Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

SYNOPSIS OF 

THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE RULES OF THE 

DEPARTMENTOFNATURALRESOURCES 

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION DIVISION 

RELATING TO AIR QUALITY, CHAPTER 391-3-1 

Rule 391-3-1-.02{2)(y), "Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Metal Furniture 

Coating," is being amended by revising subparagraph (y)2.(ii). 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

To harmonize the compliance demonstration procedures and time periods 

between certain State rules and recently-promulgated Federal rules. This 

change will reduce the daily recordkeeping burden to coincide with the 

monthly compliance averaging period allowed by Federal regulations for 

similar source categories. 

Georgia Rule (y) only allows a 24-hour averaging period to demonstrate 

compliance with emission limits. Federal Rules (40 Code of Federal 

Regulations Parts 60 and 63) for the Metal Furniture source category 

provide for monthly averaging periods to demonstrate compliance with 

emission limits. The option to use a monthly averaging period will reduce 

the recordkeeping and calculation burden to the affected facilities. 

Facilities committed to using the 24-hour averaging period will be allowed 

to continue to use the daily compliance monitoring strategy. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02{2)(ff), "Solvent Metal Cleaning," is being amended by revising subparagraph 

5.(vi) and adding new subparagraphs 5.(vii) and 6. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

To include applicability criteria from the Control Technologies Guidelines 

and Part 63 Maximum Available Control Technology Standard that were 

overlooked during initial rulemaking and to eliminate the overlap of rule 

applicability between Rule (ff) "Solvent Metal Cleaning and Rule (kkk), 

"Aerospace Manufacturing and Rework." 

The Control Technologies Guidelines for Solvent Metal Cleaning include 

a clear exemption for solvent metal cleaners that use aqueous cleaning 

solvents. Additionally, the Maximum Available Control Technology 

Standard for Halogenated Solvent Cleaning (40 Code of Federal 

Regulations 63, Subpart T) allows an exemption for solvent metal 

cleaning conducted in pails and buckets that are no larger than two 

gallons capacity. The amendments to subparagraph (5) will focus the 

rule applicability to volatile-organic-compound-emitting sources of 

significant size. The revision to subparagraph (6) makes it clear that 

Rule (ff) does not apply to aerospace flush cleaning machine activities. 

Solvent cleaning of non-aerospace metal parts and components at 

aerospace and non-aerospace facilities remain covered by Rule (ff). 

A-3 
Chapter 391-3-1 for Air Quality Control 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(ii), "Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Surface Coating of 

Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products," is amended by revising subparagraph 5.(xii). 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

To include applicability criteria from the Control Technologies Guidelines 

that was overlooked during initial rulemaking. 

This change integrates rule applicability criteria from the Control 

Technologies Guidelines that specifies that a facility must "manufacture" a 

product before Rule .02(2)(ii) is applicable. The Division has previously 

relied on Control Technologies Guidelines language, not in Rule (ii), to 

exempt Rule applicability. This revision will make the State Rule 

consistent with the Control Technologies Guidelines and previous 

Division determinations. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(rr), "Gasoline Dispensing Facility - Stage 1," is revised to change the 

compliance date for gasoline dispensing facilities that dispense less than 50,000 gallons-permonth located in Barrow, Bartow, Carroll, Hall, Newton, Spalding, and Walton Counties. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

The purpose of this amendment is to revise the compliance date for 

gasoline dispensing facilities that dispense less than 50,000 gallons- permonth located in Barrow, Bartow, Carroll, Hall, Newton, Spalding, and 

Walton Counties as required by the final "Determination of NonAttainment and Reclassification of the Atlanta, Georgia 8-hour Ozone 

Non-Attainment Area" published in the Federal Register dated March 6, 

2008. 

This initial compliance date for gasoline dispensing facilities that dispense 

less than 50,000 gallons-per-month located in Barrow, Bartow, Carroll, 

Hall, Newton, Spalding, and Walton is changed from May 1, 2009, to 

March 1, 2009. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(tt), "VOC Emissions from Major Sources," is being amended to revise 

the compliance date for sources located in Barrow County. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

The purpose of this amendment is revise the compliance date for Barrow 

County as required by the final "Determination of Non-Attainment and 

Reclassification of the Atlanta, Georgia 8-hour Ozone Non-Attainment 

Area" published in the Federal Register dated March 6, 2008. 

The initial compliance date for sources located in Barrow County is 

changed from May 1, 2009, to March 1, 2009. 

