3. Facility description

The REG Albert Lea LLC (Facility) is located at 15200 780th Ave in Albert Lea, MN, Freeborn County, Minnesota. REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces biodiesel from soybean oil and methanol, and lower quality feedstocks such as used cooking oil, inedible corn oil, and lower quality animal fats. Currently, the facility is restricted by a production permit limit of 38,000,000 gallons of biodiesel per year. The facility is a true minor source under the federal Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) program. The facility is a synthetic minor source under the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and Part 70 programs for methanol (a federally-designated Hazardous Air Pollutant, HAP) and total HAPs. The main sources of methanol emissions are equipment leaks and from the distillation process. A flare (TREA 2) controls VOC and HAP emissions from the process equipment and four storage tanks. In the minor amendment, REG is proposing the installation of a natural gas boiler with a maximum design capacity of 33.5 mmBtu/hr. REG currently receives plant process steam from the neighboring POET bio-refining Glenville East (POET) ethanol plant. This boiler will provide process steam during periods that steam cannot be obtained from POET. In the major amendment, REG is proposing to increase its maximum production rate from the currently permitted 38 million gallons per year to 44 million gallons per year. No physical changes to the facility are required to accomplish this production increase.

The instrument shall be calibrated before use each day of its use by the procedures specified in Method 21 of 40 CFR pt. 60, appendix A-7. The following calibration gases shall be used: (i) Zero air (less than 10 ppm of hydrocarbon in air); and (ii) A mixture of methane or n-hexane and air at a concentration no more than 2,000 ppm greater than the leak definition concentration of the equipment monitored. If the monitoring instrument's design allows for multiple calibration scales, then the lower scale shall be calibrated with a calibration gas that is no higher than 2,000 ppm above the concentration specified as a leak, and the highest scale shall be calibrated with a calibration gas that is approximately equal to 10,000 ppm. If only one scale on an instrument will be used during monitoring, the Permittee need not calibrate the scales that will not be used during that day's monitoring. (2) A calibration drift assessment shall be performed, at a minimum, at the end of each monitoring day. Check the instrument using the same calibration gas(as) that were used to calibrate the instrument before use. Follow the procedures specified in Method 21 of 40 CFR pt. 60, appendix A-7, Section 10.1, except do not adjust the meter readout to correspond to the calibration gas value.

(e)(1) Notwithstanding the frequency of reporting requirements specified in paragraph (c) of this section, an owner or operator who is required by an applicable subpart to submit excess emissions and monitoring systems performance reports (and summary reports) on a quarterly (or more frequent) basis may reduce the frequency of reporting for that standard to semiannual if the following conditions are met:

(i) For 1 full year (e.g., 4 quarterly or 12 monthly reporting periods) the affected facility's excess emissions and monitoring systems reports submitted to comply with a standard under this part continually demonstrate that the facility is in compliance with the applicable standard;

(ii) The owner or operator continues to comply with all recordkeeping and monitoring requirements specified in this subpart and the applicable standard; and

(iii) The Administrator does not object to a reduced frequency of reporting for the affected facility, as provided in paragraph (e)(2) of this section.

(2) The frequency of reporting of excess emissions and monitoring systems performance (and summary) reports may be reduced only after the owner or operator notifies the Administrator in writing of his or her intention to make such a change and the Administrator does not object to the intended change. In deciding whether to approve a reduced frequency of reporting, the Administrator may review information concerning the source's entire previous performance history during the required recordkeeping period prior to the intended change, including performance test results, monitoring data, and evaluations of an owner or operator's conformance with operation and maintenance requirements. Such information may be used by the Administrator to make a judgment about the source's potential for noncompliance in the future. If the Administrator disapproves the owner or operator's request to reduce the frequency of reporting, the Administrator will notify the owner or operator in writing within 45 days after receiving notice of the owner or operator's intention. The notification from the Administrator to the owner or operator will specify the grounds on which the disapproval is based. In the absence of a notice of disapproval within 45 days, approval is automatically granted.

(3) As soon as monitoring data indicate that the affected facility is not in compliance with any emission limitation or operating parameter specified in the applicable standard, the frequency of reporting shall revert to

Page 133: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

the frequency specified in the applicable standard, and the owner or operator shall submit an excess emissions and monitoring systems performance report (and summary report, if required) at the next appropriate reporting period following the noncomplying event. After demonstrating compliance with the applicable standard for another full year, the owner or operator may again request approval from the Administrator to reduce the frequency of reporting for that standard as provided for in paragraphs (e)(1) and (e)(2) of this section.

(f) Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of all measurements, including continuous monitoring system, monitoring device, and performance testing measurements; all continuous monitoring system performance evaluations; all continuous monitoring system or monitoring device calibration checks; adjustments and maintenance performed on these systems or devices; and all other information required by this part recorded in a permanent form suitable for inspection. The file shall be retained for at least two years following the date of such measurements, maintenance, reports, and records, except as follows:

(1) This paragraph applies to owners or operators required to install a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) where the CEMS installed is automated, and where the calculated data averages do not exclude periods of CEMS breakdown or malfunction. An automated CEMS records and reduces the measured data to the form of the pollutant emission standard through the use of a computerized data acquisition system. In lieu of maintaining a file of all CEMS subhourly measurements as required under paragraph (f) of this section, the owner or 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.

(2) This paragraph applies to owners or operators required to install a CEMS where the measured data is manually reduced to obtain the reportable form of the standard, and where the calculated data averages do not exclude periods of CEMS breakdown or malfunction. In lieu of maintaining a file of all CEMS subhourly measurements as required under paragraph (f) of this section, the owner or operator shall retain all subhourly measurements for the most recent reporting period. The subhourly measurements shall be retained for 120 days from the date of the most recent summary or excess emission report submitted to the Administrator.

(3) The Administrator or delegated authority, upon notification to the source, may require the owner or operator to maintain all measurements as required by paragraph (f) of this section, if the Administrator or the delegated authority determines these records are required to more accurately assess the compliance status of the affected source.

(g) If notification substantially similar to that in paragraph (a) of this section is required by any other State or local agency, sending the Administrator a copy of that notification will satisfy the requirements of paragraph (a) of this section.

(h) Individual subparts of this part may include specific provisions which clarify or make inapplicable the provisions set forth in this section.

§60.8 Performance tests. (a) Except as specified in paragraphs (a)(1),(a)(2), (a)(3), and (a)(4) of this section, within 60 days after achieving the maximum production rate at which the affected facility will be operated, but not later than 180 days after initial startup of such facility, or at such other times specified by this part, and at such other times as may be required by the Administrator under section 114 of the Act, the owner or operator of such facility shall conduct performance test(s) and furnish the Administrator a written report of the results of such performance test(s).

(1) If a force majeure is about to occur, occurs, or has occurred for which the affected owner or operator intends to assert a claim of force majeure, the owner or operator shall notify the Administrator, in writing as soon as practicable following the date the owner or operator first knew, or through due diligence should have known that the event may cause or caused a delay in testing beyond the regulatory deadline, but the notification must occur before the performance test deadline unless the initial force majeure or a subsequent force majeure event delays the notice, and in such cases, the notification shall occur as soon as practicable.

(2) The owner or operator shall provide to the Administrator a written description of the force majeure event and a rationale for attributing the delay in testing beyond the regulatory deadline to the force majeure; describe the measures taken or to be taken to minimize the delay; and identify a date by which the owner or operator proposes to conduct the performance test. The performance test shall be conducted as soon as practicable after the force majeure occurs.

(3) The decision as to whether or not to grant an extension to the performance test deadline is solely within the discretion of the Administrator. The Administrator will notify the owner or operator in writing of approval or disapproval of the request for an extension as soon as practicable.

(4) Until an extension of the performance test deadline has been approved by the Administrator under paragraphs (a)(1), (2), and (3) of this section, the owner or operator of the affected facility remains strictly subject to the requirements of this part.

(b) Performance tests shall be conducted and data reduced in accordance with the test methods and procedures contained in each applicable subpart unless the Administrator (1) specifies or approves, in specific cases, the use of a reference method with minor changes in methodology, (2) approves the use of an equivalent method, (3) approves the use of an alternative method the results of which he has determined to be adequate for indicating whether a specific source is in compliance, (4) waives the requirement for performance tests because the owner or operator of a source has demonstrated by other means to the Administrator's satisfaction that the affected facility is in compliance with the standard, or (5) approves shorter sampling times and smaller sample volumes when necessitated by process variables or other factors. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to abrogate the Administrator's authority to require testing under section 114 of the Act.

(c) Performance tests shall be conducted under such conditions as the Administrator shall specify to the plant operator based on representative performance of the affected facility. The owner or operator shall make available to the Administrator such records as may be necessary to determine the conditions of the performance tests. Operations during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction shall not constitute representative conditions for the purpose of a performance test nor shall emissions in excess of the level of the applicable

emission limit during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction be considered a violation of the applicable emission limit unless otherwise specified in the applicable standard.

(d) The owner or operator of an affected facility shall provide the Administrator at least 30 days prior notice of any performance test, except as specified under other subparts, to afford the Administrator the opportunity to have an observer present. If after 30 days notice for an initially scheduled performance test, there is a delay (due to operational problems, etc.) in conducting the scheduled performance test, the owner or operator of an affected facility shall notify the Administrator (or delegated State or local agency) as soon as possible of any delay in the original test date, either by providing at least 7 days prior notice of the rescheduled date of the performance test, or by arranging a rescheduled date with the Administrator (or delegated State or local agency) by mutual agreement.

(e) The owner or operator of an affected facility shall provide, or cause to be provided, performance testing facilities as follows:

(1) Sampling ports adequate for test methods applicable to such facility. This includes (i) constructing the air pollution control system such that volumetric flow rates and pollutant emission rates can be accurately determined by applicable test methods and procedures and (ii) providing a stack or duct free of cyclonic flow during performance tests, as demonstrated by applicable test methods and procedures.

(2) Safe sampling platform(s).

(3) Safe access to sampling platform(s).

(4) Utilities for sampling and testing equipment.

(f) Unless otherwise specified in the applicable subpart, each performance test shall consist of three separate runs using the applicable test method.

(1) Each run shall be conducted for the time and under the conditions specified in the applicable standard. For the purpose of determining compliance with an applicable standard, the arithmetic means of results of the three runs shall apply. In the event that a sample is accidentally lost or conditions occur in which one of the three runs must be discontinued because of forced shutdown, failure of an irreplaceable portion of the sample train, extreme meteorological conditions, or other circumstances, beyond the owner or operator's control, compliance may, upon the Administrator's approval, be determined using the arithmetic mean of the results of the two other runs.

