v. If the organic HAP emissions, as calculated Paragraph h.ii, above, are less than the organic HAP limit
calculated in Paragraph b., above, for the same 12-month period, then the Permittee is in compliance
with the emission limit in Paragraph b., above, for those operations and materials included in the
average.
Demonstrating Compliance Usin_ Compliant Materials [40 CFR 63.5713]
i. i. Compliance using the organic HAP content requirements listed in Table 2 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart
VVVV(see Paragraph e.iii,above)is based on a 12-month rolling average that is calculated at the end
of every month. If the Permittee is using filled material(production resin or tooling resin),the Permittee
must comply according to the procedure described in Paragraph j,below.
ii. At the end of the twelfth month after the Permittee's compliance date and at the end of every subsequent
month,review the organic HAP contents of the resins and gel coats used in the past 12 months in each
operation. If all resins and gel coats used in an operation have organic HAP contents no greater than
the applicable organic HAP content limits in Table 2,as contained in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart VVVV,
then the Permittee is in compliance with the emission limit specified in Paragraph b.,above for that 12-
month period for that operation. In addition, the Permittee does not need to complete the weighted-
average organic HAP content calculation contained in Paragraph idii,below,for that operation.
iii. At the end of every month,the Permittee shall use Equation 4 to calculate the weighted-average organic
HAP content for all resins and gel coats used in each operation in the past 12 months.
1 Equations calculate MACT model point value in kilograms of organic HAP per megagrams of resin or gel coat
applied.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.HAP%=organic HAP content as supplied, expressed as a weight-percent value between 0
and 100 percent.

ii. If the filled resin is used as a production resin and the value of PVF calculated by equation 1 of this
condition does not exceed 46 kilograms of organic HAP per megagram of filled resin applied,then the
filled resin is in compliance.
iii. If the filled resin is used as a tooling resin and the value of PVF calculated by Equation 5 does not
exceed 54 kilograms of organic HAP per megagram of filled resin applied, then the filled resin is in
compliance.
iv. If the Permittee is including a filled resin in the emissions averaging procedure described in Paragraph
h., above, then use the value of PVF calculated using Equation 5 for the value of PVi in Equation 3,
above.

specified in Paragraph d., above,using the methods specified in Paragraph m.,below.
ii. If the Permittee recycles cleaning solvents on site, the Permittee may use documentation from the
solvent manufacturer or supplier or a measurement of the organic HAP content of the cleaning solvent
as originally obtained from the solvent supplier for demonstrating compliance,subject to the conditions
in Paragraph m.,below, for demonstrating compliance with organic HAP content limits.
iii. At least once per month, the Permittee must visually inspect any containers holding organic HAP-
containing solvents used for removing cured resin and gel coat to ensure that the containers have covers
with no visible gaps.Keep records of the monthly inspections and any repairs made to the covers.
Demonstratin2 Compliance with Carpet and Fabric Adhesive Operations [40 CFR 63.5740]
1. The Permittee must use carpet and fabric adhesives that contain no more than 5 percent organic HAP by
weight. To demonstrate compliance with this emission limit,the Permittee shall determine and record the
organic HAP content of the carpet and fabric adhesives using the methods in Paragraph m.,below.
Determine the Oreanic HAP Content of Materials [40 CFR 63.5758]
m. Determine the organic HAP content for each material used. To determine the organic HAP content for each
material used in the Permittee's open molding resin and gel coat operations, carpet and fabric adhesive
operations, or aluminum recreational boat surface coating operations, the Permittee must use one of the
options in and through m.vi,below.
i. Method 311 (appendix A to 40 CFR part 63). The Permittee may use Method 311 for determining the
mass fraction of organic HAP.Use the procedures specified in Paragraphs m.i(A)and(B),below,when
determining organic HAP content by Method 311.
(A)Include in the organic HAP total each organic HAP that is measured to be present at 0.1 percent by
mass or more for Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)-defined carcinogens as
specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4)and at 1.0 percent by mass or more for other compounds. For
example,if toluene(not an OSHA carcinogen)is measured to be 0.5 percent of the material by mass,
the Permittee does not need to include it in the organic HAP total.Express the mass fraction of each
organic HAP the Permittee measures as a value truncated to four places after the decimal point(for
example, 0.1234).
(B) Calculate the total organic HAP content in the test material by adding up the individual organic HAP
contents and truncating the result to three places after the decimal point(for example, 0.123).
ii. Method 24(appendix A to 40 CFR part 63). The Permittee may use Method 24 to determine the mass
fraction of non-aqueous volatile matter of aluminum coatings and use that value as a substitute for mass
fraction of organic HAP.
iii. ASTM D1259-85 (Standard Test Method for Nonvolatile Content of Resins). The Permittee may use
ASTM D1259-85 (available for purchase from ASTM)to measure the mass fraction of volatile matter
of resins and gel coats for open molding operations and use that value as a substitute for mass fraction
of organic HAP.
iv. Alternative method. The Permittee may use an alternative test method for determining mass fraction of
organic HAP if the Permittee obtains prior approval by EPA Region IV. The Permittee must follow the
procedure in 40 CFR 63.7(f)to submit an alternative test method for approval.
v. Information from the supplier or manufacturer of the material. The Permittee may rely on information
other than that generated by the test methods specified in Paragraphs and through m.iv, above, such as
manufacturer's formulation data,according to Paragraphs m.v(A)through(C),below:
Air Quality Permit No. 07132T13
Page No. 15
(A)Include in the organic HAP total each organic HAP that is present at 0.1 percent by mass or more
for OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) and at 1.0 percent by mass
or more for other compounds. For example, if toluene(not an OSHA carcinogen)is 0.5 percent of
the material by mass,the Permittee does not have to include it in the organic HAP total.
(B) If the organic HAP content is provided by the material supplier or manufacturer as a range,then the
Permittee must use the upper limit of the range for determining compliance. If a separate
measurement of the total organic HAP content using the methods specified in Paragraphs and
through m.iv,above,of this condition exceeds the upper limit of the range of the total organic HAP
content provided by the material supplier or manufacturer,then the Permittee must use the measured
organic HAP content to determine compliance.
(C) If the organic HAP content is provided as a single value, the Permittee may assume the value is a
manufacturing target value and actual organic HAP content may vary from the target value. If a
separate measurement of the total organic HAP content using the methods specified in Paragraphs
and through m.iv, above, less than 2 percentage points higher than the value for total organic HAP
content provided by the material supplier or manufacturer,then the Permittee may use the provided
value to demonstrate compliance. If the measured total organic HAP content exceeds the provided
value by 2 percentage points or more,then the Permittee must use the measured organic HAP content
to determine compliance.
vi. Solvent blends. Solvent blends may be listed as single components for some regulated materials in
certifications provided by manufacturers or suppliers. Solvent blends may contain organic HAP which
must be counted toward the total organic HAP content of the materials. When detailed organic HAP
content data for solvent blends are not available, the Permittee may use the values for organic HAP
content that are listed in Table 5 or 6 as contained in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart VVVV. The Permittee
may use Table 6 as contained in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart VVVV, only if the solvent blends in the
materials the Permittee use do not match any of the solvent blends in Table 5 as contained in 40 CFR
Part 63 Subpart VVVV, and the Permittee know only whether the blend is either aliphatic or aromatic.
However,if test results indicate higher values than those listed in Table 5 or 6 as contained in 40 CFR
Part 63 Subpart VVVV,then the test results must be used for determining compliance.
RecordkeepinZ [15A NCAC 02Q .0508(f); 40 CFR 63.5767; 40 CFR 63.5770]
n. The Permittee shall keep the following records:
