Assign a unique identification number (ID No.) for each process_ that has 

associated emissions (e.g., TK-1 for tunnel kiln no. 1) and each emission point. 

Please identify all emission points, including those that do not emit HAP's. For 

emission points that are vented to an air pollution control device (APCD), assign an 

ID No. to the APCD (e.g., BH-1 for baghouse no. 1). For emission points that are 

uncontrolled, assign an ID No. to the uncontrolled stack (e.g., S-1) or building roof 

vent (e.g., RV-1). Use these same ID Nos. throughout the rest of the information 

request for any responses that pertain to any process or emission point.

VI. Identification of Brick and Structural Clay Product Manufacturing Emission Points 

A. Use the process flow diagrams developed for your facility and Table 4 to provide 

the following information for each HAP emission source at your facility. 

• Define HAP emission source type in terms of equipment, such as dryers, kilns, 

etc. As in the process flow diagram, you may group multiple pieces of similar 

equipment. 

• Use the same equipment ID numbers indicated on the process flow 

diagram(s). 

• If the emission source vents inside a building or to outside ambient air without 

first passing through a control device, place a check mark in the uncontrolled 

column. 

• If the emission source vents inside a building or to outside ambient air after 

passing through a fabric filter, dry injection fabric filter, or scrubber, place 

the APCD ID number(s) in the column corresponding to the APCD type. 

• If the emission source vents through a control device type not listed in Table 4, 

indicate the control device type in the other control column and place the 

APCD ID number in the appropriate cell. 

• In the etnission test data column, place a"yes" or "no" in the appropriate cell to 

indicate whether the specific source has been tested for my pollutants, including 

any HAP's, VOC, PM, or opacity.

B. Using Table 5, please provide information on stack parameters and emission 

estimates for each emission point at your facility that is known or expected to emit 

HAP's. Provide information for all APCD's, including those that exhaust inside the 

building. Include data for each inlet and outlet, if available, as indicated in the 

table. If you have more than one inlet to an APCD, provide data for each of the 

inlets. Provide data in the units listed for each row. 

Provide emission estimates for any HAP's or HAP surrogates, such as PM for metal 

HAP's or VOC for organic HAP's. Emission estimates may consist of 

measurements reported in emission test reports or may be calculated using mass 

balances, emission factors, engineering judgement, or other estimation methods. 

Provide the emission estimates as emission factors in units of lb of pollutant 

emitted per ton of product (lb/ton). Provide complete copies of any emission test 

reports or other reports that document measurements of emissions. Test 

reports and other emission measurement documents should include the following 

information: process identification; location of sampling point; stack diameter, 

temperature, and flow rate; test method, including analytical procedures; number of 

test runs; emission concentration, emission rate, percent oxygen, and percent 

moisture for each test run; process operating rate; type of APCD; and APCD 

operating parameters. However, test reports with incomplete documentation may 

still be useful and should also be submitted. 

You do not need to fill out Table 5 for emission points that are covered by an 

emission test report that is include.d in your submittal. If emission test reports are 

not available, provide calculations that support your emission estimate, 

including the basis for all assumptions in the estimate. Note that emission 

estimates are needed for all HAP's that the facility emits or has the potential to emit. 

(Please refer to the HAP list in Attachment 1.) If the information requested in the 

table is contained in your facility's operating permit, you may reference the 

applicable sections of the permit rather than filling out the table.

Hazardous Components: Saecific Chemical Identitv: 

Crystalline Quartz Silica Quartz (Silicon Dioxide), Si02 

These "Hazardous Components" are not released under normal conditions of use, but may be 

released from the fired clay brick as airborne respirable free crystalline silica 

particles when dry-sawing, dry-grinding, or otherwise materially modifying the product. 

Common Names:Dust from sawing or grinding, Sand, Silica. 

OSHA PEL• 

Exposure •to airborne crystalline silica shall not exceed an 8-hour time-weighted average 

limit as stated in 29 CFR 1910.1000 Table Z-3 for Mineral Dusts, specifically: 

Silica, Crystalline Quartz (respirable): 0.1 mg/M' 

ACGIH TLV: 

Crystalline Quartz 

TLV-TWA m 0.1 mg/M' (Respirable Dust) 

See Threshold Limit Value and Biological Exposure Indices for 1991-1992, American 

Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. 

Other Limits Recommended: 

NIOSH has recommended that the permissible exposure limit be changed to 0.05 mg/M' (as 

respirable free silica) averaged over a work shift of up to 10 hours per day, 40 hours per 

week. Consult the NIOSH Criteria Document for Crystalline Silica for more information.

SECTION VI - Health Hazard Data 

Route(s) of Entrv: 

Inhalation?: Yes Skin?: No Ingestion?: No 

Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): 

Dry-sawing or dry-grinding may result in the release of dust particles which may: 

Acute: May cause minor irritation of the eye, nose, or skin. 

Chronic: Excessive inhalation of dust particles for prolonged periods may result in 

lung disease (silicosis). Silicosis is a form of disabling pulmonary fibrosis which 

can be progressive and may lead to death. See "Carcinogenicity" section below. 

Carcinogenicitv: 

NTP?: Yes . 

In the Sixth Annual Report on Carcinogens by The National Toxicology Program (NTP), 

it was concluded that respirable crystalline silica may reasonably be anticipated to 

be a carcinogen. The conclusion is based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity 

in laboratory animals, and limited evidence in humans. 

IARC Monographs?: Yes . 

The'International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) Monographs on the Evaluation 

of the Carcinogenic Risk of Chemicals to Humans (Vol. 42, 1987) concludes that there 

is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of crystalline silica to experimental 

animals, and that there is limited evidence of the carcinogenicity of crystalline 

silica to humans. IARC Class 2A. 

Signs and Svmptoms of Exposure: 

Symptoms of excessive exposure are irritation of eyes, nose and/or throat, shortness of 

breath, sputum production. 

