A. BACKGROUND:

On March 15

, 2012

, the District Department of the En vironment ( DDOE ) submitted a revision to

the District of Columbia (District) State Implementation Plan (SIP )

. The SIP revision pertains to Chapters 1 and 7 of Title 20 (Environment) of the District of Columbia Municipal Regulations (DCMR) . The revision a mends portions of Chapters 1 and 7 in order to add or remove sections from the SIP to reduce further volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions in the District. On January 26, 2010 and March 24, 2011, DDOE submitted a negative declaration to EPA for the

fo llowing VOC source categories: (1) auto and light

- duty truck assembly coatings; (2) fiberglass boat manufacturing materials; (3) paper, film and foil coatings; and (4) flatwood paneling. The negative declaration was submitted to EPA to fulfill the requir ement that, in the absence of sources in any source category, the District must revise its SIP or submit a negative declaration pursuant to section 182(b)(2)(A) of the Clean Air Act ( CAA )

.

The Washington Metropolitan Area, which includes the District, is designated nonattainment for the 2008 eight

- hour national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone. As a result, the District is required to adopt measures to reduce ozone levels, includin g precursor emissions of

VOCs. The standards and requiremen ts contained in the District’s regulations to reduce VOCs

and precursor s of ozone incorporate the level of control recommended in the Ozone Transport Commission (OTC) model rules. The OTC model rule s are based on the existing rules developed by the 1998 Ca lifornia Air Resources Board (CARB) reasonably available control technology (RACT) determination. Implementing th e model rule s will result in VOC emission reductions in

VOC at least as stringent as any applicable control technique guidelines (CTG) and wil l suppor t
the attainment demonstrations and reductions in ground

- level ozone in other areas of the Ozone Transport Region ( OTR )

. The District has adopted RACT regulations consistent with the level of control recommended by the requirements of the followin g OTC m ode l rules into regulations:2

(1) consumer products, (2) adhesives and sealants, (3) architectural and industrial maintenance, (4) portable fuel containers and s pouts, and (5) solvent cleaning.

In addition to adopting RACT regulations consistent wi th the level of control recommended by the OTC model rules, the District also adopted the requirements of several CTG s published by

the U.S. Environm ental Protection Agency (EPA). Section 172(c)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) provides that SIP s for nonatta inment areas must include reasonably available control measures (RACM), including RACT , for sources of emissions. Section 182(b)(2)(A) provides that for certain nonattainment areas, states must revise their SIP to include RACT for sources of

VOC emissions covered by a CTG document issued after November 15, 1990 and prior to the
Area’s date of attainment. EPA defines RACT as “the lowest emission limitation that a particular source is capable of meeting by the application of control technology that is reaso nably available considering technological and economic feasibility” (44 FR 53761, Sept. 17, 1979). In subsequent Federal Register notices, EPA has addressed how states can meet the RACT requirements of the CAA.

CTGs are documents issued by EPA intended to provide state and local air pollution control authorities information that should assist them in determining RACT for VOC from various

sources. The District has adopted RACT regulations consistent with the level of control recommended by the requiremen ts of the following CTG s into regulations: (1) flexible packaging and printing; (2) large appliance coatings; (3) metal furniture coatings, and miscellaneous metal products and plastic parts coatings; (4) lithographic and letterpress printing; (5) miscell aneous industrial adhesives; and (6) industrial cleaning solvents.

B . STATE SUBMITTAL:

I

. Amendments to Title 20 DCMR (Environment), Subtitle A (Air Quality), Chapter 1

– General Provisions

The SIP revision amended subsection 100.4 in order to allo w for the English system of measurement to become the official system of measurement since it is the most commonly used

measurement in VOC controls.

