From Wadesboro,take HWY 74 west for 13.5 miles. The Quikrete facility will be on the left right before the Union County line. 2) Safety Considerations: Standard DAQ safety equipment. Be alert to trucks entering and exiting property. 3) Facility and Process Description: The Quikrete Company-Peachland is a dry concrete mixing facility that dries and packages play sand, concrete, mortar and mason mix, and grout. This facility is permitted under Air Permit No. 06907RO9, effective from 25 November 2014 until 31 October 2022. The facility receives cement and mortar in powder form and stores these materials in silos. The facility dries sand and gravel in a rotary dryer and stores these materials in silos. The facility has single silos for dry sand/gravel, all-purpose sand, and play sand. The fourth is a"split' silo that holds masonry cement, fly ash, and Portland cement. The materials are metered out of the silos and mixed prior to packaging in 50 pound bags or large bulk bags. Particulate emissions from the silos,the dryer and the mixing/packaging operation are controlled by a total of seven bagfilters. The packaging system for filling bags is located inside a building. There is a central dust collection system that captures dust that comes from bag filling and from several other points along the packaging process. The company has 30 employees(including drivers)and operates two shifts(5:OOAM—2:30PM and 2:30PM- 10:30PM), 5 days/week, 52 wks/yr. Silos are typically filled at the end of first shift, so a later PM inspection would be in order to see a filling. This facility is permitted under Air Permit No. 06907RO9, effective from November 25, 2014 until October 31, 2022. Mike Thomas conducted the last compliance inspection on 28 July 17 by Dan Thoma and Mike Thomas. 4) Permitted Emission Sources: MO y�+SJr(� a t... r01 e�11' One LPG-fired rotary dryer FES-1ES-1140 tons per hour maximum throughput Bagfilter 20 mmBtu/hr maximum heat input CD-8 (3,240 square feet of filter area) Operating 0%V.E.

We discussed the following: a) I verified the FACFINDER information. No changes were needed. b) I reviewed the facility's bagfilter logbooks. Entries are arranged by process and appeared to be complete and up to date. c) Mr. Snyder stated that production has been very steady and similar to the previous year. d) Throu h uts: IHs) � (Ml kip I t.l.ei,i „ i 2018 —25,315,000 --6,752,000 —107,234,000 —59,915,00 —4,300,000 2017 25,275,000 6,525,000 107'000,000 �59,800,000 4,300,000 2016 --25,300,000 —6,600,000 —107,000,000 —59,800,000 —4,300,000 2015 --25,300,000 —6,600,000 —107,000,000 --59,800,000 —4,300,000 2014 —25,300,000 —6,600,000 —107,000,000 —59,800,000 —4,300,000 2013 28,406,000 8,954,000 112,694,000 65,974,000 4,324,000 2012 25,298,000 6,602,000 107,164,000 59,752,000 4,294,000 2011 24,000,000 6,000,000 99,866,000 58,556,000 3,834,000 6) Inspection Summary: Mr. Snyder led me on a tour of the facility which was operating. I observed the facility's operations from start to finished product, observing each emission source along the way. I did not observe any indications of excess emissions. The duct work all appeared to be in good working order with no leaks or compromises. The travel ways were clean and gave no indication as to causing any fugitive emissions as they have in the past. 7) Permit Stipulations: A.2 15A NCAC 2D .0202 &2Q .0304-PERMIT RENEWAL AND EMISSION INVENTORY REQUIREMENT-The facility shall submit a permit renewal request and a completed air emissions inventory at least 90 days prior to permit expiration.