Medical Conditions Generallv Aggravated bv Exposure: 

Pre-existing pulmonary and/or respiratory lung diseases, including, but not limited to; 

Emphysema, Asthma, or Bronchitis. Pulmonary function may be reduced by inhalation of 

respirable crystalline silica. Lung scarring produced by excessive inhalation may lead to 

a progressive massive fibrosis of the lung which may aggravate other pulmonary conditions 

and diseases, increasing susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis. Progressive massive 

fibrosis may be accompanied by heart enlargement, heart failure, and pulmonary failure. 

PSmoking aggravates the effects of exposure. Sensitive eye conditions may also be 

aggravated by excessive exposure. 

Emercqencv and First Aid Procedures: 

Eyes: Flush eyes immediately and generously with water for 15 minutes. If 

irritation persists, seek medical attention. 

Inhalation: For gross inhalation, remove person immediately to fresh air. Give 

artificial respiration as needed, and seek medical attention as needed. 

Skin:Wash thoroughly. See physician if irritation persists.

SECTION.:VII Precautions for Safe Handiirig and Use 

Steps to Be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Collect dust from dry-sawing or grinding 

operations using dustless method (vacuum or water). Wear protective equipment specified 

below. , 

Waste Disposal Method: Dispose in accordance with Federal, State, and Local regulations. 

Precautions to Be Taken in Handling and Storing: Avoid breathing of dust particles from drysawing and grinding of units. Take normal precautions against spilling of containers with 

waste dust particles from dry-sawing or grinding operations. 

OtherPrecautions: Wear NIOSH approved respirator, tight fitting goggles, and gloves when 

sawing or grinding operations are active. Do not permit dust to collect on wall or floor 

surfaces, clothing, or equipment. 

See applicable OSHA Hazard Communication Rule 29 CFR Sections and State and Local worker 

or community "right to know" laws and regulations. We recommend that smoking be 

prohibited in all areas where respirators must be used. WARN YOUR EMPLOYEES AND (YOUR 

CUSTOMER-USERS IN CASE OF RESALE) BY POSTING AND OTHER MEANS OF THE HAZARD AND OSHA 

PRECAUTIONS TO BE USED. PROVIDE TRAINING FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES ABOUT THE OSHA PRECAUTIONS.

Appearance and Odor: Black to brownish black and available in various size ranges from 

granular to fine powders; odorless. I 

Bulk Density: 125 - 132 lbs/cu.ft. (=17 lbs/gal) Melting Point: >2800°F 

Water Solubility ($): slight $ volatile by volume: 0 

pH (10% Aqueous Slurry): 9- 10 

SECTION IV. FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA 

Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical or CO2on fires involving Manganese dioxide. 

Unusual fire or explosion hazards: Although not combustible, manganese,dioxide is a 

strong oxidizing agent. It may increase the burning rate of combustibles with a flareburning effect. It may cause reignition after a fire is extinguished. Oxygen from the 

thermal decomposition of Mn0 2facilitates combustion. 

special Fire - Fighting Procedurea: Since fire may produce toxic fumes, wear a sel.f - 

contained braathing apparatue (eCBA) with full faeopiece operated in the pre§3uredeinand or positive-pressure mode. Be aware of runoff from fire control methode. Do not 

release to sewers or waterways. 

I SECTION V. REACTIVITY DATA I 

Stnbility: This product is a stable at room temperature in cloeed containere under 

normal conditions of storage and handling conditions. Hazardous polymerization will not 

occur. 

chemical incompatibilities: Manganese dioxi ; is a powerful oxidizer, hence it should 

not be heated or rubbed with organic mattc: or other easily oxidizable substances, 

e.g., sulfur, sulfides, phosphides, hypoti:osphides, etc.. Flammable by chemical 

reaction. Incompatible with hydrogen peroxide; sodium peroxide. Keep away from heat and 

flammable materials. 

I SECTION VI. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION I 

Carcinogenicity: The NTP, IARC, AND OSHA do not list manganese dioxide as a carcinogen. 

Summary of risks: Manganese is an essential trace element for living organisms. 

Although found in all human tissue, acute or chronic manganese poisoning can occur from 

excessive intake via inhalation or ingestion. Manganese dioxide dust inhalation can 

irritate the respiratory tract and lead to lung damage, pleuritis, bronchitis, and 

increased incidence of respiratory infection. Large inhaled particles may be cleared 

from the respiratory tract and swallowed, but small particles are eventually absorbed 

into the blood. 

Medical conditions which may be aggravated by contact: Lungs; central nervous system 

diseases, psychiatric disorders, eyes. 

Target organs: Respiratory system, central nervous system.

HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION continued from page 2 

Acute Effects: Exposure to high concentrations of manganese dioxide causes an 

influenza-like illness (metal fume fever). The 24 to 48 hour illness is characterized 

by chills, fever, aching muscles, dryness in the mouth and throat, and headache. 

ManganeeA dust and tumos are minor irritants to tho eyes and completely innocuous to 

the intact skin. Manganese pleuritis, bronchitis, or pneumonia may also occur. 

Chronic Effects: Prolonged excessive inhalation can bring manganese into the body via 

both the lungs.and digestive tract (swallowed mucous) to cause systemic poisoning. 

Chronic poisoning is usualiy in 6 to 24 month. S}m:ptoms include apathy, anorexia, 

headache, weakness, and easy fatigue, then clumsiness, speech problems and other 

central nervous system effects. Progressive and permanent disability can result from 

chronic untreated manganese poisoning, but it is not fatal. 

Signs & symptoms of overexposure: 

Eye contacts Physical Irritation 

Skin contact: Possible irritation from repeated or prolonged contact to 

individuals sensitive to mineral dust. 

Inhalation: Throat and Upper respiratory irritation. 

yret aids 

Eye contact: Flush eyes, including under the eyelids, with large amounts of 

water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. 

Skin contact: Wash affected area with mild soap and water to remove any dust and 

manganese dioxide adhering to the skin. 

Inhalation: Remove exposed person to fresh air. Support breathing as needed. 

Ingestion: If ingested, have victim drink 2- 3 glasses of water, then 

induce vomiting, then seek medical attention. 

