Re: Request for Approval of an amended Rule under Chapter 3745-21 of the Ohio

Administrative Code as part of the Ohio State Implementation Plan (SIP).

Dear Ms. Hedman:

This letter is intended to fulfill the requirement in 40 CFR Part 51, Appendix V, Section

2.1 (a) for a formal letter of submittal from the Governor or his designee, requesting EPA

approval of a SIP revision.

The Ohio EPA has adopted amended rule 3745-21-25 of the Ohio Administrative Code

(OAC): "Control of VOC Emissions from Reinforced Plastic Composites Production

Operations."

This rule was originally finalized by Ohio EPA on December 14, 2009 and submitted to

U.S. EPA as a revision to the SIP by letter dated December 22, 2009. Ohio EPA has

redrafted this rule in order to address additional comments by U.S. EPA. Specifically,

paragraphs (A)(2), (A)(2)(e), and (P)(2) of this rule were amended in consultation with U.S.

EPA in order to address their concerns with compliance with the provisions of this rule.

This rule contains requirements that define reasonably available control technology (RACT)

for VOC emissions from reinforced plastic composites production operations and is needed

in order to establish VOC RACT requirements for facilities involved in reinforced plastic

composites production separate from the requirements contained in OAC rule 3745-21-07

(Control of emissions of organic materials from stationary sources). This rule, which is

based upon the work practice standards and emissions limits specified within the MACT

rule for reinforced plastic composites production operations (Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR

Part 63) will apply Statewide. Ohio EPA is requesting that U.S. EPA approve this rule for

incorporation into our SIP.

up-to-date record of the potential to emit for VOC from all reinforced

plastic composites production operations, shall employ emission factors

or emission estimates in the calculation of the potential to emit that

meet the requirements of paragraph (E) of this rule, shall maintain the

records specified in paragraph (P)(2) of this rule for any sheet molding

compound manufacturing machine, and within fifteen days after the end

of each month, and shall maintain a record of the VOC emissions from

any SMC manufacturing machine for the recent month and the rolling

twelve-month period, However, this exclusion is not available for any

facility that has, or once had, #Ie voe effiissisfiS sf a potential to emit

for VOC equal to or greater than 10.0 tons per year for all reinforced

plastic composites production operations combined on or after fwelve

ffiSfl#ls frsffi fhe effeefivs dfrfe sf #lis RIle December 14, 2010.

(3) Upon achieving compliance with this rule, the reinforced plastic composites

production operations at the facility are not required to meet the requirements

Qfrule 3745-21-07 ofthe Administrative Code.

(B) Defmitions.

The definitions applicable to this rule are contained in paragraph (GG) of rule

3745-21-01 ofthe Administrative Code.

(C) Affected operations.

(I) Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (C)(2) and (C)(3) of this rule, the

affected operations consist of all parts of the reinforced plastic composites

production facility engaged in the following operations:

(a) Open molding;

(b) Compression/injection molding;

(c) Centrifugal casting;

(d) Continuous lamination;

(e) Continuous casting;

(f) Polymer casting;
3745-21-25 3

(g) Pultrusion;

(h) Sheet molding compound (SMC) manufacturing;

(i) Bulk molding compound (BMC) manufacturing;

(j) Mixing;

(k) Cleaning of equipment used in reinforced plastic composites manufacture;

(I) VOC-containing materials storage; and

(m) Repair operations on reinforced plastic composites parts that are

manufactured at the facility.

(2) The following operations and materials are specifically excluded from any

requirements in this rule:

(a) Application ofmold sealing and release agents;

(b) Mold stripping and cleaning;

(c) Repair of reinforced plastic composites parts that the facility did not

manufacture, including non-routine manufacturing of parts;

the Revised Code;
3745-21-25 4

(j) Polymer casting; and

(k) Any closed molding operation other than compression/injection molding

(for example, resin transfer molding).

[Note: The exclusion of certain operations from any requirements ofthis rule

applies only to operations specifically listed in this paragraph. The

requirements for any co-located operations still apply. For example, although

polymer casting and resin transfer molding operations are specifically

excluded from the requirements of this rule, any gel coating, mixing,

VOC-containing materials storage, or cleaning operation associated with a

polymer casting operation or a resin transfer molding operation is still subject

to the requirements ofthis rule.]

(3) Production resins that must meet military specifications are allowed to meet the

monomer content limit contained in that specification. In order for this

exemption to be used, the owner or operator shall supply to the appropriate

Ohio environmental protection agency district office or local air agency the

specifications certified as accurate by the military procurement officer, and

those specifications must state a requirement for a specific resin, or a specific

resin monomer content. Production resins for which this exemption is used

shall be applied with nonatomizing resin application equipment unless the

owner or operator can demonstrate this is infeasible. The owner or operator

shall keep a record ofthe resins for which the owner or operator is using this

exemption.

(D) VOC control requirements.

(1) The owner or operator of the reinforced plastic composites production facility

shall meet the work practice standards in table I of this rule for affected

operations.

(2) Ifthe reinforced plastic composites production facility has VOC emissions less

than the threshold of one hundred tons ofVOC per year from the combination

of all open molding, centrifugal casting, continuous lamination/casting,

pultrusion, SMC manufacturing, mixing, and BMC manufacturing, the owner

or operator shall meet the VOC emissions limits in table 2 of this rule. A

facility's VOC emissions threshold shall be calculated in accordance with

paragraph (F) ofthis rule.

(3) Except as provided in paragraph (D)(4) of this rule, if the reinforced plastic

composites production facility has VOC emissions equal to or greater than
3745-21-25 5

the threshold of one hundred tons of VOC per year from the combination of

all open molding, centrifugal casting, continuous laminationlcasting,

pultrusion, SMC manufacturing, mixing, and BMC manufacturing, the owner

or operator shall reduce the total VOC emissions from these operations by at

least ninety-five per cent by weight. As an alternative to meeting ninety-five

per cent by weight, the owner or operator may meet the VOC emissions limits

in table 3 of this rule. A facility's VOC emissions threshold shall be

calculated in accordance with paragraph (F) ofthis rule.

