2) Safety Considerations
Standard DAQ safety equipment required. While driving into facility,watch for trucks entering
and exiting; during inspection,be alert for trucks/railcars in receiving and load out areas.
3) Facility and Process Description
The facility blends mineral supplements with various feedstocks including rendered animal
proteins, feather meal, and other ingredients. It was determined during the 2016 DAQ inspection
of this facility that the mineral additives used do not contain any of the compounds that would
trigger NESHAP Subpart 7D"Area Source Standards for Prepared Feeds Manufacturing".As a
result,the facility is not subject to NESHAP 71). However,the facility has asked to keep the 7D
stipulation in their Air Permit to remain consistent with other Perdue AgriBusiness facilities.
There is still a hammermill on-site, however, it is non-operational, and all associated ductwork
and control devices have been removed.

6) Inspection Summary
Ms. Green informed me that it would not be possible to tour the entire facility while observing required
6 ft social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic. My inspection was limited to reviewing
maintenance records and viewing chutes from a distance. I observed the rail and truck receiving areas
and the associated bagfilter CD-4. The truck-receiving pit was not operating at the time of inspection.
The receiving areas looked well maintained. The bagfilters appeared to be well maintained and without
issues.
I observed little dust accumulation, and the required housekeeping appeared to be conducted regularly.
