ABSTRACT
The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1977 require all states in which there
are any nonattainment areas to adopt and submit revised State Implementation
Plans no later than January 1, 1979. Specifically, EPA requires that the
1979 oxidant plan submissions for major urban areas should contain, as a
minimum, legally enforceable regulations to reflect the application of reason-
ably available control technology to the 15 stationary source categories for
which guidelines issued by the EPA Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards
(OAQPS) were published as of January 1978.
This report provides guidance for regulation development iu the form of
sample regulations based heavily on the guidelines prepared by EPA OAQPS
for 15 categories of stationary sources as well as existing Federal and State
laws. In addition the report contains a compendium of existing regulations
and test procedures. The sample regulations set forth in regulatory format
definitions, emission limitations, equipment standards, exemptions, compliance
schedules and testing methods and procedures.

SECTION* 1
INTR'JDUCTIOr
The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1977 require each state in which there is
any nonattaimaent area (as defined in subpart D of the Clean Air Act) to adopt
and submit a revised State Implementation Plan (SI?) which meets the require-
ments of section 110(a)(2)(I) and subpart D of the Clean Air Act no later than
January 1, 1979.
Specifically, EPA requires that the 1979 oxidant plan submissions for
major urban areas should contain, as a minimum, legally enforceable regulations
to reflect the application of Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) to
those stationary sources for which the U.S. EPA's, OAQPS has published a guide-
line by January 1978, and provide for the adoption and submittal of additional
legally enforceable procedures within 1 year after publication of subsequent
guidelines.
The 15 stationary volatile organic compound source categories for which
guidelines were available in January 1978 are:
• Surface Coating of Automobiles and Light-Duty Trucks
• Surface Coating oi Cans
• Surface Coating of Metal Coils
• Surface Coating ^f Paper
• Surface Coating of Fabric Product;
t Surface Coating of Metal Furniture
• Surface Coating of Large Appliances
• Surface Coating for Insulation of Magnet Wire
.• Petroleum Liquids in Fixed-Roof Tanks
• Bulk Gasoline Plants
• Gasoline Loading Terminals
• Service Stations Stage I.
• Miscellaneous Refinery Sources
• Solvent Metal Cleaning
• Cutback Asphalt

~ y^H^T T**^ V>*/
In order to Insure that the spates develop and submit technically sound
and legally enforceable regulations within a relatively tight time schedule,
this report provides regulatory guidance in the form of model regulations for
the 15 stationary volatile organic compound source categories and includes a
compendium of information relating to the control and regulation of volatile
organic compound emissions.
The model regulations begin with a number of provisions which are generally
appJlcrMe. Some of f.hese provisions will already have been promulgated by the
states but are included here to emphasize their necessity.
The compliance schedules presented include dates which are felt to repre-
sent average tine periods experienced ^«r completion of the increments of
progress. The increments of progress presented are the minimum that fahould be
included in any compliance schedule.
The regulations and test procedures were developed directly from the 11
OAQPS guideline documents which were available in January 1978. The phrasing
was extracted from both the guideline documents and existing state and federal
regulations. Copies of existing regulations which were used are included in
Appendix A.
The bibliography lists recent articles and reports that will be useful to
the reader who must become more familiar with the source categories or is faced
with a unique source configuration.

SECTION 2
MODEL REGULATIONS FOR VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND RACT CATEGORIES
The Model Regulations for Volatile Organic Compound RACT Categories are

ganization more understandable.
The regulations are grouped into four major sections and each major sec-
tion is subsequently divided into individual regulations. It is important _o
note that the section numbers used (i.e., XX.9211) are arbitrary and are for

paragraph (a) of this section; and,
(2) the Director determines that the petitioner
cannot comply with §XX.9200 because of tech-
nological infeasibility (considering costs);
and,
(3) all other air contaminant emissions from the
subject facility are in compliance with, or un-
der a schedule for compliance as expeditiously
as practicable with, all applicable local,
state, and federal regulations; and,

viscosity liquid asphalt to an absorbent surface.
It is used to prepare an untreated base for an as-
phalt surface. The prime penetrates the base and
plugs the voids, hardens the top, and helps bind it
to the overlying asphalt course. It also reduces
the necessity of maintaining an untreated base course
prior to placing the asphalt pavement.

