                     (8) American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Standard Z9.3.

                b. The acceptability of a paint booth or room is based on observing the
            operation, obtaining representative atmospheric sampling, and determining the
            physical parameters.

                     (1) The evaluation begins by observing the operation. Information on
            the material being used and the equipment being painted must be gathered. Use
            the information in Appendix C and the material safety data sheet (MSDS) to
            identify the contaminants being released during the operation.

                     (2) Sampling methods to collect these contaminants should be chosen
            per Chapter 6.

                     (3) The required respiratory protection Is based on the contaminant
            levels and the length of time the person must work at the operation.
