Section 129.102. Emission standards

An owner or operator of a facility subject to this section, § § 129.101 and 129.103—129.107 shall limit VOC emissions from wood furniture manufacturing operations by:

(1) Applying either waterborne topcoats or a combination of sealers and topcoats and strippable spray booth coatings with a VOC content equal to or less than the standards specified in Table IV:

Table IV Emission Limits of VOC for Wood Furniture Manufacturing Sealers, Topcoats and Strippable Spray Booth Coatings As Applied, in Pounds of VOC Per Pound of Coating Solids (kg VOC/kg of Coating Solids), by Category
(1)	Waterborne Topcoats		0.8
(2)	High solids coating systems
		Sealer	1.9
		Topcoat	1.8
(3)	Acid-cured alkyd amino systems
	(i)	Acid-cured alkyd amino sealer	2.3
		Acid-cured alkyd amino conversion varnish topcoat	2.0
	(ii)	Other sealer	1.9
		Acid-cured alkyd amino conversion varnish topcoat	2.0
	(iii)	Acid-cured alkyd amino sealer	2.3
		Other topcoat	1.8
(4)	Waterborne strippable spray booth coating		0.8

(2) Using an emissions averaging program which meets the requirements in § 129.107 (relating to special provisions for facilities using an emissions averaging approach).

(3) Using a control system that will achieve a reduction in emissions equivalent to 0.8 lb VOC/lb solids for topcoats or 1.8 lbs VOC/lb solids for topcoats and 1.9 lbs VOC/lb solids for sealers.

(4) Using a combination of the methods specified in paragraphs (1)—(3).

The provisions of this § 129.102 adopted June 9, 2000, effective June 10, 2000, 30 Pa.B. 2995.
