I. DIRECTIONS TO SITE:
Triangle Brick is located on US 52 about 4 miles north of Wadesboro, NC, Anson County. From FRO,
take US 401(Raeford Rd.) south to US 74; turn right onto US 74 West. Follow US 74 thru Wadesboro.
On the west side of Wadesboro, turn right, following US 52 north. Go approximately 4 miles and turn
right into the first facility entrance;the office is located on the left. Check opacities prior to entering(kiln
stacks,openings in bldg.with grinders).
IL SAFETY:
Safety glasses and shoes required; hard hat and ear protection optional. An operating kiln is hot to touch;
exiting bricks and cars are hot. Keep hands out of brick-making mechanisms, grinders and extruders.
III. FACILITY DESCRIPTION:
Triangle Brick Company- Wadesboro is the second largest brick plant in the country. They make a
variety of bricks from clay and shale mined onsite. The material they mine is a consistent mixture of clay
and shale. As the material is mined, it is trucked up the hill to the facility where it is fed through a sizing
grate. The smaller material passes via conveyors to the storage shelter and the oversized material goes
through a jaw crusher to reduce the size and then continues to the storage shelter. There are two plants on
site and the material from the storage shelter feeds both. From the storage shelter material is scooped into
a feeder,run through a scalper(oversized material goes to hammer mill)then material (the consistency of
cornmeal) is conveyed to storage silos. From the storage silos,the material is sent through two pug mills
in series where it is combined with water and mixed to an even consistency then fed through a machine
that extrudes the brick in a slab. The slabs are treated with a decorative coating(carrying agent is a
sawdust/loam mixture), cut into individual bricks and then loaded on a`car' for transport through the
dryer and kilns. Hydrogen Fluoride from the kilns is controlled by a dry lime adsorber(DLA) installed
on each kiln. The firing takes more than two days. After firing the bricks are packaged into skid loads
(by a very cool robot) and stored prior to purchase and shipment.
IV. INSPECTION SUMMARY:
On 10 September 2020, I, Evangelyn Lowery-Jacobs, of DAQ FRO,met with Mr. Paul Gibson,the Plant
Manager, and Mr. Tommy Meggs, Kiln Supervisor to conduct the annual compliance inspection.
Triangle is currently operating Kiln 91 (K-1) at approx. 12 tons/hr. each. Kiln #2 (K-2)has not operated
since April 2020, resulting in a decrease in employees. The facility started operating the dry lime
adsorber(DLA)on K-2 in August 2016 in advance of their compliance date(September 4,2016)for the
case-by-case MACT for brick manufacturing. They started Kiln#1 on 6 February 2017 with the
associated DLA. The facility operates the DLAs on the kilns in order to obtain a Title III(Hazardous Air
Pollutants) synthetic minor(area source)classification,thus avoiding the recently promulgated NESHAP
5J(Brick MACT).
Facility records appeared complete and in accordance with the current requirements outlined in their air
quality permit No. 008179TI 1. Mr. Meggs and Mr. Gibson escorted me on a tour of the facility. Mr.
Meggs directed me to the DLA where he discussed its operation. He detailed factors like feeder rate
settings and the interface used to track the status and settings for the device. Mr. Gibson described the
limestone low level indicator near the base of the limestone hopper and indicated an alarm is set to
activate(visual and audible)when/if the hopper level gets below the low-level indicator. Mr. Gibson
stated that they routinely refill the hopper every 4-6 weeks,well before the level reaches the low-level
indicator. A screw is installed on the DLAs to feed the limestone from the cascades (area where the

Triangle Brick Company-Wadesboro Brick Manufacturing Plant
Compliance Inspection Report
Page 3 of 12
limestone is reacted with the exhaust stream)to the peeling drum where the outer layer of limestone is
"peeled off." The peeling(dust) is dropped to a collection container and the unreacted limestone is blown
back up to the hopper to pass through the cascades again. The feeder settings activate the peeling drum
on 30 min, off 30 min; screw is on 2 min, off 2 min while the peeling drum is operating.
Kiln K-1 was operating during the inspection. During the facility tour,I observed no visible emissions
from any of the operating emission sources.

