Steps

  1. Fetch the current Rule 1113 Table of Standards page at aqmd.gov (rules-compliance/compliance/vocs/architectural-coatings/tos).
  2. Locate the 'Traffic Coatings' category (100 g/L current limit) and 'Driveway Sealer' category (50 g/L current limit).
  3. Compare both against the federal 150 g/L traffic-marking-coatings ceiling to confirm the regional rule is stricter.
  4. Verify the product's SDS/technical data sheet VOC figure against the applicable SCAQMD category, not the federal one, for any job inside SCAQMD's jurisdiction (most of LA, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties).
  5. Check the small-container exemption status for the category, since several exemptions were phased out effective February 5, 2016.