The SIP revision amended section 199 in order to replace one definition and remove specific

definitions fr om Chapter 1 and move them to section 799 which was a more appropriate location

for them

. The revision removes the following definitions and terms in section 199: “Control technique guideline,” “Cylinder

- wipe,” “Gravure,” “Heatset,” “Inking cylinder,” “I ntaglio,” “Letterpress,” “Letterset,” “Offset printing process,” “Paper

- wipe,” “Photochemically reactive solvent,” “Plate,” “Printing,” “Printing operation,” “Printing unit,” “Water

- based solvent,” and “Wipe cleaning.” The revision also repealed “Volatile organic compounds” and replaced it with

a new definition for VOCs. The new definition for VOCs is any compound of carbon, other than those organic compounds that are defined in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR ) part 51.3

II

. Amendments to Title 20 DC MR (Environment), Subtitle A (Air Quality), Chapter 7

– Volatile Organic Compounds

A. Section 700

The revision amended section 700 in order to repeal and change the title from “ Organic

Solvents ” to “Miscellaneous Volatile Organic Compounds” to more accur ately establish and expand the subject of the regulation

. Section 700.1 was amended to extend the catch

- all to all subsequent sections in Chapter 7 not previously included in section 700. 1. Section 700.2 was

amended in order to increase the overall contr ol efficiency requirement from 85 percent to 90
percent. The revision also changed the term “photochemically reactive solvents” in section 700.2 to “volatile organic compounds” in order to reflect the true focus of Chapter 7 and the term “overall capture and control efficiency” was added to the end of section 700.2 to clarify the intent of the emissions reduction option. Section 700.3 was amended in order to move “nonphotochemically r eactive solvents” to section 708, because nonphotochemically reactive

so lvents are not technically VOCs. However, the section remains in 20 DCMR Chapter 7 to avoid backsliding

.

B. Section 707

The revision amended section 707 in order to repeal “ Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning ” because perchloroethylene (“perc”), a chemical s olvent used in dry cleaning, is no longer defined as a

VOC

.

C. Section 708 The revision repeals section 708

, “Solvent Cleaning” because all of the standards from this particular section are addressed with more detail in OTC’s model rule on solvent clean ing in

sections 763 through 769.

D. Section 710

The revision amend ed section 710, “Intaglio, Flexographic, and Rotogravure Printing” in order to specify applicability to intaglio printing units and intaglio printing operations. Section 710 also

establi shed applicability for any individual flexographic or rotogravure package printing press, after January 1, 2012, with the theoretical potential to emit from the dryer before controls of at least 25 tons per year (tpy) of VOC from inks, coatings and adhesiv es combined. Section 710 established that the use of inks, wiping solutions, and fountain solutions in connection with printing units shall comply with the limits on the percentage content of VOCs of the inks, wiping

solutions and fountain solutions for t he respe c tive types of printing units. The District also amended section 710 in order to incorporate the control recommendations and emission limits from EPA’s Flexible Package Printing CTG since flexible package printing uses both flexographic and rotogr avure printing presses, and at least one of the District’s major sources does operate a rotogravure press. The District incorporated the limits listed in Appendix 7

- 1, and then Appendix 7

- 1 was repealed. The CTG controls are for inks, adhesives, and seal ants used in presses with a potential to emit (PTE) 25 tons or more of VOCs per year.4

EPA’s Flexible Package Printing CTG The CTG for flexible package printing is intended to provide state and local air pollution control

authorities information that sh ould assist them in determining RACT for VOCs from flexible package printing facilities. Based on available information and data, EPA provides recommendations for RACT for VOCs from flexible package printing facilities. In December 1978, EPA published a CTG for graphic arts (rotogravure printing and flexographic printing) that included flexible package printing. The 1978 CTG discusses the flexible package printing industry, the nature of VOC emissions from that industry, available control technologies fo r addressing such emissions, the costs of available control options, and other items. In September 2006, after conducting a review of currently existing state and local VOC emission reduction approaches for flexible package printing, reviewing the 1978 CT G and the 1996 NESHAP for the printing and publishing industry (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart KK), and taking into account the information that has become available since then, EPA developed a new CTG for flexible package printing entitled Control Techniques Gui delines for Flexible Package Printing (Publication No. EPA 453/R

