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 40 CFR 60, 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

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;

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.

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

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 61-62.70.9.

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, 

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 
Holcim (US) Inc. – Holly Hill Plant

TV-1860-0005

Page 10 of 106

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

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.

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:
Holcim (US) Inc. – Holly Hill Plant

TV-1860-0005

Page 11 of 106

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

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.

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.
Holcim (US) Inc. – Holly Hill Plant

TV-1860-0005

Page 12 of 106

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

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).

O. SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATION PROCEDURES [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(4)]

Significant permit modification procedures shall be used for applications requesting permit 

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 enforcement 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:

with the permit or applicable requirements.

R. COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS [SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(c)(5)] (Revised 05/21/99)

Consistent with SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(3), this permit contains compliance certification, 

testing, monitoring, reporting, and record keeping requirements sufficient to assure compliance with 

the terms and conditions of this permit. Any document (including reports) shall contain a 

certification by a responsible official or designee that meets the requirements of SC Regulation 61-

62.70.5(d).

Atlanta, GA 30303 Columbia, SC 29201

S. SCHEDULE OF COMPLIANCE [SC Regulation 61-62.70.5(c)(8)] (Revised 5/21/99)

The permittee shall submit a compliance schedule that contains the following for all Part 70 sources 

that are not in compliance with all applicable rules:

1. A description of the source’s compliance status and where appropriate a compliance 

schedule with respect to all applicable requirements as follows:

(a) For applicable requirements with which the source is in compliance, a 

statement that during the permit term the source will continue to comply with 

such requirements.

(b) For applicable requirements that will become effective during the permit 

term, a statement that the source will meet such requirements on a timely

basis, unless a more detailed schedule is expressly required by the applicable 

requirement.

(c) A schedule of compliance for sources that are not in compliance with all 

applicable requirements at the time of permit issuance. This schedule shall 

include a narrative description of how the source will achieve compliance, a 

schedule of remedial measures, including an enforceable sequence of actions

Holcim (US) Inc. – Holly Hill Plant

TV-1860-0005

Page 15 of 106

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

subject. Any such schedule of compliance shall be supplemental to, and shall 

not sanction noncompliance with, the applicable requirements on which it is 

based.

2. A schedule for submission of certified progress reports no less frequently than every

six (6) months for sources required to have a schedule of compliance to remedy a

with acid rain emissions limitations.

T. NEED TO HALT OR REDUCE ACTIVITY NOT A DEFENSE

[SC Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(6)(ii)]

It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to 

halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this 

permit.

U. OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(5)]

In accordance with SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(5), a permitted facility is authorized to make

The maximum allowable emission limits above are derived from the various Federal and State 

regulations that govern the operation of this type of facility. All applicable facility wide emission 

limits and corresponding regulations are listed above. Additional operating requirements, which may

be more stringent than those above, are contained in Part 5.0, Part 6.0, and Part 7.0 of this permit.

Condition 

Number Condition

4.B.1

In accordance with SC Regulation 61-62.1, Section II, the permittee must comply with all applicable 

statutes and regulations of the United States and the State of South Carolina. This permit does not 

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

4.B.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 the 

maximum allowable ambient concentrations identified in the standard are exceeded.

4.B.3

The owner/operator shall maintain this facility in compliance with the pollutant limitations in Part 4, 

Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, Part 8, Part 9, Part 10 and/or the emission rates as listed in Attachment A of this 

Part 70 operating permit, whichever is more restrictive. This is a State Only enforceable requirement. 

