MEMORANDUM

TO: Dave Guinnup, Leader Sector Based Assessment Group FROM: Kaye Whitfield, Project Lead Risk and Technology Review - National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair (Surface Coating) Operations SUBJECT: Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) Allowable Emission Estimates

I. Discussion of Actual Emissions and MACT Allowable Emissions For the most part, the emissions values in the proposed shipbuilding and ship repair (surface coating) data sets represent actual emission levels. We discuss the use of “actual emissions” versus the use of “MACT allowable” emissions for residual risk assessments both in the National Emission Standards for Coke Oven Batteries residual risk final rule (70 FR 19998- 19999, April 15, 2005) and the Hazardous Organic NE SHAP (HON) proposed and final residual risk rules (71 FR 34428, June 14, 2006, and 71 FR 76609, December 21, 2006, respectively). In those actions, we note that asse ssing the MACT allowable levels of emissions (i.e., the highest emission levels that can be emitted while maintain ing the same activity level and still complying with the NESHAP requirements) is inherently reasonable since they reflect the maximum level sources can emit and still comply with national emission standards. However, we also explain that it is reasonable to consider actual emissions, where such data are available, in both steps of the risk analysis, in accordance with the Be nzene NESHAP (54 FR 38044, September 14, 1989). Considering actual emissions is r easonable because sources typicallyseek to perform better than required by emission standards in order to provide an operational cushion to accommodate the variability in manufacturing proc esses and control device perfor mance. Failure to consider actual emissions data in devel oping risk estimates would unrealis tically inflate estimated risk levels. We believe that, for future actions under the RTR program, the most prudent approach is to consider not only the actual emissions, but also the emission levels that represent the quantity of emissions allowed by the MACT standard (i.e ., the “MACT allowable” emissions levels). Actual emissions are contained in the NEI-based data sets, available on the RTR website, and used for the preliminary risk reports in the docket. For processes that exhibit a greater degree of control than what the MACT requires, we expect to see a difference between actual emissions levels and the MACT allowable emissions levels . Specifically, we expect the MACT allowable

## 2 emissions to be higher than the actual emissions. For processes that exhibit the control required by MACT, we expect to see no difference betw een actual emissions and the MACT allowable emissions. We performed a preliminary analysis for the shipbuilding and sh ip repair (surface coating) source category to determine the relatio nship between the actual emissions levels and MACT allowable emissions levels. In the fo llowing section, we disc uss these preliminary analyses and specifically request data to im prove them. We will consider any comments submitted on the preliminary approach described below, and we will use any new data received to refine our MACT allowable analyses. We evaluated potential regulatory amendments for proposal considering the risks at both the actual and MACT allowable emissions levels.

II. Source Category-Specific Summary
As discussed above, we conducted the risk a ssessment to support this action using the actual emissions in the dataset, and we also considered the risks at the MACT allowable emission levels by examining the relationship betw een the actual emission levels and the MACT allowable emission levels. For the shipbuildi ng and ship repair (surface coating) source category, the MACT standard requires coating limits for several types of marine surface coatings categories, including a general us e category and 22 specialty coatings categories. Also, the standard requires work practice standards that minimize evaporative emissions and spills from the handling, transfer and stor age of organic thinning solvents and paint wastes. The MACT standard is in the format of volatile organic hazardous air pollut ants (VOHAP), and the units are grams per liter of coating minus water and exempt compounds. (See Table 1 below for a summary of marine coating VOHAP limits from the NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair (Surface Coating) Operations (60 FR 64330)).

In the assessment of the actual emissions-to-MACT allowable emissions relationship, we identified the highest usage coating categories at several major source shipyards and found the reported VOHAP contents were generally 50 to 100 percent of the applicable VOHAP limit, depending on the specific types of coatings used at each shipyard. Table 2 summarizes several examples of representative co atings with the VOC (surrogate for VOHAP) contents and the applicable NESHAP (MACT) coating limit. (The re are several marine coating suppliers and hundreds of different coatings used at major sour ce shipyards and the listed coatings are only intended as examples of high usage coatings ba sed on the surface area of ships.) Based on this available information, we estimate MACT allowabl e emissions to be as high as two times (2X) the actual emissions from shipbuilding and ship repair (surface coating) operations.

