13, 2000). An existing source
means any source other than a new
source. Generally, an additional line at
an existing facility is considered part of
the existing affected source. New
affected sources are new lines installed
at new facilities or at a facility with no
prior POWC operations.
There are currently 168 facilities in
the United States that are subject to the
POWC NESHAP. The EPA is aware of
one new affected source that is under
construction that will be subject to the
POWC NESHAP in the future. The EPA
is not aware of any other facilities that
are under construction or are planned to
be constructed which would be
considered ‘‘new facilities’’ under the
POWC NESHAP.
B. What are the air quality impacts?
At the current level of control,
estimated emissions of total HAP are
approximately 3,870 tpy. Compared to
pre-MACT levels, this represents a
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:54 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
significant reduction of HAP for the
category. When the POWC NESHAP was
finalized in 2002, the EPA estimated the
annual baseline HAP emissions from the
source category to be approximately
42,000 tpy (67 FR 72331, December 4,
2002).
The amendments will require all 168
major sources with equipment subject to
the POWC NESHAP to operate without
the SSM exemption. Eliminating the
SSM exemption will reduce emissions
by requiring facilities to meet the
applicable standard during SSM
periods; however, the EPA is unable to
quantify the specific emission
reductions associated with eliminating
the exemption. The requirement for
repeat performance testing once every 5
years for thermal oxidizers and the
alternative of annual catalyst activity
testing for catalytic oxidizers will
ensure that the control device is
operating correctly and may reduce
emissions, but no method for accurately
estimating such emissions reduction is
available.
Indirect or secondary air emissions
impacts are impacts that would result
from the increased electricity usage
associated with the operation of control
devices (i.e., increased secondary
emissions of criteria pollutants from
power plants). Energy impacts consist of
the electricity and steam needed to
operate control devices and other
equipment that would be required
under this final rule. The EPA expects
no secondary air emissions impacts or
energy impacts from this rulemaking.
For further information, see the
memorandum titled Revised Cost,
Environmental, and Energy Impacts of
Regulatory Options for the Paper and
Other Web Coatings Risk and
Technology Review, in the docket for
this action (Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–
OAR–2018–0416).
C. What are the cost impacts?
Startup and shutdown are considered
normal operations for most facilities
subject to the POWC NESHAP. The EPA
does not believe removing the SSM
exemption will result in additional
incurred costs.
As discussed in detail in the
memorandum titled Revised Cost,
Environmental, and Energy Impacts of
Regulatory Options for the Paper and
Other Web Coatings Risk and
Technology Review, it is estimated that
65 oxidizers will have to perform repeat
performance testing. Fifty eight of these
65 are thermal oxidizers, and 3 are
catalytic oxidizers. For costing
purposes, it was assumed that repeat
emissions performance testing will be
performed every 5 years on the thermal
PO 00000
Frm 00018
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
oxidizers, and annual catalyst activity
testing will be conducted on the
catalytic oxidizers. The estimated cost
for an inlet-outlet EPA Method 25A
performance test (with electronic
reporting of results) is $28,000 per test
and the estimated cost for annual
catalyst activity testing is $1,000, for an
estimated nationwide cost of $1,750,000
(2018$) every 5 years. The electronic
reporting requirement is not expected to
require any additional labor hours to
prepare, compared to the paper semiannual compliance reports that are
already prepared. Therefore, the costs
associated with the electronic reporting
requirement are zero.
D. What are the economic impacts?
The economic impact analysis is
designed to inform decision makers
about the potential economic
consequences of a regulatory action. To
assess the potential impact, the largest
cost expected to be experienced in any
one year is compared to the total sales
for the ultimate owner of the affected
facilities to estimate the total burden for
each facility.
For the final revisions to the POWC
NESHAP, the 168 affected facilities are
owned by 91 different parent
companies, and the total costs
associated with the final requirements
range from less than 0.000001 to 3
percent of annual sales revenue per
ultimate owner. These costs are not
expected to result in a significant
market impact, regardless of whether
they are passed on to the purchaser or
absorbed by the firms.
The EPA also prepared a small
business screening assessment to
determine whether any of the identified
affected entities are small entities, as
defined by the U.S. Small Business
Administration. Twenty-nine of the
facilities potentially affected by the final
revisions to the POWC NESHAP are
small entities. However, the costs
associated with the final requirements
for the affected small entities range from
0.0003 to 3 percent of annual sales
revenues per ultimate owner; there is
one facility with costs of 1.4 percent and
one facility with costs of 3 percent of
annual sales revenues per ultimate
owner. Therefore, there are no
significant economic impacts on a
substantial number of small entities
from these final amendments.
E. What are the benefits?
Because these final amendments are
not considered economically significant,
as defined by Executive Order 12866,
and because we did not estimate
emission reductions associated with the
E:\FR\FM\09JYR2.SGM
09JYR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
final revisions, the EPA did not estimate
any benefits from reducing emissions.

F. What analysis of environmental
justice did we conduct?
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629,
February 16, 1994) establishes federal
executive policy on environmental
justice. Its main provision directs
federal agencies, to the greatest extent
practicable and permitted by law, to
make environmental justice part of their
mission by identifying and addressing,
as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or
environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority
populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
To examine the potential for any
environmental justice issues that might
be associated with the source category,
the EPA performed a demographic
analysis, which is an assessment of risk
to individual demographic groups of the
populations living within 5 kilometers
(km) and within 50 km of the facilities.
In the analysis, the EPA evaluated the
distribution of HAP-related cancer and
noncancer risk from the POWC source
category across different social,
demographic, and economic groups
within the populations living near
facilities identified as having the highest
risks.6 The methodology and the results
of the demographic analysis are
presented in a technical report, Risk and
Technology Review—Analysis of
Demographic Factors for Populations
Living Near Paper and Other Web
Coating Facilities, available in the
docket for this action (Docket ID Item
No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2018–0416–0088).
These results, for various demographic
groups, are based on the estimated risk
from actual emissions levels for the
population living within 50 km of the
facilities.
The results of the POWC source
category demographic analysis indicate
that emissions from the source category
expose approximately 4,300 people to a
cancer risk at or above 1-in-1 million
and no one is exposed to a chronic
noncancer TOSHI greater than 1. The
specific demographic results indicate
that the percentage of the population
potentially impacted by emissions is
greater than its corresponding national
percentage for the white population (86
percent for the source category
6 Demographic
groups included in the analysis
are: White, African American, Native American,
other races and multiracial, Hispanic or Latino,
children 17 years of age and under, adults 18 to 64
years of age, adults 65 years of age and over, adults
without a high school diploma, people living below
the poverty level, people living 2 times the poverty
level, and linguistically isolated people.

Jkt 250001
compared to 62 percent nationwide) and
for the below-poverty-level population
(17 percent compared to 14 percent
nationwide).
The risks due to HAP emissions from
this source category are low for all
populations. Furthermore, the EPA does
not expect this final rule to achieve
significant reductions in HAP
emissions. Therefore, the EPA
concludes that this final rule will not
have disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income
populations because it does not affect
the level of protection provided to
human health or the environment.
However, this final rule will provide
additional benefits to these
demographic groups by improving the
monitoring, compliance, and
implementation of the NESHAP.
G. What analysis of children’s
environmental health did we conduct?
The EPA does not believe the
environmental health or safety risks
addressed by this action present a
disproportionate risk to children. The
results of the POWC source category
demographic analysis indicate that
emissions from the source category
expose approximately 4,300 people to a
cancer risk at or above 1-in-1 million
and no one is exposed to a chronic
noncancer TOSHI greater than 1. The
distribution of the population with risks
above 1-in-1 million is 20 percent for
ages 0 to 17, 62 percent for ages 18 to
64, and 17 percent for ages 65 and up.
Children ages 0 to 17 constitute 23
percent of the population nationwide.
Therefore, the analysis shows that
actual emissions from 40 CFR part 63,
subpart JJJJ facilities have a slightly
smaller impact on children ages 0 to 17.
This action’s health and risk
assessments are contained in sections III
and IV of the preamble to the proposed
rule and further documented in the risk
report titled Residual Risk Assessment
for the Paper and Other Web Source
Category in Support of the 2020 Risk

J. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act (NTTAA) and 1 CFR
Part 51
This action involves technical
standards. The EPA is finalizing the
following six VCS as alternatives to EPA
Method 24 and is incorporating them by
reference for the first time in the
finalized amendments:
• ASTM D2369–10 (Reapproved
2015)e, ‘‘Standard Test Method for
Volatile Content of Coatings.’’ This test
method describes a procedure used for
the determination of the weight percent
volatile content of solvent-borne and
waterborne coatings.
• ASTM D2697–03 (Reapproved
2014), ‘‘Standard Test Method for
Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or
Pigmented Coatings.’’ This test method
is applicable to the determination of the
volume of nonvolatile matter in
coatings.
• ASTM D3960–98, ‘‘Standard
Practice for Determining Volatile
Organic Compound (VOC) Content of
Paints and Related Coatings.’’ This test
method is used for the measurement of
the VOC content of solvent borne and
waterborne paints and related coatings.
This method is an acceptable alternative
to EPA Method 24 because the
regulation allows for the use of VOC
content as a surrogate for HAP.
• ASTM D6093–97 (Reapproved
2016), ‘‘Standard Test Method for
Percent Volume Nonvolatile Matter in
Clear or Pigmented Coatings Using a
Helium Gas Pycnometer.’’ This test
method is used for the determination of
the percent volume nonvolatile matter
in clear and pigmented coatings.
• ASTM D2111–10 (Reapproved
2015), ‘‘Standard Test Methods for
Specific Gravity of Halogenated Organic
Solvents and Their Admixtures.’’ This
test method is used for the
PO 00000
Frm 00020
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
determination of the specific gravity of
halogenated organic solvents and
solvent admixtures.
• ASTM D1963–85 (Reapproved
1996), ‘‘Standard Test Method for
Specific Gravity of Drying Oils,
Varnishes, Resins, and Related Materials
at 25° C.’’ This test method is used for
the determination of the specific gravity
of drying oils, varnishes, alkyd resins,
fatty acids, and related materials. This
method is an acceptable alternative to
EPA Method 24 for density only and
may not be valid for all coatings and is
valid at the designated temperature (25
degrees Celsius). This standard was
withdrawn in 2004 with no
replacement; there is no later version.
These standards are reasonably
available from the American Society for
Testing and Materials (ASTM), 100 Barr
Harbor Drive, Post Office Box C700,
West Conshohocken, PA 19428–2959.
See https://www.astm.org/.
While the EPA has identified another
19 VCS as being potentially applicable
to this NESHAP, we have decided not
to use these VCS in this rulemaking.
The use of these VCS would not be
practical due to lack of equivalency,
documentation, validation date, and
other important technical and policy
considerations. See the memorandum
titled Voluntary Consensus Standard
Results for National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and
Other Web Coating, in the docket for
this rule for the reasons for these
determinations (Docket ID Item No.
EPA–HQ–OAR–2018–0416–0068).
The revised regulatory text references
ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10–1981 (40 CFR
63.3360) and ASTM D5087–02 (40 CFR
63.3165). These standards were
previously approved for this section.
That approval continues without
change.
Under 40 CFR 63.7(f) and 40 CFR
63.8(f) of subpart A of the General
Provisions, a source may apply to the
EPA for permission to use alternative
test methods or alternative monitoring
requirements in place of any required
testing methods, performance
specifications, or procedures in the final
rule or any amendments.
K. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes that this action does
not have disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority populations, low
income populations, and/or indigenous
peoples, as specified in Executive Order
12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

*
*
*
*
Coating material(s) means all liquid
or semi-liquid materials (including the
solids fraction of those materials as
applied), such as inks, varnishes,
adhesives (including hot melt adhesives
or other hot melt materials), primers,
solvents, reducers, and other materials
applied to a substrate via a web coating
line. Materials used to form a substrate
or applied via vapor deposition, and dry
abrasive materials deposited on top of a
coated web, are not considered coating
materials.
*
*
*
*
*
Web coating line means any number
of work stations, of which one or more
applies a continuous layer of liquid or
semi-liquid coating material across the
entire width or any portion of the width
of a web substrate, and any associated
curing/drying equipment between an
unwind or feed station and a rewind or
cutting station.

and after July 9, 2021, for such sources
and on July 9, 2020, or immediately
upon startup, whichever is later, for
new or reconstructed affected sources,
you must always operate and maintain
your affected source, including
associated air pollution control
equipment and monitoring equipment,
in a manner consistent with safety and
good air pollution control practices for
minimizing emissions. The general duty
to minimize emissions does not require
the owner or operator to make any
further efforts to reduce emissions if
levels required by the applicable
standard have been achieved.
Determination of whether a source is
operating in compliance with operation
and maintenance requirements will be
based on information available to the
Administrator which may include, but
is not limited to, monitoring results,
review of operation and maintenance
procedures, review of operation and
maintenance records, and inspection of
the source.
(c) You must conduct each
performance test required by § 63.3360
according to the requirements in
§ 63.3360(e)(2) and under the conditions
in this section unless you obtain a
waiver of the performance test
according to the provisions in § 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 startup, shutdown, and
nonoperation do not constitute
representative conditions. You may not
conduct performance tests during
periods of malfunction. You must
record the process information that is
necessary to document operating
conditions during the test and explain
why the conditions represent normal
operation. Upon request, you shall make
available to the Administrator such
records as may be necessary to
determine the conditions of
performance tests.
(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. Representative
conditions exclude periods of startup
and shutdown. You may not conduct
performance tests during periods of
malfunction. You must record
information that is necessary to
document emission capture system and
add-on control device operating
conditions during the test and explain

(4) As-applied organic HAP mass
fraction. If the as-purchased coating
material is applied to the web without
any solvent or other material added,
then the as-applied organic HAP mass
fraction is equal to the as-purchased
organic HAP mass fraction. Otherwise,
the as-applied organic HAP mass
fraction must be calculated using
Equation 4 of § 63.3370.
(d) * * *
(1) Method 24. You may determine
the volatile organic and coating solids
mass fraction of each coating applied
using Method 24 (appendix A–7 to 40
CFR part 60). The Method 24
determination may be performed by the
manufacturer of the material and the
results provided to you. When using
volatile organic compound content as a
surrogate for HAP, you may also use
ASTM D3960–98, (incorporated by
reference, see § 63.14) as an alternative
to Method 24. If these values cannot be
determined using either of these
methods, you must submit an
alternative technique for determining
their values for approval by the
Administrator.
(2) Formulation data. You may
determine the volatile organic content
and coating solids content of a coating
material based on formulation data and
may rely on volatile organic content
data provided by the manufacturer of
the material. In the event of any
inconsistency between the formulation
data and the results of Method 24 of
appendix A–7 to 40 CFR part 60 and the
Method 24 results are higher, the results
of Method 24 will govern.
(3) As-applied volatile organic content
and coating solids content. If the aspurchased coating material is applied to
the web without any solvent or other
material added, then the as-applied
volatile organic content is equal to the
as-purchased volatile content and the
as-applied coating solids content is
equal to the as-purchased coating solids
content. Otherwise, the as-applied
volatile organic content must be
calculated using Equation 5 to
§ 63.3370(c)(4) and the as-applied
coating solids content must be
calculated using Equation 6 to
§ 63.3370(d).

must conduct three test runs as
specified in § 63.7(e)(3), and each test
run must last at least 1 hour.
(i) Method 1 or 1A of appendix A–1
to 40 CFR part 60 must be used for
sample and velocity traverses to
determine sampling locations.
(ii) Method 2, 2A, 2C, 2D, or 2F of
appendix A–1 to 40 CFR part 60, or
Method 2G of appendix A–2 to 40 CFR
part 60 must be used to determine gas
volumetric flow rate.
(iii) Method 3, 3A, or 3B of appendix
A–2 to 40 CFR part 60 must be used 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

§ 63.3370 How do I demonstrate
compliance with the emission standards?
You must demonstrate compliance
each month with the emission
coating formulation and operating
conditions), or a mass-balance type
approach using a modified Method 24
(including ASTM D5403–93 for
radiation-cureable coatings). The EF
should equal the proportion of the mass
of volatile organics emitted to the mass
of volatile organics in the coating
materials evaluated. You may use the EF
in your compliance calculations only for
periods that the work station(s) was
(were) used to make the product, or a
similar product, corresponding to that
produced during the performance test.
You must develop a separate EF for each
group of different products that you
choose to utilize an EF for calculating
emissions by conducting a separate
performance test for that group of
products. You must conduct a periodic
performance test to re-establish the EF
if there is a change in coating
formulation, operating conditions, or
other change that could reasonably be
expected to increase emissions since the
time of the last test that was used to
establish the EF.
(1) Calculate the mass of volatile
organics retained in the coated web or
otherwise not emitted for the month
from each group of similar products
using Equation 3:
limitations in § 63.3320(b)(1) through
(4). For each monthly demonstration,
you may apply any combination of the
emission limitations to each of your web
coating lines individually, to each of
one or more groupings of your lines
(including a single grouping
encompassing all lines of your affected
source), or to any combination of
individual and grouped lines, so long as
each web coating line is included in the
compliance demonstration for the
month (i.e., you are not required to
apply the same emission limitation to
each of the individual lines or groups of
lines). You may change the emission
limitation that you apply each month to
your individual or grouped lines, and
you may change line groupings for your
monthly compliance demonstration.
(a) A summary of how you must
demonstrate compliance follows:
If you choose to demonstrate
compliance by:
Then you must demonstrate that:
To accomplish this:
(1) Use of ‘‘as-purchased’’ compliant coating materials.

