exceed any allowances that the facility lawfully holds under Title IV of the Federal Clean Air Act.
GG. Air Pollution Emergency Episode[15A NCAC 02D.0300]
Should the Director of the DAQ declare an Air Pollution Emergency Episode,the Permittee will be required to operate in
accordance with the Permittee's previously approved Emission Reduction Plan or,in the absence of an approved plan,with
the appropriate requirements specified in 15A NCAC 02D.0300.
HH. Registration of Air Pollution Sources[15A NCAC 02D.0202]
The Director of the DAQ may require the Permittee to register a source of air pollution. If the Permittee is required to
register a source of air pollution,this registration and required information will be in accordance with 15A NCAC 02D
.0202(b).
II. Ambient Air Quality Standards[15A NCAC 02D.0501(c)]
In addition to any control or manner of operation necessary to meet emission standards specified in this permit,any source
of air pollution shall be operated with such control or in such manner that the source shall not cause the ambient air quality
standards in 15A NCAC 02D.0400 to be exceeded at any point beyond the premises on which the source is located. When
controls more stringent than named in the applicable emission standards in this permit are required to prevent violation of
the ambient air quality standards or are required to create an offset,the permit shall contain a condition requiring these
controls.
JJ. General Emissions Testing and Reporting Requirements[15A NCAC 02Q.0508(i)(16)]
Emission compliance testing shall be by the procedures of Section.2600,except as may be otherwise required in Rules
.0524, .1110,or.1111 of Subchapter 02D. If emissions testing is required by this permit or the DAQ or if the Permittee
submits emissions testing to the DAQ to demonstrate compliance for emission sources subject to Rules.0524, .1110,or
.1111,the Permittee shall provide and submit all notifications,conduct all testing,and submit all test reports in accordance
with the requirements of 15A NCAC 02D.0524, .1110,or.1111,as applicable. Otherwise,if emissions testing is required
by this permit or the DAQ or if the Permittee submits emissions testing to the DAQ to demonstrate compliance,the
Permittee shall perform such testing in accordance with 15A NCAC 02D.2600 and follow the procedures outlined below:
1. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for air emission testing protocols to be provided to the Director
prior to air pollution testing.Testing protocols are not required to be pre-approved by the Director prior to air
pollution testing. The Director shall review air emission testing protocols for pre-approval prior to testing if
requested by the owner or operator at least 45 days before conducting the test.
2. Any person proposing to conduct an emissions test to demonstrate compliance with an applicable standard shall
notify the Director at least 15 days before beginning the test so that the Director may at his option observe the test.
3. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for controlling and measuring the production rates during the
period of air testing.The owner or operator of the source shall ensure that the equipment or process being tested is
operated at the production rate that best fulfills the purpose of the test.The individual conducting the emission test
shall describe the procedures used to obtain accurate process data and include in the test report the average
production rates determined during each testing period.
4. Two copies of the final air emission test report shall be submitted to the Director not later than 30 days after sample
collection unless otherwise specified in the specific conditions. The owner or operator may request an extension to
submit the final test report.The Director shall approve an extension request if he finds that the extension request is a
result of actions beyond the control of the owner or operator.
a. The Director shall make the final determination regarding any testing procedure deviation and the validity of the
compliance test.The Director may:
i. Allow deviations from a method specified under a rule in this Section if the owner or operator of the source
being tested demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director that the specified method is inappropriate for
the source being tested.
ii. Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative method is
necessary to secure more reliable test data.

Air Permit 03449T52
Page 54
iii. Prescribe or approve methods on an individual basis for sources or pollutants for which no test method is
specified in this Section if the methods can be demonstrated to determine compliance of permitted emission
sources or pollutants.
b. The Director may authorize the Division of Air Quality to conduct independent tests of any source subject to a
rule in this Subchapter to determine the compliance status of that source or to verify any test data submitted
relating to that source.Any test conducted by the Division of Air Quality using the appropriate testing
procedures described in Section 02D .2600 has precedence over all other tests.
