(a) The provisions
of this regulation shall be applicable to each wool fiberglass manufacturing
facility which has a VOC potential contaminant emission rate equal to or
greater than 100 tons per year on a facility-wide basis. A facility's VOC
potential contaminant emissions rate shall be determined by:
(1) the facility owner or operator estimate
of the maximum hourly production rate of each wool fiberglass manufacturing
line; and
(2) assuming that the
facility operates 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.
(b) No owner or operator of a wool fiberglass
manufacturing line shall cause or allow VOC to be discharged into the
atmosphere in excess of five pounds of VOC per ton of glass pulled.
(c) The owner or operator of the affected
facility shall demonstrate that each wool fiberglass manufacturing line is in
compliance with the VOC emissions rate of subsection (b) through testing as
specified in subsection (d) and calculations as specified in subsection (f).
(d) Testing of each wool
fiberglass manufacturing line shall be conducted:
(1) initially within 180 days after a
facility becomes subject to the provisions of this regulation, if recent
department approved testing has not been conducted prior to the time the
facility becomes subject to the provisions of this regulation, and thereafter
at other times considered by the department necessary to determine compliance
with this regulation;
(2) at the
expense of the owner;
(3) in
accordance with a test plan approved by the department before the testing is
scheduled. The plan shall include:
(A) name
of testing agency;
(B) testing
dates;
(C) sampling location;
(D) sampling equipment;
(E) sampling procedures;
(F) sample recovery methods; and
(G) any other information considered
necessary by the department;
(4) not less than 30 days after the owner or
operator submits, in writing, the proposed date of testing to the department;
and
(5) in a manner consistent
with:
(A) procedures established by the
department in approving test plans;
(B) 40 CFR Part
60, appendix A, reference
method 5E, as in effect July, 1986, with the following stipulations:
(i) the sampling time for each test run being
at least two hours and the volume of gas sampled being at least 90 dry standard
cubic feet;
(ii) samples collected
in the impingers shall be recovered as specified in "Container No. 5" in
paragraph 4.2;
(iii) samples shall
be analyzed as specified for "Container No. 5" in paragraph 4.3; and
(iv) the concentration of VOC shall be
calculated as specified for "Cc" in paragraphs 6.1 and 6.2; and
(C) the reference methods of 40
CFR Part
60, appendix A, as in effect July 1, 1986, for the collection of data
required during the testing procedure, as follows:
(i) reference method 1 for stack or duct gas
sample and velocity traverses;
(ii) reference method 2 for stack or duct gas
velocity and gas volumetric flow rate;
(iii) reference method 3 for stack or duct
gas dry molecular weight; and
(iv)
reference method 4 for stack or duct gas moisture content.
(e) In
addition to the parameters required to be recorded in subsection (d), the owner
or operator shall concurrently record the following parameters relating to
baseline operating conditions at each wool fiberglass manufacturing line:
(1) the product being produced;
(2) glass pull rate, weight per unit time;
(3) binder type;
(4) binder application rate, weight per unit
time;
(5) line speed where
applicable, length per unit time;
(6) trimmed mat width where applicable,
length;
(7) mat weight where
applicable, weight per unit area;
(8) loss on ignition as determined by ASTM
Standard Test Method D-2584-68, "Ignition Loss of Cured Reinforced Resin,"
percent; and
(9) the operating
parameters of any VOC emissions control devices at least once during each eight
hour work shift, such as:
(A) electrostatic
precitator electrical data and inlet temperature;
(B) wet scrubbing device water flow rate,
volume per unit time;
(C) wet
scrubbing device pressure drop, pressure units; and
(10) other parameters determined by the
department to be necessary to establish baseline conditions of the control
system.
(f) The actual
VOC emissions rate, to be used in determining compliance with the VOC emissions
rate of subsection (b), shall be calculated as follows:
(1) The VOC emissions rate, R, from each wool
fiberglass manufacturing line being determined using the VOC concentration, Cc,
determined in subsection (d)(5)(B)(iv) and the volumetric flow rate, Q, as
determined in subsection (d)(5)(C)(ii), using the following equation:
R = CcQ
where:
R = weight of VOC per unit time
Cc = weight of VOC per unit volume
Q = volumetric flow rate of gas stream at testing location,
actual volume per unit time;
(2) for each two hour test run, the average
glass pull rate, P, for each wool fiberglass manufacturing line shall be
computed from at least three glass pull rates determined at intervals of at
least 30 minutes during the test run. The individual glass pull rates shall be:
(A) computed according to the following
equation:
P = LWM (100 LOI)
100
where:
P = glass pull rate, weight per unit time
L = line speed, length per unit time
W = trimmed mat width, length
M = mat weight, weight per unit area
LOI = loss on ignition, percent, as determined by ASTM Standard
Test Method D-2584-68, "Ignition Loss of Cured Reinforced Resins," as in effect
1979; or
(B) determined by
measurements of the glass flowing from the rotary spinning process; and
(3) the emissions
level, E, for purposes of determining compliance with subsection (b), being
computed using the following equation:
E = R
P
where:
E = emission level, weight of VOC emissions per unit weight of
product, converted to units of the emissions standard in subsection (b)
R = emission rate, from subsection (f)(1)
P = average glass pull rate, from subsection (f)(2)
(g) The owner or
operator of each wool fiberglass manufacturing line subject to this regulation
shall keep and maintain at the facility, and make available for inspection by a
department representative, records needed to determine continuous compliance of
the plant with this regulation. The owner or operator shall keep the records in
a form suitable for inspection and shall maintain them at the facility for two
years following the date of record. The owner or operator shall maintain a
record of the production parameters listed in subsection (e) and any other
parameter the department may consider to be necessary to determine compliance
with this regulation.
(h) The
provisions of this regulation shall be applicable only to affected facilities
in areas which have been identified as not meeting the national primary ambient
air quality standard for ozone in the manner prescribed by the provisions of
Section 107(d) of the federal clean air act, 42 U.S.C.

40 CFR Part
81 as in effect July 1, 1986 and amended at 51 Fed. Reg.
