The following sources are subject to permitting requirements of Part 70:

1. Any major source;

2. Any source, including an area source, subject to a standard, limitation, or other requirement 

under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act (Act);

3. Any source, including an area source, subject to a standard or other requirement under 

Section 112 of the Act, except that a source is not required to obtain a permit solely because it 

is subject to regulations or requirements under Section 112(r) of the Act;

4. Any affected source under the Title IV Acid Rain Program;

5. Any source in a source category designated by the Administrator of the US Environmental 

Protection Agency (US EPA) (Administrator) pursuant to this Section; and

6. Any source listed in SC Regulation 61-62.70.3(a) that is exempt from the requirement to 

obtain a permit under SC Regulation 61-62.70.3(b) may opt to apply for a permit under this 

Part 70 program.

The following source categories are exempted from the obligation to obtain a Part 70 permit, but are 

not exempted from other SC Department of Health and Environmental Control (Department) and US 

EPA requirements [SC Regulation 61-62.70.3(b)(4)]:

1. All sources and source categories that would be required to obtain a permit solely because 

they are subject to 40CFR60, Subpart AAA - Standards of Performance for New Residential 

Wood Heaters; and

2. All sources and source categories that would be required to obtain a permit solely because 

they are subject to 40 CFR 61, Subpart M - National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants for Asbestos, Section 61.145, Standard for Demolition and Renovation.

PART 3.0 GENERAL CONDITIONS

This section describes conditions and provisions applicable to all Part 70 sources. Specific source 

category conditions and requirements are contained in Part 5.0 of this permit. (Revised 05/21/99)

A. PERMIT ISSUANCE [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(a)(1)]

A permit, permit modification, or renewal may be issued only if the following conditions have been 

met:

1. The Department has received a complete application for a permit, permit modification, or 

permit renewal;
Lafarge Building Materials, Inc. (Harleyville Plant)

TV-0900-0004

Page 7 of 90

(Permit updated12/8/05 and 11/8/06)

2. Except for modifications qualifying for minor permit modification procedures under SC 

Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(2) and (3), the Department has complied with the requirements for 

public participation under SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(h);

3. The Department has complied with the requirements for notifying and responding to affected 

States under SC Regulation 61-62.70.8(b);

4. The conditions of the permit provide for compliance with all applicable requirements and the 

requirements of Part 70; and

5. The Administrator has received a copy of the proposed permit and any notices required 

under SC Regulation 61-62.70.8(a) and (b), and has not objected to issuance of the permit 

under SC Regulation 61-62.70.8(c) within the required time frame.

A Title V operating permit does not excuse any facility from the preconstruction permitting 

requirements under SC Regulation 61-62.1.

B. PERMIT EXPIRATION AND RENEWAL [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(c)] (Revised 11/13/98)

Permit expiration terminates the source’s right to operate unless a timely and complete renewal 

application has been submitted consistent with SC Regulation 61-62.70.5(a)(1)(iii), 

62.70.5(a)(2)(iv), and 62.70.7(b). In this case, the permit shall not expire until the renewal permit 

has been issued or denied. All terms and conditions of the permit including any permit shield that 

may be granted pursuant to SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(f) shall remain in effect until the renewal 

permit has been issued or denied.

Permits being renewed are subject to the same procedural requirements, including those for public 

participation, affected State and US EPA review, that apply to initial permit issuance.

C. SEVERABILITY [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(5)]

The provisions of this permit are severable, and if any provision of this permit, or application of any 

provision of this permit to any circumstance is held invalid, the application of such provision to other 

circumstances, and the remainder of this permit shall not be affected thereby.

D. FEE ASSESSMENT AND PAYMENT [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(7)]

The owners or operators of Part 70 sources shall pay fees to the Department consistent with the fee 

schedule approved pursuant to South Carolina Regulation 62.70.9.