- 06

- 003). Recommendations for controlling VOC emissions from inks, coatings, adhesives and cleaning materials used in flexible package printing operations are

outlined in the CTG and are as f ollows:

• 65 percent overall control for a press that was first installed prior to March 14, 1995 and that is controlled by an add

- on air pollution control device (APCD) whose first installation date was prior to the effective date of the State RACT rule

. • 70 percent overall control for a press that was first installed prior to March 14, 1995 and that is controlled by an add

- on APCD whose first installation date was on or after the

effective date of the State RACT rule. • 75 percent overall control for a press that was first installed on or after March 14, 1995 and that is controlled by an add

- on APCD whose first installation date was prior to the

effective date of the State RACT rule. • 80 percent overall control for a press that was first installed o n or after March 14, 1995 and that is controlled by an add

- on APCD whose first installation date was on or after

the effective date of the State RACT rule.

As an alternative to emission reduction percentages specified above, EPA also recommends providing the following two equivalent VOC content limits which can be met by use of low VOC content materials or combinations of materials and controls as follows: (1) 0.8 kg VOC/kg solids applied, or (2) 0.16 kg VOC/kg materials applied. These VOC content limits are consistent with an 80 percent overall emissions reduction level and reflect similar control levels as the capture and control option. The VOC content limits can be met by averaging the VOC content of materials used on a single press, i.e., within a l ine.

The SIP revision also amended section 710 in order to: (1) establish test methodologies, and (2)

re

- codify section due to changes in provisions.

E. Section 7145

The District amended section 714 in order to repeal and change the title from “Controls and Prohibitions on Gasoline Volatility” to “Control Techniques Guidelines (CTGs).” The District

made this amendment in order to address three of EPA’s CTGs for the follow ing source categories: miscellaneous metal product and plastic parts coatings, lar ge appliance coatings, and metal furniture coatings. CTG applicability is based on actual emission thresholds from the aggregation of units within a CTG category. The catch

- all CTG rule requires a presumptive 90 percent overall control efficiency for any person who owns, operates, or leases any combination of articles, machines, units, equipment, or other contrivances at a facility whose actual VOC emissions before control devices from all units within the miscellaneous metal and plastic parts coatings, l arge appliance coatings, and metal furniture coatings CTG categories are more than 15 pounds (lbs) in any one day, or more than 3 lbs in any hour

.

EPA’s Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings CTG In June 1978, EPA issued a CTG document for contr olling VOC emissions from the surface coating of miscellaneous metal parts and products. EPA developed a new CTG combining the requirements for miscellaneous metal and plastic parts coatings into a single CTG , entitled “Control Technique Guidelines for Mi scellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings” (EPA

453/R

- 08

- 003, September 2008). The CTG applies to manufacturers of miscellaneous metal and plastic parts that surface

- coat the parts they produce. The September 2008 CTG for

Miscellaneous Metal and Plasti c Parts Coatings provides recommendations for reducing VOC emissions from the use of coatings in a miscellaneous metal products and miscellaneous plastic parts surface coating unit at a facility where the total actual VOC emissions from all

miscellaneous m etal product and plastic parts surface coating operations, including related cleaning activities, at that facility, are equal to or exceed 6.8 kilograms a day (kg/day), 15 pounds a day (lb/day), or an equivalent level of 2.7 tons per 12

- month rolling perio d, before

consideration of controls. To control VOC emissions from miscellaneous metal and plastic parts surface coatings, the CTG recommends an option of an overall VOC control efficiency of 90 percent for facilities that choose to add

- on controls instea d of low

- VOC content coatings and specified application methods.

