Abstract
There have been many changes in the regulations governing materials used in the roofing industry in recent years. The regulations set maximum allowable amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOC) that products may contain. Complicating matters is that these rules and regulations are being enacted at the state level and sometimes on the local level, making it very difficult for the roofing community to understand their obligations and responsibilities. This paper will try to clarify these rules and regulations as well as the implementation of them. A discussion on the products available to meet these requirements will also be included.
