NESHAP for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII), (Final Rule)

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating were proposed on December 24, 2002, promulgated on April 26, 2004, and amended on December 22, 2006 and April 24, 2007. The NESHAP is codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII. This supporting statement addresses information collection activities that will be imposed by the NESHAP for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating, including activities added based on the residual risk and technology review (RTR) required under the Clean Air Act (CAA). The NESHAP for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating applies to each new and existing affected source of HAP emissions at facilities that are major sources and that perform surface coating operations on automobiles and light-duty trucks. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after December 24, 2002. As part of the RTR for the NESHAP for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is not revising the emission limit requirements. The EPA is requiring periodic air emissions testing to measure organic HAP destruction or removal efficiency at the inlet and outlet of the add-on control device, or control device outlet concentration of organic HAP, once every 5 years for existing and new surface coating affected sources using the emission rate with add-on controls compliance option. The EPA is revising the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions of the Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rule and requiring the use of electronic data reporting for future performance test data submittals, notifications, and reports. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII.
