I INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose
This document serves as the 1st Half 2020 Title V Semi-Annual Report(SAR)prepared for the
Anson County Waste Management Facility(ACWMF). This report has been prepared to satisfy
the requirements of the existing Title V Operating Permit(Air Quality Permit No.9835T04).
1.2 Applicability
This facility has not yet exceeded the 34 Mg/yr threshold; therefore, neither the GCCS nor the
candlestick flare is required for installation at this facility. ACWMF currently satisfies the
requirements of 40 CFR 60, Subpart XXX and via Tier 2 Testing. At this time,the facility is not
required to comply with the requirements of 40 CFR 63,Subpart AAAA(Landfill MACT).
1.3 Permitted Emission Sources and Pollution Control Devices
The primary emission source for this facility is municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF). The
primary control devices for this facility are the Landfill Gas Collection and Control System(GCCS)
and the 2,500 scfm candle-stick flare skid. Though neither the GCCS nor the candlestick flare are
required to be installed at this time,these control devices are voluntarily operated.
1.4 Statement of Certification by Responsible Official
In accordance with the requirements of Title V Permit Condition 3.Q, we have included a
certification by P the Responsible Official.
1, the undersigned, certify that, based on information and belief formed after reasonable inquiry,
the statements and information in the document are true,accurate,and complete.

2 SPECIFIC LIMITATIONS AND CONDITIONS
2.1 Emissions Sources and Control Devices
The following information details the specific conditions associated with the emission source
[MSWLF(ES-1] and associated air pollution control devices [GCCS (GCCS-1)and Candlestick
Flare(CD-1)].
2.1.1 Emission Source Limits and Standards
In accordance with the requirements of Section 2.1-A.1 of the existing Title V Permit,no
sulfur dioxide emissions have been recorded that exceed the 2.3 lb/MMBTU limit.
Additionally,no visible emissions in excess of 20%opacity as specified in 15A NCAC
213.0521 have been recorded at ACWMF during this reporting period. Moreover,based on
the most recent Tier 2 Test Report submitted on 2/26/19 for compliance with NSPS XXX,the
NMOC emission rate is less than 34 Mg/yr.
2.1.2 Notifications, Test Methods,and Procedures
Test notifications,methods,and procedures indicated in Section 2.1-A.3.a and Section 2.1-
A.3.b of the existing Title V Permit,have been addressed for this reporting period. Any
future Tier 2 testing and notifications required,will be performed on or before December 27,
2023 in accordance with 40 CFR 60.764 as specified in Section 2.1-A.3.i of the existing Title
V Permit.
2.1.3 Standards for Air Emissions from MSW Landfills
At this time,the NMOC emission rate for ACWMF falls below the 34 Mg/yr threshold;
therefore,no Landfill Gas Collection and Control System Design Plan(GCCSDP)is required
at this time. In the event that the NMOC emission rate is reported to exceed the 34 Mg/yr
threshold,a GCCSDP will be prepared by a professional engineer who is registered in the
state of North Carolina. The GCCSDP will be prepared to comply with the requirements of
Section 2.1-A.3.b of the existing Title V Permit. At this time,only the requirements of
Section 2.1-A.3.i and Section 2.1-A.3.q are applicable because no GCCS is required.
2-1

2.1.4 Monitoring and Record-Keeping Requirements
For this reporting period,as specified in Section 2.1-A.3.q,ACWMF,the following up-to-
date,readily accessible,records(electronic or hard-copy)are either maintained onsite or as
off-site records that are retrievable within 4 hours:
• The Design Capacity Report which triggered §60.762(b);
• The current amount of solid waste in place;
• Year-by-year waste acceptance
The foregoing documents will be maintained onsite for at least five(5)years.
2.1.5 Reporting
Based on the results of the most recent Tier 2 Test and the 2019 Annual NMOC Emission
Rate Report,the facility is only required to submit the typical six-month summary reports
required by Section 2.1-A.3.ee of the existing Title V Permit.
Additionally,as required by 40 CFR 60,767(b)(1)(ii)and USEPA Determination Letter dated
11/18/15. ACWMF will submit either 5-Year or annual NMOC emission rate reports.
2.2 Control of Visible Emissions
Section 2 of the existing Title V Permit addresses visible emissions from the existing candlestick
flare(ES-1). Based on observations by site personnel,the candlestick flare(ES-1)has not
displayed an opacity greater than 20%when averaged over a six-minute period during this
reporting period. The existing candlestick flare(ES-1)operates on Landfill gas(LFG);therefore,
no monitoring,record-keeping,or reporting is required for visible emissions.
2-2

2.3 Toxic Air Pollutant Emission Limitation and Reporting Requirement(Flare)
Section 5.a of the existing Title V Permit stipulate that the following emission limits cannot be
exceeded:
DESCRIPTION TOXIC AIR POLLUTANT EMISSIONS LIMIT
Landfill (ES-1) Fugitive Benzene 108.62 Ib/yr
Emissions Hydrogen Chloride -------------------
Hydrogen Sulfide 3.16 Ib/day
Vinyl Chloride 96.56 lb/yr
Candlestick Flare (CD-1) Benzene 5.26 Ib/yr
Hydrogen Chloride 0.59 Ib/hr
Hydrogen Sulfide 0.15 Ibs/day
Vinyl Chloride 4.66 Ib/yr
Based on the LFG generation rate of the landfill and the average LFG extraction rate of the flare,
the foregoing emission limitations have not been exceeded.
2.4 Toxic Air Pollutant Emission Limitation Requirement(Facility-Wide)
Section 6 of the existing Title V Permit stipulate that the facility-wide actual emissions, including
fugitives,do not exceed the Toxic Permit Emission Rates(TPERs) listed in 15A NCAC 2Q.0711.
Based on the LFG generation rate of the landfill and the average LFG extraction rate of the flare,
the TPERS have not been exceeded.
