FACILITY DESCRIPTION

The existing facility is an integrated facility that includes a Portland cement manufacturing plant, a power 

plant and a coal yard. The power boiler is a coal fired unit that is allowed to generate a net delivered 150 

MW. The cement kiln I, in-line kiln/raw mill and clinker cooler I share a common baghouse fabric filter 

system (for particulate matter emissions control) and stack with the power plant. Dry limestone injection 

is used to control SO2 emissions from the power boiler, which is then collected in the common baghouse 

fabric filter system. Waste heat from the kiln is used to provide heat to the raw mill and the kiln 

preheater, which is used to drive off moisture from the materials used for making clinker. All of the 

materials handling activities are controlled by fabric filter baghouse control systems, except for the 

Clinker Receiving/Handling System and the coal yard activities. For the Clinker Receiving/Handling 

System, the fugitive particulate matter emissions generated from the transfer of clinker from the receiving 

hopper to the belt conveyor are controlled using a Johnson-Marsh Dust Suppressant system, which uses a 

non-ionic wetting agent to enhance the wettability of the clinker. Water sprays or chemical wetting 

agents and stabilizers are used at the coal receiving area, the coal storage area, and the coal transfer 

system to control fugitive particulate matter emissions and minimize visible emission. All fly ash 

handling systems (including transfer and silo storage) are totally enclosed and vented (including 

pneumatic system exhaust) through fabric filters. 

This project is for a new cement manufacturing line (line 2) at the existing facility. New emissions units 

for the project will include a raw mill system, a dry process preheater/precalciner kiln system, clinker 

handling system, finish grinding operations, two cement loadout silos, and coal handling and grinding 

operations. Line 2 will have a capacity of 206.3 tons per hour of material fed (dry basis) to the preheater, 

125 tons per hour of clinker production, and 138 tons per hour of Portland cement production. The 

annual rates for the proposed system are not based on the maximum allowable rates for feed material and 

clinker production. This project is subject to Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Review and a 

Best Available Control Technology (BACT) determination for NOx, PM, PM10, SO2, CO, and VOC. The 

plant will be installing Selective Non-catalytic Reduction (SNCR) technology to control NOx emissions 

from the new line. NOx emissions limit from the kiln will be 1.95 lbs of NOx per ton of clinker (243.8 

lb/hour). Emissions limits for PM, PM10, SO2, CO, and VOC are 0.23 pounds of PM per ton of clinker 

(28.8 lb/hr), 0.20 pounds of PM10 per ton of clinker (25.0 lb/hr), 0.23 pounds of SO2 per ton of clinker 

(28.8 lb/hr), 3.60 pounds of CO per ton of clinker (450 lb/hr), and 0.12 pounds of VOC per ton of clinker 

(15 lb/hr), respectively. Mercury emissions will be limited to 122 lbs per year from the new line, and 

visible emissions from the line will be limited to 10% opacity. Daily and annual rates are 1,686,300 tons 

per year (4,620 tons/day, 24-hour average) of material fed to the preheater (dry basis), 1,022,000 tons per 

year (2,800 tons/day, 24-hour average) of clinker production, and 1,301,138 tons per year (5,760 

tons/day) of cement production. Fuels allowed to be used in the pyroprocessing system are natural gas, 

distillate fuel oil, on specification used oil, coal, petroleum coke, propane, flyash, and tire derived fuels. 

The plant will also include a coal processing operation that will crush coal and petroleum coke and will 

have an annual processing capacity of 131,400 tons of coal and petroleum coke. The new raw material 

and handling storage shall not process more than 225 tons per hour of raw material (1,971,000 tons per 

year) in any consecutive 12-month period.

16. Excess Emissions: The following excess emissions provisions can not be used to vary any NSPS or 

NESHAP requirements from any subpart of 40 CFR 60 or 40 CFR 63. 

Excess emissions resulting from startup, shutdown or malfunction of any emissions unit shall be 

permitted providing (1) best operational practices to minimize emissions are adhered to and (2) the 

duration of excess emissions shall be minimized but in no case exceed two hours in any 24 hour 

period unless specifically authorized by the Department for longer duration. Excess emissions which 

are caused entirely or in part by poor maintenance, poor operation, or any other equipment or process 

failure which may reasonably be prevented during start-up, shutdown, or malfunction shall be 

prohibited. [Rule 62-210.700, F.A.C.] 

17. Required Number of Test Runs: For mass emission limitations, a compliance test shall consist of 

three complete and separate determinations of the total air pollutant emission rate through the test 

section of the stack or duct and three complete and separate determinations of any applicable process 

variables corresponding to the three distinct time periods during which the stack emission rate was 

measured; provided, however, that three complete and separate determinations shall not be required if 

the process variables are not subject to variation during a compliance test, or if three determinations 

are not necessary in order to calculate the unit's emission rate. The three required test runs shall be 

completed within one consecutive five-day period. [Rule 62-297.310(1), F.A.C.] 

