meet the proposed VOC limits, (2) whether available products that meet
the proposed VOC limits are suitable for use in Maine's climate, (3)
the small AIM manufacturers exemption, and (4) any other relevant information
concerning the use of these products in Maine. Copies of this rule are
available upon request by contacting the Agency contact person listed
