Safety Considerations: Standard DAQ safety equipment.Be alert to trucks entering and exiting property. 2) Facility and Process Description The Quikrete Company-Peachland is a concrete facility that dries and packages play sand, concrete,mortar and mason mix, and grout.This facility is permitted under Air Permit No. 06907R08,effective from 6 January 2010 until 30 December 2014. Cindy Grimes conducted the last compliance inspection on 12 June 2012. Raw materials such as sand,cement,and gravel are delivered on site. They are dried through the rotary drum dryer, and then sorted in designated silos.There are 4 separate filling lines at this facility and include 1) Sand line,2)Quikrete cement line, 3)Bulk line for 3,000 lb totes of grout or mortar, and 4)Rock line for%inch marble or gravel bags.After bags are filled within the cement packaging system,they are temporarily stored in the facility's warehouse and/or delivered to the customer.Lowe's and Home Depot are the major clients of Quikrete. Throughput(raw materials used in 2012-tons): Red sand-53,582; Gravel-29,876;Portland cement- 12,649; masonry-3,301; flyash-2,147 a) Permitted Sources ES-1 One LP gas-fired burner(20 mmBtu/hr maximum heat input) Operating.Emissions are combined N/A with dryer emissions.

We discussed the following: a) Verified the FACFINDER information;no data has changed. b) There have been no new sources added or changed since the last compliance inspection in 2013. c) I viewed all of the maintenance logbooks, in which a separate one is maintained for each source.Either Roy Scales (Maintenance Manager)or Tim Huntley(maintenance)records both the bagfilter inspections and pressure gauge readings weekly. The facility has been systematically replacing the bags in all of the bagfilters since 2009. The last annual inspection was conducted on 28 May 2014. d) Mr. Goodloe only wanted minimal assistance with the emissions inventory and AERO due to wanting to train Mr. Snyder in how to do it. 4) Inspection Summary Mr. Goodloe and Mr. Snyder led me on a tour of the facility which was operating. No silo filling occurred during the inspection. Mr. Goodloe stated that the facility fills silos as often as several times a day depending on pending orders for the day. The facility has single silos for dry sand,dry gravel, all purpose sand, and play sand. Two other silos are"split"silos that hold masonry cement and fly ash in one and two compartments of Portland cement. The bagfilters for the silos all appeared to be in good condition and well maintained. I observed no issues in this part of the operation. I observed the rotary dryer and associated LP gas fired burner. Both appeared to be in good working order. I observed 05 V.E. from the baghouse. The packaging system for filling bags is located inside a building. There is a central dust collection system that captures dust that comes from bag filling and from several other points along the packaging process. The system and associated duct work appeared to be well maintained. I observed no problems in this area. 5) Permit Stipulations a) A.3 2D .0515 PARTICULATE CONTROL REQUIREMENT-"articulates from Miscellaneous Industrial Processes",particulate matter emissions from the emission sources shall not exceed allowable emission rates. Appears to be in compliance—Latest permit review shows compliance. All emission sources are controlled by bag filters. b) AA 2D.0521 VISIBLE EMISSIONS REQUIREMENT-"Control of Visible Emissions",visible emissions from the emission sources manufactured after July 1, 1971,shall not be more than 20%opacity. Appears to be in compliance—Three emission sources were operating;two had zero opacity and the sand dryer had some,but less than 20%. c) A.6 2D .0540 FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL REQUIREMENT-Facility shall not cause or allow fugitive dust emissions to cause or contribute to substantive complaints or excess emissions beyond property boundary. Appears to be in compliance—I saw no excessive dust emissions near or beyond the property boundary,and the facility's haul drives are a mixture of gravel and sand in the back,and asphalt on the sides and front.Mr.Goodloe has not received any recent dust complaints. There was an unsubstantiated complaint in 201 lbut I observed no excessive dust in the surrounding area of the facility. d) A.7 2D .0611 FABRIC FILTER REQUIREMENTS-Permitted equipment must be inspected, maintained,and documented in a logbook to ensure that emissions do not exceed the regulatory limits. Appears to be in compliance-All filters appeared to be maintained(except CD-8,apparently),with logbook records complete and updated for each.This facility has a maintenance logbook for each silo, and each had recent inspection entries. e) A.8 2Q .0315 LIMITATION TO AVOID 15A NCAC 2Q.0501—To avoid applicability of 15A NCAC 2Q.0501,facility wide PM 10 emissions shall be less than 100 tons per year.Permittee shall perform an annual inspection of bagfilter system, as well as keep records of all inspection and maintenance. Appears to be in compliance—All records, inventories, and permit reviews indicate compliance. Maintenance does monthly and thorough semiannual inspections on each baghouse. 6) 112R Status This facility neither uses nor stores chemical compounds that require a written risk management plan under the Clean Air Act, Section 112R. 7) DAQ 5-Year Compliance History None in the last 5 years. 8) Comments and Compliance Statement The Quikrete Company-Peachland appeared to be in compliance on 19 August 2014.. Pink Sheet:The next permit touch should correct the emission source descriptions. "Silo loading operation"is a source,not"silo." MEAM currently shows a separate emission point for the dryer,when in fact,all emissions go through the dryer and bag filter vent. /cost
