### STAFF REPORT

Rule 1113
– Architectural Coatings

I. PURPOSE OF STAFF REPORT

A staff report serves several discrete purposes. I ts primary purpose is to provide a summary and background material to the members of the Mojave De sert Air Quality Management District Governing Board (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 any findi ngs, which are required by law to be made prior to the approval or adoption of a document. I n addition, a staff report ensures that the correct procedures and proper documentation for app roval or adoption of a document have been performed. Finally, the staff report provides evid ence for defense against legal challenges regarding the propriety of the approval or adoption of the document.

II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The California Clean Air Act (CCAA; Health & Safety (H&S) Code §§ 39000 et seq.) requires that each local air district which has been designa ted nonattainment for certain pollutants to prepare a plan designed to achieve and maintain sta te air quality standards at the earliest practicable date (Health & Safety Code §§40910 et s eq.). Such plans must include, among other items, the adoption of measures designed to require the use of Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) for all existing stationary sourc es of air pollution and Best Available Retrofit Technology (BARCT) for certain existing la rge sources of air pollution H&S Code §40918(a)(3). For purposes of the CCAA the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District (District) has been designated nonattainment for bo th ozone and PM 10

.

The Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA; 42 U.S.C. §§7401 e t 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 purp oses of the FCAA, portions of the District have been designated nonattainment for ozone and classif ied Severe-17 and the entire District has

been classified nonattianment for PM 10

.

From time to time the California Air Resources Boar d (CARB) publishes guidance documents to assist local air districts in adopting appropriate rules and regulations to meet the above requirements. These guidance documents include, bu t 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 me et the State and Federal nonattainment area requirements. The SCM for Architectural Coatings was originally adopted by CARB in 1977 and was revised in 1985, 1989 and 2000. In respons e to the adoption and revisions of the SCM for Architectural Coatings the District adopted Rule 1113 on February 20, 197 9 and amended it on June 4, 1984, November 2, 1992, and February 24, 2003. CARB, in cooperation with the local air districts, again revised the SCM for Arch itectural Coatings and adopted it on October1113-2 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 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 Federal ambient air quality standards in many local air districts. Specifically, the revised SCM specifies volatile organic compound (VO C) limits for 42 coating categories. The proposed VOC limits for 19 of the 42 categories are lower than the limits specified in the 2000 SCM for Architectural Coatings.

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 have been deve loped to conform the emissions limitations and other requirements of the rule to t hose set forth in the SCM for Architectural Coatings as adopted by CARB on October 26, 2007. The propo sed amendments mainly lower the VOC content limits for a number of coatings cat egories 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 def initions 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 hav e been combined with other categories, were replaced by new categories or were unnecessary. Ad ditionally, amendments clarify situations where the most restrictive VOC limit is not applica ble and update reporting requirements to

include sales data. Other amendments include revis ions to the section that describes how to determine VOC content, container labeling requireme nts, a “sell-through” provision, and an early compliance provision. Lastly, effective date s for compliance were separated into Table 1

and Table 2. Table 2 contains the VOC content limi ts for architectural coatings that are proposed to be eliminated effective January 1, 2013 . Table 1 contains the VOC content limits for architectural coatings effective 2/24/2003 and the proposed updated limits effective 1/1/2013.

The hearing to consider the amendment of Rule 1113 was originally noticed for February 27, 2012. This hearing was continued to the March 26, 2012 meeting to address CARB/public comments. The March 26, 2012 meeting was cancelled and all items deferred to the next regularly scheduled meeting of April 23, 2012.

III. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends that the Governing Board of the Mo jave Desert Air Quality Management District adopt the proposed amendments to Rule 1113

– Architectural Coatings and approve the appropriate CEQA documentation. This action is nec essary to conform the rule to the SCM for Architectural Coatings as adopted by CARB on October 26, 2007.

