Inspection Observations:
On 01/26/2022 I conducted a Compliance Assurance Visit(CAV)to Roanoke Chowan Ready Mix located
in Ahoskie,NC. I met with Rhetta Waters,President, at the office in the front of the facility. Mrs. Waters
told me that the plant was not operating and that Linda Williams, Plant Operator was not on site. Ms.
Williams runs the plant and keeps the logs book. The equipment appeared to be in good condition and well
maintained. There have been no complaints recorded with the DAQ since the last visit. No fugitive or
Visible Emissions (VE) were observed during the visit. No odors were detected leaving the facility. The
facility produced 3,272.50 cubic yards of concrete in 2021,
Regulatory Review:
2D .0202-Registration of Air Pollution Sources:
The Director has the authority to require the registration of air pollution sources and require them to submit
information about the source. Compliance is indicated.
2D .0515-Particulates from Miscellaneous Processes:
Based on the materials submitted during the permit recession, the facility does not emit enough PM to be
subject to permitting. No VE or evidence of any PM emissions were observed from the facility during the
visit. Proper operation and maintenance of the fabric filter will also ensure compliance. Compliance is
indicated.
2D .0521 -Control of Visible Emissions:
Visible emissions from the permitted sources shall not be more than 20% opacity when averaged over a
six-minute period. The plant was not in operation at the time of the inspection therefore no visible
emissions were observed. Compliance is indicated.

2D .0535-Excessive Emissions Reporting and Malfunctions:
The facility has never reported emissions from a malfunction, and no incidences have been recorded in the
WARO file. Compliance is expected.
2D .0540-Particulates from Fugitive Non-Process 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 the plant was not in operation. The company runs a watering truck during the
summer dry months to minimize fugitive dust. At the time of the visit the facility was not in operation and
the yard was wet from recent rains,no fugitive emissions were observed. Compliance is indicated.
2D .0611 -Fabric Filter Requirements:
The rule requires that maintenance and inspections be conducted on the bagfilter in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations and the results must be documented in a logbook(written or electronic).
The last annual inspection was conducted in November of 2021 when the plant was winterized. No
deficiencies were noted in their logbook. The facility had a handwritten logbook that showed that the
pollution control devices were inspected monthly. Compliance is indicated.
Compliance History(5-year):
A review of the files did not indicate any non-compliance issues during the past five years.
Compliance Statement:
The facility appeared to operate in compliance with all applicable Federal and State air quality rules and
regulations at the time of the visit.