(4) If the reinforced plastic composites production facility manufactures large

reinforced plastic composites parts using open molding or pultrusion

operations, the specific open molding and pultrusion operations used to

produce large parts are not required to reduce VOC emissions by ninety-five

weight per cent, but shall meet the emission limits in table 2 of this rule. A

large open molding part is defined as a part that, when the final finished part

is enclosed in the smallest rectangular six-sided box into which the part can

fit, the total interior volume ofthe box exceeds two hundred fifty cubic feet,

or any interior sides ofthe box exceed fifty square feet. A large pultruded part

is a part that exceeds an outside perimeter oftwenty-four inches or has more

than three hundred fifty reinforcements.

(5) Once a reinforced plastic composites production facility equals or exceeds the

one hundred tons of VOC per year threshold of paragraph (D)(3) of this rule

on or after j;fte effeeli'te clale Elf j;ftis I'I:Ile December 14, 2009, it is always

subject to the requirements of paragraph (D)(3) of this rule, except as

otherwise provided in paragraph (D)(6) ofthis rule.

(6) In the event a reinforced plastic composites production facility equals or

exceeds the one hundred tons of VOC per year threshold of paragraph (D)(3)

of this rule on or after j;fte effeelive clale Elf j;ftis I'I:Ile December 14, 2009, but

reduces its emissions to less than the one hundred tons of VOC per year

threshold by no later than the compliance date of this rule, the facility is not

subject to the requirements of paragraphs (D)(3) of this rule. If such

reinforced plastic composites production facility subsequently equals or

exceeds the one hundred tons of VOC per year threshold of paragraph (D)(3)

of this rule, then it becomes subject to the requirements of paragraph (D)(3)

ofthis rule.

(7) If the reinforced plastic composites production facility has repair operations

subject to this rule, these repair operations shall meet the requirements in

table I and table 2 ofthis rule and are not required to meet the ninety-five per

cent VOC emissions reduction requirement in paragraph (D)(3) ofthis rule.

(8) Except where exempted under paragraph (D)(9) of this rule, any owner or
3745-21-25 6

operator of a SMC manufacturing machine shall install and operate a VOC

emission control system that reduces the VOC emissions from the SMC

manufacturing machine by at least ninety-five per cent by weight (i.e., an

overall control efficiency of at least ninety-five per cent by weight).

(9) Exempted from the requirement of paragraph (D)(8) of this rule is any

uncontrolled SMC manufacturing machine with VOC emissions of less than

25.0 tons per rolling twelve-month period.

(10) If an add-on control device is used to comply with this rule, such add-on

control device shall meet all the requirements contained in 40 CFR Part 63,

Subpart SS. The owner or operator shall also establish each control device

operating limit in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SS, that applies.

(11) Alternative requirements.

The provisions of paragraphs (D)(1) to (D)(10) ofthis rule shall not apply to

any emissions unit that meets the following requirements:

(a) The director has determined that best available technology for the

emissions unit, as required by rule 3745-31-05 of the Administrative

Code, is a control requirement or emission limitation that is either less

stringent than or inconsistent with the requirements of paragraph (D) of

this rule. Best available technology shall be defined in accordance with

division (F) of section 3704.01 of the Revised Code and, for purposes

of this paragraph, shall provide, where an emission limitation is

applicable, the lowest emission limitation that the emissions unit is

capable of meeting by the application of control technology that is

reasonably available considering technological and economic

feasibility. Also, for an emissions unit located within an ozone

nonattainment area, the best available technology determination must

comply with section 193 (general savings clause) ofthe Clean Air Act

t\:flleflElflleflts sf 1990.

(b) The U.s. ellVifSfllflelllal ]9fslee!isfl agefley USEPA has informed the Ohio

EPA, in writing, prior to the issuance of a final ]geffllil Is iflstall

permit-to-install for the emissions unit, that the agency has no objection

to the issuance of the final permit and the control requirement or

emission limitation specified therein.

(c) A fmal ]geffllit ts iflslall permit-to-install has been issued for the emissions

unit pursuant to Chapter 3745-31 of the Administrative Code. The

]geffllit ts iflstall permit-to-install shall contain terms and conditions that
3745-21-25 7

specify the control requirement or emission limitation that is the basis

for the director's best available technology determination for the

emissions unit, as described in paragraph (D)(ll)(a) ofthis rule, and the

flel'ffiit te iflSteJI permit-to-install shall be issued by the Ohio EPA in a

manner that makes the control requirement or emission limitation

federally enforceable.

(d) USEPA has approved the alternative limitation as a revision to the Ohio

state implementation plan.

(E) Procedures for determination of VOC emiSSIOns factors for reinforced plastic

composites production operations and determination of monomer content of resins

and gel coats.

(l) Emissions factors are used in this rule to determine compliance with certain

VOC emissions limits in table 2 and table 3 ofthis rule and to calculate VOC

emissions. A person may use the equations in table 1 to Subpart WWWW of

40 CFR 63 to calculate such emissions factors or may use any VOC

emissions factor approved by USEPA, such as emission factors or emission

factor equations from AP-42. These equations and emissions factors are

intended to provide a method for one to demonstrate compliance without the

need to conduct a VOC emissions test. In lieu of these equations and

emissions factors, the owner or operator can elect to use site-specific VOC

emissions factors to demonstrate compliance and to calculate VOC emissions

provided the site-specific VOC emissions factors are incorporated in the

facility's air emissions permit and are based on actual facility VOC emissions

test data using the test procedures in 40 CFR 63.5850 or paragraph (C) ofrule

3745-21-10 of the Administrative Code. Stack test data for the facility shall

supersede emission factors and other emission estimating techniques.

(2) In order to determine the monomer content ofresins and gel coats, the owner or

operator may rely on infonnation provided by the material manufacturer,

such as manufacturer's fonnulation data and material safety data sheets

(MSDS), using the procedures specified in paragraphs (E)(2)(a) to (E)(2)(c)

ofthis rule, as applicable.

