### STAFF REPORT

Rule 111 3

– Architectural Coatings

I. PURPOSE OF STAFF REP ORT

A staff report serves several discrete purposes. Its primary purpose is to provide a summary and background material to the members of the Governing Board. This allows the members of the Governing Board to be fully informed before making any required decision. It also provides the documentation necessary for the Governing Board to make a ny findings, which are required by law to be made prior to the approval or adoption of a document. In addition, a staff report ensures that the correct procedures and proper documentation for approval or adoption of a document have been performed. Finall y, the staff report provides evidence for defense against legal challenges regarding the propriety of the approval or adoption of the document

II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On July 1, 1997 the Antelope Valley Air Pollution Co ntrol District (AVAPCD) was created pursuant to statute (former H&S Code §40106, A.B. 266

- Knight Ch. 542, statutes of 1996) and assumed all air pollution control responsibilities from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) for the area of Los Angeles County outside the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB). The SCAQMD rules in effect within the jurisdiction of the AVAPCD remained in effect until the AVAPCD Governing Board superseded, amended, or rescinded them. On January 1, 2002 the Antelope Val ley Air Quality Management District (AVAQMD) was created pursuant to statute (California Health & Safety (H&S) Code §41300 et seq.) to replace the AVAPCD. Once again the rules in effect at the time of the change remained in effect until the AVAQMD Governi ng Board superseded, amended or rescinded them.

The California Clean Air Act (CCAA; Health & Safety (H&S) Code §§ 39000 et seq

. ) requires that each local air district which has been designated nonattainment for certain pollutants to prepare a plan desig ned to achieve and maintain state air quality standards at the earliest practicable date (Health & Safety Code §§40910 et seq.). Such plans must include, among other items, the adoption of measures designed to require the use of Reasonably Available Contr ol Technology (RACT) for all existing stationary sources of air pollution and Best Available Retrofit Technology (BARCT) for certain existing large sources of air pollution H& S Code §40918(a)(3). For purposes of the CCAA the Antelope Valley Air Quality Ma nagement District (District) has been designated nonattainment for both ozone and PM 10

.

The Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA; 42 U.S.C. §§7401 et seq.) requires areas designated nonattainment for ozone and classified moderate and above to adopt and maintain RACT rules to control the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and oxides of nitrogen (NO

x ) from major stationary sources of air pollution. For purposes of the FCAA, portions of the District have been designated nonattainment for ozone and classi fied Severe

- 17 and the entire Distr ict is

unclassified for PM 10

.2 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 From time to time the California Air Resources Board (CARB) publishes guidance documents to assist local air districts in adopting appropriate rules and regulations to meet the above require ments. These guidance documents include, but are not limited to, Suggested Control Measures (SCMs) for particular source categories. Historically these SCMs have been used as a minimum standard for air district regulations to meet the State and Federal n onattainment area requirements. The SCM for Architectural Coatings was originally adopted by CARB in 1 977 and was revised in 1985, 1989 and 2000 . In response to the adoption and revisions of the SCM for Architectural Coatings the SCAQMD adopted Rule 1113 on S eptember 2, 1977 and amended

it on December 2, 1977 , February 3, 1978, September 5, 1980, April 3, 1981, July 3, 1981, October 21, 1981, August 5, 1983, March 16, 1984, August 2, 1985, November 1, 1985, February 6, 1987, January 5, 1990, February 2, 1 990, November 2, 1990, December 7, 1990, September 6, 1991, March 8, 19 9 6, August 9, 1996, and November 8, 1996 . The AVAQMD subsequently amended Rule 1113 on March 18, 2003 . CARB, in cooperation with the local air districts, again revised the SCM for Arch itectural Coatings and adopted it on October 26, 2007

. The revised SCM for Architectural Coatings reflects both the advances in coatings technology since the last version and the need for further emissions reductions necessary to attain the State

and Fede ral ambient air quality standards in many local air districts. Specifically, the revised SCM specifies volatile organic compound (VOC) limits for 42 coating categories. The proposed

VOC limits for 19 of the 42 categories are lower than the limits specifi ed in the 2000 SCM for Architectural Coatings.

