Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources Cold Cleaning 
Machine Operations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Withdrawal of proposal; notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action proposes to withdraw the June 11, 1980, proposal 
and proposes a new 40 CFR part 60, subpart JJ consisting of 
Secs. 60.360 through 60.363 to cover those volatile organic compounds 
(VOC) used in cold cleaning machine operations that are not covered 
under 40 CFR part 63, subpart T.
    The proposed standard would limit emissions of VOC from new, 
modified, and reconstructed cold cleaning machines with solvent-air 
interface areas greater than or equal to 1.8 square meters (19 square 
feet). Cold cleaning machines are units specifically designed to clean 
parts with liquid solvent at a temperature below the solvent boiling 
point.
    The proposed standards implement section 111 of the Act and are 
based on the Administrator's determination that cold cleaning machines 
belong to a category of sources that cause, or contribute significantly 
to, air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public 
health or welfare. The intent of the standards is to require new, 
modified, and reconstructed cold cleaning machines with surface areas 
larger than or equal to 1.8 square meters (19 square feet) to control 
emissions to the level achievable by the best demonstrated system of 
continuous emission reduction, taking into consideration the cost of 
achieving such emission reduction, and any non-air quality health, and 
environmental impact and energy requirements.

DATES: Comments. Comments must be received on or before November 8, 
1994.
    Public Hearing. If anyone contacts the EPA requesting to speak at a 
public hearing by September 30, 1994. If anyone contacts the EPA

I. Introduction

A. Background

    On June 11, 1980, the EPA proposed standards of performance for 
organic solvent cleaners (45 FR 39765). The proposed standards would 
have limited emissions of volatile organic compounds, and 
trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene, methylene chloride, 1,1,1-
trichloroethane, and trichlorotrifluoroethane from new, modified, and 
reconstructed organic solvent cleaners. The EPA also proposed that 
standards be developed under section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act for 
the control of emissions from existing facilities of the five 
halogenated organic solvents listed above. The applicability date for 
that proposal was deferred (46 FR 22768, April 21, 1981) pending notice 
of a later applicability date in the Federal Register. That later 
notice was never published.
    Since the standards of performance of organic solvent cleaners were 
proposed (45 FR 39765), a national emission standard for hazardous air 
pollutants for halogenated solvent cleaners has been proposed and is 
scheduled for promulgation in November 1994 (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
T). The subpart T standards do not cover nonhalogenated volatile 
organic compounds often used in cold cleaning machine operations (e.g., 
mineral spirits, Stoddard solvents, naphthas).
    Therefore, today's action proposes to withdraw the June 11, 1980, 
proposal and proposes a new 40 CFR part 60, subpart JJ consisting of 
Secs. 60.360 through 60.363 to cover those volatile organic compounds 
(VOC) used in cold cleaning machine operations that are not covered 
under 40 CFR part 63, subpart T.

B. Legal Authority and Applicability

    New source performance standards (NSPS) implement section 111 of 
the Clean Air Act (Act). The NSPS are issued for categories of sources 
that the Administrator determines cause, or contribute significantly 
to, air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public 
health or welfare. They apply to new stationary sources of emissions, 
i.e., sources whose construction, reconstruction, or modification 
begins after a standard for them is proposed.
    An NSPS requires these sources to control emissions to the level 
achievable by ``best demonstrated technology,'' or ``BDT,'' which is 
described for equipment and work practice standards as follows:

    * * * The best technological system of continuous emission 
reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of achieving 
such emission reduction, and any non-air quality health and 
environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator 
determines has been adequately demonstrated. [Section 111(h)(1)].

