8. Stipulation Review
2D .0202 "Registration of Air Pollution Sources"
This Rule gives the Director the authority to require the registration of air pollution sources, and
require them to submit information about the source. It is under this Rule that the Division is
requiring facilities to submit an emissions inventory 90 days before their air quality permit expires.
2D .0515— "Particulates from Miscellaneous Industrial Processes"
This rule applies to all of the sources at the facility. For process rates greater than 30 tons per hour,
the allowable emission rates for particulate is calculated
E= 55.0(P)o.ii_ 40
"E" equals the maximum allowable emission rate for particulate matter in pounds per hour and"P"
equals the process rate in tons per hour.
Perdue is expected to comply with 2D.0515.
2D.0516- "Sulfur Dioxide Emissions from Combustion Sources"
Sulfur dioxide emissions from the grain dryer shall not exceed 2.3 pounds per million Btu heat
input. The facility only burns natural gas and LPG in the dryer. The SO2 emissions can be
considered negligible.
2D.0521 - "Control of Visible Emissions"
The grain dryer was installed in 2005 (permit revision R06), so its opacity limit is 20% . All of the
rest of the permitted sources were in existence prior to 1971. It does not appear that they have been
modified or replaced since 1971, so they have a 40%opacity limit. No visible emissions problems
have been documented at the facility during inspection in the last 5 years.

21D .0535 - "Notification Requirement"
The facility must report instances of excess emissions that last for more than four hours that result
from either a malfunction or any other abnormal condition. The facility has not reported any
excess emissions,therefore all operations are assumed to be running efficiently. Compliance with
this rule is expected.
2D .0540- 'Particulates from Fugitive Dust Emission Sources"
The facility must not cause or allow fugitive dust to travel beyond the property boundary creating
substantive complaints or excess visible emissions. Fugitive dust is defined as particulate not
involved in a process,essentially dust from stockpiles,parking lots,roads,etc. No dust complaints
have been received in the past.
2D .0611 "Fabric Filter Requirements"
The facility must perform an annual internal inspection (for each 12 month period following the
initial inspection) of the bagfilter system and perform maintenance as recommended by the
manufacturer. All maintenance activities shall be recorded in the logbook. The logbook (in
written or electronic format) shall be kept on-site and made available to DAQ personnel upon
request.
2D .0611 "Cyclone Requirements"
The facility must perform an annual internal inspection (for each 12 month period following the
initial inspection) of the cyclone system and perform maintenance as recommended by the
manufacturer. All maintenance activities shall be recorded in the logbook. The logbook (in
written or electronic format) shall be kept on-site and made available to DAQ personnel upon
request.
2D .1806 "Control and Prohibition of Odorous Emissions"
The facility may not operate without implementing management practices or installing and
operating odor control equipment sufficient to prevent odorous emissions that would go past the
property boundary and create a nuisance. No odor complaints have been received in the past.
9. Permit Review Conclusion
Recommend issuance of Air Quality Permit No. 03107/R18.