A. REQUIRED ELEMENTS/FINDINGS

This section discusses the state of California stat utory requirements that apply to the proposed amendments to Rule 1113. These are action s that need to be performed 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 adopting, amending, or repealing a rule or r egulation, the Governing Board is required to make findings of necessity, au thority, clarity, consistency, non-duplication, and reference based upon relevant information presented at the hearing. The information below is provided to assis t 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 requirements for nonattainment areas to attain the state air quality standards as expeditiously as pos sible and to comply with the FCAA requirements for nonattainment areas to impose RACT for all existing major sources of air p ollution.

b. Authority:

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

c. Clarity:

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are clear in t hat they are written so that the persons subject to the rule can easily understand the meaning.

d. Consistency:

The proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are in harmony with, and not in conflict with or contradictory to any State law or regulation, Federal law or regulation, or court decisions.

e. Non-duplication:

The proposed amendments to not impose the same requ irements as any existing State or Federal law or regulation bec ause the SCM for Architectural Coating s is merely a guidance document whichMDAQMD Rule 1113 1113

- 5

Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 provides suggested methods for complying with CCAA requirements to attain the state ambient air qualit y standards at the earliest practicable date. When adopted and implem ented by local

air districts the SCM for Architectural Coatings becomes a defacto RACT standard. However, the provisions of th e 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 amen dments to Rule 1113 was published January 27, 2012 for the Februar y 27, 2012 meeting. This hearing was continued to the March 2 6, 2012 meeting to address CARB/public comments. The March 26, 201 2 meeting was cancelled and all items deferred the next regul arly scheduled meeting of April 23, 2012. See Appendix “B” for a copy of the public notice. See Appendix “C” for copies of comm ents, 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 document submitted and the underlying f ederal law that requires the

submittal. The information below indicates which e lements 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 a nd classified moderate and above to implement RACT for sources su bject to CTG and ACT documents issued by USEPA for major sou rces 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 ai r districts makes the coatings formulations required “reasonabl y 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 amen dments to Rule 1113 was published January 27, 2012 for the Februar y 27, 20121113-6 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 meeting. This hearing was continued to the March 2 6, 2012 meeting to address CARB/public comments. The March 26, 201 2 meeting was cancelled and all items deferred the next regul arly scheduled meeting of April 23, 2012. See Appendix “B” for a copy of the public notice. See Appendix “C” for copies of comm ents, 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 January 13, 2012. Industry was encouraged to re view the proposed amendments on August 11, 2011 when a lette r stating intent of the proposed changes was mailed. Additio nally, in 2005

the CARB staff initiated a number of activities to develop the proposed SCM. These activities included: conducti ng a survey of architectural coatings, meeting with district and U SEPA Region IX representatives; hosting public workshops; meetin g with industry trade groups and individual manufacturers; meeting with essential public services agencies; evaluating the South Coa st AQMD’s

Rule 1113 and the USEPA’s National Architectural Co atings Rule; conducting technology assessments of all the coatin g categories; evaluating durability and performance research for several coating categories; preparing an environmental impact anal ysis; and conducting 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 af fected agencies. The proposed rule amendments were sent to CARB and USEPA on or before January 13, 2012.

e. Public Hearing:

A public hearing to consider the proposed amendment s to Rule 1113 has been set for February 27, 2012. This hear ing was continued to the March 26, 2012 meeting to address CARB/public comments. The March 26, 2012 meeting was cancelled and all items deferred the next regularly scheduled meeting of Ap ril 23, 2012.

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 t o do such acts asMDAQMD Rule 1113 1113

Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 may be necessary or proper to execute the duties im posed upon the

District.

g. Applicable State Laws and Regulations Were Follo wed:

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 pursuan t to H&S Code §40727. See Section (V)(B) below for compliance wi th the required analysis of existing requirements pursuant to H&S Code §40727.2. See Section (V)(C) for compliance with e conomic 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 REQUIREMENTS

H & S Code §40727.2 requires air districts to prepa re a written analysis of all existing federal air pollution control requirements that app ly to the same equipment or source type as the rule proposed for modification by the distri ct. The USEPA has promulgated a

standard for VOC emissions from architectural coati ngs (40 CFR 52, 9/11/98 63 FR 48877). While this Federal regulation was in all p robability RACT at the time it was adopted there have been significant advances in coa tings technology since 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 6 of the local

air districts in California and will therefore be c onsidered RACT by USEPA. Please see Table 1 in section (VI)(B) below for a comparison o f the requirements between the Federal regulation, current South Coast Air Quality Managem ent District limits, current Rule 1113, and the proposed amended Rule 1113.

