onsite also.
3) Facility and Process Description:
Lisk Sand is a bulk hauling company that specializes in industrial and abrasive material hauling and sand
packaging. The facility receives dried sand from an outside vendor(currently Unimin Corporation in
Richmond County). The sand is offloaded via pneumatic truck into a silo located inside a building. The sand
is then gravity fed to a bagging machine to produce various size packages,which are stacked on pallets prior
to shipping to customers via truck. The facility produces play sand and sandblasting sand products. The silo
filling and packaging operations are controlled by a simple cyclone in series with a cartridge type fabric filter.
There are no fuel combustion devices on site. There are no emergency generators.

5) Compliance Assurance Visit
On 29 October 2020 I,Mike Thomas of FRO DAQ conducted a compliance assurance visit of this facility. I
met with facility contact,Mr.Chris Tucker. Mr.Tucker led me on a tour of the facility. Bagging only occurs
once or twice a week.I verified with Mr. Tucker that the bagging operation still operates as follows:
• the bagging operation is dependent on the supply truck,the silo, and the bagging machine all
working simultaneously.
• The supply truck is attached to the silo and allowed to build pressure(I Opsi)for a few minutes and to
allow partial filling of the silo.
• Once pressure is obtained the bagging machine is started and bag filling proceeds.
The speed and continuous nature of how the system works does not allow for over filling of the silo. In
addition,the two operators have visual cues from the movement of the pneumatic line to the rate of bag
filling to indicate that the system is running at the appropriate pressure. Waste from the baghouse is
collected in covered 50 gallon drums. The drums are emptied approximately once every two weeks. The
waste is stockpiled at the facility and then disposed of at the landfill.
I observed the maintenance records for the cyclone and baghouse. Both control devices had detailed logs
documenting inspections and maintenance actions.
6) Applicable Air Quality Regulations:
A. A.3 2D .0515 —PAR TICULA TES FROMMISCELLANEOUSINDUSTRIAL PROCESSES—
Particulate control emissions from emission sources shall not exceed allowable emission rates.
Appeared to be in compliance—The facility is no longer permitted, but compliance was determined
during the last permit review based on operating the source as described in the permit conditions. No
changes have been made to operations since that determination.
B. A.4 2D .0521 VISIBLE EMISSIONS CONTROL REQUIREMENT—Visible emissions from sources
shall be less than 20%opacity.
Appeared to be in compliance—The facility was not operating at the time of inspection due to
significant reduction in demand. I did not observe any indications of excessive emissions around the
control devices.
C. A.5 2D .0535 NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENT- The facility is required to notify DAQ if excess
emissions occur for more than a 4-hour period caused by a breakdown or other abnormal condition.
Appears to be in compliance — According to Mr. Tucker, the facility has had no exceedances,
breakdowns, or abnormal conditions requiring notification.
D. A.6 2D .0540 FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL REQUIREMENT—The Permittee shall not cause or
allow fugitive dust emissions to cause or contribute to complaints or excessive visible emissions beyond
the property boundary.
Appears to be in compliance—I observed no issues with fugitive dust at the facility on my approach in
or during the inspection. Mr.Tucker stated that the facility has never had a dust complaint. FRO has not
received any dust complaints for this facility.
5) 112R Status:
This facility does not store any of the listed chemicals above the threshold quantities, and is not required to
maintain a written risk management plan(RMV).
