ABSTRACT 

Holcim Inc. operates the Devil’s Slide cement manufacturing plant near Morgan, Utah. This plant has 

been in operation since 1947, with recent major modifications made to most of the process during 1996 

and 1997. At the Devil’s Slide plant, cement is made when raw materials such as limestone & sandstone 

(quarried on-site), iron ore, and gypsum are proportioned, ground, and mixed and then fed into a rotating 

kiln. The intense heat of the kiln alters the materials and recombines them into small stones called 

cement clinker. The clinker is cooled and ground with gypsum into a fine powdered cement. The final 

product is stored on site for later packaging and shipping. The major sources of air emissions are the 

combustion of fuels for the kiln operation and from the kiln and clinker cooling process. The Devil’s 

Slide plant is a major source for emissions of PM10, SO2, NOx and HAPs. This source is subject to NSPS 

Subparts A, Y, OOO, and MACT Subpart LLL.

denial of a permit renewal application. (R307-415-6a(6)(a)) 

I.C.2 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. (R307-415-6a(6)(b)) 

I.C.3 The permittee shall furnish to the Executive Secretary, within a reasonable time, any information 

that the Executive Secretary may request in writing to determine whether cause exists for 

modifying, revoking and reissuing, or terminating this permit or to determine compliance with

Revised November 13, 2006 Page 11 Title V Operating Permit #2900001001 
II.B.1.c Condition: 

For all emission units subject to 40 CFR 63 Subpart LLL: 

(i) The permittee must implement a written startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan that 

describes, in detail, procedures for operating and maintaining the affected emission unit 

during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction, and a program of corrective action 

for malfunctioning process and air pollution control and monitoring equipment used to 

comply with the relevant standard. [40 CFR 63.6(e)(3)(i)] 

(ii) During periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction, the permittee must operate and 

maintain the affected emission unit (including associated air pollution control and 

monitoring equipment) in accordance with the procedures specified in the startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction plan developed under paragraph (i) of this condition. [40 CFR 

63.6(3)(3)(ii)] 

(iii) The permittee must maintain a current startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan and 

must make the plan available upon request for inspection and copying by the Executive 

Secretary. In addition, if the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan is subsequently 

revised as provided in paragraph (v) of this condition, the permittee must maintain each 

previous (i.e., superseded) version of the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan, and 

must make each such previous version available for inspection and copying by the 

Executive Secretary for a period of 5 years after revision of the plan. If at any time after 

adoption of a startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan the affected emission unit ceases 

operation or is otherwise no longer subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 63, the permittee 

must retain a copy of the most recent plan for 5 years from the date the affected emission 

unit ceases operation or is no longer subject to 40 CFR 63 and must make the plan 

available upon request for inspection and copying by the Executive Secretary. [40 CFR 

63.6(e)(3)(v)] 

(iv) To satisfy the requirements of this condition to develop a startup, shutdown, and 

malfunction plan, the permittee may use the affected emission unit's standard operating 

procedures (SOP) manual, or an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 

or other plan, provided the alternative plans meet all the requirements of this condition 

and are made available for inspection when requested by the Executive Secretary. [40 

CFR 63.6(e)(3)(vi)] 

(v) The permittee may periodically revise the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan as 

necessary to satisfy the requirements of 40 CFR 63 or to reflect changes in equipment or 

procedures at the affected emission unit. However, each such revision to a startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction plan must be reported in the semiannual report required by 

this permit. If the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan fails to address or inadequately 

addresses an event that meets the characteristics of a malfunction but was not included in 

the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan at the time the permittee developed the plan, 

the permittee must revise the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan within 45 days 

after the event to include detailed procedures for operating and maintaining the affected 

emission unit during similar malfunction events and a program of corrective action for 

similar malfunctions of process or air pollution control and monitoring equipment. In the 

event that the permittee makes any revision to the startup, shutdown, and malfunction 

plan which alters the scope of the activities at the affected emission unit which are 

deemed to be a startup, shutdown, or malfunction, or otherwise modifies the applicability 

Revised November 13, 2006 Page 12 Title V Operating Permit #2900001001 
of any emission limit, work practice requirement, or other requirement in a standard 

established under 40 CFR 63, the revised plan shall not take effect until after the 

permittee has provided a written notice describing the revision to the permitting 

authority. [40 CFR 63.6(e)(3)(viii)] 

(vi) Any revisions made to the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan in accordance 

with the procedures established by 40 CFR 63 shall not be deemed to constitute permit 

revisions under this permit. Moreover, none of the procedures specified by the startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction plan shall be deemed to fall within the permit shield provision 

in this permit. [40 CFR 63.6(e)(3)(ix)] [Authority granted under 40 CFR 63 Subpart A, 

LLL; condition originated in DAQE-AN0007019-06] 

II.B.1.c.1 Monitoring: 

Records required for this permit condition will serve as monitoring. 