(2) Contents of report (electronic or paper submitted copy). Unless otherwise specified in a relevant standard or test method, or as otherwise approved by the Administrator in writing, the report for a performance test shall include the elements identified in paragraphs (f)(2)(i) through (vi) of this section.

(i) General identification information for the facility including a mailing address, the physical address, the owner or operator or responsible official (where applicable) and his/her email address, and the appropriate Federal Registry System (FRS) number for the facility.

(ii) Purpose of the test including the applicable regulation(s) requiring the test, the pollutant(s) and other parameters being measured, the applicable emission standard and any process parameter component, and a brief process description.

(iii) Description of the emission unit tested including fuel burned, control devices, and vent characteristics; the appropriate source classification code (SCC); the permitted maximum process rate (where applicable); and the sampling location.

(iv) Description of sampling and analysis procedures used and any modifications to standard procedures, quality assurance procedures and results, record of process operating conditions that demonstrate the applicable test conditions are met, and values for any operating parameters for which limits were being set during the test.

(v) Where a test method requires you record or report, the following shall be included: Record of preparation of standards, record of calibrations, raw data sheets for field sampling, raw data sheets for field and laboratory analyses, chain-of-custody documentation, and example calculations for reported results.

(vi) Identification of the company conducting the performance test including the primary office address, telephone number, and the contact for this test program including his/her email address.

(g) The performance testing shall include a test method performance audit (PA) during the performance test. The PAs consist of blind audit samples supplied by an accredited audit sample provider and analyzed during the performance test in order to provide a measure of test data bias. Gaseous audit samples are designed to audit the performance of the sampling system as well as the analytical system and must be collected by the sampling system during the compliance test just as the compliance samples are collected. If a liquid or solid audit sample is designed to audit the sampling system, it must also be collected by the sampling system during the compliance test. If multiple sampling systems or sampling trains are used during the compliance test for any of the test methods, the tester is only required to use one of the sampling systems per method to collect the audit sample. The audit sample must be analyzed by the same analyst using the same analytical reagents and analytical system and at the same time as the compliance samples. Retests are required when there is a failure to produce acceptable results for an audit sample. However, if the audit results do not affect the compliance or noncompliance status of the affected facility, the compliance authority may waive the reanalysis requirement, further audits, or retests and accept the results of the compliance test. Acceptance of the test results shall constitute a waiver of the reanalysis requirement, further audits, or retests. The compliance authority may also use the audit sample failure and the compliance test results as evidence to determine the compliance or noncompliance status of the affected facility. A blind audit sample is a sample whose value is known only to the sample provider and is not revealed to the tested facility until after they report the measured value of the audit sample. For pollutants that exist in the gas phase at ambient temperature, the audit sample shall consist of an appropriate concentration of the pollutant in air or nitrogen that can be introduced into the sampling system of the test method at or near the same entry point as a sample from the emission source. If no gas phase audit samples are available, an acceptable alternative is a sample of the pollutant in the same matrix that would be produced when the sample is recovered from the sampling system as required by the test method. For samples that exist only in a liquid or solid form at ambient temperature, the audit sample shall consist of an appropriate concentration of the pollutant in the same matrix that would be produced when the sample is recovered from the sampling system as required by the test method. An accredited audit sample provider (AASP) is an organization that has been accredited to prepare audit samples by an independent, third party accrediting body.

(1) The source owner, operator, or representative of the tested facility shall obtain an audit sample, if commercially available, from an AASP for each test method used for regulatory compliance purposes. No audit samples are required for the following test methods: Methods 3A and 3C of appendix A-3 of part 60, Methods 6C, 7E, 9, and 10 of appendix A-4 of part 60, Methods 18 and 19 of appendix A-6 of part 60, Methods 20, 22, and 25A of appendix A-7 of part 60, Methods 30A and 30B of appendix A-8 of part 60, and Methods 303, 318, 320, and 321 of appendix A of part 63 of this chapter. If multiple sources at a single facility are tested during a compliance test event, only one audit sample is required for each method used during a compliance test. The compliance authority responsible for the compliance test may waive the requirement to include an audit sample if they believe that an audit sample is not necessary. “Commercially available” means that two or more independent AASPs have blind audit samples available for purchase. If the source owner, operator, or representative cannot find an audit sample for a specific method, the owner, operator, or representative shall consult the EPA Web site at the following URL, www.epa.gov/ttn/emc, to confirm whether there is a source that can supply an audit sample for that method. If the EPA Web site does not list an available audit sample at least 60 days prior to the beginning of the compliance test, the source owner, operator, or representative shall not be required to include an audit sample as part of the quality assurance program for the compliance test. When ordering an audit sample, the source owner, operator, or representative shall give the sample provider an estimate for the concentration of each pollutant that is emitted by the source or the estimated concentration of each pollutant based on the permitted level and the name, address, and phone number of the compliance authority. The source owner, operator, or representative shall report the results for the audit sample along with a summary of the emission test results for the audited pollutant to the compliance authority and shall report the results of the audit sample to the AASP. The source owner, operator, or representative shall make both reports at the same time and in the same manner or shall report to the compliance authority first and then report to the AASP. If the method being audited is a method that allows the samples to be analyzed in the field and the tester plans to analyze the samples in the field, the tester may analyze the audit samples prior to collecting the emission samples provided a representative of the compliance authority is present at the testing site. The tester may request and the compliance authority may grant a waiver to the requirement that a representative of the compliance authority must be present at the testing site during the field analysis of an audit sample. The source owner, operator, or representative may report the results of the audit sample to the compliance authority and report the results of the audit sample to the AASP prior to collecting any emission samples. The test protocol and final test report shall document whether an audit sample was ordered and utilized and the pass/fail results as applicable.

(2) An AASP shall have and shall prepare, analyze, and report the true value of audit samples in accordance with a written technical criteria document that describes how audit samples will be prepared and distributed in a manner that will ensure the integrity of the audit sample program. An acceptable technical criteria document shall contain standard operating procedures for all of the following operations:

(i) Preparing the sample;

(ii) Confirming the true concentration of the sample;

(iii) Defining the acceptance limits for the results from a well qualified tester. This procedure must use well established statistical methods to analyze historical results from well qualified testers. The acceptance limits shall be set so that there is 95 percent confidence that 90 percent of well qualified labs will produce future results that are within the acceptance limit range.

§60.9 Availability of information. The availability to the public of information provided to, or otherwise obtained by, the Administrator under this part shall be governed by part 2 of this chapter. (Information submitted voluntarily to the Administrator for the purposes of §§60.5 and 60.6 is governed by §§2.201 through 2.213 of this chapter and not by §2.301 of this chapter.)

§60.10 State authority. The provisions of this part shall not be construed in any manner to preclude any State or political subdivision thereof from:

(a) Adopting and enforcing any emission standard or limitation applicable to an affected facility, provided that such emission standard or limitation is not less stringent than the standard applicable to such facility.

(b) Requiring the owner or operator of an affected facility to obtain permits, licenses, or approvals prior to initiating construction, modification, or operation of such facility.

§60.11 Compliance with standards and maintenance requirements. (a) Compliance with standards in this part, other than opacity standards, shall be determined in accordance with performance tests established by §60.8, unless otherwise specified in the applicable standard.

Permit Issued: February 26, 2018 04700061-101 Permit Expires: Non-expiring Page 140 of 181

(b) Compliance with opacity standards in this part shall be determined by conducting observations in accordance with Method 9 in appendix A of this part, any alternative method that is approved by the Administrator, or as provided in paragraph (e)(5) of this section. For purposes of determining initial compliance, the minimum total time of observations shall be 3 hours (30 6-minute averages) for the performance test or other set of observations (meaning those fugitive-type emission sources subject only to an opacity standard).

(c) The opacity standards set forth in this part shall apply at all times except during periods of startup, shutdown, malfunction, and as otherwise provided in the applicable standard.

(d) At all times, including periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction, owners and operators shall, to the extent practicable, maintain and operate any affected facility including associated air pollution control equipment in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practice for minimizing emissions. Determination of whether acceptable operating and maintenance procedures are being used will be based on information available to the Administrator which may include, but is not limited to, monitoring results, opacity observations, review of operating and maintenance procedures, and inspection of the source.

(e)(1) For the purpose of demonstrating initial compliance, opacity observations shall be conducted concurrently with the initial performance test required in §60.8 unless one of the following conditions apply. If no performance test under §60.8 is required, then opacity observations shall be conducted 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 the facility. If visibility or other conditions prevent the opacity observations from being conducted concurrently with the initial performance test required under §60.8, the source owner or operator shall reschedule the opacity observations as soon after the initial performance test as possible, but not later than 30 days thereafter, and shall advise the Administrator of the rescheduled date. In these cases, the 30-day prior notification to the Administrator required in §60.7(a)(6) shall be waived. The rescheduled opacity observations shall be conducted (to the extent possible) under the same operating conditions that existed during the initial performance test conducted under §60.8. The visible emissions observer shall determine whether visibility or other conditions prevent the opacity observations from being made concurrently with the initial performance test in accordance with procedures contained in Method 9 of appendix B of this part. Opacity readings of portions of plumes which contain condensed, uncombined water vapor shall not be used for purposes of determing compliance with opacity standards. The owner or operator of an affected facility shall make available, upon request by the Administrator, such records as may be necessary to determine the conditions under which the visual observations were made and shall provide evidence indicating proof of current visible observer emission certification. Except as provided in paragraph (e)(5) of this section, the results of continuous monitoring by transmissometer which indicate that the opacity at the time visual observations were made was not in excess of the standard are probative but not conclusive evidence of the actual opacity of an emission, provided that the source shall meet the burden of proving that the instrument used meets (at the time of the alleged violation) Performance Specification 1 in appendix B of this part, has been properly maintained and (at the time of the alleged violation) that the resulting data have not been altered in any way.

(2) Except as provided in paragraph (e)(3) of this section, the owner or operator of an affected facility to which an opacity standard in this part applies shall conduct opacity observations in accordance with paragraph (b) of this section, shall record the opacity of emissions, and shall report to the Administrator the opacity results along with the results of the initial performance test required under §60.8. The inability of an owner or operator to

Permit Issued: February 26, 2018 04700061-101 Permit Expires: Non-expiring Page 141 of 181

secure a visible emissions observer shall not be considered a reason for not conducting the opacity observations concurrent with the initial performance test.

