Recommendation The staff recommends to the Commissioner that the operation be approved. This recommendation is based on the following facts and conditions: Unless otherwise stated, information used in this review was derived from the application and additional information submitted by the applicant. A complete application for the purposes of this review was received on December 27, 1999. Emission Calculations (a) Chromium emissions (Single HAP) from the biggest source in Indiana is less than (10) tons per year and Franke Plating Works, Incorporated is a much smaller source in comparison. So no calculations were necessary for this source because the emissions from this source will be less than ten (10) tons per year. (b) See Appendix A of this document for detailed natural gas combustion emissions calculations (Appendix A, page 1 of 1.)
Potential To Emit Pursuant to 326 IAC 2-1.1-1(16), Potential to Emit is defined as “the maximum capacity of a stationary source or emissions unit to emit any air pollutant under its physical and operational design. Any physical or operational limitation on the capacity of a source to emit an air pollutant, including air pollution control equipment and restrictions on hours of operation or type or amount of material combusted, stored, or processed shall be treated as part of its design if the limitation is enforceable by the U. S. EPA, the department, or the appropriate local air pollution control agency.”Franke Plating Works, Incorporated

Pollutant Potential To Emit (tons/year) PM 0.07 PM-10 0.29 SO 2 0.02 VOC 0.21 CO 3.24 NO x 3.85

HAP’s Potential To Emit (tons/year) Nickel Compounds Less Than 10 Chromium Compounds Less Than 10 TOTAL Less Than 25 (a) The potential to emit (as defined in 326 IAC 2-7-1(29)) of any single HAP is less than ten (10) tons per year and the potential to emit (as defined in 326 IAC 2-7-1(29)) of a combination HAPs is less than twenty-five (25) tons per year. Therefore, the source is not subject to the provisions of 326 IAC 2-7. (b) This new source is subject to 326 IAC 20-8 but not subject to 326 IAC 2-5.5-1 (b)(2) (registration) because the source consists of only hard chromium (not decorative chromium) electroplating tanks and the source emits less than major source levels (see statement (a) above). Therefore, the source is subject to the provisions of 326 IAC 2-6.1- 3(a).
Actual Emissions No previous emission data has been received from the source. County Attainment Status The source is located in Allen County.

Pollutant Status PM-10 attainment SO 2 attainment NO 2 attainment Ozone attainment CO attainment Lead attainment (a) Volatile organic compounds (VOC) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) are precursors for the formation of ozone. Therefore, VOC emissions are considered when evaluating the rule applicability relating to the ozone standards. Allen County has been designated as attainment or unclassifiable for ozone. Therefore, VOC and NOx emissions were reviewed pursuant to the requirements for Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD), 326 IAC 2-2 and 40 CFR 52.21.

Part 70 Permit Determination 326 IAC 2-7 (Part 70 Permit Program) This existing source is not subject to the Part 70 Permit requirements because the potential to emit (PTE) of: (a) each criteria pollutant is less than 100 tons per year, (b) a single hazardous air pollutant (HAP) is less than 10 tons per year, and (c) any combination of HAPs is less than 25 tons/year. Although this source is subject to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs), 326 IAC 14, (40 CFR 63, Subpart N), no Title V permit is required pursuant to 40 CFR 63.340(e). This is the first air approval issued to this source. Federal Rule Applicability (a) There are no New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)(326 IAC 12 and 40 CFR Part 60) applicable to this source. (b) Tanks (HC1-800 and HC 2-800 and Decorative 500) are subject to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, 326 IAC 14, (40 CFR 63, Subpart N, and 326 IAC 20-1-1). Pursuant to 40 CFR 63, Subpart N, and 326 IAC 20-1-1, the chromium electroplating operations are subject to the following conditions: (1) The permittee shall comply with the requirements of this condition on and after the compliance date for the tanks. (2) The hard chromium electroplating tanks, identified as (HC1-800 and HC 2-800) above, are considered a small, existing hard chromium electroplating operation. During tank operation, the Permittee shall control chromium emissions discharged to the atmosphere from the hard chromium electroplating tanks by not allowing the concentration of total chromium in the exhaust gas stream discharged to the atmosphere to exceed three-hundredths milligrams of total chromium per drystandard cubic meter of ventilation air (0.03 mg/dscm) [equivalent to one and threetenths times ten raised to the power of negative five grains of total chromium per dry standard cubic foot of ventilation air (1.3x10 -5 gr/dscf)].Franke Plating Works, Incorporated