A-4 
Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(yy), "Emissions of Nitrogen Oxides from Major Sources," is being 

amended to revise the compliance date for sources located in Barrow County. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

The purpose of this amendment is revise the compliance date for Barrow 

County as required by the final "Determination of Non-Attainment and 

Reclassification of the Atlanta, Georgia 8-hour Ozone Non-Attainment 

Area" published in the Federal Register dated March 6, 2008. 

The initial compliance date for sources located in Barrow County is 

changed from May 1, 2009, to March 1, 2009. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(kkk), "Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Aerospace 

Manufacturing and Rework Facilities," is being amended by adding subparagraph 1.(iv) and 

revising subparagraphs9., 11., 12.(xii), 14., 18., and 17. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

(1) To include applicability criteria from the Control Technologies 

Guidelines that was overlooked during initial rulemaking. (2) To remove 

Maximum Available Control Technology exemptions that confound 

applicability and compliance determinations. (3) To extend rule 

applicability to better cover aerospace activities. (4) To add critical 

definitions and correct typographical errors. 

The revisions correct inconsistencies in rule language. Georgia Rule 

(kkk) will cover a greater number of aerospace activities negating the 

need for case-by-case Reasonably Available Control Technology 

determinations under Georgia Rule (tt). Critical exemptions and 

definitions omitted from the initial rule are added to provide greater 

flexibility and certainty to the regulated community. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(4) "Ambient Air Standards", subparagraph (c)2., thereof, relating to 

particulate matter, is being amended. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

Georgia's ambient air standard for particulate matter is being revised to 

be consistent with the current Federal standard. 

The 24-hour particulate matter standard is changed from 65 micrograms 

per cubic meter to 35 micrograms per cubic meter in order to be 

consistent with revisions to the Federal National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards that became effective December 18, 2006. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(7) "Prevention of Significant Deterioration," subparagraphs (a)2.(iii) and 

(b)6. thereof, are being amended. 

Purpose: Specific portions of the Federal regulations are being updated in order to 

keep the Georgia rule consistent with the Federal regulation as it pertains 

to certain ethanol production facilities. 

A-5 
Chapter 391-3-1 for Air Quality Control 

Main Features: The Federal definition of major stationary source, which is incorporated 

into Georgia rules within 391-3-1-.02(7)(a)2., is updated by reference. 

The Federal provisions related to review of major stationary sources and 

major modifications, incorporated into Georgia rules at 391-3-1-

.02(7)(b)6., are updated. These Federal provisions were revised on May 

1 , 2007, to specify that ethanol production facilities that produce ethanol 

by natural fermentation included in North American Industry Classification 

System codes 325193 or 312140 are not considered "chemical process 

plants." These facilities would include, among other things, bio-fuels 

production facilities. Such facilities will be subject to less stringent 

permitting requirements under the Prevention of Significant Deterioration 

program. 

Rule 391-3-l-.02(8)(b), "New Source Performance Standards," is being amended by 

updating all current references to incorporate revised Federal standards and to add new Federal 

standards. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

To adopt the Federal Performance Standards into the Georgia Rules by 

reference to ensure consistency between the State and Federal 

programs. 

New standards for Stationary Spark Ignition Internal Combustion Engines; 

New standards for Equipment Leaks of volatile organic compounds in the 

Synthetic Organic Chemicals Manufacturing Industry For Which 

Construction, Reconstruction, or Modification Commenced after 

November 7, 2006; and New standards for Equipment Leaks of volatile 

organic compounds in Petroleum Refineries For Which Construction, 

Reconstruction, or Modification Commenced after November 7, 2006, are 

being adopted. The remaining standards are being updated to 

incorporate any amendments since the last rulemaking. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(9) "Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants", subparagraph (b) 

is being amended. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

The standards for three recently-vacated standards are removed and all 

of the remaining standards are updated to be consistent with Federal 

regulations. 

The standards for "Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and 

Process Heaters" (Subpart DDDDD), "Brick and Structural Clay Products 

Manufacturing" (Subpart JJJJJ), and "Clay Ceramics Manufacturing" 

(Subpart KKKKK) are removed. All other standards are updated by 

reference. 

A-6 
Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(9) "Permit Fees", subparagraph (b) thereof, is being amended. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

The Permit Fee provision is being revised to specify the dollar-per-ton 

rate and reference a fee manual for calendar year 2007 fees. 

The dollar-per-ton rate is increased from $28.50/ton to $34.00/ton. A 

reference to a new fee manual dated March 31, 2008, which provides the 

methods and procedures for calculating, reporting, and paying calendar 

year 2007 fees, is being added. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(10) "Title V Operating Permits," subparagraph (a)4. is being amended. 

