                         Existing source is major for PSD for
                         volatile organic compounds

                         Project is a major modification under
                         PSD for NOx and PM-10 and must meet BACT
                         for these pollutants

Sources of Emissions:    Increase allowable usage of natural gas
                         from 880 million cubic feet per year to
                         1600 million cubic feet per year.  The
                         natural gas usage increase is spread
                         across the paint curing ovens, paint
                         booth air supply houses, air pollution
                         control equipment, hot water boilers,
                         and space heaters.

Controlled Emissions Estimate and Control Technology:

     Low NOx Burners is proposed as BACT for NOx and natural gas
     usage as BACT for combustion units.  Water wash or dry
     filter controls are proposed as BACT for PM 10 for coating
     and sanding operations.
