Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 24, July 15, 2024
A. For the purpose
					 of these regulations and subsequent amendments or any orders issued by the
					 board, the words or terms shall have the meanings given them in subsection C of
					 this section.
B. As used in this
					 article, all terms not defined here shall have the meanings given them in 9VAC5
					 Chapter 10 (9VAC5-10-10 et seq.), unless
					 otherwise required by context.
C.
					 Terms defined.
"Application area" means the area where the coating is
						applied by spraying, dipping or flow coating techniques.
"Carbon adsorption system" means a device containing
						activated carbon as the adsorbent material, an inlet and outlet for exhaust
						gases, and a system to regenerate the saturated adsorbent. The carbon
						adsorption system must provide for the proper disposal or reuse of all volatile
						organic compounds in the adsorbate.
"Clear coating" means a coating which lacks color and
						opacity or is transparent and uses the undercoat as a reflectant base or
						undertone color.
"Coating application system" means any operation or
						system where a surface coating of one type or function is applied, dried or
						cured and which is subject to the same emission standard. May include any
						equipment which applies, conveys, dries or cures a surface coating, including,
						but not limited to, spray booths, flow coaters, flashoff areas, air dryers,
						drying areas and ovens. It is not necessary for a coating application system to
						have an oven, flashoff area or drying area to be included in this
						definition.
"Coating applicator" means an apparatus used to apply a
						surface coating.
"Extreme environmental conditions" means exposure to any
						one of the following: the weather all of the time, temperatures consistently
						above 95°C, detergents, scouring, solvents, corrosive atmospheres or
						similar environmental conditions.
"Extreme performance coatings" means coatings which are
						required to be used by design specification on products designed for harsh
						exposure or extreme environmental conditions.
"Flashoff area" means the space between the application
						area and the oven.
"Miscellaneous metal parts and products" means any part
						or product from the following industrial categories:
a. Large farm machinery (harvesting,
					 fertilizing and planting machines, tractors, combines, etc.);
b. Small farm machinery (lawn and garden
					 tractors, lawn mowers, rototillers, etc.);
c. Small appliances (fans, mixers, blenders,
					 crock pots, dehumidifiers, vacuum cleaners, etc.);
d. Commercial machinery (computers and
					 auxiliary equipment, typewriters, calculators, vending machines,
					 etc.);
e. Industrial machinery
					 (pumps, compressors, conveyor components, fans, blowers, transformers,
					 etc.);
f. Fabricated metal products
					 (i.e., metal covered doors, frames); and
g. Any other industrial category which coats
					 metal parts or products under the Standard Industrial Classification Code of
					 Major Group 33 (primary metal industries), Major Group 34 (fabricated metal
					 products), Major Group 35 (nonelectrical machinery), Major Group 36 (electrical
					 machinery), Major Group 37 (transportation equipment), Major Group 38
					 (miscellaneous instruments), Major Group 39 (miscellaneous manufacturing
					 industries), Major Group 40 (railroad transportation), and Major Group 41
					 (transit passenger transportation). "Major groups" (i.e., which have the same
					 two-digit code) shall be described in the Standard Industrial Classification
					 Manual (see
					 9VAC5-20-21 ).
"Oven" means a chamber within which heat is used to bake,
						cure, polymerize or dry a surface coating or any combination of
						those.
