Inspector's Signature: 6c Comments:
Date of Signature:
MACT/GACT and NSPS Requirements: The facility has an emergency fire pump, ES-1, that is subject to
NESHAP 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ.The boilers, ES-1A and ES-1 B, are subject to NESHAP Subpart JJJJJJ.
Safety Equipment: Standard FRO safety gear.
(1) DIRECTIONS TO SITE: Take Hwy 87 South toward Elizabethtown. Elizabethtown Power, LLC is
on the left side of the road, approximately 1 mile prior to entering Elizabethtown on 87-Business.
(2) FACILITY DESCRIPTION: Elizabethtown Energy, LLC was a coal-fired steam powered electric
generation facility located in Elizabethtown, Bladen County, North Carolina.Their equipment was shut down in
early 2009 and has been prepared for long term storage. The facility is being marketed as a sustainable energy
source of electrical power.There is no plan to restart the facility as a coal fired operation.
(3) INSPECTION SUMMARY:
I met with Mike Wood, Facility Contact and Randy Coates, Plant Manager of Elizabethtown Energy. Randy is
also the only full-time employee at this facility. Both Elizabethtown and Lumberton Energy plants have been
shutdown and mothballed for long term storage.The facility last operated briefly in the first quarter of calendar
year 2009.Their business previously had been to serve as a standby source for Progress Energy(formerly
CP&L).The new management company, Coastal Carolina Clean Power(CCCP), is trying to market the facility
as a source of sustainable electric energy.They do not anticipate restarting the boilers on coal. CCCP is
operating the Kenansville Plant boilers using wood in various forms and from various sources.. The Kenansville
plant, Lumberton and Elizabethtown plants were originally constructed exactly alike.They anticipate that the
_ Page 2of 13
Permit05455 T17
Facility ID 0900043
restart of Elizabethtown and/or Lumberton facilities will be with a combination of non-CISWI wood and poultry
litter.
Randy provided all of the required documentation for demonstrating compliance to the permit stipulations.They
are continuing to track all maintenance work on a Computerized Maintenance Management System.The system
is also being used as a calendar reminder by issuing a work order to Randy to audit all AM responsibilities
outlined in the permit, quarterly,to assure that they are being completed.

ii. wood scraps,
iii. used oil absorbents,
V. used/fuel oil soaked rags, and
V. used oil soaked wood chips.
c. The Permittee may burn 'regenerated' spent cation/anion resins [spent demineralizer resin] in the boilers

ii. The Permittee shall request and obtain written permission from the Fayetteville Regional Supervisor,
Division of Air Quality, prior to burning the resins.
N. Combustion of these plant wastes will occur with the following limitations:
A. Wastes are generated from this plant-site,
B. Wastes are combusted in the boiler(s) operating under conditions of high fire producing high
steam demand,
C. Combustion of these plant wastes will occur with the following limitations that the maximum amount
of'regenerated' spent cation/anion resins [spent demineralizer resin] shall not exceed 40 tons per
year.
d. The tire derived fuel feed rate shall not exceed 40% of the heat input of each boiler.

by the Permittee, toxic pollutant emissions from the firing of the alternative fuel flyash briquettes in the
boilers shall be less than the emissions from the firing of coal in the boilers. To ensure enforceability of this
limit,a total of no more than 36 tons per day of flyash briquettes will be fired in the boiler.
f. The Permittee shall maintain a plant waste fuel start-up logbook onsite with the following information:
i. date of start-up,
H. hours of start-up, and
iii. quantity and type of materials used when plant wastes are used to start-up the boilers.

i. date of plant waste combustion, '
it. type of plant waste combusted,
iii. quantity of waste materials combusted,
iv. feed rate of plant waste to the boiler,
V. feed rate of coal to the boiler,and
vi. documentation of any feed rate limitation, if applicable.
h. The Permittee shall maintain a tire derived fuel (TDF) combustion logbook onsite with the following
information:
i. date of TDF combustion,
it. quantity of TDF combusted,
iii. feed rate of TDF to the boiler,
iv, feed rate of coal to the boiler,and
V. documentation of any feed rate limitation, if applicable.
i. The Permittee shall maintain a pelletized paper fuel (PPF) combustion logbook onsite with the following
information:
i. date of PPF combustion,
H. description of PPF combusted,
iii. quantity of PPF combusted,
iv. feed rate of PPF to the boiler,
V. feed rate of coal to the boiler, and
vi. documentation of any feed rate limitation, if applicable.
j. The Permittee shall maintain a flyash briquette combustion logbook onsite with the following information:
i. daily quantity of flyash briquettes combusted, and
ii. daily recordkeeping is only required on days in which briquettes are burned.
Reporting
a. Within 30 days after each calendar year,the following shall be reported:
i. the total amount of the flyash briquettes burned, and
ii. the chemical composition datasheet and/or MSDS for each shipment of flyash briquettes received
during that calendar year.
b. Prior to combustion for the first time, the Permittee shall submit an analysis of the used oil and
unadulterated oil equivalency determination for approval.
c. Within 30 days after the end of each calendar year, the Permittee shall submit a report of the number of
gallons of used oil combusted and an analysis of the used oil.
d. Within 30 days after the initial use of each of these permitted alternative fuels and plant wastes, the
Permittee shall submit in writing the type of fuel or plant waste and the date in which the material was first
used in the boilers.
