Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources Cold Cleaning Machine Operations

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 continuo
