			  used to store volatile organic liquids (VOL) for which construction,
			  reconstruction or modification is commenced after July 23, 1984.
(b) This section does not apply to storage
			  vessels with a capacity greater than or equal to 151 m3 storing a liquid with a
			  maximum true vapor pressure less than 3.5 kilopascals (kPa) or with a capacity
			  greater than or equal to 75 m3 but less than 151 m3 storing a liquid with a
			  maximum true vapor pressure less than 15.0 kPa.
(d) This section does not apply to the
			  following:
1. Vessels at coke oven by-product
			  plants.
2. Pressure vessels
			  designed to operate in excess of 204.9 kPa and without emissions to the
			  atmosphere.
3. Vessels permanently
			  attached to mobile vehicles such as trucks, railcars, barges or
			  ships.
4. Vessels with a design
			  capacity less than or equal to 1,589.874 m3 used for petroleum or condensate
			  stored, processed, or treated prior to custody transfer.
5. Vessels located at bulk gasoline
			  plants.

			  kPa.
b. A design capacity greater
			  than 75 m3 but less than 151 m3 and containing a VOL that, as stored, has a
			  maximum true vapor pressure equal to greater than 27.6 kPa.
2. Owners or operators who choose
			  to comply with 40 CFR part 65, subpart C, as in effect on December 14, 2000,
