I. GENERAL INFORMATION

District: South Coast Air Quality Management District

Rule No(s): 1145 Date Adopted/Amended/Rescinded: December 04, 2009

Rule Title(s): Plastic, Rubber, Leather, and Glass Coatings

Date Submitted to ARB: January 20, 2010

If an Amended Rule, Date Last Amended (or Adopted ): December 3, 2004

Is the Rule Intended to be sent to the U.S. EPA as a SIP Revision? Yes No (If No, do not complete remainder of form)

District Contact: Mr. Andrew Lee Phone Number: 909-396-2643 E-mail Address: alee@aqmd.gov

Narrative Summary of New Rule or Rule Changes: New Rule Amended Rule

The multi-color coating category maximum allowable VOC limit was reduced from 685 g/L to 680 g/L to be consistent with

U.S. EPA’s CTG limit for this category. A new coating catego ry was added for refrigerated glass doors, of which there are

no lower VOC alternate coatings. The amendment will also include removal of obsolete rule language, minor

clarifications, and editorial corrections.

Pollutant(s) Regulated by the Rule (Check): ROG (NO X ) SO 2 (CO) PM TAC (name):

II. EFFECT ON EMISSIONS

Complete this section ONLY for rules that, when implemented, w ill result in quantifiable changes in emissions. Attach referenc e(s) for emission factor(s)

and other information. Attach calculation sheet showing how the emission information provided below was determined

.

Net Effect on Emissions: Increase* Decrease** N/A

Emission Reduction Commitment in SIP for this Source Category: There will be a modest emission reduction in the

amount of 0.4 lbs/day from the Multi-color Coating Category where the current VOC limit in Rule 1145 is 685 g/L but was

reduced to 680 g/L of VOC to match the suggested guidelines in the Septem ber 2008 U.S. EPA CTG for Multi-color

Coatings. However, there will be emissions forgone by adding a new coating category ti tled "Refrigerat ed Glass Doors"

which will result in 2.1 lbs/day. Combining the emission redu ction from the Multi-color Coating Category with the new

Refrigerated Glass Door Coati ng Category will amount to 1.7 lbs/day of VOC emissions forgone. It should also be noted

that the lone facility that will benefit fr om the Refrigerated Glass Door Coating Category could still use a silk screening

method that would allow them 600 g/L of VOC under Rule 1130.1 – Silk Screening Operations, thus resulting in

significantly more VOC emissions. The new “Refrigerated Gl ass Door Coating” category with a VOC limit of 480 g/L will

allow this facility to streamline its operation by eliminating t he application of coatings through screens and the clean-up of

those screens, resulting in an emission reduction benefit relative to Rule 1130 .1 but a theoretical emission disbenefit

relative to Rule 1145. The calculations are shown in detail in the Final Staff Report.

Inventory Year Used to Calculate Changes in Emissions: CY2007 Area Affected: South Coast AQMD

Future Year Control Profile Estimate (Provide information on as many years as possible) :

Negligible emission impact. Please see paragraph above.12/04/09 CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD

Percent in Nonattainment Area: 0 %

Number of Large ( > 100 TPY) Sources Controlled: 0 Percent in Nonattainment Area: 0 %

Name(s) and Location(s) (city and county) of Large ( > 100 TPY) Sources Controlled by Rule (Attach additional sheets as

necessary) :

IV. EMISSION REDUCTION TECHNOLOGY

Does the Rule Include Emission Limits that are Continuous? Yes No

If Yes, Those Limits are in Section(s) (c) of the Rule.

Other Methods in the Rule for Achieving Emission Reductions are: Work practices, transfer efficiency, optional APCE

V. OTHER REQUIREMENTS

The Rule Contains:

Emission Limits in Section(s): (c) Work Practice Standards in Section(s): (c)

Recordkeeping Requirements in Section(s): (d) Reporting Requirements in Section(s): Only recordkeeping

requirements

VI. IMPACT ON AIR QUALITY PLAN

No Impact Impacts RFP Impacts attainment – emissions forgone

Discussion: Negligible impact on emissions (less than 1.7 lbs/ day). Please see description in Section II above.
