Identification of the equipment does not require physical tagging of the equipment. For example,the equipment may be identified on a plant site plan, in log entries, by designation of process unit or affected facility boundaries by some form of weatherproof identification, or by other appropriate methods. In addition to the above, the following equipment shall be specifically identified: i. Connectors that are: (A)Buried, insulated in a manner that prevents access by a monitor probe, (B) Obstructed by equipment or piping that prevents access by a monitoring probe, (C) Unable to be reached by a lift up to 25 feet above ground level, (D)Inaccessible because it would require elevating the monitoring personnel more than seven feet above a permanent support surface or would require the erection of scaffolding, or (E) Not able to be accessed in a safe manner to perform monitoring; (Connectors creed not be individually identified if all connectors in a designated area or length of pipe are identified as a group, and the number of connectors subject is indicated.) ii. Pressure relief devices that are equipped with rupture disk upstream of the pressure device; iii. Valves, pumps, and connectors that are designated unsafe-to-monitor (i.e., Permittee has determined that monitoring personnel would be exposed to an immediate danger as a consequence of complying with the monitoring requirements); and iv. Valves that are difficult-to-monitor (i.e., Permittee has determined that the valve cannot be monitored without elevating the monitoring personnel more than seven feet above a support surface or it is not accessible in a safe manner when it is in regulated material service. b. The Permittee shall record the identity of equipment designated as unsafe-to-monitor and/or difficult- to-monitor and the planned schedule for monitoring this equipment. The Permittee shall include an Permit 01819T40 Page 33 explanation why the equipment is unsafe or difficult-to-monitor. These records must be kept at the plant and he available for review by an inspector. i.

Instrument monitoring shall comply with the following requirements, i. Monitoring shall comply with Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60,appendix A. ii. The detection instrument shall meet the performance criteria of Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, except the instrument response factor criteria in section 3.1.2, paragraph(a)of Method 21 shall be for the representative composition of the process fluid not each individual VOC in the stream. For process streams that contain nitrogen, air, water or other inerts that are not VOC, the representative stream response factor shall be determined on an inert-free basis. The response factor may be determined at any concentration for which monitoring for leaks will be conducted. If there is no instrument commercially available that will meet the performance criteria specified above, the instrument readings may be adjusted by multiplying by the representative response factor of the process fluid,calculated on an inert-free basis. iii. The detection instrument shall be calibrated annually by the manufacturer by the procedures specified in Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. iv. Calibration gases shall be zero air (Iess than 10 parts per million of hydrocarbon in air); and the gases shall be mixtures of methane in air at a concentration no more than 2,000 parts per million greater than the leak definition concentration of the equipment monitored. If the monitoring instrument's design allows for multiple calibration scales, then the lower scale shall be calibrated with a calibration gas that is no higher than 2,000 parts per million above the concentration specified as a leak, and the highest scale shall be calibrated with a calibration gas that is approximately equal to 10,000 parts per million. A calibration gas other than methane in air may be used if the instrument does not respond to methane or if the instrument does not meet the performance criteria specified Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. In such cases, the calibration gas may be a mixture of one or more of the compounds to be measured in air. v. Monitoring shall be performed when the equipment is in VOC service. g. The Permittee may elect to adjustor not to adjust the instrument readings for background. i. If the Permittee elects not to adjust instrument readings for background, the Permittee shall monitor the equipment according to the procedures specified above in Section 2.2 B.2.f of this permit, above. In such cases, all instrument readings shall be compared directly to the applicable leak definition for the monitored equipment to determine whether there is a leak or to determine compliance with operational standards for pressure relief devices. ii. If the Permittee elects to adjust instrument readings for background,the Permittee shall Pet-nit 01819T40 Page 34 (A)Monitor the equipment according to the procedures specified above in Section 2.2 B.2.f, above; (B)Determine the background level using the procedures in Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A; (C) Traverse the potential leak interfaces with the instrument probe as close to the interface as possible as described in Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60,appendix A; and (D)Compare the arithmetic difference between the maximum concentration indicated by the instrument and the background level to the applicable leak definition for the monitored equipment to determine whether there is a leak or to determine compliance operational standards for pressure relief devices. h. When a leak is detected: i. A weatherproof and readily visible identification, shall be attached to the leaking equipment, and ii. Leak repair records shall be made that include the following: (A)The date of first attempt to repair the leak; (B) The date of successful repair of the leak; (C) The maximum instrument reading measured by Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A at the time the leak is successfully repaired or determined to be non-repairable; (D)Dates of process unit shutdowns that occur while the equipment is unrepaired; and (E) Any delay of repair and the reason for the delay if a leak is not repaired within 15 calendar days after discovery of the leak. (1) The Permittee may develop a written procedure that identifies the conditions that justify a delay of repair. The written procedures may be included as part of the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan, or may be part of a separate document that is maintained at the plant site. In such cases, reasons for delay of repair may be documented by citing the relevant sections of the written procedure(i.e. season operation). (2) If delay of repair was caused by depletion of stocked parts, there must be documentation that the spare parts were sufficiently stocked on-site before depletion and the reason