VII. APPLICABLE AIR QUALITY REGULATIONS:
A. 15A NCAC 2D .0515 PARTICULATES FROM MISCELLANEOUS INDUSTRIAL
PROCESSES—Particulate emissions from each kiln, K-1 and K-2, shall not exceed 39.14
lbs./hour at a production rate of 29 tons/hour(4.1 x P 0,67). The Permittee shall perform a semi-
annual visual inspection of kiln emissions ductwork and a semi-annual visual inspection of the
kiln's fuel combustion system and send semiannual summary reports to DAQ.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—Facility operates on NG with No. 2 fuel oil as backup. The PM
emission rate determined from the 9113116 test was 3.78 lb.1hr. The facility was operating at 25.17
TPH with DLA control. The calculated PMemission limit at this operating rate is 35.6 lb./hr. This
demonstrated emission rate is forfilterable PMonly, but since it is so low it is unlikely the Total
PM emission rate would exceed the limit. During the,inspection, I reviewed I&Mrecords
documenting internal and external inspections that were conducted semi-annually for K-1 on
0711412020 and K-2 on 0711612020. The most recent semiannual report was received on
0712812020 time and appeared complete and valid.
B. 15A NCAC 2D .0516 SULFUR DIOXIDE CONTROL REQUIREMENT—Sulfur dioxide
emissions from each kiln,K-1 and K-2, and from rotary coatings dryer SD-1 shall not exceed 2.3
lbs./MMBtu heat input. For kilns K-1 and K-2,the Permittee shall monitor the sulfur content and
the Btu content of the No. 6 fuel oil through fuel supplier certifications,no monitoring requirements
when using NG or No. 2 fuel oil. Keep quarterly log of fuel certs when using No. 6 fuel oil.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—Kilns K-1 and K-2 normally operate on NG. Kiln K-2 has not
operated since April 2020. Since January 2010, the facility has only used 92 fuel oil as back up
fuel during NG curtailment. The last shipment of No. 6 fuel oil received at the facility(S=1.36%)
was in 2011 and none of it has been combusted to date. The facility did burn approx. 12,600 gals
of 42 fuel oil in Nov 2016 and Jan 2017 due to curtailment. The rotary coatings dryer SD-1 started
operation in June 2005 and is designed to operate solely on natural gas. The AP-42 SO2 emission
factors for NG is 0.0006lb,/MMBtu and for No.2 fuel oil is 0.0231b.IMMBtu. This plant operates
primary on NG; therefore, SO2 emissions are less than any limitation contained in this permit.
C. 15A NCAC 2D .0521 VISIBLE EMISSIONS CONTROL REQUIREMENT—Visible
emissions from kilns K-1 and K-2 shall not be more the 20 percent opacity. The Permittee shall
observe the kiln emission points once each month for normal vs abnormal and submit semiannual
summary reports to DAQ.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—During the inspection, K-1 was operating with 0% VE from the
DLA stacks. The facility continues to log weekly VE observations (surpassing the monthly
requirement), and all have been "normal. " Mr. Meggs indicated the kilns are operated primarily
on natural gas; therefore, normal operations result in no visible emissions. The most recent
semiannual report was received on 0712812020 and appeared complete and valid.
D. 15A NCAC 2D .0524 NEW SOURCE PERFORMANCE STANDARDS SUBPART UUU—
For the Rotary coatings dryer(SD-1): VE shall not be greater than 10%, the Permittee shall observe
the source daily for any VE;the Permittee shall inspect and maintain the rotary coatings dryer in
accordance with the manufacturer's recommendation and shall perform a semi-annual internal
inspection for deterioration, damage and leaks; and submit semi-annual summary reports to DAQ.
APPEARED INCOMPLIANCE—The unit was not operating during the inspection. I reviewed
the logbook of daily VE observations; all were recorded as "normal, "which was defined by the
facility as "No Visible Emissions." The time of each observation is now being recorded as advised

Triangle Brick Company-Wadesboro Brick Manufacturing Plant
Compliance Inspection Report

during a previous inspection. The last semi-annual inspection on the dryer was conducted on
0711412020. The records appeared complete and valid. The most recent semi-annual report was
received on 0712812020 and appeared complete and valid.
E. 15A NCAC 2D .0524 NEW SOURCE PERFORMANCE STANDARDS SUBPART 000—
For the primary crushing plant scalp screens,jaw crushers,and conveyors(ID Nos. PC-3 through
PC-10),the Permittee shall comply with the notification and recordkeeping requirements: dates of
construction, anticipated startup and actual startup; performance test data; and excess emissions
reports. The VE shall not be greater than 10%, except for crushers not greater than 15%; Permittee
shall observe the individual sources monthly for normal vs abnormal VE. Permittee shall submit
semiannual summary reports to DAQ.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—Sources PC-4, 6, 8 &9, have not been installed; therefore,
NSPS notifications have not been submitted. All notifications have been submitted for sources PC-
3, 5, 7, & 10. Monthly observation records appeared complete, indicating "normal,"where
normal is defined by the facility as <10%opacity. These sources are grouped in the logbook, but
VE observations are made at the individual sources. Mr. Gibson stated that he and Mr. Meggs
have been to smoke school to enable them to identify 10%opacity. The most recent semiannual
report was received on 0712812020 and appeared complete and valid.
F. 15A NCAC 2D .0524 NEW SOURCE PERFORMANCE STANDARDS SUBPART 000—
There are two clay grinding operations including: plant scalp screens, finish screens, hammer mill,
storage bins, feeders and conveyors(ID Nos. CG-2 through CG-8 and CG-10 through CG-28); and
scalp screens, finish screens, hammer mill, storage bins, feeders and conveyors(ID Nos. CG-30
through CG-55). The non-stack VE shall not be greater than 10%, except for crushers not greater
than 15%. Permittee shall monthly observe building openings for any VE or source stacks for
normal vs abnormal VE. Permittee shall submit semiannual summary reports to DAQ.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—The facility has chosen to observe the building openings
monthly for any VE. There are two openings to each half of the grinding building(the building has
a dividing wall down the center and two separate clay grinding operations reside in same
building). One conveyor in the grinding operation is in separate building(milling bldg.)from the
rest of the subject sources which require VE observations. Observations are made at both
openings,for each side of the grinding building, and the mill building, monthly. The monthly
observation records all indicated "normal,"which is then defined by the facility as "No Visible
Emissions." Most of the sources in the two buildings were not operating during the inspection, and
zero (0) visible emissions were observed from the building openings. The most recent semiannual
report was received on 0712812020 and appeared complete and valid.
G. 15A NCAC 2D .0524 NEW SOURCE PERFORMANCE STANDARDS SUBPART 000-
For the loam/sawdust preparation area, loam screen, loam crusher, storage bunker, sawdust screen,
and conveyors(ID Nos. LS-2 through LS-12), non-stack VE shall not be greater than 10%except
for crushers not greater than 15%; Permittee shall observe building openings monthly for any VE.
Permittee shall submit semiannual reports to DAQ.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—There are two openings to each half of the grinding building.
Observations are made at both openings,for each side of the grinding building, monthly. The
monthly observation records all indicated "normal,"which is then defined by the facility as "No
Visible Emissions. " The sawdust operations were not operating during the inspection and zero (0)
visible emissions were observed from the building openings. The most recent semiannual report
was received on 0712812020 and appeared complete and valid.