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 effectiveness of the proposed SCM. This a nalysis was contained in the Staff Report for the Proposed Suggested Control Mea sure for Architectural Coatings (CARB Staff Report). 1

The District fully expects that the economic impact s 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 physic ally located adjacent to the South Coast Air Quality Management. The SCAQMD has for several years required equivalent, and in some cases more stringe nt, VOC content limits on

1 Staff Report for Proposed Amendments to the Suggested Co ntrol Measure for Architectural Coatings (9/2007)1113-8 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 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 20 07 adoption of the SCM. The

District is informed that the distributors within t he SCAQMD supply a majority of the retail paint outlets located within the distric t. The District is also informed that many distributors supply SCAQMD 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 eff ectiveness calculations are required for rules and regulations which are adopte d or amended to meet the California Clean Air Act requirements for Best Avai lable Retrofit Control Technology (BARCT) or “all feasible measures” to co ntrol 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 poun d of VOC reduced. The district concurs with this estimate. For a complet e analysis of incremental cost effectiveness please see Section (G)(2) – Economic Impacts of the CARB Staff Report

.

D. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS (CEQA)

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

.

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

b. The proposed amendment of Rule 1113 is exempt fr om CEQA review because it will not create any adverse impacts on the environment. The proposed requireme nts in the proposed amendments to Rule 1113 are more strin gent than the currently existing requirements (see more detailed discussion in Rule Summary §(D)) in that: rule applicability is expanded to include current CTG so urce categories; definitions are updated to make the rul e more comprehensive, reflect the current applicability of the rule, and provide additional clarity; VOC limits for vari ous categories of coatings and solvent coating operatio ns have been included; Work practice requirements have been added; and, the monitoring and recordkeeping, and t est method sections have been strengthened. Therefore, noMDAQMD Rule 1113 1113

- 9

Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 adverse environmental effects are foreseen from the proposed amendments. Therefore, a Class 8 categori cal exemption (14 Cal. Code Reg. §15308) applies. Copie s of the documents relating to CEQA can be found in Appe ndix

“D”.

E. SUPPLEMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS

1. Potential Environmental Impacts

The potential environmental impacts of the SCM for Architectural Coatings on a statewide level were addressed by CARB in its Final Program Environmental Impact Report for Suggested Control Measure for Arc hitectural Coatings (June 2000). The analysis concluded that implementing th e 2000 SCM would have no significant impacts, but would have a net air quali ty benefit. CARB believes that the District can use 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.

2. Mitigation of Impacts

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

F. PUBLIC REVIEW

See Staff Report Subsections (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 co atings supplied, sold, offered for sale, manufactured, or used within the District. The pro posed amendments add applicability to coatings blended or repackaged within the District. The proposed amendments clarify that coatings supplied, sold, offered for sale or m anufactured for use outside the District, for shipment to other manufacturers or for reformul ation and repackaging are exempt from the rule as are aerosol coating products which are covered by a CARB consumer1113-10 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 product regulation. Small batches of coating sold in containers of one (1) liter or less are also exempt with the exception of reporting require ments.

Several facilities in the MDAQMD have operations po tentially affected by the proposed amendments to Rule 1113. There are approximately 8 5 architectural coating operations within the District which are served by various mai n suppliers.