for depletion. Leak Repair [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] i. The Permittee shall repair each leak detected as soon as practical, but not later than 15 calendar- days after it is detected, except as provided for in delay of repair and/or unsafe to repair connectors. A first attempt at repair shall be made no later than 5 calendar days after the leak is detected. First attempt at repair for pumps includes, but is not limited to, tightening the packing gland nuts and/or ensuring that the seal flush is operating at design pressure and temperature. First attempt at repair for valves includes, but is not limited to,tightening the bonnet bolts, and/or replacing the bonnet bolts,and/or tightening the packing gland nuts,and/or injecting lubricant into the lubricated packing. j. The leak identification on a valve in gas/vapor or light liquid service may be removed after it has been monitored as specified in this permit and no leak has been detected during that monitoring. The leak identification on a connector in gas/vapor or light liquid service may be removed after it has been monitored as specified in this permit and no leak has been detected during that monitoring. Identification that has been placed on equipment determined to have a leak, except for a valve or for a connector in gas/vapor or Iight liquid service, may be removed after it is repaired. k. Delay of repair is allowed for any of the conditions specified below. The Permittee shall maintain a record of the facts that explain any delay of repairs and, where appropriate, why the repair was technically infeasible without a process unit shutdown. i. Delay of repair of equipment for which leaks have been detected is allowed if repair within 15 days after a leak is detected is technically infeasible without a process unit or affected facility shutdown. Repair of this equipment shall occur as soon as practical, but no later than the end of the next process unit shutdown. However, delay of repair beyond a process unit shutdown will be allowed for a valve if valve assembly replacement is necessary during the process unit shutdown, and valve assembly supplies have been depleted, and valve assembly supplies had been sufficiently stocked Permit 01819T40 Page 35 before the supplies were depleted. Delay of repair beyond the second process unit shutdown will not be allowed unless the third process unit shutdown occurs sooner than six months after the first process unit shutdown. ii. Delay of repair of equipment for which leaks have been detected is allowed for equipment that is isolated from the process and that does not remain in VOC service. iii. Delay of repair for valves and connectors is also allowed if. (A)The Permittee determines that emissions of purged material resulting from immediate repair would be greater than the fugitive emissions likely to result from delay of repair,and (B) When repair procedures are effected, the purged material can not be collected and destroyed or reused in the process. iv. Delay of repair for pumps is also allowed if repair requires replacing the existing seal design with a new system that the Permittee has determined under a quality improvement program (Sections 2.2 B.2.bb through 2.2 B.2.gg, below) will provide better performance, or the repair is completed as soon as practical, but not later than 6 months after the leak was detected and one of the following is used; (A)A dual mechanical seal system; (B)A pump that meets has no external shaft penetrating the pump housing;or (C)A system that routes emissions to a process or a fuel gas system or a closed vent system and control device; Valves in GasNanor/Light Liquid Service [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] 1. The Permittee shall monitor all valves using the method specified in this permit at the intervals, except unsafe to monitor valves and maintain records as specified below. The instrument reading that defines a leak is 500 parts per million or greater. i. If at least the greater of two valves or two percent of the valves in a process unit leak,the Permittee shall monitor each valve once per month. ii At process units with less than the greater of two leaking valves or two percent leaking valves, the Permittee shall monitor each valve once each quarter, except as provided below. (A)The Permittee may elect to monitor each valve once every two quarters for process units with less than one percent leaking valves. (B)The Permittee may elect to monitor each valve once every form quarters for process units with less than 0.5 percent leaking valves. (C)The Permittee may elect to monitor each valve once every two years for process units with less than 0.25 percent leaking valves. iii. The Permittee shall keep a record of the monitoring schedule for each process unit. m. The Permittee may choose to subdivide the valves in the group of process units and apply the monitoring frequency provisions to each subgroup. If the Permittee subdivides the valves in the group of process units, then the following provisions apply. L The overall performance of total valves in the group of process units to be subdivided shall be less than two percent leaking valves. ii. The initial assignment or subsequent reassignment of valves to subgroups shall be governed as follows. (A)The Permittee shall determine which valves are assigned to each subgroup. Valves with less than one year of monitoring data or valves not monitored within the last twelve inonths must be placed initially into the most frequently monitored subgroup until at least one year of monitoring data have been obtained. (B)Any valve or group of valves can be reassigned from a less frequently monitored subgroup to a more frequently monitored subgroup provided that the valves to be reassigned were monitored during the most recent monitoring period for the less frequently monitored subgroup. The monitoring results must be included with that less frequently monitored subgroup's associated percent leaking valves calculation for that monitoring event. Permit 01 S 19T40 Page 36 (C) Any valve or group of valves can be reassigned from a more frequently monitored subgroup to a less frequently monitored subgroup provided that the valves to be reassigned have not leaked for the period of the less frequently monitored subgroup (e.g., for the last 12 months, if the valve or group of valves is to be reassigned to a subgroup being monitored annually). Non- repairable valves may not be reassigned to a less frequently monitored subgroup. iii. The Permittee shall determine every six months if the overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units is less than two percent leaking valves and so indicate the performance in the next periodic report. If the overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units is two percent leaking valves or greater, the 1 Permittee shall no longer subgroup and shall revert to the program required in