Illinois Administrative Code › Title 35 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › Part 218 - ORGANIC MATERIAL EMISSION STANDARDS AND LIMITATIONS FOR THE CHICAGO AREA › Subpart F - COATING OPERATIONS › Section 218.208 - Exemptions from Emission Limitations

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) Exemptions for all coating categories
				except wood furniture coating. The limitations of this Subpart shall not apply
				to coating lines within a source, that otherwise would be subject to the same
				subsection of Section
				218.204
				(because they belong to the same coating category, e.g., can coating), provided
				that combined actual emissions of VOM from all lines at the source subject to
				that subsection never exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of
				capture systems and control devices. (For example, can coating lines within a
				source would not be subject to the limitations of Section
				218.204(b)
				of this Subpart if the combined actual emissions of VOM from the can coating
				lines never exceed 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of capture
				systems and control devices.) Prior to May 1, 2012, volatile organic material
				emissions from heavy off-highway vehicle products coating lines must be
				combined with VOM emissions from miscellaneous metal parts and products coating
				lines to determine applicability. On and after May 1, 2012, VOM emissions from
				heavy off-highway vehicle products coating lines shall be combined with VOM
				emissions from miscellaneous metal parts and products coating lines and plastic
				parts and products coating lines to determine applicability. Any owner or
				operator of a coating source shall comply with 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(a)
				of this Subpart if total VOM emissions from the subject coating lines are
				always less than or equal to 6.8 kg/day (15 lbs/day) before the application of
				capture systems and control devices and, therefore, are not subject to the
				limitations of Section
				218.204 of
				this Subpart. Once a category of coating lines at a source is subject to the
				limitations in Section
				218.204 of
				this Subpart the coating lines are always subject to the limitations in Section
				218.204 of
				this Subpart.
b) Applicability for
				wood furniture coating
1) The limitations of
				this Subpart shall apply to a source's wood furniture coating lines if the
				source contains process emission units, not regulated by Subparts B, E, F
				(excluding Section
				218.204(l)
				of this Subpart), H (excluding Section
				218.405
				of this Part), Q, R, S, T (excluding Section
				218.486 of
				this Part), V, X, Y, or BB of this Part, which as a group both:
A) Have a maximum theoretical emissions of 91
				Mg (100 tons) or more per calendar year of VOM if no air pollution control
				equipment were used; and
B) Are not
				limited to less than 91 Mg (100 tons) of VOM per calendar year if no air
				pollution control equipment were used, through production or capacity
				limitations contained in a federally enforceable permit or SIP
				revision.