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 have been developed to conform the emissions limitations and other requirements of the rule to those set forth in the SCM for Architectural Coatings as adopted by CARB on October 26, 2007 . The proposed amendments mainly lower the VOC content limits for a number of coatings categories resulting in an estimated 15.2 tons per day reduction in VOC emissions state

- wide which represents a 28 percent overall emissions

reduction. The amendments also contain revised definitions for a variety of coating types either for clarification or to limit the types of products that qualify for inclusion in a category . Some definitions were deleted because the categories have been combined with other categories

, were replaced by new categories or were unnecessary. Additionally, amendments clarify situations where the most restrictive VOC limit is not applicable and update reporting requirements to

include sales data. Other amendments inclu de revisions to the section that describes how to determine VOC content, container labeling requirements

, a “sell

- through” provision, and an early compliance provision. Lastly, effective dates for compliance were separated into Table 1

and Table 2. Table 2 contains the VOC content limits for architectural coatings that are proposed to be eliminated effective June 18, 2014

. Table 1 contains the VOC content limits for

archi tectural coatings effective March 18, 2003

, June 18, 2003, and January 01, 2004 and t he proposed updated limits effective June 18, 2014 This rule was proposed for amendment at the May 21, 2013 governing board meeting. The hearing was continued to June 18, 2013 to address substantive comments from CARB and industry.

A. REQUIRED ELEMENTS/FI NDINGS

This section discusses the s tate of California statutory requirements that apply to the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 . These are actions that need to be performe d and/or information that must be provided in order to amend the rule in a procedurally correct

manner.

1. State Findings Required for Adoption of Rules & Regulations:

Before adopt ing, amending, or repealing a rule or regulation, the Governing Board is required to make findings of necessity, authority, clarity, consistency,

non

- duplication, and reference based upon relevant information presented at the hearing. The information below is provided to assist the Governing Board in making these findings.

a. Necessity:

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are necessary to conform

the rule to the CARB SCM for Architectural Coatings , to comply with the CCAA requireme nts for nonattainment areas to attain the state air quality standards as expeditiously as possible and to comply with the FCAA requirements for nonattainment areas to impose RACT for all existing major sources of air pollution.

b. Authority:

The District has the authority pursuant to Calif ornia H&S Code §40702 to adopt, amend or repeal rules and regulations.

c. Clarity:

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are clear in that they are written so that the persons subject to the r ule can easily understand the meaning.6 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 d. Consistency:

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are in harmony with, and not in conflict with or contradictory t o any s tate law or regulation,

f

ederal law or regulation, or court decisions because they implement the provision of the SCM for Architectural Coatings

.

e. Non

- duplication:

The proposed amendments to not impose the same requi rements as any existing s tate or f ederal law or regulation because the SCM for Architectural Coating s is merely a guidance document which provides suggested methods for complying with CCAA requirements to attain the state ambient air quality standards at t he earliest practicable date. When adopted and implemented by local

air districts the SCM for Architectural Coatings becomes a de

facto RACT standard. However, the provisions of the SCM for Architectural Coatings cannot be implemented without local rule adoption.

f. Reference:

The District has the authority pursuant to H& S Code §40702 to adopt, amend or repeal rules and regulations.

g. Public Notice & Comment, Public Hearing:

Notice for the public hearing for the proposed amendments to Rule

1113 was published May 17 , 2013

. This rule was proposed for amendment at the May 21, 2013 governing board meeting. The hearing was continued to June 18, 2013 to address substantive comments from CARB and industry. See Appendix “B” for a copy of the public notice. See Appendix “C” for copies of comments, if any, and District responses.

2. Federal Elements (SIP Submittals, Other Federal Submittals).

Submittals to USEPA are required to include various elements depending upon the type of documen t submitted and the underlying f ederal law that requires the

submittal. The information below indicates which elements are required for the proposed of Rule 1113 and how they were satisfied.

a. Satisfaction of Underlying Federal Requirements:

The FCAA requires areas designated non

- attainment and classified

m oderate and above to implement RACT for sources subject toAVAQMD Rule 1113 7
Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 CTG and ACT documents issued by USEPA for major sources of

VOCs and oxides of nitrogen ( NO X ) which are ozone precursors.