(i) The overall organic HAP control
efficiency is 95 percent or greater at an
existing affected source and 98 percent
or greater at a new affected source; or
(ii) The organic HAP emission rate
based on coating solids applied is no
more than 0.20 kg organic HAP per kg
coating solids applied at an existing
affected source and no more than 0.08
kg organic HAP per kg coating solids
applied at a new affected source; or

You will need to determine the amount
of coating material applied at greater
than or equal to 20 mass percent coating
solids and the amount of coating
material applied at less than 20 mass

based on coating material applied at
greater than or equal to 20 mass percent
coating solids complying with 0.2 kg
organic HAP per kg coating solids at an
existing affected source or 0.08 kg
organic HAP per kg coating solids at a
new affected source, and coating
material applied at less than 20 mass
percent coating solids complying with 4
mass percent organic HAP at an existing
affected source and 1.6 mass-percent
organic HAP at a new affected source as
follows:
(1) Determine the as-purchased mass
of each coating material applied each
month.
(2) Determine the as-purchased
coating solids content of each coating
material applied each month in
accordance with § 63.3360(d)(1).
(3) Determine the as-purchased mass
fraction of each coating material which
was applied at 20 mass percent or
greater coating solids content on an asapplied basis.
(4) Determine the total mass of each
solvent, diluent, thinner, or reducer
added to coating materials which were
applied at less than 20 mass percent
coating solids content on an as-applied
basis each month.

you must calculate organic HAP
emissions according to the procedures
in paragraphs (o)(1) through (4) of this
section, and use the calculation
procedures specified in paragraph (o)(5)
of this section to convert the monitoring
and other data into units of the selected
control option in paragraphs (f) through
(i) of this section. Use the procedures
specified in paragraph (o)(6) of this
section to demonstrate compliance.
(1) Solvent recovery system using
liquid-liquid material balance
compliance demonstration. If you
choose to comply by means of a liquidliquid material balance for each solvent
recovery system used to control one or
more web coating lines, you must
determine the organic HAP emissions
for those web coating lines controlled by
that solvent recovery system either:
(i) In accordance with paragraphs
(j)(1)(i) through (iii) and (v) through (vii)
of this section, if the web coating lines
controlled by that solvent recovery
system have only always-controlled
work stations; or
(ii) In accordance with paragraphs
(j)(1)(ii), (iii), (v), and (vi) and (p) of this
section, if the web coating lines
controlled by that solvent recovery
system have one or more nevercontrolled or intermittently-controlled
work stations.
(2) Solvent recovery system using
performance test compliance
demonstration and CEMS. To
demonstrate compliance through an
initial test of capture efficiency,
continuous monitoring of a capture
system operating parameter, and a
CEMS on each solvent recovery system
used to control one or more web coating
lines, you must:
(i) For each capture system delivering
emissions to that solvent recovery
system, monitor the operating parameter
established in accordance with
§ 63.3350(f) to ensure capture system
efficiency; and
(ii) Determine the organic HAP
emissions for those web coating lines
served by each capture system
delivering emissions to that solvent
recovery system either:
(A) In accordance with paragraphs
(j)(2)(i) through (iii), (v), (vi), and (viii)
of this section, if the web coating lines
served by that capture and control
system have only always-controlled
work stations; or
(B) In accordance with paragraphs
(j)(2)(i) through (iii), (vi), and (p) of this
section, if the web coating lines served
by that capture and control system have
one or more never-controlled or
intermittently-controlled work stations.

of capture efficiency and control device
efficiency, continuous monitoring of
capture system, and CPMS for control
device operating parameters for each
oxidizer used to control emissions from
one or more web coating lines, you
must:
(i) Monitor the operating parameter in
accordance with § 63.3350(e) to ensure
control device efficiency; and
(ii) For each capture system delivering
emissions to that oxidizer, monitor the
operating parameter established in
accordance with § 63.3350(f) to ensure
capture efficiency; and
(iii) Determine the organic HAP
emissions for those web coating lines
served by each capture system
delivering emissions to that oxidizer
either:
(A) In accordance with paragraphs
(l)(1)(i) through (vi) of this section, if the
web coating lines served by that capture
and control system have only alwayscontrolled work stations; or
(B) In accordance with paragraphs
(l)(1)(i) through (iii), (v), and (p) of this
section, if the web coating lines served
by that capture and control system have
one or more never-controlled or
intermittently-controlled work stations.
(4) Uncontrolled coating lines. If you
own or operate one or more
uncontrolled web coating lines, you
must determine the organic HAP
applied on those web coating lines
using Equation 10. The organic HAP
emitted from an uncontrolled web
coating line is equal to the organic HAP
applied on that web coating line.
(5) Convert the information obtained
under paragraphs (o)(1) through (4) of
this section into the units of the selected
compliance option using the calculation
procedures specified in paragraphs
(o)(5)(i) through (iv) of this section.

(ii) Coating solids applied. If
demonstrating compliance on the basis
of organic HAP emission rate based on
coating solids applied or emission of
less than the calculated allowable
organic HAP, the owner or operator
must determine the coating solids
content of each coating material applied
during the month following the
procedure in § 63.3360(d).

maintained at the values established
under §§ 63.3350 and 63.3360 and one
of the standards in paragraphs (o)(6)(i)
through (iv) of this section were met. If
operating parameter deviations
occurred, the affected source is in
compliance with the emission standards
in § 63.3320(b) for the month if,
assuming no control of emissions or by
estimating the emissions using a control
destruction efficiency curve for each 3hour deviation period, one of the
standards in paragraphs (6)(i) through

you may demonstrate monthly
compliance using a mass-balance
approach in accordance with this
section, except for any month that you
elect to meet the emission limitation in

approach should be performed as
follows:
(1) Separately for each individual/
grouping(s) of lines, you must sum the
mass of organic HAP emitted during the
month and divide by the corresponding
total mass of all organic HAP applied on
the lines, or total mass of coating
materials applied on the lines, or total
mass of coating solids applied on the
lines, for the same period, in accordance
with the emission limitation that you
have elected at § 63.3320(b)(1) through
(3) for the month’s demonstration. You
may also choose to use volatile organic
content as a surrogate for organic HAP
for the compliance demonstration in
accordance with § 63.3360(d). You are
required to include all emissions and
inputs that occur during periods that
each line or grouping of lines operates

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper
and Other Web Coating Residual Risk and Technology Review
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action finalizes the residual risk and technology review
(RTR) conducted for the Paper and Other Web Coating (POWC) source
category regulated under national emission standards for hazardous air
pollutants (NESHAP). The Agency is finalizing the proposed
determination that risks due to emissions of air toxics are acceptable
from this source category and that the current NESHAP provides an ample
margin of safety to protect public health. Further, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identified no new cost-effective
controls under the technology review that would achieve significant
further emissions reductions, and, thus, is finalizing the proposed
determination that no revisions to the standards are necessary based on
developments in practices, processes, or control technologies. In
addition, the Agency is taking final action addressing startup,
shutdown, and malfunction (SSM). These final amendments address
emissions during SSM events, add a compliance demonstration equation
that accounts for retained volatiles in the coated web; add repeat
testing and electronic reporting requirements; and make technical and
editorial changes. The EPA is making these amendments to improve the
effectiveness of the NESHAP, and although these amendments are not
expected to reduce emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP), they
will improve monitoring, compliance, and implementation of the rule.
DATES: This final rule is effective on July 9, 2020. The incorporation
by reference (IBR) of certain publications listed in the rule is
approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of July 9, 2020.
The IBR of certain other publications listed in the rule is approved by
the Director of the Federal Register as of December 4, 2002.

