Additionally, any emissions activities determined from your air permit application as meeting the exemption requirements contained in 15A NCAC 2Q .0102 have been listed for information purposes as an "ATTACHMENT" to the enclosed air permit. Please note the records retention requirements are contained in General Condition 2 of the General Conditions and Limitations. If any parts,requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable to you, you have the right to request a formal adjudicatory hearing within 30 days following receipt of this permit, identifying the specific issues to be contested. Such a request will stay the effectiveness of the entire permit. This hearing request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to G.S. 150B-23 of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh,NC 27699-6714. The form for requesting a formal adjudicatory hearing may be obtained upon request from the Office of Administrative Hearings. Unless a request for a hearing is made pursuant to G.S. 15013-23,this air permit shall be final and binding. You may request modification of your air permit through informal means pursuant to G.S. 15013-22. This request must be submitted in writing to the Director and must identify the specific provisions or issues for which the modification is sought. Please note that the permit will become final and binding regardless of a request for informal modification unless a request for a hearing is also made under G.S. 15013-23.

Failure to do so is a violation of G.S. 143-215.108 and may subject the Permittee to civil or criminal penalties as described in G.S. 143-215.114A and 143- 215.114B. This permit shall be effective from December 31, 2015 until May 31, 2022, is nontransferable to future owners and operators, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. Changes have been made to the permit stipulations. The Permittee is responsible for carefully reading the entire permit and evaluating the requirements of each permit stipulation. The Permittee shall comply with all terms, conditions, requirements,limitations and restrictions set forth in this permit. 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): The toxics condition per 2Q .0711 was updated to correct the type of chromium and mercury compounds listed.The"Chromium(VI)Non-Specific Compounds"will be replaced with"Chromium (VI) Soluble Chromate Compounds".The"Mercury,aryl and inorganic compounds"will be replaced with "Mercury, vapor". Although the incorrect pollutant was listed in the permit, the facility demonstrated compliance with.the correct limit. The toxics condition per 2Q .0702(a)(18) was removed from the permit since the analysis of arsenic has been completed. The portion of the 2D .1100 condition pertaining to arsenic could likely be removed since the TPER is now high enough for the facility to be in compliance with. However,the facility would have to submit a modification application to have this changed. . Should you have any questions concerning this matter,please contact Jennifer Womick at 704-663- 1699.