EPA’s Large Appliance Coatings CTG In December 1977, EPA published a final CTG for large appliance coatings, entitled “Control of Volatile Organic Emissions from Existing Stationary Sourc es, Volume V, Surface Coating of Large Appliances,” EPA

- 450/2

- 77

- 034 (December 1977). EPA developed a new CTG for surface coating of large appliances, entitled “Control Techniques Guidelines for Large Appliance Coatings,” EPA 453/R

- 07

- 004 (September 2007)

. Recommendations for controlling VOC emissions from large appliance coatings are outlined in the CTG. One option, s hould product performance requirements or other needs dictate the use of higher VOC materials than those that

would meet the recommended emission limits, a facility could choose to use add

- on control equipment to meet an overall efficiency of 90 percent.

EPA’s Metal Furniture Coatings CTG In December 1977, EPA issued a CTG document for controlling VOC emissions from the6

surface coatin g of metal furniture. EPA developed a new CTG for the Surface Coating of Metal Furniture entitled, “Control Technique Guidelines for Metal Furniture Coatings” (EPA 453/R

07

- 005). Coatings used in metal furniture surface coating operations include paints, sealants, caulks, ink, adhesives, and maskants. It is recommended that the controls apply to each metal furniture surface coating unit at a facility where the total actual VOC emissions from all metal furniture coating operations, including related clean ing activities, at that facility, are equal to or exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lb/day), or an equivalent level such as 3 tons per 12

- month rolling period, before consideration of controls. To control VOC emissions from metal furniture coatings, the

CTG recommend s an option of an overall control efficiency of 90 percent for add

- on controls.

Section 714 was also amended to define the term “source” for each CTG category as follows: (1) Miscellaneous Metal Product and Plastic Parts Surface Coatings, where a sourc e performs surface coating of miscellaneous metal and plastic parts at a manufacturing facility or on a contract basis; (2) Large Appliance Coatings, where a source uses paints, topcoats, basecoats, sealants, caulks, inks, primers, enamels, adhesives, mask ants, and other such materials in the manufacture of large appliance parts or products at a large appliance coatings facility; and (3) Metal Furniture Coatings, where a source applies coatings to metal furniture surface coating units

at a metal furniture m anufacturing facility.

The SIP revision also amended section 714 in order to: (1) establish a “once in, always in” provision, (2) establish work practice and record

- keeping requirements, (3) establish source

specific RACT analysis applicability requireme nts, and (4) establish procedures and schedules for pe rsons who own, operate or lease a source and would prefer to comply with a different option.

F. Section 715 The District amended section 715 in order to repeal and change the title from “Reasonably

Av ailable Control Technology” to “Major Source and Case

- By

- Case Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT).” The District made this amendment in order to address the applicability and requirements for sources with the theoretical potential to emit (PTE) of 25 tons per year or greater of plant

- wide emissions. The theoretical PTE of 25 tons per year or greater is the major source threshold established under the District’s 1

- Hour Ozone SIP, which is the basis

for the 8

- Hour Ozone SIP limits . Section 182 ( d) of the CAA requires severe nonattainment areas to submit revisions to the SIP in order to lower threshold for definition of “Major” source requiring controls to 25 tons per year.

Section 715 was also amended to: (1) specify how to calculate “theoretic al potential to emit”

based on VOC RACT and new source review , (2) specify what is required in a RACT analysis, and (3) specify how the District will handle source

- specific RACT analyses when issuing or modifying permits

.

G. Section 7167

The District amen ded section 716 in order to repeal and change the title from “Offset Lithography” to “Offset Litho graphy and Letterpress Printing, ” in order to include the requirements of the Offset Lithography and Letterpress Printing CTG. The District amended

section 7 16 to establish applicability for any person who owns, operates, or leases an offset lithography printing operation that i s part of any stationary source which emits, or has the theoretical PTE 25 tons per year (tpy) of VOCs or greater. Section 716 also e stablish es applicability for any offset lithography or letterpress printing operation which emits VOCs at a rate less than, equal to, or greater than 15 pounds per day actual emissio ns of VOC after January 1, 2012. Section 716 was also amended in order to : (1) address the requirements for dampening and fountain solutions, (2) address the requirements for cleaning solutions, (3) address the requirements for cover dryers or inks and heatset ovens for major sources only, and (4) specify calculations, record

- keeping requirements, and compliance.

