Site Visit Narrative:
On July 20, 2021, I(Lisa Whitaker)traveled to the facility to confirm continued shut down. When I
arrived on-site, I observed the facility shutdown. The site continues to be gated and posted with no
trespassing signs. All the process equipment has been removed from the site. The last time this facility
was observed in operation by DAQ staff was May 1, 1997.
In 2020, Angela Hopper, of this office, contacted Mr. Travis Barnes regarding resuming operations. Mr.
Travis stated at that time the company has no plans to operate at this site in the new future. No evidence
exists on-site to indicate change of plans for the location.
Permit Exemption:
Permit rescission letter dated April 27, 2017 states: 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 (PMIO), sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds,
carbon monoxide, hazardous air pollutants (HAP), and toxic air pollutants (TAP),from previous years,
are each less than five (S) tons per year, and the total actual aggregate emissions of these pollutants are
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.
Emission Sources:
This facility was previously permitted for the operation of a native granite quarry and processing plant
and included the following equipment. As noted above all process equipment has been removed from the
site.

Five-Year Compliance History:
There have been no documented violations or compliance issues in the last five years.
Stack Test Review:
The facility has no stack test requirements.
112r Review: CLEAN AIR ACT SECTION 112(r)REQUIREMENTS -Pursuant to 15A NCAC 2D
.2100 "Risk Management Program," if the Permittee is required to develop and register a risk
management plan pursuant to Section 112(r) of the Federal Clean Air Act,then the Permittee is required
to register this plan with the USEPA in accordance with 40 CFR Part 68.
RMP Not Required—Vulcan—Toe River Quarry is subject to the 112(r)program general duty clause,but
does not maintain regulated chemicals onsite above the threshold quantities,which would require a risk
management plan.
Conclusion:
At the time of the compliance assurance visit,Vulcan Construction Materials, LLC - Toe River Quarry
continues to remain in shut down with no visible evidence of actions to resume operation. The facility is
found to be in compliance by shutdown.