Washington, DC 20460.
II. Background
A. What is the statutory authority for this action?
Section 112 of the CAA establishes a two-stage regulatory process
to address emissions of HAP from stationary sources. In the first
stage, the Agency must identify categories of sources emitting one or
more of the HAP listed in CAA section 112(b) and then promulgate
technology-based NESHAP for those sources. ``Major sources'' are those
that emit, or have the potential to emit, any single HAP at a rate of
10 tons per year (tpy) or more, or 25 tpy or more of any combination of
HAP. For major sources, these standards are commonly
[[Page 41278]]
referred to as maximum achievable control technology (MACT) standards
and must reflect the maximum degree of emission reductions of HAP
achievable (after considering cost, energy requirements, and non-air
quality health and environmental impacts). In developing MACT
standards, CAA section 112(d)(2) directs the EPA to consider the
application of measures, processes, methods, systems, or techniques,
including, but not limited to, those that reduce the volume of or
eliminate HAP emissions through process changes, substitution of
materials, or other modifications; enclose systems or processes to
eliminate emissions; collect, capture, or treat HAP when released from
a process, stack, storage, or fugitive emissions point; are design,
equipment, work practice, or operational standards; or any combination
of the above.
For these MACT standards, the statute specifies certain minimum
stringency requirements, which are referred to as MACT floor
requirements, and which may not be based on cost considerations. See
CAA section 112(d)(3). For new sources, the MACT floor cannot be less
stringent than the emission control achieved in practice by the best-
controlled similar source. The MACT standards for existing sources can
be less stringent than floors for new sources, but they cannot be less
stringent than the average emission limitation 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
standards, the Agency must also consider control options that are more
stringent than the floor under CAA section 112(d)(2). The EPA may
establish standards more stringent than the floor, based on the
consideration of the cost of achieving the emissions reductions, any
non-air quality health and environmental impacts, and energy
requirements.
In the second stage of the regulatory process, the CAA requires the
EPA to undertake two different analyses, which we refer to as the
technology review and the residual risk review. Under the technology
review, the EPA must review the technology-based standards and revise
them ``as necessary (taking into account developments in practices,
processes, and control technologies)'' no less frequently than every 8
years, pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6). Under the residual risk
review, the EPA must evaluate the risk to public health remaining after
application of the technology-based standards and revise the standards,
if necessary, to provide an ample margin of safety to protect public
health or to prevent, taking into consideration costs, energy, safety,
and other relevant factors, an adverse environmental effect. The
residual risk review is required within 8 years after promulgation of
the technology-based standards, pursuant to CAA section 112(f). In
conducting the residual risk review, if the EPA determines that the
current standards provide an ample margin of safety to protect public
health, it is not necessary to revise the MACT standards pursuant to
CAA section 112(f).\1\ For more information on the statutory authority
for this rule, see 84 FR 49382 (September 19, 2019).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The Court has affirmed this approach of implementing CAA
section 112(f)(2)(A): NRDC v. EPA, 529 F.3d 1077, 1083 (DC Cir.
2008) (``If EPA determines that the existing technology-based
standards provide an `ample margin of safety,' then the Agency is
free to readopt those standards during the residual risk
rulemaking.'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
B. What is the POWC source category and how does the NESHAP regulate
HAP emissions From the source category?
The EPA promulgated the POWC NESHAP on December 4, 2002 (67 FR
72330). The standards are codified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ. The
POWC source category includes new and existing facilities that coat
paper and other web substrates that are major sources of HAP emissions.
For purposes of the regulation, a web is defined as a continuous
substrate that is capable of being rolled at any point during the
coating process. Further, a web coating line is any number of work
stations, of which one or more applies a continuous layer of coating
material along the entire width of a continuous web substrate or any
portion of the width of the web substrate, and any associated curing/
drying equipment between an unwind (or feed) station and a rewind (or
cutting) station. The source category covered by this NESHAP currently
includes 168 facilities.
Web coating operations covered by other NESHAP (i.e., Printing and
Publishing, 40 CFR part 63, subpart KK; Magnetic Tape, 40 CFR part 63,
subpart EE; Metal Coil Coating, 40 CFR part 63, subpart SSSS; Fabric
Coating, 40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO), and research and development
lines are excluded from the requirements of 40 CFR part 63, subpart
JJJJ. In addition, specific process exclusions include lithography,
screen printing, letterpress, and narrow web flexographic printing.
Facilities subject to the POWC NESHAP utilize low-solvent coatings,
add-on controls, or a combination of both to meet the organic HAP
emission limits, as described in the preamble to the proposed rule (84
FR 49385, September 19, 2019). The NESHAP also includes various
operating limits, initial and continuous compliance requirements, and
recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the POWC source category.
The EPA reviewed these requirements and are updating them as part of
this action in conjunction with finalizing the RTR for this source
category
C. What changes did we propose for the POWC source category in our
September 19, 2019, proposal?
On September 19, 2019, the EPA published a proposed rule in the
Federal Register for the POWC NESHAP, 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ,
that took into consideration the RTR analyses. As discussed in the
preamble to the proposed rule, the technology review did not identify
any developments in practices, processes, or control technologies that
were widely applicable to the industry that would significantly reduce
HAP emissions, and, therefore, the Agency did not propose any changes
to the NESHAP based on the technology review. Further, as discussed in
the preamble to the proposed rule, the risk analysis indicated no
changes to the NESHAP are necessary to reduce risk to an acceptable
level, to provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health,
or to prevent an adverse environmental effect. In addition to and
separate from the proposed determinations based on our RTR analyses,
the EPA proposed the following:
Revisions to the SSM provisions of the NESHAP to ensure
that they are consistent with the Court decision in Sierra Club v. EPA,
551 F. 3d 1019 (D.C. Cir. 2008), which vacated two provisions that
exempted sources from the requirement to comply with otherwise
applicable CAA section 112(d) emission standards during periods of SSM;
a new compliance calculation to account for retained
volatile organic content retained in the coated web;
new periodic air emissions testing requirements for
facilities that use non-recovery control devices;
new reporting provisions requiring affected sources to
electronically submit initial notifications, notification of compliance
status, semiannual compliance reports, performance test reports, and
performance evaluation reports;
new temperature sensor validation requirements;
operating parameter clarifications;
[[Page 41279]]
IBR of several test methods; and
technical and editorial changes to remove the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)-defined carcinogens reference,
clarify compliance demonstration options, clarify the definition of
coating materials, add a web coating line usage threshold, add a
printing activity exemption, clarify testing requirements, change
applicability of sources using only non-HAP coatings, clarify oxidizer
temperature monitoring compliance, and revise compliance report content
requirements.
III. What is included in this final rule?
This action is finalizing the EPA's determinations pursuant to the
RTR provisions of CAA section 112 for the POWC source category. This
action is also finalizing other changes to the NESHAP, including
revisions to the SSM requirements; a compliance calculation to account
for retained volatile organic content retained in the coated web;
periodic testing requirements for add-on control devices; electronic
submittal of initial notifications, notification of compliance status,
semiannual compliance reports, performance test reports, and
performance evaluation reports; temperature sensor validation
requirements; operating parameter clarifications; IBR of several test
methods; and various technical and editorial changes.
A. What are the final rule amendments based on the risk review for the
POWC source category?
The EPA proposed no changes to the POWC NESHAP based on the risk
review conducted pursuant to CAA section 112(f). The EPA is finalizing
the proposed determination that risks from the source category are
acceptable, considering all of the health information and factors
evaluated, and also considering risk estimation uncertainty. The Agency
is also finalizing the proposed determination that revisions to the
current standards are not necessary to reduce risk to an acceptable
level, to provide an ample margin of safety to protect public health,
or to prevent an adverse environmental effect. The EPA received no new
data or other information during the public comment period that
affected the proposed determinations. Therefore, the EPA is finalizing
the proposed determination and making no revisions to the NESHAP based
on the analyses conducted under CAA section 112(f), and we are
readopting the standards.
B. What are the final rule amendments based on the technology review
for the POWC source category?
In the proposed rule, the EPA proposed to determine that there are
no developments in practices, processes, and control technologies that
warrant revisions to the MACT standards for this source category. The
EPA received no new data or other information during the public comment
period that affected our proposed determinations. Therefore, the EPA is
finalizing the proposed determination and making no revisions to the
MACT standards under CAA section 112(d)(6).
C. What are the final rule amendments addressing emissions during
periods of SSM?
The EPA proposed amendments to the POWC NESHAP to remove and revise
provisions related to SSM. The EPA is finalizing the amendments, as
proposed, with minor clarifications with this rulemaking. In its 2008
decision in Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F.3d 1019 (D.C. Cir. 2008), the
Court vacated portions of two provisions in the EPA's CAA section 112
regulations governing the emissions of HAP during periods of SSM.
Specifically, the Court vacated the SSM exemption contained in 40 CFR
63.6(f)(1) and 40 CFR 63.6(h)(1), holding that under section 302(k) of
the CAA, emissions standards or limitations must be continuous in
nature and that the SSM exemption violates the CAA's requirement that
some CAA section 112 standards apply continuously. As detailed in
section IV.D of the preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR 49382,
September 19, 2019), the amended POWC NESHAP requires that the
standards apply at all times (see 40 CFR 63.3320(b)), consistent with
the Court decision in Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F.3d 1019 (D.C. Cir.
2008). In addition to eliminating the SSM exemption, the EPA has
removed the requirement for sources to develop and maintain an SSM
plan, as well as certain recordkeeping and reporting provisions related
to the SSM exemption.
The EPA is finalizing the SSM provisions as proposed without
setting a separate standard for startup and shutdown as discussed in
the preamble to the proposed rule in section IV.D. Further, the EPA is
not finalizing standards for malfunctions. As discussed in the
September 19, 2019, proposal, the EPA interprets CAA section 112 as not
requiring emissions that occur during periods of malfunction to be
factored into development of CAA section 112 standards, although the
EPA has the discretion to set standards for malfunctions where
feasible. For this action, it is unlikely that a malfunction would
result in a violation of the standards, and no comments were submitted
that would suggest otherwise. Refer to section IV.D of the preamble to
the proposed rule for further discussion of the EPA's rationale for the
decision not to set standards for malfunctions, as well as a discussion
of the actions a source could take in the unlikely event that a source
fails to comply with the applicable CAA section 112(d) standards as a
result of a malfunction event.
As explained in more detail below, the EPA is finalizing revisions
to the General Provisions table to 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ, to
eliminate requirements that include rule language providing an
exemption for periods of SSM. Additionally, the EPA is finalizing our
proposal to eliminate language related to SSM that treats periods of
startup and shutdown the same as periods of malfunction, as explained
further below. Finally, the EPA is finalizing the proposed amendments
to revise the reporting and recordkeeping requirements as they relate
to malfunctions, as further described below. As discussed in the
preamble to the proposed rule, these revisions are consistent with the
requirement in 40 CFR 63.3320(b) that the standards apply at all times.
Refer to sections IV.C of this preamble for a detailed discussion of
these amendments.
D. What other changes have been made to the NESHAP?
Other changes that have been made to the regulation include
incorporation of a compliance calculation to account for retained
volatile organic content retained in the coated web; periodic
performance testing requirements; electronic submittal of initial
notifications, notification of compliance status, semiannual compliance
reports, performance test reports, and performance evaluation reports;
temperature sensor validation requirements; operating parameter
clarifications; IBR of several test methods; and various technical and
editorial changes. The EPA's analyses and changes related to these
issues are discussed below.
Other changes to the NESHAP that do not fall into the categories in
the previous section include:
Method for determining volatile organic matter retained in
the coated web. The EPA is finalizing the addition of an equation to
account for volatile organic matter retained in the coated
[[Page 41280]]
web as discussed in section IV.D of this preamble.
Periodic performance testing. The EPA is finalizing a
periodic testing requirement for non-recovery add-on control devices to
ensure continued compliance, as discussed in section IV.E of this
preamble.
Electronic reporting. The EPA is finalizing amendments to
the reporting requirements to require electronic reporting for initial
notifications, notifications of compliance status, semiannual
compliance reports, performance test reports, and performance
evaluation reports, as discussed in section IV.F of this preamble.
Temperature sensor validation. The EPA is finalizing
amendments to remove the temperature sensor calibration requirement and
replace it with validation requirements to ensure continued compliance,
as discussed in section IV.G of this preamble.
Operating parameter clarification. The EPA is finalizing,
as proposed, an operating parameter clarification, as discussed in
section IV.H of this preamble.
IBR under 1 CFR part 51. The EPA is finalizing the IBR of
several test methods, as discussed in section IV.I of this preamble.
Technical and editorial changes. The EPA is finalizing
technical and editorial changes, as discussed in section IV.J of this
preamble.
E. What are the effective and compliance dates of the standards?
The revisions to the NESHAP being promulgated in this action are
effective on July 9, 2020.\2\ The compliance date for affected existing
facilities is 365 days after the effective date of the final rule, with
the exception of electronic reporting of semiannual reports. Affected
source owners and operators that commence construction or
reconstruction after September 19, 2019, must comply with all
requirements of the subpart, including the amendments being finalized
with this action (except for the electronic reporting of semiannual
reports), no later than the effective date of the final rule or upon
startup, whichever is later. All affected sources must use the
Compliance and Emissions Data Reporting Interface (CEDRI) reporting
template for semiannual reports for the subsequent semiannual reporting
period after the form has been available in CEDRI for 1 year. All
affected existing facilities must meet the current requirements of 40
CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ until the applicable compliance date of the
amended rule.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ This final action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2), so the effective date of the final rule is the
promulgation date as specified in CAA section 112(d)(10).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As explained in the preamble to the proposed rule, the EPA proposed
a compliance period of 180 days for existing sources because the
amendments would impact ongoing compliance requirements (84 FR 79406,
September 19, 2019). Two significant amendments, the removal of the SSM
exemption and the addition of electronic reporting, were determined to
require additional time for changing reporting and recordkeeping
systems. As stated in the preamble to the proposed rule, the EPA's
experience with similar industries that are required to convert
reporting mechanisms; install necessary hardware and software; become
familiar with the process of submitting performance test results
electronically through the EPA's CEDRI; test these new electronic
submission capabilities; reliably employ electronic reporting; and
convert logistics of reporting processes to different time-reporting
parameters, shows that a time period of a minimum of 90 days, and more
typically, 180 days, is generally necessary to successfully complete
these changes. Our experience with similar industries further shows
that owners or operators of this sort of regulated facility generally
requires a time period of 180 days to read and understand the amended
rule requirements; evaluate their operations to ensure that they can
meet the standards during periods of startup and shutdown as defined in
the rule, and make any necessary adjustments; adjust parameter
monitoring and recording systems to accommodate revisions; and update
their operations to reflect the revised requirements. The EPA
recognizes the confusion that multiple compliance dates for individual
requirements would create and the additional burden such an assortment
of dates would impose.
In the preamble to the proposed rule, the EPA solicited comment on
whether the 180-day compliance period was reasonable and specifically
requested sources provide information regarding the specific actions
they would need to undertake to comply with the amended rule. The EPA
also noted that information provided in response to this request for
comment could result in changes to the proposed compliance date (84 FR
49406, September 19, 2019). Comments were provided suggesting that 180
days was not enough time to comply with the proposed changes and that a
minimum of 365 days was needed. Commenters noted that tasks that would
need to be completed during the compliance period were: Develop site-
specific implementation plan for changes to add-on control device
requirements; review startup and shutdown procedures; reprogram
electronic systems and automated alarms consistent with the removal of
the SSM provisions; revise the oxidizer temperature operating limit;
rework recordkeeping and reporting procedures and systems to match the
new CEDRI form; develop and communicate guidance to ensure consistent
implementation across a company's facilities; prepare permit
applications; acquire new permits; and develop and provide training for
facility staff on the amended requirements.
The EPA reviewed the information provided by commenters regarding
tasks needed to be completed during the compliance period and agrees
that 180 days is not sufficient time, particularly for implementing the
changes to add-on control device requirements and for reworking
recordkeeping and reporting procedures to comply with the amendments,
including the removal of the SSM exemption. This source category needs
additional time for these changes because of the complexity of the
compliance calculations and the potential for a large variety of
products to be produced on the same equipment (which requires multiple
startup and shutdown events on a regular basis). From our assessment of
the time frame needed for compliance with the entirety of the revised
requirements and considering the public comments received, the EPA
considers a period of 365 days to be the most expeditious compliance
period practicable for the POWC source category, and, thus, the EPA is
finalizing that existing affected sources must be in compliance with
all of the POWC NESHAP amended requirements within 365 days of the
effective date.
Additionally, comments were received from multiple commenters
requesting more time to develop and train on the CEDRI semiannual
reporting template. The Agency agrees with the commenters that more
time is needed to accurately develop the template and to train facility
staff on its use. As such, the EPA is finalizing that the electronic
reporting template is not required to be used for semiannual reports
until it has been available in CEDRI for 1 year. To prevent two
separate reports for one semiannual reporting period, the Agency is
finalizing that the reporting template should be used for the first
full semiannual reporting period after the template has been available
in CEDRI for 1 year. For example, if the template
[[Page 41281]]
becomes available in CEDRI on March 13, 2020, it would be used
beginning with the report submitted for the July 2021-December 2021
reporting period.
IV. What is the rationale for our final decisions and amendments for
the POWC source category?
For each issue, this section provides a description of what the EPA
proposed and what the EPA is finalizing for the issue, a summary of key
comments and responses, and the EPA's rationale for the final decisions
and amendments. For all comments not discussed in this preamble,
comment summaries and the EPA's responses can be found in the comment
summary and response document available in the docket (Docket ID No.
EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416).
A. Residual Risk Review for the POWC Source Category
1. What did we propose pursuant to CAA section 112(f) for the POWC
source category?
A residual risk analysis was conducted for the POWC source
category. Details of the risk analysis can be found in section IV of
the preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR 49382, September 19, 2019).
The results of the risk analyses, and decisions on risk acceptability
and ample margin of safety, as well as the results of the environmental
risk screening assessment, are summarized here.
For the POWC source category risk assessment conducted prior to
proposal, the EPA estimated risks based on actual and allowable
emissions from POWC surface coating operations. The risk results for
the POWC source category indicate that both the actual and allowable
inhalation cancer risks to the individual most exposed are at least 14
times below the presumptive limit of acceptability of 100-in-1 million
(i.e., 1-in-10 thousand). The residual risk assessment for the POWC
source category \3\ estimated cancer incidence rate at 0.005 cases per
year based on actual emissions. Approximately 4,300 people are exposed
to a cancer risk equal to or above 1-in-1 million from the source
category based upon actual emissions from 11 facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ Residual Risk Assessment for the Paper and Other Web Coating
Source Category in Support of the 2020 Risk and Technology Review
Final Rule, Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The maximum chronic noncancer target organ-specific hazard index
(TOSHI) due to inhalation exposures is less than 1 for actual and
allowable emissions. The results of the acute screening analysis show
that acute risks are below a level of concern for the source category
considering the conservative assumptions used that err on the side of
overestimating acute risk.
Multipathway screen values are below a level of concern for both
carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic persistent and bioaccumulative HAP as
well as emissions of lead compounds. Maximum cancer and noncancer risks
due to ingestion exposures using health-protective risk screening
assumptions are below the presumptive limit of acceptability. The
maximum estimated excess cancer risk is below 1-in-1 million and the
maximum noncancer hazard quotient (HQ) for mercury is less than 1 based
upon the Tier 1 farmer/fisher exposure scenario.
The risk assessment for the POWC source category is contained in
the report titled Residual Risk Assessment for the Paper and Other Web
Coating Source Category in Support of the 2020 Risk and Technology
Review Final Rule, which can be found in the docket for this action
(Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416).
2. How did the risk review change for the POWC source category?
Neither the risk assessment nor the Agency's determinations
regarding risk acceptability, ample margin of safety, or adverse
environmental effects for the POWC source category have changed since
the proposal was published on September 19, 2019. Therefore, the EPA is
finalizing the risk review as proposed with no changes (84 FR 49398,
September 19, 2019).
3. What key comments did we receive on the risk review, and what are
our responses?
Comments were received regarding the risk assessment inputs the EPA
used to conduct the POWC source category risk assessment. First,
commenters noted that the acute emissions multipliers should be less
than the value of 10 that the EPA used in its source category acute
risk assessment. The EPA agrees with the commenters that an acute
hourly multiplier of 10 likely over-estimates the emissions for this
source category, however, we did not reanalyze acute risk for this
final rulemaking because the risk values were already deemed acceptable
using the multiplier of 10 for the proposal and would have been further
reduced with a lower multiplier. Second, commenters noted that the
EPA's risk assessment was ``very conservative and likely overstates
both annual and short-term HAP emission rates'' because it used
allowable emissions as actual emissions where no other data were
available. The commenters are correct in their assessment that the EPA
used allowable emissions as actual emissions when no other data were
available to ensure that the risk analysis did not underestimate the
risk posed by the source category. Because risk was acceptable using
this conservative approach and would have been reduced further if
actual emissions data had been available, the results of this approach
further supports the EPA's conclusion.
Additionally, comments were received regarding the risk assessment
methods the EPA used to conduct the POWC source category risk
assessment. Two commenters stated that the formaldehyde health value
used in the risk assessment was not based on the best available
science, and that the EPA should have used the value from the Chemical
Industry Institute of Technology (CIIT) biologically-based dose-
response model. We disagree with the commenters that the EPA should
have used the CIIT formaldehyde value because the EPA has a tiered
prioritized list of appropriate health benchmark values for use in the
residual risk assessment, and in general, the hierarchy places greater
weight on the EPA-derived health benchmarks than those from other
organizations. Even though the commenters claim the Integrated Risk
Information System (IRIS) value the EPA used was too high (i.e., the
value over-estimated risk), the EPA proposed, and is finalizing, that
the risks from formaldehyde from this source category are acceptable.
Comments were also received supporting the EPA's use of the 99th
percentile concentration for modeling acute risk. Overall, the EPA
received no comments or new information demonstrating a need for the
Agency to reanalyze risk for the final rulemaking, and, therefore, the
risk assessment conducted for the proposed rule was used to support the
Agency's conclusions for the final rule.
Additionally, the EPA received several comments supporting our
conclusions relating to risk acceptability and that additional
emissions reductions are not necessary to provide an ample margin of
safety. One commenter opposed our acceptability determination because
the EPA did not consider risk from emission sources from other source
categories. The EPA has the discretion to conduct a facility-wide risk
assessment which factors in emissions from process equipment outside of
the source category. The Agency examines facility-wide risks to provide
additional context for the source category risks. The development of
facility-wide risk estimates provides
[[Page 41282]]
additional information about the potential cumulative risks in the
vicinity of the source category emission units as one means of
informing potential risk-based decisions about the source category in
question. The Agency recognizes that, because these risk estimates were
derived from facility-wide emission estimates which have not generally
been subjected to the same level of engineering review as the source
category emission estimates, they may be less certain than our risk
estimates for the source category in question, but they remain
important for providing context as long as their uncertainty is taken
into consideration in the process.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the residual risk review
and the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the docket,
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and
Other Web Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on
September 19, 2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the risk review?
As noted in our proposal, the EPA sets standards under CAA section
112(f)(2) using ``a two-step standard-setting approach, with an
analytical first step to determine an `acceptable risk' that considers
all health information, including risk estimation uncertainty, and
includes a presumptive limit on maximum individual risk (MIR) of
`approximately 1-in-10 thousand''' (see 54 FR 38045, September 14,
1989). The EPA weighs all health risk factors in our risk acceptability
determination, including the cancer MIR, cancer incidence, the maximum
TOSHI, the maximum acute noncancer HQ, the extent of noncancer risks,
the distribution of cancer and noncancer risks in the exposed
population, and the risk estimation uncertainties.
The EPA evaluated all of the comments on the risk review and
determined that no changes to the review are needed. For the reasons
explained in the proposal, the EPA determined that the risks from the
POWC source category are acceptable, and the current standards provide
an ample margin of safety to protect public health and prevent an
adverse environmental effect. Therefore, pursuant to CAA section
112(f)(2), the EPA is finalizing the residual risk review as proposed.
B. Technology Review for the POWC Source Category
1. What did we propose pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6) for the POWC
source category?
Pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6), the EPA proposed to conclude
that no revisions to the current MACT standards for the POWC source
category are necessary (84 FR 49382, September 19, 2019). As described
in section III.B of the preamble to the proposed rule, the technology
review focused on identifying developments in practices, processes, and
control technologies for reduction of HAP emissions from POWC
facilities. In conducting the technology review, the EPA searched for
and reviewed information on practices, processes, and control
technologies that were not considered during the development of the
POWC NESHAP. The review included a search of the Reasonably Available
Control Technology/Best Available Control Technology/Lowest Achievable
Emission Rate (RACT/BACT/LAER) Clearinghouse database, reviews of title
V permits for POWC facilities, site visits to facilities with POWC
operations, and a review of relevant literature. We did not identify
any developments in practices, processes, or control technologies that
were widely applicable to the industry and would significantly reduce
HAP emissions, and, therefore, the EPA did not propose any changes to
the NESHAP based on the technology review. For more details on the
technology review, see the Technology Review Analysis for the Paper and
Other Web Coating Source Category memorandum, in the docket for this
rulemaking (Docket ID Item No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416-0086).
2. How did the technology review change for the POWC source category?
No new information was received to change the Agency's conclusions
with respect to the technology review since the proposal was published
on September 19, 2019. Therefore, the EPA is finalizing the proposed
determination that no revisions to the NESHAP are necessary pursuant to
CAA section 112(d)(6).
3. What key comments did we receive on the technology review, and what
are our responses?
The EPA received no comments that identified improved control
technology, work practices, operational procedures, process changes, or
pollution prevention approaches to reduce emissions in the category
since promulgation of the current NESHAP. The EPA received multiple
supportive comments on the proposed technology review. For detailed
comment summaries regarding the technology review and the corresponding
responses, see the memorandum in the docket, National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating (40
CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and Technology Review, Final
Amendments--Response to Public Comments on September 19, 2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach for the technology
review?
The technology review did not identify any changes in practices,
processes, or control technologies that would reduce emissions in this
category. The EPA did not identify any control equipment not previously
identified; improvements to existing controls; work practices, process
changes, or operational procedures not previously considered; or any
new pollution prevention alternatives for this source category. We
evaluated all of the comments on the technology review and determined
that no changes to the review are needed, therefore, the EPA is
finalizing the determination that no revisions to the NESHAP are
necessary pursuant to CAA section 112(d)(6). Additional details of our
technology review can be found in the memorandum titled Technology
Review Analysis for the Paper and Other Web Coating Source Category, in
the docket for this rulemaking (Docket ID Item No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-
0416-0086).
C. Revisions to the SSM Provisions for the POWC Source Category
1. What did we propose pursuant to SSM provisions for the POWC source
category?
The EPA proposed amendments to the POWC NESHAP to remove provisions
related to SSM that are not consistent with the requirement that the
standards apply at all times. More information concerning the
elimination of SSM provisions is in the preamble to the proposed rule
(84 FR 49399-49402, September 19, 2019).
2. How did the revisions to the SSM provisions change for the POWC
source category?
The EPA is finalizing the SSM provisions as proposed with no
changes.
3. What key comments did we receive on the SSM provisions, and what are
our responses?
The EPA received several comments related to the proposed removal
of the
[[Page 41283]]
SSM provisions. One commenter believed that the EPA is not required to
change the regulation to require sources to meet the emission standards
at all times, including periods of SSM. The EPA disagrees with the
commenter's assertion. The EPA believes the Sierra Club decision
(Sierra Club v. EPA, 551 F.3d 1019) held that emission limitations
under CAA section 112 must apply continuously and meet minimum
stringency requirements, even during periods of SSM. Consistent with
this reading, the EPA proposed to remove the SSM exemption, and is
finalizing the removal with this action. Other commenters were
generally supportive of the SSM exemption removal and noted that it
would likely have minimal impacts on regulated facilities. For detailed
comment summaries regarding the removal of the SSM exemption and the
corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the docket, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web
Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and Technology
Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on September 19,
2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the revisions to the SSM provisions?
The rationale for each of the amendments the EPA is finalizing to
address SSM is in the preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR 49399-49402,
September 19, 2019). After evaluation of the comments received, the
EPA's rationale for revisions to the SSM provisions has not changed
since proposal and we are finalizing the approach for removing the SSM
provisions as proposed.
D. Method for Determining Volatile Organic Matter Retained in the
Coated Web
1. What did we propose?
A portion of the HAP in coatings applied to paper and other web
substrates may be retained in the web instead of being volatilized as
air emissions. The existing NESHAP allows for the accounting of HAP
retained in the coated web in 40 CFR 63.3360(g), but stakeholders
indicated the requirement to ``develop a testing protocol to determine
the mass of volatile matter retained . . . and submit this protocol to
the Administrator for approval'' was vague and unworkable. As discussed
in the preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR 49402, September 19, 2019),
to provide clarity and reduce regulatory burden, the EPA proposed to
incorporate the utilization of an emission factor to account for
volatile organic matter retained in the coated web. As discussed in the
preamble to the proposed rule, the EPA proposed new language to allow
facilities to account for retained volatile organics in their
compliance demonstration calculations without requiring the submittal
of an alternative monitoring request to the EPA under the provisions of
40 CFR 63.8(f).
2. What changed since proposal?
Two changes have been made to the proposed provisions for
determining volatile organic matter retained in the coated web. First,
the EPA has clarified that ``retained in the web'' means ``retained in
the coated web or otherwise not emitted.'' Second, the EPA has added
additional flexibility to allow any EPA-approved method, manufacturer's
emissions test data, or mass balance approach using modified EPA Method
24 to be used to develop the emission factor.
3. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
The EPA received comments from four commenters supporting the
addition of the emission factor approach for determining the amount of
volatile matter retained in the web. Commenters suggested that the EPA
clarify that ``retained in the web'' means ``retained in the coated web
or otherwise not emitted.'' The EPA agrees that this is an appropriate
clarification and has revised the regulatory text accordingly.
The EPA also received comments suggesting that we allow other
methods for developing the emission factor to determine the amount of
volatile organic matter retained. Commenters specifically requested the
ability to use other EPA-approved test methods, manufacturer's
emissions test data, or mass-balance type approaches using modified EPA
Method 24. The EPA agrees that allowing the use of these methods would
provide flexibility and still appropriately characterize emissions from
the web coating process.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the methods used to
determine the volatile organic matter retained in the coated web and
the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the docket, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web
Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and Technology
Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on September 19,
2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach to determining volatile
matter retained in the coated web?
The EPA reviewed the public comments and are finalizing the
proposed method of determining the volatile organic material retained
in the coated web with two changes as a result of public comment. The
EPA is clarifying that ``retained in the web'' means ``retained in the
coated web or otherwise not emitted'' in the regulatory text and is
allowing for additional test methods for use in the development of the
emission factor. Both of these changes provide regulatory clarity and
flexibility, but still appropriately characterize emissions from the
web coating process. The amendments add compliance flexibility and
reduce regulatory burden but do not alter the emission standard. This
approach quantifies emissions in a way that is representative of the
actual emissions from the coating operations instead of assuming that
all coating-HAP is emitted.
E. Periodic Performance Testing
1. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed that facilities that use non-recovery control
devices (e.g., thermal and catalytic oxidizers) must conduct periodic
air emissions performance testing, with the first of the periodic
performance tests to be conducted within 3 years of the effective date
of the revised standards and thereafter every 5 years following the
previous test. The EPA also proposed that facilities using the emission
factor approach to account for volatile matter retained in the web must
conduct periodic performance testing every 5 years to re-establish the
emission factor.
2. What changed since proposal?
The periodic performance testing requirements for catalytic
oxidizers and those for emission factor development have changed since
the September 2019 proposal in response to public comment. For
catalytic oxidizers, commenters suggested that annual catalyst activity
testing would be more indicative of oxidizer operation than 5-year
inlet/outlet emissions testing. The EPA is therefore finalizing that
catalytic oxidizers may do an annual catalyst activity test instead of
the 5-year inlet/outlet emissions testing. The EPA is finalizing
periodic performance testing requirements for thermal oxidizers as
proposed (84 FR 49403, September 19, 2019). The EPA has clarified that
the testing is only required for add-on control devices used to
demonstrate
[[Page 41284]]
compliance with the POWC NESHAP. The EPA is not finalizing the 5-year
requirement to re-establish emission factors used in determining the
amount of volatile organics retained in the coated web for 40 CFR
63.3360(g), but is finalizing a requirement that periodic performance
testing be done if there is a change in coating formulation, operation
conditions, or other change that could reasonably result in increased
emissions since the time of the last test used to establish the
emission factor.
3. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Comments were received both opposing and supporting the proposed 5-
year periodic emissions testing requirements. Commenters that opposed
the requirements noted that oxidizers are not used continuously in the
flexible packaging industry but only when compliant coatings are not
used and stated that testing does not show any evidence of degradation
in thermal oxidizers. Commenters noted that degradation may occur when
a catalytic oxidizer is used to control a process using silicon-
containing coatings, but that a catalyst activity test would be more
appropriate to determine performance. The EPA has reviewed these
comments and is finalizing repeat emissions performance testing for
catalytic oxidizers with the alternative to perform an annual catalyst
activity test. The EPA is finalizing the periodic emissions performance
test requirements for thermal oxidizers, as proposed. Both requirements
can be found in 40 CFR 63.3360(a)(2).
Commenters suggested that periodic performance testing for re-
establishment of emission factors, such as for reactive coatings, is
not necessary in most cases and would be excessively burdensome and
unnecessary, except if the product's formulation or its process
conditions have changed in a way that would increase emissions. The EPA
has reviewed the commenters concerns and agrees that repeat testing to
re-establish emission factors for coatings used in the POWC industry
every 5 years could be burdensome and is not finalizing this
requirement in this action.
Commenters requested clarification that the first periodic
emissions performance test can be conducted within either 3 years of
promulgation of the final amendments or within 60 months of the
previous test, whichever is later, to ensure that any facility that has
recently conducted a performance test will have the full 5 years
between tests. The EPA intended that performance tests recently
performed (within 3 years of promulgation of the final amendments) can
count towards the first periodic testing requirements. Commenters also
requested clarification if state-required volatile organic compound
(VOC) performance testing or HAP performance testing performed for
another MACT can count towards this requirement. The EPA agrees that
both testing for VOC destruction efficiency and HAP destruction
efficiency for another subpart are appropriate substitutions for the
periodic testing requirements in the POWC NESHAP because these tests
will demonstrate ongoing performance of the control device. Both of
these issues have been clarified in 40 CFR 63.3330(a)(2).
Commenters requested clarification that only control devices used
to demonstrate compliance with the POWC NESHAP would need to be tested,
and that VOC tests required by the state permitting authority could be
used to meet the proposed requirements. The EPA agrees with the
commenters that add-on control devices not used to demonstrate
compliance with the POWC NESHAP (i.e., those used to demonstrate
compliance with new source performance standards (NSPS) or state VOC
requirements) are not required to be tested under the POWC NESHAP
amendments. The EPA also agrees that VOC tests required by the state
permitting authority could be used to meet the POWC repeat testing
requirements. The EPA's proposal was not intended to impose duplicative
testing requirements. Regulatory text has been amended throughout the
NESHAP to state that the requirements for add-on control devices are
only for those used to demonstrate compliance with 40 CFR 63.3320, and
that VOC tests required by state permitting authorities can be used to
meet the repeat performance testing requirements.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the repeat testing
provisions and the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the
docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper
and Other Web Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on
September 19, 2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the periodic emissions testing requirement?
Although ongoing monitoring of operating parameters is required by
the existing POWC NESHAP, as the control device ages over time, the
destruction efficiency of the control device can be compromised due to
various factors. These factors are discussed in more detail in the
memorandum titled Revised Periodic Testing of Control Devices Used to
Comply with the Paper and Other Web Coating NESHAP, in the docket for
this rulemaking (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416). After considering
the comments discussed above and based on the need for vigilance in
maintaining the control device equipment, the EPA is finalizing the
requirement for periodic testing of thermal oxidizers once every 5
years and the alternative of annual catalyst activity tests for
catalytic oxidizers.
F. Electronic Reporting
1. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed amendments to the POWC NESHAP to require owners
and operators of POWC facilities to submit electronic copies of
required performance test reports (40 CFR 63.3400(f)), performance
evaluation reports (40 CFR 63.3400(g)), initial notifications (40 CFR
63.3400(b)), notification of compliance status (40 CFR 63.3400(e)), and
semiannual compliance reports (40 CFR 63.3400(c)) through the EPA's
Central Data Exchange (CDX) using CEDRI. A description of the
electronic data submission process is provided in the proposal (at 84
FR 49403, September 19, 2019) and in the memorandum, Electronic
Reporting Requirements for New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
Rules, Docket ID Item No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416-0091. The proposed
amendment replaces the previous rule requirement to submit the
notifications and reports to the Administrator at the appropriate
address listed in 40 CFR 63.13. This rule requirement does not affect
submittals required by state air agencies as required by 40 CFR 63.13.
For the performance test reports required in 40 CFR 63.3400(f), the
amendments proposed required that performance test results collected
using test methods that are supported by the EPA's Electronic Reporting
Tool (ERT) as listed on the ERT website \4\ at the time of the test be
submitted in the format generated through the use of the ERT and that
other performance test results be submitted in portable document format
(PDF) using the attachment module of the ERT. Similarly, performance
evaluation results of continuous monitoring systems (CMS)
[[Page 41285]]
measuring relative accuracy test audit pollutants that are supported by
the ERT at the time of the test must be submitted in the format
generated through the use of the ERT and other performance evaluation
results be submitted in PDF using the attachment module of the ERT.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ https://www.epa.gov/electronic-reporting-air-emissions/electronic-reporting-tool-ert.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the proposed electronic submittal of initial notifications
required in 40 CFR 63.3400(b), no specific form is available at this
time, therefore, these notifications are required to be submitted in
PDF using the attachment module of the ERT. For electronic submittal of
notifications of compliance status reports required in 40 CFR
63.3400(e), it was proposed that the final semiannual report template
discussed above, would also contain the information required for the
notification of compliance status report.
For semiannual compliance reports required in 40 CFR 63.3400(c),
the amendment proposed required that owners and operators use the final
semiannual report template to submit information to CEDRI. The template
will reside in CEDRI and was proposed to be used on and after 180 days
past finalization of the amendments. The proposed template for these
reports was included in the docket for public comment.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ See POWC_Electronic_Reporting_Template.xlsx, available at
Docket ID Item No. EPA-HQ-2018-0416-0165.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additionally, in the proposal, the EPA identified two broad
circumstances in which electronic reporting extensions may be provided.
In both circumstances, the decision to accept the claim of needing
additional time to report is within the discretion of the
Administrator, and reporting should occur as soon as possible. The EPA
provided these potential extensions to protect owners and operators
from noncompliance in cases where they cannot successfully submit a
report by the reporting deadline for reasons outside of their control.
2. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has changed the deadline to use the CEDRI semiannual
reporting template to be 1 year after the template has been available
in CEDRI, instead of the proposed 180 days after date of publication of
the final rule. The EPA has also changed the electronic submittal of
the notification of compliance status to be a PDF instead in the
semiannual reporting template. No other changes have been made to the
proposed requirement for owners and operators of POWC facilities to
submit initial notifications, performance test reports, performance
evaluation reports, and semiannual reports electronically using CEDRI.
3. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
The EPA received one comment supporting the proposed amendment to
require electronic reporting. The commenter, however, believed that the
proposed force majeure language in 40 CFR 63.3400(j) should be removed
so there is no exemption from reporting due to force majeure events. As
explained in detail in the response-to-comments document, 40 CFR
63.3400(j) does not provide an exemption to reporting, only a method
for requesting an extension of the reporting deadline. The EPA has
retained the proposed language in 40 CFR 63.3400(j) for the final rule.
Commenters expressed concern about potential inconsistencies
between the POWC electronic reporting requirements and state
requirements of paper copies of reports for VOC and title V compliance.
Commenters asked for clarification that the electronic reporting
requirements replace the POWC title V compliance reporting, including
timing. The Agency does not agree with the commenter's suggestion
concerning potential inconsistencies between state requirements for
paper reporting and federal requirements for VOC and title V permit
compliance. State requirements developed under the state's own
authorities are separate and apart from federal requirements developed
for this rule. As individual federal rules establish applicable
requirements--including electronic reporting--title V programs bundle
those individual requirements, except for adding appropriate periodic
monitoring when necessary, without change. Therefore, title V and the
individual rule's electronic reporting requirements are the same.
Commenters also asked for clarification that the transition to the
new reporting methodology would apply to an entire reporting period
instead of becoming effective in the middle of a reporting period,
resulting in two different reports being prepared. The EPA's intent was
not to require two different reports to be prepared for one reporting
period. The EPA has clarified in this action that the reporting
template should be used at the beginning of the first full reporting
period after the template has been available in CEDRI for 1 year.
Commenters expressed concern regarding the electronic reporting
template and asked for more time to meet with the EPA to develop and
understand the spreadsheet. Commenters also provided feedback on the
spreadsheet. The EPA agrees that more time is needed to develop the
template and to work with stakeholders to understand how to use the
spreadsheet. As such, the EPA is changing the compliance date for using
the spreadsheet template to be 1 year after the final template is
available in CEDRI. The EPA will work with stakeholders to develop the
spreadsheet and to provide training on CEDRI and how to complete the
spreadsheet. Because the EPA intends to work with stakeholders to
update the template in the future, it has not placed an updated version
of the template in the docket for this rulemaking.