    This notice of proposed rulemaking is applicable to owners or 
operators of immersion cold cleaning machines that are new, modified, 
or reconstructed after September 9, 1994. Specifically, this proposed 
rulemaking applies to owners or operators of immersion cold cleaning 
machines with a solvent-air interface area larger than or equal to 1.8 
square meters (m\2\) (19 square feet (ft\2\)) that use VOC solvents. 
The selection of this level is discussed in section I.C.
    Under section 111(a)(5) of the Act, an owner or operator is any 
person who owns, leases, operates, controls, or supervises a stationary 
source. Under section 111(a)(3) of the Act, a stationary source is any 
building, structure, facility, or installation that emits or may emit 
any air pollutant.
    There are two basic types of cold cleaning machines used in cold 
cleaning machine operations: immersion and remote reservoir cold 
cleaning machines. An immersion cold cleaning machine is a cold 
cleaning machine that is used to clean parts by submerging them in 
solvent. Cleaning with sprayed solvent also occurs in some operations. 
A remote reservoir machine is a cold cleaning machine that cleans parts 
by pumping solvent through a spray hose to a sink-like work area. The 
solvent immediately drains back into an enclosed container through a 
small opening. Cold cleaning machines are typically machines that are 
installed at a particular location for a period of time that may be 
several months to several years. Once a machine is manufactured, the 
machine's configuration does not change from location to location. 
Although the machine does not emit any air pollutant until it is filled 
with solvent and actually used for cleaning, it will emit pollutants 
once it is actually used. Therefore, a cold cleaning machine becomes a 
stationary source when it is initially positioned at the place where it 
will first be used, which is the place where it may first emit VOC. The 
machine remains a stationary source throughout its useful life, even 
though the machine may eventually be installed at a number of different 
locations.
    Upon proposal of an NSPS, a new source is subject to the 
promulgated standard. For cold cleaning machines, this means a source 
is subject to the final NSPS requirements, once they are promulgated, 
when it is positioned at the location where it will first be used, even 
if it is subsequently moved to a different location prior to 
promulgation of the final NSPS. A cold cleaning machine is also subject 
to NSPS requirements when it is modified or reconstructed after 
September 9, 1994. The EPA solicits comments on this approach to 
regulating sources that may change location during their useful life.

C. Overview of Proposed Rule

    The proposed standards limit the emissions of VOC from new, 
modified, and reconstructed immersion cold cleaning machines. The VOC 
solvents are used to clean metal, plastic, fiberglass, and other types 
of material. The proposed standard is a combination of equipment and 
work practice requirements as authorized under section 111(h).
    Under the Act there are two alternatives available for establishing 
NSPS for stationary sources. Section 111(b) provides for establishing 
emission limitations or percentage reductions in emissions from these 
sources. Section 111(h) provides that the EPA may promulgate design 
equipment, work practice, or operational standards or combination 
thereof, when emission limitations or percentage reduction in emissions 
are not feasible. Under section 111(h), the standards prescribed 
require new, modified, and reconstructed cold cleaning machines to use 
the best technological system of continuous emission reduction, taking 
into consideration cost, non-air quality health and environmental 
impact, and energy requirements that has been adequately demonstrated.
    The emissions from immersion cold cleaning machines are fugitive, 
that is, they are not emitted from a stack or similar opening; 
therefore, the methods for measuring solvent loss are impractical 
because of the length of time required to accurately determine solvent 
losses and the disruption in cleaning operations that would be 
necessary in order to take measurements. Therefore, the EPA has 
determined that it is not feasible to enforce emission limitations or 
percentage reductions in emissions for immersion cold cleaning 
machines. For these reasons, an equipment and work practice standard 
under section 111(h) has been selected. The EPA solicits comments on 
this approach and whether other types of standards would be feasible.
    The proposed cold cleaning equipment standards for cold cleaning 
machines include covers, raised freeboards, solvent pump pressure 
design limits, and labels specifying work practice requirements. The 
EPA believes work practices for cold cleaning machines are required to 
assure the maximum effectiveness of a specific piece of control 
equipment, and will further reduce solvent emissions. These proposed 
standards are all pollution prevention techniques because they minimize 
the solvent vapor loss from the machine and encourage reuse of solvent.
    Batch and in-line cold cleaning machines using halogenated HAP 
solvents are regulated by the halogenated solvent cleaner NESHAP, 
scheduled for promulgation in November 1994 (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
T). The proposed NSPS regulations would affect owners and operators of 
new immersion cold cleaning machines with a solvent-air interface 
greater than or equal to 1.8 m\2\ (19 ft\2\) that use VOC solvents or 
solvent blends that are not covered by the halogenated solvent cleaner 
NESHAP. Because lessors and lessees are included in the definition of 
owner or operator, they are also affected by the NSPS.
    A summary of the proposed equipment and work practice standards is 
presented in table 1. An owner or operator of a cold cleaning machine 
subject to the NSPS would be required to comply with the equipment 
standard and associated work practices. The EPA solicits comment on 
these equipment standards and work practices and whether there are any 
additional measures that should be included.

