You may apply any of the compliance options to an individual coating operation or to multiple coating operations as a group or to the entire affected source. You may use different compliance options for different coating operations or at different times on the same coating operation. However, you may not use different compliance options at the same time on the same coating operation. If you switch between compliance options for any coating operation or group of coating operations, you shall document this switch as required by s. NR 465.25 (3) (c), and you shall report it in the next semiannual compliance report required in s. NR 465.25 (2). The compliance options and requirements are as follows:

(1). If you use this compliance option, you shall also demonstrate that all emission capture systems and add-on control devices for the coating operation or operations meet the operating limits required in sub. (3), except for solvent recovery systems for which you conduct liquid-liquid material balances according to s. NR 465.28 (2) (g), and that you meet the work practice standards required in sub. (4). You shall meet all the requirements of s. NR 465.28 (1) to (9) to demonstrate compliance with the emission limits, operating limits, and work practice standards using this option.

NR 465.23(3) (3) What operating limits must I meet?.

NR 465.23(3)(a) (a) For any coating operation on which you use the compliant material option or the emission rate without add-on controls option, you are not required to meet any operating limits.

NR 460.07 (6).

NR 465.23(4) (4) What work practice standards must I meet?.

NR 465.23(4)(a) (a) For any coating operation on which you use the compliant material option or the emission rate without add-on controls option, you are not required to meet any work practice standards.

NR 465.23(4)(b) (b) If you use the emission rate with add-on controls option, you shall develop and implement a work practice plan to minimize organic HAP emissions from the storage, mixing, and conveying of coatings, thinners, and cleaning materials used in, and waste materials generated by, the coating operation or operations for which you use this option; or you shall meet an alternative standard as provided in par.
