GRAIN ELEVATOR AND PROCESSOR NSPS INDUSTRY SURVEY 

INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 

This survey form is to be completed by a respondent for each of its wholly owned facilities as described in the 

following four paragraphs (A-D), using the definitions at the end of this introductory section. Respondents must 

meet the requirements of paragraphs A, B, and C. 

A. This survey is limited to the following facilities: any “grain elevator” that would constitute a “grain 

terminal elevator” or a “grain storage elevator” (as those terms are defined by Subpart DD (40 CFR 

60.301)) if only permanent storage or both permanent and temporary storage at the grain elevator are 

taken into account. A respondent need not provide data for any facility not possessing this type of 

grain elevator. 

B. EPA is interested in obtaining information about the following categories of grain elevators: 

(1) Country grain elevators with storage capacity^ ≥ 2,500,000 bushels 

(2) Other stand-alone elevators with storage capacity^ ≥ 2,500,000 bushels 

(3) Wheat flour mill elevators *

(4) Wet corn mill elevators*

(5) Dry corn mill (human consumption) elevators*

(6) Rice mill elevators*

(7) Soybean oil extraction elevators* 

^”Storage capacity” may include only permanent storage capacity, or it may include both permanent and temporary 

storage capacity. 

*Grain elevators in categories 3-7 above must have storage capacity of ≥ 1,000,000 bushels. 

For each of the above seven categories, a respondent must submit a response for at least five 

facilities under its control. If a respondent has less than five facilities in a particular category, the 

respondent must provide information for all of its facilities in that category. 
C. EPA is also interested in obtaining information about the following types of facilities: 

 Grain elevators located in each EPA Region. 

 Five storage combinations: 

- Grain elevator alone 

- Grain elevator w/emergency storage 

- Grain elevator w/temporary storage 

- Grain elevator w/emergency and temporary storage 

- Grain elevator w/barge unloading 

 Facilities handling multiple grains. 

 Facilities handling only one grain. 

A respondent must submit a response for each of the facilities listed below to the extent it has any such 

facility under its control for each of the 7 categories listed in paragraph B: 

 At least one facility in each Region; 

 At least one facility with each of the grain storage combinations; 

 At least one facility that handles multiple grains; and 

 At least one facility that handles only one grain. 

For example, if a respondent has 18 facilities in the country grain elevator category, and 10 are in EPA 

Region 5 and eight are in EPA Region 6, the respondent shall provide information for a minimum of five 

grain elevators. At least one elevator must be in Region 5 and one in Region 6. In addition, if 

applicable, the respondent shall provide information on at least one facility with each of the five grain 

storage combinations. The respondent must also provide information for at least one facility that 

handles multiple grains and one that handles only one grain. In this example, assuming the respondent 

owned each of the different types of grain elevators of interest to EPA, it is possible to meet the EPA 

requirements with five facilities responding if the five chosen facilities can meet multiple requirements 

(e.g., handling multiple grains in EPA Region 5 and using each of the 5 storage methods). However, it 

may be necessary to provided additional facility responses to meet the EPA requirements if facilities 

cannot meet multiple EPA requirements. 

D. The total number of facilities for a respondent may exceed 35 (five facilities in each of the seven 

categories) when including the regional, combination, and grain information. However, no respondent 

is required to submit information about more than 51 facilities. 

 

Since one of the goals of this survey is to gather data on temporary storage facilities, EPA encourages 

respondents to exercise any discretion afforded by paragraphs A-D above in favor of submitting data on such 

facilities. For the same reason, EPA encourages respondents to include along with their required responses to 

this survey any supplemental data on such facilities that may go beyond the bounds of this survey but 

nevertheless would be helpful to EPA in understanding temporary storage facilities fully from the standpoint of 

Subpart DD. 

This survey is provided in paper format and by first-class mail. However, you may opt to complete this survey 

either in paper format or in electronic format. To obtain an electronic file (in Microsoft Word) to compile your 

responses, please contact Bill Schrock at schrock.bill@epa.gov. Please submit complete responses to Bill 

Schrock within 60 days after receipt by first-class mail. Any request for an extension of that 60-day period 

must be submitted to Bill Schrock within 30 days after receipt by first-class mail. Extensions will not be granted 

except upon a showing of undue hardship and then only for the minimum time reasonably necessary. 

It is important to note that, throughout this document, we have used the terms “permanent storage,” “temporary 

storage” and “emergency storage” to differentiate between those structures typically constructed of concrete 

and topped with metal roofs and the pyramid shaped storage units typically with low concrete walls and a vinyl 

top. The use of the terms “permanent storage” and “temporary storage” is strictly to reflect the current 
receipt by first-class mail. Any request for an extension of that 60-day period must be submitted 

to Bill Schrock within 30 days after receipt by first-class mail. Extensions will not be granted 

except upon a showing of undue hardship and then only for the minimum time reasonably 

necessary. 

