W. Va. Code R. § 45-21-18

Current through Register Vol. XLI, No. 50, December 13, 2024
Section 45-21-18 - Coating of Magnet Wire
18.1. Applicability.
18.1.1. This section 18. applies to any magnet wire coating line.
18.1.2. This section 18. does not apply to any coating line within a facility whose emissions without control devices from all magnet wire coating lines within the facility are less than 6.8 kilograms (kg) (15 pounds [lb]) volatile organic compound (VOC) per day. An owner or operator of a facility whose emissions are below this applicability threshold shall comply with the certification, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements of subdivision 18.7.1.
18.2. Definitions. -- As used in this section 18., all terms not defined herein shall have the meaning given them in section 2.
18.2.1. "Magnet wire coating line" means a coating line in which an electrically insulating varnish or enamel is applied onto the surface of wire for use in electrical machinery.
18.3. Standards.
18.3.1. No owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. shall cause or allow the use of any coating with VOC content in excess of 0.20 kilograms per liter (kg/L) (1.7 pounds per gallon [lb/gal]) of coating, minus water and exempt compounds, as applied.
18.3.2. As an alternative to compliance with the emission limit in subdivision 18.3.1., an owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. may meet the requirements of subsection 18.4. or subsection 18.5.
18.4. Daily-weighted average limitation. -- No owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. shall apply coatings on that line, during any day, whose daily-weighted average VOC content, calculated in accordance with the procedure specified in section 43., exceeds the emission limit in subdivision 18.3.1.
18.5. Control devices. -- An owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. shall comply with this section 18. by:
18.5.1. Installing and operating a capture system on that line;
18.5.2. Installing and operating a control device on that line;
18.5.3. Determining for each day the overall emission reduction efficiency needed to demonstrate compliance. The overall emission reduction needed for a day is the lesser of the value calculated according to the procedure in subsection 43.2. for that day or 95 percent; and
18.5.4. Demonstrating each day that the overall emission reduction efficiency achieved for that day, as determined in subsection 44.3., is greater than or equal to the overall emission reduction efficiency required for that day.
18.6. Test methods. -- The test methods found in sections 41. through 44. shall be used to determine compliance with this section 18.
18.7. Recordkeeping and reporting.
18.7.1. An owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line that is exempt from the emission limitations in subsection 18.3. shall comply with the certification, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in subsection 4.2.
18.7.2. An owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. and complying with subsection 18.3. by the use of complying coatings shall comply with the certification, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in subsection 4.3.
18.7.3. An owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. and complying with subsection 18.4. by daily-weighted averaging shall comply with the certification, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in subsection 4.4.
18.7.4. An owner or operator of a magnet wire coating line subject to this section 18. and complying with subsection 18.5. by the use of control devices shall comply with the testing, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements in subsection 4.5.