The adoption of the amended SCM for Architectural Coatings and its subsequent adoption and enforcement by other air district s makes the coatings formulations required “reasonably available”.

Thus the SCM for Architectural Coatings has become a de

- facto

RACT standard for this source category.

b. Public Notice and Comment:

Notice for the public hearing for the proposed amendments to Rule

1113 was published May 17 , 2013. This rule was proposed for amendment at the May 21, 2013 governing board meeting. The hearing was contin ued to June 18, 2013 to address substantive comments from CARB and industry. See Appendix “B” for a copy of the public notice. See Appendix “C” for copies of comments, if any, and District responses.

c. Availability of Document:

Copies of the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 and the accompanying draft staff report was made available to the public on or before April 5, 2013

. Additionally, in 2005 the C ARB staff initiated a number of activities to develop the proposed SCM. These activities included: conducting a survey of architectural coatings, meeting with district and US EPA Region IX representatives; h osting public workshops; m eeting with industry trade groups and individual manufacturers; m eeting with essential public services agencies; e valuating the South Coast AQMD’s

Rule 1113 and the U S EPA’s National Architectural Coatings Rule;

c onducting technology assessments of all the coating categorie s;

e valuating durability and performance research for several coating categories; p reparing an environmental impact analysis; and

c onducting an economic impacts survey and preparing an

economic analysis.

d. Notice to Specified Entities:

Copies of the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 and the accompanying draft staff report were sent to all affected agencies. The proposed rule amendments were sent to CARB and USEPA on

or before April 5, 2013

.

e. Public Hear ing:

A public hearing to consider the proposed amendments to Rule

1113 was set for May 21, 2013

. The hearing was continued to8 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 June 18, 2013 to address substantive comments from CARB and industry.

f. Legal Authority to Adopt and Implement:

The District has the authority pursuant to H&S Code §40702 to adopt, amend, or repeal rules and regulations and to do such acts as may be necessary or proper to execute the duties i mposed upon the

District.

g. Applicable State Laws and Regulations Were Followed:

Public notice and hearing procedures pursuant to H&S Code §§40725

- 40728 have been followed. See Section (V )(A)(1) above for compliance with state findings required pursuant to H&S Code §40727. See Section (V)(B) below for compliance with the required analysis of existing requirements pursuant to H&S Code §40727.2. See Section (V)(C) for compliance with econo mic analysis requirements pursuant to H&S Code §40920.6. See Section (V)(D) below for compliance with provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

B. WRITTEN ANALYSIS OF EXISTING REQUIREMENT S

H&S Code §40727.2 requires air districts to prepare a written analysis of all existing federal air pollution control requirements that apply to the same equipment or source type as the rule proposed for modification by the district. The USEPA has promulgated a standard for VOC emissions from architectural coatings ( 40 CFR 52, 9/11/98 63 FR

48877 ). While this Federal regulation was in all probability RACT at the time it was adopted there have been significant advances in coatings technology si nce 1998. These

advances are reflected in the SCM for Architectural Coatings as adopted by CARB on October 26, 2007

. The SCM for Architectural Coatings has been adopted by at least 7 of

the local air districts in California and will therefore be consider ed RACT by USEPA.

Please see Table 1 in section ( VI )(B) below for a comparison of the requirements between the Federal regulation, current South Coast Air Quality Management District limits, current Rule 1113, and the proposed amended Rule 1113.AVAQMD Rule 1113 9
Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 C. ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

1. General

As a part of the adoption process for the SCM for Architectural Coatings staff of CARB prepared an extensive economic analysis of the potential economic impacts

and cost e ffectiveness of the proposed SCM. This analysis was contained in the Staff Report for the Proposed Suggested Control Measure for Architectural Coatings (CARB Staff Report). 1

The District fully expects that the economic impacts detailed in the CARB staff report will be mitigated within the district due to several factors. First, the high population density areas of the District are physically located adjacent to the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) . The SCAQMD has for several years req uired equivalent, and in some cases more stringent , VOC content limits on architectural coatings than those in the SCM for Architectural Coatings . In fact, many of the limits contained in the SCM for Architectural Coatings are based upon limits in effect in the SCAQMD prior to the 2007 adoption of the SCM. The District is informed that the distributors within the SCAQMD supply a majority of the retail paint outlets located within the district. The District is also informed that many distributors supply S CAQMD compliant paint to retail outlets located within the District . Thus, there should be little, if any, change in retail prices within the District for common coating types.

