Facility Summary
This facility is a peanut roasting operation. It receives raw peanuts (in-shell) and salts, dries, roasts, packages,
and ships them. The facility operates seven days per week(as orders require) and employs—60 personnel. The
peanut processing plant across the street it also owned and operated by the same company. Paul Britton is in
charge of that facility as well.
Facility Safety
The standard PPE is recommended: hard hat, safety shoes, safety glasses, and hearing protection. Some or all
will be required in different parts of the plant.

Inspection Comments
On May 15,2018,Doug Byrd and Samantha Mellott of DAQ-WaRO conducted a compliance inspection of the
facility,with the assistance of Mr. Charles Williams. A review of the cyclone maintenance log showed that the
cyclones, associated blowers, and ductwork are inspected every month for structural integrity. Any maintenance
that might be required is also documented on the log sheets. In addition, a daily operational inspection is conducted
and documented to ensure that the discharge from the cyclones is considered"normal".
Mr. Williams escorted me through the facility. We started by looking at the dump pit(DP-1)which was not in use.
No VE was observed.
Due to decreased production, only one cyclone was in use during the inspection with no VE observed.
The cyclones were upgraded to stainless steel about thirteen years ago. Overall,the facility appeared to be well
maintained.
Mr. Williams stated that the"in-shell"facility would be closing on May 31, 2018 and the Air Quality Permit will
be rescinded soon after. He stated that the process will be moved to the Severn Plant(out of this Region)which
already has an"in-shell"process in place. The"out-of-shell"process that is currently in Edenton will remain. The
decreased production is due to this process having started.

Regulatory Review
21). 0515 - "Particulates From Miscellaneous Industrial Processes"
All equipment has processing capacities less than 30 tons per hour. The maximum allowable emissions
rates are determined by the equation:
E = 4.10 * (P
2D .0515 Controlled
Process rate allowable Emissions Uncontrolled
Source (tph) emissions (lb/hr) (lb/hr) Emissions (lb/hr)
Inshell Roasting (RO-1) 3 8.56 4.17 41.70
Salted Inshell Operation(RO-2) 3 8.56 4.17 41.70
Peanut Dryer(D-2) 1.8 6.08 1.72 17.20
Peanut Roaster(R-1) 3 8.56 4.80 4.80
With the use of the permitted control devices, particulate emissions should not exceed threshold
according to the calculations shown above. Compliance is expected.
21) .0516 - "Sulfur Dioxide Emissions from Combustion Sources"
This requirement applies to dryer and the roasters. Since the burners in these units are fueled by natural
gas, the sulfur content is very low and negligible S02 in produced. Compliance is indicated.
21) .0521 - "Control of Visible Emissions"
There was no evidence of visible emission observed during the inspection. Combusting natural gas as a
fuel emits low levels of particulates. The cyclones appeared to be maintained in good condition.
Compliance is indicated.
2D.0535 - "Excess Emissions Reporting and Malfunctions"
The facility is required to report excess emissions that last for more than four hours that result from a
malfunction, a breakdown of process or control equipment or any other abnormal conditions. No excess
emissions have been reported. Compliance is indicated.
21) .0540 - "Particulates from Fugitive Dust Emission Sources"
"Fugitive non-process dust emissions"means particulate matter that is not collected by a capture
system and is generated from areas such as pit areas, process areas, haul roads, stockpiles, and
plant roads. At the time of the inspection, I saw no evidence of any fugitive non-process dust
emissions. It should be noted that most of the yard is paved. Compliance is indicated.
21) .1806 - "Control and Prohibition of Odorous Emissions"
The owner or operator of a facility subject to this Rule shall not operate the facility without
implementing management practices sufficient to prevent odorous emissions from the facility from
causing or contributing to objectionable odors beyond the facility boundary. No odor complaints have
G:\AQ\Shared\Chowan2l\00028\20180515.al6.docx 3
been received concerning the facility and no strong odors were present during the inspection.
Compliance is indicated.
20 .0315 "Synthetic Minor Facilities"
To avoid being regulated as a major source, the permit requires inspections and maintenance be
performed on the cyclones. The facility presented maintenance logs for the cyclones; there is a regular
inspection/maintenance program established. The last"annual" inspection was performed in 2018.
Compliance is indicated.
Compliance History (5-years)
The facility has no history of complaints or violations for at least the last five years.
Clean Air Act Section 112(r) Requirements
The facility does not store, handle, or utilize applicable materials in quantities for this requirement to
apply.
Comments
The facility appeared to operate in compliance with all applicable air quality regulations and permit
conditions at the time of inspection.
