Sec. 60.435  Test methods and procedures.

    (a) The owner or operator of any affected facility using solvent-
borne ink systems shall determine the VOC content of the raw inks and 
related coatings used at the affected facility by:
    (1) Analysis using Method 24A of routine weekly samples of raw ink 
and related coatings in each respective storage tank; or
    (2) Analysis using Method 24A of samples of each shipment of all 
purchased raw inks and related coatings; or
    (3) Determination of the VOC content from the formulation data 
supplied by the ink manufacturer with each shipment of raw inks and 
related coatings used.
    (b) The owner or operator of any affected facility using solvent-
borne ink systems shall use the results of verification analyses by 
Method 24A to determine compliance when discrepancies with ink 
manufacturers' formulation data occur.
    (c) The owner or operator of any affected facility using waterborne 
ink systems shall determine the VOC and water content of raw inks and 
related coatings used at the affected facility by:
    (1) Determination of the VOC and water content from the formulation 
data supplied by the ink manufacturer with each shipment of purchased 
raw inks and related coatings used; or
    (2) Analysis of samples of each shipment of purchased raw inks and 
related coatings using a test method approved by the Administrator in 
accordance with Sec. 60.8(b).
    (d) The owner or operator of any affected facility shall determine 
the density of raw inks, related coatings, and VOC solvents by:
    (1) Making a total of three determinations for each liquid sample at 
specified temperatures using the procedure outlined in ASTM D1475-60, 
80, or 90, which is incorporated by reference. It is available from the 
American Society of Testing and Materials, 1916 Race Street, 
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103. It is also available for inspection at 
the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). For information 
on the availability of this material at NARA, call 202-741-6030, or go

approved by the Director of the Federal Register on November 8, 1982. 
This material is incorporated as it exists on the date of approval and a 
notice of any change in these materials will be published in the Federal 
Register. The temperature

and density is recorded as the arithmetic average of the three 
determinations; or
    (2) Using literature values, at specified temperatures, acceptable 
to the Administrator.
    (e) If compliance is determined according to Sec. 60.433 (e), (f), 
or (g), the existing as well as affected facilities are subject to the 
requirements of paragraphs (a) through (d) of this section.