(3) The owner or operator of an affected facility to which an opacity standard in this part applies may request the Administrator to determine and to record the opacity of emissions from the affected facility during the initial performance test and at such times as may be required. The owner or operator of the affected facility shall report the opacity results. Any request to the Administrator to determine and to record the opacity of emissions from an affected facility shall be included in the notification required in §60.7(a)(6). If, for some reason, the Administrator cannot determine and record the opacity of emissions from the affected facility during the performance test, then the provisions of paragraph (e)(1) of this section shall apply.

(4) An owner or operator of an affected facility using a continuous opacity monitor (transmissometer) shall record the monitoring data produced during the initial performance test required by §60.8 and shall furnish the Administrator a written report of the monitoring results along with Method 9 and §60.8 performance test results.

(5) An owner or operator of an affected facility subject to an opacity standard may submit, for compliance purposes, continuous opacity monitoring system (COMS) data results produced during any performance test required under §60.8 in lieu of Method 9 observation data. If an owner or operator elects to submit COMS data for compliance with the opacity standard, he shall notify the Administrator of that decision, in writing, at least 30 days before any performance test required under §60.8 is conducted. Once the owner or operator of an affected facility has notified the Administrator to that effect, the COMS data results will be used to determine opacity compliance during subsequent tests required under §60.8 until the owner or operator notifies the Administrator, in writing, to the contrary. For the purpose of determining compliance with the opacity standard during a performance test required under §60.8 using COMS data, the minimum total time of COMS data collection shall be averages of all 6-minute continuous periods within the duration of the mass emission performance test. Results of the COMS opacity determinations shall be submitted along with the results of the performance test required under §60.8. The owner or operator of an affected facility using a COMS for compliance purposes is responsible for demonstrating that the COMS meets the requirements specified in §60.13(c) of this part, that the COMS has been properly maintained and operated, and that the resulting data have not been altered in any way. If COMS data results are submitted for compliance with the opacity standard for a period of time during which Method 9 data indicates noncompliance, the Method 9 data will be used to determine compliance with the opacity standard.

(6) Upon receipt from an owner or operator of the written reports of the results of the performance tests required by §60.8, the opacity observation results and observer certification required by §60.11(e)(1), and the COMS results, if applicable, the Administrator will make a finding concerning compliance with opacity and other applicable standards. If COMS data results are used to comply with an opacity standard, only those results are required to be submitted along with the performance test results required by §60.8. If the Administrator finds that an affected facility is in compliance with all applicable standards for which performance tests are conducted in accordance with §60.8 of this part but during the time such performance tests are being conducted fails to meet any applicable opacity standard, he shall notify the owner or operator and advise him that he may petition the Administrator within 10 days of receipt of notification to make appropriate adjustment to the opacity standard for the affected facility.

(7) The Administrator will grant such a petition upon a demonstration by the owner or operator that the affected facility and associated air pollution control equipment was operated and maintained in a manner to minimize the

opacity of emissions during the performance tests; that the performance tests were performed under the conditions established by the Administrator; and that the affected facility and associated air pollution control equipment were incapable of being adjusted or operated to meet the applicable opacity standard.

(8) The Administrator will establish an opacity standard for the affected facility meeting the above requirements at a level at which the source will be able, as indicated by the performance and opacity tests, to meet the opacity standard at all times during which the source is meeting the mass or concentration emission standard. The Administrator will promulgate the new opacity standard in the FEDERAL REGISTER.

(f) Special provisions set forth under an applicable subpart shall supersede any conflicting provisions in paragraphs (a) through (e) of this section.

(g) For the purpose of submitting compliance certifications or establishing whether or not a person has violated or is in violation of any standard in this part, nothing in this part shall preclude the use, including the exclusive use, of any credible evidence or information, relevant to whether a source would have been in compliance with applicable requirements if the appropriate performance or compliance test or procedure had been performed.

§60.12 Circumvention. No owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall build, erect, install, or use any article, machine, equipment or process, the use of which conceals an emission which would otherwise constitute a violation of an applicable standard. Such concealment includes, but is not limited to, the use of gaseous diluents to achieve compliance with an opacity standard or with a standard which is based on the concentration of a pollutant in the gases discharged to the atmosphere.

§60.13 Monitoring requirements. (a) For the purposes of this section, all continuous monitoring systems required under applicable subparts shall be subject to the provisions of this section upon promulgation of performance specifications for continuous monitoring systems under appendix B to this part and, if the continuous monitoring system is used to demonstrate compliance with emission limits on a continuous basis, appendix F to this part, unless otherwise specified in an applicable subpart or by the Administrator. Appendix F is applicable December 4, 1987.

(b) All continuous monitoring systems and monitoring devices shall be installed and operational prior to conducting performance tests under §60.8. Verification of operational status shall, as a minimum, include completion of the manufacturer's written requirements or recommendations for installation, operation, and calibration of the device.

(c) If the owner or operator of an affected facility elects to submit continous opacity monitoring system (COMS) data for compliance with the opacity standard as provided under §60.11(e)(5), he shall conduct a performance evaluation of the COMS as specified in Performance Specification 1, appendix B, of this part before the performance test required under §60.8 is conducted. Otherwise, the owner or operator of an affected facility shall conduct a performance evaluation of the COMS or continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) during any performance test required under §60.8 or within 30 days thereafter in accordance with the applicable performance specification in appendix B of this part, The owner or operator of an affected facility shall conduct COMS or CEMS performance evaluations at such other times as may be required by the Administrator under section 114 of the Act.

(1) The owner or operator of an affected facility using a COMS to determine opacity compliance during any performance test required under §60.8 and as described in §60.11(e)(5) shall furnish the Administrator two or, upon request, more copies of a written report of the results of the COMS performance evaluation described in paragraph (c) of this section at least 10 days before the performance test required under §60.8 is conducted.

(2) Except as provided in paragraph (c)(1) of this section, the owner or operator of an affected facility shall furnish the Administrator within 60 days of completion two or, upon request, more copies of a written report of the results of the performance evaluation.

(d)(1) Owners and operators of a CEMS installed in accordance with the provisions of this part, must check the zero (or low level value between 0 and 20 percent of span value) and span (50 to 100 percent of span value) calibration drifts at least once each operating day in accordance with a written procedure. The zero and span must, at a minimum, be adjusted whenever either the 24-hour zero drift or the 24-hour span drift exceeds two times the limit of the applicable performance specification in appendix B of this part. The system must allow the amount of the excess zero and span drift to be recorded and quantified whenever specified. Owners and operators of a COMS installed in accordance with the provisions of this part must check the zero and upscale (span) calibration drifts at least once daily. For a particular COMS, the acceptable range of zero and upscale calibration materials is defined in the applicable version of PS-1 in appendix B of this part. For a COMS, the optical surfaces, exposed to the effluent gases, must be cleaned before performing the zero and upscale drift adjustments, except for systems using automatic zero adjustments. The optical surfaces must be cleaned when the cumulative automatic zero compensation exceeds 4 percent opacity.

(2) Unless otherwise approved by the Administrator, the following procedures must be followed for a COMS. Minimum procedures must include an automated method for producing a simulated zero opacity condition and an upscale opacity condition using a certified neutral density filter or other related technique to produce a known obstruction of the light beam. Such procedures must provide a system check of all active analyzer internal optics with power or curvature, all active electronic circuitry including the light source and photodetector assembly, and electronic or electro-mechanical systems and hardware and or software used during normal measurement operation.

(e) Except for system breakdowns, repairs, calibration checks, and zero and span adjustments required under paragraph (d) of this section, all continuous monitoring systems shall be in continuous operation and shall meet minimum frequency of operation requirements as follows:

Permit Issued: February 26, 2018 04700061-101 Permit Expires: Non-expiring Page 144 of 181

(1) All continuous monitoring systems referenced by paragraph (c) of this section for measuring opacity of emissions shall complete a minimum of one cycle of sampling and analyzing for each successive 10-second period and one cycle of data recording for each successive 6-minute period.

(2) All continuous monitoring systems referenced by paragraph (c) of this section for measuring emissions, except opacity, shall complete a minimum of one cycle of operation (sampling, analyzing, and data recording) for each successive 15-minute period.

(f) All continuous monitoring systems or monitoring devices shall be installed such that representative measurements of emissions or process parameters from the affected facility are obtained. Additional procedures for location of continuous monitoring systems contained in the applicable Performance Specifications of appendix B of this part shall be used.

(g) When the effluents from a single affected facility or two or more affected facilities subject to the same emission standards are combined before being released to the atmosphere, the owner or operator may install applicable continuous monitoring systems on each effluent or on the combined effluent. When the affected facilities are not subject to the same emission standards, separate continuous monitoring systems shall be installed on each effluent. When the effluent from one affected facility is released to the atmosphere through more than one point, the owner or operator shall install an applicable continuous monitoring system on each separate effluent unless the installation of fewer systems is approved by the Administrator. When more than one continuous monitoring system is used to measure the emissions from one affected facility (e.g., multiple breechings, multiple outlets), the owner or operator shall report the results as required from each continuous monitoring system.

(h)(1) Owners or operators of all continuous monitoring systems for measurement of opacity shall reduce all data to 6-minute averages and for continuous monitoring systems other than opacity to 1-hour averages for time periods as defined in §60.2. Six-minute opacity averages shall be calculated from 36 or more data points equally spaced over each 6-minute period.

(2) For continuous monitoring systems other than opacity, 1-hour averages shall be computed as follows, except that the provisions pertaining to the validation of partial operating hours are only applicable for affected facilities that are required by the applicable subpart to include partial hours in the emission calculations:

(i) Except as provided under paragraph (h)(2)(iii) of this section, for a full operating hour (any clock hour with 60 minutes of unit operation), at least four valid data points are required to calculate the hourly average, i.e., one data point in each of the 15-minute quadrants of the hour.

(ii) Except as provided under paragraph (h)(2)(iii) of this section, for a partial operating hour (any clock hour with less than 60 minutes of unit operation), at least one valid data point in each 15-minute quadrant of the hour in which the unit operates is required to calculate the hourly average.

(iii) For any operating hour in which required maintenance or quality-assurance activities are performed:

(A) If the unit operates in two or more quadrants of the hour, a minimum of two valid data points, separated by at least 15 minutes, is required to calculate the hourly average; or

Page 145: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Permit Issued: February 26, 2018 04700061-101 Permit Expires: Non-expiring Page 145 of 181

(B) If the unit operates in only one quadrant of the hour, at least one valid data point is required to calculate the hourly average.