Section 2.2 B.2.p. for that group of process units. The Permittee can again elect to comply with the valve subgrouping procedures if future overall performance of total valves in the process unit or group of process units is again less than two percent.The overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units shall be calculated as a weighted average of the percent leaking valves of each subgroup according to following equation: (%VL' x V;} %V — Lo - H V; Where: %VLO Overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units %VLi =Percent leaking valves in subgroup i,most recent value V; =Number of valves in subgroup i n =Number of subgroups. iv. The Permittee shall maintain the following records: (A)Which valves are assigned to each subgroup; (B) Monitoring results and calculations made for each subgroup for each monitoring period; (C) Which valves are reassigned, the last monitoring result prior to reassignment, and when they were reassigned; and (D)The results of the semiannual overall performance calculation. v. The Permittee shall notify the DAQ no later than 30 days prior to the beginning of the next monitoring period of the decision to subgroup valves. The notification shall identify the participating process units and the number of valves assigned to each subgroup, if applicable, and may be included in the next semi-annual periodic report. vi. The Permittee shall submit in the semi-annual periodic reports the following information: (A)Total number of valves in each subgroup, and (B) The results of the semiannual overall performance calculation. n. The Permittee perform percentage calculations for each process group (i.e., botanical extraction, biomass extraction, and Rotocelhecovery) for comparison with the sub grouping criteria specified in Section 2.2 B.2.m, above, and the percent leaking valves for each monitoring period for each process unit or valve subgroup shall be calculated using the following equation: %V1 = V x 100 T Where: %VL = Percent leaking valves. Permit 0 1 819T40 Page 37 Vu, = Number of valves found leaking,excluding non-repairable valves and including those valves found whose repair was not confirmed with both post leak repair monitoring and periodic monitoring. VT = The sum of the total number of valves monitored. o. When determining monitoring frequency for each process unit or valve subgroup subject to monthly, quarterly, or semiannual monitoring frequencies, the percent leaking valves shall be the arithmetic average of the percent leaking valves from the last two monitoring periods. When determining monitoring frequency for each process unit or valve subgroup subject to annual or biennial (once every 2 years) monitoring frequencies, the percent leaking valves shall be the arithmetic average of the percent Ieaking valves from the last three monitoring periods. i. Non-repairable valves shall be included in the calculation of percent leaking valves the first time the valve is identified as leaking and non-repairable. Otherwise, a number of non-repairable valves (identified and included in the percent leaking valves calculation in a previous period) up to a maximum of one percent of the total number of valves in VOC service at a process unit may be excluded from calculation of percent leaking valves for subsequent monitoring periods. ii. If the number of non-repairable valves exceeds one percent of the total number of valves in regulated material service at a process unit or affected facility, the number of non-repairable valves exceeding one percent of the total number of valves in regulated material service shall be included in the calculation of percent leaking valves. p. If a leak is determined, then the leak shall be repaired. After a leak has been repaired,the valve shall be monitored at least once within the first three months after its repair. i. This monitoring is in addition to the monitoring required to satisfy the definition of repaired and first attempt at repair. The monitoring shall be conducted to determine whether the valve has resumed leaking. ii. Periodic monitoring may be used to satisfy this if the timing of the monitoring period coincides with the time specified. Alternatively, other monitoring may be performed to satisfy the requirement regardless of whether the timing of the monitoring period for periodic monitoring coincides with the time above. iii. If a leak is detected by monitoring that is conducted after leak repair,the Permittee shall: (A)Use periodic monitoring to satisfy the requirement above, then the valve shall be counted as a leaking valve, or (B) If the Permittee elected to use other monitoring, prior to the periodic monitoring, to satisfy the above requirement, then the valve shall be counted as a leaking valve unless it is repaired and shown by periodic monitoring not to be leaking. q. Any valve that is designated as an unsafe-to-monitor or difficult to monitor valve is exempt from the requirements of Section 2.2 B.2.1, above, and the Permittee shall monitor the valve according to the written plan specified in Section 2.2 B.2.b, above. Pumps in light liquid service standards [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] r. The pumps shall be instrumentally monitored monthly to detect leaks by the method specified in this permit.

Each pump shall be checked by visual inspection each calendar week for indications of liquids dripping from the pump seal.The Permittee shall document that the inspection was conducted and the date of the inspection. If there are indications of liquids dripping from the pump seal at the time of the weekly inspection,the Permittee shall: i. Monitor the pump as specified in this permit and if the instrument reading indicates a reading of 2,000 parts per million (ppm) or greater it shall be repaired using the procedures in Sections 2.2 B.2A through 2.2 B.2.k, above; or Permit 01819T40 Page 38 ii. Eliminate the visual indications of liquids dripping. Any pump that is located within the boundary of an unmanned plant site is exempt from the weekly visual inspection provided that each pump is visually inspected as often as practical and at least monthly. t. If, when calculated on a 6-month rolling average for the percent leaking pumps, at least the greater of either 10 percent of the pumps in a process unit or three pumps in a process unit leak, the Permittee shall implement a quality improvement program for pumps Sections 2.2.B.2.bb through 2.2 B.2.99, below. The Permittee shall not alter the process grouping used in calculating this percentage. i. The number of pumps at a process unit shall be the sum of all the pumps in VOC service, except that pumps found leaking in a continuous process unit within one month after start-up of the pump shall not count in the percent leaking pumps calculation for that one monitoring period only. ii. Percent leaking pumps shall be determined by the following equation: I %P1. _ —PS}—PS x100 P.1. Where: %PL=Percent