NR 465.21 What this subchapter covers. NR 465.21(1)
(1)
What is the purpose of this subchapter?. This subchapter establishes national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants for large appliance surface coating facilities. This subchapter also establishes requirements to demonstrate initial and continuous compliance with the emission limitations.
NR 465.21 Note
Note: This subchapter is based on the federal regulations contained in
40 CFR part 63 Subpart NNNN, created July 23, 2002.
NR 465.21(2)(a)(a) You are subject to this subchapter if you own or operate a facility that applies coatings to large appliance parts or products, and is a major source, is located at a major source or is part of a major source of emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP), except as provided in
par. (d). A major source of HAP emissions is any stationary source or group of stationary sources located within a contiguous area and under common control that emits or has the potential to emit any single HAP at a rate of 9.07 Mg (10 tons) or more per year or any combination of HAP at a rate of 22.68 Mg (25 tons) or more per year. You are not subject to this subchapter if your large appliance surface coating facility is located at, or is part of, an area source of HAP emissions. An area source of HAP emissions is any stationary source or group of stationary sources located within a contiguous area and under common control that is not a major source.
NR 465.21(2)(b)
(b) The large appliance surface coating source category includes any facility engaged in the surface coating of a large appliance part or product. Large appliance parts and products include cooking equipment; refrigerators, freezers, and refrigerated cabinets and cases; laundry equipment; dishwashers, trash compactors, and water heaters; and heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) units, air-conditioning units except those in motor vehicles, air-conditioning and heating combination units, comfort furnaces, and electric heat pumps. Specifically excluded are heat transfer coils and large commercial and industrial chillers.
NR 465.21(2)(c)
(c) The large appliance surface coating activities and equipment to which this subchapter applies are all of the following:
NR 465.21(2)(c)2.
2. Preparation of a coating for application, e.g., mixing in thinners and other components.
NR 465.21(2)(c)3.
3. Application of a coating to large appliance parts and products using, for example, spray guns or dip tanks.
NR 465.21(2)(c)4.
4. Application of porcelain enamel, powder coating and asphalt interior soundproofing coating.

8. Conveying of coatings, thinners and cleaning materials from storage areas to mixing areas or coating application areas, either manually such as in buckets or by automated means such as by transfer through pipes using pumps.
NR 465.21(2)(c)9.
9. Handling and conveying of waste materials generated by coating operations.
NR 465.21(2)(d)
(d) This subchapter does not apply to any of the following:
NR 465.21(2)(d)1.
1. The surface coating of large appliance parts such as metal or plastic handles, hinges or fasteners that have a wider use beyond large appliances.
NR 465.21(2)(d)2.
2. The surface coating of large appliances conducted for the purpose of repairing or maintaining large appliances used by a facility and not for commerce unless organic HAP emissions from the surface coating itself are as high as the rates specified in
par. (a).
NR 465.21(2)(d)3.
3. The surface coating of heat transfer coils or large commercial and industrial chillers.
NR 465.21(2)(d)4.
4. Research or laboratory facilities; janitorial, building, and facility maintenance operations; hobby shops operated for noncommercial purposes or coating applications using hand-held non-refillable aerosol containers.
NR 465.21(2)(d)5.
5. Processes involving metal plating or phosphating of a substrate.
NR 465.21(2)(e)
(e) If you own or operate an affected source that is subject to this subchapter and at the same affected source you also perform surface coating subject to any other national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP), you may choose for the affected source to comply with only one NESHAP. In order to choose this alternative, the total mass of organic HAP emissions from all surface coating operations in the affected source shall be less than or equal to the total mass of organic HAP emissions that would result if it complied separately with all applicable NESHAP. You shall make this comparison for the initial compliance period and report it in the notification of compliance status as required in
s. NR 465.25 (1) (b) 10. and in the notification of compliance status required by the other NESHAP. If you choose this alternative, your demonstration of compliance with the other NESHAP constitutes compliance with this subchapter.
NR 465.21(3)
(3) What parts of my plant does this subchapter cover?. NR 465.21(3)(a)(a) This subchapter applies to each new, reconstructed and existing affected source.
