Title 326 - AIR POLLUTION CONTROL DIVISION
Article 8 - VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND RULES
Rule 11 - Wood Furniture Coatings
Section 11-7 - Test procedures

(a) Compliance with the emission limits in section 3 of this rule shall be determined by the procedures and methods contained in 326 IAC 8-1-4 and 40 CFR 60, Appendix A*. The owner or operator of the wood furniture manufacturing operation may request approval from the department and the U.S. EPA to use an equivalent or alternative method.

(b) If it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the department and the U.S. EPA that a finishing material does not release VOC byproducts during the cure, for example, all VOC is solvent, then batch formulation information shall be accepted. In the event of any inconsistency between a 40 CFR 60, Appendix A, Method 24* test and a facility's formulation data, that is, if the 40 CFR 60, Appendix A, Method 24* value is higher, the 40 CFR 60, Appendix A, Method 24* shall govern.

(c) Owners or operators complying with the provision of this rule through use of a control system shall demonstrate initial compliance by demonstrating the overall control efficiency determined by using procedures in 326 IAC 8-1-4 and 40 CFR 60, Appendix A*, is at least equal to the required overall control efficiency determined by using the equation in section 6(a)(2)(A) of this rule.

(d) All tests required in this section shall be conducted according to protocol developed in consultation with the department.