E. SUBMITTAL OF INFORMATION [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(6)(v)] 

The permittee shall furnish to the Department, within a reasonable time, any information that the 

Department may request, in writing, to determine whether cause exists for modifying, revoking, 

reissuing, or terminating the permit or to determine compliance with the permit. Upon request, the 

permittee shall also furnish to the Department copies of records required to be kept by the permit or, 
Lafarge Building Materials, Inc. (Harleyville Plant)

TV-0900-0004

Page 8 of 90

(Permit updated12/8/05 and 11/8/06)

for information claimed to be confidential, the permittee may furnish such records directly to the 

Administrator along with a claim of confidentiality. The Department may also request that the 

permittee furnish such records directly to the Administrator along with a claim of confidentiality.

F. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(h)]

Except for modifications qualifying for minor permit modification procedures, all permit 

proceedings, including initial permit issuance, significant modifications, and renewals, shall provide 

adequate procedures for public notice including offering an opportunity for public comment and 

hearing on the draft permit. These procedures shall meet all requirements of SC Regulation 61-

62.70.7(h).

G. PERMIT REOPENING [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(f)] (Revised 05/21/99)

This permit shall be reopened and revised under any of the following circumstances:

1. Additional applicable requirements under the Act become applicable to a major Part 70 

source for which three or more years remain on the original term of the permit. Such 

revisions shall be made not later than eighteen (18) months following promulgation of 

relevant standards or regulations unless the regulation specifically provides for a longer 

compliance period. No such reopening is required if the effective date of the requirement is 

later than the date on which the permit is due to expire, unless the original permit or any of 

its terms and conditions has been extended pursuant to SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(c)(1)(ii).

2. Additional requirements, including excess emission requirements, become applicable to an 

affected source under the acid rain program. Excess emissions offset plans shall be deemed 

to be incorporated into this permit upon approval by the Administrator.

3. The Department or EPA determines that the permit contains a material mistake or that 

inaccurate statements were made in establishing the emissions standards or other terms or 

conditions of the permit.

4. The Administrator or the Department determines that the permit must be revised or revoked 

to assure compliance with the applicable requirements.

In addition, the permit may be modified, revoked, reopened, and reissued, or terminated for cause by 

the Department. The filing of a request by the permittee for a permit modification, revocation and 

reissuance, or termination, or of a notification of planned changes or anticipated noncompliance does 

not stay any permit condition. [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(6)(iii)]

Proceedings to reopen and issue a permit shall follow the same procedures as apply to initial permit 

issuance and shall affect only those parts of the permit for which cause to reopen exists. Such 

reopenings shall be as expeditious as practicable. Reopenings shall not be initiated before a notice of 

such intent is provided to the Part 70 source by the Department at least thirty (30) days in advance of 

the date that the permit is to be reopened, except that the Department may provide a shorter time 

period in the case of an emergency.

(Permit updated12/8/05 and 11/8/06)

H. TEMPORARY SOURCES [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(e)]

In accordance with SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(e), the Department may issue a single permit 

authorizing emissions from similar operations by the same source owner or operator at multiple 

temporary locations. The operation must be temporary and involve at least one change in location 

during the term of the permit. No sources subject to Title IV of the Act shall be permitted as a 

temporary source.

I. EMERGENCY PROVISIONS [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(g)(3)] (Revised 05/21/99)

In the case of an emergency, as defined in SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(g), the permittee shall verify an 

affirmative defense of emergency through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other 

relevant evidence that:

1. An emergency occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the emergency;

2. The permitted facility was at the time being properly operated; and

3. During the period of the emergency the permittee took all reasonable steps to minimize 

levels of emissions that exceeded the emission standards, or other requirements in the 

permit.;

Additionally, the permittee shall submit verbal notification of the emergency to the Department 

within twenty-four (24) hours of the time when emission limitations were exceeded, followed by 

written notifications within thirty (30) days. This notice fulfills the requirement of SC Regulation 

61-62.70.6(a)(3)(iii)(B). This notice must contain a description of the emergency, any steps taken to 

mitigate emissions, and corrective actions taken.

This provision is in addition to any emergency or upset provision contained in any applicable 

requirement. In any enforcement proceeding, the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an 

emergency has the burden of proof.

J. PROPERTY RIGHTS [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(6)(iv)]

This permit does not convey any property rights of any sort, or any exclusive privilege.