the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the docket, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web
Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and Technology
Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on September 19,
2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the electronic reporting requirement?
The EPA is finalizing, as proposed, the requirement that owners or
operators of POWC facilities submit electronic copies of initial
notifications, notifications of compliance status, performance test
reports, performance evaluation reports, and semiannual compliance
reports using CEDRI. The EPA is finalizing that the deadline to use the
CEDRI semiannual reporting template is 1 year after the template has
been available in CEDRI. The EPA is finalizing that the electronic
submittal of the notice of compliance status should be in pdf form
instead of the semiannual reporting template. The EPA is also
finalizing, as proposed, provisions that allow facility owners or
operators a process to request extensions for submitting electronic
reports for circumstances beyond the control of the facility (i.e., for
a possible outage in the CDX or CEDRI or for a force majeure event).
The amendments will increase the usefulness of the data contained in
those reports; is in keeping with current trends in data availability
and transparency; will further assist in the protection of public
health and the environment; will improve compliance by facilitating the
ability of regulated facilities to demonstrate compliance with
requirements and by facilitating the ability of delegated state, local,
tribal, and territorial air agencies and
[[Page 41286]]
the EPA to assess and determine compliance; and will ultimately reduce
burden on regulated facilities, delegated air agencies, and the EPA.
For more information on the benefits of electronic reporting, see the
memorandum, Electronic Reporting Requirements for New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) Rules, Docket ID Item No. EPA-HQ-OAR-
2018-0416-0165.
G. Temperature Sensor Validation
1. What did we propose?
As discussed in the preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR 49382,
September 19, 2019), at 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(9), the original POWC NESHAP
required facilities to conduct an electronic calibration of the
temperature monitoring device every 3 months or, if calibration could
not be performed, replace the temperature sensor. Facilities subject to
the standard have explained to the EPA that they are not aware of a
temperature sensor manufacturer that provides procedures or protocols
for conducting electronic calibration of temperature sensors.
Facilities have reported that because they cannot calibrate their
temperature sensors, the alternative is to replace them every 3 months.
Industry representatives explained that this is burdensome and
requested that an alternative approach to the current requirement in 40
CFR 63.3350(e)(9) be considered.
The EPA proposed to modify 40 CFR 63.3350(e) to allow multiple
alternative approaches to temperature sensor validation. The first
alternative allows the use of a National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) traceable temperature measurement device or simulator
to confirm the accuracy of any temperature sensor placed into use for
at least one quarterly period, where the accuracy of the temperature
measurement must be within 2.5 percent of the temperature measured by
the NIST traceable device or 5 degrees Fahrenheit, whichever is
greater. The second alternative allows the temperature sensor
manufacturer to certify the electrical properties of the temperature
sensor. The third alternative codifies the common practice of replacing
temperature sensors quarterly. The fourth alternative allows for the
permanent installation of a redundant temperature sensor as close as
practicable to the process temperature sensor. The redundant sensors
must read within 25 degrees Fahrenheit of each other for thermal and
catalytic oxidizers.
2. What changed since proposal?
Comments were received on the temperature sensor validation
amendments requesting clarification on the requirements. The EPA has
clarified the requirements, as discussed below, in the final
rulemaking.
3. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters identified inconsistencies between 40 CFR 63.8 and the
POWC NESHAP. Specifically, the commenters noted that the proposed
amendments require ``validation'' whereas 40 CFR 63.8 requires
``calibration.'' The EPA proposed to remove the term ``calibration''
from the POWC NESHAP because temperature sensors such as thermocouples
do not typically have calibration procedures. To fix this
inconsistency, the EPA is finalizing changes to Table 2 for the 40 CFR
63.8(c)(3) entry to direct affected sources to 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(iv) for temperature sensor validation procedures in lieu
of calibration requirements. Additionally, the EPA is finalizing
changes to Table 2 for the 40 CFR 63.8(d)(1)-(2) entry to direct
affected sources to 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(5) for continuous parameter
monitoring system (CPMS) quality control procedures and to the 40 CFR
63.8(d)(3) entry to state that it does not apply, because 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(5) specifies the program of corrective action. Commenters
also questioned whether Table 2 requires a notification of performance
evaluation for temperature sensors under 40 CFR 63.8(e)(2). The EPA is
also finalizing changes to Table 2 to clarify notifications are not
required for temperature sensor validations.
Commenters provided background information on thermocouple accuracy
and calibrations and requested that the EPA adopt mechanical
validations as an option to verify temperature sensor operation. These
mechanical validations include visually inspecting the head and wiring
of the device and monitoring the function/non-function of the device.
Commenters explained that this type of validation is appropriate
because thermocouples typically fail instead of drifting and becoming
less accurate. In response to this comment, the EPA added mechanical
validations as an option for verifying temperature sensor operation in
the final rule.
Similarly, commenters requested that the requirement in 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(vi) for quarterly inspection of all components for
integrity and all electrical connections for continuity, oxidization,
and galvanic corrosion be removed. Commenters noted that this
requirement is redundant because electronic monitoring systems are
designed to alert facility personnel if a signal from the temperature
sensor is interrupted. The commenters suggested that the EPA simplify
the requirement to include only a quarterly inspection of thermocouple
components for proper connection and integrity and clarify that any
such inspection only applies to the temperature sensor and not the
entire oxidation system. The EPA did not intend to create redundant
burden with the proposed requirements. The Agency agrees with the
commenter and is requiring in the final rule a quarterly inspection of
the thermocouple components or to continuously operate an electronic
monitoring system designed to notify personnel if the temperature
sensor signal is interrupted at 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(vi).
Commenters supported the proposed options for testing the accuracy
of temperature sensors and requested clarification on whether the use
of dual-sensor thermocouples or the use of multiple sensors in the
oxidizer combustion chamber would meet the proposed requirements. The
Agency has added a new subsection to clarify that these options would
meet the finalized requirements. Additionally, the EPA reviewed the
proposed temperature sensor validation regulatory text and determined
that, as proposed, it was vague and sometimes inconsistent. For
example, the proposed amendments said to validate the temperature
sensor quarterly by following the applicable procedures in the
manufacturer's owner's manual. The EPA received additional information
and found that owner's manuals specified annual inspection procedures.
Also as proposed, facilities would need to quarterly validate by
permanently installing a redundant temperature sensor, which was vague
and confusing to affected sources. The EPA has amended 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(iv) to clarify each option for verifying that a
temperature sensor is operating properly and how frequently to perform
the verification. The EPA is finalizing the following verification
options:
Semiannually compare the temperature sensor to a NIST
traceable temperature measurement device;
annually validate the temperature sensor by following
applicable mechanical and electrical validation procedures in the
manufacturer's owner's manual;
annually request the temperature sensor manufacturer to
certify or re-certify electromotive force;
[[Page 41287]]
annually replace the temperature sensor with a new
certified temperature sensor;
permanently install a redundant temperature sensor as
close as practicable to the process temperature sensor; or
permanently install a temperature sensor with dual sensors
to account for the possibility of failure.
One commenter requested that the required accuracy of 2.5 percent
at 40 CFR part 63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(A) apply equally at 40 CFR part
63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(E) instead of 25 degrees Fahrenheit. The commenter
was not aware of any reason to specify different levels of accuracy
between the proposed validation methods. With this final action, the
EPA has changed the 25 degrees Fahrenheit requirement in 40 CFR
63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(E) to be 2.5 percent to be consistent with the
requirements of 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(iv)(A).
Commenters also requested that the requirement to calibrate the
chart recorder or data logger in section 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(10)(i) be
removed because it is not feasible to calibrate either device, and most
facilities now use an electronic signal to record temperature data for
compliance purposes, not a chart recorder. The EPA agrees and has
removed this statement from the regulatory text.