2. Incremental Cost Effectiveness

Pursuant to H&S Code §40920.6, incremental cost effectiveness calculations are required for rules and regulations which are adopted or amended to meet the

California Clean Air Act requirements for Best Available Retrofit Control Technology (BARCT) or “all feasible measures” to control emissions of VOC

, NO X or oxides of sulfur (SO X )

.

The CARB Staff report estimated the overall average cost effectiveness of the SCM for Architectural Coatings to be $1.12 per pound of VOC reduced. The

district concurs w ith this estimate. For a complete analysis of incremental cost

effec tiveness please see Section (G)(2)

– Economic Impacts of the CARB Staff Report

.

1 Staff Report for Proposed Amendments to the Suggested Control Measure for Architectural Coatings (9/2007)10 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 D. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYS IS (CEQA)

1. Through the process described below the appropriate CEQA process for the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 was determined.

a. The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 meet the CEQA definition of “project”. They are not “ministerial” actions.

b. The proposed amendment of Rule 11 1 3 is exempt from CEQA review because it will not create any adverse impacts on the environment. The proposed requirements in

the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are more stringent than the currently existing requirements (see more detailed

discussion in Rule Summary §(D)) in that: rule applicability is expanded to include current CTG source categories; definitions are updated to make the rule more comprehensive, reflect the current applicability of the rule, and provide additional clarity; VOC limits for various categories of coatings and solvent coating operations have been included; Work practice requirements have been added; and, the monitoring and recordkeeping, and test method sections have been strengthened. N o adverse

environmental effects are for eseen from the proposed amendments. Therefore, a Class 8 categorical exemption (14 Cal. Code Reg. §15308) applies. Copies of the documents relating to CEQA can be found in Appendix

“D”.

E. SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRON MENTAL ANALYSIS

1. Potential Environmental Impacts

T he potential environmental impacts of the SCM for Architectural Coatings on a statewide level were addressed by CARB in its Final Program Environmenta l Impact Report for Suggested Control Measure for Architectural Coatings (June 2000). The analysis concluded that implementing the 2000 SCM would have no significant impacts, but would have a net air quality benefit. C ARB believes that

the District can u se the Technical Support Document and the EIR from the 2000 SCM to support their environmental impact analyses in adopting 1113

– Architectural Coatings based on the 2007 SCM.AVAQMD Rule 1113 11
Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 2. Mitigation of Impacts

This issue was also addressed by CARB in its Final Program Environmental Impact Report for Suggested Control Measure for Architectural Coatings (June 2000).

3. Alternative Methods of Compliance

This issue was also addressed by CARB in its Final Program Environmental Impact Report for Suggested Control Measure for Architectural Coatings (June 2000).

F. PUBLIC REVIEW

See Staff Report S ubs ection s (V)(A)(1)(g) and (2)(b) , as well as

, Appendix “B”

.

VI. TECHNICAL DISCUSSION

A. SOURCE DESCRIPTION

Rule 1113 currently applies to all architectural coatings supplied, sold, offered for sale, manufactured, o r used within the District. The proposed amendments add applicability to coatings blended or repackaged within the District. The proposed amendments clarify that coatings supplied, sold , offered for sale or manufactured for use outside the District,

for shipment to other manufacturers or for reformulation and repackaging are exempt from the rule as are aerosol coating products which are covered by a CARB consumer product regulation. Small batches of coating sold in containers of one (1) liter or less are also exempt with the exception of reporting requirements.

Several facilities in the AV AQMD have operations potentially affected by the proposed

amendments to Rule 1113 . There are approximately 8 6 architectural coating operations

within the District whic h are served by various main suppliers

.

