pressure Pauge.
Indicator Range If the differential pressure drop across the multicyclone is outside
[64.6(c)(2)] the ranges of 4 and 13 inches of water,then an excursion has
occurred. Excursions trigger an inspection and corrective action.
QIP threshold The QIP threshold is ten excursions in a six-month reporting
[64.8] mod.
Data Representativeness The differential pressure is measured via taps on the multicyclone
[64.6(c)(1)(iii),64.3(b)(1)] entry and exit ducts.

individual conducting the emission test shall describe the procedures used to obtain accurate process
data and include in the test report the average production rates determined during each testing period.
4. Two copies of the final air emission test report shall be submitted to the Director not later than 30 days
after sample collection unless otherwise specified in the specific conditions. The owner or operator may
request an extension to submit the final test report.The Director shall approve an extension request if he
finds that the extension request is a result of actions beyond the control of the owner or operator.

a. The Director shall make the final determination regarding any testing procedure deviation and the
validity of the compliance test.The Director may:
i. Allow deviations from a method specified under a rule in this Section if the owner or operator
of the source being tested demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director that the specified
method is inappropriate for the source being tested.
ii. Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative
method is necessary to secure more reliable test data.
iii. Prescribe or approve methods on an individual basis for sources or pollutants for which no test
method is specified in this Section if the methods can be demonstrated to determine compliance
of permitted emission sources or pollutants.
b. The Director may authorize the Division of Air Quality to conduct independent tests of any source
suhject to a rule in this Subchapter to determine the compliance status of that source or to verify any
test data submitted relating to that source. Any test conducted by the Division of Air Quality using
the appropriate testing procedures described in Section 02D .2600 has precedence over all other
tests.
KK. Reopening for Cause[15ANCAC 02Q .0517]
1. A permit shall be reopened and revised under the fallowing circumstances:
a. additional applicable requirements become applicable to a facility with remaining permit term of three
or more years;
b. additional requirements (including excess emission requirements) become applicable to a source
covered by Title IV;
c. the Director or EPA finds that the permit contains a material mistake or that inaccurate statements were
made in establishing the emissions standards or other terms or conditions of the permit;or
d. the Director or EPA determines that the permit must be revised or revoked to assure compliance with
the applicable requirements.
2. Any permit reopening shall be completed or a revised permit issued within 18 months after the applicable
requirement is promulgated. No reopening is required if the effective date of the requirement is after the

testing,monitoring,and recordkeeping are suspended until operation resumes.
MM.Fugitive Dust Control Requirement[15A NCAC 02D.0540]
As required by 15A NCAC 02D.0540"Particulates from Fugitive Bust Emission Sources,"the Permittee shall
not cause or allow fugitive dust emissions to cause or contribute to substantive complaints or excess visible
emissions beyond the property boundary.If substantive complaints or excessive fugitive dust emissions from
the facility are observed beyond the property boundaries for six minutes in any one hour(using Reference
Permit No.03424T26
Page 32
Method 22 in 40 CFR,Appendix A), the owner or operator may be required to submit a fugitive dust plan as
described in 02D.0540(f).
"Fugitive dust emissions"means particulate matter from process operations that does not pass through a process
stack or vent and that is generated within plant property boundaries from activities such as: unloading and
loading areas,process areas,stockpiles,stock pile worldng,plant parking lots,and plant roads(including access
roads and haul roads).

Quality Permit Application for the air emission source(s) and associated air pollution control device(s)
on or before 12 months after commencing operation.
2. For modifications made pursuant to 15A NCAC 02Q.0501(d)(2),the Permittee shall not begin operation
of the air emission source(s) and associated air pollution control device(s) until a Title V Air Quality
Permit Application is filed and a construction and operation permit following the procedures of Section
.0500(except for Rule.0504 of this Section)is obtained.
3. For modifications made pursuant to 502(b)(10),in accordance with 15A NCAC 02Q .0523(a)(1)(C),the

include:
a. a description of the change at the facility;
b, the date on which the change will occur;
C. any change in emissions;and
d. any permit term or condition that is no longer applicable as a result of the change.
In addition to this notification requirement, with the next significant modification or Air Quality Permit
renewal,the Permittee shall submit a page "E5" of the application forms signed by the responsible official
verifying that the application for the 502(b)(10)change/modification,is true,accurate,and complete. Further
note that modifications made pursuant to 502(b)(10) do not relieve the Permittee from satisfying