validation requirements and corresponding responses, see the memorandum
in the docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ)
Residual Risk and Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to
Public Comments on September 19, 2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the temperature senor calibration requirement?
The EPA proposed modifications to 40 CFR 63.3350(e) to allow
multiple alternative approaches to temperature sensor calibration to
address concerns raised by affected facilities prior to proposal. After
reviewing the public comments received, the Agency is clarifying the
requirements in this final rulemaking, as discussed above. These
amendments ensure that the temperature sensors are operating properly
to demonstrate continuous compliance with the emission standards.
H. Operating Parameter Clarification
1. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to clarify language in 40 CFR 63.3370 which
previously implied all deviations in operating parameters result in
non-compliance with the standard. Specifically, the EPA proposed at 40
CFR 63.3370(k)(5) to clarify that each 3-hour average operating
parameter that is outside of the operating limit range established
during a performance test should be assumed to have zero control and
all HAP must be assumed to be emitted for that period in the monthly
compliance calculation.
2. What changed since proposal?
The EPA is finalizing the clarification that a deviation from a 3-
hour average operating parameter is not a deviation of the standard,
unless the emission limitations for the month in which the deviation
occurred are exceeded. Based on public comment, the EPA has also added
the option in 40 CFR 63.3370(k)(5) for a facility to develop a control
destruction efficiency curve for use in determining compliance instead
of assuming zero control for all deviations. The EPA has also added
minor clarifications as discussed below.
3. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA's proposed clarification that
deviations in operating parameters are not automatically indicative of
non-compliance with the POWC standard. Commenters also stated that a
deviation from a 3-hour operating limit does not indicate non-
compliance because the standard is based on a monthly average. The EPA
agrees that the intent of the clarification was for operating
parameters of add-on control devices only, as the requirement was
placed in 40 CFR 63.3370(k)(5) which only applies to add-on control
devices and not coating lines using compliant coatings.
Several commenters disagreed with the EPA's proposal that each 3-
hour average operating parameter that is outside of the operating limit
range established during a performance test should be assumed to have
``zero control.'' Commenters asserted that there was no scientific
basis for this assumption and indicated that if a performance test
performed well above the minimum required destruction efficiency,
dropping below the established temperature may have no effect on the
destruction efficiency. Commenters recommended that the EPA allow
facilities to develop a control curve based on test data or engineering
data that documents the level of control achieved at temperatures lower
than the performance test established temperature. The EPA has
considered the commenters' suggestion and have added the option to
develop a control curve for add-on control devices at 40 CFR
63.3360(e)(4). Facilities must work with their permitting authority to
develop the control curve.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the operating parameter
clarification and responses, see the memorandum in the docket, National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web
Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and Technology
Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on September 19,
2019 Proposal.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the operating parameter clarification?
Operating parameters were established in the original POWC NESHAP
to aid in determining compliance, but operating parameters were not
intended to constitute a violation of the emission standard. For
example, one 3-hour average regenerative thermal oxidizer firebox
temperature below the setpoint established during the stack test would
not necessarily indicate a violation of the POWC emission standard for
the month, but it is a deviation of the operating parameter limit. The
EPA is finalizing, as proposed, language to clarify this distinction
with minor changes based on public comment.
I. IBR Under 1 CFR Part 51 for the POWC NESHAP
1. What did we propose?
In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA proposed to
incorporate by reference the following voluntary consensus standards
(VCS) into 40 CFR 63.14:
ASTM D2369-10 (Reapproved 2015)\e\, Standard Test Method
for Volatile Content of Coatings, IBR approved for 40 CFR 63.3360(c).
ASTM D2697-03 (Reapproved 2014), Standard Test Method for
Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings, IBR approved
for 40 CFR 63.3360(c).
ASTM 3960-98, Standard Practice for Determining Volatile
Organic Compound (VOC) Content of Paints and Related Coatings, IBR
approved for 40 CFR 63.3360(d).
ASTM D6093-97, (Reapproved 2016), Standard Test Method for
Percent
[[Page 41288]]
Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings Using a Helium
Gas Pycnometer, IBR approved for 40 CFR 63.3360(c).
ASTM D2111-10 (Reapproved 2015), Standard Test Methods for
Specific Gravity of Halogenated Organic Solvents and Their Admixtures,
IBR approved for 40 CFR 63.3360(c).
ASTM D1963-85 (Reapproved 1996), Standard Test Method for
Specific Gravity of Drying Oils, Varnishes, Resins, and Related
Materials at 25/25[deg]C (Withdrawn 2004), IBR approved for 40 CFR
63.3360(c).
2. What changed since proposal?
No changes to the proposed IBR were made since publication of the
proposal (84 FR 49405, September 19, 2019).
3. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
No comments were received on the proposed IBR of the standards into
40 CFR 63.14.
4. What is the rationale for our final approach and final decisions for
the IBR under 1 CFR part 51?
In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is
finalizing, as proposed, the IBR of the documents listed in section
IV.I.1 of this preamble.
J. Technical and Editorial Changes
1. Removal of OSHA-Defined Carcinogens Reference
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to amend sections 40 CFR 63.3360(c)(1)(i) and (3),
which describe how to demonstrate initial compliance with the emission
limitations using the compliant material option, to remove references
to OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4). The
reference to OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) is intended to specify which compounds must be included
in calculating total organic HAP content of a coating material if they
are present at 0.1 percent or greater by mass. The Agency proposed to
remove this reference because 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) has been amended
and no longer readily defines which compounds are carcinogens. The EPA
proposed to replace the references to OSHA-defined carcinogens and 29
CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) with a list (in proposed new Table 3 to Subpart
JJJJ of Part 63--List of Hazardous Air Pollutants That Must Be Counted
Relative to Determining Coating HAP Content if Present at 0.1 Percent
or More By Mass) of those organic HAP that must be included in
calculating total organic HAP content of a coating material if they are
present at 0.1 percent or greater by mass.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has changed the approach for the removal of the reference
to 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) based on public comment. The EPA is not
finalizing the proposed Table 3 to 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ, and is
finalizing a reference to appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.1200 where 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) was previously referenced.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Multiple commenters asked that the EPA delete the proposed Table 3
to 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ, and modify the proposed methodology
for determining the HAP content of coatings. Commenters pointed out
that 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) was not a list, but a list of references
for manufacturers and importers to use to classify chemicals.
Commenters asked that the POWC NESHAP reference the current OSHA Safety
Data Sheets (SDS) rule (29 CFR 1910.1200) instead of adding a static
list in the form of the proposed Table 3 to 40 CFR part 63, subpart
JJJJ. The EPA agrees the commenters' suggestion is a more-streamlined
solution for updating the OSHA reference and is not finalizing the
table in the final rule and has added the reference to appendix A to 29
CFR 1910.1200.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the OSHA-defined
carcinogens reference and the corresponding responses, see the
memorandum in the docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ)
Residual Risk and Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to
Public Comments on September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA has reviewed the comments received regarding the removal of
the OSHA-defined carcinogens language and agrees that appendix A to 29
CFR 1910.1200 is an appropriate replacement for the outdated 29 CFR
1910.1200(d)(4) reference. Given that the OSHA language that the POWC
proposal sought to replace is in appendix A, for the final POWC
amendment the EPA is finalizing the regulatory text at 40 CFR
63.3360(c)(1)(i) to be as follows:
(i) Include each organic HAP determined to be present at greater
than or equal to 0.1 mass percent for Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA)-defined carcinogens as specified in section A.6.4
of appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.1200 and greater than or equal to 1.0 mass
percent for other organic HAP compounds.
2. Clarification of Compliance Demonstration Options
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed an introductory paragraph and a new subsection to
clarify the compliance demonstration requirements in 40 CFR 63.3370. As
originally promulgated, it was not clear that compliance can be
demonstrated based on individual web coating lines, groups of web
coating lines, or all of the web coating lines located at an affected
facility. An introductory paragraph to 40 CFR 63.3370 was proposed to
clarify the intent that compliance can be demonstrated across the web
coating lines in a facility by grouping them or treating them
individually or a combination of both. Additionally, a new subsection
40 CFR 63.3370(r) was proposed to clarify that compliance with the
subpart can be demonstrated using a mass-balance approach. While the
compliance calculations included in 40 CFR 63.3370(b)-(p) are thorough,
there are instances where variables in the equations are not needed,
resulting in confusion by the regulated facilities and the regulating
agencies as to what is required to demonstrate compliance. The mass-
balance approach proposed in 40 CFR 63.3370(r) clarifies the original
intent of the rule.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA received comments suggesting minor edits to the proposed
language regarding the mass-balance compliance demonstration approach
and has incorporated these edits, as appropriate, as discussed below.
No changes were made to the introductory paragraph to 40 CFR 63.3370
and the EPA is finalizing this section, as proposed, in this action.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters expressed support for the proposed clarification that
compliance can be demonstrated across multiple lines. Commenters also
felt that this clarification reduces the potential for inconsistent
regulatory interpretations by sources and permitting agencies and makes
the POWC NESHAP consistent with other coating rules. The EPA
acknowledges the commenters' support and is finalizing the
clarification, as proposed.
[[Page 41289]]
Commenters noted that the EPA incorrectly stated procedures for
demonstrating compliance by mass-balance at 40 CFR 63.3370(r)(1)--the
mass of HAP emitted during the month should be divided by the mass
applied according to any of the procedures listed in 40 CFR
63.3320(b)(1)-(3). Commenters also suggested additional regulatory text
revisions to be consistent with proposed edits to other sections. The
EPA has reviewed these comments and agrees with the commenters
suggested edits to correct the mass-balance calculation and has done so
in this rulemaking.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the clarification of the
compliance demonstration options and the corresponding responses, see
the memorandum in the docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous
Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart
JJJJ) Residual Risk and Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response
to Public Comments on September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA proposed, and is finalizing, amendments to the regulatory
text to clarify that compliance can be demonstrated based on individual
web coating lines, groups of web coating lines, or all of the web
coating lines located at an affected facility. The EPA is finalizing
corrections to the mass balance calculation. Additionally, the EPA
proposed, and is finalizing, a new subsection in 40 CFR 63.3370(r) to
clarify the intent of the rule as a mass-balance approach of
demonstrating compliance. The clarification to the compliance
demonstration options were made to help reduce confusion among
regulated entities and regulating authorities.
3. Clarification of Coating Materials Definition
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to revise the coating material definition in 40
CFR 63.3310 to clarify that coating materials are liquid or semi-liquid
materials. Additionally, the EPA proposed to revise the web coating
line definition to clarify that coating materials are liquid or semi-
liquid.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has clarified in the definition of coating materials to
include hot melt adhesives and other hot melt materials.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA's proposed clarifications to the
definition of coating materials and further suggested that the EPA
revise the definition to ensure that it is not incorrectly interpreted
to exclude hot melt adhesives or coatings. The EPA agrees with the
commenters and hot melt materials are included in the revised
regulatory text in 40 CFR 63.3310 to reflect this.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the coating materials
definition and the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the
docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper
and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on
September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA is finalizing, as proposed, revisions to the coating
material definition in 40 CFR 63.3310 to clarify that coating materials
are liquid or semi-liquid materials and revisions to the web coating
line definition to clarify that coating materials are liquid or semi-
liquid. The EPA is also finalizing the clarification that hot melt
materials are included in the definition and that vapor deposition and
dry abrasive materials deposited onto a coated surface area are
excluded from the definition. These revisions will improve regulatory
clarity by confirming that the weight of solid materials should not be
accounted for in the compliance demonstration calculations, and that
vapor-deposition coating is not covered by this subpart.
4. Addition of Web Coating Line Usage Threshold
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to add a usage threshold to 40 CFR 63.3300(h),
similar to that in 40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO, that requires a web
coating line that coats both paper and another substrate, such as
fabric, to comply with the subpart that corresponds to the predominate
activity conducted. The EPA proposed to define predominant activity to
be 90 percent of the mass of substrate coated during the compliance
period. For example, a web coating line that coats 90 percent or more
of a paper substrate, and 10 percent or less of a fabric substrate,
would be subject to this subpart and not 40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO.
b. What changed since proposal?
Since proposal, the EPA has clarified that the predominant activity
should be determined on a calendar year basis.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters supported usage thresholds for converting lines that
coat both paper and another substrate. Commenters noted that the usage
of the term ``affected source'' in the proposal appears to be
inconsistent with the example because the POWC NESHAP is the collection
of all web coating lines. Additionally, commenters thought the term
compliance period could be interpreted to require a facility performing
different types of coating to determine which NESHAP applies on a
monthly basis. Commenters requested that the EPA clarify these issues.
The EPA agrees with the commenters and have edited the regulatory text
to clarify that predominant activity must be determined on a calendar
year basis.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the web coating line
threshold and the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the
docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper
and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on
September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA reviewed the public comments and added clarifying language
to the proposed usage threshold. This language was added to promote
regulatory certainty and reduce burden from sources that could be
subject to multiple NESHAP.
5. Addition of Printing Activity Exemption
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to add a printing activity exemption to 40 CFR
63.3300(i) which allows for modified web coating lines already subject
to this subpart to continue to demonstrate compliance with this
subpart, in lieu of demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart KK (Printing and Publishing NESHAP).
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has clarified the language in the printing activity
exemption to allow for existing and modified lines to be
[[Page 41290]]
subject to the POWC NESHAP in lieu of 40 CFR part 63, subpart KK.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Multiple commenters supported the EPA's proposed printing activity
exemption to allow for modified POWC lines already subject to the POWC
NESHAP to continue to demonstrate compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart JJJJ in lieu of demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart KK. Commenters suggested that this exemption also apply to
existing sources as well as modified sources (e.g., for POWC web
coating lines that already have a product and packaging rotogravure
print station and/or a wide-web flexographic print station). The
commenter noted that, as written, if during a single month the line
exceeds 5 percent of the total mass of materials applied at the print
station, the line applicability would permanently change to the
Printing and Publishing NESHAP. The EPA agrees with the commenters and
has clarified the regulatory text in this action, as appropriate.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the printing activity
exemption and the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the
docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper
and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on
September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
In this rulemaking, the EPA is finalizing a printing activity
exemption to 40 CFR 63.3300(i) which allows for modified and existing
web coating lines already subject to this subpart to continue to
demonstrate compliance with this subpart, in lieu of demonstrating
compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart KK (i.e., the Printing and
Publishing NESHAP). This exemption will reduce regulatory burden
without resulting in increased emissions.
6. Clarification of Testing Requirements
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to remove the ``by compound'' statement in 40 CFR
63.3320(b)(4) to clarify that the standard is 20 parts per million by
volume (ppmv) for the total of organic HAP emitted, not 20 ppmv for
each individual HAP emitted. This is consistent with the test methods
used in this subpart, which test for total HAP concentration.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA is finalizing the removal of ``by compound'' in 40 CFR
63.3220(b)(4) to clarify that the 20 ppmv standard applies to the total
of organic HAP emitted, not to each individual HAP. As part of our
review, the EPA found four additional instances of ``by compound'' in
40 CFR 63.3370(a)(5), (f), (f)(3), and (f)(3)(iii) that also needed to
be removed.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA's proposal to remove ``by compound''
in 40 CFR 63.3220(b)(4) to clarify that the 20 ppmv standard applies to
the total of organic HAP emitted, not to each individual HAP.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The removal of ``by compound'' makes the POWC NESHAP consistent
with the test methods referenced in the subpart, as they test for total
HAP concentration, not individual HAP compounds.
7. Applicability to Sources Using Only Non-HAP Coatings
a. What did we propose?
The EPA requested comment on changing the applicability of the POWC
NESHAP to exclude sources that only use non-HAP coatings but are
located at a major source to reduce regulatory burden. As identified
during the development of the risk modeling input file and discussed in
section III.C of the preamble to the proposed rule (84 FR 49406,
September 19, 2019), some facilities that utilize only non-HAP coatings
are subject to the POWC NESHAP because they perform web coating
operations and are a major source because of non-POWC source category
emissions. For example, a non-HAP coating line used to produce paper
towel cores may be located at an integrated pulp and paper facility
that is a major source because of emissions from the pulping
operations. This facility would be required to comply with the
requirements of 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ, even though the coatings
used contain no HAP, and, therefore, no HAP are emitted from the web
coating lines.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA received supportive comments regarding the change of
applicability to sources using only non-HAP coatings. The Agency has
reviewed the public comments and, instead of changing the applicability
of the subpart, is finalizing an exemption for reporting requirements
for these sources.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters supported the EPA's proposal to reduce regulatory burden
by excluding sources that are located at a major source of HAP but do
not use coatings that contain HAP for the POWC emission sources.
Commenters stated that the change will reduce regulatory burden without
increasing emissions and could incentivize sources to convert to non-
HAP coatings to avoid applicability of the POWC NESHAP, resulting in
emissions reductions. Commenters further suggested that the exclusion
is a logical step under the EPA's efforts to reduce regulatory burden
and is similar in key aspects to the rulemaking to rescind the EPA's
``once in, always in'' policy. Commenters suggested that the EPA
clarify that all of the subject coating lines at the facility must use
non-HAP coatings to qualify for the exclusion. The EPA has reviewed
these comments and has added regulatory text exempting sources that
only use non-HAP coatings on all of the subject web coating lines at
the facility from on-going compliance reporting requirements.
For detailed comment summaries regarding applicability to sources
only using non-HAP coatings and the corresponding responses, see the
memorandum in the docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ)
Residual Risk and Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to
Public Comments on September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA requested comment on changing the applicability of sources
using only non-HAP coatings and received comments supporting the
change. The EPA is finalizing an exemption to on-going reporting
requirements for these sources as it will reduce regulatory burden
without increasing emissions.
8. Oxidizer Temperature Monitoring
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed to add language to recognize that thermal
oxidizers can demonstrate compliance with the standard as long as the
3-hour average firebox temperature does not drop lower
[[Page 41291]]
than 50 degrees Fahrenheit below the average combustion temperature
established during the performance test to promote consistency between
the Pressure Sensitive Tape and Label Surface Coating Operations NSPS
(40 CFR part 60, subpart RR) and the POWC NESHAP, as well as to account
for temperature swings due to startup and/or shutdown of web coating
lines.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has made minor clarifications to the regulatory text to
promote consistency throughout the subpart and has added similar
language for catalytic oxidizers.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters were supportive of the EPA's proposed language for
thermal oxidizers and requested that it be included for catalytic
oxidizers as well. Additionally, commenters noted that the Pressure
Sensitive Tape and Label Surface Coating Operations NSPS allows for
setting the minimum temperature drop across the catalyst bed at 80
percent of the average temperature difference during the most recent
performance test and requested that this language be added to promote
consistency between the two rules. The Agency has reviewed the
commenters suggestions and agree that it is appropriate to add the
temperature language for catalytic oxidizers. To ensure complete
combustion, the EPA also added a requirement that the catalyst's
minimum temperature must always be 50 degrees Fahrenheit above the
catalyst's ignition temperature.
Commenters also suggested edits to promote consistency throughout
the subpart as it relates to the temperature language. The EPA has
reviewed these suggestions and made edits to the regulatory text in
this action, as appropriate.
For detailed comment summaries regarding the oxidizer temperature
monitoring requirements and the corresponding responses, see the
memorandum in the docket, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ)
Residual Risk and Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to
Public Comments on September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA proposed to add language to recognize that thermal
oxidizers can demonstrate compliance with the standard as long as the
3-hour average firebox temperature does not drop lower than 50 degrees
Fahrenheit below the average combustion temperature established during
the performance test to promote consistency between the Pressure
Sensitive Tape and Label Surface Coating Operations NSPS and the POWC
NESHAP, as well as to account for temperature swings due to startup
and/or shutdown of web coating lines. After reviewing the public
comments, the EPA has added the same requirements to catalytic
oxidizers. In addition, the EPA has added language similar to that in
the Pressure Sensitive Tape and Label Surface Coating Operations NSPS
to allow for setting the minimum temperature drop across the catalyst
bed at 80 percent of the average temperature difference during the most
recent performance test. To ensure complete combustion, the EPA also
added a requirement that the catalyst's minimum temperature must always
be 50 degrees Fahrenheit above the catalyst's ignition temperature.
9. Compliance Report Content
a. What did we propose?
The EPA proposed new reporting requirements at 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)
that would require facilities to record data for failures to meet an
applicable standard, estimate the quantity of each regulated pollutant
over any emission limit and a description of the method used, and
document any actions taken to minimize emissions.
b. What changed since proposal?
The EPA has revised the compliance report content requirements in
40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2) to clarify what should be reported.
c. What are the key comments and what are our responses?
Commenters noted that the new reporting requirements should be
eliminated because they go beyond the General Provisions at 40 CFR
63.10 and, because compliance is determined monthly, short deviations
are not likely to cause excess emissions. Commenters further noted that
the proposed additions are not relevant to a rule where compliance is
not demonstrated on a short-term basis. The EPA has reviewed the
commenters concerns and agree that the language is not appropriate for
40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ. The EPA has revised the requirements in
40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2) to clarify what is required to be reported and has
also revised the requirements in 40 CFR 63.3410(c) to clarify what
records should be maintained.
Additionally, while the EPA was reviewing the report content
requirements, it became clear that the requirements were confusing as
to what should be reported for facilities using compliant coatings
versus facilities using add-on controls. The EPA has clarified that 40
CFR 63.3400(c)(2)(v) applies to facilities using only compliant
coatings (i.e., those that do not use a CMS). The EPA also clarified
that 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)(vi) applies to facilities that have add-on
control devices (i.e., those that use a CPMS or a continuous emission
monitoring system). These amendments should improve regulatory clarity.
For detailed comment summaries regarding compliance report content
and the corresponding responses, see the memorandum in the docket,
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and
Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) Residual Risk and
Technology Review, Final Amendments--Response to Public Comments on
September 19, 2019 Proposal.
d. What is the rationale for our final approach?
The EPA proposed new reporting requirements at 40 CFR 63.3400(c)(2)
that would require facilities to record data for failures to meet an
applicable standard, estimate the quantity of each regulated pollutant
over any emission limit and a description of the method used, and
document any actions taken to minimize emissions to be consistent with
recent RTR rulemakings. After reviewing the comments received during
the public comment period, as well as the regulatory language, it was
determined that these requirements were not appropriate for 40 CFR part
63, subpart JJJJ because compliance is demonstrated on a monthly basis
and therefore these requirements are not being finalized. In response
to comments, amendments were added to the compliance report contents
section to clarify what should be reported and by whom.
10. Other Amendments
The following additional changes were proposed that address
technical and editorial corrections:
Revised the references to the other NESHAP in 40 CFR
63.3300 to clarify the appropriate subparts;
revised 40 CFR 3350(c) to clarify that bypass valves on
always-controlled work stations should be monitored;
revised 40 CFR 63.3350(e)(4) to clarify 3-hour averages
should be block averages, consistent with the requirements in Table 1
to Subpart JJJJ of Part 63;
[[Page 41292]]
revised the monitoring requirements section in 40 CFR
63.3360 to clarify what constitutes representative conditions;
revised the recordkeeping requirements section in 40 CFR
63.3410 to include the requirement to show continuous compliance after
effective date of regulation;
revised the terminology in the delegation of authority
section in 40 CFR 63.3420 to match the definitions in 40 CFR 63.90;
revised the General Provisions applicability table (Table
2 to Subpart JJJJ of Part 63) to provide more detail and to make it
align with those sections of the General Provisions that have been
amended or reserved over time; and
renumbered the equations throughout the subpart for
regulatory clarity.
No comments were received on these other amendments and, therefore,
the EPA is finalizing them as proposed.
V. Summary of Cost, Environmental, and Economic Impacts and Additional
Analyses Conducted
A. What are the affected facilities?
The POWC source category includes any facility that is located at a
major source and is engaged in the coating of paper, plastic film,
metallic foil, and other web surfaces. All the coating lines at a
subject facility are defined as one affected source. Any new source
means any affected source for which construction or reconstruction was
commenced after the date the EPA first proposed regulations
establishing a NESHAP applicable to the source (i.e., for the POWC
source category, September 13, 2000). An existing source means any
source other than a new source. Generally, an additional line at an
existing facility is considered part of the existing affected source.
New affected sources are new lines installed at new facilities or at a
facility with no prior POWC operations.
There are currently 168 facilities in the United States that are
subject to the POWC NESHAP. The EPA is aware of one new affected source
that is under construction that will be subject to the POWC NESHAP in
the future. The EPA is not aware of any other facilities that are under
construction or are planned to be constructed which would be considered
``new facilities'' under the POWC NESHAP.
B. What are the air quality impacts?
At the current level of control, estimated emissions of total HAP
are approximately 3,870 tpy. Compared to pre-MACT levels, this
represents a significant reduction of HAP for the category. When the
POWC NESHAP was finalized in 2002, the EPA estimated the annual
baseline HAP emissions from the source category to be approximately
42,000 tpy (67 FR 72331, December 4, 2002).
The amendments will require all 168 major sources with equipment
subject to the POWC NESHAP to operate without the SSM exemption.
Eliminating the SSM exemption will reduce emissions by requiring
facilities to meet the applicable standard during SSM periods; however,
the EPA is unable to quantify the specific emission reductions
associated with eliminating the exemption. The requirement for repeat
performance testing once every 5 years for thermal oxidizers and the
alternative of annual catalyst activity testing for catalytic oxidizers
will ensure that the control device is operating correctly and may
reduce emissions, but no method for accurately estimating such
emissions reduction is available.
Indirect or secondary air emissions impacts are impacts that would
result from the increased electricity usage associated with the
operation of control devices (i.e., increased secondary emissions of
criteria pollutants from power plants). Energy impacts consist of the
electricity and steam needed to operate control devices and other
equipment that would be required under this final rule. The EPA expects
no secondary air emissions impacts or energy impacts from this
rulemaking.
For further information, see the memorandum titled Revised Cost,
Environmental, and Energy Impacts of Regulatory Options for the Paper
and Other Web Coatings Risk and Technology Review, in the docket for
this action (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416).
C. What are the cost impacts?
Startup and shutdown are considered normal operations for most
facilities subject to the POWC NESHAP. The EPA does not believe
removing the SSM exemption will result in additional incurred costs.
As discussed in detail in the memorandum titled Revised Cost,
Environmental, and Energy Impacts of Regulatory Options for the Paper
and Other Web Coatings Risk and Technology Review, it is estimated that
65 oxidizers will have to perform repeat performance testing. Fifty
eight of these 65 are thermal oxidizers, and 3 are catalytic oxidizers.
For costing purposes, it was assumed that repeat emissions performance
testing will be performed every 5 years on the thermal oxidizers, and
annual catalyst activity testing will be conducted on the catalytic
oxidizers. The estimated cost for an inlet-outlet EPA Method 25A
performance test (with electronic reporting of results) is $28,000 per
test and the estimated cost for annual catalyst activity testing is
$1,000, for an estimated nationwide cost of $1,750,000 (2018$) every 5
years. The electronic reporting requirement is not expected to require
any additional labor hours to prepare, compared to the paper semi-
annual compliance reports that are already prepared. Therefore, the
costs associated with the electronic reporting requirement are zero.
D. What are the economic impacts?
The economic impact analysis is designed to inform decision makers
about the potential economic consequences of a regulatory action. To
assess the potential impact, the largest cost expected to be
experienced in any one year is compared to the total sales for the
ultimate owner of the affected facilities to estimate the total burden
for each facility.
For the final revisions to the POWC NESHAP, the 168 affected
facilities are owned by 91 different parent companies, and the total
costs associated with the final requirements range from less than
0.000001 to 3 percent of annual sales revenue per ultimate owner. These
costs are not expected to result in a significant market impact,
regardless of whether they are passed on to the purchaser or absorbed
by the firms.
The EPA also prepared a small business screening assessment to
determine whether any of the identified affected entities are small
entities, as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Twenty-
nine of the facilities potentially affected by the final revisions to
the POWC NESHAP are small entities. However, the costs associated with
the final requirements for the affected small entities range from
0.0003 to 3 percent of annual sales revenues per ultimate owner; there
is one facility with costs of 1.4 percent and one facility with costs
of 3 percent of annual sales revenues per ultimate owner. Therefore,
there are no significant economic impacts on a substantial number of
small entities from these final amendments.
E. What are the benefits?
Because these final amendments are not considered economically
significant, as defined by Executive Order 12866, and because we did
not estimate emission reductions associated with the
[[Page 41293]]
final revisions, the EPA did not estimate any benefits from reducing
emissions.
F. What analysis of environmental justice did we conduct?
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) establishes
federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision
directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission
by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
To examine the potential for any environmental justice issues that
might be associated with the source category, the EPA performed a
demographic analysis, which is an assessment of risk to individual
demographic groups of the populations living within 5 kilometers (km)
and within 50 km of the facilities. In the analysis, the EPA evaluated
the distribution of HAP-related cancer and noncancer risk from the POWC
source category across different social, demographic, and economic
groups within the populations living near facilities identified as
having the highest risks.\6\ The methodology and the results of the
demographic analysis are presented in a technical report, Risk and
Technology Review--Analysis of Demographic Factors for Populations
Living Near Paper and Other Web Coating Facilities, available in the
docket for this action (Docket ID Item No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416-0088).
These results, for various demographic groups, are based on the
estimated risk from actual emissions levels for the population living
within 50 km of the facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ Demographic groups included in the analysis are: White,
African American, Native American, other races and multiracial,
Hispanic or Latino, children 17 years of age and under, adults 18 to
64 years of age, adults 65 years of age and over, adults without a
high school diploma, people living below the poverty level, people
living 2 times the poverty level, and linguistically isolated
people.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The results of the POWC source category demographic analysis
indicate that emissions from the source category expose approximately
4,300 people to a cancer risk at or above 1-in-1 million and no one is
exposed to a chronic noncancer TOSHI greater than 1. The specific
demographic results indicate that the percentage of the population
potentially impacted by emissions is greater than its corresponding
national percentage for the white population (86 percent for the source
category compared to 62 percent nationwide) and for the below-poverty-
level population (17 percent compared to 14 percent nationwide).
The risks due to HAP emissions from this source category are low
for all populations. Furthermore, the EPA does not expect this final
rule to achieve significant reductions in HAP emissions. Therefore, the
EPA concludes that this final rule will not have disproportionately
high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority or
low-income populations because it does not affect the level of
protection provided to human health or the environment. However, this
final rule will provide additional benefits to these demographic groups
by improving the monitoring, compliance, and implementation of the
NESHAP.
G. What analysis of children's environmental health did we conduct?
The EPA does not believe the environmental health or safety risks
addressed by this action present a disproportionate risk to children.
The results of the POWC source category demographic analysis indicate
that emissions from the source category expose approximately 4,300
people to a cancer risk at or above 1-in-1 million and no one is
exposed to a chronic noncancer TOSHI greater than 1. The distribution
of the population with risks above 1-in-1 million is 20 percent for
ages 0 to 17, 62 percent for ages 18 to 64, and 17 percent for ages 65
and up. Children ages 0 to 17 constitute 23 percent of the population
nationwide. Therefore, the analysis shows that actual emissions from 40
CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ facilities have a slightly smaller impact on
children ages 0 to 17. This action's health and risk assessments are
contained in sections III and IV of the preamble to the proposed rule
and further documented in the risk report titled Residual Risk
Assessment for the Paper and Other Web Source Category in Support of
the 2020 Risk and Technology Review Final Rule, which can be found in
the docket for this action (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416).
VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Additional information about these statutes and Executive Orders
can be found at https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations/laws-and-executive-orders.
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review
This action is not a significant regulatory action and was,
therefore, not submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
for review.
B. Executive Order 13771: Reducing Regulations and Controlling
Regulatory Costs
This action is not an Executive Order 13771 regulatory action
because this action is not significant under Executive Order 12866.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
The information collection activities in this proposed rule have
been submitted for approval to OMB under the PRA. The Information
Collection Request (ICR) document that the EPA prepared has been
assigned EPA ICR number 1951.09, OMB Control No. 2060-0511. You can
find a copy of the ICR in the docket for this rule, and it is briefly
summarized here. The information collection requirements are not
enforceable until OMB approves them.
The POWC NESHAP applies to existing facilities and new POWC
facilities. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial
notifications, notifications of compliance status, performance tests,
performance evaluation reports, and periodic reports by the owners/
operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any malfunction in
the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the
monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and
records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of
all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. This information is being
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ.
Respondents/affected entities: POWC facilities.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR Part 63,
Subpart JJJJ).
Estimated number of respondents: 170.
Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 17,300 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $2,735,000 (per year), includes $765,000
annualized capital and operation and maintenance costs.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to
[[Page 41294]]
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently
valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for the EPA's
regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9. When OMB approves
this ICR, the Agency will announce that approval in the Federal
Register and publish a technical amendment to 40 CFR part 9 to display
the OMB control number for the approved information collection
activities contained in this final rule.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
I certify that this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the RFA. The
small entities subject to the requirements of this action and the
annualized costs associated with the final requirements in this action
for the affected small entities are described in section V.D above.
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)
This action does not contain any unfunded mandate of $100 million
or more as described in UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538. The action imposes no
enforceable duty on any state, local, or tribal governments or the
private sector.
F. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This action 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.
G. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
This action does not have tribal implications as specified in
Executive Order 13175. It will not have substantial direct effects on
tribal governments, on the relationship between the federal government
and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the federal government and Indian tribes. No tribal governments
own facilities subject to the NESHAP. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does
not apply to this action.
H. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it is
not economically significant as defined in Executive Order 12866, and
because the EPA does not believe the environmental health risks or
safety risks addressed by this action present a disproportionate risk
to children. This action's health and risk assessments are contained in
sections III and IV of this preamble and further documented in the risk
report titled Residual Risk Assessment for the Paper and Other Web
Source Category in Support of the 2020 Risk and Technology Review Final
Rule, which can be found in the docket for this action (Docket ID No.
EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416).
I. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 because it is
not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
J. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) and 1 CFR
Part 51
This action involves technical standards. The EPA is finalizing the
following six VCS as alternatives to EPA Method 24 and is incorporating
them by reference for the first time in the finalized amendments:
ASTM D2369-10 (Reapproved 2015)\e\, ``Standard Test Method
for Volatile Content of Coatings.'' This test method describes a
procedure used for the determination of the weight percent volatile
content of solvent-borne and waterborne coatings.
ASTM D2697-03 (Reapproved 2014), ``Standard Test Method
for Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings.'' This
test method is applicable to the determination of the volume of
nonvolatile matter in coatings.
ASTM D3960-98, ``Standard Practice for Determining
Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) Content of Paints and Related
Coatings.'' This test method is used for the measurement of the VOC
content of solvent borne and waterborne paints and related coatings.
This method is an acceptable alternative to EPA Method 24 because the
regulation allows for the use of VOC content as a surrogate for HAP.
ASTM D6093-97 (Reapproved 2016), ``Standard Test Method
for Percent Volume Nonvolatile Matter in Clear or Pigmented Coatings
Using a Helium Gas Pycnometer.'' This test method is used for the
determination of the percent volume nonvolatile matter in clear and
pigmented coatings.
ASTM D2111-10 (Reapproved 2015), ``Standard Test Methods
for Specific Gravity of Halogenated Organic Solvents and Their
Admixtures.'' This test method is used for the determination of the
specific gravity of halogenated organic solvents and solvent
admixtures.
ASTM D1963-85 (Reapproved 1996), ``Standard Test Method
for Specific Gravity of Drying Oils, Varnishes, Resins, and Related
Materials at 25[deg] C.'' This test method is used for the
determination of the specific gravity of drying oils, varnishes, alkyd
resins, fatty acids, and related materials. This method is an
acceptable alternative to EPA Method 24 for density only and may not be
valid for all coatings and is valid at the designated temperature (25
degrees Celsius). This standard was withdrawn in 2004 with no
replacement; there is no later version.
These standards are reasonably available from the American Society
for Testing and Materials (ASTM), 100 Barr Harbor Drive, Post Office
Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. See https://www.astm.org/.
While the EPA has identified another 19 VCS as being potentially
applicable to this NESHAP, we have decided not to use these VCS in this
rulemaking. The use of these VCS would not be practical due to lack of
equivalency, documentation, validation date, and other important
technical and policy considerations. See the memorandum titled
Voluntary Consensus Standard Results for National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Paper and Other Web Coating, in the
docket for this rule for the reasons for these determinations (Docket
ID Item No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0416-0068).
The revised regulatory text references ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981 (40
CFR 63.3360) and ASTM D5087-02 (40 CFR 63.3165). These standards were
previously approved for this section. That approval continues without
change.
Under 40 CFR 63.7(f) and 40 CFR 63.8(f) of subpart A of the General
Provisions, a source may apply to the EPA for permission to use
alternative test methods or alternative monitoring requirements in
place of any required testing methods, performance specifications, or
procedures in the final rule or any amendments.
K. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations
The EPA believes that this action does not have disproportionately
high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority
populations, low income populations, and/or indigenous peoples, as
specified in Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). The
documentation for this decision is
[[Page 41295]]
contained in section V.F of this preamble and the technical report,
Risk and Technology Review--Analysis of Demographic Factors for
Populations Living Near Paper and Other Web Coating Facilities, which
is available in the docket for this action (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-
2018-0416).
L. Congressional Review Act (CRA)
This action is subject to the CRA, and the EPA will submit a rule
report to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of
the United States. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).