H. 15A NCAC 2D .1100 TOXIC AIR POLLUTION EMISSION LIMITATIONS AND
REPORTING REQUIREMENT—According to the air toxic compliance demonstration,TAP
emissions will not exceed the established emission limits if they are controlled by limiting the
amount of clay and additives processed in each of the kilns,K-1 and K-2, to 58,000 lbs./hour(29
TPH). Quarterly summary reporting to DAQ.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—The facility is currently operating K-I at approx. 12 TPH. K-2
has not operated since April 2020. The highest hourly rate in the last 12 months was
approximately 16 tons for K-1 and 9 tons for K-2. These process rates are below the permit limits
requiring less than 29 TPH and indicates compliance. The most recent semiannual report was
received on 0711612020 and appeared complete and valid.
I. 15A NCAC 2D .1806 CONTROL AND PROHIBITION OF ODOROUS EMISSIONS—The
Permittee shall prevent odorous emissions from the facility from causing or contributing to
objectionable odors beyond the facility's boundary.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—No odor, associated with this facility, was noticed when
entering or exiting the property. DAQ has not received any complaints since the previous
inspection. Mr. Gibson stated that the facility has not received any odor complaints and odorous
material are not part of the brick manufacturing process.
J. 15A NCAC 2Q .0317 AVOIDANCE for MACT—In order to remain classified minor source for
HAPS and avoid MACT requirements, facility emissions of HAPS shall be less than 10 TPY of
each HAP and 25 TPY Total RAPS. Monitoring, Recordkeeping and reporting requirement are
established in permit to demonstrate facility remains minor source for RAPS. These requirements
are summarized below as followed:
Monitoring and Recordkeeping Requirements.
(1) The Permittee shall operate the DLAs (CD-K 1 and K2)when Kilns(K-1 and K-2)are
operating, except during periods of startup, shutdown,or malfunction or during operation in
bypass mode for routine maintenance of the DLAs.
(2) The DLAs shall maintain an adequate amount of limestone.
(3) The same grade of limestone used during the performance shall be used.
(4) The Permittee shall maintain the limestone feeder rate settings at or above the settings
established during the performance test. Monitor and record each day.
(5) The Permittee shall monitor the bypass damper position and document when record when Kilns
are operated when damper is open.
(6) Permittee shall record the production rate on a fired product basis for each Kiln and keep
records.
APPEARED IN COMPLIANCE—Based on prior source test for each Kiln, the HF and HCL
emissions have been measured less than 10125 TPY. This measurement was made with the DLAs
operating to reduce the HAP emissions. The control of HAPS by the DLAs reduce the actual
emissions to less than 10125 TPY HAPS. The facility records were observed and indicate the DLAs
are in use while Kilns are operating. The records indicate that the limestone is tested to
demonstrate quality. Mr. Meggs indicated the facility receives automatic deliveries of limestone
every three weeks. The limestone levels are monitored daily to ensure the amount and feed rate of
limestone is adequate. The bypass vent is observed each day and records indicate it is hard locked

S02emissions. K-1 has quarterly summary reporting of SOZ emissions and fuel combustion
quantities. K-2 has semi-annual summary reporting of SOZ emissions and fuel combustion
quantities.
APPEARED INCOMPLLINCE— The facility burns NG with low sulfur No. 2 fuel oil as back up
only during NG curtailment. The facility was curtailed in Nov 2017 and Jan 2018 and burned
approx. 12,600 gals offuel oil. The facility has not burned any fuel oil; therefore, S02 emissions
are not expected to exceed 250 TPY. The highest hourly rate in the last 12 months was
approximately 16 tons for K-1 and 9 tons for K-2. The most recent report was received on
0712812020 and indicated compliance.