EPA’s Offset Lithography and Letterpress Printing CTG The CTG is intended to provide state and local air pollution control authorities information that should assist them in determining RACT for VOCs for offset lithog raphic printing and letterpress printing. On November 8, 1993, EPA published a draft CTG for offset lithographic printing. (58 FR 59261). EPA developed a new CTG for the offset lithographic printing and letterpress printing entitled, “Control Techniques Guidelines for Offset Lithographic Printing and Letterpress Printing” (EPA 453/R

- 06

- 002, September 2006). This CTG provides control recommendations for reducing VOC emissions stemming from the use of fountain solutions, cleaning materials and inks in offs et lithographic printing and cleaning materials and inks in letterpress printing. In terms of applicability, the CTG recommend that the control recommendations for cleaning materials and fountain solutions apply to any offset lithographic printing operati on where the emissions associated with all aspects of that operation equal or exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lb/day) actual emissions of VOC, or an equivalent level, before

consideration of controls.

Recommendations for controlling VOC emissions from heatset inks, fountain solution, and cleaning materials used in offset lithographic printing operations , and for controlling VOC emissions from heatset inks and cleaning materials used in letterpress printing operations are as

follows:

 The recommended level of control for VOC emissions from heatset dryers is 90 percent control efficiency for a control device whose first installation date was prior to the effective date of a State RACT rule issued after the date of this CTG and 95 percent control efficiency for a contro l device whose first installation date was on or after the

effective date of a State RACT rule issued after the date of this CTG. Applicability is

based on individual heatset web offset lithographic printing presses and individual heatset web letterpress printing presses with potential to emit from the dryer, prior to controls, of

at least 25 tpy of VOC (petroleum ink oil).8

 The recommended level of control for VOC emissions from on

- press (as

- applied)

fountain solution for heatset web offset lithographic printing is 1.6 percent alcohol (by weight) in the fountain or equivalent. The recommended level of control for VOC

emissions from on

- press (as

- applied) fountain solution for sheet

- fed printing is equivalent

to 5 percent alcohol (by weight) in the fountai n or equivalent

. The recommended level of

control for VOC emissions from fountain solution for coldset web is 5 percent alcohol substitute or less (by weight) on

- press (as

- applied) and no alcohol in the fountain

solution.

 The recommendations for the cont rol of VOC emissions from cleaning solutions apply to blanket washing, roller washing, plate cleaners, metering roller cleaners , impression cylinder cleaners, rubber rejuvenators, and other cleaners used for cleaning a press, press
parts, or to remove drie d ink from areas around a press. In addition, the recommendations for cleaning materials provided do not apply to cleaners used on electronic components of a press, pre

- press cleaning operations (e.g., platemaking), post

press cleaning operations (e.g.

, b in ding), cleaning supplies (e.g., detergents) used to clean the floor (other than dried ink) in the area around a press, or cleaning performed in parts

washers or cold cleaners. EPA recommend s using cleaning materials with a VOC composite vapor pressure l ess than 10 mm Hg at 20 oC or cleaning materials containing

less than 7 0 weight percent VOC. EPA recommend s excluding 110 gallons per year of cleaning materials which meet neither the low VOC composite vapor pressure

recommendation nor the lower VOC conte nt recommendation because a small number of cleaning tasks cannot be carried out with low VOC composite vapor pressure cleaning materials or reduced VOC content cleaning materials. EPA also recommend s keeping cleaning materials and used sh op towels in clo sed containers. U sing cleaning materials with a VOC composite partial vapor pressure less than 10 mm Hg at 20 oC in conjunction with good work practices would result in an emission reduction that is comparable to using cleaning materials that contain less than 30 weight percent VOC.

