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

Rule 102, Definitions: The District added and modified several solvent-related definitions that are used in 

various parts of the rulebook. The definition of reactive organic compound was updated to include most of the 

exempt compounds listed in 40 CFR 50.100(s). Rule 202, Exemptions to Rule 201: The amended rule now 

includes the Rule 210 title (“Fees”). Revisions to Sections I and U are necessary for consistency with the 

amended Rule 321 provisions and for rule clarity. The Rule 202.D.10.l provision requires sources to obtain an 

Authority to Construct and a Permit to Operate when using certain newly-designated exempt compounds in 

excess of 1 gallon per year per stationary source. Rule 321, Solvent Cleaning Machines and Solvent 

Cleaning: Changes to Rule 321 require more-rigorous emission control techniques for solvent cleaning 

machines and establishes solvent ROC content limits for solvent cleaning and cold solvent cleaners. Also, vapor 

cleaning machines using a solvent with an ROC content greater than 50 grams per liter shall require additional 

emission reducing devices. The solvent cleaning exemption was deleted and the rule requires specific cleaning 

devices/methods to be used when performing solvent cleaning. The amended rule allows the airless or air-tight 

solvent cleaning machines in lieu of other control techniques. Also, the revised rule changed the recordkeeping 

to be monthly (revised from being quarterly). 

Pollutant(s) Regulated by the Rule (Check): ROG (NOx) SO2
