Title: Revision to the Definition of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) to Exclude Tertiary Butyl Acetate 
Abstract: The definition of VOC is proposed to be revised to add tertiary butyl acetate to the list of negligibly reactive compounds. This is a deregulatory action that will remove tertiary butyl acetate from the necessity to be controlled as a VOC in SIPs for attaining the ozone standard. This is not expected to have a significant impact on small businesses or local governments.
