T. Wooten Corporation-Haw River Asphalt. At the time of the inspection,the plant was not in operation,and according the previous inspections,the facility has not been in operation for a few years. Inspectors should be aware that the facility is gated off and that they may not be able to completely inspect the property because of this. The previous compliance inspection was conducted by the current inspector on June 7,2018. At the time of the inspection the facility appeared to be within compliance of all Air Quality rules and standards. Safety Requirements The Personal Protective Equipment(PPE)that should be worn are: safety shoes,safety glasses, hard hat,and reflective vest. Applicable Regulations Applicable regulations listed in the air permit include Title 15A NCAC, Subchapter 2D .0202, 2D .0503, 2D .0506, 2D .0510, 2D .0516,2D .0521,2D.0524(40 CFR 60, Subpart I),2D .0535,2D .0540,2D.0605,2D.0611,213 .1100,213 .1111 (40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ), 2D .1806,2Q .0309,2Q .0315,2Q .0317 (PSD,Recycled Fuel Oils, Recycled Asphalt Shingles), and 2Q .0711. This facility is not required to implement a Section 112(r)risk management plan(RMP)in accordance with federal regulation 40 CFR 68, because they do not purchase, produce, use or store any of the regulated chemicals in quantities above their corresponding threshold limits in the rule. However,the facility is subject to the General Duty clause in this rule. Discussion The facility is not currently operating, and some equipment remains on site. Much of the equipment located at the facility is not in working condition and appears to not have operated for years.The only remaining equipment are the empty exempt storage tanks(I- ES4 through I-ES8).The facility also has a few piles of leftover recycled asphalt pavement(RAP)and shingles(RAS). Mr. James Washburn, facility Environmental Compliance Manager,was contacted again about the operation status of the facility. Mr. Washburn stated that S.T. Wooten had no immediate plans in the future to resume production at the site and that they would like to retain the 2 permit. The inspector made Mr. Washburn aware that if the facility were to resume production that they should contact DAQ as soon as possible. Facility Wide Emissions The following are the actual and potential emissions for this facility were obtained from the most recent air permit review R05 (prepared by Davis Murphy, WSRO Permits Coordinator), Pollutant Actual Emissions Potential Emissions(tons per year) i (�tons per year) w/o controls&limlts= w/controls.&-limits I PM ..

Stack Testing The facility attempted emission testing on November 16,2002,but the test had to be aborted because cyclonic flow was present in the bagfilter stack. In the interim,a straightening vane plate was added to the stack.Trigon subsequently conducted Method 5,9,&202 testing on April 22,2003.Compliance was demonstrated,but the test results were very close to the permitted emission rates. Because of this,a letter was sent to the facility on September 22,2003 requiring the facility to retest by September 30,2004.The retest was performed on August 5,2004. A memo from the Stationary Source Compliance Branch dated June 6,2006, indicates that the retest demonstrated compliance, with a particulate emission rate of only 2.43 lbs/hr against an allowable 2D .0506 emission rate of 60 lbs/hr. The facility was also to conduct a test using EPA Methods 5,9, and 202 by September 30,2015. It is required under the provisions of NC General Statute 143-215.108,and in accordance with 2D .0605. The facility is aware of the requirement, but a date was never set, and there are no records indicating that the test took place. It should be noted that during the year the test would have been conducted, S.T. Wooten Corporation - Haw River Asphalt was in the process of being sold. Compliance History Within the last 5 year the facility has not experienced any compliance issues. Conclusion Based on visual observations during the inspection, S.T. Wooten Corporation-Haw River Asphalt,appears to be in compliance with all applicable air quality standards and regulations at the time of this inspection. I I i i i i 3 I i I 1 i i