Fort Wayne, Indiana MSOP 003-11733-00309 Permit Reviewer: PR/EVP Page 5 of 7

(3) During tank operation, the Permittee shall control chromium emissions discharged to the atmosphere from tank (Decorative 500) by: (A) Not allowing the concentration of total chromium in the exhaust gas stream discharged to the atmosphere to exceed one-hundredth milligrams of total chromium per dry standard cubic meter of ventilation air (0.01 mg/dscm) [equivalent to four and four-tenths times ten raised to the power of negative six grains of total chromium per dry standard cubic foot of ventilation air (4.4x10 -6

gr/dscf)]; or (4) The surface tension of the chromium electroplating bath contained with the tank shall not exceed forty-five (45) dynes per centimeter at any time during the operation of the tank if a chemical fume suppressant containing a wetting agent is used to demonstrate compliance. Each time that surface tension monitoring exceeds forty-five (45) dynes per centimeter, the frequency of monitoring must revert back to every four (4) hours of tank operation. After forty (40) hours of monitoring tank operation every four (4) hours with no exceedances, surface tension measurement may be conducted once every eight (8) hours of tank operation. Once there have been no exceedances during forty (40) hours of tank operation, surface tension measurement may be conducted once every forty (40) hours of tank operation on an ongoing basis, until an exceedance occurs. An alternative emission limit of 0.01 milligram per day standard cubic meter (mg/dscm) will be applicable if the chromium electroplating bath does not meet the limit above. (5) A summary report shall be prepared to document the ongoing compliance status of the chromium electroplating operation. This report shall be completed annually, retained on site, and made available to IDEM upon request. If there are significant exceedance of chromium air emission limits (as defined in 40 CFR Part 63.347(h)(2)), then semiannual reports shall be submitted to: Indiana Department of Environmental Management Air Compliance Branch, Office of Air Management Chromium Electroplating 100 North Senate Avenue, P.O. Box 6015 Indianapolis, Indiana 46206 (6) The chromium electroplating operations shall be subject to the record keeping and reporting requirement as indicated in the chromium electroplating NESHAP. State Rule Applicability - Entire Source 326 IAC 2-6 (Emission Reporting) This source is located in Allen County and the potential to emit VOC and NOx is less than one hundred (100) tons per year. Therefore, 326 IAC 2-6 does not apply. The source will be required to annually submit a statement of the actual emissions of all federally regulated pollutants from the source, for the purpose of fee assessment. 326 IAC 5-1 (Opacity Limitations) Pursuant to 326 IAC 5-1-2 (Opacity Limitations), except as provided in 326 IAC 5-1-3 (TemporaryFranke Plating Works, Incorporated

Fort Wayne, Indiana MSOP 003-11733-00309 Permit Reviewer: PR/EVP Page 6 of 7

Exemptions), opacity shall meet the following, unless otherwise stated in this permit: (a) Opacity shall not exceed an average of forty percent (40%) any one (1) six (6) minute averaging period as determined in 326 IAC 5-1-4. (b) Opacity shall not exceed sixty percent (60%) for more than a cumulative total of fifteen (15) minutes (sixty (60) readings) as measured according to 40 CFR 60, Appendix A, Method 9 or fifteen (15) one (1) minute nonoverlapping integrated averages for a continuous opacity monitor) in a six (6) hour period. 326 IAC 6-2 (Particulate Emission Limitations for Sources of Indirect Heating) The two (2) natural gas fired boilers (ID Nos. 001 and 002), rated at 3.3 and 1.98 million British thermal units per hour, respectively, are subject to the particulate matter limitations of 326 IAC 6-2. Pursuant to this rule, boilers (ID Nos. 001 and 002) (both constructed in 1969) are limited by the following equation from 326 IAC 6-2-3:
Pt = C x a x h

76.5 x Q

0.75 x N 0.25
where C = 50 u/m 3 Pt = emission rate limit (lbs/MMBtu) Q = total source heat input capacity (MMBtu/hr) N = number of stacks a = plume rise factor (0.67) h = stack height in feet. If a number of stacks of different heights exist, average stack height to represent “N” stacks shall be calculated by weighing each stack height with its particulate matter emission rate as follows:
N h= 3 H i x pa i x Q i=1 N

3 pa i x Q i=1
where: Pa = the actual controlled emissions rate in lb/mmBtu using the emission factor form AP-42 or stack test data. Stacks constructed after January 1, 1971, shall be credited with GEP stack height only. GEP stack height shall be calculated as specified in 326 IAC 1-7. Pt = (50*0.67*25.57)/(76.5*5.28 0.75 *2 0.25 ) = 2.70 lbs PM/MMBtu However, per 326 IAC 6-2-3(d), Pt shall not exceed 0.8, therefore the two (2) boilers (ID Nos. 001 and 002) are limited to 0.8 lbs PM/MMBtu. compliance calculation : (0.04 tons PM/yr) * (hr/5.28 MMBtu) * (yr/8,760 hrs) * (2,000 lbs/ton) = 0.002 lbs PM/MMBtu Actual lbs PM/MMBtu (0.01) are less than allowable lbs PM/MMBtu (0.8), therefore the two (2) boilers (ID Nos. 001 and 002) will comply with the requirements of 326 IAC 6-2.Franke Plating Works, Incorporated