SECTION VII. SPILL, LEAK AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES 

Spill / Leak procedures: The product is not readily soluble, however prevent the spill 

from entering water and waste water systems. Cleanup personnel need to wear approved

IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT, wash with soap & water. Seek medical attention if red & irritated. 

IN CASE OF EYE CONTACT, flush eyes immediately with water for at least 

15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. 

IF INGESTED, induce vomiting immediately by giving two glasses of water 

and sticking finger down throat. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician immediately. 

Precautions for Safe Handling and Use 

Material Release or Spill Precautions: Should a spill occur, ventilate area. Clean-up personnel require respiratory 

protection. Recover uncontaminated material for use. Vacuum or sweep 

remaining material, keeping dust to a minimum. 

Waste Disposal Method: Dispose of unreclaimable material in a RCRA-approved waste facility. 

Handling and Storing Precautions: Protect containers from damage and keep closed when not in use. 

Other Precautions: Observe good personal hygiene. Wash after handling. 

Control Measures 

Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH approved particulate respirator if dust generation occurs or is 

anticipated. OSHA standard 1910.134 or ANSI Z88.2-1980 speciGcations are 

recommended. 

Ventilation: A system of local and / or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee 

exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust is generallv 

preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, 

preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the 

ACGIH document, "Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices", most recent edition, for details. 

Protective Gloves: Yes 

Eye Protection: Safety goggles are recommended. 

Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Use other protective equipment when necessary in order to avoid prolonged 

exposureto skin. 

Work and Hygienic Practices: Observe good personal hygiene. Wash after handling.

If you need clarification of any question or item, please contact Mr. Bill Neuffer of EPA at 

(919) 541-5435. 

This information request should be completed for each facility that manufactures brick and 

structural clay products, including facilities that are not major sources. Information is 

requested for all processes at your plant that emit hazardous air pollutants (HAP's), 

including those processes that are not associated with brick and structural clay 

products manufacturing. Sections II through VII request information specific to brick 

and structural clay products manufacturing, and Section VIII requests information on 

emissions of HAP's from other processes located at the facility. Processes that may emit 

HAP's include those processes that use or handle any materials that contain a HAP 

compound, all processes with elevated temperatures, and all other processes in which HAP 

compounds may be formed. The HAP list from Section 112(b) of the Clean Air Act is 

included as Attachment 1 to this information request. Attachment 2 provides background 

information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act and explains how the information 

requested in this questionnaire will be used by'EPA. Attachment 3 is a list of abbreviations 

and acronyms used in this information request. 

Several tables are provided throughout the information request for your convenience in 

answering the questions. An example response is given (shaded first column or row) in

for organic HAP's and PM for metal and other particulate HAP's); emission control 

device design and operation; monitoring and operation and maintenance (O&M) 

procedures for control devices; and generation and releases of other media such as 

wastewater and solid waste that are associated with the operation of air pollution 

controls for brick and structural clay products manufacturing processes. 

If the operating permit or application contains the same information requested 

in any part of this questionnaire, you may respond to the requested information 

by referencing the page or section of the permit/application to avoid 

duplication. If you reference your permit or application, you must supplement your 

response with all of the additional information requested in this questionnaire that is 

not included in the permit or permit application. If you prefer, you may submit the 

requested information from your permit/application on a 3- 1/z inch diskette. 

B. If any source or emission unit at this facility is subject to a New Source Performance 

Standard or other Federal emission standard, please identify the source and 

applicable standard. Examples of applicable NSPS include 40 CFR 60,

V. Description of Brick and Structural Clay Product Manufacturing Processes 

A. Please provide a simple process flow diagram for each brick and structural clay 

product manufacturing process line. An example process flow diagram is provided 

in Figure 1. A diagram of the plant layout with all processes and emission points 

clearly labeled is also acceptable. 

Assign a unique identification number (ID No.) for each process that has 

associated emissions (e.g., TK-1 for tunnel kiln no. 1) and each emission point. 

Please identify all emission points, including those that do not emit HAP's. For 

emission points that are vented to an air pollution control device (APCD), assign an 

ID No. to the APCD (e.g., BH-1 for baghouse no. 1). For emission points that are 

uncontrolled, assign an ID No. to the uncontrolled stack (e.g., S-1) or building roof 

vent (e.g., RV-1). Use these same ID Nos. throughout the rest of the information 

request for any responses that pertain to any process or emission point.

B. Using Tables 2A and 2B, please provide current production rates, production 

capacities, and related information for each type of equipment used in brick and 

structural clay product manufacturing. In Table 2A, provide the requested 

information for only those sources that are known or expected to emit HAP's. In 

Table 2B, provide the requested information for all thermal processing, such as 

drying and firing sources. For combustion sources that use different fuels, Table 2B 

should be completed for each type of fuel. For example, if a kiln typically is fired 

with gas, but periodically is fired with oil, one column in Table 2B should be 

completed for the kiln when fired with ga.s, and another column should be completed 

for the same kiln when fired with oil. Provide the data in the units listed for each 

row.

C. Using Table 3, please provide information on procedures used to monitor the 

process operating rate for each of the pieces of equipment and HAP emission 

sources listed in Tables 2A and 2B. Use the same HAP emission source types and 

equipment ID numbers you listed in Tables 2A to 2B. 

Indicate whether you monitor process rate or not. 

Provide a summary of process rate monitoring procedures that 

describes how process rate is measured for the particular piece of 

equipment. Include where the rate is monitored (i.e., rate of material fed, 

rate of material discharged, or material production rate), the units used to 

measure process rate (e.g, lb/hr or pieces/hr), and how the process data is 

recorded, i.e., manually, automatically (e.g., computer - printout or stored 

to disk, or not at all). If you monitor process rate at both the feed and 

discharge ends of the equipment, indicate so. 

Indicate the type of monitor, equipment, or instrument used to measure 

process operating rate. 

Indicate the monitoring frequency or how often process rate 

measurements are made. 

If instruments are used to measure process throughput, indicate in the 

monitor accuracy column the accuracy of the instrument. The monitor 

accuracy could be listed in terms of a percentage of the throughput 

(± 1 percent), mass per unit time (t21b/hr), number of pieces per unit time 

(± 10 pieces/hr), or other appropriate units. 