B. EMISSIONS

The amendments to Rule 1113 do not cause the releas e of additional air contaminants, or create any adverse environmental impacts because th e amended rule proposes a more stringent applicability, as well as, more stringent VOC limits for all coating categories than the existing rule. Categories of architectura l coatings have been added in some places, combined in others and removed in others to reflect changes in coating technology. Table 1 shows the differences between the coating limits contained in the Federal regulation (40 CFR 59), current SCAQMD limi ts; current Rule 1113 and the proposed amended Rule 1113.MDAQMD Rule 1113 1113

i: Labeled as Zinc Rich IM Primers1113-12 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 VOC emissions from the use of architectural coating s in California are estimated to be about 118 tons per day (tpd) in 2004. This in cludes 95 tpd from coatings, and about 23 tpd from associated cleanup solvents, thinners, and additives. Total emissions from architectural coatings and ass ociated materials represent almost 10 percent of the VOC emissions from station ary and area sources, and almost five (5) percent of the total VOC emissions statewide. The 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.

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 catego ries. This is due to the physical proximity of the District to SCAQMD. SCAQMD has fo r several years required more stringent VOC limits than those required either Fed erally or elsewhere in California. Because distributors within the SCAQMD supply a maj ority of the retail plaint outlets located within the District, the District suspects that at least a portion of the paint sold within the District, especially in certain high vol ume 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 c overing paint cans when not actively painting.

The proposed amendments primarily impact paint form ulation. Since the limits similar to the proposed VOC limits have been in effect in SCAQ MD for several years and due to the physical proximity of the District to SCAQMD, t he District suspects that paint formulations meeting the proposed VOC limits are al ready available in use throughout the District. In addition, many of the proposed VO C limits reflect a shift in paint formulation from primarily solvent based coatings t o 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 conten t 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 categ ory then it is not required to meet the VOC limits for Flat, NonFlat, or Nonflat-High Gloss Coatings, but is required to meet the VOC limit for the applicable specialty Coating list ed in Table 1 or Table 2 of Rule.

Also, the Averaging Compliance Option, previously a llowing manufacturers to average designated Coatings such that their actual cumulati ve emissions from the averaged Coatings are less than or equal to the cumulative e missions that would have been allowed under those limits over a compliance period not to exceed one year has been removed.MDAQMD Rule 1113 1113

Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 Please see 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 Coatings, Painting Practices, Thinning, Rust Preventative Coating Requ irements, Coatings Not Listed, removal of Averaging Compliance Option and an Early Compliance Provision.

E. SIP HISTORY

1. SIP History

a. SIP in the San Bernardino County Portion of MDAQ MD

On February 20, 1979 the San Bernardino County APCD (SBCAPCD), the predecessor agency to the MDAQMD, adopted Rule 1113. This rule

was effective in what is now called the San Bernard ino County portion of the Mojave Desert Air Basin (MDAB). The MDAB was f ormerly 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. §§60 109 and 60144.

The 1979 version of Rule 1113 was submitted as a re vision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) by CARB on May 23, 1979 a nd approved by USEPA on June 8, 1982 at 47 FR 20513 (Codified at 4 0 CFR 52.220(c)(51)(xii)(B)). The SBCAPCD amended Rule 1 113 on June 4, 1984 and again on November 2, 1992. The 1992 amend ment was1113-16 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 submitted as a SIP revision by CARB for what is now called the San Bernardino County Portion of MDAB on January 11, 19 93. The District is unaware of any action taken by USEPA on the 1993 submission.

On July 1, 1993 the MDAQMD was formed pursuant to s tatute. Pursuant to statute it also retained all the rules and regul ations of the SBCAPCD until such time as the Governing Board of the MDAQM D wished to adopt, amend or rescind such rules. The MDAQMD Gov erning Board, at its very first meeting, reaffirmed all the rules an d regulations of the