B. EMISSIONS

The amendments to Rule 1113 do not cause the release of additional air contaminants, or create any adverse environmental impacts because the amended rule proposes a more stringe nt applicability, as well as, more stringent VOC limits for all coating categories than the existing rule. Categories of architectural coatings have bee n added in some places, combined in others and removed in others to reflect changes in coating

technolo gy. Table 1 shows the differences between the coating limits contained in the Federal regulation (40 CFR 59), current SCAQMD limits; current Rule 1113 and the proposed amended R ule 1113.12 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 Table 1 Comparison of Coating Limits

This includes 95 tpd from coatings, and about 23 tpd from associated cleanup solvents, thinners, and additives. Total emissions from architectural coatings and associated materials represent almost 10 percent of the VOC emissions from stationary and area sources, and almost five ( 5 ) percent of the total VO C

emissions statewide. T he SCM is expected to achieve 15.2 tpd in VOC emission reductions outside of the South Coast AQMD. This represents a 28 percent overall

emission reduction. The AVAQMD’s portion of this reduction is 0.33 tons per day as

reflected in the statewide emission inventory as estimated by CARB.

This estimate assumes that coatings used within the District comply with current Rule 1113 but are not already in compliance with the new proposed limits. This assumption may not be entirely valid across all coating categories. This is due to the physical proximity of the District to SCAQMD. SCAQMD has for several years required more stringent VOC limits than those required either federally or elsewhere in California.

Because distributors within the SCAQMD supply a majority of the retail paint outlets located within the District, the District suspects that at least a portion of the paint sold within the District, especially in certain high volume sales categories, could be compliant

with current SCAQMD rules.

C. CONTROL REQUIREMENTS

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 do not impose any particular control requirements on paint users that are not already in place. Users will continue to be required to thin paint properly, apply it according to the manufacturer’s directions and engage in VOC limiting painting practices such as covering paint cans when not actively painting.

The proposed amendments primarily impact paint formulation. Since the limits similar to the proposed VOC limits have been in effect in SCAQMD for several years and due to the physical proximity of the District to SCAQMD, the District suspects that paint formulations meeting the proposed VOC limits are already available in use throughout

t he District. In addition, many of the proposed VOC limits reflect a shift in paint formulation from primarily solvent based coatings to waterborne coatings. This is especially true in the high volume sales categories. Please refer to the last column in

Table 1 of the staff report for proposed VOC content limits of particular coating types.

In addition to impacting formulation , the proposed amendments also clarify that if a coating meets criteria of a specialty coating category then it is not required to meet the VOC limits for Flat, Non f lat, or Nonflat

- High Gloss Coatings, but is required to meet the VOC limit for the applicable specialty Coating listed in Table 1 or Table 2 of Rule.

Also, the Averaging Compliance Option, previously allowing manufactur ers to average designated Coatings such that their actual cumulative emissions from the averaged14 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 Coatings are less than or equal to the cumulative emissions that would have been allowed under those limits over a compliance period not to exceed one year has been removed.

Please s ee Section C of the rule (see Appendix “A”) for control requirements. Control requirements are in the form of VOC Content Limits, Most Restrictive VOC Limits, Specialty Coating Categories, Eliminated Categories, Sell

- Through of Coa tings, Painting Practices, Thinning, Rust Preventative Coating Requirements, Coatings Not L isted, removal of Averaging Compliance Option and an Early Compliance Provision.

Appendix A: Averaging Provision was deleted.AVAQMD Rule 1113 17
Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 E. 110( L ) ANALYSIS

The version of Rule 1113 s hown in the AVAQMD SIP is the March 18, 2003 amendment ( 69 FR 52432

, August 26, 2004 ). This amendment was submitted for inclusion in the SIP but was recommended for simultaneous limited approval and limited disapproval under Section 110(k) as not fully me eting the requirements of CAA Section 110. The limited disapproval was associated with the averaging provisions in Section (C)(9) and Appendix A of the Rule 1113 which allowed manufacturers to comply with various coating limits in Table 1 by averaging the VOC content of coatings.

Therefore, the District will perform the 110(l) determination based upon differences

between the March 18, 2003 version and the current proposed amendments.