Purpose: 

Main Features: 

The Title V definitions are being revised so that the definition of major 

source within the metro Atlanta ozone non-attainment area remains the 

same as prior to revocation of the 1-hour ozone standard. The definitions 

are also updated in order to keep the Georgia rule consistent with the 

Federal regulation as it pertains to certain ethanol production facilities. 

A subparagraph is added to state that the major source threshold for 

volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides is 25 tons-per-year for 

the 13 counties that were formerly part of the metro Atlanta 1-hour ozone 

non-attainment area. This provides consistency with past Title V 

permitting requirements. 

The Federal Title V definition of major source, which is incorporated into 

Georgia rules within 391-3-1-.03(10)(a)4., is updated by reference. The 

Federal definition of major source was revised on May 1, 2007, to specify 

that ethanol production facilities that produce ethanol by natural 

fermentation included in North American Industry Classification System 

codes 325193 or 312140 are not considered "chemical process plants." 

These facilities would include, among other things, bio-fuel production 

facilities. Such facilities will be subject to less stringent permitting 

requirements under the Title V program. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(13) "Emission Reduction Credits," subparagraphs (a), (d), and (h) thereof, 

relating to "Applicability," are being amended. 

Purpose: This revision expands the eligibility of sources in Barrow that can 

participate in the Emission Reduction Credit program from electric 

generating units only to any stationary source with potential volatile 

organic compounds or nitrogen oxide emissions greater than 1 00 tonsper-year. The revision also adds a provision for re-evaluation of 

Certificates of Emission Reduction Credit, changes the administrative 

fees, and eliminates an obsolete provision. 

A-7 
e 

Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

Main Features: Subparagraph (a)(2) is updated to add Barrow County to the list of 

counties. Subparagraph (a)(3) is updated to remove Barrow County as 

this county is now listed in subparagraph (a)(2). Subparagraph (d)1.(i)(l), 

relating to shutdown credits is removed since they are no longer 

applicable. Subparagraph (d)2., regarding re-evaluation of Certificates for 

Emission Reduction Credit is added and is consistent with current 

procedures. Subparagraph (h) is revised to change the administrative 

fees as follows: to create, certify and bank credits from $1000 to $6000, 

to use a banked credit from $100 to $3500, to transfer a Certificate of 

Emission Reduction Credit from $100 to $3000, and to create an 

administrative fee for re-evaluation of a certificate at $2500. If fees have 

already been paid for recent re-evaluations or transfers, then transfer or 

use fees are reduced accordingly. The revised administrative fees are 

based on the typical costs of processing such applications by the 

Division.

Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

STATEMENT OF RATIONALE 

Rules for Air Quality Control 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(y) -Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Metal Furniture 

Coating 

The basis of this rule is to limit volatile organic compound emissions (a precursor to ozone 

formation) from affected facilities that are located within or contribute to ozone levels in ozone 

non-attainment areas. This rule also limits volatile organic compound emissions from major 

volatile-organic-compound-emitting sources (>100 tons-per-year volatile organic compound 

emissions) located outside the ozone non-attainment area. The purpose of this revision is to 

allow a one-month compliance determination period as an alternative to the daily (a.k.a., 24-

hour) compliance determination period. The alternative monthly compliance determination 

period is proposed to make the recordkeeping requirements of the State rule consistent with 

other Federal rules for the same source category. 

Although the reduced recordkeeping burden has not been specifically calculated, there should 

be a positive economic impact to the regulated industry and to the Environmental Protection 

Division. This rule will reduce the frequency of data collection, data recordkeeping, and 

compliance calculations. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the general public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(ff) - Solvent Metal Cleaning 

The basis of this rule is to limit volatile organic compound emissions (a precursor to ozone 

formation) and certain chlorinated hazardous air pollutants from cold cleaners and vapor 

degreasers that are located within or contribute to ozone levels in ozone non-attainment areas. 

These rules also limit volatile organic compound emissions from major volatile-organiccompound-emitting sources {> 100 tons-per-year volatile organic compound emissions) located 

outside the ozone non-attainment area. The purpose of this revision is to exempt cold cleaners 

that use aqueous cleaning solvents from the rule. Cold cleaners that use aqueous cleaning 

solvents were clearly exempted from coverage in the Control Techniques Guideline but not 

included in the final rule. Additionally, Halogenated Solvent Cleaning Maximum Available 

Control Technology (40 Code of Federal Regulations 63, Subpart T), which is subsumed under 

Rule (ff), exempts buckets, pails, and beakers with capacities of two gallons as not being 

considered solvent cleaning machines. Integration of the 2-gallon container exemption into 

Rule (ff) will allow the consistent application of the rule and minimize rule applicability questions 

for these minor emission sources. This revision also includes an exemption for aerospace flush 

cleaners (i.e., cold cleaners) subject to Rule (kkk) from overlapping applicability with Rule (ff). 