SBCAPCD. Since SIP revisions in California are ado pted by USEPA as effective in areas which happen to be defined by bo th air basin designations and the jurisdictional boundaries of l ocal air districts within those air basins, the MDAQMD “inherited” the SBCAPC D SIP which

was in effect for what is now called the San Bernar dino County Portion of MDAB. The MDQMD amended the rule on 2/24/2003 to c onform the rule to the SCM for Architectural Coatings as adopt ed by CARB on June 22, 2000. The 2/24/2003 version of Rule 1113 was s ubmitted 4/01/2003 and was given limited approval/disapproval in the S IP (69 FR 34) on 1/2/2004. The provisions for disapproval have been addressed in the current proposed amendment with the removal of the averaging provision. Additionally, suggestions for rule improvement of t he 2/24/2003 rule were corrected including referenced Rule 442, which was adopted 2/27/2006, and was approved into the SIP on 9/17/2007 (72 FR 5 2791) and all listed typographical errors have been addressed.

b. SIP in the Riverside County (Blythe/Palo Verde B alley) Portion of the MDAQMD

One of the provisions of the legislations which cre ated the MDAQMD allowed areas contiguous to the MDAQMD boundaries a nd within the

same air basin to leave their current air district and become a part of the MDAQMD. On July 1, 1994 the area commonly known as the Palo Verde Valley in Riverside County, including the Cit y of Blythe, left SCAQMD and joined the MDAQMD. Since USEPA adopts S IP revisions in California as effective within the jur isdictional boundaries of local air districts, when the local boundaries chan ge the SIP as approved by USEPA for that area up to the date of the change remains as the SIP in that particular area. Upon annexation of the Blyth e/Palo Verde Valley the MDAQMD acquired the SIP prior to July 1, 1994 that was effective in the Blythe/Palo Verde Valley. Therefore, the SIP histo ry for the Blythe/Palo Verde Valley Portion of the MDAQMD is based upon th e rules adopted and approved for that portion of Riverside County b y SCAQMD.

Rule 1113 for SCAQMD as effective in the Blythe/Pal o Verde Valley was originally adopted on September 2, 1997. USEPA mad e a variety of SIP revision approvals prior to 1985. CARB submitted a version ofMDAQMD Rule 1113 1113

- 17

Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012

SCAQMD Rule 1113 on July 13, 1978. The District pr esumes this submission was approved because it was codified at 40 CFR 52.220(c)(45)(ii)(A). The next submission was made on November 3, 1980 and was approved on September 28, 1981 at 46 F R 47451 (Codified at 40 CFR 52.220(c)(96)(i)(A)). Another submission was made by CARB on May 28, 1981 and approved by USEPA on July 6, 19 82 at 47 FR 29231 (Codified at 40 CFR 52.220(c)(92)(v)(B)(vi)(A )). CARB

submitted another version of Rule 1113 on October 2 7, 1983 which was approved on October 13, 1984 at 49 FR 39057 (Codifi ed at 40 CFR 52.220(c)(148)(vi)(B)). A submission was made on J uly 10, 1984 which was approved on January 24, 1985 at 54 FR 3339 (Cod ified at 40 CFR 52.220(c)(155)(iv)(A)).

SCAQMD promulgated two (2) amendments to Rule 1113 effective in the Blythe/Palo Verde Valley in 1985. One of these ame ndments was submitted by CARB on November 12, 1985. This amend ments was disapproved by USEPA on February 2, 1989 at 54 FR 5 236 (Codified at 40 CFR 52.229(b)(2)(iii)) and the prior SIP approve d version submitted on July 10, 1984 was retained. After this disappro val CARB made several submissions of amended SCAQMD rules (March 23, 1988 ; April 5, 1991, and May 13, 1991) prior to the Blythe/Palo Verde Va lley joining the MDAQMD in July of 1994. To the knowledge of the Di strict USEPA did not take any actions on these submissions prior to July 1, 1994. The MDQMD amended the rule on 2/24/2003 to conform the rule to the SCM for Architectural Coatings as adopted by CARB on Ju ne 22, 2000. The

2/24/2003 version of Rule 1113 was submitted 4/01/2 003 and was given limited approval/disapproval in the SIP (69 FR 34) on 1/2/2004. The provisions for disapproval have been addressed in t he current proposed amendment with the removal of the averaging provisi on. Additionally, suggestions for rule improvement of the 2/24/2003 r ule were corrected including referenced Rule 442, which was adopted 2/ 27/2006, and was approved into the SIP on 9/17/2007 (72 FR 52791) an d all listed typographical errors have been addressed.