SXX.9403 Determination of Volatile Organic Compound Emission
Control System Efficiency.
(a) The provisions of this section ore generally applicable,
in accordance with §XX.9401, to any test method em-
ployed to determine the collection or control efficiency
of any device or system designed, installed, and operated
for the purpose of reducing volatile organic compound
emissions.
47
-------
(b) The following procedures shall be included in any effi-
ciency determination:
(1) The volatile organic compound containing material
shall be sampled and analyzed in a manner approved
by the Director such that the quantity of emissions
that could result from the use of the material can
be quantified.
(2) The efficiency of any capture system used to trans-
port the volatile organic compound emissions from
their point of origination to the control equipment
shall be computed using accepted engineering
practice and in a manner approved by the Director.
(3) Samples of the volatile, organic compound containing
gas stream shall be taken simultaneously at the
inlet and outlet of the emissions control device
in a manner approved by the Director.
(4) The total combustible carbon content of the samples
shall be determined by a method approved by the
Director.
(5) The efficiency of the control device shall be expressed
as the fraction of total combustible carbon content
reduction achieved.
(6) The volatile organic compound mass emission rate
shall be the sum of emissions from the control device,
emissions not collected by the capture system and
capture system losses.
§XX.9404 Determination of Solvent Metal Cleaning Volatile
Organic Compound Emissions.
(a) This method is applicable to determining volatile organic
compound emissions from solvent metal cleaning equipment.
(b) The purpose of this method is to quantify, by material
balance, the amount of solvent input into a degreaser over
a sufficiently long period of time so that an average
emission rate can be computed.
(c) The following procedure shall be followed to perform a
material balance test:
(1) Clean the degreaser sump before testing.
(2) Record the amount of solvent added to the tank
with a flow meter.
48
-------
(3) Record the weight and type of work load degreased
each day.
(4) At"the end of the test run, pump out the used sol-
vent and measure the amount with a flow meter.
Also, estimate the volume of metal chips and other
material remaining in the emptied sump, if
significant.
(5) Bottle a sample of the used solvent and analyze
it to find the percent that is oil and other con-
taminants. The oil and solvent proportions can be
estimated by weighing samples of used solvent before
and after boiling off the solvent. Compute the volume
of oils' in the used solvent. The volume of solvent
displaced by this oil along with the volume of make-up
solvent added during operations is equal to the sol-
vent emission.
§XX.9405 Test Procedure for Determination of VOC Emissions
From Bulk Gasoline Terminals.
(a) Principle. VOC mass emissions are determined directly
using flow meters and hydrocarbon analyzers. The volume
of liquid gasoline dispensed is determined by computation
based on the metered quantity of gasoline at the loading
rack. Test results are expressed in milligrams of hydro-
carbons emitted per liter of gasoline transferred.
(b) Summary of the Method. This method describes the test
conditions and test procedures to be followed in deter-
mining the emissions from systems installed to control
volatile organic compound vapors resulting from tank
truck and trailer loading operations at bulk terminals.
Under this procedure, direct measurements are made to
compute the hydrocarbon mass exhausted from the vapor
control system. All possible sources of leaks are
qualitatively checked to insure that no uncontrolled
vapors are emitted to the atmosphere. The results are
expressed in terms of mass hydrocarbons emitted per
unit volume of gasoline transferred. Emissions are de-
termined on a total hydrocarbon basis. If methane is
present in the vapors returned from the tank trucks or
trailers, provisions are included for conversion to a
total nonmethane hydrocarbon basis.
(c) Applicability. This method is applicable to determining
VOC emission rates at tank truck and trailer gasoline
loading terminals employing vapor collection systems and
49
i