H. Section 719 Section 719, Consumer Products

– General Requirements was amended to read as follows to include new VOC standards for certain consumer products in sections 719 through 737: (1) establish applicability to any p erson who sells, supplies, offers for sale, or manufactures consumer products on or after the applicable compliance dates in section 720, “Table of

EPA’s Miscellaneous Industrial Adhesive CTG The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) addressed a portion of this category, adhesives and adhesive primers, in a Control Techniques Guideline (CTG) document

- “Control Techniques Guidelines for Miscellaneous Industrial Adhesive, EPA

- 453/R

- 08

- 005” in September 2008. (See

Docket number EPA

- HQ

- O AR

- 2008

- 0460 ). EPA issued the CTG pursuant to the authority and to meet a requirement set by section 183(e) of the CAA. Section 183(e) directed EPA to list for regulation, those categories of products that account for at least 80 percent of the VOC emiss ions13

from consumer and commercial products in ozone nonattainment areas, and to schedule those categories for regulation in four groups. In terms of applicability, the scope of the CTG is focused on industrial adhesive application processes at facilities, i.e., stationary sources. The limits and requirements apply to facilities where the total actual VOC emissions from all miscellaneous industrial adhesive application processes, including related cleaning activities, at that facility are equal to or excee d 6.8 kg/day (15 lb/day), or an equivalent level such as 3 tons per 12

- month rolling period, before consideration of controls.

The CTG does not propose recommendations for VOC content or VOC composite vapor pressure limits for cleaning materials. The CTG provide s for the use of add

- on air pollution control equipment instead of meeting the solvent content limits and requires that controls reduce VOC emissions by an overall capture and control efficiency of at least 85% by weight. The CTG

also recommends t hat adhesive and adhesive primers be applied using application methods with good transfer efficiency in conjunction with the use of low

- VOC content adhesives. Specifically, the CTG recommends the following application methods: electrostatic spray, HVLP sp ray, flow coat, roll coat or hand application including non

- spray application methods similar to hand or mechanically powered caulking gun, brush, or direct hand application), roll coat, dip coat (including electrodeposition), airless spray, air

- assisted a irless spray, or other coating application method capable of achieving good transfer efficiency. (Final CTG, Section VI.B., page 19). The CTG recommends application methods with good transfer efficiencies for stationary facilities

and does not make recomm endations for field applied adhesives and sealants.

- “Control Techniques Guidelines for Industrial Clea ning Solvents

, EPA 453/R

- 06

- 001” in September 2006.

EPA issued the CTG to cover all industrial cleaning operations. EPA believes that all categories of industrial cleaning operations are represented or can be classified under one of nine cleaning categori es: (1) spray gun cleaning, (2) spray booth cleaning, (3) large manufactured components cleaning, (4) parts cleaning, (5) equipment cleaning, (6) line cleaning, (7) floor cleaning, (8) tank cleaning, and (9) small manufactured components cleaning. In ter ms of applicability, the scope

of the CTG is focused on industries that have to use organic solvent for cleaning unit operations such as mixing vessels (tanks), spray booths, and parts cleaners, where a facility emits at least 6.8 kg/day (15 lb/day) of VOC before consideration of controls in an ozone nonattainment area

.19

The recommended measures for controlling emissions of VOC from the use, storage, and disposal of industrial cleaning solvents includes work practice standards, limitations on VOC

content of the cleaning materials, and an optional alternative limit on composite vapor pressure of the cleaning materials. They also include the use of add

- on controls with an overall emission reduction of at least 85 percent by mass. The recommended VOC content l imit is 50 grams VOC per liter (0.42 1b/gal) of cleaning material unless emissions are controlled by an emission control system with an overall control efficiency of at least 85 percent. In addition to the recommended VOC content limit, EPA recommends inc lusion of a composite vapor pressure limit of 8 millimeters of mercury at 20 degrees Celsius, as (1) a replacement for the 50 g/l VOC content limit entirely; or (2) an alternative limit that may be used in lieu of the 50 g/l VOC content limit for specific operations as determined by the State.
