Although the report was received on time,it contained an exceedance of the total annual allowable amount of No. 2 fuel oil combusted within the liquid,asphalt heater (Source ID H-1). You reported a total of 46,626 gallons,whereas the allowable limit is 27,005 gallons. On January 30,2018,Mr.Paul Williams,Environmental Specialist, contacted Mr. Sean Mackey regarding this reporting exceedance. During this conversation,Mr.Mackey explained that the amount of No.2-fuel oil that was reported was not the actual amount which was combusted,but the total amount delivered to the facility in 2017. Mr.Mackey also stated that he had no way to know the amount of No.2 fuel oil combusted in the liquid asphalt heater. By failing to meet the required reporting criteria by the due date,you are deficient in fulfilling the requirements of Permit Condition A.12. It should be noted that the reporting requirement,associated with current Permit Condition A.12(b)(i), states in part:"The total amount[tons] of hot mix asphalt produced and the total amount of[gallons] of No.2 fuel oil combusted in the liquid asphalt heater(H-1)." Please send the updated information as soon as possible but no later than March 5,2018. Please also include in your response an explanation of why this deficiency occurred and the steps you have taken to ensure that all future reports are received on time and accurate. Failure to submit reports in a timely and accurate manner may result in a violation. All violations of air quality regulations are subject to enforcement action, including a civil penalty,pursuant to NCGS 143-215.114A.
