Illinois Administrative Code › Title 35 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › Part 218 - ORGANIC MATERIAL EMISSION STANDARDS AND LIMITATIONS FOR THE CHICAGO AREA › Subpart F - COATING OPERATIONS › Section 218.204 - Emission Limitations

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
Except as provided in Sections 218.205, 218.207, 218.208,
				  218.212, 218.215 and 218.216 of this Subpart, no owner or operator of a coating
				  line shall apply at any time any coating in which the VOM content exceeds the
				  following emission limitations for the specified coating. Except as otherwise
				  provided in subsections (a), (c), (g), (h), (j), (l), (n), (p), and (q) of this
				  Section, compliance with the emission limitations marked with an asterisk in
				  this Section is required on and after March 15, 1996, and compliance with
				  emission limitations not marked with an asterisk is required until March 15,
				  1996. The following emission limitations are expressed in units of VOM per
				  volume of coating (minus water and any compounds which are specifically
				  exempted from the definition of VOM) as applied at each coating applicator,
				  except where noted. Compounds which are specifically exempted from the
				  definition of VOM should be treated as water for the purpose of calculating the
				  "less water" part of the coating composition. Compliance with this Subpart must
				  be demonstrated through the applicable coating analysis test methods and
				  procedures specified in Section 218.105(a) of this Part and the recordkeeping
				  and reporting requirements specified in Section 218.211(c) of this Subpart
				  except where noted. (Note: The equation presented in Section 218.206 of this
				  Part shall be used to calculate emission limitations for determining compliance
				  by add-on controls, credits for transfer efficiency, emissions trades and
				  cross-line averaging.) The emission limitations are as follows:

1.81
(15.1)
1.81*
(15.1)*
BOARD NOTE: The primer surface coat limitation is in units of
				  kg (lbs) of VOM per l (gal) of coating solids deposited. Compliance with the
				  limitation shall be based on the daily-weighted average from an entire primer
				  surfacer operation. Compliance shall be demonstrated in accordance with the
				  topcoat protocol referenced in Section 218.105(b)(1)(A) and the recordkeeping
				  and reporting requirements specified in Section 218.211(f). Testing to
				  demonstrate compliance shall be performed in accordance with the topcoat
				  protocol and a detailed testing proposal approved by the Agency and USEPA
				  specifying the method of demonstrating compliance with the protocol. Section
				  218.205 does not apply to the primer surfacer limitation.
C)

1.81
(15.1)
1.81*
(15.1)*
BOARD NOTE: The topcoat limitation is in units of kg (lbs) of
				  VOM per l (gal) of coating solids deposited. Compliance with the limitation
				  shall be based on the daily-weighted average from an entire topcoat operation.
				  Compliance shall be demonstrated in accordance with the topcoat protocol
				  referenced in Section 218.105(b)(1)(A) of this Part and the recordkeeping and
				  reporting requirements specified in Section 218.211(f). Testing to demonstrate
				  compliance shall be performed in accordance with the topcoat protocol and a
				  detailed testing proposal approved by the Agency and USEPA specifying the
				  method of demonstrating compliance with the protocol. Section 218.205 of this
				  Part does not apply to the topcoat limitation.

2) On and after
				May 1, 2012, subject automobile and light-duty truck coating lines shall comply
				with the following limitations. These limitations shall not apply to materials
				supplied in containers with a net volume of 0.47 liters (16 oz) or less, or a
				net weight of 0.45 kg (1 lb) or less:
A)
				Electrodeposition primer (EDP) operations. For purposes of this subsection
				(a)(2)(A), "electrodeposition" means a water-borne dip coating process in which
				opposite electrical charges are applied to the substrate and the coating. The
				coating is attracted to the substrate due to the electrochemical potential
				difference that is created.

							 recordkeeping and reporting requirements specified in Section 218.211(f).
							 Testing to demonstrate compliance shall be performed in accordance with the

							 occurrence-weighted average basis, calculated in accordance with the equation
							 below, in which clear coatings shall have a weighting factor of 2 and all other
							 coatings shall have a weighting factor of 1. For purposes of this subsection
							 (a)(2)(E)(ii), an "occurrence" is the application of the combination of
							 coatings that constitute a final repair coat for a single automobile or
							 light-duty truck. Section 218.205 does not apply to the final repair coat
							 limitation.