leaking pumps PL =Number of pumps found leaking as determined through monthly monitoring. Do not include results from inspection of unsafe-to-monitor pumps. Ps =Number of pumps leaking within one month of start-up during the current monitoring period. P1. =Total pumps in VOC, including pumps with duel mechanical seals, pumps with no external shaft penetrating the pump housing, and unsafe to monitor pumps. Connectors in gas and vapor service and in lip-lit liquid service standards [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] u. The Permittee shall monitor all connectors in gas and vapor and light liquid using instrumentation as specified in this permit. If an instrument reading greater than or equal to 500 parts per million is measured, a leak is detected. Any connector that is designated as unsafe-to-monitor is exempt from this requirement and shall be monitored and inspected according to the written plan specified in Section 2.2 B.2.b,above. v. The Permittee shall perform monitoring as specified below. i. If the percent leaking connectors in the process unit was greater than or equal to 0.5 percent, then monitor within 12 months(one year). ii. If the percent leaking connectors in the process unit was greater than or equal to 0.25 percent but less than 0.5 percent, then monitor within four yearns. The Permittee may comply with this requirement by monitoring at least 40 percent of the connectors within two years of the start of the monitoring period, provided all connectors have been monitored by the end of the four year monitoring period. iii. If the percent leaking connectors in the process unit was less than 0.25 percent the Permittee shall monitor at least 50 percent of the connectors within four years of the start of the monitoring period and (A)Monitor as soon as practical, but within the next six months, all connectors that have not yet been monitored during the monitoring period if the percent leaking connectors is greater than or equal to 0.35 percent of the monitored connectors [At the conclusion of monitoring, a new monitoring period shall be started based on the percent leaking connectors of the total monitored connectors.], or (B)Monitor all connectors that have not yet been monitored within eight years of the start of the monitoring period if the percent leaking connectors is less than 0.35 percent of the monitored connectors. Permit 01819T40 Page 39 iv. If, during the monitoring, a connector is found to be leaking, it shall be re-aonitored once within 90 days after repair to confirm that it is not leaking. v. The Permittee shall Keep a record of the start date and end date of each monitoring period under this section for each process unit. w. Monitoring frequency shall be determined based on the percent leaking connectors and calculated as follows: %CL = Cr x 100 C7. Where: %CL = Percent leaking connectors as determined through periodic monitoring. CL = Number of connectors measured at 500 parts per million or greater. C, = Total number of monitored connectors in the process unit. x. Connectors that are: i. Buried, insulated in a manner that prevents access by a monitor probe, ii. Obstructed by equipment or piping that prevents access by a monitoring probe, iii. Unable to be reached by a lift up to 25 feet above ground level, iv. Inaccessible because it would require elevating the monitoring personnel more than seven feet above a permanent support surface or would require the erection of scaffolding, or v.

Quality improvement program for pumps [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] bb. If, on a 6-month rolling average, at least the greater of either 10 percent of the pumps in a process unit or three pumps in a process unit leak, tine Permittee shall implement a quality improvement plan until the number of leaking pumps is less than the greater of either 10 percent of the pumps or three pumps in the process unit, calculated as a 6-month rolling average. Once the performance level is achieved, the Permittee shall comply with the requirements in Sections 2.2 B.2.r through 2.2 B.2.t,above. cc.

The inspection shall determine the probable cause of the pump seal failure or of the pump leak and shall include recommendations, as appropriate, for design changes or changes in specifications to reduce leak potential. cc. The Permittee shall analyze the data collected to comply with the requirements of Section 2.2 B.2.cc, above,to determine the services, operating or maintenance practices, and pump or pump seal designs or technologies that have poorer than average emission performance and those that have better than average emission performance. The analysis shall determine if specific trouble areas can be identified on the basis of service, operating conditions or maintenance practices, equipment design, or other process-specific factors. i. The analysis shall also be used to determine if there are superior performing pump or pump seal technologies that are applicable to the service(s), operating conditions, or pump or pump seal designs associated with poorer than average emission performance. A superior performing pump or pump seal technology is one with a leak frequency of less than 10 percent for specific applications in the process unit. A candidate superior performing pump or pump seal technology is one demonstrated or reported in the available literature or through a group study as having low emission performance and as being capable of achieving less than 10 percent Ieaking pumps in the process unit. ii. The analysis shall include consideration of the following information: (A)The data obtained from the inspections of pumps and pump seals removed from the process unit due to leaks; (B) Information from the available literature and from the experience of other plant sites that will identify pump designs or technologies and operating conditions associated with low emission performance for specific services; and (C) Information on limitations on the service conditions for the pump seal technology operating conditions as well as information on maintenance procedures to ensure continued low emission performance. iii. The data analysis may be conducted through an inter- or intra-company program (or through some combination of the two approaches) and may be for a single process unit, a plant site, a company, or a group of process units. iv. The first analysis of the data shall be completed no later than 18 months after the start of the quality improvement program. The first analysis shall be performed using data collected for a minimum of six months. An analysis of the data shall be done each year the process unit or affected facility is in the quality improvement program. ff. The Permittee shall prepare and implement a pump quality assurance program that details purchasing specifications and maintenance procedures for all pumps and pump seals in the process unit. The quality assurance program may establish