This letter is to remind you that Air Permit No. 03107R17 will expire on May 31,2022. Your permit renewal

In both cases,a Certification Form with the date and time of submittal on the top of the form, signed by your
facility's legally Responsible Official along with one copy of the supporting documentation,which includes
calculations and emission factor references to demonstrate how emissions were calculated(show your work),must
be postmarked to this Office by the same due date.
Furthermore, if you are requesting information to be held as confidential,you must submit written justification as to
how the information you have marked confidential should be held as such. This request must include the following:
a. How the information meets the definition of"Trade Secret"per NCGS 132-1.2 and NCGS 66-152(3);
b. How the information is not"Emissions Data" as defined in 40 CFR 2.301;
c. How your facility would be affected if the information is disclosed; and
d. How the information is protected at your facility.
Only one copy of those pages which contain confidential information is required to be submitted. Additional
information concerning confidential business information can be found at
https://files.nc.gov/ncdeq/Air%20Quality/permits/memos/public records flyer final.pdf. You are strongly
encouraged to read the linked document prior to submitting confidential information to NC DAQ.
A complete air permit renewal application must contain the completed FORM A and a completed air
emissions inventory. Incomplete submittals will not be accepted and there will be no extensions.
Facsimiles (faxes)will not be accepted as an original submittal. Facilities failing to comply with this
requirement by the stated deadline are subject to enforcement action pursuant to NCGS § 143-215.114. If you
submit any information via US mail,we strongly urge that you use "return receipt requested" (e.g. certified
mail), so you have a record if there are any questions or a dispute regarding receipt of the submittal.
You are encouraged to consider pollution prevention as a potential way to reduce emissions and possibly qualify
your facility or emission unit(s) for permit exemption pursuant to 15A NCAC 2Q .0102. If you need assistance in
identifying pollution prevention opportunities at your facility,you may contact the Division of Environmental
Assistance and Customer Service(DEACS) at 1-877-623-6748

that provide free, confidential pollution prevention opportunity assessments to help NC businesses and industries
reduce air emissions and releases to other environmental media.
