(ii)
The monomer VOC content (weight per cent) shall be determined by using SCAQMD
method 312-91. As an alternative, manufacture's formulation data may be used to
demonstrate compliance. If there is a discrepancy between the manufacture's
formulation data and the results of a subsequent test, test method results will
be the determining factor unless the owner or operator can demonstrate to the
director that the manufacturer's formulation data are correct.
(iii) Compliance using the VOC content
requirements listed in table 1 of this rule is based on a twelve-month rolling
average that is calculated at the end of every month. The first twelve-month
rolling-average period begins on the compliance date specified in paragraph
(K)(1) of this rule. If the owner or operator is using filled material
(production resin or tooling resin), the owner or operator shall comply
according to the procedure described in paragraph (H) (3) of this
rule.
(iv) At the end of the
twelfth month after the facility's compliance date and at the end of every
subsequent month, the owner or operator shall review the VOC contents of the
resins and gel coats used in the past twelve months in each operation. If all
resins and gel coats used in an operation have VOC contents no greater than the
applicable VOC content limitations in table 1 of this rule, then the owner or
operator is in compliance with the emission limitation specified in paragraph
(D)(3) of this rule for that twelve-month period for that operation. In
addition, the owner or operator does not need to complete the weighted-average
VOC content calculation contained in paragraph (H)(2)(a)(v) of this rule for
that operation.
(v) In the event
the owner or operator does not demonstrate compliance under paragraph
(H)(2)(a)(iv) of this rule, at the end of every month, the owner or operator
shall use the following equation to calculate the weighted average VOC content
for all resins and gel coats used in each operation in the past twelve months.

n = number of different molding resins or gel coats used in the
past twelve months in an operation.
If the weighted-average VOC content for all materials of a
certain type and specific application method does not exceed the applicable VOC
content limitation specified in table 1 of this rule, then the owner or
operator is in compliance with the emission limitation specified in paragraph
(D)(3) of this rule.
(b) Emissions averaging option.
(i) Compliance using the emissions averaging
option is demonstrated on a twelve-month rolling-average basis and is
determined at the end of every month (twelve times per year). The first
twelve-month rolling-average period begins on the compliance date specified in
paragraph (K)(1) of this rule.
(ii)
At the end of the twelfth month after the facility's compliance date and at the
end of every subsequent month, use the following equation to demonstrate that
the VOC emissions from those operations included in the average do not exceed
the emission limitation in paragraph (D)(3) of this rule calculated for the
same twelve-month period. (Include terms in the equation specified in paragraph
(D) (3) of this rule and the following equation for only those operations and
materials included in the average.)
Monomer VOC emissions =

Equations in table 2 of this rule calculate the monomer VOC
emission rate value in kilograms of VOC per megagrams of resin or gel coat
applied. To convert the monomer VOC emission rate to pounds per ton multiply
the product of the equation by two. The equations for vacuum bagging with
roll-out are applicable when a facility rolls out the applied resin and fabric
prior to applying the vacuum bagging materials. The equations for vacuum
bagging without roll-out are applicable when a facility applies the vacuum
bagging materials immediately after resin application without rolling out the
resin and fabric. VOC per cent equals VOC content as supplied, expressed as a
weight-per cent value between zero and one hundred per cent.
(v) If the monomer VOC emissions, as
calculated in paragraph (H)(2)(b)(ii) of this rule, are less than the monomer
VOC emission limitation calculated in the equation specified in paragraph
(D)(3)(a) of this rule for the same twelve-month period, then the facility is
in compliance with the emission limitation calculated in paragraph (D)(3)(a) of
this rule for those operations and materials included in the average.
(vi) Those operations and materials not
included in this emissions average option shall demonstrate compliance using an
option in paragraph (H)(2)(a) or (H)(2)(c) of this rule.
(c) Add-on control option.
(i) The owner or operator shall demonstrate
compliance by employing an add-on control device with a minimum overall control
efficiency that will meet the monomer VOC emission limitations specified in
paragraph (D)(3) of this rule.
(ii)
Compliance shall be determined by performing emissions tests in accordance with
the following:
(a) The general provisions
specified under paragraphs (A)(2) to (A)(5) of rule
3745-21-10 of the Administrative
Code shall apply to the compliance testing.
(b) The test methods and procedures of
paragraph (C) of rule
3745-21-10 of the Administrative
Code shall be followed.
(c) When
calculating the monomer VOC emission limitation in paragraph (D)(3) of this
rule, the owner or operator shall use the mass of each material used during the
control device performance test (in lieu of the mass of each material used over
the past twelve months) to determine the emission limit that is applicable
during the test. If the measured emissions at the outlet of the control device
are less than the emission limit, then the facility will be considered to have
achieved compliance with the emission limit.
(3) The monomer VOC
emission limitation (for filled resins) requirement of paragraph (D)(3)(b) of
this rule.
(a) If the owner or operator is
using a filled production resin or filled tooling resin, compliance shall be

Where:
PVF = The as-applied monomer VOC
emission rate for a filled production resin or tooling resin, pounds of monomer
VOC per ton of filled material.
PVu = The monomer VOC emission rate for
the neat (unfilled) resin, before filler is added, as calculated using the
formulas in table 2 of this rule.
Per cent filler = The weight-per cent of filler in the
as-applied filled resin system.
(b) If the owner or operator is including a
filled resin in the emissions averaging procedure described in paragraph
(H)(2)(b) of this rule, then the owner or operator shall use the value of
PVF calculated using the equation above for the value of
PVi in equation specified in paragraph (H)(2)(b)(iii) of
this rule.
(4) The
cleaning material requirements of paragraph (E) of this rule.
(a) Compliance with the VOC content
requirement shall be determined by using the procedures outlined in USEPA
method 24.
(b) Compliance with the
vapor pressure requirement shall be determined by the following procedures:
(i) Determining the identity and quantity of
each compound in a blended organic solvent by using ASTM D2306-00, or by using
ASTM E260-96(2011) for organics and ASTM D3792-05(2009) for water content, if
applicable, or the manufacturer's product formulation data; and
(ii) Determining the vapor pressure of each
pure VOC component by using ASTM D2879-10 or from publications such as "Perry's
Chemical Engineer's Handbook," "CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics," or
