5. When Must an Affected Facility Comply?
Existing boat manufacturing facilities must comply within
3 years of August 22, 2001 or August 22, 2004. New sources
that commence construction after July 14, 2000 must comply
by August 22, 2001 or upon startup, whichever is later. Existing
and new area sources that become major sources after August
22, 2001 must comply within 1 year after becoming a major
source or by August 22, 2004, whichever is later.

Existing
sources using pollution prevention approaches for compliance
will need to make changes in application equipment and
raw materials. US EPA believes these sources need the full
3 year period provided by the CAA to evaluate different
resins, gel coats, carpet and fabric adhesives, or aluminum
recreational boat surface coatings and the effects of these
changes on production processes and product performance.
In addition, US EPA believes that providing the maximum
amount of allowable time will encourage more sources to
use compliant materials rather than emissions averaging,
thereby reducing the amount of records and paperwork needed
to demonstrate initial and continuous compliance.
If an existing source chooses to use an add-on control
device to comply, the full 3 years provided by the CAA
is necessary to allow sufficient time to design, purchase,
install, and work out operational problems that occur in
trying to start up a new control device.