When used over recommended primers, refer to application instructions for the specific primer being used for surface preparation data and application and drying procedures. For conditions outside the requirements or limitations d escribed, contact your PPG representative. 

## Surface Preparation Coating performance is proportional to the degree of surface preparation. Refer to specifications for the specific primer being used. Prior to coating, primed surface must be clean, d ry, undamaged and free of all contaminants including salt d eposits. Round off all rough welds and remove all weld
s patter. Steel

– Remove all loose rust, dirt, grease or other contaminants by one of the following depending on the degree of cleanliness required: SSPC-SP2, 3, 6 or 7. For more severeservice and immersion, clean to SSPC-SP10. SSPC-SP12 (WJ2L) is also acceptable over a previously blasted surface. The maximum soluble salt content for saltwater immersion should be 3 μg/cm 2

. For freshwater immersion, the limit is 2 μg/cm 2

. For atmospheric exposure, it can be as high as 10 μg/cm 2

. The choice of surface preparation will depend on the system selected and end-use service conditions. Blast to achieve a dense, angular anchor profile of 1-2 mils (25-50 micr ons) as indicated by a Keane-T ator Sur faceProfile Comparator or Testex Tape. Increase coating thickness if profile greater than 3 mils. Galvanizing

– Remove oil or soap film with neutral deter

gent or emulsion cleaner; then use zinc treatment such as Galvapr ep ® or equivalent or blast lightly with fine abrasive. Aluminum

– Remove oil, gr ease or soap film with neutral detergent or emulsion cleaner; treat with Alodine ® 1200, Alumiprep ® or equivalent or blast lightly with fine abrasive. Concrete/masonry

– Surface must be cured, clean, dry, fr ee of contamination and disintegrated or chalky materi

als. Clean concr ete sur face; abrasive blast (ASTM D4259)
or acid etch (ASTM D4260). Fill concrete voids with Amercoat 965 or 114A to achieve a smooth surface. Clean
masonry sur face by ASTM D4261. Fill masonry block with Amerlock ® 400BF Block Filler. Aged coatings

– All sur faces must be clean, dry, tightly bonded and fr ee of all loose paint, cor rosion products or chalky residue. Clean by low pressure water cleaning (1000 psi, min.), SSPC-SP1, 2, 3 or 7. Amercoat 385 is compatible over most types of properly applied and tightly adhering coatings. However, a test patch is recommended to confirm compatibility. Repair

– Pr epar e damaged areas to original surface preparation specifications, feathering edges of intact coating. Thoroughly remove dust or abrasive residue before touch up. 

## Application Equipment Airless spray

– Standard equipment such as Graco Bulldog or larger with a 0.15- to 0.021- in. (0.38 to 0.53 mm) fluid tip. Conventional spray

– Industrial equipment such as DeVilbiss MBC or JGA spray gun with 78 or 765 air cap and “E” fluid tip, or Binks No. 18 or 62 gun with a 66 x63PB nozzle set up. Separate air and fluid pressure regulators, and a moisture and oil trap in the main air supply line ar e r ecommended. Power mixer

– Jiffy Mixer powered by an air or an explosion-proof electric motor. Brush – Natural bristle. Maintain wet edge. Roller

– Use industrial roller. Level any air bubbles with bristle brush. 

