"VOC content" is determined using an EPA reference method, a California Air Resources Board reference method or other method approved by the Air Pollution Control Officer and EPA.
For each hazardous air contaminant listed in Appendix B herein and emitted by a stationary source, the source shall apply control technology, production processes or other techniques adequate to achieve the hazardous most stringent emission rate (HMSER). Once the Secretary has determined HMSER for a stationary source and this determination has been included in an order or agreement entered into or issued under the authority of the Act, 3 V.S.A. § 2822 or other State statutes, said determination shall remain in effect for five years, unless the source is modified or reconstructed during said five years. At the end of said five years, the determination shall expire unless the source demonstrates to the Secretary that such emission rate still represents HMSER.
The Secretary may require any person subject to this section to submit to him or her an air quality impact evaluation which shall demonstrate whether the actual emissions from the source, in conjunction with emissions from all other sources, will or will not cause or contribute to ambient air concentrations in excess of any Hazardous Ambient Air Standard as set forth in Appendix C of these regulations. Said evaluation shall be performed in accordance with the Agency's air quality impact evaluation guidelines (revised November 20, 1992) and shall include an analysis of ambient air monitoring data for each contaminant evaluated, if reliable and representative data exists. In determining whether such an impact evaluation is warranted, the Secretary shall take into consideration the following factors:
No person shall discharge, or cause or allow the discharge of, any hazardous air contaminants from a stationary source which cause or contribute to ambient air concentrations in excess of any Hazardous Ambient Air Standard.
The ambient air quality standards contained in this subchapter are based on national ambient air quality standards, with the exception of sulfates which are a state standard only. The primary standards define levels of air quality judged adequate to protect the public health. The secondary standards define levels of air quality judged adequate to protect the public welfare, to prevent injury to animal or plant life or property, and to prevent unreasonable interference with the enjoyment of life or property.
The ambient air quality standards for sulfur oxides, measured as sulfur dioxide in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
75 parts per billion (ppb), with a 1-hour averaging time and a form of the 99th percentile of 1-hour daily maximum concentrations, averaged over 3 years (Primary Standard).
0.5 parts per million (ppm), with a 3-hour averaging time and a form that is not to be exceeded more than once per year (Secondary Standard).
The ambient air quality standards for particulate matter PM2.5, measured in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
35 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m [3 ]), with a 24-hour averaging time and a form of the 98 [th ] percentile, averaged over 3 years (Primary and Secondary Standard).
12 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m [3 ]), with an annual averaging time and a form of the annual mean averaged over 3 years (Primary Standard).

The ambient air quality standards for particulate matter PM10, measured in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
150 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m [3 ]), with a 24-hour averaging time and a form not to be exceeded more than once per year on average over 3 years (Primary and Secondary Standard).
The ambient air quality standards for carbon monoxide, measured in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
35 parts per million (ppm), with a 1-hour averaging time and a form not to be exceeded more than once per year (Primary Standard).
9 parts per million (ppm), with an 8-hour averaging time and a form not to be exceeded more than once per year (Primary Standard).
The ambient air quality standards for ozone, measured in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
0.075 parts per million (ppm), with an 8-hour averaging time and a form of the annual fourth-highest daily maximum 8-hour concentration, averaged over 3 years (Primary and Secondary Standard).
The ambient air quality standards for nitrogen dioxide, measured in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
100 parts per billion (ppb), with a 1 hour averaging time, and a form of the 98 [th ] percentile, averaged over 3 years (Primary Standard).
53 parts per billion (ppb), with an annual averaging time, and a form of the annual mean (Primary and Secondary Standard).
The ambient air quality standards for lead and its compounds, measured in accordance with 40 C.F.R. Part 50, are:
0.15 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m [3 ]), with a rolling 3-month average averaging time and a not-to-be-exceeded form, evaluated over a 3-year period (Primary and Secondary Standard).
The ambient air quality standards for sulfates, measured by methods approved by the Air Pollution Control Officer, are:
2 µg/m [3 ] - maximum 24-hour concentration (Secondary Standard).
2 µg/m [3 ] - summer seasonal arithmetic mean, April to September inclusive (Secondary Standard).
These standards shall apply in any area defined as a sensitive area under these regulations.
The Air Pollution Control Officer may at any time require written reports from the person operating or responsible for any proposed or existing air contaminant source, which reports shall contain information concerning location, siting, size and height of contaminant outlets, processes employed, pertinent process and material flow, fuels used, nature and amount and time periods or durations of emissions and such other information as may be relevant to the air pollution potential of the source. These reports shall also include the results of such source testing as may be required under Section 5-404 herein.
No person shall build, erect, install or use any article, machine, equipment or other contrivances, the use of which, without resulting in a reduction in the total release of air contaminants to the atmosphere, reduces or conceals an emission which otherwise would constitute a violation of these regulations.
