Perchloroethylene (PCE) Dry Cleaner
Compliance Calendar
State of Utah
Department of Environmental Quality
Division of Air Quality
WHY IS EPA REGULATING DRY CLEANERS?
The Clean Air Act of 1990 directs the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) to regulate the emissions of 188 chemical compounds
designated as Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs). Perchloroethylene, also
known as “perc”, “pce” or “tetrachloroethylene”, is on the list of HAPs and is the
most commonly used chemical solvent at dry cleaners. In September 1993, the
EPA issued national regulations to control air emissions of “PCE” from dry
cleaners which they revised in July and September 2006. Remember these
rules only apply to dry cleaners using PCE.
IS YOUR BUSINESS AFFECTED?
How the business is affected depends on the date of machinery installation, the
amount of “PCE” purchased each year and the type of machines at the facility.
December 9, 1991 and December 21, 2005 are important dates for these
regulations. When a machine is installed determines applicable rules and the
types of control devices that are required.
If a facility has machines initially installed before December 9, 1991 the machine
will be classified as “existing”. If a facility has machines initially installed on or
after December 9, 1991, the source will be classified as “new”. The amount of
PCE purchased determines the facility size: small area, large area or major.
Small area sources use less than 140 gallons in a year for a dry-to-dry machine
or 200 gallons for a transfer machine.
WHAT REQUIREMENTS APPLY?
✓Air pollution equipment is required for ALL PCE dry cleaning equipment
EXCEPT: (1) transfer machines installed prior to September 23, 1993 and
which use less than 200 gallons per year AND (2) dry-to-dry machines
installed prior to October 9, 1991 and use less than 140 gallons per year.
✓Operate and maintain system according to manufacturer's specifications and
recommendations. Maintain, onsite, a copy of the design specifications and
operating manual for each machine and control device.
✓Refrigerated condensers installed on dryers, dry-to-dry machines or
reclaimers may not vent to the atmosphere while the drum is rotating.
✓Keep machine doors closed at all times - except when transferring clothes.
✓Store all PCE solvent and waste in sealed containers.
✓Drain cartridge filters in their housings or other sealed container for 24 hours
before disposing of them as a hazardous waste.
✓Inspect equipment every week (large sources using 140 gallons or more) or
every two weeks (small sources using less than 140 gallons) for perceptible
leaks, those obvious to sight, smell, or touch, while the dry cleaning system
is operating. ONCE each month the inspection must be conducted with a
hand-held detector/gas analyzer. Record all inspection and repair findings.
✓Repair perceptible leaks within 24 hours. Parts must be ordered within two
working days and installed within five days of receipt. Record all repairs.
IS MONITORING AND RECORDKEEPING REQUIRED?
✓Maintain on-site, for five years, records of inspection dates, name and location
of system components where leaks are found, inspection method, dates of
repair and record of written or verbal part orders. Record “no leaks” or “leak
found”, as applicable and record repair method e.g. “repaired by tightening
nuts” in a maintenance log.
✓Record your PCE purchases in a log and at the first of each month total the
volume purchased in the previous 12 months. Keep purchase receipts and
log on-site for a minimum of five years. If the usage exceeds that reported in
your initial compliance status, your location changes, or additional machines
added, then submit a new Notification of Compliance.
✓For a refrigerated condenser (RC), the primary evaluation method records
and evaluates the high and low pressure readings on the compressor unit.
The alternate method, when no pressure gauges are present: measure and
record weekly the air temperature after the RC. If the RC outlet air
temperature is greater than 45º F (7.2º C) during the end of the dry cycle,
make repairs and adjustments to meet this requirement.
✓For a Carbon adsorber, the amount of PCE vapor in the exhaust and dry
cleaner drum need to be measured and recorded weekly. A colorimetric tube
is acceptable for these measurements. Take exhaust duct PCE
concentration measurement at the end of the last dry cleaning cycle before
carbon is desorbed and make repairs or adjustments if the concentration
exceeds 100 parts per million (ppm). Take drum PCE concentration
measurement at the end of the dry cleaning cycle and make repairs or
adjustments if the concentration exceeds 300 ppm.
PERCHLOROETHYLENE (PCE) DRY CLEANERS FACT SHEET
IS THERE PAPERWORK TO SUBMIT?
All new dry cleaning machinery must have a Notification of Compliance form
submitted within 30 days of startup, including an estimate of PCE usage. An
updated Notification is required when significant changes occur at a facility.
There is a reporting form (rev 12/20086) on the second to last page of this
calendar and it indicates what significant changes prompt a new submittal.
OTHER REGULATIONS
Utah Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control -
[phone]
https://deq.utah.gov/waste-management-and-radiation-
control/hazardous-waste-management-program
Basic, onsite hazardous waste training is also available through
this program.
✓If you generate less than 220 pounds of hazardous waste per month, you
are a Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator. This allows you to
dispose of the hazardous waste at a permitted disposal facility when prior
approval is obtained from the facility owner/operator.
✓If you generate more than 220 pounds of hazardous waste per month, your
facility is more stringently regulated. ALL hazardous waste shipped to a
disposal facility must be manifested. The paperwork must be properly filled
out with the applicable signatures of the generator, transporter and
disposer. You must keep the manifest onsite for a minimum of three years.
Contact the Division for further information if you fall within this category.
✓If ANY of your solid waste contains PCE, it is ALL considered hazardous.
This waste may include still residues, spent cartridges and separator water.
These wastes are an EPA F002 listed hazardous waste.
✓All containers holding hazardous waste must be labeled with the words
"HAZARDOUS WASTE" and must be kept completely closed except when
adding to or taking from a container.
Utah Division of Environmental Response and Remediation -
[phone]
https://deq.utah.gov/division-environmental-response-
remediation
✓Any underground storage tank that holds 110 gallons or more of a petroleum
product or of a CERCLA hazardous substance (e.g. PCE) must be
registered. You will need to register the tanks, pay tank fees and do a one-
time minimum site assessment. Also:
✓The underground tank system must be double walled or have
secondary containment and the owner/operator needs to perform
and keep records of monthly monitoring of the interstitial space.
✓If the tank or piping is made of metal, the system must be
cathodically protected. The cathodic protection system must be
tested every 3 years and results of the last two cathodic protection
tests must be maintained for inspection.
✓If these requirements apply, visit our website for information on leak
detection monitoring requirements.
Utah Division of Water Quality – UPDES Engineering Section
801-536-4300https://deq.utah.gov/division-water-quality
✓Separator water from your dry cleaning system contains PCE. It cannot be
discharged to a sewer or storm sewer system. There are commercially
available misters and evaporators with filters that remove the trace amounts
of PCE before the water is evaporated. Or, the separator water can go into
the sludge bin and be disposed of as hazardous waste.
✓If you have an existing floor drain connected to a septic tank and leach field
or dry well, call us to plan the best course of action to monitor or eliminate
this type of system. This system is NOT allowed in new construction.
✓If your wastewater discharges directly to a ditch or a stream, give us a call
for permit requirements.
✓If wastes from floor cleaning, etc. drain to a floor sump connected to a
municipal water and sewer system, make sure you are aware of and comply
with any pretreatment and cross connection prevention programs. Call your
city or local sewer district for more information.
