promulgated in 40 CFR 63, Subpart JJJJJJ, " National Emission Standards for Hazardous
Air Pollutants for Area Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers",
including Subpart A"General Provisions."
a. Compliance Dates (40 CFR 63.11196) - The owner or operator of an existing source
is required to comply with the tune-up and the energy assessment requirements no
later than March 21,2014. Tune up for ES-Boiler 1 was conducted on December
8`h, 2015. ES-Boiler 1 was not operating on the compliance date of March 21, 2014.
Tune ups for ES-Boiler 2 and ES-Boiler 3 were conducted on March 17`h and March
181h, 2014 (respectively).
b. Compliance Requirements -As required by 15A NCAC 2D .I 111,the Permittee
shall comply with the following requirements:
i. General Duty Clause (40 CFR 63.11205(a)) At all times the Permittee shall
operate and maintain any affected source, including associated air pollution
control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with
safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions.
ii. Boiler Tune-up (40 CFR 63.11223) - An initial boiler tune-up is required by
March 21,2014. If the unit is not operating on the required date for a tune-
up, the tune-up must be conducted within thirty days of startup. The
Permittee shall comply with the following with respect to the tune-up:
A. Periodic tune-ups: A biennial tune-up is required and shall be
conducted no more than 25 months after the previous tune-up.
The following units are only required to conduct a tune-up every five
years: seasonal boilers (shutdown for 7 consecutive months or 210
consecutive days each 12-month period due to seasonal conditions;
only biomass or oil), limited-use boilers, and units with oxygen trim
systems, as defined in 40 CFR 63.11237. Each five-year tune-up must
be conducted within 61 months of the previous tune-up.
B. Fuel required for the tune-up: The permittee shall conduct the tune-up
while burning the type of fuel (or fuels in the case of boilers that
routinely burn two types of fuels at the same time) that provided the
Permit No. 03453R23
Page 8
majority of the heat input to the boiler over the 12 months prior to the
tune-up.
C. As applicable, inspect the burner, and clean or replace any
components of the burner as necessary. The Permittee may delay the
burner inspection until the next scheduled unit shutdown,but must
inspect each burner at least once every 36 months (72 months for 5-
year tune-ups).
D. Inspect the flame pattern, as applicable, and adjust the burner as
necessary to optimize the flame pattern. The adjustment should be
consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, if available.
E. Inspect the system controlling the air-to-fuel ratio, as applicable, and
ensure that it is correctly calibrated and functioning properly. The
Permittee may delay the air to fuel ratio inspection until the next
scheduled unit shutdown, but must conduct the inspection at least
once every 36 months (72 months for 5-year tune-ups).
F. Optimize total emissions of carbon monoxide. This optimization
should be consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, if
available, and with any nitrogen oxide requirement to which the unit
is subject.
G. Measure the concentrations in the effluent stream of carbon monoxide
in parts per million,by volume,and oxygen in volume percent,before
and after the adjustments are made (measurements may be either on a
dry or wet basis, as long as it is the same basis before and after the
adjustments are made). Measurements may be taken with a portable
CO analyzer.
iii. Energy Assessment(40 CFR 63.11214(c)) - A one-time initial energy
assessment is required by March 21,2014. The energy assessment must be
performed by a qualified energy assessor. An energy assessment completed
on or after January 1,2008,that meets or is amended to meet the energy
assessment requirements in this section satisfies the energy assessment
requirement. This energy assessment requirement does not apply to limited
use boilers as defined in 40 CFR 63.11237. A facility that operates under an
energy management program compatible with ISO 50001 that includes the
affected units satisfies the energy assessment requirement. The energy
assessment must include: The one-time initial energy assessment was
conducted on all three boilers on March 5, 2014.
A. A visual inspection of the boiler system.
B. An evaluation of operating characteristics of the facility,
specifications of energy using systems, operating and maintenance
procedures, and unusual operating constraints.
Permit No. 03453R23

C. Inventory of major systems consuming energy from affected boilers
and which are under control of the boiler owner or operator.
D. A review of available architectural and engineering plans, facility
operation and maintenance procedures and logs, and fuel usage.
E. A list of major energy conservation measures that are within the
facility's control.
F. A list of the energy savings potential of the energy conservation
measures identified.
G. A comprehensive report detailing the ways to improve efficiency,the
cost of specific improvements,benefits, and the time frame for
recouping those investments.

reporting requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),the
Permittee is required to NOTIFY the Regional Supervisor,DAQ, in WRITING, of
the following:
i. Initial Notification(per 40 CFR 63.9(b) and 40 CFR 63.11225(a)(2)) is
required by January 20, 2014. Initial Notification for all three boilers was
received on August 29, 2011.
ii. Notification of Compliance Status(40 CFR 63.11225(a)(4)) is required by
July 19,2014.NOCs for all three boilers were received by July 19, 2014.
iii. Compliance Report must be prepared by March 1 of every other-year (or
every five years depending on the frequency of the tune-up requirements)
starting March 1 the year following the first periodic tune-up, and submitted
upon request. The report must meet the requirements of 40 CFR
63.11225(b)(1-2).
d. Recordkeeping Requirements - In addition to any other recordkeeping requirements
of the EPA, the Permittee shall maintain the following records as defined under 40
CFR 63.11225(c):
i. Copies of all required notifications.
ii. Maintain the following records to document conformance with the work
practices, emission reduction measures, and management practices:

up of the boiler.
II. A description of any corrective actions taken as a part of the
tune-up of the boiler.
III. The type and amount of fuel used over the 12 months prior to
the tune-up of the boiler but only if the unit was physically
and legally capable of using more than one type of fuel during
that period. Units sharing a fuel meter may estimate the fuel
use by each unit.
B. A copy the Energy Assessment required by 40 CFR 63.11214(c).
C. Seasonal boilers - For each boiler that meets the definition of seasonal
boiler, you must keep records of days of operation per year.
D. Records of non-waste determinations per 40 CFR 63.11225(c)(2)(ii).
iii. Malfunction Records - Records of the occurrence and duration of each
malfunction of the boiler, or of the associated air pollution control and
monitoring equipment. Records of actions taken during periods of
malfunction to minimize emissions in accordance with the general duty to
minimize emissions in 40 CFR 63.11205(a), including corrective actions to
restore the malfunctioning boiler, air pollution control, or monitoring
equipment to its normal or usual manner of operation.
iv. Record Retention- You must keep each record for 5 years following the date
of each recorded action.
17. LIMITATION TO AVOID 15A NCAC 2Q .0501 - Pursuant to 15A NCAC 2Q .0315

F PM_10 y 100
502 --_—_— 100 -- ---`
NOx- 100
I CO__j -.. — 100 ---- -
To comply with this limit, the Permittee shall follow the requirements listed below.
A. PM-10 LIMIT
BOILER HOURS OF OPERATION LIMITS - In addition to the above control device
requirements of 2D .0611, for the fabric filter, cyclones, and multicyclones, in order to
maintain PM-10 actual emissions less than 100 tons per year, as requested by the Permittee,
Permit No. 03453R23

(a) Boiler ID No. ES-1 shall not operate more than 8,736 hours per year.
(b) Boiler ID No. ES-3 shall not operate more than 4,904 hours per year.
B. S02 LIMIT
To ensure that facility-wide S02 actual emissions are less than 100 tons per year,the amount