T he California Air Resources Board CARB) is required to review and approve the air quality attainment plans of local air districts which are produced pursuant to the mandates

of the California Clean Air Act ( CCAA). CARB is also required to coordinate air q uality attainment efforts statewide, oversee local air districts attainment efforts and provide technical assistance as necessary H&S Code 39002, 29500, 29605, 40916 and 41500). To fulfill these statutory mandates CARB often develops model rules or sugges ted control measures SCMs) for particular source categories. Local air districts are strongly encouraged to adopt their own versions of these SCMs to ensure that the air quality standards are achieved by the earliest practicable date H&S Code 40913). Arc hitectural Coatings has been one of the source categories for which CARB has adopted SCMs over the years. The original SCM for Architectural Coatings was adopted in 1977 and revised in 1985, 1989 and 2000

. CARB, in conjunction with local air district s, a gain amended

the SCM in 200 7

. The revised SCM for Architectural Coatings reflects both the advances in coatings technology since the last amendment and the need for further emissions reductions necessary to attain both the state and f ederal ambient air qu ality

standards. The version of Rule 1113 currently in effect in the AVAQMD rule book was amended on March 18, 2003

. The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are designed to incorporate the limits on emissions of VOCs contained in the SCM for Architectural

C oatings and to align coating categories as adopted by CARB in 2007

. The SCM lowers

the VOC limits

, improves definitions for many categories , and promote s consistency and uniformity among district rules, making it easier for manufacturers and painting

cont ractors to comply.

In order to replace existing SIP rules, the District is required to show that the proposed amendments are not less stringent than the provisions currently in the SIP.

The proposed amendment of Rule 1113 is more stringent than the provi sions currently in the SIP because rule applicability is expanded in accordance with the SCM; definitions are updated to make the rule more comprehensive, reflect the current applicability of the rule, and provide additional clarity; VOC limits for various categories of coatings and solvent coating operations have been modified to be more stringent in accordance with the SCM; the averaging compliance option has been deleted; labeling requirements have been added; the monitoring and recordkeeping, and test method sections have been clarified and strengthened; and a severability provision has been added. This amendment18 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 has also corrected the deficiencies noted in the USEPA Technical Support Document that was published with the limited approval/disapproval, M arch 2004.

. SIP HISTORY

1. SIP History

Prior to 1975 the original air district for the Antelope Valley region was the Los Angeles County APCD that had jurisdiction covering the entire county of Los Angeles. In 1975, the Southern California Air Pollution Control District (So. Cal. APCD) was cre ated by a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) between Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties to replace the previous countywide air pollution control districts for those counties. On February 1, 1977, pursuant to statute (Cal. Stats. 1976, Ch 324 p. 815), the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) was created with an initial jurisdiction that only included areas of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties contained within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB). Outly ing areas remained under the So. Cal. APCD (The legislation was thereafter amended to

allow non

- SCAB areas to “opt in”. Los Angeles County exercised this option and thus the Antelope Valley became a part of SCAQMD). Also on February 1, 1977

the Californi a Air Resources Board (CARB) issued Executive Order G

- 73 (1977) which adopted a “rule book” for those non

- SCAB areas of Los Angeles, Riverside

and San Bernardino Counties. CARB submitted the G

- 73 rulebook on behalf of the “county” districts.

By its term s Executive Order G

- 73 (1977) was only effective until the non

- SCAB areas took other action. On February 22, 1977 the JPA forming the So. Cal. APCD was formally dissolved. By the terms of the JPA upon dissolution each county would regain its county air p ollution control district with a jurisdiction of

the non

- SCAB areas of the county and the applicable rules being the So. Cal. APCD’s rules in effect upon the date of dissolution. The SCAQMD adopted Rule

1113 on September 2, 1977 and amended it on December 2, 1977, February 3, 1978, September 5, 1980, April 3, 1981, July 3, 1981, October 21, 1981, August 5, 1983, March 16, 1984, August 2, 1985, November 1, 1985, February 6, 1987, January 5, 1990, February 2, 1990, November 2, 1990, December 7, 1990, Septemb er 6, 1991, March 8, 1996, August 9, 1996, and November 8, 1996. On July 1, 1997 the Antelope Valley Air Pollution Control District (AVAPCD) replaced the SCAQMD as the agency with jurisdiction over the Los Angeles County portion of the Mojave Desert Air Bas in (MDAB). On January 1, 2002 the AVAPCD was replaced by the AVAQMD. Pursuant to the statutory change, the rules and regulations of the predecessor district were retained until the Governing Board adopted, amended or rescinded them. At its first meeting

, the AVAPCD reaffirmed all the existing rules and regulations

. Once again, pursuant to statute, the rules in effect were retained until the Governing Board adopted, amended, orAVAQMD Rule 1113 19
Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 rescinded. Similarly, at the first meeting of the AVAQMD, the Governing Boa rds reaffirmed all the rules and regulations in effect at the time the agency changed.