3. Section 63.3300 is amended by:
0
a. Revising the introductory text and paragraphs (a), (b), (d), (e) and
(f); and
0
b. Adding paragraphs (h) through (j).
The revisions and additions read as follows:
Sec. 63.3300 Which of my emission sources are affected by this
subpart?
The affected source subject to this subpart is the collection of
all web coating lines at your facility. This includes web coating lines
engaged in the coating of metal webs that are used in flexible
packaging, and web coating lines engaged in the coating of fabric
substrates for use in pressure sensitive tape and abrasive materials.
Web coating lines specified in paragraphs (a) through (g) of this
section are not part of the affected source of this subpart.
(a) Any web coating line that is stand-alone equipment under
subpart KK of this part (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Printing and Publishing Industry) which the
owner or operator includes in the affected source under subpart KK.
(b) Any web coating line that is a product and packaging
rotogravure or wide-web flexographic press under subpart KK of this
part (NESHAP for the Printing and Publishing Industry) which is
included in the affected source under subpart KK.
* * * * *
(d) Any web coating line subject to subpart EE of this part (NESHAP
for Magnetic Tape Manufacturing Operations).
(e) Any web coating line subject to subpart SSSS of this part
(NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Coil).
(f) Any web coating line subject to subpart OOOO of this part
(NESHAP for the Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of Fabrics and Other
Textiles). This includes any web coating line that coats both a paper
or other web substrate and a fabric or other textile substrate, except
for a fabric substrate used for pressure sensitive tape and abrasive
materials.
* * * * *
(h) Any web coating line that coats both paper or a web, and
another substrate such as fabric, may comply with the subpart of this
part that applies to the predominant activity conducted on the affected
source. Predominant activity for this subpart is 90 percent of the mass
of substrate coated during the compliance period. For example, a web
coating line that coats 90 percent or more of a paper substrate, and 10
percent or less of a fabric or other textile substrate, would be
subject to this subpart and not subpart OOOO of this part. You may use
data for any reasonable time period of at least one year in determining
the relative amount of coating activity, as long as they are expected
to represent the way the source will continue to operate in the future.
You must demonstrate and document the predominant activity annually.
(i) Any web coating line subject to this part that is modified to
include printing activities, may continue to demonstrate compliance
with this part, in lieu of demonstrating compliance with subpart KK of
this part. Any web coating line with product and packaging rotogravure
print station(s) and/or a wide-web flexographic print station(s) that
is subject to this subpart may elect to continue demonstrating
compliance with this subpart in lieu of subpart KK of this part, if the
mass of the materials applied to the line's print station(s) in
[[Page 41296]]
a month ever exceed 5 percent of the total mass of materials applied
onto the line during the same period.
(j) If all of the subject web coating lines at your facility
utilize non-HAP coatings, you can become exempt from the reporting
requirements of this subpart, provided you submit a one-time report as
required in Sec. 63.3370(s) to your permitting authority documenting
the use of only non-HAP coatings.
0
4. Section 63.3310 is amended by revising the definitions of ``coating
material(s)'' and ``web coating line'' to read as follows:
Sec. 63.3310 What definitions are used in this subpart?
* * * * *
Coating material(s) means all liquid or semi-liquid materials
(including the solids fraction of those materials as applied), such as
inks, varnishes, adhesives (including hot melt adhesives or other hot
melt materials), primers, solvents, reducers, and other materials
applied to a substrate via a web coating line. Materials used to form a
substrate or applied via vapor deposition, and dry abrasive materials
deposited on top of a coated web, are not considered coating materials.
* * * * *
Web coating line means any number of work stations, of which one or
more applies a continuous layer of liquid or semi-liquid coating
material across the entire width or any portion of the width of a web
substrate, and any associated curing/drying equipment between an unwind
or feed station and a rewind or cutting station.
* * * * *
0
5. Section 63.3320 is amended by revising paragraphs (b) introductory
text and (b)(4) to read as follows:
The revisions read as follows:
Sec. 63.3320 What emission standards must I meet?
* * * * *
(b) You must limit organic HAP emissions to the level specified in
paragraph (b)(1), (2), (3), or (4) of this section for all periods of
operation, including startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM).
* * * * *
(4) If you use an oxidizer to control organic HAP emissions,
operate the oxidizer such that an outlet organic HAP concentration of
no greater than 20 parts per million by volume (ppmv) on a dry basis is
achieved and the efficiency of the capture system is 100 percent.
* * * * *
0
6. Section 63.3321 is amended by revising paragraph (a) to read as
follows:
Sec. 63.3321 What operating limits must I meet?
(a) For any web coating line or group of web coating lines for
which you use add-on control devices to demonstrate compliance with the
emission standards in Sec. 63.3320, unless you use a solvent recovery
system and conduct a liquid-liquid material balance, you must meet the
operating limits specified in Table 1 to this subpart or according to
paragraph (b) of this section. These operating limits apply to emission
capture systems and control devices used to demonstrate compliance with
this subpart, and you must establish the operating limits during the
performance test according to the requirements in Sec. 63.3360(e)(3).
You must meet the operating limits at all times after you establish
them.
* * * * *
0
7. Section 63.3330 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 63.3330 When must I comply?
(a) For affected sources which commenced construction or
reconstruction prior to September 19, 2019, you must comply as follows:
(1) Before July 9, 2021, the affected coating operation(s) must be
in compliance with the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.3320 at
all times, except during periods of SSM. On and after July 9, 2021, the
affected coating operation(s) must be in compliance with the applicable
emission limit in Sec. 63.3320 at all times, including periods of SSM.
(2) A periodic emissions performance test must be performed by July
9, 2023, or within 60 months of the previous test, whichever is later,
and subsequent tests no later than 60 months thereafter, as required in
Sec. 63.3360. Performance testing for HAP or VOC destruction
efficiency required by state agencies can be used to meet this
requirement.
(3) After July 9, 2021, you must electronically submit initial
notifications, notifications of compliance status, performance
evaluation reports, and performance test reports, as required in Sec.
63.3400. Semiannual compliance reports must be submitted electronically
for the first full semiannual compliance period after the template has
been available in the Compliance and Emissions Data Reporting Interface
(CEDRI) for 1 year.
(b) For new affected sources which commenced construction or
reconstruction after September 19, 2019, you must comply as indicated
in paragraphs (b)(1) through (3) of this section. Existing affected
sources which have undergone reconstruction as defined in Sec. 63.2
are subject to the requirements for new affected sources. The costs
associated with the purchase and installation of air pollution control
equipment are not considered in determining whether the existing
affected source has been reconstructed. Additionally, the costs of
retrofitting and replacing of equipment that is installed specifically
to comply with this subpart are not considered reconstruction costs.
(1) The coating operation(s) must be in compliance with the
applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.3320 at all times, including
periods of SSM, starting July 9, 2020, or immediately upon startup,
whichever is later.
(2) You must complete any initial performance test required in
Sec. 63.3360 within the time limits specified in Sec. 63.7(a)(2), and
subsequent tests no later than 60 months thereafter.
(3) You must electronically submit initial notifications,
notifications of compliance status, performance evaluation reports, and
performance test reports as required in Sec. 63.3400 starting July 9,
2020, or immediately upon startup, whichever is later. Semiannual
compliance reports must be submitted electronically for the first full
semiannual compliance period after the template has been available in
CEDRI for 1 year.
0
8. Section 63.3340 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 63.3340 What general requirements must I meet to comply with
the standards?
(a) Before July 9, 2021, for each existing source for which
construction or reconstruction commenced on or before September 19,
2019, you must be in compliance with the emission limits and operating
limits in this subpart at all times, except during periods of SSM. On
and after July 9, 2021, for each such source you must be in compliance
with the emission limits and operating limits in this subpart at all
times. For new and reconstructed sources for which construction or
reconstruction commenced after September 19, 2019, you must be in
compliance with the emission limits and operating limits in this
subpart at all times, starting July 9, 2020, or immediately upon
startup, whichever is later.
(b) For affected sources as of September 19, 2019, before July 9,
2021, you must always operate and maintain your affected source,
including all air pollution control and monitoring equipment you use
for purposes of complying with this subpart, according to the
provisions in Sec. 63.6(e)(1)(i). On
[[Page 41297]]
and after July 9, 2021, for such sources and on July 9, 2020, or
immediately upon startup, whichever is later, for new or reconstructed
affected sources, you must always operate and maintain your affected
source, including associated air pollution control equipment and
monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air
pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. The general duty
to minimize emissions does not require the owner or operator to make
any further efforts to reduce emissions if levels required by the
applicable standard have been achieved. Determination of whether a
source is operating in compliance with operation and maintenance
requirements will be based on information available to the
Administrator which may include, but is not limited to, monitoring
results, review of operation and maintenance procedures, review of
operation and maintenance records, and inspection of the source.
(c) You must conduct each performance test required by Sec.
63.3360 according to the requirements in Sec. 63.3360(e)(2) 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 startup,
shutdown, and nonoperation do not constitute representative conditions.
You may not conduct performance tests during periods of malfunction.
You must record the process information that is necessary to document
operating conditions during the test and explain why the conditions
represent normal operation. Upon request, you shall make available to
the Administrator such records as may be necessary to determine the
conditions of performance tests.
(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. Representative conditions
exclude periods of startup and shutdown. You may not conduct
performance tests during periods of malfunction. 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.
(d) Table 2 to this subpart specifies the provisions of subpart A
of this part that apply if you are subject to subpart JJJJ.

