“Stripping” means the use of solvent to remove materials such as cured adhesives, cured inks, cured sealants,

cured or dried paints, cured or dried paint residues, or temporary protective coatings. “Surface Preparation” means the removal of contaminants such as dust, soil, oil, grease, moisture, etc., prior

to application of an adhesive, coating, ink, polyester resin material, or sealant. “Temporary Total Enclosure” means any total enclosure that is co nstructed for the sole purpose of

measuring the emissions from an affected source that are not delivered to an emission control device. A temporary total enclosure must be constructed and ven tilated (through s tacks suitable for testing) so that it has minimal impact on the performance of the permanent emission capture system. A temporary total enclosure will be assumed to achieve total captureof fugitive emissions if it meets the requirements found in 40 CFR Section 63.750(g)(4) and if all natural draft openings are at least four duct or hood equivalent diameters away from each exhaust duct or hood. Alternatively, the owner or operator may apply to the Control Officer for approval of a temporary enclosure on a case-by-case basis.Santa Barbara County APCD Rule 102 102 - 17 June 21, 2012 “Thermal Incinerator” means any device that burns reactive organi c compounds or toxic air contaminants in

air by direct application of heat. Thermal incinerators are usually equipped with burners, refractory lined chambers, heat recovery equipment, and process controllers. “Total Enclosure” means any permanent structure that is constructed around a gaseous emission source so

that all gaseous pollutants emitted from the source are co llected and ducted through a control device, such that 100 percent capture efficiency is achieved. There are no fugitive emissions from a total enclosure. The only openings in a total enclosure are forced makeup ai r and exhaust ducts and any natural draft openings such as those that allow raw materials to enter and exit the enclosure for processing. All access doors or windows are closed during routine operation of the enclosed source. Brief, occasional openings of such doors or windows to accommodate process equipment adjustments are acceptable, but if such openings are routine or if an access door remains open during the entire operation, the access door must be considered a natural draft opening. The average inward face velocity across the natural draft openings of the enclosure shall be calculated including the area of such access doors. The drying oven itself may be part of the total enclosure. An enclosure that meets the requirements found in 40 CFR Section 63.750(g)(4 ) is a permanent total enclosure. “Total Suspended Particulates” means "particulate matter", as defined in this rule. “Toxic Air Contaminant” means “Toxic air contaminant” as defined in Health and Safety Code Section