(a) Include in the total monomer content each monomer compound that is

present at 0.1 per cent by mass or more for OSHA-defined carcinogens,

as specified in 29 CFR 191O.1200(d)(4) and at 1.0 per cent by mass or

more for other monomer compounds.

(b) If the monomer content is provided by the material supplier or

manufacturer as a range, the owner or operator shall use the upper limit
3745-21-25 8

of the range for determining compliance. If a separate measurement of

the total monomer content, such as an analysis of the material by

USEPA method 311 of appendix A to 40 CFR Part 63, exceeds the

upper limit of the range of the total monomer content provided by the

material supplier or manufacturer, then the owner or operator shall use

the measured monomer content to determine compliance.

(c) If the monomer content is provided as a single value, the owner or

operator may use that value to determine compliance. If a separate

measurement ofthe total monomer content is made and is less than two

percentage points higher than the value for total monomer content

provided by the material supplier or manUfacturer, then the owner or

operator still may use the provided value to demonstrate compliance. If

the measured total monomer content exceeds the provided value by two

percentage points or more, then the owner or operator shall use the

measured total monomer content to determine compliance.

(F) Calculation offacility's VOC emissions threshold.

(1) To calculate the facility's VOC emissions threshold in tons per year for

purposes of determining which requirements apply under paragraph (D) of

this rule, the owner or operator shall use the procedures in either paragraph

(F)(2) ofthis rule for new facilities prior to startup, or paragraph (F)(3) ofthis

rule for existing facilities and new facilities after startup. A facility's VOC

emissions threshold pertains to the following operations: open molding,

centrifugal casting, continuous lamination/casting, pultrusion, SMC

manufacturing, mixing, and BMC manufacturing. The owner or operator is

not required to calculate or report emissions under this paragraph if the

facility does not have any of those operations. However, emissions

calculation and emission reporting procedures in other paragraphs ofthis rule

still apply. For the facility's VOC emissions threshold, calculate VOC

emissions prior to any add-on control device, and do not include VOC

emissions from any resin or gel coat used in operations subject to the boat

manufacturing NESHAP, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart VVVV, or from the

manufacture of large parts as defined in paragraph (D)(4) ofthis rule. A "new

facility" means a facility that has one or more operations specified in

paragraph (F)(l) ofthis rule in which all such operations have a startup on or

after the effeetive Elate ef this lUleDecember 14. 2009. An "existing facility"

means a facility that has one or more operations specified in paragraph (F)(I)

ofthis rule in which and at least one such operation has a startup prior to the

effeetive Elate efthis lUle December 14.2009.

(2) For new facilities prior to startup, the owner or operator shall calculate a

weighted average VOC emissions factor for the operations specified in
3745-21-25 9

paragraph (F)(l) ofthis rule on a pounds ofVOC per ton ofresin, monomer,

or gel coat basis. Base the weighted average on the projected operation for the

twelve months subsequent to facility startup. Multiply the weighted average

VOC emissions factor by projected resin, monomer, or gel coat use over the

same period. The owner or operator may calculate a VOC emissions factor

based on the factors in table 1 to Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR 63, or may use

any VOC emissions factor approved by USEPA, such as factors from AP-42,

or VOC emissions test data from similar facilities. The organic HAP

emissions factors in table 1 to Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR 63 are equivalent

to the VOC emissions factors for this rule.

(3) For existing facilities and new facilities after startup, the owner or operator may

use the procedures in either paragraph (F)(3)(a) or (F)(3)(b) of this rule for

the operations specified in paragraph (F)(l) of this rule. If the emission

factors for an existing facility have changed over the period of time prior to

its initial compliance date due to incorporation of pollution-prevention

control techniques, the existing facility may base the average emission factor

on its operations as they exist on the compliance date. If an existing or new

facility has accepted an enforceable pennit limit that would result in less than

one hundred tons per year (per rolling twelve-month period) of VOC

measured prior to any add-on controls, and can demonstrate that it will

operate at that level subsequent to the compliance date, it can be deemed to

be below the one hundred tons per year threshold.

(a) Use a calculated emission factor.

Calculate a weighted average VOC emissions factor on a pounds per

ton ofresin, monomer, or gel coat basis. Base the weighted average on

the prior twelve months of operation. Multiply the weighted average

VOC emissions factor by resin, monomer, or gel coat use over the same

period. The owner or operator may calculate this VOC emissions factor

based on the equations in table 1 to subpart WWWW of 40 CFR 63, or

the owner or operator may use any VOC emissions factor approved by

USEPA, such as emission factors or emission factor equations from

AP-42, or site-specific VOC emissions factors if they are supported by

VOC emissions test data. The organic HAP emissions factors in table I

to Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR 63 are equivalent to the VOC emissions

factors for this rule.

(b) Conduct perfonnance testing.

Conduct performance testing using the test procedures in 40 CFR

63.5850 or paragraph (C) of rule 3745-21-10 of the Administrative

Code to detennine a site-specific VOC emissions factor in units of
3745-21-25 10

pounds of VOC per ton of resin, monomer, or gel coat used. Conduct

the test under conditions expected to result in the highest possible VOC

emissions. Multiply this factor by annual resin, monomer, or gel coat

use to determine annual VOC emissions. This calculation shall be

repeated and reported annually.

(c) Pultrusion operations.

For pultrusion operations employing enclosures or resin injection

(direct or preform) pursuant to paragraph (I)(5)(b) of this rule, actual

emissions may be calculated as four tenths and one tenth, respectively,

of open line emissions, where open line emissions are calculated as

specified in air permits covering these operations.

(4) Existing facilities shall initially perform this calculation based on their twelve

months of operation prior to the effeetive afrte ef this rule December 14,

2009, and include this information with their applicability notification report.

Existing facilities shall repeat the calculation based on their resin, monomer,

and gel coat use in the twelve months prior to their compliance date, and

submit this information with their initial compliance report.

(5) After the initial compliance date, existing and new facilities shall calculate VOC

emissions over the twelve-month period ending June thirtieth or December

thirty-first, whichever date is the first date following the compliance date

specified in paragraph (R) of this rule. Subsequent calculations should cover

the periods in the semiannual compliance reports.