    The EPA established these standards based on an evaluation of BDT. 
The EPA determined that BDT for machines with solvent-air interface 
areas of less than 1.8 m\2\ (19 ft2) was equivalent to the 
equipment design in existence in the absence of an NSPS. Existing cold 
cleaning machines smaller than 1.8 m\2\ (19 ft2) were determined 
to be at BDT; and no work practice or monitoring, reporting, or 
recordkeeping is warranted because the cost of such requirements would 
be unreasonable with little or no emission reduction benefit. The EPA 
determined that BDT for machines with solvent-air interface areas of 
1.8 m\2\ (19 ft2) or greater included additional requirements. 
These requirements include work practice requirements, as well as 
reporting requirements. These requirements were considered to be 
warranted because the cost of such requirements for a cleaning machine 
at this size would be reasonable given the potential emission reduction 
($2,240/Mg [$2,040/ton]). The cost effectiveness of control for 
cleaning machines with solvent-air interface areas greater than 1.8 
m\2\ (19 ft2) is further reduced. The EPA solicits comments on the 
selection and appropriateness of the 1.8 m\2\ (19 ft2) solvent-air 
interface area applicability cut off.
    Compliance with the proposed standards would be determined through 
an initial notification report from the owner or operator demonstrating 
equipment standard compliance. Information supporting compliance 
equivalence for equipment standard requirements may be provided by the 
manufacturers. Enforcement of the work practices is through inspections 
by enforcement personnel. Reporting requirements also include an annual 
report of equipment standard continued compliance. The EPA solicits 
comment on the suitability of these compliance provisions.
    The EPA is proposing to exempt cold cleaning machines located at 
nonmajor sources from 40 CFR 70.3 (b)(2) operating permit requirements. 
This proposed exemption has been included because it was determined 
that the permitting process could be burdensome for owners or operators 
of cold cleaning machines that are not themselves major sources and are 
not located at a major source. In addition, cold cleaning machines may 
change location often, with permitting thereby increasing the 
administrative burden on the permitting authority without providing 
significant additional environmental benefit.