2. SIP Analysis

The District will request CARB to submit the propos ed amendments to Rule 1113 to replace the SIP versions in effect in the S an Bernardino County portion of the MDAB and the Blythe/Palo Verde Valley portio n of Riverside County. This submission is necessary because the adoption o f the amended SCM for Architectural Coatings and its subsequent adoption and enforcement by oth er 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 previously existing SIP rule for t his category the District will request that it be superseded. In order to replace existing SIP rules the District is1113-18 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 required to show that the proposed amendments are n ot less stringent than the provisions currently in the SIP. The proposed amen dment of Rule 1113 is more stringent than the provisions currently in the SIP because rule applicability is expanded in accordance with the SCM; definitions ar e updated to make the rule more comprehensive, reflect the current applicabili ty of the rule, and provide additional clarity; VOC limits for various categori es of coatings and solvent coating operations have been modified to be more st ringent in accordance with the SCM; the averaging compliance option has been d eleted; labeling requirements have been added; the monitoring and r ecordkeeping, and test method sections have been clarified and strengthene d; and a severability provision

has been added.MDAQMD Rule 1113 A

(II) AVERAGING PROGRAM (P ROGRAM)

At least six months prior to t he start of the compliance period, manufacturers shall submit an Averaging Program to CARB. Averaging may not be im plemented until the Program is approved in writing by CARB.

Within 45 days of submittal of a complete Program, CA RB shall either approve or disapprove the Program. The Program applicant and CARB may agree t o an extension of time for CARB to take action on the Program.

(III) GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

The Program shall include all necessary information f or CARB to make a determination as to

wheth er the manufacturer may comply with the averaging req uirements over the specified compliance period in an enforceable manner. Such in formation shall include, but is not limited to, the following:

(A) An identification of the contact persons, telephone n u mbers, and name of the manufacturer who is submitting the Program.MDAQMD Rule 1113 1113-A3

Architectural Coatings d5, 02/27/2012 (B) An identification of each C coating that has been selected by the manufacturer fo r inclusion in this program that exceeds the applicable VOC limit in Table 1, its VOC

C content specified in units of both VOC actual and VOC regulatory, an d the designation

of the C coating category.

(C) A detailed demonstration showing that the projected a ctual emissions will not exceed the allowable emissions for a single compliance period that the Program will be in effect. In addition, the demonstration shall include VOC C content information for each C coating that is below the compliance limit in Table 1. The demonstration shall use the equation specified in subsection A.1 of this Appendix for projec tin g the actual emissions and allowable emissions during each compliance period. The demonstration shall also

include all VOC C content levels and projected volume sold within the St ate for each

C coating listed in the Program during each compliance period. T he requested data can be

summarized in a matrix form.

(D) A specification of the compliance period(s) and appli cable reporting dates. The length of the compliance period shall not be more than one yea r or less than six months.

(E) An identification and description of all records to be made available to CAR B upon request, if different than those identified under subse ction (III)(F).

(F) An identification and description of specific records to be used in calculating emissions for the Program and subsequen t reporting, and a detailed explanation as to how th ose records will be used by the manufacturer to verify comp liance with the averaging requirements.

(G) A statement, signed by a responsible party for the manuf acturer, that all information

submitted is t rue and correct, and that records will be made availa ble to CARB upon

request.