No person shall willfully, negligently, or through failure to provide necessary equipment or to take necessary precautions, permit any emission of such quantities of air contaminants which will cause, by themselves or in conjunction with other air contaminants, a condition of air pollution.
Any person owning, operating or leasing a stationary source for which a permit, certification or any other approval issued by the Secretary is in effect, who transfers responsibility, coverage and liability, shall provide a written notification of said action to the Agency containing the specific date of the transfer of responsibility, coverage, and liability between the current and new owner, operator or lessor. In the case where notification required under the section is in relation to a permit, such notification shall be considered an administrative amendment to the permit.
All such increments shall be added together for determining the applicability of this section.
No person shall initiate construction of any major stationary source or major modification until the applicable requirements of this section have been complied with and a permit approving construction has been issued in accordance with Section 5-501 herein.
Any source or modification subject to this section that would be constructed in an area designated as non-attainment for a pollutant for which the source or modification is major, and any major source or modification that is major for ozone and/or precursors to ozone, shall conduct an analysis of alternative sites, sizes, production processes and environmental control techniques for such proposed source that demonstrates that the benefits of the proposed source significantly outweigh the environmental and social costs imposed as a result of its location, construction or modification.

Appendix D. Method for the Derivation of Hazardous Ambient Air Standard.
This appendix presents the standard procedure which shall be used by the Secretary when deriving a Hazardous Ambient Air Standard (HAAS), in micrograms per cubic meter, for a hazardous air contaminant. In the event the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) adopts an ambient air quality standard or a standardized method for determining such a standard for a hazardous air contaminant, the Secretary may set the HAAS for the contaminant at the level or by the method so established by the U.S. EPA. The HAAS may be no less stringent than the Federal ambient air quality standard.
CATEGORY I: Hazardous Air Contaminants that are Known or Suspected Carcinogens
Hazardous air contaminants that have been listed as potentially carcinogenic by the U.S. EPA, or International Agency for Research on Cancer, shall be classified as Category I: known or suspected carcinogens (except for HACs solely categorized by IARC as Group 1, inhaled in a form from occupational sources). Hazardous air contaminants that are reported to induce cancer in two or more species by the National Toxicological Program may also be classified as known or suspected carcinogens by the Secretary after consultation with the Vermont Department of Health.
The HAAS for each Category 1 hazardous air contaminant shall be set at a level estimated to correspond to an excess lifetime carcinogenic risk of one in one million assuming continual inhalation exposure. In cases where there is insufficient data available to derive such a value, the HAAS shall be set at 0.01 µg/m [3 ].
The averaging period for known or suspected carcinogens shall be annual.
CATEGORIES II AND III: Hazardous Air Contaminants Believed to Cause Chronic Systemic Toxicity due to Long-term Exposure or Short-term Irritant Effects
Those hazardous air contaminants not identified as potentially carcinogenic as defined above, are referred to as non-carcinogens and are divided into two categories:
Category II: Hazardous Air Contaminants Believed to Cause Chronic Systemic Toxicity due to Long-term Exposure; and
Category III: Hazardous Air Contaminants Believed to Cause Short-term Irritant Effects.
For both types of effects, it is generally assumed that some threshold level of toxicity exists (i.e. there is some level of exposure below which no adverse health effects are likely to occur).
Because the actual threshold level of exposure will vary from individual to individual, assessment of such compounds focuses on estimating a population threshold level. The HAAS for each Category II and Category III compound shall be set at a level estimated to correspond to such a threshold based on continual inhalation exposure.
Various sources of toxicity information shall be examined in the development of a HAAS for each Category II and Category III hazardous air contaminants. These sources shall include, but are not limited to: U.S. EPA RfCs, occupational values (e.g., ACGIH TLVs, NIOSH RELS, VOSHA PELs), ATSDR MRLs, California EPA RELs, National AEGLs and reports published in the peer reviewed literature.
Uncertainty Factor
One or more uncertainty factors, each ranging from 1 to 10, may be applied in the development of a HAAS for each Category II or Category III hazardous air contaminant. Where appropriate, an additional modifying factor, typically ranging from 1 to 10, may be included in the calculation. The total adjustment factor applied will depend on the nature and extent of chemical specific toxicity information available for review.
Averaging Time
The averaging period for Category II hazardous air contaminants shall be annual. A 24 hour averaging period will be employed for Category III hazardous air contaminants.
Alternative Methods
In the event that insufficient toxicological information is available with which to derive a HAAS for Category II and Category III hazardous air contaminants, a default value shall be set for each category at the median value of all HAAS published in Appendix C for the given category. The action level shall be derived in accordance with Appendix E.
Appendix E. Method for the Derivation of Action Levels.
This appendix presents the standard procedure which shall be used by the Secretary when deriving an Action Level, in pounds of emissions per eight hours, for a hazardous air contaminant.
Action Levels shall be calculated for all hazardous air contaminants for which the Secretary has established a HAAS by one of the following methods:
