In addition to the definitions set forth in 40 CFR part 401, the following definitions apply to this part:

(a) “Coil” means a strip of basis material rolled into a roll for handling.

(b) “Coil coating ” means the process of converting basis material strip into coated stock. Usually cleaning, conversion coating, and painting are performed on the basis material. This regulation covers processes which perform any two or more of the three operations.

(c) “Basis material” means the coiled strip which is processed.

(d) “Area processed” means the area actually exposed to process solutions. Usually this includes both sides of the metal strip.

(e) “Steel basis material” means cold rolled steel, hot rolled steel, and chrome, nickel and tin coated steel which are processed in coil coating.

(f) “Galvanized basis material” means zinc coated steel, galvalum, brass and other copper base strip which is processed in coil coating.

(g) “Aluminum basis material” means aluminum, aluminum alloys and aluminum coated steels which are processed in coil coating.

(h) The term “can” means a container formed from sheet metal and consisting of a body and two ends or a body and a top.

(i) The term “canmaking” means the manufacturing process or processes used to manufacture a can from a basic metal.

(j) The term “Total Toxic Organics (TTO)” shall mean the sum of the mass of each of the following toxic organic compounds which are found at a concentration greater than 0.010 mg/1.

1,1,1-Trichloroethane 1,1-Dichloroethane 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane Bis (2-chloroethyl) ether Chloroform 1,1-Dichloroethylene Methylene chloride (dichloromethane) Pentachlorophenol Bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate Butyl benzyl-phthalate Di-N-butyl phthalate Phenanthrene Tetrachloroethylene Toluene [47 FR 54244, Dec. 1, 1982, as amended at 48 FR 52399, Nov. 17, 1983]

The following special monitoring requirements apply to all facilities controlled by this regulation.

(a) Periodic analyses for cyanide are not required when both of the following conditions are met:

(1) The first wastewater sample taken in each calendar year has been analyzed and found to contain less than 0.07 mg/l cyanide

(2) The owner or operator of the coil coating facility certifies in writing to the POTW authority or permit issuing authority that cyanide is not used in the coil coating process.

(b) The “monthly average” regulatory values shall be the basis for the monthly average discharge limits in direct discharge permits and for pretreatment standards. Compliance with the monthly discharge limit is required regardless of the number of samples analyzed and averaged.

(c) The analytical method required for determination of petroleum hydrocarbons (non-polar material) is given under the listing for “oil and grease” at 40 CFR 136.3(a), Table IB and must be used after December 31, 2005.

(d) The owner or operator of any canmaking facility subject to the provisions of this regulation shall advise the permit issuing authority or POTW authority and the EPA Office of Water Regulations and Standards, Washington, DC 20460 whenever it has been decided that the plant will manufacture cans from an aluminum alloy containing less than 1.0 percent manganese. Such notification shall be made in writing, not less than 30 days in advance of the scheduled production and shall provide the chemical analysis of the alloy and the expected period of use.

(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 2040-0033) [47 FR 54244, Dec. 1, 1982, as amended at 48 FR 52399, Nov. 17, 1983; 49 FR 14104, Apr. 10, 1984; 50 FR 4515, Jan. 31, 1985; 72 FR 11249, Mar. 12, 2007]