(iv) If a daily calibration error check is failed during any operating hour, all data for that hour shall be invalidated, unless a subsequent calibration error test is passed in the same hour and the requirements of paragraph (h)(2)(iii) of this section are met, based solely on valid data recorded after the successful calibration.

(v) For each full or partial operating hour, all valid data points shall be used to calculate the hourly average.

(vi) Except as provided under paragraph (h)(2)(vii) of this section, data recorded during periods of continuous monitoring system breakdown, repair, calibration checks, and zero and span adjustments shall not be included in the data averages computed under this paragraph.

(vii) Owners and operators complying with the requirements of §60.7(f)(1) or (2) must include any data recorded during periods of monitor breakdown or malfunction in the data averages.

(viii) When specified in an applicable subpart, hourly averages for certain partial operating hours shall not be computed or included in the emission averages (e.g., hours with < 30 minutes of unit operation under §60.47b(d)).

(ix) Either arithmetic or integrated averaging of all data may be used to calculate the hourly averages. The data may be recorded in reduced or nonreduced form (e.g., ppm pollutant and percent O2 or ng/J of pollutant).

(3) All excess emissions shall be converted into units of the standard using the applicable conversion procedures specified in the applicable subpart. After conversion into units of the standard, the data may be rounded to the same number of significant digits used in the applicable subpart to specify the emission limit.

(i) After receipt and consideration of written application, the Administrator may approve alternatives to any monitoring procedures or requirements of this part including, but not limited to the following:

(1) Alternative monitoring requirements when installation of a continuous monitoring system or monitoring device specified by this part would not provide accurate measurements due to liquid water or other interferences caused by substances in the effluent gases.

(2) Alternative monitoring requirements when the affected facility is infrequently operated.

(3) Alternative monitoring requirements to accommodate continuous monitoring systems that require additional measurements to correct for stack moisture conditions.

(4) Alternative locations for installing continuous monitoring systems or monitoring devices when the owner or operator can demonstrate that installation at alternate locations will enable accurate and representative measurements.

(5) Alternative methods of converting pollutant concentration measurements to units of the standards.

(6) Alternative procedures for performing daily checks of zero and span drift that do not involve use of span gases or test cells.

(7) Alternatives to the A.S.T.M. test methods or sampling procedures specified by any subpart.

(8) Alternative continuous monitoring systems that do not meet the design or performance requirements in Performance Specification 1, appendix B, but adequately demonstrate a definite and consistent relationship between its measurements and the measurements of opacity by a system complying with the requirements in Performance Specification 1. The Administrator may require that such demonstration be performed for each affected facility.

(9) Alternative monitoring requirements when the effluent from a single affected facility or the combined effluent from two or more affected facilities is released to the atmosphere through more than one point.

(j) An alternative to the relative accuracy (RA) test specified in Performance Specification 2 of appendix B may be requested as follows:

(1) An alternative to the reference method tests for determining RA is available for sources with emission rates demonstrated to be less than 50 percent of the applicable standard. A source owner or operator may petition the Administrator to waive the RA test in Section 8.4 of Performance Specification 2 and substitute the procedures in Section 16.0 if the results of a performance test conducted according to the requirements in §60.8 of this subpart or other tests performed following the criteria in §60.8 demonstrate that the emission rate of the pollutant of interest in the units of the applicable standard is less than 50 percent of the applicable standard. For sources subject to standards expressed as control efficiency levels, a source owner or operator may petition the Administrator to waive the RA test and substitute the procedures in Section 16.0 of Performance Specification 2 if the control device exhaust emission rate is less than 50 percent of the level needed to meet the control efficiency requirement. The alternative procedures do not apply if the continuous emission monitoring system is used to determine compliance continuously with the applicable standard. The petition to waive the RA test shall include a detailed description of the procedures to be applied. Included shall be location and procedure for conducting the alternative, the concentration or response levels of the alternative RA materials, and the other equipment checks included in the alternative procedure. The Administrator will review the petition for completeness and applicability. The determination to grant a waiver will depend on the intended use of the CEMS data (e.g., data collection purposes other than NSPS) and may require specifications more stringent than in Performance Specification 2 (e.g., the applicable emission limit is more stringent than NSPS).

(2) The waiver of a CEMS RA test will be reviewed and may be rescinded at such time, following successful completion of the alternative RA procedure, that the CEMS data indicate that the source emissions are approaching the level. The criterion for reviewing the waiver is the collection of CEMS data showing that emissions have exceeded 70 percent of the applicable standard for seven, consecutive, averaging periods as specified by the applicable regulation(s). For sources subject to standards expressed as control efficiency levels, the criterion for reviewing the waiver is the collection of CEMS data showing that exhaust emissions have exceeded 70 percent of the level needed to meet the control efficiency requirement for seven, consecutive, averaging periods as specified by the applicable regulation(s) [e.g., §§60.45(g) (2) and (3), 60.73(e), and 60.84(e)]. It is the responsibility of the source operator to maintain records and determine the level of emissions relative to the criterion on the waiver of RA testing. If this criterion is exceeded, the owner or operator must notify the Administrator within 10 days of such occurrence and include a description of the nature and cause of

Page 147: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Permit Issued: February 26, 2018 04700061-101 Permit Expires: Non-expiring Page 147 of 181

the increasing emissions. The Administrator will review the notification and may rescind the waiver and require the owner or operator to conduct a RA test of the CEMS as specified in Section 8.4 of Performance Specification 2.

§60.14 Modification. (a) Except as provided under paragraphs (e) and (f) of this section, any physical or operational change to an existing facility which results in an increase in the emission rate to the atmosphere of any pollutant to which a standard applies shall be considered a modification within the meaning of section 111 of the Act. Upon modification, an existing facility shall become an affected facility for each pollutant to which a standard applies and for which there is an increase in the emission rate to the atmosphere.

(b) Emission rate shall be expressed as kg/hr of any pollutant discharged into the atmosphere for which a standard is applicable. The Administrator shall use the following to determine emission rate:

(1) Emission factors as specified in the latest issue of “Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors,” EPA Publication No. AP-42, or other emission factors determined by the Administrator to be superior to AP-42 emission factors, in cases where utilization of emission factors demonstrates that the emission level resulting from the physical or operational change will either clearly increase or clearly not increase.

(2) Material balances, continuous monitor data, or manual emission tests in cases where utilization of emission factors as referenced in paragraph (b)(1) of this section does not demonstrate to the Administrator's satisfaction whether the emission level resulting from the physical or operational change will either clearly increase or clearly not increase, or where an owner or operator demonstrates to the Administrator's satisfaction that there are reasonable grounds to dispute the result obtained by the Administrator utilizing emission factors as referenced in paragraph (b)(1) of this section. When the emission rate is based on results from manual emission tests or continuous monitoring systems, the procedures specified in appendix C of this part shall be used to determine whether an increase in emission rate has occurred. Tests shall be conducted under such conditions as the Administrator shall specify to the owner or operator based on representative performance of the facility. At least three valid test runs must be conducted before and at least three after the physical or operational change. All operating parameters which may affect emissions must be held constant to the maximum feasible degree for all test runs.

(c) The addition of an affected facility to a stationary source as an expansion to that source or as a replacement for an existing facility shall not by itself bring within the applicability of this part any other facility within that source.

(d) [Reserved]

(e) The following shall not, by themselves, be considered modifications under this part:

(1) Maintenance, repair, and replacement which the Administrator determines to be routine for a source category, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this section and §60.15.

(2) An increase in production rate of an existing facility, if that increase can be accomplished without a capital expenditure on that facility.

(3) An increase in the hours of operation.

(4) Use of an alternative fuel or raw material if, prior to the date any standard under this part becomes applicable to that source type, as provided by §60.1, the existing facility was designed to accommodate that alternative use. A facility shall be considered to be designed to accommodate an alternative fuel or raw material if that use could be accomplished under the facility's construction specifications as amended prior to the change. Conversion to coal required for energy considerations, as specified in section 111(a)(8) of the Act, shall not be considered a modification.

(5) The addition or use of any system or device whose primary function is the reduction of air pollutants, except when an emission control system is removed or is replaced by a system which the Administrator determines to be less environmentally beneficial.

(6) The relocation or change in ownership of an existing facility.

(f) Special provisions set forth under an applicable subpart of this part shall supersede any conflicting provisions of this section.

(g) Within 180 days of the completion of any physical or operational change subject to the control measures specified in paragraph (a) of this section, compliance with all applicable standards must be achieved.

(h) No physical change, or change in the method of operation, at an existing electric utility steam generating unit shall be treated as a modification for the purposes of this section provided that such change does not increase the maximum hourly emissions of any pollutant regulated under this section above the maximum hourly emissions achievable at that unit during the 5 years prior to the change.

(i) Repowering projects that are awarded funding from the Department of Energy as permanent clean coal technology demonstration projects (or similar projects funded by EPA) are exempt from the requirements of this section provided that such change does not increase the maximum hourly emissions of any pollutant regulated under this section above the maximum hourly emissions achievable at that unit during the five years prior to the change.

(j)(1) Repowering projects that qualify for an extension under section 409(b) of the Clean Air Act are exempt from the requirements of this section, provided that such change does not increase the actual hourly emissions of any pollutant regulated under this section above the actual hourly emissions achievable at that unit during the 5 years prior to the change.

(2) This exemption shall not apply to any new unit that:

(i) Is designated as a replacement for an existing unit;

(ii) Qualifies under section 409(b) of the Clean Air Act for an extension of an emission limitation compliance date under section 405 of the Clean Air Act; and

(iii) Is located at a different site than the existing unit.

(k) The installation, operation, cessation, or removal of a temporary clean coal technology demonstration project is exempt from the requirements of this section. A temporary clean coal control technology demonstration project, for the purposes of this section is a clean coal technology demonstration project that is operated for a period of 5 years or less, and which complies with the State implementation plan for the State in which the project is located and other requirements necessary to attain and maintain the national ambient air quality standards during the project and after it is terminated.

(l) The reactivation of a very clean coal-fired electric utility steam generating unit is exempt from the requirements of this section.

§60.15 Reconstruction. (a) An existing facility, upon reconstruction, becomes an affected facility, irrespective of any change in emission rate.

(b) “Reconstruction” means the replacement of components of an existing facility to such an extent that:

(1) The fixed capital cost of the new components exceeds 50 percent of the fixed capital cost that would be required to construct a comparable entirely new facility, and

(2) It is technologically and economically feasible to meet the applicable standards set forth in this part.

(c) “Fixed capital cost” means the capital needed to provide all the depreciable components.