Should the facility wish to increase the emission rates listed in Attachment A, it may do so by the 

administrative process specified in condition 4.B.2

4.B.4

A list of equipment which are considered insignificant pursuant to SC Regulation 61-62.70.5(c) has 

been submitted with your Title V application and reviewed by our staff. The list, including source 

descriptions and citation for exemption, is summarized in Attachment B of the permit. Attachment B 

excludes those activities identified in Part A of the insignificant activities list. Written notification to 

the Bureau of Air Quality is required for the addition of any new equipment which may meet the 

definition of insignificant or exempt as described above, excluding those sources listed in Part A of 

the insignificant activities list. (Revised 11/13/98)

4.B.5

In accordance with SC Regulation 61-62.1 Section II, (C)(3), for all sources not required to have 

continuous emissions monitors, in the event of any malfunction of air pollution control equipment or 

system, process upset or other equipment failure which results in discharges of air contaminants 

lasting for one hour or more and which are greater than those discharges described for normal 

operation in the permit application shall be reported to the local Environmental Quality Control 

(EQC) District office within twenty-four (24) hours after the beginning of the occurrence. The 

permittee shall also submit a written report within thirty (30) days of the occurrence. This report shall 

be submitted to the Manager of the Technical Management Section, Bureau of Air Quality (BAQ). 

The report shall contain as a minimum, the following: the identity of the emission unit and associated 

equipment where excess emissions occurred, the magnitude of excess emissions, the time and duration 

of excess emissions, the steps taken to remedy the malfunction and to prevent a recurrence, 

documentation that control equipment and processes were at all times maintained and operated, to the 

maximum extent practicable, in a manner that was consistent with good practice for minimizing 

emissions. Such a report shall in no way serve to excuse, otherwise justify, or in any manner affect 

any potential liability or enforcement action resulting from the occurrence. This defines the 

Department’s definition of prompt in its relation to the degree of reporting as specified by SC 

Regulation 61-62.70.6(a)(3)(iii)(b).

4.B.6

The owners or operators of Part 70 sources shall complete and submit emissions inventories as 

required consistent with the schedule approved pursuant to SC Regulation 61-62.1, Section III. This 

requirement notwithstanding, an emissions inventory may be required at any time in order to 

determine the compliance status of any facility.

4.B.7

The permittee shall comply with the standards for recycling and emissions reduction pursuant to 40 

CFR Part 82, Subpart F, Protection of Stratospheric Ozone, Recycling and Emissions Reduction, 

except as provided for motor vehicle air conditioners (MVACs) in Subpart B. If the permittee 

performs a service on motor (fleet) vehicles that involves ozone-depleting substance refrigerant in 

MVACs, the permittee is subject to all applicable requirements of 40 CFR Part 82, Subpart B, 

Servicing of MVACs.

4.B.8

The permittee shall comply with the standards of performance for asbestos abatement operations 

pursuant to 40 CFR Part 61.145 and SC Regulation 61-86.1, including, but not limited to, 

requirements governing training, licensing, notification, work practice, cleanup, and disposal.

(DRE) of 99.99% for each principal organic hazardous constituent (POHC) designated under 

the next two paragraphs of this permit condition. The Permittee must calculate DRE for each 

POHC from the following equation:

DRE = [1-(Wout / Win)] x 100%

Where:

Win = mass feedrate of one POHC in a waste feedstream; and 

Wout = mass emission rate of the same POHC present in exhaust emissions prior to release to 

the atmosphere.

The Permittee must treat the POHCs in the waste feed that the permittee specifies under the 

next paragraph of this permit condition to the extent required by the first paragraph of this 

permit condition. 

The Permittee must specify one or more POHCs from the list of hazardous air pollutants 

established by 42 U.S.C. 7412(b)(1), excluding caprolactam (CAS number 105602) as 

provided by 40CFR63.60, for each waste to be burned. The Permittee must base this 

specification on the degree of difficulty of incineration of the organic constituents in the 

waste and on their concentration or mass in the waste feed, considering the results of the 

waste analyses or other data and information.

Page 79 of 106

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

(xiii) The report date.

(2) If the total duration of excess emissions for the reporting period is less than 1 percent 

of total operating time for the period and CMS downtime for the reporting period is 

less than 5 percent of total operating time for the period, then only the summary

report will need to be submitted. The full excess emissions and performance testing 

report need not be submitted unless otherwise stated.