(IV) REPORTING REQUIREMEN TS

(A) For every single compliance period, the manufacturer shall submit a mid

- term report listing all C coatings subject to averaging during the first half of the compliance period, detailed analysis of the actual and allowable emissions at the end of the mid

- term, and an explanation as to how the manufacturer intends to achi eve compliance by the end of the compliance period. The report shall be signed by the responsible party for the manufacturer, attesting that all information submitted is true and correct. The mid

- term report shall be submitted within 45 days after the mid way date of the compliance period. A manufacturer may request, in writing, an extension of up to 15 days for submittal of the

mid

- term report.

(B) Within 60 days after the end of the compliance period or upon termination of the Program, whichever is sooner, the manufacturer shall sub mit to CARB a report listing all

C coatings subje ct to averaging during the compliance period, provi ding a detailed

demonstration of the balance between the actual and allowable emissions for the compliance period, any identification and descriptio n of specific records used by the manufacturer to verify compliance with the averaging requirement, and any o ther information requested by CARB to determine whether t he manufacturer complied with the averaging requirements over the specified compli ance period. The report shall be1113-A4 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Architectural Coatings d5, 02/27/2012 signed by the responsible party for the manufacturer, attesting that all information submitted is true and correct, and that records will b e made available to CARB upon request. A manufacturer may request, in writing, an ex tension of up to 30 days for submittal of the final report.

( V) RENEWAL OF A PROGRAM

A Program automatically expires at the end of the co mpliance period. The manufacturer may request a renewal of the Program by submitting a renew al request that shall include an updated Program, meeting all applicable Program requi rements. The renewal request will be considered conditionally approved until CARB makes a final decisi on to deny or approve the renewal request

based on a determination of whether the manufacturer is likely to comply with the averaging requirements. CARB shall base such determination on all available inform ation, including but not limited to, the mid

- term and the final reports of the preceding complian ce period. The Executive Officer shall make a decision to deny or app rove a renewal request no later tha n 45 days from the date of the final report submittal, unle ss the manufacturer and CARB agree to an

extension of time for CARB to take action on the ren ewal request.

(VI) MODIFICATION OF A PR OGRAM

A manufacturer may request a modification of the Pro gram at any time prior to the end of the compliance period. CARB shall take action to approv e or disapprove the modification request no longer than 45 days from the date of its submittal. N o modification of the compliance period shall be allowed. A Program n eed not be modified to specify additional C coatings to be averaged that are below the applicable VOC limits.

(VII) TERMINATION OF A PRO GRAM

(A) A manufacturer may terminate its Program at any time by filing a written notification to CARB. The filing dat e shall be considered the effective date of the termi nation, and all other provisions of this rule including the VOC limits shall immediately thereafter apply. The manufacturer shall also submit a final report 60 d ays after the termination date. Any

exce edance of the actual emissions over the allowable emissi ons over the period that the Program was in effect shall constitute a separate viola tion for each day of the entire compliance period.

(B) CARB may terminate a Program if any of the following circums tances occur:

(1) The manufacturer violates the requirements of the appr oved Program, and at the end of the compliance period, the actual emissions exc eed the allowable

emissions.

(2) The manufacturer demonstrates a recurring pattern of v iolations and ha s consistently failed to take the necessary steps to corre ct those violations.MDAQMD Rule 1113 1113-A5

Architectural Coatings d5, 02/27/2012 (VIII) CHANGE IN VOC LIMITS

If the VOC limits of a C coating listed in the Program are amended such that it s 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 C coating until the end of the compliance period immedi ately following the date of adoption.

(IX) LABELING

Each container of any C coating that is included in averaging program, and that exceeds the applicable VOC limit in Table 1 shall display the fol lowing statement: "This product is subject to

A architectural C coatings averaging provisions in California.” A symbol specified by CARB may

be used as a substitute.

(X) VIOLATIONS

The exceedance of the allowable emissions for any complia nce period shall constitute a separate violation for each day of the compliance period. H owever, any violation of the requirements of the Averaging Provision of this rule, which the viola tor can demons trate, to CARB, did not cause

or allow the emission of an air contaminant and was not the result of negligent or knowing activity may be considered a minor violation.