K. ECONOMIC INCENTIVES, MARKETABLE PERMITS, EMISSION TRADING 

[SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(8)]

No permit revision shall be required, under any approved economic incentives, marketable permits, 

emissions trading and other similar programs or processes for changes that are provided for in this 

permit.
Lafarge Building Materials, Inc. (Harleyville Plant)

TV-0900-0004

Page 10 of 90

(Permit updated12/8/05 and 11/8/06)

L. TITLE IV SOURCES [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(4)]

The permittee is prohibited from emissions exceeding any allowances that the source lawfully holds 

under Title IV of the Act or the regulations promulgated thereunder. No permit revision shall be 

required for increases in emissions that are authorized by allowances acquired pursuant to the acid 

rain program, provided that such increases do not require a permit revision under any other 

applicable requirement. No limit shall be placed on the number of allowances held by a source. The 

source may not, however, use allowances as a defense for noncompliance with any other applicable 

requirement. Any such allowances shall be accounted for according to the procedures established in 

regulations promulgated under Title IV of the Act.

Where an applicable requirement of the Act is more stringent than an applicable requirement of 

regulations promulgated under Title IV of the Act, both provisions shall be incorporated into the 

permit and shall be enforceable by the Administrator. [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(1)(ii)]

M. ADMINISTRATIVE PERMIT AMENDMENTS [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(d)(3)]

An administrative permit amendment as defined in SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(d) can be made by the 

Department consistent with the following:

1. The Department shall take no more than sixty (60) days from receipt of a request for an 

administrative permit amendment to take final action on such request, and may incorporate 

such changes without providing notice to the public or affected States provided that it 

designates any such permit revisions as having been made pursuant to this paragraph.

2. The Department shall submit a copy of the revised permit to the Administrator.

3. The source may implement the changes addressed in the request for an administrative 

amendment immediately upon submittal of the request, except transfer/ownership which 

must comply with SC Regulation 61-62.1, Section II(E).

N. MINOR PERMIT MODIFICATIONS [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(2)]

Minor permit modifications can be made by the Department in accordance with SC Regulation 61-

62.70.7(e)(2)(i). An application requesting the use of minor permit modification procedures shall 

meet the requirements of SC Regulation 61-62.70.5(c) and shall include items as specified in SC 

Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(2)(ii).

The Department may modify the procedure outlined in SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(2) to process 

groups of a source's applications for certain modifications eligible for minor permit modification 

processing. Group processing of minor permit applications will proceed as outlined in SC Regulation 

61-62.70.7(e)(3).

modifications listed in SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(4)(i). Significant permit modifications shall 

meet all requirements of this Part 70, including those for applications, public participation, review by 

affected States, and review by EPA, as they apply to permit issuance and permit renewal.

P. DUTY TO COMPLY [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(6)(i)]

The permittee must comply with all of the conditions of this permit. Any permit noncompliance 

constitutes a violation of the SC Pollution Control Act and/or the Federal Clean Air Act and is 

grounds for enfor action; for permit termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or for 

denial of permit renewal application.

Q. INSPECTION AND ENTRY [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(c)(2)]

Upon presentation of credentials and other documents as may be required by law, the permittee shall 

allow the Department or an authorized representative to perform the following:

1. Enter upon the permittee's premises where a Part 70 source is located or emissions-related 

activity is conducted, or where records must be kept under the conditions of the permit.

permittee from compliance with applicable local laws, ordinances, and regulations.

Condition 

Number Condition

2.

