Surface Coating VOC Regulations - Florida

Q. Do you know if Florida required lower VOC-content limits than the national EPA standard? Is there a website where I can find VOC-content limits by jurisdiction?

A. To the best of my knowledge the Florida regulations are not more stringent than those of the EPA, but you can check wth the state offices at http://www.epa.gov/oar/offices.html. Also, you might want to review the following site http://www.dep.state.fl.us/air/rules/fac/62-210.pdf which covers the rules themselves.
