Contact the applicable U.S. EPA Regional Office to find out if implementation and enforcement of this subpart is delegated to a State, local, or Tribal agency.
(b) In delegating implementation and enforcement authority of this subpart to a State, local, or Tribal agency under subpart E of this part, the authorities contained in paragraph (c) of this section are retained by the Administrator of U.S. EPA and cannot be transferred to the State, local, or Tribal agency.
(c) The authorities that cannot be delegated to State, local, or Tribal agencies are as specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (4) of this section.
(1) Approval of alternatives to the requirements in Sec. Sec. 63.780 through 63.781, and 63.783 through 63.784.
(2) Approval of major alternatives to test methods under Sec. 63.7(e)(2)(ii) and (f), as defined in Sec. 63.90, and as required in this subpart.
(3) Approval of major alternatives to monitoring under Sec. 63.8(f), as defined in Sec. 63.90, and as required in this subpart.
(4) Approval of major alternatives to recordkeeping and reporting under Sec. 63.10(f), as defined in Sec. 63.90, and as required in this subpart. [68 FR 37353, June 23, 2003]

of limits may be used for the compliance procedure described in Sec.
63.785(c)(1), but only the limits expressed in units of g/L solids
(nonvolatiles) shall be used for the compliance procedures described
Sec. 63.785(c) (2) through (4).\b\ VOC (including exempt compounds listed as HAP) shall be used as a
surrogate for VOHAP for those compliance procedures described in Sec.
63.785(c) (1) through (3).\c\ To convert from g/L to lb/gal, multiply by (3.785 L/gal)(1/453.6 lb/
g) or 1/120. For compliance purposes, metric units define the
standards.\d\ VOHAP limits expressed in units of mass of VOHAP per volume of
solids were derived from the VOHAP limits expressed in units of mass
of VOHAP per volume of coating assuming the coatings contain no water
or exempt compounds and that the volumes of all components within a
coating are additive.\e\ These limits apply during cold-weather time periods, as defined in
Sec. 63.782. Cold-weather allowances are not given to coatings in
categories that permit less than 40 percent volume solids
(nonvolatiles). Such coatings are subject to the same limits
regardless of weather conditions. [60 FR 64336, Dec. 15, 1995, as amended at 61 FR 66228, Dec. 17, 1996; 76 FR 72070, Nov. 21, 2011]

63.788(b)(4).\c\ OPTION 4: the recordkeeping and reporting requirements of Option 4 are identical to those of Options 1, 2,
or 3, depending on whether and how thinners are used. However, when using Option 4, the term ``VOHAP'' shall
be used in lieu of the term ``VOC,'' and the owner or operator shall record and report the Administrator-
approved VOHAP test method or certification procedure.\d\ Major sources that intend to become area sources by the compliance date may, in lieu of submitting an
implementation plan, choose to submit a statement of intent as specified in Sec. 63.787(b)(4). [60 FR 64336, Dec. 15, 1995, as amended at 76 FR 72071, Nov. 21, 2011]
