Introduction
On April 8,2020, Chris Bryant,Environmental Specialist of DAQ-WSRO,attempted to conduct an unannounced
compliance inspection at Alamance Aggregates,LLC. The facility is classified as Small but is not operational. The
facility has not been constructed yet. This facility was issued its first permit(10612R00)on April 15,2019,which will
expire on March 31,2027. It was established in an email on March 25,2020 to the facility contact, Chad Threatt,that the
facility had not yet commenced construction. Mr. Threatt indicated that the company was hopeful to break ground by
April 30,2020. The facility has never been inspected.The facility is permitted as a non-metallic mineral processing plant.
During the April 8,2020 investigation,this inspector travelled to the facility and observed that there was no equipment at
the site.No emission sources were observed.IBEAM contacts are up-to-date.
Safety Equipment
When in operation; safety shoes,hard hat and eye protection are required. As with DAQ-WSRO policy,a reflective vest
is required for quarry visits. Also, inspectors should use wheel chocks at this facility.
Applicable Regulations
Applicable regulations for this facility include: Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code(NCAC), Subchapter 2D
.0202,2D .0510,2D .0524(40 CFR 60, Subpart 000),2D .0535,2D .0540,2D .1806 and 2Q .0309. The facility is not
subject to the RMP requirements of the 112(r)program since it does not use or store any of the regulated chemicals in
quantities above the threshold in the rule. The facility is only subject to the General Duty clause of the Section 112(r)
program.
Discussion
The emission sources at the facility include those associated with the conveying(ES-Convey), screening(ES-Screen), and
crushing(ES-Crushing)operations.All three of the categorical sources are subject to the provisions of the New Source
Performance Standards as written in 40 CFR 60, Subpart 000. Currently,the facility is not in operation.According to
the facility contact, Chad Threatt,the company is planning to begin construction of the site in the near future. Mr. Threatt
has been reminded to submit initial start-up notifications as required by 40 CFR 60, Subpart 000.
This facility appears in compliance with all applicable Air Quality standards and regulations, since it is not constructed
and not operating.
NSPS/NESHAP
This facility is subject to 2D .0524 New Source Performance Standards(NSPS),for the nonmetallic mineral processing
equipment, as promulgated in 40 CFR 60, Subpart 000, including Subpart A"General Provisions". Under this rule,the
facility is required to:
• Notify the Regional Supervisor, in writing, of the startup of an affected facility.
o The facility had a placeholder date in IBEAM that has been updated from 12/31/2019 to 04/30/2020 as a start-up
reminder.
• A 15%opacity limit is set for any crusher and 10%opacity for conveyor belts, screening operations and other affected
facilities constructed,modified or re-constructed after August 31, 1983,but before April 22,2008.
o The facility is not operational. No visible emission observations were performed.
• A 12% opacity limit is set for any crusher and 7%opacity for conveyor belts, screening operations and other affected
facilities constructed,modified or re-constructed on or after April 22,2008.
o The facility is not operational. No visible emission observations were performed.
• The facility is required to perform monthly inspections of the wet suppression systems for sources constructed on or
after April 22, 2008 and must record these inspections within a logbook.
o The facility is not operational. No monthly inspections of the wet suppression systems were performed.
Compliance is expected as the facility is not currently operational.

This facility does not appear to be subject to any other NSPS/NES14AP rules at this time.

'Expected actual emissions are calculated based on 8,760 hr/yr;therefore,actual emissions=potential emissions w/wet suppression.It is noted that these emissions
are from crushing and material handling operations. Fugitive emissions, i.e., unpaved road and storage pile wind emissions,were submitted with the application;
however,they are not needed and therefore are not taken into account.
2Wet suppression is required by NSPS Subpart 000 and 2D.0510. As such,potential emissions with wet suppression(not without wet suppression)are considered
for facility classification purposes. i
Facility Considerations/Issues
There do not appear to be any facility considerations or issues at this time.
Stack Testing
No stack testing has ever been conducted at this facility.
Conclusion
Based on review of records and visual observations,Alamance Aggregates,LLC appears to be operating in compliance
with all applicable Air Quality standards and regulations at the time of this compliance assurance visit, since the facility is
not in active operation.