Indicate the frequency that the monitor is calibrated. 

Provide data in the units listed for each row.

VI. Identification of Brick and Structtiral Clay Product Manufacturing Emission Points 

A. Use the process flow diagrams developed for your facility and Table 4 to provide 

the following information for each HAP emission source at your facility. 

• Define HAP emission source type in terms of equipment, such as dryers, kilns, 

etc. As in the process flow diagram, you may group multiple pieces of similar 

equipment. 

• Use the same equipment ID numbers indicated on the process flow 

diagram(s). 

• If the emission source vents inside a building or to outside ambient air without 

first passing through a control device, place a check mark in the uncontrolled 

column. 

• If the emission source vents inside a building or to outside ambient air after 

passing through a fabric filter, dry injection fabric filter, or scrubber, place 

the APCD ID number(s) in the column corresponding to the APCD type. 

• If the emission source vents through a control device type not listed in Table 4, 

indicate the control device type in the other control column and place the 

APCD ID number in the appropriate cell. 

• In the emission test data column, place a"yes" or "no" in the appropriate cell to 

indicate whether the specific source has been tested for My pollutants, including 

any HAP's, VOC, PM, or opacity.

B. Using Table 5, please provide information on stack parameters and emission 

estimates for each emission point at your facility that is known or expected to emit 

HAP's. Provide information for all APCD's, including those that exhaust inside the 

building. Include data for each inlet and outlet, if available, as indicated in the 

tabfe. If you have more than one inlet to an APCD, provide data for each of the 

inlets. Provide data in the units listed for each row. 

Provide emission estimates for any HAP's or HAP surrogates, such as PM for metal 

HAP's or VOC for organic HAP's. Emission estimates may consist of 

measurements reported in emission test reports or may be calculated using mass 

balances, emission factors, engineering judgement, or other estimation methods. 

Provide the emission estimates as emission factors in units of lb of pollutant 

emitted per ton of product (lb/ton). Provide complete copies of any emission test 

reports or other reports that document measurements of emissions. Test 

reports and other emission measurement documents should include the following 

information: process identification; location of sampling point; stack diameter, 

temperature, and flow rate; test method, including analytical procedures; number of 

test runs; emission concentration, emission rate, percent oxygen, and percent 

moisture for each test run; process operating rate; type of APCD; and APCD 

operating parameters. However, test reports with incomplete documentation may 

still be useful and should also be submitted. 

You do not need to fill out Table 5 for emission points that are covered by an 

emission test report that is included in your submittal. If emission test reports are 

not available, provide calculations that support your emission estimate, 

including the basis for all assumptions in the estimate. Note that emission 

estimates are needed for all HAP's that the facility emits or has the potential to emit. 

(Please refer to the HAP list in Attachment 1.) If the information requested in the 

table is contained in your facility's operating permit, you may reference the 

applicable sections of the permit rather than filling out the table.

tetrafluoride. 

Hazardous Decomposition or Byproducts: None . 

Hazardous Polymerization:will not occur. Conditions to Avoid:None 

SECTION;VI - Health.Hazard Data 

Route(s) of Entrv: 

Inhalation?: Yes Skin?: No Ingestion ?: No 

Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): 

Dry-sawing or dry-grinding may result in the release of dust particles which may: 

Acute: May cause minor irritation of the eye, nose, or skin. 

Chronic: Excessive inhalation of dust particles for prolonged periods may result in 

lung disease (silicosis). Silicosis is a form of disabling pulmonary fibrosis which 

can be progressive and may lead to death. See "Carcinogenicity" section below. 

Carcinoqenicity: 

NTP?: Yes . 

In the Sixth Annual Report on Carcinogens by The National Toxicology Program (NTP), 

it was concluded that respirable crystalline silica may reasonably be anticipated to 

be a carcinogen. The conclusion is based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity 

in laboratory animals, and limited evidence in humans. 

IARC Monographs?: Yes . 

The'International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) Monographs on the Evaluation 

of the Carcinogenic Risk of Chemicals to Humans (Vol. 42, 1987) concludes that there 

is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of crystalline silica to experimental 

animals, and that there is limited evidence of the carcinogenicity of crystalline 

silica to humans. IARC Class 2A. 

Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: 

Symptoms of excessive exposure are irritation of eyes, nose and/or throat, shortness of 

breath, sputum production. 

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: 

Pre-existing pulmonary and/or respiratory lung diseases, including, but not limited to; 

Emphysema, Asthma, or Bronchitis. Pulmonary function may be reduced by inhalation of 

respirable crystalline silica. Lung scarring produced by excessive inhalation may lead to 

a progressive massive fibrosis of the lung which may aggravate other pulmonary conditions 

and diseases, increasing susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis. Progressive massive 

fibrosis may be accompanied by heart enlargement, heart failure, and pulmonary failure. 

r:Smoking aggravates the effects of exposure. Sensitive eye conditions may also be 

aggravated by excessive exposure. 

Emeraencv and First Aid Procedures: 

Eyes : Flush eyes immediately and generously with water for 15 minutes. If 

irritation persists, seek medical attention. 

Inhalation:For gross inhalation, remove person immediately to fresh air. Give 

artificial respiration as needed, and seek medical attention as needed. 

Skin:Wash thoroughly. See physician if irritation persists.

Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical or COZon fires involving Manganese dioxide. 

Unusual fire or explosion hazards: Although not combustible, manganese,dioxide is a 

strong oxidizing agent. It may increase the burning rate of combustibles with a flareburning effect. It may cause reignition after a fire is extinguished. Oxygen from the 

thermal decomposition of MnOZfacilitates combustion. 

Special Fire-Fighting Procedurea: Since fire may produce toxic fumes, wear a selfcontained brsathing apparatue (BCSA) with full facapioce operatod in the pree3uYedeinand or positive-pressure mode. Be aware of runoff from fire control methode. Do not 

release to sewers or waterways. 