The jurisdiction of the AVAPCD and the AVAQMD were specified in the statutes as the portion of the Los Angeles County contained within the MDAB. The MDAB was formerly known as the Southeast Desert Air Basin (SEDAB). In 1997 the SEDAB was split into the MDAB and the Salton Sea Air Basin. Descriptions of these air basins can be found in 17 Cal. Code Regs. §§60109 and 60144. Since USEPA adopts SIP revisions in Californi a as effective within jurisdictional boundaries of local air districts, when the local air district boundaries change the SIP as approved by USEPA for that area up to the date of the change remains as the SIP in that particular area. Thus, upon creation o f the AVAPCD on July 1, 1997 the AVAPCD acquired the SIP applicable to the Antelope Valley portion of the SCAQMD that was effective as of June 30, 1997. Likewise the AVAQMD acquired the SIP that was effective in the jurisdiction of

the AVAPCD as of Decemb er 31, 2000. Therefore, the SIP history for this region is based upon the rules adopted, effective, and approved for the Antelope Valley by SCAQMD.

Rule 1113 was originally adopted on September 2, 1977 by the SCAQMD and subsequently amended multiple times

. The amendment adopted March 16, 1984 and approved January 24, 1985, 50 FR 3339 is the SCAQMD rule version that was in the SIP for the AVAPCD and the AVAQMD thereafter. The AVAQMD amended Rule 1113 on March 18, 2003

. This amendment was submitted for

in clusion in the SIP and was recommended for simultaneous limited approval and limited disapproval under Section 110(k) as not fully meeting the re quirements of

CAA Section 110 (69 FR 52432

, August 26, 2004) . The limited disapproval was

associated with the averaging provisions in Section (C)(9) and Appendix A of the Rule 1113 which allowed manufacturers to comply with various coating limits in Table 1 by averaging the VOC content of coatings. These provisions of the rule

have been removed.

F. SIP Analysis

The District will request CARB to submit the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 to replace the SIP version in effect in the AVAQMD

. This submission is necessary because the adoption of the amended SCM for Architectural Coatings and its subsequent adoption and enforcement by other air district makes the coatings formulations required “reasonably available”. Thus the SCM for Architectural Coatings has become a de

- facto RACT standard for this source

category.

Since there is a pre viously existing SIP rule for this category the District will request that it be superseded. In order to replace existing SIP rules

, the District is required to show that the proposed amendments are not less stringent than the provisions currently in the SIP.20 AVAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 07/18/2013 The proposed amendment of Rule 1113 is more stringent than the provisions currently in the SIP because rule applicability is expanded in accordance with the SCM; definitions are updated to make the rule more comprehensive, reflect the current applic ability of the rule, and provide additional clarity; VOC limits for various categories of coatings and solvent coating operations have been modified to be more stringent in accordance with the SCM; the averaging compliance option has been deleted ; labeling requirements have been added; the monitoring and recordkeeping, and test method sections have been clarified and strengthened; and a severability provision has been added. This amendment has also corrected

the deficiencies noted in the USEPA Technical S upport Document that was published with the limited approval/disapproval, March 2004.AVAQMD Rule 1113 A

c onsistently failed to take the necessary steps to correct those violations.

(VIII) CHANGE IN VOC LIMITS

If the VOC limits of a coating listed in the Program are amended such that its effective date is less than one year from the date of adoption, the affected manufacturer may base its averaging on the prior limits of that coating until the end of the compliance period immediately following the date of adoption.

(IX) LABELING

Each container of any coating that is included in averaging program, and that exceeds the applicable VOC limit in Table 1 shall display the following statement: "This product is subject to architectural coatings averaging provisions in California.” A symbol specified by CARB may be used as a substitute.1113