(G) Options for meeting the VOC emissions limits for open molding and centrifugal

casting operations.

The owner or operator shall use one ofthe following methods in paragraphs (G)(l)

to (G)(4) of this rule to meet the VOC emissions limits for open molding or

centrifugal casting operations specified in table 2 or table 3 ofthis rule. The owner

or operator may use any control method that reduces VOC emissions, including

reducing resin and gel coat monomer content, changing to nonatomized mechanical

application, using covered curing techniques, and routing part or all of the VOC

emissions to an add-on control. The owner or operator may use different

compliance options for the different operations listed in table 2 or table 3 of this

rule. The necessary calculations shall be completed within thirty days after the end
3745-21-25 11

of each month. The owner or operator may switch between the compliance options

in paragraphs (0)(1) to (0)(4) ofthis rule. When the owner or operator changes to

an option based on a twelve-month rolling average, the owner or operator shall base

the average on the previous twelve months of data calculated using the compliance

option the owner or operator is changing to, unless the owner or operator was

previously using an option that did not require the owner or operator to maintain

records of resin and gel coat use. In this case, the owner or operator shall

immediately begin collecting resin and gel coat use data and demonstrate

compliance twelve months after changing options.

(1) Demonstrate that an individual resin or gel coat, as applied, meets the applicable

emission limit in table 2 or table 3 ofthis rule.

(a) Calculate the actual VOC emissions factor for each different process

stream within each operation type. A process stream is defined as each

individual combination of resin or gel coat, application technique, and

control technique. Process streams within operations types are

considered different from each other if any of the following four

characteristics vary: the neat resin plus or neat gel coat plus monomer

content, the gel coat type, the application technique, or the control

technique. The owner or operator shall calculate VOC emissions factors

for each different process stream by using the appropriate equations in

table 1 to Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR 63 for open molding and for

centrifugal casting, or site-specific VOC emissions factors discussed in

paragraph (E) of this rule. The emission factor calculation should

include any and all emission reduction techniques used including any

add-on controls. If vapor suppressants are used to reduce VOC

emissions, the owner or operator shall determine the vapor suppressant

effectiveness (VSE) by conducting testing according to the procedures

specified in appendix A to Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR part 63. If an

add-on control device is used to reduce VOC emissions, the owner or

operator shall determine the add-on control factor by conducting

capture and control efficiency testing using the procedures specified in

40 CFR 63.5850. The VOC emissions factor calculated from the

equations in table 1 to Subpart WWWW of 40 CFR 63, or a

site-specific emissions factor, is multiplied by the add-on control factor

to calculate the VOC emissions factor after control. The add-on control

factor used in the VOC emissions factor equations is calculated from

the following equation:

Add C; I F 1 % Control Efficiency -on ontro actor = - --------- 100
3745-21-25 12

where:

Per cent control efficiency = value calculated from VOC emissions test

measurements made according to the requirements of 40 CFR 63.5850.

(b) If the calculated emission factor is less than or equal to the appropriate

emission limit, the owner or operator has demonstrated that this process

stream complies with the emission limit in table 2 of this rule. It is not

necessary that all process streams, considered individually, demonstrate

compliance to use this option for some process streams. However, for

any individual resin or gel coat being used, if any ofthe process streams

that include that resin or gel coat are to be used in any averaging

calculations described in paragraphs (G)(2) to (G)(4) of this rule, then

all process streams using that individual resin or gel coat shall be

included in the averaging calculations.

(2) Demonstrate that, on average, the individual VOC emissions limits for each

unique combination of operation type and resin application method or gel

coat type shown in table 2 ofthis rule that applies to the facility are met.

(a) Group the process streams described in paragraph (G)(1) of this rule by

operation type and resin application method or gel coat type listed in

table 2 of this rule and then calculate a weighted average emission

factor based on the amounts of each individual resin or gel coat used for

the last twelve months. To do this, sum the product of each individual

VOC emissions factor calculated in paragraph (G)(l)(a) ofthis rule and

the amount of neat resin plus and neat gel coat plus usage that

corresponds to the individual factors and divide the numerator by the

total amount of neat resin plus and neat gel coat plus used in that

operation type as shown in the following equation:

during the last twelve calendar months for process stream i, tons.

n = number of process streams where the owner or operator calculated a

VOC emissions factor.

(b) The owner or operator may, but is not required to, include process streams

where the owner or operator has demonstrated compliance as described

in paragraph (G)(l) of this rule, subject to the limitations described in

paragraph (G)(l)(b) of this rule, and the owner or operator is not

required to and should not include process streams for which the owner

or operator will demonstrate compliance using the procedures in

paragraph (G)(4) ofthis rule.

(c) Compare each VOC emissions factor calculated in paragraph (G)(2)(a) of

this rule with its corresponding VOC emissions limit in table 2 or table

3 of this rule. If all emissions factors are equal to or less than their

corresponding emission limits, then the operation is in compliance.

(3) Demonstrate compliance with a weighted average VOC emissions limit.

Demonstrate each month that each weighted average of the VOC emissions

limits in table 2 or table 3 of this rule that apply are being met. When using

this option, the owner or operator shall demonstrate compliance with the

weighted average VOC emissions limit for all open molding operations, and

then separately demonstrate compliance with the weighted average VOC

emissions limit for all centrifugal casting operations. Open molding

operations and centrifugal casting operations may not be averaged with each

other.

