Document Description
Proposed Amended Rule 1106 (PAR 1106) and Proposed Amended Rule 1107 (PAR 1107) have been developed to address the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) proposed limited disapproval of the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for Rules 1106 and 1107 citing a deficiency from referencing ASTM International D7767-11 “Standard Test Method to Measure Volatiles from Radiation Curable Acrylate Monomers, Oligomers and Blends and Thin Coatings Made from Them” (ASTM D7767). To remedy this issue, PAR 1106 and PAR 1107 will remove the references to ASTM D7767. PAR 1106 will also delete two product categories and their corresponding VOC limits, Elastomeric Adhesives and Metallic Heat Resistant Coating, because they are not included in the U.S. EPA 1996 Control Techniques Guidelines. The benefits of the proposed project provide clarifications which will remedy the SIP deficiency and improve the enforceability of both rules. Implementation of the proposed project will not result in emission reductions.
