incorporated by reference. 

R307-357-14. VOC Content Determinations Using Product 

Formulation and Records. 

(1) Testing to determine compliance with the 

requirements ofR307-357 may also be demonstrated through 

calculation of the VOC content from records of the amounts of 

constituents used to make the product pursuant to the following 

criteria: 

(a) Compliance determinations based on these 

records may not be used unless the manufacturer of a consumer 

product keeps accurate records for each day of production of the 

amount and chemical composition of the individual product 

constituents, and these records must be kept for at least three 

years. 

(b) For the purposes of R307-357-13, the VOC 

content shall be calculated according to the following equation: 

VOC Content= ((B-C)/A) x 100 

where, A = total net weight of unit (excluding 

container and packaging) 

B =total weight of all VOCs, as defined in Table 1, 

per unit 

C =total weight ofVOCs exempted under R307-357-

6, per unit 

( c) If product records appear to demonstrate 

compliance with the voe limits, but these records are 

contradicted by product testing performed using CARB Method 

310, the results of CARB Method 310 shall take precedence 

over the product records and may be used to establish a 

violation of the requirements of this regulation. 

R307-357-15. Determination of Liquid or Solid.