(a) Each month calculate the weighted average VOC emissions limit for all

open molding operations and the weighted average VOC emissions

limit for all centrifugal casting operations for the facility for the last

twelve-month period to determine the VOC emissions limit the owner

or operator shall meet. To do this, multiply the individual VOC

emissions limits in table 2 or table 3 of this rule for each open molding

(centrifugal casting) operation type by the amount of neat resin plus or

neat gel coat plus used in the last twelve months for each open molding

(centrifugal casting) operation type, sum these results, and then divide

this sum by the total amount of neat resin plus and neat gel coat plus

used in open molding (centrifugal casting) over the last twelve months

as shown in the following equation:

(b) Each month calculate the weighted average VOC emissions factor for

open molding and centrifugal casting. To do this, multiply the actual

open molding (centrifugal casting) operation VOC emissions factors

calculated in paragraph (G)(2)(a) of this rule and the amount of neat

resin plus and neat gel coat plus used in each open molding (centrifugal

casting) operation type, sum the results, and divide this sum by the total

amount of neat resin plus and neat gel coat plus used in open molding

(c) Compare the values calculated in paragraphs (G)(3)(a) and (G)(3)(b) of
3745-21-25 15

this rule. If each twelve-month rolling average VOC emissions factor is

less than or equal to the corresponding twelve-month rolling average

VOC emissions limit, then the operation is in compliance.

(4) Meet the VOC emissions limit for one application method and use the same

resins for all application methods ofthat resin type.

This option is limited to resins of the same type. The resin types for which

this option may be used are noncorrosion-resistant, cOlTOsion-resistant andlor

high strength, and tooling.

(a) For any combination of manual resin application, mechanical resin

application, filament application, or centrifugal casting, the owner or

operator may elect to meet the VOC emissions limit for anyone of

these application methods and use the same resin in all of the resin

application methods listed in this paragraph. Table 4 of this rule

presents the possible combinations based on the owner or operator

selecting the application process that results in the highest allowable

monomer content resin. If the resin's monomer content is below the

applicable value shown in the table 4 of this rule, the resin is in

compliance.

(b) The owner or operator may also use a weighted average monomer content

for each application method described in paragraph (G)(4)(a) of this

rule. Calculate the weighted average monomer content monthly. Use

the equation in paragraph (G)(2)(a) of this rule except substitute

monomer content for VOC emissions factor. The operation is in

compliance if the weighted average monomer content based on the last

twelve months of resin use is less than or equal to the applicable

monomer contents in the table 4 ofthis rule.

(c) The owner or operator may simultaneously use the averaging provisions

in paragraph (G)(2) or (G)(3) ofthis rule to demonstrate compliance for

any operations andlor resins the owner or operator does not include in

the compliance demonstrations in paragraphs (G)(4)(a) and (G)(4)(b) of

this rule. However, any resins for which the owner or operator claims

compliance under the option in paragraphs (G)(4)(a) and (G)(4)(b) of

this rule shall not be included in any of the averaging calculations

described in paragraph (G)(2) or (G)(3) ofthis rule.

(d) The owner or operator does not have to keep records of resin use for any

of the individual resins where the owner or operator demonstrates

compliance under the option in paragraph (G)(4)(a) of this rule unless

the owner or operator elects to include that resin in the averaging
3745-21-25

calculations described in paragraph (G)(4)(b) ofthis rule.

16

(H) Options for meeting the VOC emissions limits for continuous lamination/casting

operations.

For continuous casting/lamination operations, the owner or operator shall use one

or more of the options listed in paragraphs (H)(l) to (H)(4) ofthis rule to meet the

VOC emissions limits specified in table 2 or table 3 of this rule and shall use the

calculation procedures provided in paragraphs (J) to (M) ofthis rule.

closed whenever resin is in the bath, except for the time period

discussed in paragraph (I)(2)(i) ofthis rule.

(i) The maximum length of time the enclosure may be removed from the

pultrusion line or the access panels, doors, and/or hatches and may be

open, is thirty minutes per eight-hour shift, forty-five minutes per

twelve-hour shift, or ninety minutes per day if the machine is operated

for twenty-four hours in a day. The time restrictions do not apply ifthe

open doors or panels do not cause the limit of two times the puller

window area to be exceeded. Facilities may average the times that

access panels, doors, and/or hatches are open across all operating lines.

In that case the average shall not exceed the times shown in this

paragraph. All lines included in the average shall have operated the

entire time period being averaged.

G) No fans, blowers, and/or air lines may be allowed within the enclosure.

purposes, zero reduction credit is earned during production on lines that

have not installed and operated enclosures or injection systems as

described in paragraphs (1)(2) to (1)(4) ofthis rule.

(J) Calculation of annual uncontrolled and controlled VOC emissions from wet-out

area(s) and oven(s) for continuous lamination/casting operations.

To calculate the annual uncontrolled and controlled VOC emissions from the

wet-out areas and from the ovens of continuous lamination/casting operations, the

owner or operator shall develop uncontrolled and controlled wet-out area and

uncontrolled and controlled oven VOC emissions estimation equations or factors to

apply to each formula applied on each line, determine how much of each formula

for each end product is applied each year on each line, and assign uncontrolled and

controlled wet-out area and uncontrolled and controlled oven VOC emissions

estimation equations or factors to each formula. The owner or operator shall

determine the overall capture efficiency using the procedures in 40 CFR 63.5850.

(I) To develop uncontrolled and controlled VOC emissions estimation equations

and factors, the owner or operator shall, at a minimum, do the following, as

specified in paragraphs (J)(I)(a) to (J)(I)(f) ofthis rule:

(a) Identify each end product and the thickness of each end product produced

on the line. Separate end products into the following end product

groupings, as applicable: corrosion-resistant gel coated end products,

noncorrosion-resistant gel coated end products, corrosion-resistant

non-gel coated end products, and noncorrosion-resistant non-gel coated

end products. This step creates end product/thickness combinations.

(b) IdentifY each formula used on the line to produce each end

product/thickness combination. Identify the amount of each such
3745-21-25 20

formula applied per year. Rank each formula used to produce each end

product/thickness combination according to usage within each end

product/thickness combination.

(c) For each end product/thickness combination being produced, select the

formula with the highest usage rate for testing.

(d) If not already selected, also select the worst-case formula (likely to be

associated with the formula with the highest monomer content, type of

monomer, application of gel coat, thin product, low line speed, higher

resin table temperature) amongst all formulae. (The owner or operator

may use the results of the worst-case formula test for all formulae if

desired to limit the amount oftesting required.)

(e) For each formula selected for testing, conduct at least one test (consisting

of three runs). During the test, track information on monomer content

and type of monomer, end product thickness, line speed, and resin

temperature on the wet-out area table.