(d) If an owner or operator of an existing facility proposes to replace components, and the fixed capital cost of the new components exceeds 50 percent of the fixed capital cost that would be required to construct a comparable entirely new facility, he shall notify the Administrator of the proposed replacements. The notice must be postmarked 60 days (or as soon as practicable) before construction of the replacements is commenced and must include the following information:

(1) Name and address of the owner or operator.

(2) The location of the existing facility.

(3) A brief description of the existing facility and the components which are to be replaced.

(4) A description of the existing air pollution control equipment and the proposed air pollution control equipment.

(5) An estimate of the fixed capital cost of the replacements and of constructing a comparable entirely new facility.

(6) The estimated life of the existing facility after the replacements.

(7) A discussion of any economic or technical limitations the facility may have in complying with the applicable standards of performance after the proposed replacements.

(e) The Administrator will determine, within 30 days of the receipt of the notice required by paragraph (d) of this section and any additional information he may reasonably require, whether the proposed replacement constitutes reconstruction.

(f) The Administrator's determination under paragraph (e) shall be based on:

(1) The fixed capital cost of the replacements in comparison to the fixed capital cost that would be required to construct a comparable entirely new facility;

(2) The estimated life of the facility after the replacements compared to the life of a comparable entirely new facility;

(3) The extent to which the components being replaced cause or contribute to the emissions from the facility; and

(4) Any economic or technical limitations on compliance with applicable standards of performance which are inherent in the proposed replacements.

(g) Individual subparts of this part may include specific provisions which refine and delimit the concept of reconstruction set forth in this section.

1.2 Facility description

REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces biodiesel from soybean oil and methanol, and lower quality feedstocks such as used cooking oil, inedible corn oil, and lower quality animal fats. Currently, the facility is restricted by a production permit limit of 38,000,000 gallons of biodiesel per year. The facility is a true minor source under the federal Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) program. The facility is a synthetic minor source under the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) and Part 70 programs for methanol (a federally-designated Hazardous Air Pollutant, HAP) and total HAPs. The main sources of methanol emissions are equipment leaks and from the distillation process. A flare (TREA 2) controls VOC and HAP emissions from the process equipment and four storage tanks.

1.3 Description of the activities allowed by this permit action This permit action is for a major and minor amendment. The MPCA has a combined operating and construction permitting program under Minn. R. ch. 7007, and under Minn. R. 7007.0800. In the major amendment, REG is proposing to increase the maximum production rate from the currently permitted 38 million gallons per year to 44 million gallons per year. No physical changes to the facility are required to accomplish this production increase. In the minor amendment, REG is proposing to install a natural gas boiler with a maximum design capacity of 33.5 mmBtu/hr. REG currently receives plant process steam from the neighboring POET bio-refining Glenville East (POET) ethanol plant. The proposed boiler will provide process steam during periods that steam cannot be obtained from POET.

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 2 of 12

The proposed boiler addition is a minor amendment, which does not require construction authorization due to Minn. R. 7007.1450, subp. 7(A). Therefore, this permit does not authorize construction.

1.5 Facility emissions: The facility is proposing to increase production capacity without making any physical changes to the facility. The potential to emit of the entire facility after the modification are being evaluated against the NSR and 112(g) thresholds to determine if NSR or 112(g) review is required. Therefore, in Table 3 below, the values in the ‘Limited Potential Emissions for the Modification’ column are also the total facility PTE. This includes the emissions from the minor amendment to install a 33.5 mmBtu/hr boiler. The facility is required by their current permit to operate a flare to control emissions at all times any operation controlled by the flare is operating. The facility may take into account all federally enforceable emissions limitations when calculating the unlimited potential to emit; therefore, the unlimited potential emissions from the modification are equal to the limited potential emissions from the modification.

1.6 Changes to permit

The MPCA has a combined operating and construction permitting program under Minnesota Rules Chapter 7007, and under Minn. R. 7007.0800, the MPCA has authority to include additional requirements in a permit. Under that authority, the following changes to the permit are also made through this permit action:

· Industrial Process Equipment requirements for EQUIs 34, 49, 58, and 61 were removed from a group and placed at each individual unit;

· Industrial Process Equipment requirements added to EQUIs 31, 37, 38, 48, and 55; · 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. Dc requirements removed from group for both oil heaters and placed at each

individual unit; · Minnesota Standards of Performance for Indirect Heating Equipment removed from the permit for

both Hot Oil Heater #1 (EQUI 59) and Hot Oil Heater #2 (EQUI 32) because they are already subject to standard of performance under 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. Dc;

· Modeling Parameters from modeling triggered by the minor amendment added as Appendix F to the permit;

· Updated outdated requirement language; · Updated Facility Description and Subject Item Descriptions; · Removed already completed requirements; · Moved flare control efficiency limit from COMG 4 to TREA 2 and added requirements to each EQUI

that vents to TREA that requires each EQUI to vent to TREA 2; · Added Appendix G with 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. A – General Provisions; and · Adjusted modeling language. A discussion of this can be found in this TSD in Section 3.3.

2. Regulatory and/or statutory basis

2.1 New source review (NSR) The potential emissions from the modifications are not subject to NSR as shown in Table 3 because the potential to emit of the facility does not constitute a major source; therefore, this permit action is not subject to NSR. REG receives process steam from the neighboring POET bio-refining Glenville East (POET) ethanol plant. This relationship was evaluated for permit number 04700061-003. It was determined that these were two

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 4 of 12

separate sources. Please see the TSD to permit number 04700061-003 for the detailed analysis of this determination.

2.2 Part 70 permit program The permit carries forward limits on the facility such that it is a nonmajor source under the Part 70 permit program.

2.3 New source performance standards (NSPS) The Permittee has stated that no New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) apply to the operations at this facility due to the increase in biodiesel production. The proposed boiler (EQUI 43) is subject to 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. Dc – Standards of Performance for Small Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam Generating Units (NSPS Dc). NSPS Dc applicability is based on the maximum design heat input capacity and the date that the steam generating unit commenced construction, modification or reconstruction. NSPS Dc applies if the steam generating unit meets the following criteria:

· Commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after June 9, 1989, as stated in 40 CFR §60.40c(a); and

· Maximum design heat input capacity of 100 MMBtu/hr or less, but greater than or equal to 10 MMBtu, as stated in 40 CFR §60.40c(a).

Construction has not commenced on the proposed boiler, and the boiler will have a maximum design heat input capacity of 33.5 MMBtu; therefore, it meets both of these criteria and is subject to 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. Dc. The permit allows the proposed boiler to burn only natural gas. Therefore, it is only subject to the recordkeeping requirements for fuel records.

2.4 National emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP)

The facility has accepted limits on biodiesel production and methanol emissions such that it is an area source under 40 CFR pt. 63. Thus, no major source NESHAPs apply. In addition, the Permittee has stated that no area source NESHAPs apply to the facility. The proposed Boiler (EQUI 43) is not subject to 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. JJJJJJ – National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers Area Sources. This Boiler is not subject to 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. JJJJJJ as described in 40 CFR 63.11195 because it meets the definition of a gas-fired boiler as defined in 40 CFR 63.11237.

2.6 Environmental review and air emissions risk analysis (AERA) The proposed increase in biodiesel production does not require an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW).

The proposed increase of the biodiesel production does not require an EAW because the increase of feedstock is below the 25,000 dry tons per year threshold to prepare an EAW under Minn. R. 4410.4300, subp. 5(A). The proposed biodiesel production increase equates to 22,050 dry tons per year of feedstock. (Note: the density of biodiesel is 7.35 lb/gal)

If the facility proposes an additional increase to the biodiesel production limit, the sum of that increase and the increase from this permit action will need to be evaluated for an EAW. This comparison will ensure that production increases that do not require an EAW individually will be evaluated in a way to avoid circumventing the requirement to conduct an EAW.

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 5 of 12

Previously, an EAW was conducted in 2015 for an increase to the maximum biodiesel production capacity of the facility. Please see the TSD for permit No. 04700061-003 for a detailed explanation of the EAW and the reason it was required.

2.7 Minnesota state rules Portions of the facility are subject to the following Minnesota Standards of Performance:

· Minn. R. 7011.0515 Standards of Performance for New Indirect Heating Equipment · Minn. R. 7011.0715 Standards of Performance for Post-1969 Industrial Process Equipment

COMG 4 (Facility Limits)

Production <= 44.0 million gallons per year 12-month rolling sum. The 12-month Rolling Sum of biodiesel shall be calculated by the 15th day of each month as described later in this permit. This is a state-only requirement and is not enforceable by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator and citizens under the Clean Air Act. [Minn. R. 4410.4300, Minn. R. 7007.0800, subp. 2]

Daily recordkeeping of biodiesel production and monthly calculation of 12-month rolling sum of biodiesel produced

This limit ensures the facility’s increase use of biomass is less than the threshold that requires an EAW. See section 2.6 of this TSD for a detailed explanation. Daily production records and monthly calculation of the 12-month rolling sum is sufficient to demonstrate compliance with this limit. The language 'This is a state-only requirement and is not enforceable by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator and citizens under the Clean Air Act' refers to permit requirements that are established only under state law and are not established under or required by the federal Clean Air Act. The language is to clarify the distinction between permit conditions that are required by federal law and those that are required only under state law. State law-only requirements are not enforceable by the EPA or by citizens under the federal Clean Air Act, but are fully enforceable by the MPCA and citizens under provisions of state law.

3.1 Calculations of potential to emit

Page 188: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 7 of 12

Attachment 1 to this TSD contains detailed spreadsheets and supporting information prepared by the MPCA and the Permittee. For PTE calculation purposes, emissions from COMG 4 (EQUI 31, EQUI 34, EQUI 37, EQUI 39, EQUI 45, EQUI 48, EQUI 58, EQUI 61, STRU 1, and TREA 2) were calculated on a unit by unit basis.

3.1.1 Vacuum Pump (EQUI 39) The calculations use an emission factor of 1.18 lb/hr based on a biodiesel plant with a maximum capacity of 12 million gallons per year. Permit action 04700061-003 scaled this emission factor up to a maximum capacity of 38 million gallons per year, which resulted in an emission factor of 3.73 lb/hr. The calculations for the production increase to 44 million gallons per year multiply the 3.73 lb/hr emission factor by (44/38) to scale this up to the new production rate.

3.1.2 Transesterification Reactors (EQUI 45)

Emissions from this process tank was calculated for permit action 04700061-003 using the EPA TANKS software, version 4.09D. The calculations for the proposed production increase multiply the previous emission factor by (44/38) to scale this value up from a biodiesel production of 38 million gallons per year to 44 million gallons per year.

