In Wadesboro,turn right onto Hwy 52 North at the western part of town, drive almost''/2 mile, and then turn left onto Hwy 742 North. Go—7 miles, and facility will be on the left hand side(— 1 mile past I I Red Hill-Mount Vernon Road to the right). Once facility is seen,go a short way and turn left onto Luke White Road(there's a sign saying"Lisk Trucking-Main Office"), and then another quick left into office parking lot. 2) Safety Considerations Standard DAQ safety equipment. Watch for trucks entering and exiting, as Lisk Trucking Company is here, also. 3) Facility and Process Description Lisk Sand is a bulk hauling company that specializes in industrial and abrasive material hauling. This facility is permitted under Air Permit No. 09580R02,effective 17 June 2015 to 31 May 2023. Mike Thomas conducted the last compliance inspection on 3 June 2015. Lisk Sand receives dried sand from an outside vendor(currently Unimin Corporation in Richmond County). The sand is offloaded via pneumatic truck into a silo located inside a building. The sand is then gravity fed to a bagging machine to produce various size packages,which are stacked on pallets prior to shipping to customers via truck. The facility produces play sand and sandblasting sand products. The silo filling and packaging operations are controlled by a simple cyclone in series with a cartridge type fabric filter. There are no fuel combustion devices on site. There are no emergency generators. 4) Permitted Emission Sources Storage silo,40 ton capacity Cyclone ES-1 34 inches in diameter Not operating CD-1 ( ) in series with in series with f Cartridge Fabric ES-2 g CD 2 (1,808 square feet of filter area) er Baggingoperation !� Not o eratin 5) Inspection Conference On 12 May 2016,I,Mike Thomas of FRO DAQ conducted a compliance inspection of this facility. I met with facility contact,Mr. Chris Tucker. We discussed the following: a) Verified the FACFINDER: no changes are needed. b) I inquired about the facility's current production. Mr. Tucker stated that they were still operating the bagging system but on a much reduced basis of about once a week or less. c) Production: Year Tons/week 2015 24 2014 75 2013 150 6) Inspection(facility was not operating during inspection) Mr.Tucker led me on a tour of the facility. Bagging only occurs about once a week or less due to reduced product demand. I verified with Mr. Tucker that the bagging operation still operates as follows:the bagging operation is dependent on the supply truck,the silo, and the bagging machine all working simultaneously. The supply truck is attached to the silo and allowed to build pressure(10psi)for a few minutes and to allow partial filling of the silo. Once pressure is obtained the bagging machine is started and bag filling proceeds. The speed and continuous nature of how the system works does not allow for over filling of the silo. In addition,the two operators have visual cues from the movement of the pneumatic line to the rate of bag filling to indicate that the system is running at the appropriate pressure. Waste from the baghouse is collected in covered 50 gallon drums. The drums are emptied approximately once a week. The waste is stockpiled at the facility and then disposed of at the landfill. The facility was not operating during the inspection,however,I did not observe any accumulations of PM that would indicate possible problems with V.E. I observed the maintenance records for the cyclone and baghouse. Both control devices had detailed logs documenting inspections and maintenance actions. 7) Permit Stipulations a) A.2 2Q .0304 PERMIT RENEWAL AND EMISSION INVENTORY REQUIREMENT—Entire facility subject.
