2010-016-115-EN | Chapter 115 Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) Rule Revisions The proposed rulemaking would revise Chapter 115, Subchapter E, to implement RACT requirements for the following eight CTG emission source categories: Flexible Packaging Printing Materials; Industrial Cleaning Solvents; Large Appliance Coatings; Metal Furniture Coatings; Paper, Film, and Foil Coatings; Auto and Light-Duty Truck Assembly Coatings; Miscellaneous Industrial Adhesives; and Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings. The proposed rulemaking would implement the EPA’s RACT recommendations except for specific recommendations that staff determined were not necessary to implement RACT or would interfere with the current requirements. In addition to establishing more stringent VOC emission limits, the proposed rulemaking would include implementing new work practice standards, requiring additional monitoring and recordkeeping, revising exemption levels. |