-------
either continuous or intermittent vapor control systems.
This method is applicable to motor tank truck and trailer
loading only as per §XX.9212.
(d) Apparatus. The components essential to the evaluation
of emissions from gasoline loading terminals are;
(1) portable combustible gas detector equipped to
read 0 to 100 percent of the lower explosive limit,
(2) flexible thermocouple with recorder,
(3) gas volume meter, sized fo- the expected exhaust
flow rate and range,
(4) total hydrocarbon analyzer with recorder (flame
ionization detector or nondispersive infrared
equipped to read 0 to 10 percent by volume hydro-
carbon as propane for vapor control systems which
recover the vapor as liquid; or 0 to 10,000 ppnv
hydrocarbon as propane for incineration vapor con-
trol systems),
(5) barometer to measure atmospheric pressure,
(6) gas chromatography/flame ionization detector with
a column to separate Cj - Cy alkanes; used if me-
thane is present in recovered vapors or if incinera-
tion is the vapor control technique.
(e) Test requirements.
(1) No less than three 8-hour test repetitions will be
performed.
(2) During the test period, all loading racks shall be
open for each product line which is controlled by
the system under test. Simultaneous use of more
than one loading rack shall occur to the extent that
such use would normally occur.
(3) Simultaneous use of more than one dispenser on each
loading rack shall occur to the extent that such use
would normally occur.
(4) Dispensing rates shall be set at the maximum rate at
which the equipment is designed to be operated.
Automatic product dispensers are to be used accord-
ing to normal operating practices.
50
-------
(5) Applicable operating parameters of the vapor control
system shall be monitored to demonstrate that the
control unit is operating at design levels. For
intermittent vapcr control systems employing a vapor
holder, each test repetition shall include at least
one iully automatic operation cycle of the vapor
holder and control device. Tank trucks and trailers
shall be essentially leak free as determined by the
Director.
(f) Basic Measurements Required. The basic measurements essen-
tial to the evaluation of emissions from gasoline loading terminals are:
(1) the amount of gasoline dispensed from gasoline
dispensers,
(2) leak check of all fittings and vents,
(3) the following items for the processing unit
exhaust;
(i) temperature,
(ii) pressure,
(iii) volume of vapors,
(iv) hydrocarbon concentration of vapors,
(v) gas chromatograph analysis of vapors if
methane is present in recovered vapors.
(g) Test Procedure.
(1) Calibrate and span all instruments as outlined
under paragraph (j) of this section.
(2) Install an appropriately sized gas meter on the
exhaust veni of the vapor control system. For
those vapor control systems where size restrictions
preclude the use of a volume meter; or when in-
cineration is used for vapor control, a gas flow
rate meter (orifice, pitot tube, annubar, etc.) is
necessary. At the m; cer inlet, install a ther-
mocouple with recorder. Install a tap at the volume
meter outlet. Attach a sample line for a total
hydrocarbon analyzer (0 to 10 percent as propane)
to this tap. If the meter pressure is different
than barometric pressure, install a second tap at
the meter outlet and attach an appropriate manometer
for pressure measurement. If methane analysis is
required, install a third tap for connection to a
constant volume sample pump/evacuated bag assembly
as described in Method 3, Federal Register, 36:247,
December 23, 1977.

STATE OF OHIO
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, under rule AP-5-07(E)(1)(c), the Director of the Ohio
Environmental Protection Agency, as successor to the Ohio Air Pollution
Control Board, has authority to approve equipment to control emissions of
volatile photochemically reactive materials at loading facilities; and
WHEREAS, the Director has reviewed the acceptability of fully submerged
loading and bottom loading equipment as an alternative to vapor recovery,
absorption or condensation systems; and
WHEREAS, the Director has reached the following conclusions:
(1) Fully submerged loading or bottom loading reduced emissions of
hydrocarbons by approximately 652 to 70% as compared to uncontrolled
splash loading, while vapor recovery systems, when optimally operating,
reduce hydrocarbon emissions by no more than 85% as compared to
uncontrolled splash loading.
(2) This difference in emission controls will increase total hydrocarbon
emissions in Priority 1 regions by no more than 0.5%.
(3) Vapor recovery and vapor incineration systems as presently designed
are not reliable in conditions of cold weather and present an
Increased danger of operational hazard.
(4) The installation of fully submerged loading or bottom loading is
essential as a part of the installation of any vapor recovery system.
(5) Additional research and development over the coming months and years
can be expected to either overcome the present weaknesses of the
vapor recovery system or produce alternative control systems that
are more effective than fully submerged loading.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED THAT '
(1) Bottom loading or fully submerged loading is hereby approved as an
acceptable means of controlling hydrocarbon emissions under rule
AP-5-07(E)(l)(c) when installed in such a manner as to permit the
addition of vapor recovery or vapor incineration units when and if
such units become acceptable.
(2) The acceptability of bottom loading or fully submerged loading without
the addition of vapor control or vapor incineration systems will be
reviewed one year from the date of this resolution to determine
whether improvements in the design of vapor recovery or vapor
incineration systems, or other alternative systems, have progressed
to such a point as to justify requiring their installation.