I SECTION V. REACTIVITY DATA I 

Stability: This product ie a atable at room temperature in closed containers under 

normal conditions of storage and handling conditions. Hazardous polymerization will not 

occur. 

Chemical incompatibilities: Manganese dioxide is a powerful oxidizer, hence it should 

not be heated or rubbed with organic matter or other easily oxidizable substances, 

e.g., sulfur, sulfides, phosphides, hypophosphides, etc.. Flammable by chemical 

reaction. Incompatible with hydrogen peroxide; sodium peroxide. Keep away from heat and 

flammable materials. 

SECTION VI. HEALTH HAZARD INF'ORMATION 

Carcinogenicity: The NTP, IARC, AND OSHA do not list manganese dioxide as a carcinogen. 

Summary of risks: Manganese is an essential trace element for living organisms. 

Although found in all human tissue, acute or chronic manganese poisoning can occur from 

excessive intake via inhalation or ingestion. Manganese dioxide dust inhalation can 

irritate the respiratory tract and lead to lung damage, pleuritis, bronchitis, and 

increased incidence of respiratory infection. Large inhaled particles may be cleared 

from the respiratory tract and swallowed, but small particles are eventually absorbed 

into the blood. 

Medical conditions which may be aggravated by contact: Lungs; central nervous system 

diseases, psychiatric disorders, eyes. 

Target organs: Respiratory system, central nervous system.

HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION continued from page 2 

Acute Effects: Exposure to high concentrations of manganese dioxide causes an 

influenza-like illness (metal fume fever). The 24 to 48 hour illness is characterized 

by chills, fever, aching muscles, dryness in the mouth and throat, and headache. 

Manganeaa duet and tumos are minor irritante to tho eyes and completely innocuous to 

the intact skin. Manganese pleuritis, bronchitis, or pneumonia may also occur. 

Chronic Effects: Prolonged excessive inhalation can bring manganese into the body via 

both the lungs.and digestive tract (swallowed mucous). to cause systemic poisoning. 

Chronic poisoning is usualiy in 6 to 24 month. Syc:ptoms include apathy, anorexia, 

headache, weakness, and easy fatigue, then clumsiness, speech problems and other 

central nervous system effects. Progressive and permanent disability can result from 

chronic untreated manganese poisoning, but it is not fatal. 

Signs & symptoms of overexposure: 

Eye contacts Physical Irritation 

Skin contact: Possible irritation from repeated or prolonged contact to 

individuals sensitive to mineral dust. 

Inhalation: Throat and Upper respiratory irritation. 

yrst aidi 

Eye contact: Flush eyes, including under the eyelids, with large amounts of 

water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. 

Skin contact: Wash affected area with mild soap and water to remove any dust and 

manganese dioxide adhering to the skin. 

Inhalation: Remove exposed person to fresh air. Support breathing as needed. 

Ingestion: If ingested, have victim drink 2- 3 glasses of water, then 

induce vomiting, then seek medical attention. 

SECTION VII. SPILL, LEAK AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES 

Spill / Leak procedures: The product is not readily soluble, however prevent the spill 

from entering water and waste water systems. Cleanup personnel need to wear approved 

respiratory protection, gloves, long sleeved clothing and goggles to prevent irritation 

from contact and inhalation. Reuse all spilled material whenever possible. 

waste management / Disposal: The product is not a listed hazardous waste and does not 

exhibit any characteristics of a hazardous waste, including the EPA's TCLP for toxic 

characteristics. Follow all local, state and federal regulations for proper disposal. 

SECTION VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION 

Personal protective equipment: The use of safety glasses, gloves, and long sleeve 

clothing is recommended. The use of OSHA approved particulate dust respirator in 

accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134 must be worn for dust exposure above allowable expoeure 

)% imits.

Phone: Health & Safety Info 215/337-1100 Date: 2/14/92 

Revision: 12/92 

SECTION IV. FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA 

Extinguishing Media: Chrome ore is not combustible. Use extinguishing media appropriate 

to combustibles in the surrounding area. 

Unusual fire or explosion hazards: None 

Hazardous decomposition Products: None 

SECTION V. REACTIVITY DATA 

stability: Chrome ore is an inert and stable mineral. Hazardous polymerization will not 

occur. 

Chemical incompatibilities: Chrome ore can react at high temperature with molten 

alkalies and alkali vapors forming water soluble chromium salts. 

storage: Chrome ore is stable under all normal conditions of storage. 

SECTION VI. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION 

Summary of risks: Exposure to chrome ore presents a low order of risk. The primary 

health hazard is the excessive inhalation of dust generated during handling operations. 

health hazards such as : hexavalent chromium compounds produce a corrosive action on any 

skin arid mucous membranes they contact; chromite salts are human and experimental 

carcinogens of the lungs, nasal cavity and paranasal sinus, and are also experimental 

carcinogens of the stomach and larynx; the hexavalent (VI) chromium compounds are more 

toxic than the trivalent (III) compounds. Eczematous dermatitis has been reported for 

some trivalent chromium compounds. A competent industrial hygienist should be consulted 

for evaluation of potential health hazards associated with specific chemical processes 

involving the use of chrome ore. 

Medical conditions which may be aggravated by contact: The excessive inhalation of 

mineral dust may aggravate pre-existing chronic lung conditions such as, but not 

limited to, bronchitis, emphysema, and asthma. 

Target organs: Upper Respiratory System 

Primary entry route: Inhalation 

Acute Effects: The excessive inhalation of mineral dust can cause a transitory upper 

respiratory irritation. 

Chronic Effects: The chromium in chrome ore is in the trivalent (III) form. Trivalent 

Chrome oxide (CrZ 03 ) is reported to have a low order of toxicity. The IARC - Cancer 

Review: Animal - Inadequate Evidence. Chrome ore is listed as a human carcinogen in ore 

processing.

I HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION continued from page 2 1 

Signs & symptoms of overexposure: 

Eye contact: Physical Irritation 

Skin contact: Possible irritation from repeated or prolonged contact to 

individuals sensitive to mineral dust. 