(f) Using the test results, develop uncontrolled and controlled VOC emissions

estimation equations (or factors) or series of equations (or factors) that

best fit the results for estimating uncontrolled and controlled VOC

emissions, taking into account the monomer content and type of

monomer, end product thickness, line speed, and resin temperature on

the wet-out area table.

(2) In lieu of using the method specified in paragraph (1)(1) of this rule for

developing uncontrolled and controlled VOC emissions estimation equations

and factors, the owner or operator may use either method specified in

paragraphs (J)(2)(a) and (J)(2)(b) ofthis rule, as applicable.

(a) For either uncontrolled or controlled VOC emissions estimates, the owner

or operator may use previously established, facility-specific VOC

emissions equations or factors, provided they allow estimation of both

wet-out area and oven VOC emissions, where necessary, and have been

approved by the appropriate Ohio environmental protection agency

district office or local air agency. If a previously established equation or

factor is specific to the wet-out area only, or to the oven only, then the

owner or operator shall develop the corresponding uncontrolled or

controlled equation or factor for the other VOC emissions source.

(b) For uncontrolled (controlled) VOC emissions estimates, the owner or

operator may use controlled (uncontrolled) VOC emissions estimates
3745-21-25 21

and control device destruction efficiency to calculate your uncontrolled

(controlled) VOC emissions provided the control device destruction

efficiency was calculated at the same time the owner or operator

collected the data to develop your facility's controlled (uncontrolled)

VOC emissions estimation equations and factors.

(3) The owner or operator shall assign to each formula an uncontrolled VOC

emissions estimation equation or factor based on the end product/thickness

combination for which that formula is used.

(4) Calculation of annual uncontrolled and annual controlled VOC emissions from

wet-out areas and ovens.

(a) To calculate the annual uncontrolled VOC emissions from wet-out areas

that do not have any capture and control and from wet-out areas that are

captured by an enclosure, but are vented to the atmosphere and not to a

control device, multiply each formula's annual usage by its appropriate

VOC emissions estimation equation or factor and sum the individual

results.

(b) To calculate the annual uncontrolled VOC emissions that escape from the

enclosure on the wet-out area, multiply each formula's annual usage by

its appropriate uncontrolled VOC emissions estimation equation or

factor, sum the individual results, and multiply the summation by one

minus the per cent capture (expressed as a fraction).

(c) To calculate the annual uncontrolled oven VOC emissions, multiply each

formula's annual usage by its appropriate uncontrolled VOC emissions

estimation equation or factor and sum the individual results.

(d) To calculate the annual controlled VOC emissions, multiply each

formula's annual usage by its appropriate VOC emissions estimation

equation or factor and sum the individual results to obtain total annual

controlled VOC emissions.

(5) Where a facility is calculating both uncontrolled and controlled VOC emissions

estimation equations and factors, the owner or operator shall test the same

formulae. In addition, the owner or operator shall develop both sets of

equations and factors from the same tests.

(K) Determination ofthe capture efficiency of the enclosure on the wet-out area and the

capture efficiency of oven(s) for continuous lamination/casting operations.
3745-21-25 22

(1) The capture efficiency of a wet-out area enclosure is assumed to be one hundred

per cent if it meets the design and operation requirements for a permanent

total enclosure (PTE) specified in USEPA method Method 204 of Appendix

M to 40 CFR Part 51. If a PTE does not exist, then a temporary total

enclosure shall be constructed and verified using USEPA method Method

204, and capture efficiency testing shall be determined using USEPA

methods Methods 204B to E ofAppendix M to 40 CFR Part 51.

(2) The capture efficiency of an oven is to be considered one hundred per cent,

provided the oven is operated under negative pressure.

(L) Procedures to determine how much neat resin plus is applied to the line and how

much neat gel coat plus is applied to the line for continuous lamination/casting

operations.

Use the following procedures to determine how much neat resin plus and neat gel

coat plus is applied to the line each year:

(I) Track formula usage by end product/thickness combinations.

(2) Use in-house records to show usage. This may be either from automated

systems or manual records.

(3) Record daily the usage of each formula/end product combination on each line.

This is to be recorded at the end of each run ( i.e., when a changeover in

formula or product is made) and at the end of each shift.

(4) Sum the amounts from the daily records to calculate annual usage of each

formula/end product combination by line.

(M) Calculation of per cent reduction to demonstrate compliance for continuous

lamination/casting operations.

The owner or operator shall calculate per cent reduction for continuous

lamination/casting operations using any of the methods specified in paragraphs

the affected operations according to the methods specified in

paragraphs (O)(1)(a)(i) to (O)(l)(a)(iv) ofthis rule.

(i) Compliance with VOC emissions limits for affected operations using

add-on control devices is demonstrated by following the

procedures in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SS, which include the use

of continuous parameter monitors. Affected operations using

add-on control devices may also use continuous emissions

monitors to demonstrate continuous compliance as an alternative

to continuous parameter monitors.

maintaining a VOC emissions factor value less than or equal to

the appropriate VOC emissions limit listed in table 2 or table 3 of

this rule, on a twelve-month rolling average, and/or by including

in each compliance report a statement that individual resins and

gel coats, as applied, meet the appropriate VOC emissions limits,

as discussed in paragraph (O)(2)(c) ofthis rule.

(iii) Compliance with monomer content limits in table 4 of this rule is

demonstrated by maintaining an average monomer content value

less than or equal to the appropriate monomer contents listed in

table 4 of this rule, on a twelve-month rolling average, and/or by

gel coats individually meet the appropriate monomer content

limits in table 4 of this rule, as discussed in paragraph (G)(4)(d)

ofthis rule.

(iv) Compliance with the work practice standards in table 1 of this rule

is demonstrated by performing the work practice required for the

affected operation.

operate the affected operation to minimize emissions to the greatest

extent which is consistent with safety and good air pollution control

practice.