Aerospace flush cleaning work practice requirements were developed specifically for the 

aerospace industry, based on common practices and economic impacts. The more generic 

Rule (ff) does not specifically consider the aerospace industry's needs and this revision 

eliminates overlapping regulatory requirements. 

This revision is in no way more restrictive than the Federal requirements and does not incur any 

additional costs to EPD or the regulated industry beyond what is required by Federal 

regulations. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the general public. 

A-9 
Chapter 391-3-1 • R!s for Air Quality Control 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(ii) -Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Surface Coating of 

Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products 

The basis of this rule is to limit volatile organic compound emissions (a precursor to ozone 

formation) from affected facilities that are located within or contribute to ozone levels in ozone 

non-attainment areas. This rule also limits volatile organic compound emissions from the major 

volatile organic compound emitting sources (> 1 00 tons per year volatile organic compound 

emissions) located outside the ozone non-attainment area. The revision amends the definition 

of "Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products Manufacturing" to include applicability criteria from 

the Control Techniques Guidelines that was overlooked during initial rule construction. The 

Environmental Protection Division has repeatedly relied on the Control Technologies Guidelines 

language to make applicability determinations. 

The regulated community will be able to make more certain applicability determinations based 

on revised applicability definitions. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the 

general public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(rr)- Gasoline Dispensing Facility- Stage I 

Gasoline dispensing facilities are required to comply with Clean Air Act Section 182 as it relates 

to the implementation of "Reasonably Available Control Technology." The installation and 

operation of Stage I Vapor Recovery controls is equivalent to reasonably available control 

technology for such facilities. The Stage I equipment installed at the facilities ensures that the 

gasoline vapors remain in the storage tanks and provide the necessary components for the 

transport driver to connect vapor-tight recovery lines from the stationary storage tank to the 

delivery vessel in order to transfer the vapors to the transport vehicle. The amendment revises 

the compliance date for gasoline dispensing facilities that dispense less than 50,000 gallonsper-month from May 1, 2009, to March 1, 2009. This change is required by the final 

"Determination of Non-Attainment and Reclassification of the Atlanta, Georgia 8-hour Ozone 

Non-Attainment Area" published in the Federal Register dated March 6, 2008. 

This revision is in no way more restrictive than the Federal requirements and does not incur any 

additional costs to the Environmental Protection Division nor the regulated industry beyond what 

is required by Federal regulations. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the 

general public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(tt)- Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Major Sources 

The basis of this rule is to adopt the Federal requirements for Reasonably Available Control 

Technology in 8-hour ozone non-attainment areas. The purpose of this revision is to revise the 

compliance date for sources located Barrow County from May 1, 2009, to March 1, 2009, as 

required by the final "Determination of Non-Attainment and Reclassification of the Atlanta, 

Georgia 8-hour Ozone Non-Attainment Area" published in the Federal Register dated March 6, 

2008. 

A-10 
Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

This revision is in no way more restrictive than the Federal requirements and does not incur any 

additional costs to the Environmental Protection Division nor the regulated industry beyond what 

is required by Federal regulations. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the 

general public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(yy) - Emissions of Nitrogen Oxides from Major Sources 

The basis of this rule is to adopt the Federal requirements for Reasonably Available Control 

Technology in 8-hour ozone non-attainment areas. The purpose of this revision is to revise the 

compliance date for sources located Barrow County from May 1, 2009, to March 1, 2009, as 

required by the final "Determination of Non-Attainment and Reclassification of the Atlanta, 

Georgia 8-hour Ozone Non-Attainment Area" published in the Federal Register dated March 6, 

2008. 

This revision is in no way more restrictive than the Federal requirements and does not incur any 

additional costs to the Environmental Protection Division nor the regulated industry beyond what 

is required by Federal regulations. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the 

general public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(kkk) -Aerospace Manufacturing and Rework 

The basis of this rule is to limit volatile organic compound emissions (a precursor to ozone 

formation) from aerospace manufacturing and rework facilities that are located within or 

contribute to ozone levels in ozone non-attainment areas. These rules also limit volatile organic 

compound emissions from major volatile organic compound emitting sources (> 100 tons-peryear of volatile organic compound emissions) located outside the ozone non-attainment area. 

The purpose of this revision is to: 

(1) Correct errors in rule applicability that were included in the initial rule that made the 

emission limits and work practices unenforceable. 

(2) Extend rule coverage to include depainting activities. 

(3) Enhance recordkeeping requirements to require records to demonstrate compliance with 

the emission limits and work practices. 

(4) Add critical definitions from the Control Technologies Guidelines necessary for 

understanding the rule. 