D. Solicitation of Comments

    The EPA specifically requests comment on the following issues:
    1. As discussed in section I.C., the EPA solicits comments on the 
selection and appropriateness of the 1.8 m\2\ (19 ft2) solvent-air 
interface area applicability cut off. Specifically, the EPA requests 
comments on the reasonableness of setting standards for cleaning 
machines smaller than 1.8 m\2\ (19 ft2).
    2. As discussed in section I.B., the EPA solicits comments on the 
proposed approach to regulating sources that may change location during 
their useful life.
    3. As discussed in section I.C., the EPA is proposing regulations 
that consist of a combination of equipment and work practice standards 
that allow for the best emission control and for enforceability. The 
EPA solicits comments on this approach and whether other types of 
standards would be feasible.
    4. As discussed in section I.C., the EPA solicits comment on the 
proposed equipment standards and work practices and whether there are 
any additional measures that should be included.
    5. As discussed in section I.C., the EPA solicits comment on the 
suitability of the reporting compliance provision requirements.
    6. The proposed rule includes a requirement that a facility 
maintain a windspeed below 40 meters per minute (132 feet per minute), 
unless the facility can demonstrate that a higher windspeed is 
necessary to meet the Occupational Safety and Health Administration 
(OSHA) ventilation requirements contained in 29 CFR 1910.94(d)(3) or 
any updated version of this section, or any other OSHA standard that 
sets a minimum ventilation rate. The EPA does not believe that any 
situation would exist that would require the use of increased drafts to 
meet the OSHA ventilation requirements.
    The OSHA ventilation requirements for open surface tanks contained 
in 29 CFR part 1910 are only one of a number of occupational worker 
exposure control measures presented. Other control measures presented 
include tank covers, foams, beads, chips, or other materials floating 
on the tank surface that confine gases. Even if an owner or operator 
chooses to use ventilation, the ventilation requirements presented in 
table G-15 of 29 CFR 1910.94(d)(4)(iii) for most open tanks are below 
40 meters per minute (132 feet per minute).
    There are ventilation requirements for certain hazardous class of 
compounds used in certain tank sizes that exceed 40 meters per minute 
(132 feet per minute) (i.e., 150 feet per minute [46 meters per 
minute]). However, this 150 feet per minute (46 meters per minute) is 
measured at the lip of the exhaust hood and the proposed regulation 
draft limit is measured between 1 and 2 meters (3.3 and 3.6 feet) 
upwind of the tank at the same elevation as the tank lip. The EPA does 
not believe that a 150 feet per minute (46 meters per minute) measured 
at the face of the exhaust hood is likely to translate into a 
ventilation rate higher than 40 meters per minute (132 feet per minute) 
measured upwind at the same elevation as the tank lip. However, the EPA 
has included the allowance demonstration requirement to avoid any 
possible conflicting requirements. The EPA solicits comment and data on 
situations where the EPA windspeed requirement might conflict with a 
OSHA requirement.
    The following comments on the regulatory approach are requested in 
the Background Information/Basis and Purpose Document (see ADDRESSES).
    1. In determining the regulatory baseline emissions for the cold 
cleaning operations source, it was assumed that the distribution of 
cleaning machines would be proportionate to population density. The EPA 
solicits comment with supporting information and data on another method 
that would yield an alternative estimate.
    2. In determining the regulatory baseline emissions for the cold 
cleaning operations source, it was assumed that the percent of 
population in attainment and nonattainment areas is equivalent to the 
percent of cleaners in attainment and nonattainment areas. The EPA 
solicits comment with supporting information and data on another method 
that would yield an alternative estimate.
    3. The EPA determined, based on existing data, that increasing the 
drainage time of a part from 5 to 15 seconds can reduce overall solvent 
emissions from cold cleaning machines by about 10 percent. Although no 
data is readily available on emission reductions associated with the 
other work practices listed above, it is estimated that these 
techniques along with the drainage requirements can reduce overall 
emissions by about 15 percent. The EPA solicits comment and data on 
this assumption. The EPA specifically requests available emission 
reduction data associated with work practices.

II. Public Participation

A. Written Comments

    The EPA seeks full public participation in arriving at its final 
decisions, and strongly encourages comments on all aspects of this 
proposal from all interested parties. Whenever applicable, full 
supporting data and detailed analysis should be submitted to allow the 
EPA to make maximum use of the comments. All comments should be 
directed to the EPA Air Docket, Docket No. A-94-08. Comments on this 
notice will be accepted until the date specified in DATES.
    Commenters wishing to submit proprietary information for 
consideration should clearly distinguish such information from other 
comments, and clearly label it ``Confidential Business Information.'' 
Submissions containing such proprietary information should be sent 
directly to the contact person listed above, and not to the public 
docket, to ensure that proprietary information is not inadvertently 
placed in the docket. Information covered by such a claim of 
confidentiality will be disclosed by the EPA only to the extent allowed 
and by the procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2. If no claim of 
confidentiality accompanies the submission when it is received by the 
EPA, it may be made available to the public without further notice to 
the commenter.