Inhalation: Upper respiratory irritation. 

First aid: 

Eye contact: Flush eyes, including under the eyelids, with large amounts of 

water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. 

Skin contact: Wash with mild soap and water. 

Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. 

Ingestion: No data available. 

SECTION VII. SPILL, LEAK AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES 

( Spill / Leak procedures: 

Chrome ore is unreactive and insoluble in water and acids. Reuse all spilled 

material whenever possible. Thoroughly cleanup spilled material and place into a 

suitable container, being careful to avoid creating dusty conditions. If conditions 

warrant clean-up personnel should wear approved respiratory protection, gloves, and 

goggles to prevent irritation from contact and/or inhalation. 

Waste management / Disposal: 

Chrome ore is not biodegradable, and does not exhibit any characteristics of a 

hazardous waste. It is insoluble by EPA's SW-846 TCLP methodology. It is suitable 

for landfill disposal. However, used debris containing chromium must be evaluated 

for the Characteristic of Toxicity to determine the method of disposal. Follow all 

local, state and federal regulations for proper disposal. 

SECTION VIII. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION 

Personal protective equipment: The use of safety glasses, gloves, and long sleeve 

clothing is recommended. 

Workplace Considerations: 

Ventilation: 

Provide adequate general ventilation and local ventilation in both sufficient volume 

and air flow patterns to keep air contaminant concentration levels below allowable 

limits.

requested for all processes at your plant that emit hazardous air pollutants (HAP's), 

including those processes that are not associated with brick and structural clay 

products manufacturing. Sections II through VII request information specific to brick 

and structural clay products manufacturing, and Section VIII requests information on 

emissions of HAP's from other processes located at the facility. Processes that may emit 

HAP's include those processes that use or handle any materials that-contain a HAP 

compound, all processes with elevated temperatures, and all other processes in which HAP 

compounds may be formed. The HAP list from Section 112(b) of the Clean Air Act is 

included as Attachment 1 to this information request. Attachment 2 provides background 

information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act and explains how the information 

requested in this questionnaire will be used by EPA. Attachment 3 is a list of abbreviations 

and acronyms used in this information request. 

Several tables are provided throughout the information request for your convenience in 

answering the questions. An example response is given (shaded first column or row) in 

each table. If additional space is needed to respond, please make copies of applicable 

pages. If necessary, please make copies of this information request for additional facilities. 

No additional emission testing or monitoring is required to respond to this request.

Assign a unique identification number (ID No.) for each process that has 

associated emissions (e.g., TK-1 for tunnel kiln no. 1) and each emission point. 

Please identify all emission points, including those that do not emit HAP's. For 

emission points that are vented to an air pollution control device (APCD), assign an 

ID No. to the APCD (e.g., BH-1 for baghouse no. 1). For emission points that are 

uncontrolled, assign an ID No. to the uncontrolled stack (e.g., S-1) or building roof 

vent (e.g., RV-1). Use these same ID Nos. throughout the rest of the information 

request for any responses that pertain to any process or emission point.

VI. Identification of Brick and Structural Clay Product Manufacturing Emission Points 

A. Use the process flow diagrams developed for your facility and Table 4 to provide 

the following information for each HAP emission source at your facility. 

• Define HAP emission source type in terms of equipment, such as dryers, kilns, 

etc. As in the process flow diagram, you may group multiple pieces of similar 

equipment. 

• Use the same equipment ID numbers indicated on the process flow 

diagram(s). 

• If the emission source vents inside a building or to outside ambient air without 

first passing through a control device, place a check mark in the uncontrolled 

column. 

• If the emission source vents inside a building or to outside ambient air after 

passing through a fabric filter, dry injection fabric filter, or scrubber, place 

the APCD ID number(s) in the column corresponding to the APCD type. 

• If the emission source vents through a control device type not listed in Table 4, 

indicate the control device type in the other control column and place the 

APCD ID number in the appropriate cell. 

• In the emission test data column, place a"yes" or "no" in the appropriate cell to 

indicate whether the specific source has been tested for Agy pollutants, including 

any HAP's, VOC, PM, or opacity.

B. Using Table 5, please provide information on stack parameters and emission 

estimates for each emission point at your facility that is known or expected to emit 

HAP's. Provide information for all APCD's, including those that exhaust inside the 

building. Include data for each inlet and outlet, if available, as indicated in the 

table. If you have more than one inlet to an APCD, provide data for each of the 

inlets. Provide data in the units listed for each row. 

Provide emission estimates for any HAP's or HAP surrogates, such as PM for metal 

HAP's or VOC for organic HAP's. Emission estimates may consist of 

measurements reported in enussion test reports or may be calculated using mass 

balances, emission factors, engineering judgement, or other estimation methods. 

Provide the emission estimates as emission factors in units of lb of pollutant 

emitted per ton of product (lb/ton). Provide complete copies of any emission test 

reports or other reports that document measurements of emissions. Test 

reports and other emission measurement documents should include the following 

information: process identification; location of sampling point; stack diameter, 

temperature, and flow rate; test method, including analytical procedures; number of 

test runs; enussion concentration, emission rate, percent oxygen, and percent 

moisture for each test run; process operating rate; type of APCD; and APCD 

operating parameters. However, test reports with incomplete documentation may 

still be useful and should also be submitted. 

You do not need to fill out Table 5 for emission points that are covered by an 

emission test report that is included in your submittal. If emission test reports are 

not available, provide calculations that support your emission estimate, 

including the basis for all assumptions in the estimate. Note that emission 

estimates are needed for all HAP's that the facility emits or has the potential to emit. 

(Please refer to the HAP list in Attachment 1.) If the information requested in the 

table is contained in your facility's operating permit, you may reference the 

applicable sections of the permit rather than filling out the table.

B.1.c, Raw Materials and Fuels Used 

The raw materials used are ciay and water. Some brick will use a mix that requires a small amount 

of manganese or chromium to be added to the clay mix to darken the color of the brick. A die 

lubricant is also used at the extruder to maintain a flow of clay through the die. This material 

dissipates before the drying process begins. 