(5) Correct typographical errors. 

This revision is in no way more restrictive than the federal requirements and does not incur any 

additional costs to Environmental Protection Division or the regulated industry beyond what is 

required by federal regulations. No costs will be imposed on local governments or the general 

public.

Rule 391-3-1-.02(4)- Ambient Air Standards 

The basis of this subparagraph is to specify the ambient air quality standards for the state of 

Georgia. The purpose of this revision is to revise the standard for fine particulate matter to be 

consistent with a revised Federal standard that became effective December 18, 2006. 

This revision is administrative in nature and is in no way any more restrictive than the FederaJ 

requirements and does not incur any additional costs to the regulated industry or public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(7) - Prevention of Significant Deterioration of Air Quality 

The basis of this paragraph is to specify permitting requirements for new major sources and 

major modifications at existing major sources. The purpose of this revision is to adopt recent 

changes to the Federal regulations as they pertain to certain ethanol production facilities. 

This revision is administrative in nature and is in no way any more restrictive than the Federal 

requirements. This revision may reduce potential costs to the regulated industry. There are no 

additional costs to the public or local governments. 

Rule 391-3-1.02(8) New Source Performance Standards 

The basis of this rule is to adopt the Federal New Source Performance Standards by Reference. 

The purpose for this revision is to adopt new standards and to update the entire rule in order to 

include all changes made to the Federal New Source Performance Standards rules into the 

Georgia rules. 

This revision is administrative in nature, is in no way any more restrictive than the Federal 

requirements, and does not incur any additional costs to the regulated industry or public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(9) - Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

The basis of this paragraph is to incorporate the Federal standards for hazardous air pollutants. 

The purpose of this revision is to 1) remove three standards that have been vacated by Federal 

courts and 2) update all other standards to incorporate any recent changes. 

This revision is administrative in nature and is in no way any more restrictive than the Federal 

requirements. There are no additional costs to the public or local governments. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(9)- Permit Fees 

The basis of this paragraph is to specify the fee rate and procedures for determining, reporting, 

and submitting permit fees. The purpose of this revision is to specify the fee rate and reference

1, 2008, and will fund state fiscal year 2009 fee-related activities). 

A-12 
Chapter 391-3-1 Rules for Air Quality Control 

This rev1s1on will increase fees paid by affected entities including regulated industrial, 

commercial, and utility activities that may include some local governments. The changes were 

developed through a workgroup that included these regulated entities. There will be no 

increase costs to the public. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(10)- Title V Operating Permits 

The basis of this paragraph is to specify major source operating permit requirements. The 

purposes of this revision are to 1) retain the major source threshold for sources of volatile 

organic compounds and nitrogen oxides at levels that were in effect prior to revocation of the 1-

hour ozone standard in 2005 and 2) adopt recent changes to the Federal definitions as they 

pertain to certain ethanol production facilities. 

This revision is administrative in nature and is in no way more restrictive than the Federal 

requirements or recent permitting requirements. This revision should result in no additional 

costs for most regulated industries and may reduce potential costs to others. There are no 

additional costs to the public or local governments. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(13)- Emission Reduction Credits 

The basis of this paragraph is to specify the program for creating, banking, transferring, and 

using nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compound Emission Reduction Credits in the metro 

Atlanta ozone non-attainment area and designated contributing area. The purposes of this 

revision are to make the applicability consistent with the current metro Atlanta ozone nonattainment area, add a provision for re-evaluation of Certificates of Emission Reduction Credits, 

change the administrative fees, and eliminate an obsolete provision. 

Other than the administrative fee change, this revision is administrative in nature. The revision 

to the administrative fees will result in additional costs to the industry. These costs are reflective 

of the actual costs of implementing the program by the Environmental Protection Division. The 

other revisions will result in no additional costs to industry, the public, or local governments.

Ombudsman, Small Business Environmental Assistance Program 

SUBJECT: Economic Impact of Proposed Amendments to the Rules for Air Quality Control 

Pertaining to Rule 391-3-1 

The Administrative Procedures Act requires that in the formation and adoption of any rules 

which will have an economic impact on businesses in the State, attempts be made to reduce the 

economic impact of the Rule on small businesses which are independently owned and operated 

and are not dominant in the field and employ 1 00 employees or less. The statute specifically 

requires that four actions be considered in reducing the economic impact. These four actions 

are: 

1. Establishing different requirements or reporting requirements or timetables for small 

businesses; 

2. Clarifying, consolidating or simplifying the compliance and reporting requirements under 

the Rule for small businesses; 

