11-874. Control of area sources; rules;
industry sectors
A county with a population of more than one million two hundred thousand persons as
determined by the most recent United States decennial census that contains a
nonattainment area as defined in section 49-401.01 shall develop, implement and enforce
rules regulating the emissions from all of the following:
1. Wood coatings industry sector, through the use of technically feasible controls
to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds. The rules shall require the
reduction of a minimum of twenty-five per cent from the 1990 baseline emissions by
November 15, 1995.
2. Commercial bakery industry sector, through the use of technically feasible
controls to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds. The rules shall require
the reduction of a minimum of thirty per cent from the 1990 baseline emissions by
November 15, 1995.
3. Consumer and commercial products industry sector, through changes in the
formulation of any product used in the cleaning of automobile windshields that contains a
concentration of not more than thirty per cent by weight of volatile organic compounds as
an ingredient, a solvent or any other component by November 15, 1995. The rules shall
require those reductions to be achieved before the development of control techniques
guidance standards developed by the United States environmental protection agency for
that industry sector. If the administrator of the United States environmental protection
agency finds that area A, as defined in section 49-541, has failed to demonstrate
reasonable further progress or has failed to attain the national ambient air quality
standards for ozone by the applicable attainment date, the county shall adopt the control
techniques guidelines issued by the environmental protection agency for the industry
sector.
4. Solvent cleaning operations, including the use of nonaqueous solvents. The
regulations may include the use of low vapor pressure organic solvents, reformulated
lower volatile organic compound content solvents or low volatile organic compound aqueous
material substitutes. The rules adopted pursuant to this paragraph are exempt from the
provisions of sections 49-112 and 49-479.