any number of categories, or classes, of pumps as needed to distinguish among operating conditions and services associated with poorer than average emission performance as well as those associated with better than average emission performance. The quality assurance program shall be developed considering the findings of the data analysis required under paragraph Section 2.2B.2.ee, above, and the operating conditions in the process unit. The quality I Perinit 01819T40 Page 41 assurance program shall be updated each year as long as the process unit has the greater of either 10 percent or more leaking pumps or has three leaking pumps. L The quality assurance program shall implement the following procedures. (A)Establish minimum design standards for each category of pumps or pump seal technology. The design standards shall specify known critical parameters such as tolerance, manufacturer, materials of construction,previous usage,or other applicable identified critical parameters. (B) Require that all equipment orders specify the design standard (or minimum tolerances) for the pump or the pump seal. (C)Provide for an audit procedure for quality control of purchased equipment to ensure conformance with purchase specifications. (D)Detail off-line pump maintenance and repair procedures. These procedures shall include provisions to ensure that rebuilt or refurbished pumps and pump seals will meet the design specifications for the pump category and will operate so that emissions are minimized. ii. The quality assurance program shall be established no later than the start of the third year of the quality improvement program. gg. Three years after the start of the quality improvement program, the Permittee shall replace the pumps or pump seals that are not superior emission performance technology with pumps or pump seals that have been identified as superior emission performance technology and that comply with the quality assurance standards for the pump category. Superior emission performance technology is that category or design of pumps or pump seals with emission performance that when combined with appropriate process, operating, and maintenance practices, will result in less than 10 percent leaking pumps for specific applications in the process unit. Superior emission performance technology includes material or design changes to the existing pump, pump seal, seat support system, installation of multiple mechanical seals or equivalent,or pump replacement. i. Pumps or pump seals shall be replaced at the rate of 20 percent per year based on the total number of pumps in light liquid service. The calculated value shall be rounded to the nearest nonzero integer value. The minimum number of pumps or pump seals shall be one. Pump replacement shall continue until all pumps subject to the requirements of Sections 2.2 B.2.r through 2.2 B.2.t, above, are pumps determined to be superior performance technology. ii. The Permittee may delay replacement of pump seals or pumps with superior technology until the next planned process unit shutdown, provided the number of pump seals and pumps replaced is equivalent to the 20 percent or greater annual replacement rate. iii. The pumps shall be maintained as specified in the quality assurance program. hh.

General Emissions Testing and Reporting Requirements[15A NCAC 2Q.0508(i)(16)] Emission compliance testing shall be by the procedures of Section.2600,except as may be otherwise required in Rules .0524,.0912, .1110, .11 l 1,or.1415 of Subchapter 2D.If emissions testing is required by this permit or the DAQ or if the Permittee submits emissions testing to the DAQ to demonstrate compliance,the Permittee shall perform such testing in accordance with 15A NCAC 213.2600 and follow the procedures outlined below: 1. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for air emission testing protocols to be provided to the Director prior to air pollution testing.Testing protocols are not required to be pre-approved by the Director prior to air pollution testing.The Director shall review air emission testing protocols for pre-approval prior to testing if requested by the owner or operator at least 45 days before conducting the test. 2. Any person proposing to conduct an emissions test to demonstrate compliance with an applicable standard shall notify the Director at least 15 days before beginning the test so that the Director may at his option observe the test. 3.The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for controlling and measuring the production rates during the period of air testing.The owner or operator of the source shall ensure that the equipment or process being tested is Permit 01819T40 Page 58 operated at the production rate that best fulfills the purpose of the test.The 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 fmds 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: (1) Allow deviations fi•om 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 metliod is inappropriate for the source being tested. (2)Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative method is necessary to secure more reliable test data. (3)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 subject 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 2D.2600 has precedence over all other tests. KK.Reopening for Cause[15A NCAC 2Q.0517] L A permit shall be reopened and revised under the following 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 1V; c. the Director or EPA finds that the pennit contains a material mistake or that inaccurate statements were made in establishing the emissions standards or other terms or conditions of the pennit;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 expiration of the permit term unless the term of the permit was extended pursuant to 15A NCAC 2Q.0513(c). 3.Except for the state-enforceable only portion of the permit,the procedures set out in 15A NCAC 2Q.0507,.0521,or .0522 shall be followed to reissue the permit. If the State-enforceable only portion of the permit is reopened,the procedures in 15A NCAC 2Q.0300 shall be followed. The proceedings shall affect only those parts of the permit for which cause to reopen exists. 4.The Director shall notify the Permittee at least 60 days in advance of the date that the permit is to be reopened,except in cases of imminent threat to public health or safety the notification period may be less than 60 days. 5.Within 90 days,or 180 days if the EPA extends the response period,after receiving notification firm the EPA that a permit needs to be terminated,modified,or revoked and reissued,the Director shall send to the EPA a proposed determination oftennination,modification,or revocation and reissuance,as appropriate. LL. Reporting Requirements for Non-Operating Equipment[15A NCAC 2Q.0508(i)(16)] The Permittee shall maintain a record of operation for permitted equipment noting whenever the equipment is taken 11-om and placed into operation.