3. Establishing performance rather than design standards for small businesses; or 

4. Exempting small businesses from any or all requirements of the Rules. 

The Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) is proposing amendments to the Rules 

for Air Quality Control, Chapter 391-3-1 (Air Quality Rules). The proposed Air Quality Rules 

include amendments to the following: 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(y), ''VOC Emissions from Metal Furniture Coating" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(ff)5.(vi), 5.(vii), 6., "Solvent Metal Cleaning" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(ii)5.(xii), ''VOC Emissions from Surface Coating of Miscellaneous Metal 

Parts and Products" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(rr)16.(vi), "Gasoline Dispensing Facility - Stage I"

Rule 391-3-1-.02(7)(a)2.(iii), "Prevention of Significant Deterioration of Air Quality" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(7)(b)6., "Review of Major Stationary Sources and Major Modifications" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(8)(b), "New Source Performance Standards" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(9)(b), "Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(9)(b), "Permit Fees" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(1 O)(a)4., "Title V Operating Permits" 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(13)(a),(d),(h), "Emission Reduction Credits" 

In consideration of the four actions required in the State statute for the proposed changes to the 

Air Quality Rules, we offer the following comments on the proposed rule amendments: 

1. Different compliance or reporting requirements for small businesses: 

This issue is not germane for the proposed rule changes. 

2. Consolidate and/or simplify compliance or reporting requirements for small businesses: 

Rule 391-3-1-.02(2)(y), subparagraph 2.(ii), "VOC Emissions from Metal Furniture 

Coating" proposed amendments will eliminate the need to keep separate record keeping 

to satisfy Federal and State requirements. 

3. Performance rather than design standards for small businesses: 

This issue is not germane for the proposed rule changes. 

4. Exemptions for small businesses: 

Sources subject to "permit-by-rule" continue to be exempt from permit fees. Most small 

businesses in Georgia are classified as "synthetic minor'' or "permit-by-rule" sources, 

therefore, exemptions for small businesses subject to the "permit-by-rule" were not 

affected by the proposed increase in permit fees addressed in Rule 391-3-1-.02(9)(b), 

"Permit Fees." 

A-16 
Small Business Impact Memo 

May 29,2008

In addition, the Administrative Procedures Act requires that " ... in the formulation and 

adoption of any rule, an agency shall choose an alternative that does not impose 

excessive regulatory costs on any regulated person or entity which costs could be reduced 

by a less expensive alternative that fully accomplishes the stated objectives of the statutes 

which are the basis of the proposed rule." The proposed rules resolve conflicts with other 

State requirements, resolve conflicts with Federal requirements, correct references to 

reflect the more stringent potential to emit standard used by Georgia, reduce the record 

keeping requirements for small businesses, incorporate standards being used, provide 

clarification of affected industry sources (no change in small businesses affected), or are 

not applicable to small businesses in Georgia. Although, an increase in air permit fees is 

being proposed for "major sources", the permit fee for "synthetic minor" sources did not 

increase and small business sources subject to "permit-by-rule" continue to be exempt 

from permit fees. We have carefully evaluated the impact of the proposed rule 

amendments upon the regulated community, and, after careful consideration of same, 

have determined that the proposed rule amendments do not impose excessive regulatory 

costs on any regulated person or entity, which costs could be reduced by a less expensive 

alternative that fully accomplishes the stated objectives of the Georgia Air Quality Act.

Rule 391-3-1-.03(10) "Title V Operating Permits," subparagraph (a)4., thereof, relating to 

"Definitions," is being updated and revised as follows: 

4. Definitions: For the purpose of this Section (10), 40 CFR Part 70.2 as amended is 

hereby incorporated and adopted by reference, with the following exception(s): 

(i) "Potential to emit" shall have the meaning ascribed in subsection (ddd) of 

rule 391-3-1-.01. 

(ii) In addition to the major sources defined in 40 CFR 70.2, the following shall 

also be considered a major source: for the counties of Cherokee, Clayton, 

Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, 

Paulding, and Rockdale, sources with the potential to emit 25 tpy or more of 

volatile organic compounds or oxides of nitrogen. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(13) "Emission Reduction Credits," subparagraphs (a), (d), and (h) thereof, are 

being revised as follows: 

A-52 
Chapter 391-3-1 for Air Quality Control 

(a) Applicability. 

This section provides for the creation, banking, transfer, and use of nitrogen oxides and 

VOC Emission Reduction Credits in Federally designated ozone non-attainment areas in 

Georgia and any areas designated by the Director as contributing to the ambient air level of 

ozone in Federally designated ozone non-attainment areas in Georgia. The following 

sources are eligible to create and bank nitrogen oxides and VOC Emission Reduction 

Credits: 

1. Any stationary source located within the counties of Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, 

Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Paulding, and 

Rockdale and which has the potential to emit nitrogen oxides or VOC in amounts 

greater than 25 tons-per-year. 