It is important to note that, throughout this document, we have used the terms “permanent 

storage,” “temporary storage” and “emergency storage” to differentiate between those structures 

typically constructed of concrete and topped with metal roofs and the pyramid shaped storage 

units typically with low concrete walls and a vinyl top. The use of the terms “permanent storage” 

and “temporary storage” is strictly to reflect the current terminologies used in industry as defined 

by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and in no way represents any EPA decision as to 

how these units will be treated in any subsequent action. See definitions section for a list of 

terms used in this survey. 

In addition to the items listed in the survey forms that follow this introduction, we are also 

requesting copies of the following information to the extent it relates to grain elevators or 

portions of processing plants that consist of grain elevators: 

1. Your current air quality operating permit, if you have one. 

2. Copies of the most recent results from PM/PM10 emissions testing conducted at your 

facility within the last 3 years, including but not limited to, opacity measurements and 

stack testing. No new testing is required for this survey.

ENCLOSURE 2 

EPA's Information Gathering Authority 

Under Section 114 of the Clean Air Act 

 Under Section 114 of the Act (42 U.S.C. 7414), Congress has given the U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency broad authority to secure information needed for the purpose of (i) developing or assisting in the 

development of any implementation plan under Section 110 or 111(d), any standard of performance under 

Section 111, or any emission standard under Section 112; (ii) determining whether any person is in violation of 

any such standard of any requirement of such a plan; or (iii) carrying out any provision of this Act. Among 

other things, Section 114 authorizes EPA to make inspections, conduct tests, examine records, and require 

owners or operators of emission sources to submit information reasonably required for the purpose of 

developing such standards. In addition, the EPA Office of General Counsel has interpreted Section 114 to 

include authority to photograph or require submission of photographs of pertinent equipment, emissions, or 

both. 

 Under Section 114, EPA is empowered to obtain information described by that section even if you 

consider it to be confidential. You may, however, request that EPA treat such information as confidential. 

Information obtained under Section 114 and covered by such a request will ordinarily be released to the public 

only if EPA determines that the information is not entitled to confidential treatment.1

 Procedures to be used for 

making confidentiality determinations, substantive criteria to be used in such determinations, and special rules 

governing information obtained under Section 114 are set forth in 40 CFR Part 2 published in the Federal 

Register on September 1, 1976 (40 FR 36902). 

 Pursuant to § 2.204(a) of EPA's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) regulation, in the event a request is 

received, or it is determined that a request is likely to be received, or EPA desires to determine whether 

business information in its possession is entitled to confidential treatment even though no request for release 

of the information has been received, please be advised that EPA will seek, at that time, the following 

information to support your claim as required by § 2.204(e)(4) of EPA's FOIA regulations: 

1. Measures taken by your company to guard against undesired disclosure of the information to others; 

2. The extent to which the information has been disclosed to others, and the precautions taken in 

connection therewith;

First Notice-Only Change to

M045-21754-00016

ADM Grain Company was issued Minor Source Operating Permit (MSOP) No. M045-21754-

00016 on April 6, 2006 for a stationary grain processing operation located at 105 East Harrison, Allica,

Indiana 47918. On March 23, 2009, the Office of Air Quality (OAQ) received an application from the

source relating to the construction and operation of a new column grain dryer and the modification of

internal handling operation EP-04 to install additional conveyors that are of the same types as the other

permilledcolumn grain dryer and conveyor system. The new grain dryer and conveyors will comply with

the same applicable requirements and permit terms and conditions as the existing emissions units. The

total potenlialto emit for the source is based on total potential throughput for the source which is 600,000

tons per year. Because the total potential throughput will not increase as a result of adding these two new

units, it will not cause the source's total potential to emit for particulate mailer to increase. Therefore the

source's potential to ertlit will not be greater than the threshold levels specified in 326 lAC 2-2 or 326 lAC

2-3 and the uncontrolled/unlimited potential to emit of the entire source will continue to be less than the

threshold levels specified in 326 lAC 2-7. Therefore, the addition of the new column grain dryer and

associated conveyors to the permit is considered.a notice-only change pursuant to 326 lAC 2-6.1-6(d)(13).

Pursuant to the provisions of 326 lAC 2-6.1-6, the permit is hereby revised as follows with the deleted.

language as slril<eeuts and new language bolded: .

A.2 Emissions Units and Pollution Control Equipment Summary

This stationary source is approved to operate the following emissions units and pollution control

devices: '

(d) One (1) column grain dryer, identified as EP-07, with a maximum heat input capacity

of 65.8 MMBtu per hour, approved for construction in 2009, with a maximum

throughput of 6,000 bushels per hour.

~ (e) One (1) internal handling operation, identified as EP-04, constructed in 2003 and

approved for modification in 2009, with a maximum throughput of 30,000 bushels per

hour, equipped with enclosures for particulate control. The internal handling operation

consists of augers, belt conveyors, bucket elevator, and drag conveyors.

What if you are not satisfied with

this decision and you want to file an appeal?

Who may file an appeal?

The decision described in the accompanying Notice of Decision may be administratively

appealed. Filing an appeal is formally known as filing a "Petition for Administrative Review" to

request an "administrative hearing."