(e) Deviations that occur during a period of malfunction for those affected

operations and standards specified in paragraph (O)(I)(d) of this rule

are not violations ifthe owner or operator demonstrates to the director's

satisfaction that the owner or operator was operating in accordance with

paragraph (O)(I)(d) of this rule. The director will determine whether

deviations that occur during a period of startup, shutdown, and

malfunction are violations.

(2) Monitoring and data collection requirements to demonstrate continuous

compliance.

(a) If using an add-on control device, the owner or operator shall during

production collect and keep a record of data as indicated in 40 CFR Part

paragraphs (O)(2)(a)(i) to (O)(2)(a)(iv) ofthis rule.

(i) Except for monitoring malfunctions, associated repairs, and required

quality assurance or control activities (including, as applicable,

calibration checks and required zero and span adjustments), the

owner or operator shall conduct all monitoring in continuous

operation (or collect data at all required intervals) at all times that

the controlled operation is operating.

(ii) The owner or operator may not use data recorded during monitoring

malfunctions, associated repairs, and required quality assurance

or control activities for purposes of this rule, including data

averages and calculations, or fulfilling a minimum data

availability requirement, if applicable. The owner or operator

shall use all the data collected during all other periods in

assessing the operation of the control device and associated

control system.
3745-21-25 29

(iii) At all times, the owner or operator shall maintain necessary parts

for routine repairs ofthe monitoring equipment.

(iv) A monitoring malfunction is any sudden, infrequent, not reasonably

preventable failure of the monitoring equipment to provide valid

data. Monitoring failures that are caused in part by poor

maintenance or careless operation are not malfunctions.

(b) For meeting any VOC emissions limits based on a VOC emissions limit

specified in table 2 or table 3 of this rule, the owner or operator shall

collect and keep records of resin and gel coat use, monomer content,

and operation where the resin is used. If the owner or operator is

averaging monomer contents to meet any monomer content limits

specified in table 4 of this rule, the owner or operator shall collect and

keep records ofresin and gel coat use, monomer content, and operation

where the resin is used. Resin use records may be based on purchase

records if the owner or operator can reasonably estimate how the resin

is applied. The monomer content records may be based on MSDS or on

resin specifications supplied by the resin supplier.

(c) Resin and gel coat use records are not required for the individual resins

and gel coats that are demonstrated, as applied, to meet their applicable

emission limit as defined in paragraph (G)(l) ofthis rule. However, the

owner or operator shall retain the records of resin and gel coat

monomer content, and the owner or operator shall include the list of

these resins and gel coats and identifY their application methods in the

semiannual compliance reports. If after the owner or operator has

initially demonstrated that a specific combination of an individual resin

or gel coat, application method, and controls meets an applicable

emission limit, and the resin or gel coat changes or the monomer

content increases, or the owner or operator changes the application

method or controls, then the owner or operator again shall demonstrate

that the individual resin or gel coat meets its emission limit as specified

in paragraph (G)(l) of this rule. If any of the previously mentioned

changes results in a situation where an individual resin or gel coat

exceeds its applicable emission limit in table 2 or table 3 of this rule,

the owner or operator shall begin collecting resin and gel coat use

records and calculate compliance using one ofthe averaging options on

a twelve-month rolling average.

(d) For each pultrusion machine, the owner or operator shall record all times

that doors or covers of wet area enclosures are open and there is resin

present in the resin bath.

of VOC per ton ofresin or gel coat (pounds per ton). The operation shall be at or below

these values based on a twelve-month rolling average. .

2This emission limit applies regardless of whether the shrinkage controlled resin is used

as a production resin or a tooling resin.

3If applying gel coat with manual application, for compliance purposes treat the gel coat

as if it were applied using atomized spray guns to detennine both emission limits and

emission factors. If using multiple application methods and any portion of a specific gel

coat is applied using nonatomized spray, the owner or operator may use the nonatomized

spray gel coat equation to calculate an emission factor for the manually applied portion of

that gel coat. Otherwise, use the atomized spray gel coat application equation to calculate

emission factors.

4Por compliance purposes, calculate the VOC emission factor using only the appropriate

centrifugal casting equation in item 2 of table 1 to 40 CPR 63 Subpart WWWW, or a

site-specific emission factor for after the mold is closed as discussed in paragraph (E)(1)

ofthis rule.

5Calculate your emission factor using the appropriate open molding covered cure

emission factor in item 1 of table 1 to 40 CPR Part 63, Subpart WWWW, or a

site-specific emission factor as discussed in paragraph (E)(1) ofthis rule.

6Pultrusion machines that produce parts that meet the following criteria: one thousand or

more reinforcements or the glass equivalent of one thousand ends of one hundred thirteen

yield roving or more; and have a cross sectional area ofsixty square inches or more are

not subject to this requirement. Their requirement is the work practice of air flow

management which is described in table 1'ofthis rule.

Table 3: Alternative VOC emissions limits for open molding, centrifugal casting, and

continuous lamination/casting operations at facilities with VOC emissions equal to or

lamination/casting

IFor open molding and centrifugal casting operations, the VOC emissions limits are

expressed as ponnds of VOC per ton of resin or gel coat used (pound per ton). For a

continuous lamination/casting operation, the VOC emissions limit is expressed as ponnds

of VOC per ton of neat resin plus and neat gel coat plus used. The operations shall be at

or below these values based on a twelve-month rolling average.

2These limits are for spray application of gel coat. Manual gel coat application shall be

included as part of spray gel coat application for compliance purposes using the same

VOC emissions factor equation and VOC emissions limit. If only gel coat is applied with

manual application, treat the manually applied gel coat as if it were applied with

atomized spray for compliance detenninations.

JCentrifugal casting operations where the mold is not vented during spinning and cure are

considered to be closed molding and are not subject to any emissions limit. Centrifugal

casting operations where the mold is not vented during spinning and cure, and the resin is

applied to the open centrifugal casting mold using mechanical or manual open molding

resin application techniques are considered to be open molding operations and the

appropriate open molding emission limits apply.

