Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024
a) Exemptions for all coating categories
except wood furniture coating and aerospace facilities. The limitations of this
Subpart do not apply to coating lines within a source, that otherwise would be
subject to the same subsection of Section
219.204
(because they belong to the same coating category, e.g., can coating), provided
that combined actual emissions of VOM from all lines at the source subject to
that subsection never exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of
capture systems and control devices. (For example, can coating lines within a
source would not be subject to the limitations of Section
219.204(b)
if the combined actual emissions of VOM from the can coating lines never exceed
6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of capture systems and control
devices.) Prior to May 2012, volatile organic material emissions from heavy
off-highway vehicle products coating lines must be combined with VOM emissions
from miscellaneous metal parts and products coating lines to determine
applicability. On and after May 1, 2012, VOM emissions from heavy off-highway
vehicle products coating lines must be combined with VOM emissions from
miscellaneous metal parts and products coating lines and plastic parts and
products coating lines to determine applicability. Any owner or operator of a
coating source must comply with the applicable coating analysis test methods
and procedures specified in Section
219.105(a)
and the recordkeeping and reporting requirements specified in Section
219.211(a)
if total VOM emissions from the subject coating lines are always less than or
equal to 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of capture systems and
control devices and, therefore, are not subject to the limitations of Section
219.204. Once a category of coating lines at a source is subject to the
limitations in Section
219.204 the
coating lines are always subject to the limitations in Section
219.204.
b) Applicability for Wood
Furniture Coating
1) The limitations of this
Subpart apply to a source's wood furniture coating lines if the source contains
process emission units, not regulated by Subparts B, E, F (excluding Section
219.204(l)),
H (excluding Section
219.405),
Q, R, S, T (excluding Section
219.486), V,
X, Y, Z or BB, which as a group both:
A) Have
a maximum theoretical emissions of 91 Mg (100 tons) or more per calendar year
of VOM if no air pollution control equipment were used; and
B) Are not limited to less than 91 Mg (100
tons) of VOM per calendar year if no air pollution control equipment were used,
through production or capacity limitations contained in a federally enforceable
permit or SIP revision.
2) The limitations of this Subpart apply to a
source's wood furniture coating lines, on and after March 15, 1996, if the
source contains process emission units, which as a group, have a potential to
emit 22.7 Mg (25 tons) or more of VOM per calendar year and have not limited
emissions to less than 22.7 Mg (25 tons) of VOM per calendar year through
production or capacity limitations contained in a federally enforceable
operating permit or SIP revision, and that:
A) Are not regulated by Subparts B, E, F
(excluding Section
219.204(l)),
H, Q, R, S, T (excluding Section 219.486), V, X, Y, Z or BB; and
B) Are not included in any of the following
categories: synthetic organic chemical manufacturing industry (SOCMI)
distillation, SOCMI reactors, plastic parts coating (business machines),
plastic parts coating (other), offset lithography, industrial wastewater,
autobody refinishing, SOCMI batch processing, volatile organic liquid storage
tanks and clean-up solvents operations.
3) If a source ceases to fulfill the criteria
of subsection (b)(1) or (b)(2), the limitations of Section
219.204(l)
continue to apply to any wood furniture coating line which was ever subject to
the limitations of Section
219.204(l).
4) For the purposes of this subsection (b),
an emission unit is considered to be regulated by a Subpart if it is subject to
the limitations of that Subpart. An emission unit is not considered regulated
by a Subpart if it is not subject to the limits of that Subpart, e.g., the
emission unit is covered by an exemption in the Subpart or the applicability
criteria of the Subpart are not met.