## Application Procedure Amercoat 385 or 385PA consists of two components which
m ust be mixed together before use. It is packaged in the proper portions in 2- or 10-gallon units. 1. Flush equipment with thinner or Amercoat 12 before
use. 2. Stir each component thoroughly, then combine resin and cure and mix until uniform. When using Amercoat 880 glassflake, add material to mixed unit of Amercoat 385 following 880. Instructions for use. 3 . Thin only if necessary for workability, add Amercoat 1 01 up to 1 ⁄ 2 p int (approximately 6%) per gallon of Amercoat 385. Use Amercoat 65 when faster drying is desired. Use Amercoat 101 when applying in confined spaces. Use only PPG recommended thinners. 4. Do not mix more material than will be used within pot life. Pot life is shortened by higher temperatures. 5. For conventional spray, use adequate air pressure and volume to ensure proper atomization. 6. Apply a wet coat in even, parallel passes; overlap each pass 50 percent. If required, cross-spray at right angles to avoid holidays, bare areas and pinholes. Note: When applying directly over inorganic zincs or zinc-rich primers, a mist coat/full coat technique may be required to minimize bubbling. This will depend onthe age of the primer, surface roughness, and environmental conditions during application and curing.7. When applying antifouling coatings, apply first antifouling coat while Amercoat 385 is still soft to thumb pressure. Failure to apply antifouling while Amercoat 385 is still soft may r esult in poor adhesion between coatings and eventual delamination of the antifouling. 8. Nor mal r ecommended dry film thickness per coat is 4 to 6 mils for 385 and 6 to 14 mils for 385 with 880. However, if greater thickness is applied in local areas because of overlapping, no runs or sags will normally occur at a dry film thickness up to 10 mils for 385 and 16 mils for 385 with 880. Total dry film thickness in two coats must not exceed 16 mils for 385 and 32 mils for 385 with 880. 9. A wet film thickness of 6 mils (150 micr ons) nor mally pr ovides 4 mils (100 microns) of dry film.10. When using brush or roller application method, additional coats may be r equir ed to achieve pr oper film thickness.11. When a pinhole-free film is required, check film continuity of material with a nondestructive holiday detector such as Tinker and Rasor Model M-1. Apply additional Amercoat 385 to areas requiring touch up. 12. Clean all equipment with thinner or Amercoat 12 immediately after use.

When used over recommended primers, refer to application instructions for the specific primer being used for surface preparation data and application and drying procedures. For conditions outside the requirements or limitations d escribed, contact your PPG representative. 

## Surface Preparation Coating performance is proportional to the degree of surface preparation. Refer to specifications for the specific primer being used. Prior to coating, primed surface must be clean, d ry, undamaged and free of all contaminants including salt d eposits. Round off all rough welds and remove all weld
s patter. Steel

– Remove all loose rust, dirt, grease or other contaminants by one of the following depending on the degree of cleanliness required: SSPC-SP2, 3, 6 or 7. For more severeservice and immersion, clean to SSPC-SP10. SSPC-SP12 (WJ2L) is also acceptable over a previously blasted surface. The maximum soluble salt content for saltwater immersion should be 3 μg/cm 2

. For freshwater immersion, the limit is 2 μg/cm 2

. For atmospheric exposure, it can be as high as 10 μg/cm 2

. The choice of surface preparation will depend on the system selected and end-use service conditions. Blast to achieve a dense, angular anchor profile of 1-2 mils (25-50 micr ons) as indicated by a Keane-T ator Sur faceProfile Comparator or Testex Tape. Increase coating thickness if profile greater than 3 mils. Galvanizing

– Remove oil or soap film with neutral deter

gent or emulsion cleaner; then use zinc treatment such as Galvapr ep ® or equivalent or blast lightly with fine abrasive. Aluminum

– Remove oil, gr ease or soap film with neutral detergent or emulsion cleaner; treat with Alodine ® 1200, Alumiprep ® or equivalent or blast lightly with fine abrasive. Concrete/masonry

– Surface must be cured, clean, dry, fr ee of contamination and disintegrated or chalky materi

als. Clean concr ete sur face; abrasive blast (ASTM D4259)
or acid etch (ASTM D4260). Fill concrete voids with Amercoat 965 or 114A to achieve a smooth surface. Clean
masonry sur face by ASTM D4261. Fill masonry block with Amerlock ® 400BF Block Filler. Aged coatings

– All sur faces must be clean, dry, tightly bonded and fr ee of all loose paint, cor rosion products or chalky residue. Clean by low pressure water cleaning (1000 psi, min.), SSPC-SP1, 2, 3 or 7. Amercoat 385 is compatible over most types of properly applied and tightly adhering coatings. However, a test patch is recommended to confirm compatibility. Repair

– Pr epar e damaged areas to original surface preparation specifications, feathering edges of intact coating. Thoroughly remove dust or abrasive residue before touch up. 