II.B.1.c.2 Recordkeeping: 

The permittee shall maintain relevant records for the affected emission unit of— 

(i) The occurrence and duration of each startup, shutdown, or malfunction of 

operation (i.e., process equipment); [40 CFR 63.10(b)(2)(i)] 

(ii) The occurrence and duration of each malfunction of the required air pollution 

control and monitoring equipment; [40 CFR 63.10(b)(2)(ii)] 

(iii) All required maintenance performed on the air pollution control and 

monitoring equipment; [40 CFR 63.10(b)(2)(iii)] 

(iv) 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) 

when such actions are different from the procedures specified in the startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction plan; [40 CFR 63.10(b)(2)(iv)] 

(v) All information necessary to demonstrate conformance with the 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 such plan. These records may take the form of a "checklist," or other effective 

form of recordkeeping that confirms conformance with the startup, shutdown, 

and malfunction plan for that event. [40 CFR 63.6(e)(3)(iii) & 40 CFR 

63.10(b)(2)(v)] 

(vi) If an action taken by the permittee during a startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction (including an action taken to correct a malfunction) is not consistent 

with the procedures specified in the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan, and 

the affected emission unit exceeds any applicable emission limitation in the 

relevant emission standard, then the permittee must record the actions taken for 

that event. [40 CFR 63.6(e)(3)(iv)] 

Revised November 13, 2006 Page 13 Title V Operating Permit #2900001001

REVIEWER COMMENTS 

This operating permit incorporates all applicable requirements contained in the following 

documents: 

DAQE-AN0007019-06 dated August 30, 2006 

1. Comment on an item originating in Permit Application regarding permitted source 

(Source-wide) 

Denial of permit application shield requests: Shielding from the following regulatory 

citations was requested in the permittee's application, based on construction of the 

facilities being completed prior to the 1971 applicable dates: UACR R307-1-4.5.1 

(20% opacity limitation for fugitives); UACR R307-1-4.1 (20% opacity limitation for 

visible emissions); 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart F (Standards of performance for portland 

cement plant); 40 CFR sec. 60.11(a),(b),(c), and (e), (Determining compliance with 

opacity limitations); 40 CFR 60.11(d) (General operating practices); 40 CFR 60.12 

(Prohibition of concealing emissions). Since the application submittal date of October 

10, 1995, the permittee has modified the existing facilities and constructed new 

facilities, making the permit shield requests non-grantable. [Comment last updated on

2. Comment on an item originating in 40 CFR 63 Subpart LLL regarding permitted source 

(Source-wide) 

Exemption from NSPS: 40 CFR 63.1356 provides that "any affected source subject to 

the provisions of this subpart is exempt from otherwise applicable new source 

performance standard contained in subpart F or subpart OOO of part 60". All Subpart 

F affected facilities are covered by Subpart LLL, so no requirement from Subpart F is 

included in this permit. Requirements from Subpart OOO are included for those 

emission points that precede raw material storage. [Comment last updated on 

12/23/2003] 

3. Comment on an item originating in 40 CFR 63 Subpart LLL regarding In-Line Kiln/Raw 

Mill (Unit C-Kiln) 

Raw mill & raw material dryer opacity limits: This source uses kiln exhaust to dry raw 

material as it is ground in the raw mill. The raw mill baghouse vents to the same stack 

as the kiln, so only the kiln opacity requirement is included in this permit. To do 

otherwise would cause continual deviations due to the kiln exhaust. [Comment last 

updated on 12/24/2003] 

4. Comment on an item originating in 40 CFR 63 Subpart LLL regarding In-Line Kiln/Raw 

Mill (Unit C-Kiln) 

Kiln particulate matter emission limit vs PM10 limit: The kiln is subject to a limit of 

0.15 g/Mg (0.30 lb/ton) of dry feed. The MACT requires a PM CEMS, but defers it 

until later rulemaking. The current AO includes a PM10 limit of 14 lb/hr for the kiln, 

while clinker production is limited to 930,000 tons/yr. At full-time operation, which 

gives the lowest hourly production rate and thus highest PM10/production ratio, the 

Revised November 13, 2006 Page 41 Title V Operating Permit #2900001001 
existing PM10 limit equates to 0.132 lb/ton. If 51% or more of the particulate emissions 

are PM10, the existing limit is more stringent than the MACT. However, confirming 

information is not available at this time, so both limits are included. Further 

information may result in subsuming the MACT limit under the PM10 limit. [Comment 

last updated on 4/14/2004] 

5. Comment on an item originating in 40 CFR 63 Subpart LLL regarding In-Line Kiln/Raw 

Mill (Unit C-Kiln) 

Activated carbon injection not included: There is no information that activated carbon 

injection is used at this source, so none of the requirements from 63 Subpart LLL 

dealing with the issue are included unless left in for completeness of quotation of the 

MACT. [Comment last updated on 3/15/2004] 

6. Comment on an item originating in 40 CFR 63 Subpart LLL regarding In-Line Kiln/Raw 

Mill (Unit C-Kiln) 

Kiln performance testing: Due to the complications and equations involved in the 

testing for the kiln, this permit references the MACT language rather than 

incorporating it. [Comment last updated on 12/24/2003] 

7. Comment on an item originating in this permit regarding permitted source (Source-wide) 

Description of "opacity survey" for permittee: Several opacity limits are monitored 

using an opacity survey. For these, the person must read and understand the approach 

of Method 9 observations, though the person does not need to be certified. When 

required, the person moves to a position that would be allowed for a Method 9 

observation, and looks at the emission point to see if anything is visible, similar to a 

Method 22. If nothing is visible besides steam, this is noted in the records and the next 

point is checked. If visible emissions are seen, a formal observation is required as 

described in the permit condition. [Comment last updated on 3/15/2004] 

8. Comment on an item originating in 40 CFR 63 Subpart A, LLL regarding permitted source 

(Source-wide) 

Startup, Shutdown and Malfunction Plan (SSMP), Permit Condition II.B.1.c: 

Location of copies of the SSMP 

All of Holcim’s affected emission units subject to Subpart LLL are controlled from a 

central control room except for cement loadout, which is locally controlled due to the 

need for weigh scales. Maintaining one copy of the SSMP in the central control room 

and additional copies, as needed, for each locally controlled affected emission unit, is 

considered reasonable. [Comment last updated on 8/22/2005]