The revisions and addition read as follows:
Sec. 63.3350 If I use a control device to comply with the emission
standards, what monitoring must I do?
* * * * *
(b) Following the date on which the initial or periodic performance
test of a control device is completed to demonstrate continuing
compliance with the standards, you must monitor and inspect each
capture system and each control device used to comply with Sec.
63.3320. You must install and operate the monitoring equipment as
specified in paragraphs (c) and (f) of this section.
(c) Bypass and coating use monitoring. If you own or operate web
coating lines with intermittently-controlled work stations, you must
monitor bypasses of the control device and the mass of each coating
material applied at the work station during any such bypass. If using a
control device for complying with the requirements of this subpart, you
must demonstrate that any coating material applied on a never-
controlled work station or an intermittently-controlled work station
operated in bypass mode is allowed in your compliance demonstration
according to Sec. 63.3370(o) and (p). The bypass monitoring must be
conducted using at least one of the procedures in paragraphs (c)(1)
through (4) of this section for each work station and associated dryer.
* * * * *
(d) * * *
(1) * * *
(iii) You must have valid data from at least 90 percent of the
hours when the process is operated. Invalid or missing data should be
reported as a deviation in the semiannual compliance report.
* * * * *
(e) Continuous parameter monitoring system (CPMS). If you are using
a control device to comply with the emission standards in Sec.
63.3320, you must install, operate, and maintain each CPMS specified in
paragraphs (e)(10) and (11) and (f) of this section according to the
requirements in paragraphs (e)(1) through (9) of this section. You must
install, operate, and maintain each CPMS specified in paragraph (c) of
this section according to paragraphs (e)(5) through (8) of this
section.
* * * * *
(2) You must have valid data from at least 90 percent of the hours
when the process operated.
* * * * *
(4) You must determine the block 3-hour average of all recorded
readings for each operating period. To calculate the average for each
3-hour averaging period, you must have at least two of three of the
hourly averages for that period using only average values that are
based on valid data (i.e., not from out-of-control periods).
(5) Except for temperature sensors, you must develop a quality

written procedures on record for the life of the affected source or
until the affected source is no longer subject to the provisions of
this part, to be made available for inspection, upon request, by the
Administrator. If the performance evaluation plan is revised, the owner
or operator shall keep previous (i.e., superseded) versions of the
performance evaluation plan on record to be made available for
inspection, upon request, by the Administrator, for a period of 5 years
after each revision to the plan. For temperature sensors, you must
follow the requirements in Sec. 63.3350(e)(10).

