Plant with Baghouse Control. NSPS 

The holder of this permit shall comply with the conditions contained in this permit as well as all applicable provisions of the

Tennessee Air Pollution Control Regulations. 

CONDITIONS: 

1. The application that was utilized in the preparation of this permit is dated 

February 23, 2007, and is signed by Harold Kelley, Environmental Safety & Health 

Manager of the permitted facility. If this person terminates employment or is 

reassigned different duties and is no longer the responsible person to represent and 

bind the facility in environmental permitting affairs, the owner or operator of this 

air contaminant source shall notify the Technical Secretary of the change. Said 

notification shall be in writing and submitted within thirty (30) days of the change. 

The notification shall include the name and title of the new person assigned by the 

source owner or operator to represent and bind the facility in environmental 

permitting affairs. All representations, agreement to terms and conditions and 

covenants made by the former responsible person that were used in the establishment of 

limiting permit conditions on this permit will continue to be binding on the facility 

until such time that a revision to this permit is obtained that would change said 

representations, agreements and covenants.

SECTION I: The following conditions shall apply to all sections of this permit unless 

otherwise noted. Conditions 2–15. 

2. The permittee has elected to opt-out of being issued a major source operating permit 

pursuant to Rule 1200-3-9-.02(11)(a) of the Tennessee Air Pollution Control 

Regulations (TAPCR). The permittee would be considered a major source because their 

“potential to emit” for Carbon Monoxide was greater than 100 tons per year at the 

time of application. The permittee has agreed to be subject to limitations in order 

to be below the major source applicability threshold for Carbon Monoxide of 100 tons 

per year. 

3. Any non-compliance with any condition(s) of this permit set to restrain the 

“potential to emit” below the applicability thresholds of 1200-3-9-.02(11) of the 

Tennessee Air Pollution Control Regulations shall be reported in writing to the 

Technical Secretary within fifteen (15) working days of such discovery. This 

notification, at a minimum, shall include the identification of the source, 

identification of the permit condition(s) violated, and details of the violation. 

4. The permittee is placed on notice that Conditions 16 and 17 of this permit contain 

limitations that allow the permittee to opt-out of the major source operating permit 

program requirements specified in Division Rule 1200-3-9-.02(11). Failure to abide 

by these limits will not only subject the permittee to enforcement action by the 

State of Tennessee, but it may also result in the imposition of Federal enforcement 

action by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the loss of being 

federally recognized as a conditional major source. 

5. Compliance with Conditions 16 and 17 assures that this facility will be below the 

major source applicability threshold for carbon monoxide of 100 tons per year. 

This assurance is based on AP-42 Chapter 11, Section 1 (Hot Mix Asphalt Plants, 

dated December, 2000) from which the emission factors were used to calculate 

emissions as shown below:

Parameter Based on use of Natural Gas or No.2 fuel oil, or No.4 used oil as fuel; Drum Mix Plant

6. A written report stating the compliance status of this facility with Conditions 16 

and 17 shall be submitted by March 31 of every year. This report shall include the 

records required by Condition 24. This report shall cover the preceding calendar 

year and shall be submitted to the Environmental Field Office at the following 

address:

7. Should proof of compliance for the pollutant(s) with emission limitations placed on 

this permit be required, the emissions measuring test method(s) and procedure(s) are 

the following: 

Pollutant or Parameter Testing Methodology 

Sulfur Dioxide EPA Method 6 as published in the current 40 CFR 60, Appendix A 

Particulate Matter EPA Method 5 as published in the current 40 CFR 60, Appendix A 

Carbon Monoxide EPA Method 10 as published in the current 40 CFR 60, Appendix A 

Nitrogen Oxides EPA Method 7 as published in the current 40 CFR 60, Appendix A 

Volatile Organic Compounds EPA Method 25A as published in the current 40 CFR 60, Appendix A 

8. Visible emissions from roads and parking areas shall not exhibit greater than 10 

percent opacity utilizing Tennessee Visible Emissions Evaluation (TVEE) Method 1. 

This condition is established pursuant to Rule 1200-3-8-.01(1) of the Tennessee Air 

Pollution Control Regulations. 

9. Fugitive emissions from this facility shall be controlled as specified in Rule 1200-

3-8-.01. Specifically, no person shall cause, suffer, allow, or permit fugitive dust 

to be emitted in such manner to exceed five (5) minutes per hour or twenty (20) 

minutes per day as to produce a visible emission beyond the property line of the 

property on which the emission originates, excluding malfunction of equipment as 

provided in Chapter 1200-3-20. Fugitive emissions from this facility shall be 

determined by Tennessee Visible Emissions Evaluation Method 4. This condition is 

established pursuant to Rule 1200-3-8-.01(2) of the Tennessee Air Pollution Control 

Regulations. 

10. Visible emissions from this facility not covered by Conditions 8 and 9 shall not 

exhibit greater than 20 percent opacity, except for one (1) six-minute period in any 

one (1) hour period and for no more than four (4) six-minute periods in any twentyfour (24) hour period. Visible emissions from this facility shall be determined by 

EPA Method 9, as published in the current 40 CFR 60, Appendix A (six-minute 

average). TAPCR 1200-3-5-.03(6) and TAPCR 1200-3-5-.01(1) 

11. Routine maintenance, as required to maintain specified emission limits, shall be 

performed on the air pollution control devices. Maintenance records shall be 

recorded in a suitable permanent form and kept available for inspection by the 

Division. These records must be retained for a period of not less than five (5) 

years. 

12. The source(s) controlled by the air pollution control device(s) shall not operate 

unless the control device(s) is in operation. In the event a malfunction/failure of 

a control device(s) occurs, the operation of the process(es) controlled by the 

control device(s) shall be regulated by the provisions of Chapter 1200-3-20 of the 

Tennessee Air Pollution Control Regulations. 

13. This permit is valid only at this location. 

14. The issuance of this permit supersedes any permit(s) previously issued for this air 

contaminant facility. 

15. The permittee shall apply for renewal of this permit not less than 60 days prior to 

the permit’s expiration date pursuant to Division Rule 1200-3-9-.02(3).
