SUBJECT: Rescission Request
Application No. 0200099.22A
Harris Manufacturing, Inc.
Facility ID: 0200099, Taylorsville,Alexander County
Permit Class: Small
Permit No. 10074RO I
Dear Mr. Harris:
The Division of Air Quality has reviewed your letter and supporting documentation received
December 6, 2022 requesting rescission of Permit No. 10074RO L
Based on this information, the facility does qualify for exemption from permitting since the facility
is currently classified as "small' and the facility-wide actual emissions of particulate matter
(PM10), sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds,carbon monoxide, hazardous
air pollutants (HAP), and toxic air pollutants (TAP), from previous years, each has been less than
five (5) tons per year and the total actual aggregate emissions of these pollutants have been less than
10 tons per year. The letter also indicated that there are no future plans to make any changes that
would increase emissions above these exemption thresholds.
Therefore, in accordance with your request,Air Quality Permit No. 10074ROI is hereby rescinded,
effective the date of this letter. It should be noted that this exemption from permitting does not
exempt Harris Manufacturing, Inc. from complying with the applicable emission control standards.

Furthermore, should you decide to modify the processes such that the result is an increase of
emissions above the emission thresholds given above, an Air Quality Permit may be required and
Harris Manufacturing, Inc. should contact this Regional Office prior to such actions for a permit or
registration applicability determination.
This exemption from the permitting requirement is based upon your statement that this facility has
been and will be operated under the threshold levels as outlined in the Regulation NCAC 2Q
.0102(d). Please be advised that the operation of any air pollution emission sources which results in
increased emissions in excess of the threshold levels specified in 15ANCAC 2Q.0102(d)without an
Air Quality Permit is a violation of 15A NCAC 2Q.0101, "Required Air Quality Permits." If this
facility is required to obtain an Air Quality permit in the future because of increased emissions, each
day of operation of the emission sources without an Air Quality Permit represents a separate
violation. Such violations may be subject to enforcement action pursuant to NCGS 143-215.114A.
Please be aware that even though your facility may no longer be subject to permitting requirements,
the operations must still comply with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations. The
attached Facility Compliance Tracking Checklist may be of help to you in verifying you remain in
compliance with certain federal and state regulations. It may also aid in determining if you remain
below the emissions threshold. You may use this checklist at your discretion as it is intended to be
used as a guidance document only. Furthermore, it is DAQ's intent to periodically conduct
compliance assurance visits at exempt facilities. If you have any questions with reference to the
above matter,please do not hesitate to contact Jennifer Manning at 704-235-2224.
Sincerely,
