Sec. 12.
(a) This section applies to any owner or operator of a coating source that: (1) uses control devices to comply with volatile organic compounds (VOC) emission limits; and(2) meets the applicability criteria that follow:(B) 326 IAC 8-5-5(a)(2); or (C) 326 IAC 8-5-5(a)(3)(A).(b) By May 1, 1997, or upon startup of a new coating facility, or upon changing the method of compliance for an existing coating facility, the owner or operator of the coating facility shall comply with the following requirements: (1) Control system operation, maintenance, and testing requirements shall be as follows: (A) The control system shall be operated and maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations but may be modified based on the results of the initial or subsequent compliance test or upon the written request of the department.(B) A copy of the operating and maintenance procedures shall be maintained in a convenient location at the source property and as close to the control system as possible for reference by plant personnel and department inspectors.(C) The control system shall be tested according to the following schedule and in the following situations:(i) An initial compliance test shall be conducted. Compliance tests shall be conducted no later than every thirty (30) months after the date of the initial test.(ii) A compliance test shall be conducted whenever the owner or operator chooses to operate a control system under conditions different from those that were in place at the time of the previous test.(iii) A compliance test shall be performed within ninety (90) days of: (AA) startup of a new coating facility;(BB) changing the method of compliance for an existing coating facility from compliant coatings or daily-weighted averaging to control devices; or(CC) receipt of a written request from the department or the U.S. EPA.(D) All compliance tests shall be conducted according to a protocol approved by the department at least thirty (30) days before the test. The protocol shall contain, at a minimum, the following information: (ii) Operating and control system parameters.(iii) Type of VOC containing process material being used.(iv) The process and control system parameters that will be monitored during the test.(2) Monitoring equipment requirements shall be as follows: (A) If a thermal incinerator is used for VOC reduction, a temperature monitoring device capable of continuously recording the temperature of the gas stream in the combustion zone of the incinerator shall be used. The temperature monitoring device shall have an accuracy of one percent (1%) of the temperature being measured in degrees Centigrade, or plus or minus five-tenths degree Centigrade (± 0.5°C), whichever is more accurate.(B) If a catalytic incinerator is used for VOC reduction, a temperature device capable of continuously recording the temperature in the gas stream immediately before and after the catalyst bed of the incinerator shall be used. The temperature monitoring device shall have an accuracy of one percent (1%) of the temperature being measured in degrees Centigrade, or plus or minus five-tenths degree Centigrade (± 0.5°C), whichever is more accurate.(C) If a carbon adsorber is used to remove and recover VOC from the gas stream, a VOC monitoring device capable of continuously recording the concentration level of VOC at the outlet of the carbon bed shall be used. The monitoring device shall be based on a detection principle such as infrared, photoionization, or thermal conductivity.(D) Where a VOC recovery device other than a carbon adsorber is used, the source shall provide to the department information describing the operation of the device and the process parameters that would indicate proper operation and maintenance of the control device. The department may request further information and will specify appropriate monitoring procedures, record keeping, and reporting requirements.(c) On and after May 1, 1997, or on and after startup of a new coating facility, or upon changing the method of compliance for an existing coating facility from the use of compliant coatings or daily-weighted averaging to control devices, the owner or operator of a coating facility identified in subsection (a) shall collect and record each day and maintain all of the following information each day for each coating facility:(1) The name and identification number of each coating used at each coating facility.(2) The mass of VOC per unit volume of coating solids, as applied, the volume solids content, as applied, and the volume, as applied, of each coating expressed in units necessary to determine compliance, used each day at each coating facility.(3) The maximum VOC content (mass of VOC per unit volume of coating solids, as applied) or the daily-weighted average VOC content (mass of VOC per unit volume of coating solids, as applied) of the coatings used each day on each coating facility.(4) The required overall emission reduction efficiency for each day for each coating facility. (5) The actual overall emission reduction efficiency achieved for each day for each coating facility as determined during the compliance test required by subsection (b)(1)(C).(6) Control device monitoring data as follows:(A) For thermal incinerators, the following:(i) Continuous records of the temperature in the gas stream in the combustion zone of the incinerator.(ii) Records of all three (3) hour periods of operation in which the average combustion temperature of the gas stream in the combustion zone was more than fifty degrees Fahrenheit (50°F) (twenty-eight degrees Centigrade (28°C)) below the average combustion temperature that existed during the most recent test that demonstrated that the coating facility was in compliance.(B) For catalytic incinerators, the following:(i) Continuous records of the temperature of the gas stream both upstream and downstream of the catalyst bed of the incinerator.(ii) Records of all three (3) hour periods of operation in which the average temperature measured at the process vent stream immediately before the catalyst bed is more than fifty degrees Fahrenheit (50°F) (twenty-eight degrees Centigrade (28°C)) below the average temperature of the process vent stream that existed during the most recent test that demonstrated that the coating facility was in compliance.(iii) Records of all three (3) hour periods of operation in which the average temperature difference across the catalyst bed is less than eighty percent (80%) of the temperature difference measured during the most recent test that demonstrated that the coating facility was in compliance.(C) For carbon adsorbers, the following: (i) Continuous records of the VOC concentration level or reading in the exhaust stream of the carbon adsorber.(ii) Records of all three (3) hour periods of operation during which either the average VOC concentration or the reading of organic compounds in the exhaust gases is more than twenty percent (20%) greater than the average exhaust gas concentration or reading measured by the organic compound monitoring device during the most recent determination of the recovery efficiency of the carbon adsorber that demonstrated that the coating facility was in compliance.(D) Facilities using VOC recovery devices other than carbon adsorbers shall maintain the monitoring records and meet the reporting requirements specified by the department of subsection (b)(2)(D).(7) A log of operating time for the capture system, control device, monitoring equipment, and the associated coating facility.(8) A maintenance log for the capture system, control device, and monitoring equipment detailing all routine and nonroutine maintenance performed including dates and duration of any outages.(d) On and after May 1, 1997, the owner or operator of a coating facility identified in subsection (a) shall notify the department in either of the following instances: (1) Any record showing noncompliance with the applicable requirements for control devices shall be reported by submitting a copy of the record to the department within thirty (30) days following noncompliance; such record shall also be submitted with the quarterly compliance report. The following information shall accompany each submittal: (A) Name and location of the coating facility.(B) Identification of the control system where the noncompliance occurred and the coating facility it served.(C) Time, date, and duration of the noncompliance.(D) Corrective action taken.(2) At least thirty (30) calendar days before changing the method of compliance from control devices to the use of compliant coatings or daily-weighted averaging, the owner or operator shall comply with all applicable requirements of section 10(b) or 11(b) of this rule, respectively. Upon changing the method of compliance from control devices to the use of compliant coatings or daily-weighted averaging, the owner or operator shall comply with all requirements of section 10 or 11 of this rule, respectively, applicable to the coating facility subject to 326 IAC 8-5-5.Air Pollution Control Board; 326 IAC 8-1-12; filed Apr 22, 1997, 2:00 p.m.: 20 IR 2319