(3) If the total duration of excess emissions is greater than or equal to 1 percent of total 

operating time for the period and CMS downtime for the reporting period is greater 

than or equal to 5 percent of total operating time for the period, then the summary

report and full excess emissions and performance testing reports must be submitted.

(d) For all sources subject to 40CFR63 Subpart A, if actions taken by the Permittee during a 

startup, shutdown, or malfunction of an affected source (including actions taken to correct a 

malfunction) are consistent with the procedures specified in the source's startup, shutdown, 

and malfunction plan, then the Permittee shall state such information in a startup, shutdown, 

and malfunction report. Reports shall only be required if a startup, shutdown, or malfunction 

occurred during the reporting period. The report shall consist of a letter, containing the name, 

title, and signature of the responsible official who is certifying its accuracy, which shall be 

submitted to the Department semiannually. It shall be delivered or postmarked by the 30th 

day following the end of each calendar half (or other calendar reporting period, as 

appropriate). If the Permittee is required to submit excess emissions and continuous 

monitoring system performance (or other periodic) reports, then the startup, shutdown, and 

malfunction reports may be submitted simultaneously with the excess emissions and 

continuous monitoring system performance (or other) reports. If startup, shutdown, and 

malfunction reports are submitted with excess emissions and continuous monitoring system 

performance (or other periodic) reports and the Permittee receives approval to reduce the 

frequency of reporting for the latter as specified by 40CFR63.10(e), the frequency of 

reporting for the startup, shutdown, and malfunction reports also may be reduced if the 

Department does not object to the intended change. The procedures to implement the 

allowance in the preceding sentence shall be the same as the procedures specified in 

40CFR63.10(e)(3). A copy of the report shall also be kept on-site and on-file and made 

available to Department personnel upon request.

(e) Notwithstanding the allowance to reduce the frequency of reporting for periodic startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction reports as specified in condition 6.B.1(d), any time an action 

taken by the Permittee during a startup, shutdown, or malfunction (including actions taken to 

correct a malfunction) is not consistent with the procedures specified in the affected source's 

startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan, the Permittee shall report the actions taken for that 

event within 24-hours after commencing actions inconsistent with the plan followed by a

letter within seven (7) working days after the end of the event. The immediate report shall 

consist of a telephone call (or facsimile [FAX] transmission) to the appropriate Trident 
Holcim (US) Inc. – Holly Hill Plant

TV-1860-0005

Page 80 of 106

Nonmetallic Mineral Processing Plants), belt conveyors or other affected facilities as defined 

in 40 CFR § 60.670 except crushers shall not exhibit an opacity greater than 10% when 

conveying unsaturated materials. Source tests for opacity indicating compliance with permit 

standards are required prior to a permit to operate being issued. The owner/operator of these 

sources may use the alternative Method 9 testing to show compliance with the appropriate 

opacity standard. This Method 9 allows belt conveyor transfer points and screens without 

emission capture systems to reduce the duration of observations of fugitive emissions from 3 

hours (thirty 6-minute averages) to 1 hour (ten 6-minute averages) if there are no individual 

readings greater than 15 percent opacity for crushers or 10 percent opacity for other affected 

emission units and there are no more than 3 readings of 15 percent for crushers or 10 percent 

for other affected emission units for the first 1-hour period. If the alternative Method 9 

testing fails to prove compliance, the traditional Method 9 testing is required. These tests 

shall be performed within 60 days of achieving the maximum production rate, but no later 

than 180 days after the initial startup. Source test methodology must be approved by the 

BAQ. The Manager of Source Evaluation, BAQ shall be notified of the anticipated date of 

the required opacity testing, postmarked not less than 45 days prior to such date so that a 

Bureau representative may be present if desired. Rescheduled source tests require 7 days 

notification.

