Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Flexible Vinyl and Urethane Coating and Printing were proposed on January 18, 1983, promulgated on June 29, 1984, and amended on October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to facilities with rotogravure printing lines used to print or coat flexible vinyl or urethane products for which construction, modification or reconstruction commenced after January 18, 1983. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart FFF. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS.