3.1.3 Acidulation (EQUI 55) A method for estimating emissions from the acidulation process has not been developed. If there are emissions from this process, they are controlled by the flare.

3.1.4 Deacidification System (EQUI 38) Permit action 04700061-003 calculated the emissions for deacidification using the ideal gas law and assuming an ethanol concentration of 1000 ppm. The calculations for the production increase to 44 million gallons per year multiply the emission factor by (44/38) to scale this up to the new production rate.

3.1.5 Biodiesel Distillation (EQUI 48) Permit action 04700061-003 calculated emissions from biodiesel distillation using the ideal gas law and chemical engineering software by Pfaudler Engineered Systems. The inputs to this program are not public data. Ted West, the General Manager of REG (legally responsible official), certified that the values obtained for VOC and methanol emissions are correct. The calculations for the production increase to 44 million gallons per year multiply the emission factor by (44/38) to scale this up to the new production rate.

3.1.6 Water Absorber (EQUI 37) Permit action 04700061-003 calculated the emissions for the water absorber using the ideal gas law and assuming a methanol concentration of 50 ppm. The calculations for the production increase to 44 million gallons per year multiple the emission factor by (44/38) to scale this up to the new production rate.

3.1.7 Biodiesel Loadout (EQUI 31) Emissions from this process tank were calculated for permit action 04700061-003 using the EPA TANKS software, version 4.09D. The calculations for the proposed production increase multiply the previous emission factor by (44/38) to scale this value up from a biodiesel production of 38 million gallons per year to 44 million gallons per year.

3.1.8 Cooling Towers (EQUI 54 and EQUI 60)

Page 189: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 8 of 12

The PM, PM10, and PM2.5 emissions for the cooling towers have reduced due to a change in the maximum total dissolved solids (TDS) value. The calculations from Permit No. 04700061-003 used a TDS value of 4000 ppm from a similar biodiesel facility with a production of 12 million gallons per year. An updated maximum TDS value of 1474 was used by REG due to site-specific measurements. REG obtained conductivity measurements for their cooling towers in 2015 from Nalco and provided updated calculations with the justification for the updated calculations via email from Julie Ingoli at REG Albert Lea LLC to Cynthia Schafer at MPCA on 04/22/2015. These updated calculations were provided in a certified application that was received by the MPCA on 04/23/2015. The TSD for Permit No. 04700061-003 contains an explanation for the new TDS value and how it was obtained from the measured conductivity value. The original calculations used the Canada cooling tower methodology to calculate the PM, PM10, and PM2.5 emissions. However, MPCA conditionally approved REG’s modeling protocol with one condition being the use of the New Mexico method for estimating cooling tower particulate emissions. The emissions calculations have been updated to reflect the New Mexico method for estimating cooling tower particulate emissions to remain consistent with the modeling emission calculations. The New Mexico Environment Department Air Quality Bureau Technical Memo on Calculating TSD, PM-10, and PM-2.5 from Cooling Towers is attachment 5 to this TSD. This method changed the percentage of PM2.5 from 0.2% to 0.36% and the PM10 from 50% to 79%. The methanol calculations use the ratio of the new biodiesel production rate to the production rate of the emission factor. This is a ratio of (44/12) since the emission factor is from a similar facility with a production capacity of 12 million gallons per year.

3.1.9 Boiler (EQUI 43) The calculations for the proposed 33.5 mmBtu/hr boiler use emission factors for natural gas combustion from AP-42 Chapter 1.4 and 40 CFR pt. 98, subp. A. A factor of 1,020 was used to convert emission factors from lb/MMscf to lb/MMBtu.

3.1.10 Combustion Emissions (EQUI 32, EQUI 59, and TREA 2) The calculations for the combustion emissions associated with the flare burner and hot oil heaters are based on the maximum heat input; therefore, the potential emissions associated with these units did not change due to this modification. Individual HAPs from AP-42 Chapter 1.4 listed for TREA 2, EQUI 32, and EQUI 59.

3.1.11 Tanks (EQUI 34, EQUI 49, EQUI 58, and EQUI 61)

Emissions from storage tanks were calculated using the EPA Tanks software, version 4.09D.

REG used methanol as a surrogate for sodium methylate for the TANKS software because sodium methylate was not a substance listed in TANKS software. This is a conservative method because methanol has a higher vapor pressure than sodium methylate.

3.1.12 Insignificant Activity Tanks

Emissions from the insignificant activity tanks were calculated using the EPA Tanks software, version 4.09D for the tanks that have the potential to emit any methanol. The insignificant activity tanks include the glycerin tank and the various biodiesel distillation, bottoms, and product tanks.

3.2 Dispersion modeling

Page 190: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 9 of 12

Per MPCA policy, as permitted in Permit No. 04700061-003, the facility triggered the requirement to complete equivalent or better dispersion (EBD) modeling for PM10 and PM2.5 because the addition of the proposed boiler required a minor amendment. Per MPCA practice, a table of the modeled parameters has been added to the permit as an appendix (Appendix F). Other than the requirement to operate the flare (TREA 2), the parameters listed in Appendix F of the permit describe the operation of the facility at maximum capacity. In other words, the flow rates and temperatures listed in Appendix F represent the minimum parameters at the maximum emission rates. The MPCA does not require any specific compliance demonstration with these parameters because they are worst-case conditions. The purpose of listing the parameters in the permit appendix is to provide a benchmark for determining when additional modeling is required. Preliminary analysis modeling for PM10 and PM2.5 showed that emission increases from the proposed boiler resulted in modeled concentrations below the significant impact levels (SILs) except for 24-hour PM2.5, which resulted in a modeled concentration above the SIL; therefore, refined modeling was only required for 24-hour PM2.5. See Table 7 for preliminary analysis modeling results. Table 7. REG Preliminary Analysis Modeling Results

The results indicate modeled 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS/MAAQS exceedances; however, the results show that at the exceeding receptors, the highest contributions from REG were below the SIL. Table 8.

The only other source modeled as a nearby source in REG’s refined modeling for PM2.5 was POET. Looking at the differences between the total modeled concentrations, background, and REG’s maximum contribution toward modeled exceedances in Table 8, POET is shown to be the major contributor to the modeled 24-hour PM2.5 exceedances.

3.3 Modeling Language Permit No. 04700061-003 established modeling language for PM10 and PM2.5 so that an EBD analysis was required anytime a change is made that affects the emission rates or modeling parameters for PM10 or PM2.5. This was based on the 2015 modeling required by an EAW that showed NAAQS exceedances for PM10 and PM2.5 24-hour and annual. REG’s culpability analysis showed that they were not culpable for these exceedances and that POET, the only listed nearby source, was the major contributor. However, this

Page 191: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 10 of 12

stringent modeling language was chosen on a case-by-case basis due to the high NAAQS exceedances shown in the modeling. POET recently modeled and achieved compliance with the NAAQS and MAAQS for PM10 and PM2.5 for both 24-hour and annual. Based on POET’s modeling results and REG’s culpability analysis, REG’s modeling language is being adjusted. The updated PM2.5 and PM10 24-hour and annual modeling language will require an EBD analysis only for a major or moderate amendment. REG is a relatively small contributor to the PM10 and PM2.5 concentration in the area and REG does not regularly make changes that alter PM2.5 or PM10 emissions. The decision to remove minor amendments in the modeling language was based on REG’s process. REG does not have emissions from material handling and the facility does not make frequent changes resulting in changes to PM2.5 or PM10 emissions.

3.4 Schedule of Compliance (SoC)

REG has been allowed to operate at a biodiesel production limit of 44 million gallons as of December 13, 2016 through a Schedule of Compliance (SoC) between REG and the MPCA. Attachment 4 to this TSD contains the SoC. REG agreed to five requirements as part of this SoC. These requirements from part 6 of the SoC are as follows:

a. Within 20 days of receipt of this Agreement, the Regulated Party agrees to submit complete documentation, and a statement certifying under penalty of law, demonstrating that no environmental review process under state or federal law is necessary prior to increasing the currently-permitted biodiesel production limit;

b. Within 30 days of receipt of this Agreement, the Regulated Party agrees to submit a complete major permit amendment application to increase the currently permitted biodiesel production limit;

c. The Regulated Party agrees to operate its Facility in compliance with the major permit amendment application required under Part b above, including all associated recordkeeping requirements, and to keep records sufficient to demonstrate compliance until the MPCA issues a new air emissions permit;

d. On or before April 1, 2017, the Regulated Party agrees to replace six existing electric motors at the Facility. The electric motors to be replaced are the Cooling Tower 1, Cooling Tower 2, Cooling Tower 3, Thermal Fluid 1, Thermal Fluid 2, and Thermal Fluid 3 motors; and

e. On or before May 1, 2017, the Regulated Party agrees to submit a statement and records, such as purchase records, to certify and demonstrate that the replacement of the engines from the installation of the six energy-efficient electric motors. The quantification shall include megawatt hours and carbon dioxide emissions.

At the time of this permit, REG has completed these requirements and has not violated the SoC. Documentation for items a, d, and e listed above can be found in Attachment 4 to this TSD.

3.5 Monitoring

In accordance with the Clean Air Act, it is the responsibility of the owner or operator of a facility to have sufficient knowledge of the facility to certify that the facility is in compliance with all applicable requirements.

In evaluating the monitoring included in the permit, the MPCA considered the following:

· The likelihood of the facility violating the applicable requirements. · Whether add-on controls are necessary to meet the emission limits. · The variability of emissions over time.

Page 192: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 04700061-101 Page 11 of 12

· The type of monitoring, process, maintenance, or control equipment data already available for the emission unit.

· The technical and economic feasibility of possible periodic monitoring methods. · The kind of monitoring found on similar units elsewhere.

Table 6 above summarizes the monitoring requirements associated with these amendments.

3.6 Insignificant activities

REG Albert Lea LLC has several operations that are classified as insignificant activities under the MPCA’s permitting rules. These are listed in Appendix A to the permit. No changes to insignificant activities were made as part of this permit action.

3.7 Permit organization This permit action marks the transition of REG’s air quality permit from MPCA’s Delta permitting system to the Tempo permitting system. The MPCA migrated data from Delta – including the description of the facility (e.g., emission units, stack/vents, and groups) and permit text – to Tempo. In the migration, items were renamed and are now identified differently.

