119.03 [Comment: For dates and availability of non-regulatory government publications, publications of recognized organizations and associations, federal rules, and federal statutory provisions referenced in this rule, see paragraph (JJ) of this rule titled "referenced materials."] (A) Except as otherwise provided in this rule, the definitions in rule 3745-15-01 of the Administrative Code apply to this chapter. (B) As used in this chapter: (1) "AAMA" means the American architectural manufacturer association. (2) "ASTM" means the American society for testing and materials also known as ASTM international. (3) "Btu" means British thermal unit. (4) "Btu per hour-foot-degree-Fahrenheit" means British thermal unit per hour-foot-degree-Fahrenheit. (5) "CTG" means control technique guideline. A CTG is a USEPA guidance document that triggers a responsibility under Section 182(b)(2) of the Clean Air Act for states to submit reasonably available control technology (RACT) rules for stationary sources of VOC emissions as part of their state implementation plans. Each CTG contains a presumptive norm for RACT for a specific category, based on USEPA's evaluation of that category. The following rules promulgated by the Ohio EPA cover categories for which USEPA has issued a CTG: (a) Paragraphs (C) to (R), (T), (U) to (Z), (BB) to (EE), (DDD) and (EEE) of rule 3745-21-09 of the Administrative Code. (b) Rules 3745-21-13 , 3745-21-15, 3745-21-19, 3745-21-20, 3745-21-22, 3745-21-23, 3745-21-24, and 3745-21-26 to 3745-21-29 of the Administrative Code. (6) "DC" means direct current. (7) "Day" means a period of twenty-four consecutive hours beginning at twelve a.m., or beginning at a time consistent with a facility's operating schedule.

A source-specific requirement may be in the form of the following, where applicable: (i) An emissions limitation, expressed as an emissions rate stated in quantity of VOC per unit (e.g., pounds VOC per gallon of coating), but not in terms of mass per time (e.g., pounds per hour).

For purposes of determining compliance with emission limits, VOC will be measured by the approved test methods. Where such a method also inadvertently measures compounds with negligible photochemical reactivity, an owner or operator may exclude these negligibly reactive compounds when determining compliance with an emission standard. (C) As used in rule 3745-21-07 of the Administrative Code pertaining to the control of emissions of organic materials from stationary sources: (1) [Reserved.] (2) "Effluent water separator" means any tank, box, sump, or other container in which any volatile photochemically reactive material floating on or entrained or contained in water entering such tank, box, sump, or other container is physically separated and removed from such water prior to outfall, drainage, or recovery of such water.