2. Any stationary source located within the counties of Barrow, Bartow, Carroll, Hall, 

Newton, Spalding, and Walton and which has the potential to emit nitrogen oxides 

or VOCs in amounts greater than 100 tons-per-year. 

3. Electrical Generating Units located at any stationary source within the counties of 

Banks, BarrovJ, Butts, Chattooga, Clarke, Dawson, Floyd, Gordon, Haralson, Heard,

(I) Emission Reduction Credits created through the shutdown of 

individual process equipment will not be discounted upon banking. 

(ii) Discounting Based on Time Banked. 

Emission Reduction Credits banked under this section will not expire at any 

time. However, Emission Reduction Credits will be discounted at a rate of 

1 0 percent of the original Emission Reduction Credit value per year 

beginning on the 11th anniversary of the date on which the reduction in 

emissions initially occurred, up to a maximum total discount of 50 percent of 

the original Emission Reduction Credit value on the 15th anniversary of the 

date on which the reduction in emissions initially occurred. Annual 

discounting under this subsection ( -ii-) shall not occur if the affected 

Emission Reduction Credits have already been discounted by 50% or more 

under the following subsection (iii) due to the promulgation of more stringent 

regulations affecting the source category that created the Emission 

Reduction Credits.

from a particular source category or categories, any banked nitrogen oxides 

or VOC Emission Reduction Credits created by that source category or 

categories shall be reduced to reflect the new more stringent allowable 

emission limit or required reduction. 

(iv) Discounting or Revocation for Cause. 

The Director may revoke, suspend, or reduce the value of Emission 

Reduction Credits for cause, including evidence of noncompliance with 

permit conditions imposed to make the emission reductions permanent and 

enforceable; failure to achieve in practice the emission reductions on which 

the Emission Reduction Credits are based; or misrepresentations made in 

the Emission Reduction Credit application or any other applications on which 

the Emission Reduction Credits are based, supporting data entered therein 

or attached thereto, or any subsequent submittal or supporting data. 

2. The owner of a Certificate of Emissions Reduction Credit may submit an application 

to re-evaluate a Certificate of Emission Reduction Credit to determine whether the 

amount of credits specified in the Certificate of Emission Reduction Credit has been 

discounted or revoked in accordance with subparagraph 1 .. above. Such 

application shall be submitted on forms and contain information specified by the 

Division.

Rule 391-3-1-.03(10) "Title V Operating Permits," subparagraph (a)4., thereof, relating to 

"Definitions," is being updated and revised as follows: 

4. Definitions: For the purpose of this Section (10), 40 CFR Part 70.2 as amended 

is hereby incorporated and adopted by reference, with the following exception( s ): 

(·,·) "P-t-n•=-• to -m=•" _ ...... _11 ...... _. ·e ....... _ m--n'~g -s-~' ...... ~d :~ suh~ecvl"'"' ('"''"'d\ ,.._f v Ct llctl Cl ll .:>llctll llctv utc 1 Gctl 111 a viii.IG 111 u.;, < v11 uu 1 v1 

rule 391-3-1-.01. 

(ii) In addition to the major sources defined in 40 CFR 70.2, the following 

shall also be considered a major source: for the counties of Cherokee, 

Clayton, Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, 

Gwinnett Henry, Paulding, and Rockdale, sources with the potential to 

emit 25 tpy or more of volatile organic compounds or oxides of nitrogen. 

Rule 391-3-1-.03(13) "Emission Reduction Credits," subparagraphs (a), (d), and (h) thereof, 

are being revised as follows: 

(a) Applicability. 

This section provides for the creation, banking, transfer, and use of nitrogen oxides and 

VOC Emission Reduction Credits in Federally designated ozone non-attainment areas in 
Georgia and any areas designated by the Director as contributing to the ambient air level 

of ozone in Federally designated ozone non-attainment areas in Georgia. The following 

sources are eligible to create and bank nitrogen oxides and VOC Emission Reduction 

Credits: 

1. Any stationary source located within the counties of Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, 

Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Paulding, 

and Rockdale and which has the potential to emit nitrogen oxides or VOC in 

amounts greater than 25 tons-per-year. 

2. Any stationary source located within the counties of Barrow, Bartow, Carroll, Hall, 

Newton, Spalding, and Walton and which has the potential to emit nitrogen 

oxides or VOCs in amounts greater than 100 tons-per-year. 

