| 97-22509 | Air Quality: Revision to Definition of Volatile Organic CompoundsExclusion of Methyl Acetate | Proposed Rule | This action proposes to revise EPA's definition of volatile organic compounds (VOC) for purposes of preparing State implementation plans (SIP's) to attain the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone under title I of the Clean Air Act (Act) and for any Federal implementation plan (FIP) for an ozone nonattainment area. This proposed revision would add methyl acetate to the list of compounds excluded from the definition of VOC on the basis that this compound has negligible contribution to tropospheric ozone formation. This compound has potential for use as a solvent in paints, inks and adhesives. Methyl acetate appears to be promising as a solvent for wood furniture coatings. | 1997-08-25 | 1997 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/08/25/97-22509/air-quality-revision-to-definition-of-volatile-organic-compoundsexclusion-of-methyl-acetate | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-08-25/pdf/97-22509.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | This action proposes to revise EPA's definition of volatile organic compounds (VOC) for purposes of preparing State implementation plans (SIP's) to attain the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone under title I of the Clean Air Act... |