Air dispersion modeling (or other method) has demonstrated that this facility’s operation will not interfere 

with the attainment and maintenance of any state or federal standard. Any changes in the parameters used in 

the air dispersion modeling may require a review by the facility to determine continuing compliance with 

these standards. These potential changes include any decrease in stack height, decrease in stack velocity, 

increase in stack diameter, decrease in stack exit temperature, increase in building height or building 

additions, increase in emission rates, decrease in distance between stack and property line, changes in vertical 

stack orientation, and installation of a rain cap that impedes vertical flow. Parameters that are not required in 

the determination will not invalidate the demonstration if they are modified. The emission rates used in the 

determination are listed in Attachment A of this permit. Higher emission rates may be administratively 

incorporated into Attachment A of this permit provided a demonstration using these higher emission rates 

shows the attainment and maintenance of any state or federal standard or with any other applicable 

requirement. Variations from the input parameters in the demonstration shall not constitute a violation unless

40CFR63 Subpart LLL SSM Plan Requirements

(40CFR63.6(e)(3)(i) and 40CFR63.6(e)(3)(vi)) When a source becomes subject to 40CFR63 Subpart LLL, 

the owner/operator shall develop and implement a written Startup, Shutdown and Malfunction Plan for 

operating and maintaining the source subject to that subpart during periods of startup, shutdown, and 

malfunction. The plan shall describe in detail, procedures for operating and maintaining the source during 

periods of startup, shutdown and malfunction and also include a program of corrective action for 

malfunctioning process, air pollution control and air pollution monitoring equipment used to comply with a 

relevant standard. The owner/operator may choose to maintain a separate Startup, Shutdown and 

Malfunction Plan for each source subject to 40CFR63 Subpart LLL or choose to maintain one plan for all 

sources subject to 40CFR63 Subpart LLL. If the owner/operator chooses to maintain one plan, when new 

sources subject to 40CFR63 Subpart LLL are added, it shall revise the plan to include the required 

information for that source no later than 180 calendar days after placing it in operation. To satisfy the 

requirements to develop a startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan, the owner/operator may use the affected 

source's SOP manual, OSHA or other plan, provided the alternative plans meet all the requirements of this 

condition and are made available for inspection by Department personnel.

source subject to 40CFR63 Subpart LLL, operate and maintain it (including associated air pollution control 

and monitoring equipment) in accordance with the procedures specified in its Startup, Shutdown and 

Malfunction Plan.

Procedures Specified in an Affected Source's SSM Plan (40CFR63.6(e)(3)(iii), 40CFR63.10(b)(1) and 

40CFR63.10(b)(2)(v))) For process and air pollution control equipment subject to 40CFR63 Subpart LLL, 

the owner/operator shall record all information necessary to demonstrate conformance with an affected 

source's Startup, Shutdown and Malfunction Plan when all actions taken during periods of startup, 

shutdown and malfunction (including corrective actions to restore malfunctioning process and air pollution 

control and monitoring equipment to its normal or usual manner of operation) are consistent with the 

procedures specified in the plan. The information needed to demonstrate conformance with the Startup, 

Shutdown and Malfunction Plan may be recorded using a "checklist," or some other effective form of

reasonable revisions to a Startup, Shutdown and Malfunction Plan for any of the reasons specified by 

paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(4) of this condition. The owner/operator may periodically revise a Startup, 

Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan for an affected source as necessary to satisfy the requirements of 

40CFR63 Subpart LLL or to reflect changes in equipment or procedures at the affected source. Unless the 

Department specifies otherwise, the owner/operator may make such revisions to a Startup, Shutdown and 

Malfunction Plan without prior approval by the Department. However, each such revision to a Startup, 

Shutdown and Malfunction Plan shall be reported in the semiannual report required by condition 6.B.1(i). If 

a Startup, Shutdown and Malfunction Plan fails to address or inadequately addresses an event that meets the 

characteristics of a malfunction (as defined in condition 6.B.1(h)) but was not included in the plan at the 

time that the owner/operator developed the plan, then it shall revise the plan within 45 calendar days after 

the event to include detailed procedures for operating and maintaining the source during similar malfunction 

events and a program of corrective action for similar malfunctions of process or air pollution control and

Records of All CMS Measurements Needed to Demonstrate Compliance With A Relevant Standard