applicable, determine the mass
of volatile matter retained in
the coated web or otherwise
not emitted to the atmosphere
according to Sec.
63.3360(g).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) Control Device. If you are using a control device to comply
with the emission standards in Sec. 63.3320, you are not required to
conduct a performance test to demonstrate compliance if one or more of
the criteria in paragraphs (b)(1) through (3) of this section are met.
(1) The control device is equipped with continuous emission
monitoring systems (CEMS) for determining inlet and outlet total
organic volatile matter concentration and meeting the requirements of
Performance Specification 6, 8, or 9 in Appendix B to 40 CFR Part 60
and capture efficiency
[[Page 41299]]
has been determined in accordance with the requirements of this subpart
such that an overall organic HAP control efficiency can be calculated,
and the CEMS are used to demonstrate continuous compliance in
accordance with Sec. 63.3350; or
(2) You have met the requirements of Sec. 63.7(h) (for waiver of
performance testing); or
(3) The control device is a solvent recovery system and you comply
by means of a monthly liquid-liquid material balance.
(c) * * *
(1) * * *
(i) Include each organic HAP determined to be present at greater
than or equal to 0.1 mass percent for Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA)-defined carcinogens as specified in section A.6.4
of appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.1200 and greater than or equal to 1.0 mass
percent for other organic HAP compounds.
* * * * *
(2) Method 24. For coatings, determine the volatile organic content
as mass fraction of nonaqueous volatile matter and use it as a
substitute for organic HAP using Method 24 of appendix A-7 to 40 CFR
part 60. The Method 24 determination may be performed by the
manufacturer of the coating and the results provided to you. One of the
voluntary consensus standards in paragraphs (c)(2)(i) through (v) of
this section may be used as an alternative to using Method 24.
(i) ASTM D1963-85 (Reapproved 1996), (incorporated by reference,
see Sec. 63.14);
(ii) ASTM D2111-10 (Reapproved 2015), (incorporated by reference,
see Sec. 63.14);
(iii) ASTM D2369-10 (Reapproved 2015)\e\, (incorporated by
reference, see Sec. 63.14);
(iv) ASTM D2697-03 (Reapproved 2014), (incorporated by reference,
see Sec. 63.14); and
(v) ASTM D6093-97 (Reapproved 2016), (incorporated by reference,
see Sec. 63.14).
(3) Formulation data. You may use formulation data to determine the
organic HAP mass fraction of a coating material. Formulation data may
be provided to the owner or operator by the manufacturer of the
material. In the event of an inconsistency between Method 311 (appendix
A to this part) test data and a facility's formulation data, and the
Method 311 test value is higher, the Method 311 data will govern.
Formulation data may be used provided that the information represents
all organic HAP present at a level equal to or greater than 0.1 percent
for OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in section A.6.4 of appendix
A to 29 CFR 1910.1200 and equal to or greater than 1.0 percent for
other organic HAP compounds in any raw material used.
(4) As-applied organic HAP mass fraction. If the as-purchased
coating material is applied to the web without any solvent or other
material added, then the as-applied organic HAP mass fraction is equal
to the as-purchased organic HAP mass fraction. Otherwise, the as-
applied organic HAP mass fraction must be calculated using Equation 4
of Sec. 63.3370.
(d) * * *
(1) Method 24. You may determine the volatile organic and coating
solids mass fraction of each coating applied using Method 24 (appendix
A-7 to 40 CFR part 60). The Method 24 determination may be performed by
the manufacturer of the material and the results provided to you. When
using volatile organic compound content as a surrogate for HAP, you may
also use ASTM D3960-98, (incorporated by reference, see Sec. 63.14) as
an alternative to Method 24. If these values cannot be determined using
either of these methods, you must submit an alternative technique for
determining their values for approval by the Administrator.
(2) Formulation data. You may determine the volatile organic
content and coating solids content of a coating material based on
formulation data and may rely on volatile organic content data provided
by the manufacturer of the material. In the event of any inconsistency
between the formulation data and the results of Method 24 of appendix
A-7 to 40 CFR part 60 and the Method 24 results are higher, the results
of Method 24 will govern.
(3) As-applied volatile organic content and coating solids content.
If the as-purchased coating material is applied to the web without any
solvent or other material added, then the as-applied volatile organic
content is equal to the as-purchased volatile content and the as-
applied coating solids content is equal to the as-purchased coating
solids content. Otherwise, the as-applied volatile organic content must
be calculated using Equation 5 to Sec. 63.3370(c)(4) and the as-
applied coating solids content must be calculated using Equation 6 to
Sec. 63.3370(d).
(e) * * *
(1) Initial performance test. An initial performance test to
establish the destruction or removal efficiency of the control device
used to comply with the emission standards in Sec. 63.3320 must be
conducted such that control device inlet and outlet testing is
conducted simultaneously, and the data are reduced in accordance with
the test methods and procedures in paragraphs (e)(1)(i) through (ix) of
this section. You must conduct three test runs as specified in Sec.
63.7(e)(3), and each test run must last at least 1 hour.
(i) Method 1 or 1A of appendix A-1 to 40 CFR part 60 must be used
for sample and velocity traverses to determine sampling locations.
(ii) Method 2, 2A, 2C, 2D, or 2F of appendix A-1 to 40 CFR part 60,
or Method 2G of appendix A-2 to 40 CFR part 60 must be used to
determine gas volumetric flow rate.
(iii) Method 3, 3A, or 3B of appendix A-2 to 40 CFR part 60 must be
used 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 Part 10, (incorporated by reference, see Sec.
63.14).
(iv) Method 4 of appendix A-3 to 40 CFR part 60 must be used to
determine stack gas moisture.
(v) Methods for determining the gas volumetric flow rate, dry
molecular weight, and stack gas moisture must be performed, as
applicable, during each test run.
(vi) Method 25 or 25A of appendix A-7 to 40 CFR part 60 must be
used to determine total gaseous non-methane organic matter
concentration. Use the same test method for both the inlet and outlet
measurements which must be conducted simultaneously. You must submit
notice of the intended test method to the Administrator for approval
along with notification of the performance test required under Sec.
63.7(b). You must use Method 25A if any of the conditions described in
paragraphs (e)(1)(vi)(A) through (D) of this section apply to the
control device.
(A) The control device is not an oxidizer.
(B) The control device is an oxidizer but an exhaust gas volatile
organic matter concentration of 50 ppmv or less is required to comply
with the emission standards in Sec. 63.3320; or
(C) The control device is an oxidizer but the volatile organic
matter concentration at the inlet to the control system and the
required level of control are such that they result in exhaust gas
volatile organic matter concentrations of 50 ppmv or less; or
(D) The control device is an oxidizer but because of the high
efficiency of the control device the anticipated volatile organic
matter concentration at the
[[Page 41300]]
control device exhaust is 50 ppmv or less, regardless of inlet
concentration.
(vii) Except as provided in Sec. 63.7(e)(3), each performance test
must consist of three separate runs with each run conducted for at
least 1 hour under the conditions that exist when the affected source
is operating under normal operating conditions. For the purpose of
determining volatile organic compound concentrations and mass flow
rates, the average of the results of all the runs will apply.
(viii) Volatile organic matter mass flow rates must be determined
for each run specified in paragraph (e)(1)(vii) of this section using
Equation 1:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR09JY20.023
Where:
Mf = Total organic volatile matter mass flow rate,
kilograms (kg)/hour (h).
Qsd = Volumetric flow rate of gases entering or exiting
the control device, as determined according to paragraph (e)(1)(ii)
of this section, dry standard cubic meters (dscm)/h.
Cc = Concentration of organic compounds as carbon, ppmv.
12.0 = Molecular weight of carbon.
0.0416 = Conversion factor for molar volume, kg-moles per cubic
meter (mol/m\3\) (@293 Kelvin (K) and 760 millimeters of mercury
(mmHg)).
(ix) For each run, emission control device destruction or removal
efficiency must be determined using Equation 2:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR09JY20.000
Where:
E = Organic volatile matter control efficiency of the control
device, percent.
Mfi = Organic volatile matter mass flow rate at the inlet
to the control device, kg/h.
Mfo = Organic volatile matter mass flow rate at the
outlet of the control device, kg/h.
(x) The control device destruction or removal efficiency is
determined as the average of the efficiencies determined in the test
runs and calculated in Equation 2.
(2) Process information. You must record such process information
as may be necessary to determine the conditions in existence at the
time of the performance test. Representative conditions exclude periods
of startup and shutdown. You may not conduct performance tests during
periods of malfunction. You must record the process information that is
necessary to document operating conditions during the test and include
in such record an explanation to support that such conditions represent
normal operation. Upon request, you shall make available to the
Administrator such records as may be necessary to determine the
conditions of performance tests.
(3) Operating limits. If you are using one or more add-on control
device other than a solvent recovery system for which you conduct a
liquid-liquid material balance to comply with the emission standards in
Sec. 63.3320, you must establish the applicable operating limits
required by Sec. 63.3321. These operating limits apply to each add-on
emission control device, and you must establish the operating limits
during the performance test required by paragraph (e) of this section
according to the requirements in paragraphs (e)(3)(i) and (ii) of this
section.
(i) Thermal oxidizer. If your add-on control device is a thermal
oxidizer, establish the operating limits according to paragraphs
(e)(3)(i)(A) and (B) of this section.
(A) 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.
(B) Use the data collected during the performance test to calculate
and record the average combustion temperature maintained during the
performance test. Maintain the 3-hour average combustion temperature no
more than 50 degrees Fahrenheit lower than this average combustion
temperature.
(ii) Catalytic oxidizer. If your add-on control device is a
catalytic oxidizer, establish the operating limits according to
paragraphs (e)(3)(ii)(A) and (B) or paragraphs (e)(3)(ii)(C) and (D) of
this section.
(A) During the performance test, you must monitor and record the
temperature just before the catalyst bed and the temperature difference
across the catalyst bed at least once every 15 minutes during each of
the three test runs.
(B) Use the data collected during the performance test to calculate
and record the average temperature just before the catalyst bed and the
average temperature difference across the catalyst bed maintained
during the performance test. Maintain the 3-hour average combustion
temperature no more than 50 degrees Fahrenheit lower than this average
combustion temperature or maintain the 3-hour average temperature
difference across the catalyst bed at no less than 80 percent of this
average temperature differential, provided that the minimum temperature
is always 50 degrees Fahrenheit above the catalyst's ignition
temperature.
(C) As an alternative to monitoring the temperature difference
across the catalyst bed, you may monitor the temperature at the inlet
to the catalyst bed and implement a site-specific inspection and
maintenance plan for your catalytic oxidizer as specified in paragraph
(e)(3)(ii)(D) of this section. During the performance test, you must
monitor and record the temperature just before the catalyst bed at
least once every 15 minutes during each of the three test runs. Use the
data collected during the performance test to calculate and record the
average temperature just before the catalyst bed during the performance
test. Maintain the 3-hour average combustion temperature no more than
50 degrees Fahrenheit lower than this average combustion temperature.
(D) You must develop and implement an inspection and maintenance
plan for your catalytic oxidizer(s) for which you elect to monitor
according to paragraph (e)(3)(ii)(C) of this section. The plan must
address, at a minimum, the elements specified in paragraphs
(e)(3)(ii)(D)(1) through (3) of this section.
[[Page 41301]]
(1) Annual sampling and analysis of the catalyst activity (i.e.,
conversion efficiency) following the manufacturer's or catalyst
supplier's recommended procedures,
(2) Monthly inspection of the oxidizer system including the burner
assembly and fuel supply lines for problems, and
(3) 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 recommendations and conduct a new performance test to
determine destruction efficiency in accordance with this section.
(4) Control Destruction Efficiency Curve Development. If you are
using one or more add-on control devices other than a solvent recovery
system for which you conduct a liquid-liquid material balance to comply
with the emission standards in Sec. 63.3320, you may establish a
control destruction efficiency curve for use in estimating emissions
that occur during deviations of the 3-hour operating parameters. This
curve can be generated using test data or manufacturer's data that
specifically documents the level of control at varying temperatures for
your control device.
(f) Capture efficiency. If you demonstrate compliance by meeting
the requirements of Sec. 63.3370(f), (g), (h), (i), (j)(2), (l),
(o)(2) or (3), or (q), you must determine capture efficiency using the
procedures in paragraph (f)(1), (2), or (3) of this section, as
applicable.
* * * * *
(g) Volatile matter retained in the coated web or otherwise not
emitted to the atmosphere. You may choose to take into account the mass
of volatile matter retained in the coated web after curing or drying or
otherwise not emitted to the atmosphere when determining compliance
with the emission standards in Sec. 63.3320. If you choose this
option, you must develop a site- and product-specific emission factor
(EF) and determine the amount of volatile matter retained in the coated
web or otherwise not emitted using Equation 3 to Sec. 63.3360(g)(1).
The EF must be developed by conducting a performance test using an
approved EPA test method, or alternative approved by the Administrator
by obtaining the average of a three-run test. You may additionally use
manufacturer's emissions test data (as long as it replicates the
facility's coating formulation and operating conditions), or a mass-
balance type approach using a modified Method 24 (including ASTM D5403-
93 for radiation-cureable coatings). The EF should equal the proportion
of the mass of volatile organics emitted to the mass of volatile
organics in the coating materials evaluated. You may use the EF in your
compliance calculations only for periods that the work station(s) was
(were) used to make the product, or a similar product, corresponding to
that produced during the performance test. You must develop a separate
EF for each group of different products that you choose to utilize an
EF for calculating emissions by conducting a separate performance test
for that group of products. You must conduct a periodic performance
test to re-establish the EF if there is a change in coating
formulation, operating conditions, or other change that could
reasonably be expected to increase emissions since the time of the last
test that was used to establish the EF.
(1) Calculate the mass of volatile organics retained in the coated
web or otherwise not emitted for the month from each group of similar
products using Equation 3:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR09JY20.018
Where:
Mvret = Mass of volatile matter retained in the coated
web after curing or drying, or otherwise not emitted to the
atmosphere, kg.
Cvi = Volatile organic content of coating material, i,
expressed as a mass fraction, kg/kg.
Mi = Mass of as-purchased coating material, i, applied in
a month, kg.
q = Number of different materials added to the coating material.
Cvij = Volatile organic content of material, j, added to
as-purchased coating material, i, expressed as a mass fraction, kg/
kg.
Mij = Mass of material, j, added to as-purchased coating
material, i, in a month, kg.
EFi = Volatile organic matter site- and product-specific
emission factor (three-run average determined from performance
testing, evaluated as proportion of mass volatile organics emitted
to mass of volatile organics in the coatings used during the
performance test).

Sec. 63.3370 How do I demonstrate compliance with the emission
standards?
You must demonstrate compliance each month with the emission
limitations in Sec. 63.3320(b)(1) through (4). For each monthly
demonstration, you may apply any combination of the emission
limitations to each of your web coating lines individually, to each of
one or more groupings of your lines (including a single grouping
encompassing all lines of your affected source), or to any combination
of individual and grouped lines, so long as each web coating line is
included in the compliance demonstration for the month (i.e., you are
not required to apply the same emission limitation to each of the
individual lines or groups of lines). You may change the emission
limitation that you apply each month to your individual or grouped
lines, and you may change line groupings for your monthly compliance
demonstration.

63.3360(g) to take into account volatile organic matter that is
retained in the coated web or otherwise not emitted, you must identify
each group of similar products that can utilize each site- and product-
specific emission factor. Details regarding the test methods and
calculations are provided in Sec. 63.3360(g).
(f) Capture and control to reduce emissions to no more than
allowable limit (Sec. 63.3320(b)(1)). Operate a capture system and
control device and demonstrate an overall organic HAP control
efficiency of at least 95 percent at an existing affected source and at
least 98 percent at a new affected source for each month, or operate a
capture system and oxidizer so that an outlet organic HAP concentration
of no greater than 20 ppmv on a dry basis is achieved as long as the
capture efficiency is 100 percent as detailed in Sec. 63.3320(b)(4).
Unless one of the cases described in paragraph (f)(1), (2), or (3) of
this section applies to the affected source, you must either
demonstrate compliance in accordance with the procedure in paragraph
(i) of this section when emissions from the affected source are
controlled by a solvent recovery device, or the procedure in paragraph
(l) of this section when emissions are controlled by an oxidizer or
demonstrate compliance for a web coating line by operating each capture
system and each control device and continuous parameter monitoring
according to the procedures in paragraph (k) of this section.
(1) If the affected source has only always-controlled work stations
and operates more than one capture system or more than one control
device, you must demonstrate compliance in accordance with the
provisions of either paragraph (o) or (q) of this section.

work stations or one or more intermittently-controlled work stations,
you must demonstrate compliance in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph (o) of this section.

achieves 100 percent capture efficiency and ventilation of all organic
HAP emissions from the total enclosure to an oxidizer with an outlet
organic HAP concentration of no greater than 20 ppmv on a dry basis. If
this method is selected, you must demonstrate compliance by following

affected source to no more than 0.20 kg organic HAP emitted per kg
coating solids applied, and from a new affected source to no more than
0.08 kg organic HAP emitted per kg coating solids applied as determined
on a monthly average as-applied basis. If the affected source operates
more than one capture system, more than one control device, one or more
never-controlled work stations, or one or more intermittently-
controlled work stations, then you must demonstrate compliance in
accordance with the provisions of paragraph (o) of this section.
Otherwise, you must demonstrate compliance following the procedure in
paragraph (j) of this section when emissions from the affected source
are controlled by a solvent recovery device or the procedure in
paragraph (l) of this section when emissions are controlled by an
oxidizer.
(h) Capture and control to achieve mass fraction limit (Sec.
63.3320(b)(2)). Operate a capture system and control device and limit
the organic HAP emission rate to no more than 0.04 kg organic HAP
emitted per kg coating material applied at an existing affected source,
and no more than 0.016 kg organic HAP emitted per kg coating material
applied at a new affected source as determined on a monthly average as-
applied basis. If the affected source operates more than one capture
system, more than one control device, one or more never-controlled work
stations, or one or more intermittently-controlled work stations, then
you must demonstrate compliance in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph (o) of this section. Otherwise, you must demonstrate

when emissions from the affected source are controlled by a solvent
recovery device or the procedure in paragraph (l) of this section when

a capture system and control device and limit the monthly organic HAP
emissions to less than the allowable emissions as calculated in
accordance with paragraph (m) of this section. If the affected source
operates more than one capture system, more than one control device,
one or more never-controlled work stations, or one or more
intermittently-controlled work stations, then you must demonstrate
compliance in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (o) of this
section. Otherwise, the owner or operator must demonstrate compliance
following the procedure in paragraph (j) of this section when emissions
from the affected source are controlled by a solvent recovery device or
the procedure in paragraph (l) of this section when emissions are
controlled by an oxidizer.

calculated allowable organic HAP as determined using paragraph (m) of
this section.

deviations occurred during the monthly averaging period, compliance
with the emission standards in Sec. 63.3320(b) is determined by
assuming no control of emissions or by estimating the emissions using a
control destruction efficiency curve during each 3-hour period that was
a deviation. You are in compliance with the emission standards in Sec.

allowable organic HAP emissions for use in demonstrating compliance in
accordance with paragraph (d), (i), (j)(1)(x)(D), (j)(2)(xi)(D), or

percent organic HAP at a new affected source as follows:
(1) Determine the as-purchased mass of each coating material
applied each month.
(2) Determine the as-purchased coating solids content of each
coating material applied each month in accordance with Sec.
63.3360(d)(1).

(o) Combinations of capture and control. If you operate more than
one capture system, more than one control device, one or more never-
controlled work stations, or one or more intermittently-controlled work

paragraphs (f) through (i) of this section. Use the procedures
specified in paragraph (o)(6) of this section to demonstrate
compliance.
(1) Solvent recovery system using liquid-liquid material balance
compliance demonstration. If you choose to comply by means of a liquid-

control one or more web coating lines, you must determine the organic
HAP emissions for those web coating lines controlled by that solvent
recovery system either:

through (vii) of this section, if the web coating lines controlled by
that solvent recovery system have only always-controlled work stations;
or

and (p) of this section, if the web coating lines controlled by that
solvent recovery system have one or more never-controlled or
intermittently-controlled work stations.

and control system have one or more never-controlled or intermittently-
controlled work stations.
(4) Uncontrolled coating lines. If you own or operate one or more
uncontrolled web coating lines, you must determine the organic HAP

of this section were maintained at the values established under
Sec. Sec. 63.3350 and 63.3360 and one of the standards in paragraphs
(o)(6)(i) through (iv) of this section were met. If operating parameter
deviations occurred, the affected source is in compliance with the
emission standards in Sec. 63.3320(b) for the month if, assuming no

destruction efficiency curve for each 3-hour deviation period, one of
the standards in paragraphs (6)(i) through (iv) of this section were
met.
(i) The total mass of organic HAP emitted by the affected source

source in the month must be determined using Equation 10.
(p) Intermittently-controlled and never-controlled work stations.
If you have been expressly referenced to this paragraph by paragraph
(o)(1)(ii), (o)(2)(ii)(B), or (o)(3)(iii)(B) of this section for
calculation procedures to determine organic HAP emissions for your
intermittently-controlled and never-controlled work stations, you must:

except where you choose to take into account the volatile matter
retained in the coated web or otherwise not emitted to the
atmosphere for the compliance demonstration procedures in this
section.

balance approach in accordance with this section, except for any month
that you elect to meet the emission limitation in Sec. 63.3320(b)(4).
The mass-balance approach should be performed as follows:
(1) Separately for each individual/grouping(s) of lines, you must
sum the mass of organic HAP emitted during the month and divide by the
corresponding total mass of all organic HAP applied on the lines, or
total mass of coating materials applied on the lines, or total mass of
coating solids applied on the lines, for the same period, in accordance
with the emission limitation that you have elected at Sec.
63.3320(b)(1) through (3) for the month's demonstration. You may also
choose to use volatile organic content as a surrogate for organic HAP
for the compliance demonstration in accordance with Sec. 63.3360(d).
You are required to include all emissions and inputs that occur during
periods that each line or grouping of lines operates in accordance with
the applicability criteria in Sec. 63.3300.
(2) You must include all of the organic HAP emitted by your
individual/grouping(s) of lines, as follows.
[[Page 41313]]

content utilized at all work stations of all of your individually/
grouping(s) of lines. You must additionally record the mass of all
coating materials applied at these work stations if you are
demonstrating compliance for the month with the emission limitation at
Sec. 63.3320(b)(2) (the ``coating materials'' option). You must
additionally record the mass of all coating solids applied at these
work stations if you are demonstrating compliance for the month with
the emission limitation at Sec. 63.3320(b)(3) (the ``coating solids''
option).
(ii) You must assume that all of the organic HAP input to all
never-controlled work stations is emitted, unless you have determined
an emission factor in accordance with Sec. 63.3360(g).
(iii) For all always-controlled work stations, you must assume that
all of the organic HAP or volatile organic content is emitted, less the
reductions provided by the corresponding capture system and control
device, in accordance with the most recently measured capture and
destruction efficiencies, or in accordance with the measured mass of
volatile organic compounds (VOC) recovered for the month (e.g., carbon
control or condensers). You may account for organic HAP or volatile
organic content retained in the coated web or otherwise not emitted if
you have determined an emission factor in accordance with Sec.
63.3360(g).
(iv) For all intermittently-controlled work stations, you must
assume that all of the organic HAP or volatile organic content is
emitted during periods of no control. During periods of control, you
must assume that all of the organic HAP or volatile organic content is
emitted, less the reductions provided by the corresponding capture
system and control device, in accordance with the most recently
measured capture and destruction efficiencies, or in accordance with
the measured mass of VOC recovered for the month (e.g., carbon control
or condensers). You may account for organic HAP or volatile organic
content retained in the coated web or otherwise not emitted if you have
determined an emission factor in accordance with Sec. 63.3360(g).
(v) You must record the organic HAP or volatile organic content
input to all work stations of your individual/grouping(s) of lines and
the mass of coating materials and/or solids applied, if applicable, and
determine corresponding emissions during all periods of operation,
including malfunctions or startups and shutdowns of any web coating
line or control device.
(3) You are in compliance with the emission standards in Sec.
63.3320(b) if each of your individual/grouping(s) of lines, meets one
of the requirements in paragraphs (r)(3)(i) through (iii) of this
section, as applicable. If operating parameter limit deviations
occurred, including periods that the oxidizer control device(s), if
any, operated at an average combustion temperature more than 50 degrees
Fahrenheit below the temperature established in accordance with Sec.
63.3360(e), or the 3-hour average temperature difference across the
catalyst bed at no less than 80 percent of this average temperature
differential and the catalytic oxidizer maintained a minimum
temperature 50 degrees Fahrenheit above the catalyst's ignition
temperature, you are in compliance with the emission standards in Sec.