18. Frequency of Compliance Tests. The following provisions apply only to those emissions units that 

are subject to an emissions limiting standard for which compliance testing is required. 

(a) General Compliance Testing. 

 3. The owner or operator of an emissions unit that is subject to any emission limiting standard shall 

conduct a compliance test that demonstrates compliance with the applicable emission limiting 

standard prior to obtaining a renewed operation permit. Emissions units that are required to conduct 

an annual compliance test may submit the most recent annual compliance test to satisfy the 

requirements of this provision. In renewing an air operation permit pursuant to Rule 

62-210.300(2)(a)3.b., c., or d., F.A.C., the Department shall not require submission of emission 

compliance test results for any emissions unit that, during the year prior to renewal: 

a. Did not operate; or 

b. In the case of a fuel burning emissions unit, burned liquid and/or solid fuel for a total of no more 

than 400 hours. 

4. During each federal fiscal year (October 1 -- September 30), unless otherwise specified by rule, 

order, or permit, the owner or operator of each emissions unit shall have a formal compliance test 

conducted for: 

a. Visible emissions, if there is an applicable standard; 

[Rule 62-297.310(7), F.A.C.] 

19. Operating Rate During Testing: Unless otherwise stated in the applicable emission limiting standard 

rule, testing of emissions shall be conducted with the emissions unit operation at permitted capacity. 

Permitted capacity is defined as 90 to 100 percent of the maximum operation rate allowed by the permit. 

If it is impractical to test at permitted capacity, an emissions unit may be tested at less than the minimum

load until a new test is conducted. Once the unit is so limited, operation at higher capacities is allowed 

for no more than 15 consecutive days for the purpose of additional compliance testing to regain the 

authority to operate at the permitted capacity. [Rule 62-297.310(2), F.A.C.] 

20. Calculation of Emission Rate: The indicated emission rate or concentration shall be the arithmetic 

average of the emission rate or concentration determined by each of the three separate test runs unless 

otherwise specified in a particular test method or applicable rule. [Rule 62-297.310(3), F.A.C.] 

21. Applicable Test Procedures

a. Required Sampling Time. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable rule, the required sampling 

time for each test run shall be no less than one hour and no greater than four hours, and the sampling 

time at each sampling point shall be of equal intervals of at least two minutes. The minimum 

observation period for a visible emissions compliance test shall be sixty (60) minutes for emissions 

units which emit or have the potential to emit 100 tons per year or more of particulate matter, and 

thirty (30) minutes for emissions units which have potential emissions less than 100 tons per year of 

particulate matter and are not subject to a multiple-valued opacity standard. The observation period 

shall include the period during which the highest opacity can reasonably be expected to occur. 

 [Rule 62-297.310(4)(a)1. and 2., F.A.C.] 

b. Minimum Sample Volume. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable rule or test method, the 

minimum sample volume per run shall be 25 dry standard cubic feet. [Rule 62-297.310(4)(b), 

F.A.C.] 

c. Calibration of Sampling Equipment. Calibration of the sampling train equipment shall be 

conducted in accordance with the schedule shown in Table 297.310-1, F.A.C. [Rule 62-

297.310(4)(d), F.A.C.] 

22. Determination of Process Variables: [Rule 62-297.310(5), F.A.C.] 

a. Required Equipment. The owner or operator of an emissions unit for which compliance tests are 

required shall install, operate, and maintain equipment or instruments necessary to determine process 

variables, such as process weight input or heat input, when such data are needed in conjunction with 

emissions data to determine the compliance of the emissions unit with applicable emission limiting 

standards. 

b. Accuracy of Equipment. Equipment or instruments used to directly or indirectly determine 

process variables, including devices such as belt scales, weight hoppers, flow meters, and tank scales, 

shall be calibrated and adjusted to indicate the true value of the parameter being measured with 

sufficient accuracy to allow the applicable process variable to be determined within 10% of its true 

value. 

23. Required Stack Sampling Facilities: Sampling facilities include sampling ports, work platforms, 

access to work platforms, electrical power, and sampling equipment support. All stack sampling 

facilities must meet any Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Safety and Health 

Standards described in 29 CFR Part 1910, Subparts D and E. Sampling facilities shall also conform 

to the requirements of Rule 62-297.310(6), F.A.C. [Rule 62-297.310(6), F.A.C.] 

24. Test Notification: The owner or operator shall notify the Department’s district office at least 15 days 

prior to the date on which each formal compliance test is to begin. Notification shall include the date, 

time, and place of each such test, and the test contact person who will be responsible for coordinating