(40CFR63.10(b)(1) and 40CFR63.10(b)(2)(vii)) The owner/operator shall record all required measurements 

needed to demonstrate compliance with 40CFR63 Subpart LLL. To demonstrate compliance with that 

subpart, the records shall include, but are not limited to, 15-minute averages of CMS data, raw performance 

testing measurements and raw performance evaluation measurements that support the data that the 

owner/operator is required to report. Where a CEMS is automated and the calculated data averages do not 

exclude periods of CEMS breakdown or malfunction, in lieu of maintaining a file of all CEMS subhourly, 

the owner/operator shall retain the most recent consecutive three averaging periods of subhourly 

measurements and a file that contains a hard copy of the data acquisition system algorithm used to reduce 

the measured data into the reportable form of the standard. An automated CEMS is defined as a CEMS that 

records and reduces the measured data to the form of the pollutant emission standard through the use of a 

computerized data acquisition system. Where the measured data from a CEMS is manually reduced to 

obtain the reportable form of the standard, and the calculated data averages do not exclude periods of 

CEMS breakdown or malfunction, in lieu of maintaining a file of all CEMS subhourly measurements, the 

owner/operator shall retain all subhourly measurements for the most recent reporting period. The subhourly 

measurements shall be retained for 120 calendar days from the date of the most recent Summary or Excess 

Emission Report submitted to the Department The Department, upon notification, may require the Lafarge 

Building Materials (Harleyville Plant) to maintain all measurements if it determines these records are 

required to more accurately assess the compliance status of the affected source These records shall be 

retained for a calendar period of five(5) years following the date of each measurement. At a minimum, the 

most recent two(2) years of records shall be retained on-site and on-file. Records for the remaining three(3) 

years may be retained off-site. Such records may be maintained on microfilm, on a computer, on computer

relevant standard is less than 50% of the relevant standard. For affected sources subject to emission 

limitations expressed as control efficiency levels, the owner/operator may petition the Department to 

substitute the CEMS relative accuracy test with the procedures in Section 10 of Performance Specification 

2 if the control device exhaust emission rate is less than 50% of the level needed to meet the control 

efficiency requirement. The alternative procedures do not apply if the CEMS is used continuously to 

determine compliance with a relevant standard.

6.B.5(j)

Department Rescission of Approval to use the Alternative to the CEMS Relative Accuracy Test

(40CFR63.8(f)(6)(iii)) The Department will review its permission to use an alternative to the CEMS relative 

accuracy test and may rescind such permission if the CEMS data from a successful completion of the 

alternative relative accuracy procedure indicate that the affected source's emissions are approaching the 

level of the relevant standard. The criterion for reviewing the permission is that the collection of CEMS data 

shows that emissions have exceeded 70% of the relevant standard for any averaging period, as specified in 

the relevant standard. For affected sources subject to emission limitations expressed as control efficiency 

levels, the criterion for reviewing the permission is that the collection of CEMS data shows that exhaust 

emissions have exceeded 70% of the level needed to meet the control efficiency requirement for any 

averaging period, as specified in the relevant standard. The owner/operator for an affected source shall 

maintain records and determine the level of emissions relative to the criterion for permission to use an 

alternative for relative accuracy testing. If this criterion is exceeded, then the owner/operator shall notify the 

Department within 10 calendar days of such occurrence and include a description of the nature and cause of 

the increased emissions. The Department will review the notification and may rescind permission to use an 

alternative and require the owner/operator to conduct a relative accuracy test of the CEMS as specified in 

Section 7 of Performance Specification 2.

Conduct of Pollutant Performance Tests and Reduction of Data

(40CFR63.7(e)(2), 40CFR63.90 and 40CFR63.1358(b)(3)) Pollutant Performance tests shall be conducted

(o)(1) The Department specifies or approves, in specific cases, the use of a test method with minor changes 

in methodology Such changes may be approved in conjunction with approval of the site-specific Pollutant 

Performance Test Plan. A minor change to a test method is defined as a modification to a federally 

enforceable test method that does not decrease the stringency of the emission limitation or standard, has no 

national significance (e.g., does not affect implementation of the applicable regulation for other affected 

sources, does not set a national precedent, and individually does not result in a revision to the test method)

safety concerns of an affected source. 