Leak Detection and Repair [15A NCAC 2D .0530: Prevention of Significant Deterioration] Eguipment identification [I SA NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] a. Affected process equipment shall be identified. Identification of the equipment does not require physical tagging of the equipment. For example,the equipment may be identified on a plant site plan, in log entries, by designation of process unit or affected facility boundaries by some form of weatherproof identification, or by other appropriate methods. In addition to the above, the following equipment shall be specifically identified: i. Connectors that are: (A)Buried, insulated in a manner that prevents access by a monitor probe, (B) Obstructed by equipment or piping that prevents access by a monitoring probe, (C) Unable to be reached by a lift up to 25 feet above ground level, (D)Inaccessible because it would require elevating the monitoring personnel more than seven feet above a permanent support surface or would require the erection of scaffolding, or (E) Not able to be accessed in a safe manner to perform monitoring; (Connectors creed not be individually identified if all connectors in a designated area or length of pipe are identified as a group, and the number of connectors subject is indicated.) ii. Pressure relief devices that are equipped with rupture disk upstream of the pressure device; iii. Valves, pumps, and connectors that are designated unsafe-to-monitor (i.e., Permittee has determined that monitoring personnel would be exposed to an immediate danger as a consequence of complying with the monitoring requirements); and iv. Valves that are difficult-to-monitor (i.e., Permittee has determined that the valve cannot be monitored without elevating the monitoring personnel more than seven feet above a support surface or it is not accessible in a safe manner when it is in regulated material service. b. The Permittee shall record the identity of equipment designated as unsafe-to-monitor and/or difficult- to-monitor and the planned schedule for monitoring this equipment. The Permittee shall include an Permit 01819T40 Page 33 explanation why the equipment is unsafe or difficult-to-monitor. These records must be kept at the plant and he available for review by an inspector. i.

Pumps in light liquid service; iii. Connectors in gas/vapor or light liquid service; and iv. Pressure relief devices in gas/vapor service. e. Sensory monitoring for leaks shall be conducted for pumps in light liquid service. Sensory monitoring consists of visual, audible, olfactory, or any other detection method used to determine a potential leak to the atmosphere. f. Instrument monitoring shall comply with the following requirements, i. Monitoring shall comply with Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60,appendix A. ii. The detection instrument shall meet the performance criteria of Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, except the instrument response factor criteria in section 3.1.2, paragraph(a)of Method 21 shall be for the representative composition of the process fluid not each individual VOC in the stream. For process streams that contain nitrogen, air, water or other inerts that are not VOC, the representative stream response factor shall be determined on an inert-free basis. The response factor may be determined at any concentration for which monitoring for leaks will be conducted. If there is no instrument commercially available that will meet the performance criteria specified above, the instrument readings may be adjusted by multiplying by the representative response factor of the process fluid,calculated on an inert-free basis. iii. The detection instrument shall be calibrated annually by the manufacturer by the procedures specified in Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. iv. Calibration gases shall be zero air (Iess than 10 parts per million of hydrocarbon in air); and the gases shall be mixtures of methane in air at a concentration no more than 2,000 parts per million greater than the leak definition concentration of the equipment monitored. If the monitoring instrument's design allows for multiple calibration scales, then the lower scale shall be calibrated with a calibration gas that is no higher than 2,000 parts per million above the concentration specified as a leak, and the highest scale shall be calibrated with a calibration gas that is approximately equal to 10,000 parts per million. A calibration gas other than methane in air may be used if the instrument does not respond to methane or if the instrument does not meet the performance criteria specified Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. In such cases, the calibration gas may be a mixture of one or more of the compounds to be measured in air. v. Monitoring shall be performed when the equipment is in VOC service. g. The Permittee may elect to adjustor not to adjust the instrument readings for background. i. If the Permittee elects not to adjust instrument readings for background, the Permittee shall monitor the equipment according to the procedures specified above in Section 2.2 B.2.f of this permit, above. In such cases, all instrument readings shall be compared directly to the applicable leak definition for the monitored equipment to determine whether there is a leak or to determine compliance with operational standards for pressure relief devices. ii. If the Permittee elects to adjust instrument readings for background,the Permittee shall Pet-nit 01819T40 Page 34 (A)Monitor the equipment according to the procedures specified above in Section 2.2 B.2.f, above; (B)Determine the background level using the procedures in Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A; (C) Traverse the potential leak interfaces with the instrument probe as close to the interface as possible as described in Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60,appendix A; and (D)Compare the arithmetic difference between the maximum concentration indicated by the instrument and the background level to the applicable leak definition for the monitored equipment to determine whether there is a leak or to determine compliance operational standards for pressure relief devices. h. When a leak is detected: i. A weatherproof and readily visible identification, shall be attached to the leaking equipment, and ii. Leak repair records shall be made that include the following: (A)The date of first attempt to repair the leak; (B) The date of successful repair of the leak; (C) The maximum instrument reading measured by Method 21 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A at the time the leak is successfully repaired or determined to be non-repairable; (D)Dates of process unit shutdowns that occur while the equipment is unrepaired; and (E) Any delay of repair and the reason for the delay if a leak is not repaired within 15 calendar days after discovery of the leak. (1) The Permittee may develop a written procedure that identifies the conditions that justify a delay of repair. The written procedures may be included as part of the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan, or may be part of a separate document that is maintained at the plant site. In such cases, reasons for delay of repair may be documented by citing the relevant sections of the written procedure(i.e. season operation). (2) If delay of repair was caused by depletion of stocked parts, there must be documentation that the spare parts were sufficiently stocked on-site before depletion and the reason for depletion. Leak Repair [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] i. The Permittee shall repair each leak detected as soon as practical, but not later than 15 calendar- days after it is detected, except as provided for in delay of repair and/or unsafe to repair connectors. A first attempt at repair shall be made no later than 5 calendar days after the leak is detected. First attempt at repair for pumps includes, but is not limited to, tightening the packing gland nuts and/or ensuring that the seal flush is operating at design pressure and temperature. First attempt at repair for valves includes, but is not limited to,tightening the bonnet bolts, and/or replacing the bonnet bolts,and/or tightening the packing gland nuts,and/or injecting lubricant into the lubricated packing. j. The leak identification on a valve in gas/vapor or light liquid service may be removed after it has been monitored as specified in this permit and no leak has been detected during that monitoring. The leak identification on a connector in gas/vapor or light liquid service may be removed after it has been monitored as specified in this permit and no leak has been detected during that monitoring. Identification that has been placed on equipment determined to have a leak, except for a valve or for a connector in gas/vapor or Iight liquid service, may be removed after it is repaired. k. Delay of repair is allowed for any of the conditions specified below. The Permittee shall maintain a record of the facts that explain any delay of repairs and, where appropriate, why the repair was technically infeasible without a process unit shutdown. i. Delay of repair of equipment for which leaks have been detected is allowed if repair within 15 days after a leak is detected is technically infeasible without a process unit or affected facility shutdown. Repair of this equipment shall occur as soon as practical, but no later than the end of the next process unit shutdown. However, delay of repair beyond a process unit shutdown will be allowed for a valve if valve assembly replacement is necessary during the process unit shutdown, and valve assembly supplies have been depleted, and valve assembly supplies had been sufficiently stocked Permit 01819T40 Page 35 before the supplies were depleted. Delay of repair beyond the second process unit shutdown will not be allowed unless the third process unit shutdown occurs sooner than six months after the first process unit shutdown. ii. Delay of repair of equipment for which leaks have been detected is allowed for equipment that is isolated from the process and that does not remain in VOC service. iii. Delay of repair for valves and connectors is also allowed if. (A)The Permittee determines that emissions of purged material resulting from immediate repair would be greater than the fugitive emissions likely to result from delay of repair,and (B) When repair procedures are effected, the purged material can not be collected and destroyed or reused in the process. iv. Delay of repair for pumps is also allowed if repair requires replacing the existing seal design with a new system that the Permittee has determined under a quality improvement program (Sections 2.2 B.2.bb through 2.2 B.2.gg, below) will provide better performance, or the repair is completed as soon as practical, but not later than 6 months after the leak was detected and one of the following is used; (A)A dual mechanical seal system; (B)A pump that meets has no external shaft penetrating the pump housing;or (C)A system that routes emissions to a process or a fuel gas system or a closed vent system and control device; Valves in GasNanor/Light Liquid Service [15A NCAC 2Q .0508(f)] 1. The Permittee shall monitor all valves using the method specified in this permit at the intervals, except unsafe to monitor valves and maintain records as specified below. The instrument reading that defines a leak is 500 parts per million or greater. i. If at least the greater of two valves or two percent of the valves in a process unit leak,the Permittee shall monitor each valve once per month. ii At process units with less than the greater of two leaking valves or two percent leaking valves, the Permittee shall monitor each valve once each quarter, except as provided below. (A)The Permittee may elect to monitor each valve once every two quarters for process units with less than one percent leaking valves. (B)The Permittee may elect to monitor each valve once every form quarters for process units with less than 0.5 percent leaking valves. (C)The Permittee may elect to monitor each valve once every two years for process units with less than 0.25 percent leaking valves. iii. The Permittee shall keep a record of the monitoring schedule for each process unit. m. The Permittee may choose to subdivide the valves in the group of process units and apply the monitoring frequency provisions to each subgroup. If the Permittee subdivides the valves in the group of process units, then the following provisions apply. L The overall performance of total valves in the group of process units to be subdivided shall be less than two percent leaking valves. ii. The initial assignment or subsequent reassignment of valves to subgroups shall be governed as follows. (A)The Permittee shall determine which valves are assigned to each subgroup. Valves with less than one year of monitoring data or valves not monitored within the last twelve inonths must be placed initially into the most frequently monitored subgroup until at least one year of monitoring data have been obtained. (B)Any valve or group of valves can be reassigned from a less frequently monitored subgroup to a more frequently monitored subgroup provided that the valves to be reassigned were monitored during the most recent monitoring period for the less frequently monitored subgroup. The monitoring results must be included with that less frequently monitored subgroup's associated percent leaking valves calculation for that monitoring event. Permit 01 S 19T40 Page 36 (C) Any valve or group of valves can be reassigned from a more frequently monitored subgroup to a less frequently monitored subgroup provided that the valves to be reassigned have not leaked for the period of the less frequently monitored subgroup (e.g., for the last 12 months, if the valve or group of valves is to be reassigned to a subgroup being monitored annually). Non- repairable valves may not be reassigned to a less frequently monitored subgroup. iii. The Permittee shall determine every six months if the overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units is less than two percent leaking valves and so indicate the performance in the next periodic report. If the overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units is two percent leaking valves or greater, the 1 Permittee shall no longer subgroup and shall revert to the program required in Section 2.2 B.2.p. for that group of process units. The Permittee can again elect to comply with the valve subgrouping procedures if future overall performance of total valves in the process unit or group of process units is again less than two percent.The overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units shall be calculated as a weighted average of the percent leaking valves of each subgroup according to following equation: (%VL' x V;} %V — Lo - H V; Where: %VLO Overall performance of total valves in the applicable process unit or group of process units %VLi =Percent leaking valves in subgroup i,most recent value V; =Number of valves in subgroup i n =Number of subgroups. iv.