(XI) SUNSET OF AVERAGING PROVISION

The averaging provision set forth in Appendix A shal l cease to be effective on January 1, 2005, after which averaging will no longer be allowed.

Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 District response to Comment Letter 1

Comment letter 1 was received prior to public comme nt period.

1. “Applicability: Except as provided in subsectio n (A)(1)(3)...”has been modified to read subsection (A)(3). 2. All definitions listed have been modified, updat ed, corrected or deleted as suggested. 3. Section (C)(1)(a) Requirements has been updated to replace work “sale” with word “use” and (C)(6)(a)-(b) have been correctly numbered. 4. Section (D)(1)(d), effective date for labeling r equirements for all clear topcoat Faux Finishing Coatings changed from January 1, 2010 to January 1, 2013, which is set to approximately one year from date of adoption. Addi tionally, “Coating” was changed to “coatings” for correct plural tense. 5. Wording in Section (D)(1)(e)(i), labeling requir ements for Industrial Maintenance Coatings, was removed that was not present in other labeling requirements. “Not for

Residential use” or “Not intended for Residential u se” was not stricken as suggested to be

consistent with other districts. 6. Past effective date of May 24, 2003 in Section ( D)(1)(f) and (D)(1)(j) was removed. However, past effective date was not replaced with effective one year from date of adoption as was suggested. Rather effective date w as removed altogether and labeling requirements for (D)(1)(f) and (D)(1)(j) now read, “The labels of all.....”. 7. Sections (D)(1)(k)(x) and (D)(1)(l)(x) corrected to (D)(1)(k)(i) and (D)(1)(l)(i). 8. Reporting Requirements of TBAc as exempt as a VO C was changed from referencing only Industrial Maintenance Coatings to “when deter mining VOC content of a coating and compliance with emission limitations”. 9. Section (G)(1)(ii) was reduced to only consider Low Solids Coatings and not Low Solids Coatings Stains and low solids wood preservatives. 10. Section (G)(2)(c) was updated to reference BAAQ MD Method 41 and 43; additionally these methods were included in Section (G)(5). 11. Section (G)(5) test methods included a number o f updates: “pigment” was substituted for “metallic”, Basement Specialty Coatings and Metall ic Pigmented Coating test methods were found to be redundant and deleted, Gonioappare nt test method was deleted as the definition was deleted (see comment 2), corrections were made to reference correct subsections, correction was made to reference corre ct method revision date, correction made to reference correct ASTM number, and miscella neous text removed. 12. Driveway Sealers category was added to Table 1 with a VOC content limit of 50 g/l. 13. Indication that Flow Coatings has been combined with other categories in Table 1 is no longer needed as subsequent comments lead to Table 2 being created, Table 2 contains all categories that are deleted or combined as of Janua ry 1, 2013. 14. Reactive Penetrating Sealers category was added to Table 1 with a VOC content limit of 350 g/l. 15. Effective date of January 1, 2013 (approximatel y one year from date of adoption) has

been set for new VOC limits.C-10 MDAQMD Rule 1113 Final Staff Report, 09/21/2012 1MDAQMD Rule 1113 C-11

1. To provide a “transition mechanism” as requested , Table 2 has been added. Table 2 contains all categories which have been eliminated or combined with other categories. The categories in Table 2 can be sold (for up to th ree years) and/or used under the rule’s “sell-through” provision. 2. Sell-Though provisions in Section (C)(5)(a) and Section (C)(5)(b) have been combined such that “so long as the Coating complied with the standards in effect at the time the Coating was manufactured” and “this subsection does not apply to any Coatings that does not display the date or date-code required by subse ction (D)(1)(a)” pertains to both. 3. Section (D)(g)(ii) has been added and includes t he definition of excessively chalky surfaces and, “Until January 1, 2013, the labels of all Specialty Primers, Sealers, and Undercoaters may display ‘For excessively chalky su bstrates’ instead of, or in conjunction with, one or more of the descriptions l isted in Section (D)(1)(g)(i) above”. 4.
