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 in this
					 subchapter, with definitions in ch. NR 460 taking precedence 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 subchapter. In this
					 subchapter:
(1) "Additive" means a
				  material that is added to a coating after purchase from a supplier, such as
				  catalysts, activators and accelerators.
(2) "Add-on control" means an air pollution
				  control device, such as a thermal oxidizer or carbon adsorber, that reduces
				  pollution in an air stream by destruction or removal before discharge to the
				  atmosphere.
(3) "Adhesive" or
				  "adhesive coating" means any chemical substance that is applied for the purpose
				  of bonding 2 surfaces together. Products used on humans and animals, adhesive
				  tape, contact paper or any other product with an adhesive incorporated onto or
				  in an inert substrate are not considered adhesives under this
				  subchapter.
(4) "Assembled on-road
				  vehicle coating" means any coating operation in which coating is applied to the
				  surface of some component or surface of a fully assembled motor vehicle or
				  trailer intended for on-road use, including components or surfaces on
				  automobiles and light-duty trucks that have been repaired after a collision or
				  otherwise repainted, fleet delivery trucks, and motor homes and other
				  recreational vehicles, including camping trailers and fifth wheels. Assembled
				  on-road vehicle coating includes the concurrent coating of parts of the
				  assembled on-road vehicle that are painted off-vehicle to protect systems,
				  equipment, or to allow full coverage. Assembled on-road vehicle coating does
				  not include surface coating operations that meet the applicability criteria of
				  the automobiles and light-duty trucks NESHAP. Assembled on-road vehicle coating
				  also does not include the use of adhesives, sealants and caulks used in
				  assembling on-road vehicles.
(5)
				  "Automotive lamp coating" means any coating operation in which coating is
				  applied to the surface of some component of the body of an exterior automotive
				  lamp, including the application of reflective argent coatings and clear
				  topcoats. Exterior automotive lamps include head lamps, tail lamps, turn
				  signals, brake lights and side marker lights. Automotive lamp coating does not
				  include any coating operation performed on an assembled on-road
				  vehicle.
(6) "Capture device" means
				  a hood, enclosure, room, floor sweep or other means of containing or collecting
				  emissions and directing those emissions into an add-on air pollution control
				  device.
(7) "Capture efficiency" or
				  "capture system efficiency" means the portion, expressed as a percentage, of
				  the pollutants from an emission source that is delivered to an add-on control
				  device.
(8) "Capture system" means
				  one or more capture devices intended to collect emissions generated by a
				  coating operation in the use of coatings or cleaning materials, both at the
				  point of application and at subsequent points where emissions from the coatings
				  and cleaning materials occur, such as flash-off, drying or curing. As used in
				  this subchapter, multiple capture devices that collect emissions generated by a
				  coating operation are considered a single capture system.
(9) "Cleaning material" means a solvent used
				  to remove contaminants and other materials, such as dirt, grease, oil and dried
				  or wet coating, from a substrate before or after coating application or from
				  equipment associated with a coating operation, such as spray booths, spray
				  guns, racks, tanks and hangers. Thus, it includes any cleaning material used on
				  substrates or equipment or both.
(10) "Coating" means a material applied to a
				  substrate for decorative, protective or functional purposes. These materials
				  include paints, sealants, liquid plastic coatings, caulks, inks, adhesives and
				  masking agents. Decorative, protective or functional materials that consist
				  only of protective oils for metal, acids, bases, or any combination of these
				  substances, or paper film or plastic film which may be pre-coated with an
				  adhesive by the film manufacturer, are not considered coatings for the purposes
				  of this subchapter. A liquid plastic coating means a coating made from fine
				  particle-size polyvinyl chloride in solution, also referred to as a
				  plastisol.
(11) "Coating operation"
				  means equipment used to apply cleaning materials to a substrate to prepare it
				  for coating application or to remove dried coating; to apply coating to a
				  substrate and to dry or cure the coating after application; or to clean coating
				  operation equipment. A single coating operation may include any combination of
				  these types of equipment, but always includes at least the point at which a
				  given quantity of coating or cleaning material is applied to a given part and
				  all subsequent points in the affected source where organic HAP are emitted from
				  the specific quantity of coating or cleaning material on the specific part.
				  There may be multiple coating operations in an affected source. Coating
				  application with hand-held, non-refillable aerosol containers, touch-up markers
				  or marking pens is not a coating operation for the purposes of this
				  subchapter.
(12) "Coatings solids"
				  means the nonvolatile portion of the coating that makes up the dry
				  film.
(13) "Continuous parameter
				  monitoring system" or "CPMS" means the total equipment that may be required to
				  meet the data acquisition and availability requirements of this subchapter,
				  used to sample, condition, if applicable, analyze, and provide a record of
				  coating operation, or capture system, or add-on control device
				  parameters.
(14) "Controlled
				  coating operation" means a coating operation from which some or all of the
				  organic HAP emissions are routed through an emission capture system and add-on
				  control device.
(15) "Deviation"
				  means any instance in which an affected source subject to this subchapter, or
				  an owner or operator of an affected source, does any of the following:
(a) Fails to meet any requirement or
				  obligation established by this subchapter, including any emission limit or
				  operating limit or work practice standard.
(b) Fails to meet any term or condition that
				  is adopted to implement an applicable requirement in this subchapter and that
				  is included in the operating permit for any affected source required to obtain
				  an operating permit.
(c) Fails to
				  meet any emission limit, or operating limit, or work practice standard in this
				  subchapter during startup, shutdown or malfunction, regardless of whether or
				  not the failure is permitted by this subchapter.
