TITLE: National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for Aerosol Coatings ; ; AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency ; ; ACTION: Final rule ; ; SUMMARY: This action amends the National Volatile Organic Compound ; Emission Standards for Aerosol Coatings (aerosol coatings reactivity rule), which establishes national reactivity-based emission standards for the aerosol coatings category (aerosol spray paints) under section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act. These amendments add compounds and associated reactivity factors to Table 2--Reactivity Factors based on petitions EPA received from regulated entities, and clarify which volatile organic compounds are to be quantified in compliance determinations.
