Noncompliance with any permit condition is grounds for enforcement action, for permit termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification, or for denial of a permit renewal application. Specific changes and additions are summarized below (note: this list may not include all changes and additions): a. The condition for 2D .0958 has been removed from the permit. The rule has been updated to no longer apply state-wide. Also,Alexander County is not located in the non-attainment area. Therefore,the facility is no longer subject to the rule. b. The condition for case-by-case MACT has been removed from the permit. The facility is no longer considered a major source of HAP. Also,the"once-in-always-in"provision has been overturned by EPA. Therefore,the facility is no longer subject to the rule. C. The toxic pollutants of ammonia, ethyl acetate, MEK, and toluene were removed from the condition for 2D .1100 because they never exceeded the TPER limits. These pollutants are being added to the condition for 2Q .0711. d. A condition for synthetic minor has been added to the permit. The facility will be required to perform inspection and maintenance on the thermal oxidizer to show compliance and to maintain emissions to less than 10/25 tons per year of HAP. e. A condition has been added to the permit that requires the facility to submit a compliance certification for the time period they were still classified as Title V for calendar year 2018.
