(A) Applicability.

This rule shall apply to any facility that meets both of the following criteria:

(1) The facility is located in Ashtabula, Butler, Clermont, Cuyahoga, Geauga, Hamilton, Lake, Lorain, Medina, Portage, Summit, or Warren county.

(2) The facility has total actual VOC emissions from all flat wood paneling coating lines that are equal to or greater than 15.0 pounds of VOC emissions per day, before the application of capture and control devices.

(B) Definitions.

The definitions applicable to this rule are contained in paragraphs (A), (B), and (FF) of rule 3745-21-01 of the Administrative Code.

(C) VOC emission control requirements.

(1) VOC content limitations.

The owner or operator of a facility that is subject to this rule shall not apply any flat wood paneling coating that exceeds the VOC content limitations specified in the following table:

CategoriesVOC Limitations (pounds per gallon, excluding water and exempt solvents)VOC Limitations (pounds per gallon of solids)
Printed interior panels made of hardwood, plywood, or thin particleboard.2.12.9
Natural finish hardwood plywood panels.2.12.9
Class 2 finishes on hardboard panels.2.12.9
Tileboard.2.12.9
Exterior siding.2.12.9

(2) As an alternative to the VOC emission limitations specified in the table of this rule, the owner or operator of a facility may choose to vent all VOC emissions to a control device with a minimum overall control efficiency of ninety per cent, by weight.

(3) Except as otherwise provided by this rule, compliance with the limitations specified in paragraph (C)(1) of this rule is based upon a weighted average by volume of all coating materials employed in the coating line in any one day. The VOC contents and densities of the coating materials subject to paragraph (C)(1) of this rule shall be determined in accordance with paragraph (B) of rule 3745-21-10 of the Administrative Code. The VOC emission rate, capture efficiency and control efficiency for coating lines subject to paragraph (C) of this rule shall be determined in accordance with paragraph (C) of rule 3745-21-10 of the Administrative Code. The averaging of VOC emissions over two or more coating lines in order to demonstrate compliance with an applicable emission limitation (i.e., cross-line averaging) is prohibited except as otherwise provided in this rule.

(D) Application equipment.

The owner or operator of a facility shall not apply coatings to wood products subject to the provisions of this rule unless the coating is applied with properly operating equipment, in accordance with proper operating procedures, and by the use of one of the following methods:
