Section 28-19-63 - Automobile and light duty truck surface coating
Current through Register Vol. 43, No. 39, September 26, 2024
(a) The provisions of this regulation shall be applicable to each automobile or light duty truck top coat and primer surfacer surface coating operation and all other automobile or light duty truck surface coating application systems at those facilities which have a VOC potential contaminant emission rate equal to or greater than three tons per year. For the purposes of this rule, surface coating operation means the combination of all coating application systems which apply the specific class of surface coatings identified at table A of subsection (b). The VOC potential contaminant emission rate of a facility shall be determined by:
(b) An owner or operator of any facility subject to this regulation shall not:

(c) Use of additional VOC shall be considered as follows:
(d) The emission limits which will result from the use of coatings in subsection (b) shall be achieved by:
(e) Prior to 180 days after a facility becomes subject to the provisions of this regulation, the owner or operator of the facility shall demonstrate, at the expense of the owner or operator, initial compliance with this regulation by testing. An owner or operator proposing to conduct testing shall notify the department, in writing, of the intent to test not later than 30 days prior to the proposed date of testing. The owner or operator shall submit to the department any information about the proposed test requested by the department. The department may require, at any time necessary to determine compliance with this regulation, the owner or operator of any facility subject to this regulation to demonstrate compliance by testing, and at the expense of the owner or operator. Testing, for purposes of this regulation, shall be approved by the department and consistent with:
(f) Demonstration of continual compliance per top coat and primer surfacer surface coating operations achieved by subsection (d)(2) shall be based on the procedures in the publication "protocol for determining the daily volatile organic compound emission rate of automobile and light-duty truck topcoat operations," published in EPA document no. EPA-450/3-88-018 (December 1988).
(g) Demonstration of continual compliance per coating application system not covered by subsection (f), achieved by subsection (d)(3) or (d)(4) shall be based on the finding that the results obtained by the formula in (2) are equal to or less than the results obtained by the formula in (1), both results on a daily weighted average basis.
VOC, lbs / gal. of solids applied = EL / (VS)(TE)
EL = the coating characteristics established by this regulation, expressed as pounds of VOC per gallon of coating, less exempt VOC and water.
VS = volume fraction of solids in EL, expressed as a decimal, where the density of coating solvents is assumed to be 7.36 pounds per gallon, less exempt VOC and water.
TE = baseline transfer efficiency as defined at K.A.R. 28-19-61, expressed as a decimal.
VOC, lbs / gal. of solids applied = AC (1-E) / (vs)(te)
AC = pounds of VOC per gallon of the coating as delivered to the coating application system, less exempt VOC and water.
E = the demonstrated efficiency of installed vapor processing system determined by the actual vapor collection system efficiency multiplied by the actual VOC emission control device efficiency, expressed as a decimal.
vs = volume fraction of solids of the coating as delivered to the coating application system, expressed as a decimal. For water-borne coatings, the volume fraction of solids is determined without water.
te = the demonstrated transfer efficiency of the coating application system, expressed as a decimal.
The owner or operator shall determine AC and vs by using 40 CFR Part 60, appendix A, reference method 24, as in effect July 1, 1989, and data supplied by the coating manufacturer adjusted by the VOC used for thinning purposes; or from analysis of coating as applied. The analysis shall be conducted by the owner or operator in accordance with reference method 24, as in effect July 1, 1989. If manufacturers formulation data is used, verification of the data may be required by reference method 24, or a department approved equivalent method, and at the expense of the owner or operator.
(h) The owner or operator of each emission unit within a facility subject to this regulation shall keep and maintain records at the facility and make available for inspection by a department representative to determine continuous compliance of the facility with this regulation.
(i) The owner or operator of a facility shall comply with all emission limits within 180 days after the facility becomes subject to the provisions of this regulation.
(j) The provisions of this regulation shall be applicable only to affected facilities located in areas which have been identified as not meeting the national primary ambient air quality standard for ozone in the manner prescribed by the provisions of section 107(d) of the federal clean air act, 42 U.S.C. 7407 as promulgated at 40 CFR Part 81 as in effect July 1, 1986 and amended at 51 Fed. Reg. 25,200 July 11, 1986.