6.B.3 RAW MILL SYSTEM

(a) The owner or operator must conduct a monthly 1-minute visible emissions test of each

is operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to occur. The 

maximum six-minute average opacity exhibited during the test period shall be used to 

determine whether the affected source is in initial compliance with the standard. The 

duration of the Method 9 performance test shall be 3 hours (30 6-minute averages), except 

that the duration of the Method 9 performance test may be reduced to 1 hour if the following 

apply: 1. There are no individual readings greater than 10 percent opacity. 2. There are no 

more than three readings of 10 percent for the first 1-hour period.

(1) Comprehensive kiln particulate matter, opacity, DRE, Hg, semi-and low volatile 

metals, HCl and Cl gas, and maximum combustion chamber pressure performance 

tests required above shall be repeated every five years, except that the owner or 

operator of an in-line kiln/raw mill is not required to repeat the initial performance 

test of opacity for the in-line kiln/raw mill. Confirmatory D/F performance tests shall 

be repeated every 30 months (40CFR63.1207(b)(2)(i), 40CFR63.1207(d)).

(2) The owner or operator is required to repeat the performance tests for the in-line 

kiln/raw mills within 90 days of initiating any significant change in the feed or fuel 

from that used in the previous performance test. 

(3) A source test for VOC emissions from the kiln system will be required. The tests 

shall be performed within 60 days after achieving maximum production but not later 

than 180 days after initial start-up of burning HWDF. The Bureau must be notified at 

least two weeks prior to any source test so that a Bureau representative may be

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

present. This testing shall then hereafter be done with the comprehensive and 

confirmatory testing required by 40CFR63, Subpart EEE. The testing shall be done 

at least every 30 months. Source test methodology must be approved by the Bureau 

and comply with SC Regulation 62.1, Section IV, Source testing.

(4) Since the coal mill uses a part of the kiln exhaust stream, emissions from the coal 

mill must also be included in the above performance testing.

Performance test to demonstrate initial compliance shall be conducted as specified below and 

in compliance with all requirements of 40CFR63, Interim Subpart EEE:

Performance testing must be conducted when the raw mill is on-line and when the mill is offline to demonstrate compliance with the emission standards, and separate operating 

parameters shall be established as required by 40 CFR § 63.1209 for each mode of operation. 

Each time the mode of operation is changed to an alternative mode with different operating 

parameter limits the change must be documented. When the mode of operation changes, the 

permittee must establish rolling averages for the operating parameter limits based on one of 

the following methods: 1. Retrieval Approach, 2. Start Anew, or 3. Seamless Transition (40 

CFR § 63.1204(d)(1); 40 CFR § 63.1209(q)(1)).

Comprehensive performance testing must be done to demonstrate compliance with the 

emission limitations, establish limits for the operating parameters required by 40 CFR § 

63.1209, and to demonstrate compliance with the performance specifications for continuous 

monitoring systems. This testing will be done in compliance with 40 CFR § 63.1207. The 

initial comprehensive performance test must commence within 180 days of startup of 

HWDF. The comprehensive performance test must commence no later than 61 months after 

the date of commencing the previous comprehensive performance test. A notification of 

your intention to conduct a comprehensive performance test and CMS performance 

evaluation and a site-specific test plan and CMS performance evaluation plan must be 

submitted at least one year before the performance test and performance evaluation are 

scheduled to begin. The required content of the comprehensive performance test plan is 

listed in 40 CFR § 63.1207(f)(1).

(b) For sources subject to the Portland Cement MACT (40CFR63 Subpart LLL), the owner or 

operator shall demonstrate initial compliance and then every five years with the affected 

source opacity limit by conducting a test in accordance with Method 9. The performance test 

shall be conducted under the conditions that exist when the affected source is operating at the 

highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to occur. The maximum six-minute 

average opacity exhibited during the test period shall be used to determine whether the 

affected source is in initial compliance with the standard. The duration of the Method 9 

performance test shall be 3-hours (30 6-minute averages), except that the duration of the 

Method 9 performance test may be reduced to 1-hour if the following apply: 1. There are no 

individual readings greater than 10 percent opacity. 2. There are no more than three readings

of 10 percent for the first 1-hour period.