B.l.d Facility OperatingSchedule 

MBP grinding schedule is generally 2 eight hour shiffts, fve days per week. MBP extruding or 

pressing schedule is typically 2 eight hour shifts frve days per week. The fuing schedule for the 

tunnel kiln is 24 hours per day 7 days per week and 52 weeks per year. The kiln has a capacity to 

through put 36 cars per 24 hour day. The kiln holds 42 kiln cars. There are approximately 3,100 

standard brick equivalents per kiln car. The kiln is shut down for repairs on very rare occasions. 

The rate or speed in which cars are introduced to the kiln can be adjusted to meet fluctuating market 

demand. 

The two periodic kilns altemate usage about once every two weeks (about 2-1/2 kiln bums per 

month).

C.4. Potential Emissions Summary 

Forws C-2 and C-3 are completed & attached. Appendix A& B include calculation methods, 

assumptions and data used in determining potential emissions. 

Potential emissions include: 

1. Hydrogen fluoride from clay burning process. 

2. Carbon monoxide from natural gas burning process. 

3. Nitrogen oxides from natural gas burning process. 

4. Sulfur oxides from clay buining process. 

5. Potential VOC's from clay burning process 

6. PM10 from clay burning process, grinding process & car cleaning. 

7. Particulate from grinding process. 

8. VOC's from storage tanks. 

9. Particulate from maintenance and repairs. 

The greatest emission potential are the following: 

Hydrogen fluoride (HF) generated from the natural fluorides contained in clay. 

Fugitive dust from the grind'mg and material transfer processes as well as mining, hauling and yarding 

activities. The potential to emit is over 1;000 tons of dust annually.

Chapter 2 - Regufatory Requirements 

A. Description of Significant Emission Points 

A.1. Eguipment Description 

Emission Unit EU4.4 - Batch dryers 

Emission Point: Dryer stacks. 

Rate of discharge: Rate of discharge is the AP-42 factor for NOx of. . 5 lbs. per ton of brick 

manufactured. No recent stack test has been done on this dryer. 

Controls: There are no control devices on this dryer for air emissions. 

Emission Unit EU5.1 - Swindell-Dressler tunnel kiln 

Emission Point: Dressler kiln stack. Located in manufacturing/firing/packaging building complex. 

Rate of discharge: Rate of discharge is the AP-42 factor of 1 lb. HF per ton of brrick 

manufactured. No recent stack test has been done on this kiln. 

Controls: There are no control devices on this kiln for reducing air emissions. 

Emission Unit EU5.2 - Periodic kilns 

Emission Point: Shared exhaust stack. 

Rate of discharge: Rate of discharge is the AP-42 factor of 1 lb. of HF per ton of brick 

manufactured. No recent stack test has been done on these kilns. 

Controls: There are no control devices on this exhaust stack for air emissions. 

Note: Periodic kilns #1, 4-7, 9& 10 are not functionaL There are no plans to use 

them in the future. They are past the term of their usefizl life. Restoring them 

would exceed the cost of building modern, "state of the art" kilns. They are 

presently used for storage of materials. 

Emission Unit EU7.1 - Empty kiln car vacuum to Torit baghouse 

Emission Point: Roof vent from baghouse. 

Rate of discharge: 3,600 to 5,600 cfin 

Controls: Baghouse

Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): 

Silica will dissolve in hydrofluoric acid and produce a corrosive gas, silicon 

tetrafluoride. 

Hazardous Decomposition or Byproducts: None . 

Hazardous Polvmerization: will not occur. Conditions to Avoid: None 

SECTION VI - Health Hazard Data ;.: 

Route(s) of Entrv: 

Inhalation?: Yes Skin?: No Ingestion?: No 

Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): 

Dry-sawing or dry-grinding may result in the release of dust particles which may: 

Acute: May cause minor irritation of the eye, nose, or skin. 

Chronic: Excessive inhalation of dust particles for prolonged periods may result in 

lung disease (silicosis). Silicosis is a form of disabling pulmonary fibrosis which 

can be progressive and may lead to death. See "Carcinogenicity" section below. 

CarcinoqenicitV: 

NTP?:Yes . 

In the Sixth Annual Report on Carcinogens by The National Toxicology Program (NTP), 

it was concluded that respirable crystalline silica may reasonably be anticipated to 

be a carcinogen. The conclusion is based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity 

in laboratory animals, and limited evidence in humans. 

IARC Mono4raphs?: Yes . 

The'International Agency for Research on Cancer (IAF2C) Monographs on the Evaluation 

of the Carcinogenic Risk of Chemicals to Humans (Vol. 42, 1987) concludes that there 

is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of crystalline silica to experimental 

animals, and that there is limited evidence of the carcinogenicity of crystalline 

silica to humans. IARC Class 2A. 

Signs and Svmptoms of Exposure: 

Symptoms of excessive exposure are irritation of eyes, nose and/or throat, shortness of 

breath, sputum production. 

Medical Conditions Generallv Acgaravated by Exposure: 

Pre-existing pulmonary and/or respiratory lung diseases, including, but not limited to; 

Emphysema, Asthma, or Bronchitis. Pulmonary function may be reduced by inhalation of 

respirable crystalline silica. Lung scarring produced by excessive inhalation may lead to 

a progressive massive fibrosis of the lung which may aggravate other pulmonary conditions 

and diseases, increasing susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis. Progressive massive 

fibrosis may be accompanied by heart enlargement, heart failure, and pulmonary failure. 

Smoking aggravates the effects of exposure. Sensitive eye conditions may also be 

aggravated by excessive exposure. 

Emeraencv and First Aid Procedures: 

Eves: Flush eyes immediately and generously with water for 15 minutes. If 

irritation persists, seek medical attention. 

Inhalation: For gross inhalation, remove person immediately to fresh air. Give 

artificial respiration as needed, and seek medical attention as needed. 

Skin: Wash thoroughly. See physician if irritation persists.

SECTION IV. FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA 

Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical or COZon fires involving Manganese dioxide. 