(o)(2) The Department or EPA Region IV approves the use of an intermediate or major change or 

alternative to a test method the results of which the Department or EPA Region IV has determined to be 

adequate for indicating whether a specific affected source is in compliance. A intermediate change to test 

method is defined as a within-method modification to a federally enforceable test method involving “proven 

technology” (generally accepted by the scientific community as equivalent or better) that is applied on a 

site-specific basis and that may have the potential to decrease the stringency of the associated emission 

limitation or standard. Though site-specific, an intermediate change may set a national precedent for a 

source category and may ultimately result in a revision to the federally enforceable test method. In order to 

be approved, an intermediate change must be validated according to 40CFR63 Appendix A Method 301 to 

demonstrate that it provides equal or improved accuracy and precision. A major change to a test method is 

defined as a modification to a federally enforceable test method that uses “unproven technology or 

procedures” (not generally accepted by the scientific community) or is an entirely new method (sometimes 

necessary when the required test method is unsuitable). A major change to a test method may be sitespecific, or may apply to one or more sources or source categories, and will almost always set a national 

precedent. In order to be approved, a major change must be validated according to 40CFR63 Appendix A 

Method 301. 

(o)(3) The Department or EPA Region IV approves shorter sampling times or smaller sample volumes 

when necessitated by process variables or other factors.

(o)(4) The Department waives the requirement for Pollutant Performance Tests because the owner/operator 

for an affected source has demonstrated by other means to the Department’s satisfaction that the affected 

source is in compliance with the relevant standard.

6.B.6(p)

Waiver of a Pollutant Performance Test

(40CFR63.7(h)(1) and 40CFR63.7(h)(2)) Until a waiver of a Pollutant Performance Testing requirement 

has been granted by the Department, the owner/operator for an affected source remains subject to the 

applicable performance testing requirements in the relevant standard. Individual performance tests may be 

waived upon written application to the Department if, in its judgment, the source is meeting the relevant 

standard(s) on a continuous basis, a source is being operated under an Extension of Compliance or the 

owner/operator has requested an Extension of Compliance and the Department is still considering that 

request.

Request to Waive Pollutant Performance Tests

(40CFR63.7(h)(3)) If a request is made for an Extension of Compliance, the application for a waiver of an 

initial Pollutant Performance Test shall accompany the information required for the request for an Extension 

of Compliance. If no Extension of Compliance is requested or if the owner/operator has requested an 

Extension of Compliance and the Department is s till considering that request, the application for a waiver 

of an initial Pollutant Performance Test shall be submitted at least 60 calendar days before scheduled date 

of the performance test if the site-specific test Pollutant Performance Test Plan is not submitted. If an 

application for a waiver of a subsequent performance test is made, the application may accompany any 

required Compliance Progress Report, Compliance Status Report or Excess Emissions and CMS 

Performance but it shall be submitted at least 60 calendar days before the scheduled date of the performance 

test if the site-specific Pollutant Performance Test Plan is not submitted. Any application for a waiver of a 

performance test shall include information justifying the owner/operator request for a waiver, such as the 

technical or economic infeasibility, or the impracticality, of the affected source performing the required test.

6.B.6(r)

Department Approval of the Request to Waive a Pollutant Performance Test

(40CFR63.7(h)(4) and 40CFR63.7(h)(5)) The Department will approve or deny a request for a waiver of a 

Pollutant Performance Test when it approves or denies an Extension of Compliance, approves or 

disapproves a site-specific Pollutant Performance Test Plan, makes a determination of compliance 

following the submission of a required Compliance Status Report or Excess Emissions and CMS 

Performance Report or makes a determination of suitable progress towards compliance following the 

submission of a Compliance Progress Report, whichever is applicable. Approval of any request to waive a 

Pollutant Performance Test shall not abrogate the Department's authority under the Clean Air Act or in any 

way prohibit the Department from later canceling the waiver. The cancellation will be made only after 

notice is given to the owner/operator.

6.B.6(s)

Use of a COMS During Pollutant Performance Tests

(40CFR63.6(h)(7)(i) and 40CFR63.10(e)(4)) The owner/operator for an affected source required to be 

continuously monitored using a COMS shall record the monitoring data produced during a Pollutant 

Performance Test and shall furnish the Department with a written report of the monitoring results. The 

report of COMS data shall be submitted simultaneously with the Final Written Report of the Pollutant 

Performance Test Results as specified in condition 6.B.8(k).