5) Any owner or operator of a wood furniture
coating line to which the limitations of this Subpart are not applicable due to
the criteria in this subsection (b) must, upon request by the Agency or the
USEPA, submit records to the Agency and the USEPA within 30 calendar days from
the date of the request that document that the coating line is exempt from the
limitations of this Subpart.
c) On and after March 15, 1996, the
limitations of this Subpart do not apply to touch-up and repair coatings used
by a coating source described by Section
219.204(b), (d), (f), (g),
(i), and (q)(5); provided that the
source-wide volume of these coatings used does not exceed 0.95 1 (1 quart) per
eight-hour period or exceed 209 1/yr (55 gal/yr) for any rolling 12 month
period. Recordkeeping and reporting for touch-up and repair coatings must be
consistent with subsection (d).
d)
Prior to May 1, 2012, the limitations of this Subpart do not apply to touch-up
and repair coatings used by a coating source described by Section
219.204(j),
(m), and (n), provided that the source-wide
volume of the coatings used does not exceed 0.95 l (1 quart) per eight-hour
period or exceed 209 l/yr (55 gal/yr) for any rolling twelve month period.
Recordkeeping and reporting for touch-up and repair coatings must be consistent
with subsection (e).
e) On and
after March 15, 1996, the owner or operator of a coating line or a group of
coating lines using touch-up and repair coatings that are exempted from the
limitations of Section
219.204(b), (d), (f), (g),
(i), (j), (m), (n), and (q)(5) because of the
provisions of subsection (c) or (d) must:
1)
Collect and record the name, identification number, and volume used of each
touch-up and repair coating, as applied on each coating line, per eight-hour
period and per month;
2) Perform
calculations on a daily basis, and maintain at the source records of such
calculations of the combined volume of touch-up and repair coatings used
source-wide for each eight-hour period;
3) Perform calculations on a monthly basis,
and maintain at the source records of such calculations of the combined volume
of touch-up and repair coatings used source-wide for the month and the rolling
12 month period;
4) Prepare and
maintain at the source an annual summary of the information required to be
compiled under subsections (e)(1) and (e)(2) on or before January 31 of the
following year;
5) Maintain at the
source for a minimum period of three years all records required to be kept
under this subsection (e) and make the records available to the Agency upon
request;
6) Notify the Agency in
writing if the use of touch-up and repair coatings at the source ever exceeds a
volume of 0.95 1 (1 quart) per eight-hour period or exceeds 209 1/yr (55
gal/yr) for any rolling 12 month period within 30 days after any such
exceedance. The notification must include a copy of any records of the
exceedance; and
7) "Touch-up and
repair coatings" means, for purposes of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 219.208, any coating
used to cover minor scratches and nicks that occur during manufacturing and
assembly processes.
f)
Applicability for Aerospace Facilities
1)
Except as provided in subsection (f)(4), the requirements of this Subpart apply
to an aerospace facility's aerospace coating operations and cleaning operations
on and after July 1, 2021, if the source contains process emission units that,
as a group, have a potential to emit 22.7 Mg (25 tons) or more of VOM per
calendar year and have not limited emissions to less than 22.7 Mg (25 tons) of
VOM per calendar year through production or capacity limitations contained in a
federally enforceable permit or SIP revision.
2) If a source ceases to fulfill the criteria
of subsection (f)(1), the requirements of this Subpart continue to apply to any
aerospace facility that was ever subject to the requirements of this
Subpart.
3) The limitations of
Section
219.204(r)(2)
do not apply to touch-up coatings at aerospace facilities, provided that the
combined source-wide volume of the coatings that do not comply with the
limitations of Section
219.204(r)(2)
used at an aerospace facility does not exceed 2.85 l (3 quarts) per 24-hour
period or exceed 209 l/yr (55 gal/yr) for any rolling 12-month period.
Recordkeeping and reporting for touch-up coatings must be consistent with
Section
219.211(j)(2).
4) The requirements in Section
219.211(k)
apply to an aerospace facility's aerospace coating operations and cleaning
operations on and after July 1, 2021, if the source contains process emission
units that, as a group, have a potential to emit less than 22.7 Mg (25 tons) of
VOM per calendar year or have limited emissions to less than 22.7 Mg (25 tons)
of VOM per calendar year through production or capacity limitations contained
in a federally enforceable permit or SIP revision.
