| (3) The owner or operator of automobile and light-duty
truck assembly surface coating processes shall implement a work practice
plan containing procedures to minimize VOC emissions from cleaning
activities and purging of coating application equipment. Properties
with a work practice plan already in place to comply with requirements
specified in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) §63.3094(b)
(as amended through April 20, 2006 (71 FR 20464)), may incorporate
procedures for minimizing non-hazardous air pollutant VOC emissions
to comply with the work practice plan required by this paragraph.
(e) A surface coating process that becomes subject
to subsection (a) of this section by exceeding the exemption limits
in §115.451 of this title (relating to Exemptions) is subject
to the provisions in subsection (a) of this section even if throughput
or emissions later fall below exemption limits unless emissions are
maintained at or below the controlled emissions level achieved while
complying with subsection (a) of this section and one of the following
conditions is met.
(1) The project that caused throughput or emission
rate to fall below the exemption limits in §115.451 of this title
must be authorized by a permit, permit amendment, standard permit,
or permit by rule required by Chapters 106 or 116 of this title (relating
to Permits by Rule; and Control of Air Pollution by Permits for New
Construction or Modification, respectively). If a permit by rule is
available for the project, the owner or operator shall continue to
comply with subsection (a) of this section for 30 days after the filing
of documentation of compliance with that permit by rule.
(2) If authorization by permit, permit amendment, standard
permit, or permit by rule is not required for the project, the owner
or operator shall provide the executive director 30 days notice of
the project in writing.