6.B.6(t)

Reduction of COMS Data During a Pollutant Performance Test

(40CFR63.6(h)(7)(iii)) For the purposes of determining compliance with an opacity emission standard 

during a required Pollutant Performance Test using COMS data, the COMS data shall be reduced to six(6)-

minute averages over the duration of the mass emission performance test.

6.B.6(u)

Proper Operation of a COMS During a Pollutant Performance Test

(40CFR63.6(h)(7)(iv)) If the owner/operator uses a COMS for compliance purposes it is responsible for 

demonstrating that it has complied with the CMS performance evaluation requirements, that the COMS has 

been properly maintained, operated, and data quality-assured and that the resulting data have not been 

altered in any way.

Use of COMS Data in Lieu of 40CFR60 Appendix A Method 9 Observations During a Pollutant 

Performance Test (40CFR63.6(h)(7)(ii) and 40CFR63.6(h)(7)(v)) Whenever an opacity emission test 

method has not been specified in an applicable subpart or the owner/operator is required to conduct 

40CFR60 Appendix A Method 9 observations for an affected source, it may submit, for compliance 

purposes, COMS data results produced during any required Pollutant Performance Test in lieu of Method 9 

data. If the owner/operator elects to submit COMS data for compliance with an opacity emission standard, 

it shall notify the Department in writing of that decision simultaneously with the notification of the date 

that a Pollutant Performance Test is scheduled to begin. Once the owner/operator has notified the 

Department to that effect, the COMS data results will be used to determine opacity compliance during 

subsequent Pollutant Performance Tests unless the owner/operator notifies the Department in writing to the 

contrary no later than with the notification of the date that a subsequent Pollutant Performance Test is 

scheduled to begin. Except as provided in this condition, the results of continuous monitoring by a COMS 

that indicate that the opacity at the time visual observations were made was not in excess of the emission 

standard are probative but not conclusive evidence of the actual opacity of an emission, provided that the 

owner/operator for an affected source proves that, at the time of the alleged violation, the instrument used 

was properly maintained, met 40CFR60 Appendix B Performance Specification 1 and that the resulting data

limit specified in condition 5.E.2(q) by conducting a performance test for the kiln using 40CFR60 

Appendix A Method 23. The owner/operator shall demonstrate initial compliance by conducting separate 

performance tests while the raw mill of the in-line kiln/raw mill is under normal operating conditions and 

while the raw mill of the in-line kiln/raw mill is not operating. Each performance test shall consist of 

three(3) separate runs and each run shall be conducted under the conditions that exist when the Rotary Kiln 

is operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to occur. The duration of each run 

shall be at least three(3) hours and the sample volume for each run shall be at least 2.5 dscm (90 dscf). The 

concentration shall be determined for each run and the arithmetic average of the concentrations measured 

for the three(3) runs shall be calculated and used to determine compliance. The temperature at the inlet to 

the Rotary Kiln shall be continuously recorded during the period of the Method 23 test and the continuous 

temperature records shall be included in the Final Pollutant Performance Test Report. One(1)-minute 

average temperatures shall be calculated for each minute of each run of the test. The run average 

temperature shall be calculated for each run, and the average of the run average temperatures shall be 

determined and included in the performance test report and will determine the applicable temperature limit 

for condition 6.B.10(a). Pollutant Performance Tests for Dioxin/Furan emissions shall be repeated every 30 

months from the date of the previous performance test. The owner/operator shall conduct each performance 

test as specified in this condition and according to conditions 6.B.6( a) through 6.B.6(v). A copy of the test 

results shall also be kept on-site and on-file for a calendar period of five(5) years from the date testing was

MODELING DESCRIPTION: As built modeling. Inorganic toxics modeled by doubling the PM10

emission rate to get a TSP rate and then using an analysis of the components to calculate a maximum 

emission rate for that toxic (based on it’s percentage content in TSP). Tables 1 through 3 list the results. 

No emission rates were listed in the modeling summary.
