Subject: New Diesel Fuel Requirements for Stationary Internal Combustion Engines Subject to
New Source Performance Standards Subpart IIII
Facility ID: 0900009
County: Bladen
Dear Ms. Wrigley:
This letter is to inform you of new diesel fuel requirements that may impact your facility.
Beginning October 1, 2010, owners and operators of stationary diesel fuel -fired internal combustion
engines that are subject to New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) Subpart IIII and have a
displacement of less than 30 liters per cylinder must use diesel fuel that meets the following criteria:
• Sulfur content cannot exceed 15 ppm; and
• Minimum cetane index of 40 or maximum aromatic content of 35 percent by volume.
The North Carolina Division of Air Quality (DAQ) has identified your facility as having equipment
that may be subject to the above requirements. More information about the NSPS Subpart IIII and the
diesel fuel requirements can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations; 40 CFR 60.4207 and 40
CFR 80.510(b).
Owners and operators of pre-2011 model year stationary internal combustion engines that are subject
to NSPS Subpart IIII and combust diesel fuel that does not meet the above fuel requirements may
petition the DAQ to use the remaining "non -compliant" diesel fuel after the October 1, 2010
compliance date. The petition should include a detailed justification as to why the extension is needed.
Please specify the remaining quantity of "non -complaint" fuel and the fuel usage rate in your petition.
The petition must be submitted to and approved by the DAQ prior to October 1, 2010. If
approved, the petition will be valid for a period of no more than six (6) months. If additional time
is required to use the remaining "non -compliant" diesel fuel, then you must submit a new petition
to the DAQ. Petitions may be sent to the following:
1641 Nail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1641
2728 Capital Blvd.; Raleigh, NO 27604

Failure to comply with the above diesel fuel requirements or failure to receive an approved petition
from the DAQ prior to October 1, 2010 will be considered a violation of the regulation and may subject
your facility to enforcement action.
If you have any questions regarding the above requirements please contact Robert Hayden of the
Fayetteville Regional Office at [phone] or me at [phone].
