Re: Veolia ES Technical Solutions, LLC Part 71 Renewal Application 

Response to Notiflcation of Incompleteness, May 16, 2013 

Dear Ms. Damico: 

Veolia ES Technical Solutions, L.L.C. located in Sauget, Illinois (Veolia) received correspondence from 

USEPA Region 5(EPA) regarding its application for renewal of the facility's Part 71 Permit to Operate No. 

V-IL-12716300103-08-01. The notification of incompleteness listed six items for which EPA determined 

that additional information is required in order to be deemed complete. Veolia response to these items is 

presented in the following discussion. 

Since the original Part 71 permit was issued, September 12, 2008, Veolia has not implemented any 

operational changes and has not constructed any new equipment since the final application information 

for Permit No. V-IL-12716399193-08-01 was submitted and reviewed by EPA. Two new regulations, the 

Boiler MACT and RICE MACT, were published since the existing permit was issued and the applicable 

requirements for these regulations have been addressed in the renewal application. Based on this and in 

the interest of avoiding duplication of materials already previously submitted, Veolia relied on crossreferencing the previous application and existing Part 71 permit to obtain information required on 

application forms. Veolia prepared the Part 71 permit renewal application in this manner based on 

guidance contained in USEPA's "Federal Operating Permit Program (40 CFR Part 71) INSTRUCTION 

MANUAL FOR PART 71 FORMS". 

Excerpt from Instruction Manual; 

Cross-Referencing of Information Already Provided Allowed 

If you have previously submitted information to EPA or to an approved State 

agency that is required to be submitted in these application forms, you may either 

repeat the information in the space provided or cross-reference the relevant 

materials or documents. Cross-referencing is allowed for materials that are 

currently appllcable and available to the public and the permitting authority. If the 

materials do not meet this standard they must be submitted as an attachment to 

the form. All cross-referenced materials will be placed in the publlc docket on the 

permit action, unless they are published and/or readily available. 

The detailed response to each item in EPA's notification is provided in the discussion below. 

ITEM 1: CITATION AND DESCRIPTION OF ALL APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS. 

As stated above and in the permit renewal application narrative, there have been no physical changes to 

existing emission units, no new construction of emission units and no change to the operation of existing 

emission units since the submittal and review by EPA of the permit application for the existing Permit No. 

V-IL-12716399193-08-01. There are two new regulations that were published that affect the Veolia 

facility as follows: 

#7 Mobile Avenue, Sauget, IL 62201 

(618) 271-2804

ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES 

40 CFR 63 Subpart DDDDD National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process 

Heaters. 

40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for 

Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines. 

The new applicable requirements that will apply or have become effective during the term of the permit 

are described in Section III.A and III.D of the renewal application. Also included are the effective dates of 

these regulations. Veolia will be in compliance with all applicable requirements as of the effective date of 

each rule. 

AII other applicable requirements are listed in the existing Part 71 permit referenced above and in the 

application as indicated below. Veolia, therefore, refers EPA to Section IV of the May 2007 application 

narrative in which applicable requirements are described in detail and Section VI in which compliance 

demonstration methods are described in detail. In addition, Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 and 

2.8 of the existing Part 71 permit for the translation of the applicable requirements contained in the May 

2007 application into permit conditions. 

ITEM 2: INITIAL COMPLIANCE PLAN AND CERTIFICATION. 

Veolia refers EPA to the FORM I-COMP that was provided in Section I of the application submitted May 

2007 including a Compliance Status Table entitled "Addendum to Section I: Form I-Comp". Form 1- - 

COMP references Section IV of the application narrative in which applicable requirements are described 

in detail and Section VI in which compliance demonstration methods are described in detail. The 

compliance status for each unique combination of applicable requirements is indicated in the Compliance 

Status Table referenced above. There are no applicable requirements for which the source in not in 

compliance, therefore, no compliance plan/schedule is required. 

ITEM 3: DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION OF EMISSIONS ESTIMATION METHODS. 

Veolia refers EPA to Section V of the May 2007 application for discussion and justification of emission 

factors, maximum hourly design rates and maximum hourly emission rates with the exception of the drum 

crusher. Potential to emit rates provided in the EMISS forms and the PTE forms are based on a 

combination of construction permit limits, 40 CFR 63 Subpart EEE limits and maximum design rate 

calculations as provided in Section V.0 of the May 2007 application. AII of these limits also appear in the 

existing Part 71 permit. 

The drum crusher emission factor and emission estimates were re-evaluated as part of the renewal 

application. The revised emission factor and its basis are provided in Section III.0 and Appendix A of the 

renewal permit application. 

In addition, during preparation of this response, several typographical errors were found on the emission 

calculation forms. Revised forms are included with this document. 

ITEM 4: LISTING OF ALL ACTIVE AIR PERMITS AND CONSENT ORDERS ISSUED BY STATE OR 

FEDERAL AGENCY. 

Veolia refers EPA to Section I.A. of the May 2007 application for the permit history of the facility. The 

Part 71 permit is the only one listed in Section K of the FORM GIS because the existing Part 71 permit 

contains all federally enforceable applicable requirements from the construction permits issued by the 

Illinois Department of the Environment (IEPA). There have been no construction permits issued since the 

Part 71 permit was issued and no Part 71 permit modifications have occurred.

ITEM 5: PROCESS FLOW DIAGRAMS AND FACILITY PLOT PLAN. 

Veolia refers EPA to Section III behind the Figure tab in the May 2007 application for labeled site layouts 

and process flow diagrams. There have been no changes to the diagrams. 

ITEM 6: LISTING AND DESCRIPTION OF INAPPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS. 

Veolia refers EPA to Appendix B of the May 2007 application for this listing.

EMISSION CALCULATIONS (EMISS) 

Calculate potential to emit (PTE) for applicability purposes and actual emissions for fee purposes for 

each emissions unit, control device, or alternative operating scenario identified in section I of form GIS. 

If form FEE does not need to be submitted with the application, do not calculate actual emissions. 

A. Emissions Unit ID Unit #2 

B. Identification and Quantification of Emissions 

First, list each air pollutant that is either regulated at the unit or present in major amounts, then list any other 

regulated pollutant (for fee calculation) not already listed. HAP may be simply listed as "HAP." Next, 

calculate PTE for applicability purposes and actual emissions for fee purposes for each pollutant. Do not 

calculate PTE for air pollutants listed solely for fee purposes. Include all fugitives for fee purposes. You may 

round to the nearest tenth of a ton for yearly values or tenth of a pound for hourly values.