In this permit, federal requirements from NSPS are included in two different formats. The requirements for 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. Dc, 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. NNN, 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. RRR, and 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. VVa are incorporated into the permit as individual permit requirements, which has historically been MPCA’s standard practice. However, the associated General Provisions in 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. A are included in a different way. For these rules, limits, and submittal/actions are included individually in the permit like the other standards. For the remaining portions of the rule, a requirement in Section 5 of the permit lists the citations of all of the applicable parts of the standard along with a reference to the permit appendix where the full text of the standard is included. 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. A is included in Appendix G.

Permit fee assessment Attachment 3 to this TSD contains the MPCA’s assessment of Application and Additional Points used to determine the permit application fee for this permit action as required by Minn. R. 7002.0019. The permit action includes two permit applications, both received after the effective date of the rule (July 1, 2009). The major amendment includes the increase to REG’s biodiesel production limit. The biodiesel production limit is a limit to avoid an EAW, so this is a chargeable activity. The minor amendment is for the installation of a 33.5 mmBtu/hr boiler. The boiler incorporated 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. Dc, however this was an existing standard that applied to the facility and is not a chargeable activity. The minor amendment also included PM2.5 refined modeling, which is a chargeable activity.

5. Conclusion Based on the information provided by REG Albert Lea LLC the MPCA has reasonable assurance that the proposed operation of the emission facility, as described in the Air Emission Permit No. 04700061-101 and this TSD, will not cause or contribute to a violation of applicable federal regulations and Minnesota Rules.

STATE OF MINNESOTA MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY 

  

IN THE MATTER OF:  REG ALBERT LEA, LLC        COMPLIANCE AGREEMENT  Part 1.  PARTIES. This Compliance Agreement (“Agreement”) applies to and is binding upon the following parties:  

a. REG Albert Lea, LLC (“Regulated Party”); and  b. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (“MPCA”). 

 Unless specified otherwise in this Agreement, where this Agreement identifies actions to be taken by the MPCA, the Commissioner or the Commissioner’s designees shall act on the MPCA's behalf.  Part 2.  PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF COMPLIANCE AGREEMENT. The purpose of this Agreement is to establish the terms and conditions that apply to a physical change or a change in operating conditions that the Regulated Party intends to undertake at the facility that would otherwise require an air emissions permit amendment. Nothing in this Agreement allows for changes except for those expressly outlined herein. Nothing in this Agreement relieves the Regulated Party of its obligation to comply with all terms and conditions of its existing air emissions permit that are not modified by this Agreement.  Part 3.  AUTHORITY. This Agreement is entered under the authority vested in the MPCA by Minn. Stat. ch. 115.  Part 4.  DEFINITIONS. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, the definitions in Minn. Stat. chs. 115, 115A, 115B, 115C, 116, 116B, and in Minn. R. chs. 7000 to 7151 apply, as appropriate, to the terms used in this Agreement.  Part 5.  BACKGROUND. The following is the background of this Agreement:  

a. The Regulated Party is a limited liability corporation that operates a biodiesel production facility ("Facility") located in Albert Lea, Minnesota. 

 b. The Regulated Party completed a construction project to include distillation in its biodiesel 

refining process in July 2013. This project allowed the Regulated Party to increase the production of biodiesel at its Facility. 

 c. The MPCA issued the most recent Air Emissions Permit number 04700061‐003 (Permit) to 

the Regulated Party on October 6, 2015. The Permit included an increase in the biodiesel production limit to less than or equal to 38.0 million gallons per year, calculated by using a 12‐month rolling sum. 

 d. In May 2016, the Regulated Party submitted a permit amendment application to increase its 

permitted biodiesel production limit, but the MPCA rejected the application for procedural reasons. On October 20, 2016, the Regulated Party resubmitted a major permit amendment application for 

Page 307: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

increasing its permitted biodiesel production limit to 44.0 million gallons per year, calculated by using a 12‐month rolling sum. The MPCA deemed the application complete on November 22, 2016. 

 e. Increasing the permitted biodiesel production limit beyond 38.0 million gallons per year 

requires a major permit amendment to the Regulated Party’s air emissions permit. The increase in biodiesel production will cause the Regulated Party to exceed its permitted biodiesel production limit before the MPCA can issue a major amendment to authorize the production increase. 

 f. The Regulated Party conducted air dispersion modeling in October 2016, which showed that 

the Regulated Party can maintain compliance with ambient air standards based on 44.0 million gallons of production. Based on that modeling exercise, the increase in production to 44.0 million gallons per year allowed under this Agreement will not result in noncompliance with ambient air standards. 

 g. The Regulated Party has agreed to complete an environmental improvement project in 

conjunction with exceeding its permitted biodiesel production limit.  Part 6.  REGULATED PARTY REQUIREMENTS. The Regulated Party agrees to the following:  

a. Within 20 days of receipt of this Agreement, the Regulated Party agrees to submit complete documentation, and a statement certifying under penalty of law, demonstrating that no environmental review process under state or federal law is necessary prior to increasing the currently‐permitted biodiesel production limit. 

 b. Within 30 days of receipt of this Agreement, the Regulated Party agrees to submit a 

complete major permit amendment application to increase the currently permitted biodiesel production limit. 

...THIS REQUIREMENT HAS BEEN COMPLETED.  

c. The Regulated Party agrees to operate its Facility in compliance with the major permit amendment application required under Part 6.b. above, including all associated recordkeeping requirements, and to keep records sufficient to demonstrate compliance until the MPCA issues a new air emissions permit. 

 d. On or before April 1, 2017, the Regulated Party agrees to replace six existing electric motors 

at the Facility. The electric motors to be replaced are the Cooling Tower 1, Cooling Tower 2, Cooling Tower 3, Thermal Fluid 1, Thermal Fluid 2, and Thermal Fluid 3 motors.  

 e. On or before May 1, 2017, the Regulated Party agrees to submit a statement and records, 

such as purchase records, to certify and demonstrate that the replacement of the engines has occurred, as well as a quantification of the energy and associated emissions savings resulting from the installation of the six energy‐efficient electric motors. The quantification shall include megawatt hours and carbon dioxide emissions.  Part 7.  PENALTIES FOR VIOLATIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.  

a. If the Regulated Party fails to comply with the requirements of Parts 6, a‐e of this Agreement, the Regulated Party shall pay to the MPCA a penalty in the amount of $250 per requirement for each day of failure.

b. Penalties for failure to comply with requirements of Part 6 of this Agreement shall accrue from the date the Regulated Party was to have fulfilled the requirement until the Regulated Party fulfills the requirement. Penalties shall not accrue while the MPCA considers a timely extension request under Part 11 or during dispute resolution under Part 9, unless the MPCA determines that the Regulated Party filed the request or initiated dispute resolution solely for purposes of delay. If the Regulated Party does not pursue dispute resolution under Part 9 for denial of a timely extension request, penalties shall accrue from the date the extension request is denied by the MPCA Case Contact. If the Regulated Party pursues dispute resolution for denial of an extension request and does not file a timely challenge in a court of competent jurisdiction as provided by Part 9, penalties shall accrue from the date of a Commissioner’s dispute resolution decision against the Regulated Party until the Regulated Party fulfills the requirement that is the subject of the extension request. 

 c. The Regulated Party shall pay a penalty under this Part within 30 days after receiving written 

notice from the MPCA that the penalty is due. The written notice shall specify the provision of the Agreement that the Regulated Party has not fulfilled and indicate the date penalties began to accrue. If the Regulated Party fails to make timely payment, the MPCA may assess and the Regulated Party agrees to pay a late payment charge, in addition to the stipulated penalty, to be assessed as follows. Forty‐five days after receipt of written notice, the Regulated Party shall be obligated to pay a late charge in an amount equal to ten percent of the unpaid stipulated penalty. Sixty days after receipt of written notice, the Regulated Party shall be obligated to pay an additional late charge in an amount equal to 20 percent of the unpaid stipulated penalty. 

 d. In dispute resolution before the Commissioner under Part 9, the Regulated Party can 

contest the factual basis for the MPCA's determination that the Regulated Party has not fulfilled a requirement of this Agreement covered by this Part. However, the Regulated Party waives its right to challenge, on legal grounds, the requirement that it pay penalties under this Part. 

 e. The Regulated Party shall not be liable for payment of penalties for failure to comply with 

requirements of Part 6 of this Agreement covered by this Part if it has submitted to the MPCA a timely request for an extension of schedule under Part 11, and the MPCA has granted the request. The MPCA’s grant of an extension of schedule waives the payment of penalties covered by this Part only on the requirements for which the MPCA granted an extension of schedule and only for the time period specified by the MPCA in the grant of an extension. An extension of schedule for one requirement of Part 6 does not extend the schedule for any other requirement of Part 6.  

f.  Any requirement of this Agreement may be enforced, as provided in Minn. Stat.§ 115.071 (2008). Payment of a stipulated penalty does not relieve the Regulated Party of its obligation to fulfill and complete requirements under the Agreement and to otherwise comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement.  Part 8.  COVENANT NOT TO SUE AND RESERVATION OF REMEDIES. With respect to the Regulated Party, the MPCA agrees not to exercise any administrative, legal or equitable remedies available to the MPCA to address the facility modification or change described in Part 6 as long as the Regulated Party performs according to and has complied with the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. The MPCA reserves the right to enforce or revoke this Agreement or take any action authorized by law, if the Regulated Party fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  

a. Further, the MPCA reserves the right to seek to enjoin violations of this Agreement and to exercise its emergency powers pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 116.11 (2008) in the event conditions or the

Regulated Party’s conduct warrant such action. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the MPCA from exercising these rights and nothing in this Agreement constitutes a waiver of these rights. 

 b. The Regulated Party agrees to waive all claims it may now have, as of the effective date of 

this Agreement, under Minn. Stat. § 15.472 for fees and expenses arising out of matters leading up to and addressed in this Agreement.  Part 9.  RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES. The parties to this Agreement shall resolve disputes that arise as to any part of the Agreement as follows:  

a. Either party, acting through its Case Contact (as defined in Part 12 below), may initiate dispute resolution by providing to the Case Contact of the other party an initial written statement setting forth the matter in dispute, the position of the party, and the information the party is relying upon to support its position. 

 b. The other party, acting through its Case Contact, shall provide a written statement of its 

position and supporting information to the case contact of the initiating party within 14 calendar days after receipt of the initial written statement. 

 c. If the parties, acting through their Case Contacts, do not reach a resolution of the dispute 

and reduce such resolution to writing in a form agreed upon by the parties within 21 calendar days after the initiating party receives the statement of position from the responding party, the Commissioner shall issue a written decision resolving the dispute. The written decision may address stipulated penalties assessed pursuant to Part 7. The Commissioner's decision shall be considered a final decision of the MPCA for purposes of judicial review.  

d. The Commissioner's decision shall become an integral and enforceable part of this Agreement unless the Regulated Party timely challenges the decision in a court of competent jurisdiction. Failure to timely challenge means the Regulated Party agrees to comply with the MPCA Commissioner’s decision on the matter in dispute and to pay any penalties that accrue pursuant to Part 7 for failure to fulfill requirements of this Agreement that are the subject of the dispute resolution. Further, if the Commissioner’s decision assesses penalties pursuant to Part 7 of this Agreement, the Regulated Party agrees to and shall pay the amount of penalty determined by the Commissioner within 60 days after receiving the Commissioner’s decision.  

e.  Throughout any dispute resolution, the Regulated Party shall comply with all portions of the Agreement that the MPCA determines are not in dispute.  Part 10.  VENUE. Actions brought by the MPCA to enforce requirements and terms of this Agreement shall be venued in Ramsey County District Court.  Part 11.  EXTENSION OF SCHEDULES. If the Regulated Party wants an extension of a deadline included in a schedule set out in Part 6, the Regulated Party must request the extension in writing at least 10 days before the scheduled deadline, or as soon as possible before that date if the reason for the extension request arises less than 10 days before the deadline.    Each deadline extension request shall separately specify the reason why the extension is needed. No requested extension shall be effective until approved in writing by the MPCA, acting through the MPCA Case Contact or the Commissioner. 

