Compliance with this permit condition is indicated. 1. Condition A. 13. Avoidance Condition for Area Sources Subject to 40 CFR 63 Subpart JJJJJJ 61 -hi accordance with 15A NCAC 2Q .0317,the permittee is avoiding applicability of 40 CFR 63 Subpart JJJJJJ(6J) "Industrial,Commercial,and Institutional Boilers Area Sources." The permittee is permitted to operate a natural gas/No. 2 fuel oil- fired boilers (ID Nos. ES-133,ES-134 and ES-135). Per 40 CFR 63.11195(e),these sources are exempt from this subpart because they are defined as gas-fired boiler in 40 CFR 63.11237. In order to maintain this exemption,the permittee is allowed to fire liquid fuel only during periods of gas curtailment, gas supply interruptions, startups,or for periodic testing on liquid fuel(periodic testing not to exceed a combined total of 48 hours during any calendar year). i. The permittee shall maintain records that document the time periods when liquid fuel is fired and reasons the liquid fuel is fired. ii. If the permittee fires liquid fuel for reasons other than gas curtailment,gas supply interruptions, startups, or for periodic testing on liquid fuel,the Permittee is no longer exempt from Subpart JJJJJJ(6J). As required by 40 CFR 62.11225(g),the Permittee must provide notice within 30 days of the fuel switch. The notification must identify: Greif Packaging,LLC—CorrChoice Concord February 15,2022 Page 12 A. The name of the owner or operator of the affected source,the location of the source,the boiler(s)that have switched fuels, and the date of the notice. B. The date upon which the fuel switch occurred. C. As required by 40 CFR 63.11210(h),the permittee must demonstrate compliance within 180 days of the effective date of the fuel switch. Observed. NCDAQ received the initial notification form from this facility on September 13,2011, stating that the existing boilers(ID Nos. ES-B3 and ES-B4; considered existing if constructed before June 4,2010) combusts natural gas and only uses No. 2 fuel oil as a back-up during periods of gas curtailment,gas supply interruptions, startups, and for periodic testing(not to exceed a combined total of 48 hours for each boiler during any calendar year). The boiler(ID No. ES-B5) is considered a new area source per NESHAP area boiler GACT Subpart JJJJJJ(6J), since it commenced construction after June 4,2010. During the permitting process of this boiler(ID No. ES-B5),this company chose to avoid NESHAP Subpart 6J boiler GACT by only burning No. 2 fuel oil during times of curtailment, emergencies and periodic testing. The startup of this boiler firing No. 2 fuel oil occurred on July 26,2016. No curtailment or supply interruption of natural gas to the three boilers(ID Nos. ES-133, ES-B4 and ES-B5) occurred during 2020 calendar year to present date. The periodic testing of each boiler on No. 2 fuel oil is conducted for 30 minutes once a month. The periodic testing of the three boilers on No. 2 fuel oil was each less than 48 hours from 2020 calendar year to present date. Therefore,the three boilers(ID Nos.
