(1) Reduces VOC emissions from each dryer by at least ninety percent (90%) for a control system first installed before January 1, 2010.
(2) Reduces VOC emissions from each dryer by at least ninety-five percent (95%) for a control system first installed on or after January 1, 2010.
(3) Maintains a maximum VOC outlet concentration of twenty (20) parts per million by volume (ppmv), as hexane (C6H14) on a dry basis.
(b) The owner or operator of a heatset web offset lithographic printing press shall meet one (1) of the following requirements for the fountain solution used on that press:
(1) Maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below five percent (5%), by weight, and use no alcohol in the fountain solution.
(2) If the fountain solution contains alcohol, maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below one and six-tenths percent (1.6%), by weight.
(3) If the fountain solution contains alcohol, maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below three percent (3%), by weight, and refrigerate the fountain solution to below sixty (60) degrees Fahrenheit.
(c) The owner or operator of a sheet-fed offset lithographic printing press shall meet one (1) of the following requirements for the fountain solution used on that press:
(1) Maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below five percent (5%), by weight, and use no alcohol in the fountain solution.
(2) If the fountain solution contains alcohol, maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below five percent (5%), by weight.
(3) If the fountain solution contains alcohol, maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below eight and one-half percent (8.5%), by weight, and refrigerate the fountain solution to below sixty (60) degrees Fahrenheit.
(d) The owner or operator of a nonheatset web offset lithographic printing press shall maintain the as-applied VOC content of the fountain solution at or below five percent (5%), by weight, and use no alcohol in the fountain solution.
(e) Where it can be demonstrated that an offset lithographic printing press cannot be operated with fountain solutions meeting the requirements of this rule, the owner or operator may submit a petition to the commissioner requesting a site-specific reasonably available control technology (RACT) plan as specified in 326 IAC 8-1-5.
(f) The owner or operator of an offset lithographic printing press or letterpress printing press shall meet the following requirements for cleaning materials:
(1) Use not more than one hundred ten (110) gallons per rolling twelve (12) month period of cleaning materials that exceed both of the following requirements:
(A) An as-applied VOC content less than seventy percent (70%), by weight.
(B) An as-applied VOC composite partial vapor pressure less than ten (10) mmHg at twenty (20) degrees Celsius (sixty-eight (68) degrees Fahrenheit).
(2) When not in use, all cleaning materials and solvent-laden shop towels shall be kept in closed containers.
