Title: ●National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Area Source Standards for Paints and Allied Products Manufacturing 
Abstract: Section 112 (k) of the Clean Air Act requires the development of standards for area sources that account for 90 percent of the emissions in urban areas of the 30 urban hazardous air pollutants (HAP) listed in the Integrated Urban Air Toxics Strategy. The Integrated Urban Air Toxics Strategy lists paints and allied products manufacturing as an area source category. This action will revise the definition of target HAP-containing material to add, "and greater than 1.0 percent for noncarcinogens." The definition already indicates that target HAP-containing material includes carcinogens present in amounts greater than 0.1 percent. The level for noncarcinogens was inadvertently omitted from the rule. Inclusion of 1.0 percent and 0.1 percent levels for noncarcinogens and carcinogens, respectively, is consistent with the TRI and OSHA Hazard Communications levels and other recent area source rules.
