Emission Standards[40 CFR 60A421 b. On or after the date on which the performance test required by 40 CFR 60.8 has been completed,the owner or operator shall: i, cause the discharge into the atmosphere from an affected facility not more than 0.20 kg VOC/kg of coating solids applied as calculated on a weighted average basis for one calendar month;or ii, demonstrate for each affected facility a 90 percent overall VOC emission reduction as calculated over a calendar month,or iii. demonstrate for each affected facility the percent overall VOC emission reduction specified in 40 CFR 60.443(b) as calculated over a calendar month. Compliance[40 CFR 60.443] c. To determine compliance with 40 CFR 60.442,the owner or operator of the affected facility shall calculate a weighted average of the mass of solvent used per mass of coating solids applied for one calendar month period according to the following procedures: i. determine the weight fraction of organics and the weight fraction of solids of each coating applied by using Reference Method 24 or by the coating manufacturer's formulation data. ii, compute the weighted average(referred to as G)by the equation found in 40 CFR 60.443(a)(2). iii, for each affected facility where the value of G is less than or equal to 0.20 kg VOC/kg of coating solids applied, the affected facility is in compliance with 40 CFR 60.442(a)(1). iv. after the initial performance test required for all affected facilities under 40 CFR 60.8,compliance with the VOC emission limitation and percentage reduction requirements under 40 CFR 60.442 is based on the average emission reduction for one calendar month. A separate compliance test is completed at the end of each calendar month after the initial performance test, and a new calendar month's average VOC emission reduction is calculated to show compliance with the standard, v. startups and shutdowns are normal operation for this source category. Emissions from these operations are to be included when determining if the standard specified in 40 CFR 60.442(a)(2)is being attained. The Permittee shall he deemed in noncompliance with 15A NCAC 02D .0524, if the procedures for calculating weighted average of the mass of solvent used per mass of coating solids applied for one calendar month period in Section 2.1 A.2.c,i through v above are not followed or any monthly calculations for weighted average of the mass of solvent used per mass of coatings applied indicate the exceedance of the emission limit in Section 2.1.A.2.b.i. Performance Tests[40 CFR 60,444] d. The performance test for affected facilities complying with 40 CFR 60.442 without the use of add-on controls shall be identical to the procedures specified in 40 CFR 60.443(a).