VT = The sum of the total number of valves monitored. o. When determining monitoring frequency for each process unit or valve subgroup subject to monthly, quarterly, or semiannual monitoring frequencies, the percent leaking valves shall be the arithmetic average of the percent leaking valves from the last two monitoring periods. When determining monitoring frequency for each process unit or valve subgroup subject to annual or biennial (once every 2 years) monitoring frequencies, the percent leaking valves shall be the arithmetic average of the percent Ieaking valves from the last three monitoring periods. i. Non-repairable valves shall be included in the calculation of percent leaking valves the first time the valve is identified as leaking and non-repairable. Otherwise, a number of non-repairable valves (identified and included in the percent leaking valves calculation in a previous period) up to a maximum of one percent of the total number of valves in VOC service at a process unit may be excluded from calculation of percent leaking valves for subsequent monitoring periods. ii. If the number of non-repairable valves exceeds one percent of the total number of valves in regulated material service at a process unit or affected facility, the number of non-repairable valves exceeding one percent of the total number of valves in regulated material service shall be included in the calculation of percent leaking valves. p. If a leak is determined, then the leak shall be repaired. After a leak has been repaired,the valve shall be monitored at least once within the first three months after its repair. i. This monitoring is in addition to the monitoring required to satisfy the definition of repaired and first attempt at repair. The monitoring shall be conducted to determine whether the valve has resumed leaking. ii. Periodic monitoring may be used to satisfy this if the timing of the monitoring period coincides with the time specified. Alternatively, other monitoring may be performed to satisfy the requirement regardless of whether the timing of the monitoring period for periodic monitoring coincides with the time above. iii. If a leak is detected by monitoring that is conducted after leak repair,the Permittee shall: (A)Use periodic monitoring to satisfy the requirement above, then the valve shall be counted as a leaking valve, or (B) If the Permittee elected to use other monitoring, prior to the periodic monitoring, to satisfy the above requirement, then the valve shall be counted as a leaking valve unless it is repaired and shown by periodic monitoring not to be leaking. q. Any valve that is designated as an unsafe-to-monitor or difficult to monitor valve is exempt from the requirements of Section 2.2 B.2.1, above, and the Permittee shall monitor the valve according to the written plan specified in Section 2.2 B.2.b, above.

The Permittee shall analyze the data collected to comply with the requirements of Section 2.2 B.2.cc, above,to determine the services, operating or maintenance practices, and pump or pump seal designs or technologies that have poorer than average emission performance and those that have better than average emission performance. The analysis shall determine if specific trouble areas can be identified on the basis of service, operating conditions or maintenance practices, equipment design, or other process-specific factors. i. The analysis shall also be used to determine if there are superior performing pump or pump seal technologies that are applicable to the service(s), operating conditions, or pump or pump seal designs associated with poorer than average emission performance. A superior performing pump or pump seal technology is one with a leak frequency of less than 10 percent for specific applications in the process unit. A candidate superior performing pump or pump seal technology is one demonstrated or reported in the available literature or through a group study as having low emission performance and as being capable of achieving less than 10 percent Ieaking pumps in the process unit. ii. The analysis shall include consideration of the following information: (A)The data obtained from the inspections of pumps and pump seals removed from the process unit due to leaks; (B) Information from the available literature and from the experience of other plant sites that will identify pump designs or technologies and operating conditions associated with low emission performance for specific services; and (C) Information on limitations on the service conditions for the pump seal technology operating conditions as well as information on maintenance procedures to ensure continued low emission performance. iii.

The quality assurance program may establish any number of categories, or classes, of pumps as needed to distinguish among operating conditions and services associated with poorer than average emission performance as well as those associated with better than average emission performance. The quality assurance program shall be developed considering the findings of the data analysis required under paragraph Section 2.2B.2.ee, above, and the operating conditions in the process unit. The quality I Perinit 01819T40 Page 41 assurance program shall be updated each year as long as the process unit has the greater of either 10 percent or more leaking pumps or has three leaking pumps. L The quality assurance program shall implement the following procedures. (A)Establish minimum design standards for each category of pumps or pump seal technology. The design standards shall specify known critical parameters such as tolerance, manufacturer, materials of construction,previous usage,or other applicable identified critical parameters. (B) Require that all equipment orders specify the design standard (or minimum tolerances) for the pump or the pump seal.

Superior emission performance technology is that category or design of pumps or pump seals with emission performance that when combined with appropriate process, operating, and maintenance practices, will result in less than 10 percent leaking pumps for specific applications in the process unit. Superior emission performance technology includes material or design changes to the existing pump, pump seal, seat support system, installation of multiple mechanical seals or equivalent,or pump replacement. i. Pumps or pump seals shall be replaced at the rate of 20 percent per year based on the total number of pumps in light liquid service. The calculated value shall be rounded to the nearest nonzero integer value. The minimum number of pumps or pump seals shall be one. Pump replacement shall continue until all pumps subject to the requirements of Sections 2.2 B.2.r through 2.2 B.2.t, above, are pumps determined to be superior performance technology. ii. The Permittee may delay replacement of pump seals or pumps with superior technology until the next planned process unit shutdown, provided the number of pump seals and pumps replaced is equivalent to the 20 percent or greater annual replacement rate. iii.