4Centrifugal casting operations where the mold is vented during spinning and the resin is

applied to the open centrifugal casting mold using mechanical or manual open molding

resin application techniques, are to use the appropriate centrifugal casting emission limit

to detennine compliance. Calculate the emission factor using the appropriate centrifugal
3745-21-25 45

casting emission factor in table I to Subpart WWWW of 40 CPR 63, or a site-specific

emissions factor as discussed in paragraph (E)(l) ofthis rule.

Table 4: Options allowing use ofthe same resin across different operations that use the

Evidence Ohio EPA

Followed Rule Adoption

Procedures
Evidence Ohio EPA Followed Rule Adoption Procedures

Ohio Revised Code (ORC) 119.03, Procedures for adoption, amendment, or rescission of

rules; finding that fiscal analysis is incomplete or inaccurate, outlines the requirements

Ohio EPA must follow during the rule-making process. A copy of ORC 119.03 can be

provided upon request. Ohio EPA fully complied with the requirements of this law and has

provided evidence on the major requirements below:

1. ORC 119.03(A): Reasonable public notice shall be given in the register of Ohio at

least 30 days prior to the date set for a hearing.

Ohio's electronic rule filing system automatically posts public notices in the Ohio

Register when rules are proposed. A copy of the Public Hearing notice can be

provided upon request. The Public Hearing notice was placed in the Ohio Register

on August 27, 2010. Ohio EPA held a public hearing on October 6, 2010 in

Columbus, Ohio. This hearing was held 40 days after the notice was placed in the

register. The ORC 119.03 requirements for public notice contents were met as

evidenced by comparing the public notice and ORC 119.03 (A)(1 )-(4). In addition to

the Register of Ohio, Ohio EPA also placed an advertisement in the major

newspapers throughout the state. Copies can be provided upon request.

2. ORC 119.03(B): The required materials must be filed with the secretary of state and

the director of the legislative service commission (LSC).

Ohio's electronic filing system automatically generates a letter when all the required

elements have been uploaded on the system and the package is proposed. This

letter is included (Attachment A).

Ohio EPA also complied with all requirements for incorporated materials. In

addition, the answers to questions eight and nine of each of the Rule Summary and

Fiscal Analysis (RSFA) documents are provided (Attachment B).

3. ORC 119.03(C): Conduct public hearings as advertised.

Ohio EPA conducted the public hearing on October 6, 2010 as identified in the

Public Hearing notice. A copy of the hearings transcript may be provided upon

request.

4. ORC 119.03(0): After the period of time when legislative review and invalidation

may occur expires, the agency may issue an order adopting the rule.

The Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review (JCARR) oversees agency rule

making in Ohio. A hearing for this rule was held with JCARR on October 25, 2010

where these rules were placed on the consent agenda (Attachment C). No

testimony, questions or invalidation of this rule occurred during this hearing. JCARR

jurisdiction expired on October 31, 2010 as evidenced by the JCARR consent

agenda.
Ohio EPA issued the order to adopt this rule on November 1, 2010 as evidenced by

the Director's Findings & Orders and the Public Notice (both contained in Article 2).

The Secretary of the State and Director of the LSC once again received a letter of

notice (Attachment D).

5. ORC 119.03(E): Provide notice to public prior to effective date of rule.

Ohio EPA provided an update of the adoption of the rule through the Ohio EPA

website, the Register of Ohio, and through an e-mail notice to all interested parties

on June 23, 2010. Copies of these notifications can be provided upon request.

ORC 121.39, Provisions applicable to proposed legislation or administrative rules

conceming environmental protection, imposes further requirements for interested party

review specific to environmental rule adoption. Ohio EPA fully complied with the

requirements of this law and has provided evidence on the major requirements below:

1. ORC 121.39(B): Legislation dealing with the environment must be accompanied by

a statement identifying if it is necessary to comply with a federal requirement. It

must also include information on the estimated cost of compliance.

The RSFA and Environmental Rule Adoption/Amendment Form (ERAF) documents

are automatically generated questions that are part of the States electronic rule

filing system (Attachment B). The questions are intended to address the items in

ORC 121.39. As evidenced in item (C) of the ERAF for each rule, Ohio EPA stated

the adoption of the rule, or a version as stringent as, is required in order to maintain

approval to administer a federal environmental law. The RSFA documents also

contain a section entitled Fiscal Analysis which addresses potential costs. Our

responses met the requirements of this law as evidenced in the consent by JCARR

who reviews these documents.

2. ORC 121.39(0): Prior to adopting any environmental rule, the agency must consult

with interested parties, consider all documentation relevant to the need for the rule

making, identify any need to adopt in order to maintain approval to administer a

federal environmental law, and it must include an RSFA.

On June 23,2010 Ohio EPA notified interested parties via e-mail of the draft rule

language. A copy of the notification may be provided upon request. We provided a

30-day comment period closing July 23, 2010. The interested parties list included

Ohio EPA, DAPC's general rule making list. A copy of the interested party list may

be provided upon request.

As evidenced in item (A) of the ERAF for this rule, Ohio EPA identified that it

considered all documentation relevant to the need for the rule making and identified

those documents in list form.

Specific Comments

Rule 3745-21-25 "Control of volatile organic compound emissions from

reinforced plastic composites production operations."

Comment 1:

We support the proposed changes to the OAC 3745-21-25 RACT Rule, and

recommend expedient promulgation so that the proposed effective date

(December 2010) can be met, and sources requiring permit modification will be

able to get the process started as soon as possible.

(Perry A. Bennett Jr., Health Safety and Environmental Director, Molded

Fiber Glass Companies)

Response 1:

The Ohio EPA thanks you for the comment and your support for this rule.

Comment 2:

Page 2 of2

I strongly support the proposed changes, which largely clarify the record keeping

required to earn RACT exemption under the 10 ton per year VOC applicability

threshold. I urge Ohio EPA to approve this rule as quickly as possible, giving

companies wishing to take advantage of threshold-based exemptions (from

RACT entirely or from control provisions) as much time as possible to properly

modify their permits. (Dave Lipiro, ECRM Inc.)

Response 2:

The Ohio EPA thanks you for the comment and your support for this rule.
