| (37) Flare--An open combustion unit (i.e., lacking
an enclosed combustion chamber) whose combustion air is provided by
uncontrolled ambient air around the flame, and that is used as a control
device. A flare may be equipped with a radiant heat shield (with or
without a refractory lining), but is not equipped with a flame air
control damping system to control the air/fuel mixture. In addition,
a flare may also use auxiliary fuel. The combustion flame may be elevated
or at ground level. A vapor combustor, as defined in this section,
is not considered a flare.
(38) Fuel oil--Any oil meeting the American Society
for Testing and Materials (ASTM) specifications for fuel oil in ASTM
D396-01, Standard Specifications for Fuel Oils, revised 2001. This
includes fuel oil grades 1, 1 (Low Sulfur), 2, 2 (Low Sulfur), 4 (Light),
4, 5 (Light), 5 (Heavy), and 6.

contaminant entering the atmosphere that could not reasonably pass
through a stack, chimney, vent, or other functionally equivalent opening
designed to direct or control its flow.
(40) Garbage--Solid waste consisting of putrescible
animal and vegetable waste materials resulting from the handling,
preparation, cooking, and consumption of food, including waste materials
from markets, storage facilities, and handling and sale of produce
and other food products.
(41) Gasoline--Any petroleum distillate having a Reid
vapor pressure of four pounds per square inch (27.6 kilopascals) or
greater that is produced for use as a motor fuel, and is commonly
called gasoline.
(42) Greenhouse gases (GHGs)--the aggregate group of
six greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide (CO2),
nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4 ), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons
(PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6 ).
(43) Hazardous wastes--Any solid waste identified or
listed as a hazardous waste by the administrator of the United States
Environmental Protection Agency under the federal Solid Waste Disposal
Act, as amended by Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 United
States Code, §§6901 et seq., as
amended.
(44) Heatset (used in offset lithographic printing)--Any
operation where heat is required to evaporate ink oil from the printing
ink. Hot air dryers are used to deliver the heat.
(45) High-bake coatings--Coatings designed to cure
at temperatures above 194 degrees Fahrenheit.
(46) High-volume low-pressure spray guns--Equipment
used to apply coatings by means of a spray gun that operates between
0.1 and 10.0 pounds per square inch gauge air pressure measured at
the air cap.
(47) Incinerator--An enclosed combustion apparatus
and attachments that is used in the process of burning wastes for
the primary purpose of reducing its volume and weight by removing
the combustibles of the waste and is equipped with a flue for conducting
products of combustion to the atmosphere. Any combustion device that
burns 10% or more of solid waste on a total British thermal unit (Btu)
heat input basis averaged over any one-hour period is considered to
be an incinerator. A combustion device without instrumentation or
methodology to determine hourly flow rates of solid waste and burning
1.0% or more of solid waste on a total Btu heat input basis averaged
annually is also considered to be an incinerator. An open-trench type
(with closed ends) combustion unit may be considered an incinerator
when approved by the executive director. Devices burning untreated
wood scraps, waste wood, or sludge from the treatment of wastewater
from the process mills as a primary fuel for heat recovery are not
included under this definition. Combustion devices permitted under
this title as combustion devices other than incinerators will not
be considered incinerators for application of any rule within this
title provided they are installed and operated in compliance with
the condition of all applicable permits.
(48) Industrial boiler--A boiler located on the site
of a facility engaged in a manufacturing process where substances
are transformed into new products, including the component parts of
products, by mechanical or chemical processes.
(49) Industrial furnace--Cement kilns; lime kilns;
aggregate kilns; phosphate kilns; coke ovens; blast furnaces; smelting,
melting, or refining furnaces, including pyrometallurgical devices
such as cupolas, reverberator furnaces, sintering machines, roasters,
or foundry furnaces; titanium dioxide chloride process oxidation reactors;
methane reforming furnaces; pulping recovery furnaces; combustion
devices used in the recovery of sulfur values from spent sulfuric
acid; and other devices the commission may list.
(50) Industrial solid waste--Solid waste resulting
from, or incidental to, any process of industry or manufacturing,
or mining or agricultural operations, classified as follows.
(A) Class 1 industrial solid waste or Class 1 waste
is any industrial solid waste designated as Class 1 by the executive
director as any industrial solid waste or mixture of industrial solid
wastes that because of its concentration or physical or chemical characteristics
is toxic, corrosive, flammable, a strong sensitizer or irritant, a
generator of sudden pressure by decomposition, heat, or other means,
and may pose a substantial present or potential danger to human health
or the environment when improperly processed, stored, transported,
or otherwise managed, including hazardous industrial waste, as defined
in §335.1 and §335.505 of this title (relating to Definitions
and Class 1 Waste Determination).
(B) Class 2 industrial solid waste is any individual
solid waste or combination of industrial solid wastes that cannot
be described as Class 1 or Class 3, as defined in §335.506 of
this title (relating to Class 2 Waste Determination).
(C) Class 3 industrial solid waste is any inert and
essentially insoluble industrial solid waste, including materials
such as rock, brick, glass, dirt, and certain plastics and rubber,
etc., that are not readily decomposable as defined in §335.507
of this title (relating to Class 3 Waste Determination).
(51) Internal floating cover--A cover or floating roof
in a fixed roof tank that rests upon or is floated upon the liquid
being contained, and is equipped with a closure seal or seals to close
