Adm. Code 230 or 35 Ill. Adm. Code 231; or the Lowest Achievable Emission Rate, under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 203; or Best Available Control Technology, under a permit issued under Section 9.1(d) of the Act or under Section 9.4 of the Act. e)         For the purposes of this Subpart, an emission source shall be considered regulated by a Subpart if it is subject to the limits of that Subpart or it would be subject to the limits of that Subpart if the emission sources, emitting VOM, had sufficient size, throughput or emissions, or if the emission source did not meet a specific exemption contained in that Subpart. f)         For the purposes of this Subpart, uncontrolled volatile organic material emissions are the emissions of volatile organic material that would result if no air pollution control equipment were used.
