  • Rule 112.  As used in these rules:

    (a)       "Light-duty truck" means any motor vehicle which is rated at not more than 8,500 pounds gross vehicle weight and which is designed primarily for the transportation of property, including pickups, vans, and window vans.

    (b)     "Light liquid," as it pertains to R 336.1628, means a liquid that contains 1 or more volatile organic compounds which have vapor pressures of more than 0.04 psia at 20 degrees Centigrade if the total concentration of the pure volatile organic compounds which have vapor pressures of  more  than 0.04 psia at 20 degrees Centigrade is  equal  to

    or  greater  than   20%,  by weight, of the liquid and if the fluid is a liquid at operating conditions.

    (c)     "Limited evidence," a term of art, means either of the following:

    (i)     In human epidemiological studies, the data indicate that a causal relationship between the agent and human cancer is credible,  but  that alternative explanations, such as chance, bias, or confounding variables, could not be adequately excluded.

    (ii)        In animal studies, data suggest a carcinogenic effect,  but  are limited because of any of the following:

    (A)       The studies involve a single species, strain, or experiment and do not meet criteria for sufficient evidence.

    (B)    The experiments are restricted by any of the following:

    (1)     Inadequate dosage levels.

    (3)     Inadequate period of follow-up.

    (4)     Poor survival.

    (5)     Too few animals.

    (6)     Inadequate reporting.

    (C)    The data show an increase in the incidence of benign tumors only.

    (d)    "Linearized multistage computer model" means a dose-response model which assumes that there are a number of distinct biological stages or changes that must occur for a normal cell to be transformed into a tumor and which assumes the dose- response relationship to be linear at low doses.

    (e)       "Loading facility" means a location where volatile organic compounds are received from sources of supply and are stored for later delivery to another facility.