Unusual fire or explosion hazards: Although not combustible, manganese,dioxide is a 

strong oxidizing agent. It may increase the burning rate of combustibles with a flareburning effect. It may cause reignition after a fire is extinguished. Oxygen from the 

thermal decomposition of Mn02facilitates combustion. 

special Fire-Fighting Procedureai Since fire may produce toxic fumes, wear a seJ.fcontained braathing apparatue (BCSA) ws th full faeopioce operated in the preesurademand or positive-pressure mode. Be aware of runoff from fire control methode. Do not 

release to sewers or waterways.

I SECTION V. REACTIVITY DATA 

Stability: This product is a stable at room temperature in cloeed containere under 

normal conditions of storage and handling conditions. Hazardous polymerization will not 

occur. 

Chemical incompatibilities: Manganese dioxide is a powerful oxidizer, hence it should 

not be heated or rubbed with organic matter or other easily oxidizable substances, 

e.g., sulfur, sulfides, phosphides, hypophosphides, etc.. Flammable by chemical 

reaction. Incompatible with hydrogen peroxide; sodium peroxide. Keep away from heat and 

flammable materials. 

SECTION VI. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION 

Carcinogenicity: The NTP, IARC, AND OSHA do not list manganese dioxide as a carcinogen. 

summary of risks: Manganese is an essential trace element for living organisms. 

Although found in all human tissue, acute or chronic manganese poisoning can occur from 

excessive intake via inhalation or ingestion. Manganese dioxide dust inhalation can 

irritate the respiratory tract and lead to lung damage, pleuritis, bronchitis, and 

increased incidence of respiratory infection. Large inhaled particles may be cleared 

from the respiratory tract and swallowed, but small particles are eventually absorbed 

into the blood. 

Medical conditions which may be aggravated by contact: Lungs; central nervous system 

diseases, psychiatric disorders, eyes. 

Target organs: Respiratory system, central nervous system.

HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION continued from page 2 

Acute Effects: Exposure to high concentrations of manganese dioxide causes an 

influenza-like illness (metal fume fever). The 24 to 48 hour illness is characterized 

by chills, fever, aching muscles, dryness in the mouth and throat, and headache. 

ManganesA duet and fumos are minor irritants to tho eyes and completely innocuous to 

the intact skin. Manganese pleuritis, bronchitis, or pneumonia may also occur. 

Chronic Effects: Prolonged excessive inhalation can bring manganese into the body via 

both the lungs.and digestive tract (swallowed mucous). to cause systemic poisoning. 

Chronic poisoning is usually in 6 to 24 month. Syzaptoms include apathy, anorexia, 

headache, weakness, and easy fatigue, then clumsiness, speech problems and other 

central nervous system effects. Progressive and permanent disability can result from 

chronic untreated manganese poisoning, but it is not fatal. 

signs & symptoms of overexposure:

SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA (cont.) 

OVEREXPOSURE EFFECTS: 

CONTAINS CRYSTALLINE SILICA: 

Crystalline silica can cause silicosis, a lung disease 

characterized ,..by coughing, wheezing, impaired lung function 

and increased,sputum production. This damage can be 

progressive and may cause death. May cause cancer following 

repeated and prolonged inhalation of the fine dust. Smoking 

aggravates these effects. Skin and eye contact may cause 

irritation due to mechanical abrasion. 

This product contains mixed metal oxide pigment(s) which 

consist of iron oxide, trivalent chromium and zinc oxide in 

combination with other materials. 

~ICONTAINS IRON OXIDE (as reacted into the pigment): 

Long-term inhalation of iron oxide dust may lead to siderosis 

or iron deposition in the 1ung. This is not considered to be 

a hazardous condition. 

CONTAINS CHROMIUM (III) COMPOUNDS: 

Compounds of chromium, in its trivalent state, have no 

established toxicity. When swallowed, it is not expected to 

cause local or systemic effects since it is poorly absorbed. 

No specific effects have been observed from inhalation. 

Skin contact has been reported to cause skin irritation 

but not ulceration. Allergic skin reactions may occur in 

sensitive individuals, although it is believed that the 

hexavalent (VI) form of chromium is responsible for most 

of the reported cases.

SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION 

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW 

This product is a chemically inert, non-combustible mineral. A single exposure will 

not result in serious adverse effects. Excessive inhalation of dust may cause lung 

disease, silicosis, with symptoms of shortness of breath and reduced pulmonary 

function. See "Cancer Status" in this Section 3. 

HEAI,TH HAZARDS : 

Inhalation: Breathing silica dust may not cause noticeable injury or illness even 

though permanent lung damage may be occurring. Inhalation of dust may have the 

following serious chronic health effects: 

Silicosis: Excessive inhalation of.respirable crystalline silica dust may 

cause a progressive, disabling and sometimes fatal lung disease 

called silicosis. Symptoms include cough, shortness of breath, 

wheezing, non-specific chest illness and reduced pulmonary 

function. This disease is exacerbated by smoking. Individuals with 

silicosis are predisposed to develop tuberculosis. 

/ Cancer Status: The International Agency for Research on Cancer has determined 

that there is "sufficient evidence" for carcinogenicity of 

crystalline silica to experimental animals and "limited evidence" 

with respect to humans (Group 2A - probably carcinogenic to 

humans). The National - Toxicology Program classifies respirable 

crystalline silica.as "reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen". 

IARC will be convening during October 1996 to update its 

evaluation of crystalline silica. The updated information, when 

ultimately published, will appear in IARC Monograph 68, Silica, 

Some Silicates and Organic Fibres and must be consulted in 

conjunction with the use of these materials. 

Other Data with Possible Relevance to Human Health: 

There is some evidence that breathing respirable crystalline,_ 

silica or the disease silicosis is associated with an increased 

incidence of significant disease endpoints such as scleroderma (an 

immune system disorder manifested by fibrosis of the lungs, skin 

and other internal organs) and kidney disease. 

Inhalation of dust may cause irritation of the nose, throat and respiratory passages. 

Skin Contact: No adverse effects expected. 

_Eye Contact: Contact may cause mechanical irritation and possible injury.
