40 CFR Part 63, Subpart VVVV, applies to owners and operators of boat manufacturing facilities. The regulation applies to new or existing boat manufacturing facilities that are a major source of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). This regulation covers resin and gel coat operations at fiberglass boat manufacturers, paint and coating operations at aluminum boat manufacturers, and carpet and fabric adhesive operation at all boat manufacturing facility. Each respondent would be required to submit an initial notification that the source is subject to the standard. Semiannual reports of excess emissios are also required. Additional records and reports would depend on how the owner or operator chooses to comply with the standards. Respondents who choose to comply by limiting the HAP content of their fiberglass or aluminum boat manufacturing processes and operations would monitor and record the monthly consumption of material. Respondents who choose to use an enclosure and add-on control device would submit a control device performance test report, including operating ranges for monitored parameters; and annual start-up, shutdown, and malfunction reports.