(c) Within 60 days after achieving the maximum production rate at which the affected facility

will be operated, but no later than 180 days after initial startup of burning HWDF a 

performance test shall be conducted for the coal mill system. The source test shall be 

conducted in compliance with both 40CFR60 and SC Regulation 62.1, Section IV - Source 

Tests.

(d) The facility shall submit a site-specific test plan in compliance with the appropriate federal 

regulations and also SC Regulations 61-62.1, Section IV – Source Tests. All performance 

testing shall be in compliance with this regulation. A copy of the comprehensive test plan 

shall be submitted to the Source Evaluation Section.

PART 7.0 ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS

A. SPECIFIC CONDITIONS

Operator Training and Certification

(EFFECTIVE September 30, 2003, 40CFR63.1206(c)(6)) Prior to start-up of burning HWDF, the 

Permittee shall establish training programs for all categories of personnel whose activities may

reasonably be expected to directly affect emissions of hazardous air pollutants from the source(s). 

Such persons include, but are not limited to, chief facility operators, control room operators, 

continuous monitoring system operators, persons that sample and analyze feedstreams, persons that 

manage and charge feedstreams to the combustor (kiln), persons that operate emission control 

devices, and ash and waste handlers. Each training program shall be of a technical level 

commensurate with the person's job duties specified in the training manual. Each commensurate 

training program shall require an examination to be administered by the instructor at the end of the 

training course. Passing of this test shall be deemed the “certification” for personnel. The Permittee 

shall ensure that a source is operated and maintained at all times by persons who are trained and 

certified to perform these and any other duties that may affect emissions of hazardous air pollutants. 

Since the Permittee operates hazardous waste burning cement kilns, the training and certification 

program may be reviewed by the Department and be complete, reliable and conform to principles of 

good operator and operating practices (including training and certification). The operator training 

and certification program shall be recorded in the facility operating record.

B. OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY [SC Regulation 61-62.70.7(e)(5)]

The permittee seeks operational flexibility to operate in one or more of the following scenarios:
Holcim (US) Inc. – Holly Hill Plant

TV-1860-0005

Page 106 of 106

(permit updated 6/27/05 and 8/19/05)

a. The permittee has developed a startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan (SSMP) pursuant to 

40 CFR 63, Subpart A. During periods of startup, shutdown, or malfunction, the permittee 

will follow the procedures set forth in the SSMP. No hazardous waste will be burned during 

periods of startup or shutdown.

b. The primary operating mode for control of VOC emissions from T-111 is treatment in the 

industrial furnace (K300A). During periods of startup, shutdown, or malfunction, VOC 

emissions from T-111 will be controlled by a carbon adsorption device (VRU112).

c. The primary operating mode for the industrial furnace (K300A) is burning hazardous waste 

for energy recovery pursuant to 40 CFR 63, Subpart EEE. During periods when the unit is 

not burning hazardous waste and the hazardous waste residence time has expired, limits 

imposed by Subpart EEE (THC limit on emissions in the bypass (K300B), kiln differential 

pressure, 40 CFR63 Subpart EEE metal limits, and the minimum combustion chamber 

temperature) will no longer be applicable or required.

d. The Permittee will develop a Transition Plan (Plan) and submit the Plan to the Department 

for review and comment prior to operation of the new kiln system. This Plan will address 

how the Holly Hill Plant plans to operate the facility during the time period when the 

portions of the existing plant equipment, including the two wet kilns, are being shut down; 

and the new portions of the plant, including the new preheater/precalciner kiln system, new 

coal mill, and new Finish Mills 5 and 6 are being brought online. 

C. COMPLIANCE SCHEDULE [SC Regulation 61-62.70.5(c)(8)]

Not applicable at this time.
