Section 326 IAC 8-11-10 - Provisions for sources electing to use emissions averagingAuthority: IC 13-14-8; IC 13-17-3-4
Affected: IC 13-12
Sec. 10.
(a) The owner or operator of the wood furniture manufacturing operation electing to comply with the emissions standards in section 3(a)(4) of this rule shall submit to the department for approval a plan addressing the following provisions: (1) Program goals and rationale as follows: (A) Provide a summary of the reasons why the wood furniture manufacturing operation would like to comply with the emission limitation through the procedures established in section 3(a)(4) of this rule.(B) Provide a summary of how averaging can be used to meet the emission limitation.(C) Document that the additional environmental benefit requirement is being met through the use of the equations in section 3(a)(4) of this rule. These equations ensure that the wood furniture manufacturing operation achieves an additional ten percent (10%) reduction in emissions when compared to wood furniture manufacturing operations using a compliant coatings approach to meet the requirements of the rule.(2) Program scope as follows: (A) Include the types of finishing materials that will be included in the wood furniture manufacturing operations' averaging program.(B) Stains, basecoats, washcoats, sealers, and topcoats may be used in the averaging program.(C) Finishing materials that are applied using continuous coaters may only be used in an averaging program if the wood furniture manufacturing operation can determine the amount of finishing material used each day.(3) For program baseline, each finishing material included in the averaging program shall be the lower of the actual or allowable emission rate as of the effective date of this rule.(4) Quantification procedures as follows: (A) Describe how emissions and changes in emissions will be quantified, including methods for quantifying usage of each finishing material. Quantification procedures for VOC content are included in section 7 of this rule.(B) Quantification methods used shall be accurate enough to ensure that the wood furniture manufacturing operations' actual emissions are less than the allowable emissions, as calculated using Equation 1 or 2 in section 3(a)(4) of this rule, on a daily basis.(5) Monitoring, record keeping, and reporting as follows:(A) Provide a summary of the monitoring, record keeping, and reporting procedures that will be used to demonstrate daily compliance with the equations presented in section 3(a)(4) of this rule.(B) Monitoring, record keeping, and reporting procedures shall be structured in such a way that the department and facility owners can determine a wood furniture manufacturing operations' compliance status for any day.(b) Pending approval by the department and the U.S. EPA of the proposed emissions averaging plan, the owner or operator shall continue to comply with the provisions of this rule.Air Pollution Control Board; 326 IAC 8-11-10; filed Dec 5, 1995, 8:30 a.m.: 19 IR 1073
