1. Background: Eastman Chemical Resins is a chemical process plant. It had 75 units that

were initially

determined to be BART eligible. The company decided to retire four of those units (four tanks) in order to reduce potential emissions to below 250 tpy for all eligible pollutants. 2. Process Description: The Source ID numbers of the BART eligible units at this facility are listed on the attached table. 3. Regulatory Analysis: Eastman Chemical Resins has sources at this facility which were originally

constructed between 1962 and 1977. To address the BART requirements, the company elected to retire four tanks. Tanks 1 7, 18, 61 and 63 (corresponding to Sources S202, S202, S224 and S226) have been retired from service and the company has removed them from its Operating Permit Application. To memorialize the company’s decision to retire these tanks, the Allegheny

County Health Department issued an Order on April 24, 2008, stating that “Eastman shall immediately and permanently

render volatile organic storage tanks 17, 18, 61 & 63 unusable for the storage of VOCs.” (Even before this Order, the ACHD had conducted an inspection of the tanks in November, 2007, and found that one had large holes cut into it and the that the piping and instrumentation had been removed from the others, making it impossible for the tanks to be placed back into service without making major modifications.) As a result, total emissions do not exceed 250 tpy for any of the

### eligible pollutants. Thus the plant’s units are not subject to the Best Available Retrofit Technology

(BART) requirements that are a part of the Regional Haze rules specified in 40 CFR Part 51, Subpart P Protection of Visibility. Finally, were those units subject to the BART requirements, there currently is not adequate technology available to determine visibility impairment by

individual sources of VOCs. 4. BART Analysis: Not required.
