Current through June 24, 2024
For terms not defined in this section, the definitions
					 contained in chs.
					 NR
					 400 and
					 460 apply to the terms used in
					 this chapter, with definitions in ch. NR 460 taking priority over definitions
					 in ch. NR 400. If this section defines a term which is also defined in ch. NR
					 400 or 460, the definition in this section applies in this chapter.
(1) "Always-controlled work station" means a
				  work station associated with a dryer from which the exhaust is delivered to a
				  control device, with no provision for the dryer exhaust to bypass the control
				  device. Sampling lines for analyzers and relief valves needed for safety
				  purposes are not considered bypass lines.
(2) "Car-seal" means a seal that is placed on
				  a device that is used to change the position of a valve or damper, for example,
				  from open to closed, in a way that the position of the valve or damper cannot
				  be changed without breaking the seal.
(3) "Certified product data sheet" or "CPDS"
				  means documentation furnished by suppliers of inks, coatings, varnishes,
				  adhesives, primers, solvents and other materials or by an outside laboratory
				  that provides the organic HAP content of these materials, by weight, measured
				  using Method 311 in 40 CFR Part 63, Appendix A, incorporated by reference in s.
				  NR
				  484.04, or an equivalent or alternative method, or
				  formulation data as provided for in s.
				  NR
				  466.09(2), and the solids content of
				  these materials, by weight, determined in accordance with s.
				  NR
				  466.09(3).
(4) "Coating operation" means the application
				  of a uniform layer of material across the entire width of a
				  substrate.
(5) "Coating station"
				  means a work station on which a coating operation is conducted.
(6) "Control device efficiency" means the
				  ratio of organic HAP emissions recovered or destroyed by a control device to
				  the total HAP emissions that are introduced into the control device, expressed
				  as a percentage.
(7) "Facility"
				  means all contiguous or adjoining property that is under common ownership or
				  control, including properties that are separated only by a road or other public
				  right-of-way.
(8) "Flexographic
				  press" means an unwind or feed section, a series of individual work stations,
				  one or more of which is a flexographic print station, any dryers, including
				  interstage dryers and overhead tunnel dryers, associated with the work
				  stations, and a rewind, stack or collection station. The work stations may be
				  oriented vertically, horizontally or around the circumference of a single large
				  impression cylinder. Inboard and outboard work stations, including those
				  employing any other technology, such as rotogravure, are included if they are
				  capable of printing or coating on the same substrate.
(9) "Flexographic print station" means a work
				  station on which a flexographic printing operation is conducted. A flexographic
				  print station includes a printing plate which is an image carrier made of
				  rubber or other elastomeric material on which the image, type and art, to be
				  printed is raised above the printing plate.
(10) "HAP applied" means the organic HAP
				  content of all inks, coatings, varnishes, adhesives, primers, solvent and other
				  materials applied to a substrate by a product and packaging rotogravure or
				  wide-web flexographic printing affected source.
(12) "HAP used" means the organic HAP applied
				  by a publication rotogravure printing affected source, including all organic
				  HAP used for cleaning, parts washing, proof presses and all organic HAP emitted
				  during tank loading, ink mixing and storage.
(13) "Intermittently-controllable work
				  station" means a work station associated with a dryer with provisions for the
				  dryer exhaust to be delivered to or diverted from a control device depending on
				  the position of a valve or damper.
(14) "Month" means a calendar month or a
				  prespecified period of 28 days to 35 days.
(15) "Never-controlled work station" means a
				  work station which is not equipped with provisions by which any emissions,
				  including those in the exhaust from any associated dryer, may be delivered to a
				  control device.
(16) "Overall
				  organic HAP control efficiency" means the total efficiency of a control system,
				  determined either by the product of the capture efficiency and the control
				  device efficiency or a liquid-liquid material balance.
(17) "Print station" means a work station on
				  which a printing operation is conducted.
(18) "Printing operation" means the formation
				  of words, designs and pictures on a substrate other than fabric through the
				  application of material to that substrate.
(19) "Product and packaging rotogravure
				  printing" means the production, on a rotogravure press, of any printed
				  substrate not otherwise defined as publication rotogravure printing. This
				  includes, but is not limited to, folding cartons, flexible packaging, labels
				  and wrappers, gift wraps, wall and floor coverings, upholstery, decorative
				  laminates and tissue products.
(20)
				  "Proof press" means any device used only to check the quality of the image
				  formation of rotogravure cylinders or flexographic plates, which prints only
				  non-saleable items.
(21)
				  "Publication rotogravure printing" means the production, on a rotogravure
				  press, of any of the following saleable paper products:
(a) Catalogues, including mail order and
				  premium.
(b) Direct mail
				  advertisements, including circulars, letters, pamphlets, cards, and printed
				  envelopes.
(c) Display
				  advertisements, including general posters, outdoor advertisements, car cards,
				  window posters; counter and floor displays; and point of purchase and other
				  printed display material.
(d)
				  Magazines.
(e) Miscellaneous
				  advertisements, including brochures, pamphlets, catalog sheets, circular
				  folders, announcements, package inserts, book jackets, market circulars,
				  magazine inserts and shopping news.
(f) Newspapers, magazine and comic
				  supplements for newspapers, and preprinted newspaper inserts, including hi-fi
				  and spectacolor rolls and sections.
(g) Periodicals.
(h) Telephone and other directories,
				  including business reference services.
