No. 41218 (5-year Review): Rule R307-343. Emissions Standards for Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations
DAR File No.: 41218
Filed: 01/27/2017 09:01:44 AMNOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Subsection 19-2-104(1)(a) authorizes the Air Quality Board to make rules "regarding the control, abatement, and prevention of air pollution from all sources and the establishment of the maximum quantity of air contaminants that may be emitted by any air contaminants source." Rule R307-343 does this by requiring that certain wood furniture manufactures use coatings that are compliant with the Volatile Organic Compound content limits found in Section R307-343-4.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
The Division has not received any comments on this rule since the last five-year review.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
Rule R307-343 limits the emissions of volatile organic compounds, a precursor to ozone, from wood furniture manufacturers in ozone nonattainment and maintenance areas. This rule is needed to ensure that emissions of air pollution do not harm public health. This rule outlines emissions standards for wood furniture manufacturing operations and should be continued. This rule is part of a proactive strategy to ensure that Salt Lake and Davis counties continue to meet the ozone standard.