B. Public Hearing

    Any affected person desiring to present testimony at the public 
hearing (see DATES) is asked to notify the contact person listed above 
at least seven days prior to the day of the public hearing. The contact 
person should also be provided an estimate of the time required for the 
presentation of the testimony and notified of any need for audio/visual 
equipment. A sign-up sheet will be available at the registration table 
the morning of the hearing for scheduling the order of testimony. The 
EPA suggests that sufficient copies of the statement or material to be 
presented be brought to the hearing for distribution to the audience. 
In addition, it would be helpful to receive an advance copy of any 
statement or material to be presented at the hearing prior to the 
scheduled hearing date. All materials submitted will be made a part of 
the official record for this rulemaking.
    The hearing will be conducted informally, and technical rules of 
evidence will not apply. Written transcripts of the hearing will be 
made available for public inspection and copying during normal working 
hours at the EPA's Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center in 
Washington, DC (see ADDRESSES section of this preamble).

III. Statutory Authority

    The statutory authority for this proposal is provided by section 
111 of the Act: 42 U.S.C. 7411.

IV. Administrative Requirements

A. Executive Order 12866

    Under Executive Order 12866 (FR 51735 (October 4, 1993)), the EPA 
must determine whether a regulation is ``significant'' and therefore 
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and the 
requirements of the Executive Order. The order defines ``significant 
regulatory action'' as one that is likely to result in a rule that may: 
(1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or 
adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of the 
economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public 
health or safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or 
communities, (2) create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere 
with an action taken or planned by another agency, (3) materially alter 
the budgetary impact of entitlement, grants, user fees, or loan 
programs, or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof, or (4) 
raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the 
President's priorities, or the principles set forth in the Executive 
Order.
    Pursuant to the terms of Executive Order 12866, the OMB determined 
that this rule is a ``significant'' regulatory action and has thereby 
been reviewed by the OMB.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires the 
EPA to consider potential impacts of proposed regulations on small 
``entities.'' If a preliminary analysis indicates that a proposed 
regulation would have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities, a regulatory flexibility analysis must be 
prepared.
    For the variety of directly affected industry sectors, the Small 
Business Administration's definition of small entity is independently 
owned and operated companies ranging from less than 500 to 1,000 
employees in the manufacturing sectors, and less than $3.5 million in 
sales in the automotive service sectors. An estimate of the number of 
small businesses that would be directly affected by the proposed 
standards could not be feasibly obtained; however, a majority of the 
companies in the affected sectors are likely to be small businesses.
    Economic impacts were estimated based on small, independently owned 
and operated model facilities. As stated in the accompanying ``Basis 
and Purpose'' document summarizing economic impacts, the impact of the 
proposed rule on these entities is likely to be insignificant in terms 
of changes in demand, changes in expansion plans and employment, and 
changes in profitability. Based on these analysis results it is 
reasonable to conclude that small entities, regardless of their number, 
are not significantly affected.
    Pursuant to the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 605(b), I hereby certify 
that this proposed rule, if promulgated, will not have a significant 
impact on a substantial number of small entities.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The information collection requirements in this proposed rule have 
been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the 
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. An 
Information Collection document has been prepared by the EPA (ICR. No. 
1707.01) and a copy may be obtained from Sandy Farmer, Information 
Policy Branch, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Mail Code 2136, 
401 M Street, SW., Washington DC 20460, or by calling (202) 260-2740.
    This collection of information has an estimated annual reporting 
burden per respondent of 1.2 hours. This burden is 0.5 hours less than 
the burden used in the regulatory analysis. This burden includes time 
for reviewing instructions and completing the required reports.
    Send comments regarding the burden estimate or any other aspects of 
this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this 
burden to: Chief Information Policy Branch, Mail Code 2136, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC 
20460, and to the Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC 
20503, marked ``Attention: Desk Officer for EPA.'' The final rule will 
respond to any OMB or public comments on the information collection 
requirements contained in this proposal.