If you object to this decision issued by the Indiana Department ofEnvironmentaJ Management

(IDEM) and are: I) the person to whom the decision was directed, 2) a party specified by law as

being eligible to appeal, or 3) aggrieved or adversely affected by the decision, you are entitled to

file an appeal. (An aggrieved or adversely affected person is one who would be considered by

the court to be negatively impacted by the decision. If you file an appeal because you feel that

you are aggrieved, it will be up to you to demonstrate in your appeal how you are directly

impacted in a negative way by the decision).

The Indiana Office of Environmental Adjudication (OEA) was estabiished by state law - see

lndiana Code (lC) 4-21.5-7 - and is a separate state agency independent of IDEM. The

jurisdiction ofthe OEA is limited to the review of environmental pollution concerns or any

alleged technical or legal deficiencies associated with the IDEM decision making process. Once

your request has been received by OEA, your appeal may be considered by an Environmental

Law Judge.

'What is required of persons filing an appeal?

.Filing an appeal is a legal proceeding, so it is suggested that you consult with an attorney. Your

request for an appeal must include your name and address and identify your interest in the

decision (Or, if you are representing someone else, his or her name and address and their interest

in the decision). In addition, please include a photocopy of the accompanying Notice of Decision

or list the permit number and name of the applicant, or responsible party, in your Jetter.

Before a hearing is granted, you must identify the reason for the appeal request and the issues

proposed for consideration at the hearing. You also must identify the permit terms and

conditions that, in your judgment, would appropriately satisfy the requirements of law with

respect to the IDEM decision being appealed. That is, you must suggest an alternative to the

language in the permit (or other order, or decision) being appealed, and your suggested changes

must be consistent with all applicable laws (See Indiana Code 13-15-6-2) and rules (See Title

315 of the Indiana Administrative Code, or 3 I 5 lAC).

The effective date of this agency a~tion is stated on the accompanying Notice of Decision (or

otherJDEM decision notice). If you file a "Petition for Administrative Review" (appeal),you

may wish to specifically request that the action be "stayed" (temporarily halted) because most

appeals do not allow for an automatic "stay." If, after an evidentiary hearing, a "stay" is granted,

the IDEM-approved action may be halted altogether, or only allowed to continue in part, until a

final decision has been made regarding the appeal. However, if the action is not "stayed" the

IDEM-approved activity will be allowed to c~ntinue during the appeal process.

(See reverse side)
Where can you file an appeal?

If you wish to file an appeal, you must do so in writing. There are no standard forms to fill out

and submit, so you must state your case in a letter (called a petition for administrative review) to

the Indiana Office of Environmental Adjudication (OEA). Do not send the original copy of your

appeal request to IDEM. Instead, send or deliver your leiter to:

The Indiana Office of Environmental Adjudication

100 North Senate Ave.

Indiana Government Center North

Room N50lE

Indianapolis, IN 46204

If you file an appeal, also please send a copy of your appeal letter to the IDEM contact person

identified in the Notice of Decision, and to the applicant (person receiving an IDEM permit, or

other approval).

Your appeal (petition for administrative review) must be received by the Office of

Environmental Adjudication in a timely manner. Different types of permit approvals have

different deadlines for filing an appeal. The accompanying Notice of Decision (NOD) explains

how to determine the due date for filing an appeal for this particular permit. decision. To ensure

that you meet this filing requirement, your appeal request must be:

I) Delivered in person to the OEA by the close-of-business on the due date. (lfthe due date falls

on a day when the Office ofEnvironinental Adjudication (OEA) is closed for the weekend or

for a state holiday, then your petition will be accepted on the next business day on which

OEA is open.); or

2) Given to a private carrier who will deliver it to the OEA on your behalf, (and from whom

you must obtain a receipt dated on or before the due date); or

3) For those appeal requests sent by U.S. Mail, your letter must be postmarked by no later than

midnight of the due date; or .

4) Faxed to the OEA aUl7/233-9372 before the c1ose-of-business of the due date, provided

that the original signed "Petition for Administrative Review" is also sent, or delivered, to the

OEA in a timely manner.

Wbat are the costs associated witb filing an appeal?

The OEA does not charge a fee for filing documents for an administrative review or for the use

of its hearing facilities. However, OEA does charge a fifteen cent ($.15) per page fee for copies

of any documents you may request. Another cost that could be associated with your appeal

would be for attorney's fees. Although you have the option to act as your own attorney, the

administrative re\,iew and associated hearing are complex legal proceedings; therefore, you

should consider whether your interests would be better represented by an experienced attorney.

What can you expect from tbe Office of Environmental Adjudication (OEA) after yon file

for an appeal?

The OEA.will provide you with notice of any prehearing conferences, preliminary hearings,

hearings, "stays," or orders disposing of the review of this decision. In addition, you may

contact the OEA by phone at 317/232-8591 with any scheduling questions. However, technical

questions should be directed to IDEM at the number indicated on the Notice of Decision.

Do not expect to discuss details of your case with the OEA other than in a formal setting such as

a prehearing conference, a formal hearing, or a settlement conference. The OEA is not allowed

to discuss a case without all sides being present. All parties to the proceeding are expected to

appear at the initial prehearing conference.