Page 310: Air Individual Permit Major Amendment 04700061-101 for REG ... · REG Albert Lea, LLC (REG) is a biodiesel manufacturing plant located near Albert Lea, Minnesota. The facility produces

  The MPCA shall grant an extension only for the period of time the MPCA determines is reasonable under the circumstances. The written approval or grant of an extension request shall be considered an enforceable part of the Agreement.    The Regulated Party has the burden of demonstrating to the satisfaction of the MPCA that the request for the extension is timely, and that good cause exists for granting the extension. Good cause can include, but is not limited to, the following:  

a. Circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Regulated Party.  b. Delays caused by the MPCA in reviewing timely submittals required by this Agreement, the 

Regulated Party submitted in complete and approvable form, which make it not feasible for the Regulated Party to meet the required schedules. 

 c. Good cause does not include unanticipated costs, increases in the cost of control 

equipment, or delays in MPCA review of submittals when the submittals are not in complete and approvable form. 

 d. The Regulated Party may challenge a decision by the MPCA to deny a request for an 

extension under Part 9.  Part 12.  CASE CONTACT. The MPCA and the Regulated Party shall each designate a Case Contact for the purpose of overseeing the implementation of this Agreement. The MPCA Case Contact is Jenna Ness. The Regulated Party's Case Contact is Julie Ingoli. Either party may change its designated Case Contact by notifying the other party in writing within five days of the change. To the extent possible, communications between the Regulated Party and the MPCA concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be directed through the Case Contacts. The address and telephone number of the MPCA’s Case Contact is: 520 Lafayette Road North, St. Paul, Minnesota 55155, 651‐757‐2082. The address and telephone number of the Regulated Party’s Case Contact is: 15200 ‐ 780th Avenue, Albert Lea, Minnesota 56007‐7082, 515‐239‐8192.  Part 13.  REGULATED PARTY INFORMATION. The Regulated Party shall not knowingly make any false statement, representation or certification in any record, report, plan or other document filed or required to be submitted to the MPCA under this Agreement. The Regulated Party shall immediately upon discovery report to the MPCA any errors in such record, report, plan or other document.  Part 14.  REVIEW OF SUBMITTALS. The MPCA, acting through its Commissioner, Case Contact, or other designated MPCA staff, shall review all submittals made by the Regulated Party as required by this Agreement and shall notify the Regulated Party in writing of the approval or disapproval of each submittal, if applicable. The MPCA and the Regulated Party shall consult with each other upon the request of either party during the review of submittals. If any submittal is disapproved in whole or in part, the MPCA Commissioner or designated MPCA staff shall notify the Regulated Party of the specific inadequacies and shall indicate the necessary amendments or reviews. Within 15 calendar days after receipt of any notice of disapproval, the Regulated Party shall submit revisions and take actions to correct the inadequacies.  Part 15.  ACCESS. During the term of this Agreement, the Regulated Party agrees to provide the MPCA and its staff access to the Facility and its records and documents related to the implementation of this

TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM

DATE: September 9, 2013

TO: All Permitting Staff

FROM: Daren Zigich

THROUGH: Ted Schooley, Permit Program Manager Ned Jerabek, Major Source Section Manager

SUBJECT: Calculating TSP, PM-10 and PM-2.5 from Cooling Towers

The goal of this memo is to offer a Department approved step-by-step approach for calculating particulate emissions from cooling towers. While the Department encourages using this approach, other approaches, that do not use a droplet settling ratio may be approved on a case-by-case basis.

Due to the variability of methods used by permittees to estimate particulate emissions from cooling towers, a consistent, defensible approach is warranted. For example, some permittees have used a droplet settling ratio from Reference 3 to lower the total potential emissions rate of total particulate matter (PMtotal). This is unacceptable due to the following:

1. Particulate settling is not appropriate since any verification testing would becompleted inside the cooling tower fan stack. All particulate mass that can bemeasured by an EPA reference method and are emitted to the atmosphere shall becounted as particulate emissions. Particle size distribution can then be used to modifythe emission rate of each regulated particulate size.

2. The Department is not aware of information that verifies the droplet settling data isrepresentative for arid climates where evaporation rates are high.

3. The droplet size distribution and % mass data from Reference 1 only considerdroplets up to 600 microns. Reference 3 states that settling only exists for dropletsgreater than 450 microns. Reference 1 lists the % mass of droplets greater than 450microns to be less than 1 percent of the total mass.

4. Reference 2 test data shows that towers with significant drift droplet diameters greater than 600 microns usually suffer from poor installation of the drift eliminator or from poor water distribution due to issues with the tower packing. Large droplets may indicate that the assumed or guaranteed drift eliminator efficiency is not being met. Providing emissions credit for poor installation, operation or maintenance runs counter to general Department practice.

5. References 1 and 2 make no reference to and assign no credit for the settling theory stated in Reference 3.

For the above reasons, the Reference 3 settling ratio is not an acceptable emissions reduction approach. Acceptable Calculation Method

Cooling tower particulate emissions are a function of the Drift rate and the concentration of dissolved solids present in the water. The Drift rate is normally listed as a percentage of the circulating water flow rate of the cooling tower. Step 1 – Establish maximum water circulation rate (Qcirc) for the cooling tower. This is usually dependent on the capacity of the circulation pumps and the plant cooling system and should be reported as gallons per minute (gpm). The circulation rate is the sum of the circulation rates for each cell in the tower and thus represents the total flow for the tower. Step 2 – Establish Drift rate (Qdrift) of the cooling tower. This information is dependent on the drift eliminator design and is usually supplied by the tower manufacturer. If manufacturer data is unavailable, the standard drift of 0.02 percent, listed in AP-42, should be used. Step 3 – Establish maximum Total Dissolved Solids concentration (TDS) in the circulating cooling water. This is dependent on the facility’s operations. TDS should be reported as parts per million (ppm) or mg/l. Step 4 – Calculate total potential hourly particulate emissions (PMtotal) in pounds per hour

(lbs/hr).

PMtotal = TDS(mg/l) x 1(lbs/mg) x 3.785(l/gal) x Qcirc(gpm) x Qdrift(%Qcirc) x 60(min/hr) 453,600 100 Example: TDS = 3000 ppm or mg/l, Qcirc = 50,000 gpm, Qdrift = 0.004%

PMtotal = 3000 x (1/453,600) x 3.785 x 50,000 x (0.004/100) x 60

PMtotal = 3.0 lbs/hr

Step 5 – Estimate particulate size distribution of the PMtotal to determine potential emissions of TSP/PM, PM10 and PM2.5.

The current estimating technique used in References 1 and 2 employs a formula for determining a potential particulate size (i.e. diameter) for a given set of variables. The variables are:

dd = Drift droplet diameter, microns CTDS = Concentration of TDS in the circulating water, ppm x 10-6

ρw = Density of Drift droplet, g/cm3 ρsalt = Density of particle, g/cm3

The equation for determining particle size/diameter (dp), in microns is: dp = _______dd_______

(ρsalt / ρwCTDS)1/3 The tables below list particle size related to droplet size for various concentrations (1000 ppm to 12,000 ppm) of TDS in the circulating cooling water. The density of the water droplet (ρw) is assumed to be 1.0 g/cm3 (based on density of pure water) and the average density of the TDS salts is assumed to be 2.5 g/cm3. This assumed density is selected based on the average density of common TDS constituents, CaCO3, CaSO4, CaCl2 NaCl, Na2SO4, and Na2CO3. If actual circulating water constituents are available, that data may be used to estimate the dissolved solids average density.

To determine the droplet size that generates particulate matter of the applicable regulated diameters, TSP/PM (defined as 30 microns or less per NM AQB definition1), PM10 and PM2.5, find the column in the table that matches the maximum circulating water TDS concentration and read the values associated with the PM2.5, PM10 and TSP/PM boxes. Boxed values are not exactly equal to the applicable sizes, but are the values greater than and closest to the applicable sizes, given the listed water droplet values from Reference 1.

The far right column of each table provides mass distribution data from Reference 1. The values indicate what percent of the total particulate mass emission, calculated in Step 4, is associated with the applicable particulate size. Read the value that is on the same line (same color) as the applicable particulate size associated with the specified TDS concentration column. Note: Although the relationship between droplet size and percent mass is not linear, a linear interpolation of the tabulated data is acceptable between two adjacent rows (particle size) to determine an estimate of percent mass for a specific particle size (i.e. PM30, PM10 and PM2.5). Particle sizes for droplets with a non-listed TDS ppm concentration may be calculated using the equation in Step 5.

Example: Continuing from Step 4,

PMtotal = 3.0 lbs/hr CTDS = 3000 ppm

From Table:

PM2.5: dd = 30 %Mass = 0.226% PM10: dd = 110 %Mass = 70.509%

TSP/PM: dd = 270 %Mass = 96.288% The mass emission of each applicable particulate size is: PM2.5 = PMtotal(%Mass/100) = 3.0(0.00226) = 0.007 lbs/hr PM10 = 3.0(.70509) = 2.115 lbs/hr

TSP/PM = 3.0(.96288) = 2.889 lbs/hr