KK. Reopening for Cause[15A NCAC 02Q.0517]
1. A permit shall be reopened and revised under the following circumstances:
a. additional applicable requirements become applicable to a facility with remaining permit term of three or more
years;
b. additional requirements(including excess emission requirements)become applicable to a source covered by Title
IV;
c. the Director or EPA finds that the permit contains a material mistake or that inaccurate statements were made in
establishing the emissions standards or other terms or conditions of the permit;or
d. the Director or EPA determines that the permit must be revised or revoked to assure compliance with the
applicable requirements.
2. Any permit reopening shall be completed or a revised permit issued within 18 months after the applicable requirement
is promulgated. No reopening is required if the effective date of the requirement is after the expiration of the permit
term unless the term of the permit was extended pursuant to 15A NCAC 02Q.0513(c).
3. Except for the state-enforceable only portion of the permit,the procedures set out in 15A NCAC 02Q.0507,.0521,or
.0522 shall be followed to reissue the permit. If the State-enforceable only portion of the permit is reopened,the
procedures in 15A NCAC 02Q.0300 shall be followed. The proceedings shall affect only those parts of the permit for
which cause to reopen exists.
4. The Director shall notify the Permittee at least 60 days in advance of the date that the permit is to be reopened,except
in cases of imminent threat to public health or safety the notification period may be less than 60 days.
5. Within 90 days,or 180 days if the EPA extends the response period,after receiving notification from the EPA that a
permit needs to be temunated,modified,or revoked and reissued,the Director shall send to the EPA a proposed
determination of termination,modification,or revocation and reissuance,as appropriate.
LL. Reporting Requirements for Non-Operating Equipment[15A NCAC 02Q.0508(i)(16)]
The Permittee shall maintain a record of operation for permitted equipment noting whenever the equipment is taken from
and placed into operation. When permitted equipment is not in operation,the requirements for testing,monitoring,and
recordkeeping are suspended until operation resumes.
MM.Fugitive Dust Control Requirement[15A NCAC 02D.0540]
As required by 15A NCAC 02D.0540"Particulates from Fugitive Dust Emission Sources,"the Permittee shall not cause or
allow fugitive dust emissions to cause or contribute to substantive complaints or excess visible emissions beyond the
property boundary.If substantive complaints or excessive fugitive dust emissions from the facility are observed beyond the
property boundaries for six minutes in any one hour(using Reference Method 22 in 40 CFR,Appendix A),the owner or
operator may be required to submit a fugitive dust plan as described in 02D.0540(f).
"Fugitive dust emissions"means particulate matter from process operations that does not pass through a process stack or
vent and that is generated within plant property boundaries from activities such as:unloading and loading areas,process
areas,stockpiles,stockpile working,plant parking lots,and plant roads(including access roads and haul roads).
NN.Specific Permit Modifications[15A NCAC 02Q.0501 and.0523]

a. a description of the change at the facility;
b. the date on which the change will occur;
C. any change in emissions;and
d. any permit term or condition that is no longer applicable as a result of the change.
In addition to this notification requirement,with the next significant modification or Air Quality Permit renewal,the
Permittee shall submit a page"E5"of the application forms signed by the responsible official verifying that the
application for the 502(b)(10)change/modification,is true,accurate,and complete. Further note that modifications
made pursuant to 502(b)(10)do not relieve the Permittee from satisfying preconstruction requirements.
00.Third Party Participation and EPA Review[15A NCAC 02Q.0521,.0522 and.0525(7)]
For permits modifications subject to 45-day review by the federal Environmental Protection Agency(EPA), EPA's
decision to not object to the proposed permit is considered final and binding on the EPA and absent a third party petition,
the failure to object is the end of EPA's decision-making process with respect to the revisions to the permit. The time
period available to submit a public petition pursuant to 15A NCAC 02Q.0518 begins at the end of the 45-day EPA
review period.
