Ill. Admin. Code tit. 35, § 218.219 - Work Practice Standards for Automobile and Light-Duty Truck Assembly Coatings and Miscellaneous Metal and Plastic Parts Coatings
a) Every owner or operator of a coating line
subject to the requirements of Section
218.204(a)(2)
of this Subpart shall:
1) Store all
VOM-containing coatings, thinners, coating-related waste materials, cleaning
materials, and used shop towels in closed containers;
2) Ensure that mixing and storage containers
used for VOM-containing coatings, thinners, and coating-related waste materials
are kept closed at all times except when depositing or removing those
materials;
3) Minimize spills of
VOM-containing coatings, thinners, and coating-related
waste materials;
4) Convey VOM-containing coatings, thinners,
and coating-related waste
materials from one location to another in closed containers or pipes;
5) Minimize VOM
emissions from cleaning of storage, mixing, and conveying equipment;
6) Develop and implement a work practice plan
to minimize VOM emissions from cleaning and from purging of equipment
associated with coating lines subject to the limitations in Section
218.204(a)(2).
The plan shall specify practices and procedures that the source will follow to
ensure that VOM emissions from the operations listed in this subsection (a)(6)
are minimized. If the owner or operator of the subject coating line has already
implemented a work practice plan for the coating line pursuant to Subpart IIII
of 40 CFR 63, incorporated by reference in Section
218.112
of this Part, the owner or operator may revise the plan as necessary to comply
with this Section.
A) Vehicle body
wiping;
B) Coating line
purging;
C) Flushing of coating
systems;
D) Cleaning of spray booth
grates, walls, and equipment; and
F) Cleaning of external spray booth
areas.
b)
Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, every owner or operator
of a coating line described in Section
218.204(q)
of this Subpart shall:
1) Store all
VOM-containing coatings, thinners, coating-related waste materials, cleaning
materials, and used shop towels in closed containers;
2) Ensure that mixing and storage containers
used for VOM-containing coatings, thinners, coating-related waste materials,
and cleaning materials are kept closed at all times except when depositing or
removing these materials;
3)
Minimize spills of VOM-containing coatings, thinners, coating-related
waste materials, and cleaning materials;
4) Convey VOM-containing coatings, thinners,
coating-related waste materials, and cleaning materials from one location to
another in closed containers or pipes;
5) Minimize VOC emissions from cleaning of
application, storage, mixing, and conveying equipment by ensuring that
equipment cleaning is performed without atomizing the cleaning solvent and all
spent solvent is captured in closed containers; and
6) Apply all coatings using one or more of
the following application methods:
A)
Electrostatic spray;
B) High volume
low pressure (HVLP) spray;
C) Flow
coating. For the purposes of this subsection (b)(6)(C), flow coating means a
non-atomized technique of applying coating to a substrate with a fluid nozzle
with no air supplied to the nozzle;
D) Roll coating;
E) Dip coating, including electrodeposition.
For purposes of this subsection (b)(6)(E), electrodeposition means a
water-borne dip coating process in which opposite electrical charges are
applied to the substrate and the coating. The coating is attracted to the
substrate due to the electrochemical potential difference that is
created;
F) Airless
spray;
G) Air-assisted airless
spray; or
H) Another coating
application method capable of achieving a transfer efficiency equal to or
better than that achieved by HVLP spraying, if the method is approved in
writing by the Agency.
c) Notwithstanding subsection (b) of this
Section, the application method limitations in subsection (b)(6) shall not
apply to the following:
1) Coating lines
complying with Section
218.207(n)(1);
2) For metal parts and products coating
operations: touch-up coatings, repair coatings, textured finishes, stencil
coatings, safety-indicating coatings, solid-film lubricants,
electric-insulating and thermal-conducting coatings, magnetic data storage disk
coatings, and plastic extruded onto metal parts to form a coating;
3) For pleasure craft surface coating
operations: extreme high gloss coatings;
4) For plastic parts and products coating
operations: airbrush operations using 18.9 liters (5 gallons) or less of
coating per year;
5) For ammunition
sealant operations: cap sealants and mouth waterproofing sealants.
