B.Day. "Day" means a period of 24 consecutive hours beginning at midnight local time, or beginning at a time consistent with a facility's operating schedule.
C.Flexographic printing press. "Flexographic printing press" means a printing press that uses a roll printing technique in which the pattern to be applied is raised above the printing roll and the image carrier is made of rubber or other elastomeric materials.
D.Maximum theoretical emissions. "Maximum theoretical emissions" means the quantity of VOC that theoretically could be emitted by a source without control devices based on the design capacity or maximum production capacity of the source and 8760 hours of operation per year. The design capacity or maximum production capacity includes use of coatings and inks with the highest VOC content used in practice by the source for the two years preceding the effective date of this regulation.
E.Packaging rotogravure printing press. "Packaging rotogravure printing press" means a rotogravure printing press used to print on paper, paper board, metal foil, plastic film, and other substrates that are, in subsequent operations, formed into packaging products and labels, and other nonpublication products.
F.Printing press. "Printing press" means equipment used to apply words, pictures, or graphic designs to either a continuous substrate or a sheet. A continuous substrate consists of paper, plastic, or other material that is unwound from a roll, passed through coating or ink applicators and any associated drying areas. The press includes all coating and ink applicators and drying areas between unwind and rewind of the continuous substrate. A sheet consists of paper, plastic, or other material that is carried through the process on a moving belt. The press includes all coating and ink applicators and drying operations between the time that the sheet is put on the moving belt until it is taken off.
G.Publication rotogravure printing press. "Publication rotogravure printing press" means a rotogravure printing press on which the following paper products are printed:
(1) Catalogues, including mail order and premium;
(2) Direct mail advertisements, including circulars, letters, pamphlets, cards, and printed envelopes;
(3) Display advertisements, including general posters, outdoor advertisements, car cards, window posters; counter and floor displays; points-of-purchase and other printed display material;

H.Roll printing. "Roll printing" means the application of words, designs, and pictures to a substrate, usually by means of a series of rolls each with only partial coverage.
I.Rotogravure coating. "Rotogravure coating" means the application of a coating material to a substrate by means of a roll coating technique in which the pattern to be applied is recessed relative to the non-image area, and the coating material is picked up in these recessed areas and is transferred to the substrate.
J.Rotogravure printing press. "Rotogravure printing press" means any printing press designed to print on a substrate using a gravure cylinder.
K.Substrate."Substrate" means the surface to which a coating is applied.
