Fee Class: Title V
PSD Status: Minor
In accordance with your completed Air Quality Permit Application for renewal of a Title V
permit received September 23, 2015, we are forwarding herewith Air Quality Permit No. 06467T19 to
Valley Proteins Inc., 656 Little Duncan Road, Wadesboro,North Carolina authorizing the construction
and operation, of the emission source(s) and associated air pollution control device(s) specified herein.
Additionally, any emissions activities determined from your Air Quality Permit Application as being
insignificant per 15A North Carolina Administrative Code 02Q .0503(8) have been listed for
informational purposes as an "ATTACHMENT." Please note the requirements for the annual
compliance certification are contained in General Condition P in Section 3. The current owner is
responsible for submitting a compliance certification for the entire year regardless of who owned the
facility during the year.
As the designated responsible official it is your responsibility to review, understand, and
abide by all of the terms and conditions of the attached permit. It is also your responsibility to ensure
that any person who operates any emission source and associated air pollution control device subject
to any term or condition of the attached permit reviews, understands, and abides by the condition(s)
of the attached permit that are applicable to that particular emission source.
If any parts,requirements,or limitations contained in this Air Quality Permit are unacceptable to
you,you have the right to request a formal adjudicatory hearing within 30 days following receipt of this
permit, identifying the specific issues to be contested. This hearing request must be in the form of a
written petition, conforming to NCGS (North Carolina General Statutes) 150B-23, and filed with both
the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-6714
and the Division of Air Quality,Permitting Section, 1641 Mail Service Center,Raleigh,North Carolina

the Office of Administrative Hearings. Please note that this permit will be stayed in its entirety upon
receipt of the request for a hearing unless a request for a hearing is made pursuant to NCGS 150B-23,
this Air Quality Permit shall be final and binding 30 days after issuance.
You may request modification of your Air Quality Permit through informal means pursuant to
NCGS 150B-22. This request must be submitted in writing to the Director and must identify the specific
provisions or issues for which the modification is sought. Please note that this Air Quality Permit will
become final and binding regardless of a request for informal modification unless a request for a hearing
is also made under NCGS 150B-23.
The construction of new air pollution emission source(s) and associated air pollution control
device(s),or modifications to the emission source(s)and air pollution control device(s)described in this
permit must be covered under an Air Quality Permit issued by the Division of Air Quality prior to
construction unless the Permittee has fulfilled the requirements of GS 143-215-108A(b) and received
written approval from the Director of the Division of Air Quality to commence construction. Failure to
receive an Air Quality Permit or written approval prior to commencing construction is a violation of GS
143-215.108A and may subject the Permittee to civil or criminal penalties as described in GS 143-
215.114A and 143-215.114B.
Anson County has not triggered increment tracking under PSD for any pollutants,so no tracking
is required.
This Air Quality Permit shall be effective from January 14, 2020 until December 31, 2024 is
nontransferable to future owners and operators, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as
specified therein.

2. If the source is not subject to NSPS(15A NCAC 02D.0524),NESHAPS(15A NCAC 02D.1110 or.1111),or these
rules do NOT define"excess emissions,"the Permittee shall report excess emissions in accordance with 15A NCAC
02D.0535 as follows:

rule unless the owner or operator of the sources demonstrates to the Director,that the excess emissions are a result of a
malfunction. The Director shall consider,along with any other pertinent information,the criteria contained in 15A
NCAC 02D.0535(c)(1)through(7).
2. 15A NCAC 02D.0535(g). Excess emissions during start-up and shut-down shall be considered a violation of the
appropriate rule if the owner or operator cannot demonstrate that excess emissions are unavoidable.

The Permittee shall be subject to the following provisions with respect to emergencies:
1. An emergency means any situation arising from sudden and reasonably unforeseeable events beyond the control of the
facility,including acts of God,which situation requires immediate corrective action to restore normal operation,and
that causes the facility to exceed a technology-based emission limitation under the permit,due to unavoidable increases
in emissions attributable to the emergency. An emergency shall not include noncompliance to the extent caused by
improperly designed equipment,lack of preventive maintenance,careless or improper operation,or operator error.
2. An emergency constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology-based
emission limitations if the conditions specified in 3.below are met.

Permit 06467T19
Page 23
3. The affirmative defense of emergency shall be demonstrated through properly signed contemporaneous operating logs

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.

submit the final test report.The Director shall approve an extension request if he fords 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.
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.
