## Abstract

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving an Alternate Reasonably Available Control Technology (ARACT) for Raytheon TI Systems, Inc. (RTIS). This action results from a request, on January 9, 1997, by the Texas Governor asking for an exemption for RTIS from Texas Regulation V, Section 115.421. This regulation requires that volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the coating of miscellaneous metal parts and products shall not exceed 6.7 pounds per gallon of solids (or 3.5 pounds per gallon of coating) delivered to the application system. The approval is granted based on the technical and economic infeasibility of meeting 115.421 and additional control requirements specified in the State submittal.