3. Electrical Generating Units located at any stationary source within the counties of 

Banks, Barrow, Butts, Chattooga, Clarke, Dawson, Floyd, Gordon, Haralson, 

Heard, Jackson, Jasper, Jones, Lamar, Lumpkin, Madison, Meriwether, Monroe, 

Morgan, Oconee, Pickens, Pike, Polk, Putnam, Troup, and Upson and which has 

the potential to emit nitrogen oxides in amounts greater than 100 tons-per-year. 

(d) Discounting and Revocation of Emission Reduction Credits. 

1. Except as provided below, the Director shall not discount or otherwise reduce the 

value of Emission Reduction Credits banked under this section. 

(i) [reserved] Shutdown credits. 

(I) Emission Reduction Credits created through the shutdovm Bf 

individual process equipment ·.viii not be discounted upon banking. 

(ii) Discounting Based on Time Banked. 

Emission Reduction Credits banked under this section will not expire at 

any time. However, Emission Reduction Credits will be discounted at a 

rate of 10 percent of the original Emission Reduction Credit value per 

year beginning on the 11th anniversary of the date on which the reduction 

in emissions initially occurred, up to a maximum total discount of 50 

percent of the original Emission Reduction Credit value on the 15th 

anniversary of the date on which the reduction in emissions initially 

occurred. Annual discounting under this subsection ( -ii-) shall not occur if 

the affected Emission Reduction Credits have already been discounted 

by 50% or more under the following subsection (iii) due to the 

promulgation of more stringent regulations affecting the source category 

that created the Emission Reduction Credits. 

(iii) Discounting for More Stringent Regulations. 

If any State or Federal statute, rule, or regulation decreases an allowable 

emission rate or otherwise requires a reduction in nitrogen oxides or VOC 
from a particular source category or categories, any banked nitrogen 

oxides or VOC Emission Reduction Credits created by that source 

category or categories shall be reduced to reflect the new more stringent 

allowable emission limit or required reduction. 

(iv) Discounting or Revocation for Cause. 

The Director may revoke, suspend, or reduce the value of Emission 

Reduction Credits for cause, including evidence of noncompliance with 

permit conditions imposed to make the emission reductions permanent 

and enforceable; failure to achieve in practice the emission reductions on 

which the Emission Reduction Credits are based; or misrepresentations 

made in the Emission Reduction Credit application or any other 

applications on which the Emission Reduction Creditsare based, 

supporting data entered therein or attached thereto, or any subsequent 

submittal or supporting data. 

2. The owner of a Certificate of Emissions Reduction Credit may submit an 

application to re-evaluate a Certificate of Emission Reduction Credit to determine 

whether the amount of credits specified in the Certificate of Emission Reduction 

Credit has been discounted or revoked in accordance with subparagraph 1., 

above. Such application shall be submitted on forms and contain information 

specified by the Division. 

(h) Administrative Fees. 

1. Any Source or person seeking to create, certify, bank, use .. 9f transfer, or reevaluate Emission Reduction Credits shall pay fees to the Division in accordance 

with the following schedule: 

(i) $+GOO $6000 per application to create, certify and bank emission credits 

in accordance with subsection subparagraph (e) of this section 

paragraph. 

(ii) $4-GG $3500 per application to use a banked emission credit in 

accordance with subparagraph (f)4. of this section paragraph. If the 

Certificate of Emission Reduction Credit has either been transferred in 

accordance with subparagraph (g) of this paragraph or re-evaluated in 

accordance with subparagraph (d)2. of this paragraph, or both, within 12 

months prior to submission of an application to use a banked emission 

credit, the administrative fee to use a banked emission credit shall be 

reduced by the amount administrative fee(s) paid to the Division for 

transfer and re-evaluation. The 12-month period shall be based on the 

date of issuance of the new Certificate of Emission Reduction Credit to 

the new owner (for a transfer) or the date of written notification of the 

owner of the results of the re-evaluation by the Division (for a reevaluation). 
(iii) $+00 $3000 per application to transfer a Certificate of Emission 

Reductions Credit as per subsection subparagraph (g) of this section 

paragraph. If a re-evaluation of the Certificate of Emission Reduction 

Credit has been completed by the Division in accordance with 

subparagraph ( d)2. of this paragraph within 12 months prior to 

submission of an application to transfer the Certificate of Emission 

Reduction Credit, the administrative fee to transfer the Certificate of 

Emission Reduction Credit shall be reduced by the amount administrative 

fee paid for re-evaluation. The 12-month period shall be based on the 

date of written notification of the owner of the results of the re-evaluation 

by the Division. 

(iv) $2500 per application to re-evaluate an Certificate of Emission Reduction 

Credit as per subparagraph (d)2. of this paragraph.
