West Virginia Code of State Rules › Agency 45 - Air Quality › Title 45 - LEGISLATIVE RULE DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AIR QUALITY › Series 45-21 - Regulation to Prevent and Control Air Pollution from the Emission of Volatile Organic Compounds › Section 45-21-4 - Compliance Certification, Recordkeeping, and Reporting Procedures for Coating Sources

Current through Register Vol. XLI, No. 28, July 12, 2024
4.1. To establish
				the records required under this section 4., the volatile organic compound (VOC)
				content of each coating, as applied, and the efficiency of each capture system
				and control device shall be determined by the applicable test methods and
				procedures specified in subsections 42. and 44.
4.2. Requirements for coating sources exempt
				from emission limitations. -- Any owner or operator of a coating line or
				operation that is exempt from the emission limitations of sections 11. through
				19. because combined VOC emissions from all coating lines and operations at the
				facility are below the applicability threshold specified in the individual
				sections of this regulation, before the application of capture systems and
				control devices, shall comply with the following for each of sections 11.
				through 19. from which the owner or operator claims an exemption:
4.2.1. Certification. -- The owner or
				operator of a facility referenced in subsection 4.2. shall certify to the
				Secretary that the facility is exempt by providing the following:
4.2.1.a. Name and location of the
				facility;
4.2.1.b. Address and
				telephone number of the person responsible for the facility;
4.2.1.c. A declaration that the facility is
				exempt from the emission limitations of sections 11. through 19. because
				combined VOC emissions from all coating lines and operations at the facility
				are below the applicability threshold before the application of capture systems
				and control devices; and
4.2.1.d.
				Calculations of the daily-weighted average that demonstrate that the combined
				VOC emissions from all coating lines and operations at the facility for a day
				representative of current maximum production levels are 6.8 kilograms (kg) (15
				pounds [lb]) or less before the application of capture systems and control
				devices. The following equation shall be used to calculate total VOC emissions
				for that day:

Where:
T = Total VOC emissions from coating lines and operations at
				  the facility before the application of capture systems and control devices in
				  units of kg/day (lb/day);
n = Number of different coatings applied on each coating line
				  or each operation at the facility;
i = Subscript denoting an individual coating;
Ai = Mass of VOC per volume of coating
				  (i) (minus water and exempt compounds), as applied, used at the facility in
				  units of kilograms VOC per liter (kg VOC/L) (pounds VOC per gallon [lb
				  VOC/gal]); and
Bi = Volume of coating (i) (minus
				  water and exempt compounds), as applied, used at the facility in units of
				  liters per day (L/day) (gallons per day [gal/day]). The instrument or method by
				  which the owner or operator accurately measured or calculated the volume of
				  each coating, as applied, used shall be described in the certification to the
				  Secretary.