## Application Equipment Airless spray

– Standard equipment such as Graco Bulldog or larger with a 0.15- to 0.021- in. (0.38 to 0.53 mm) fluid tip. Conventional spray

– Industrial equipment such as DeVilbiss MBC or JGA spray gun with 78 or 765 air cap and “E” fluid tip, or Binks No. 18 or 62 gun with a 66 x63PB nozzle set up. Separate air and fluid pressure regulators, and a moisture and oil trap in the main air supply line ar e r ecommended. Power mixer

– Jiffy Mixer powered by an air or an explosion-proof electric motor. Brush – Natural bristle. Maintain wet edge. Roller

– Use industrial roller. Level any air bubbles with bristle brush. 

## Application Procedure Amercoat 385 or 385PA consists of two components which
m ust be mixed together before use. It is packaged in the proper portions in 2- or 10-gallon units. 1. Flush equipment with thinner or Amercoat 12 before
use. 2. Stir each component thoroughly, then combine resin and cure and mix until uniform. When using Amercoat 880 glassflake, add material to mixed unit of Amercoat 385 following 880. Instructions for use. 3 . Thin only if necessary for workability, add Amercoat 1 01 up to 1 ⁄ 2 p int (approximately 6%) per gallon of Amercoat 385. Use Amercoat 65 when faster drying is desired. Use Amercoat 101 when applying in confined spaces. Use only PPG recommended thinners. 4. Do not mix more material than will be used within pot life. Pot life is shortened by higher temperatures. 5. For conventional spray, use adequate air pressure and volume to ensure proper atomization. 6. Apply a wet coat in even, parallel passes; overlap each pass 50 percent. If required, cross-spray at right angles to avoid holidays, bare areas and pinholes. Note: When applying directly over inorganic zincs or zinc-rich primers, a mist coat/full coat technique may be required to minimize bubbling. This will depend onthe age of the primer, surface roughness, and environmental conditions during application and curing.7. When applying antifouling coatings, apply first antifouling coat while Amercoat 385 is still soft to thumb pressure. Failure to apply antifouling while Amercoat 385 is still soft may r esult in poor adhesion between coatings and eventual delamination of the antifouling. 8. Nor mal r ecommended dry film thickness per coat is 4 to 6 mils for 385 and 6 to 14 mils for 385 with 880. However, if greater thickness is applied in local areas because of overlapping, no runs or sags will normally occur at a dry film thickness up to 10 mils for 385 and 16 mils for 385 with 880. Total dry film thickness in two coats must not exceed 16 mils for 385 and 32 mils for 385 with 880. 9. A wet film thickness of 6 mils (150 micr ons) nor mally pr ovides 4 mils (100 microns) of dry film.10. When using brush or roller application method, additional coats may be r equir ed to achieve pr oper film thickness.11. When a pinhole-free film is required, check film continuity of material with a nondestructive holiday detector such as Tinker and Rasor Model M-1. Apply additional Amercoat 385 to areas requiring touch up. 12. Clean all equipment with thinner or Amercoat 12 immediately after use.

REPAIR CDP (Controlled Depletion Polymer) antifoulings can build up a thick leached layer during service which must be removed prior to application of Interspeed 340. To remove this leached layer, treat the entire area by close high pressure fresh water washing using a fan-jet lance held close to the surface (3,000 p.s.i., 211 kg/cm2) as soon as the vessel enters dock and before it dries out. Consult International Paint for alternative methods of surface preparation. Repair corroded areas with the recommended primer coating scheme and apply Interspeed 340 (Base Coat) within the overcoating interval specified for the primer (consult the relevant primer data sheet). Ensure that the total area is clean and dry, then overcoat with Interspeed 340 (Top Coat). For overcoating TBT copolymer antifoulings, always use Interspeed 340 (Base Coat) as the first coat. Consult your International Paint representative for specific recommendations. NOTE For use in Marine situations in North America, the following surface preparation standards can be used: SSPC-SP10 in place of Sa21⁄2 (ISO 8501-1:2007)
