SOURCE CONTACT: Todd Slade, Safety and Environmental Director: (435)-750-5000 X5122, (435)-757-9705 (Cell); tslade@iconfitness.com OPERATING STATUS: Operating. PROCESS DESCRIPTION: ICON manufactures and distributes replacement parts for treadmills which are now manufactured in Georgia and California. ICON still utilizes four injection molding machines to make different sizes of replacement plastic parts for the treadmills. The plastic beads arrive by truck. The plastic injection molder sucks the beads to be melted. The molten liquid is poured in a mold. The plastic parts are molded by extrusion machines. A non-contact cooling tower water cools the injection molders. If the plastic part requires painting, it is transferred to the painting booth which is equipped with filters. The water-based paints are applied using airless applicators. The painted parts then go through a pre-heat oven, then through a curing oven, both operating at 160 degrees Fahrenheit. The natural gas-fired furnace supplies heat for the building. The wall vents and fans are the only outlets for emissions from the room.

THROUGH: Alan Humphreys, Minor NSR Manager – Air Quality FROM: Dungan Adams, Minor NSR Engineer – Air Quality DATE: November 15, 2023 SUBJECT: iFIT Inc. Logan Facility TEMPO ID Clarification This memoradnum serves as clarification for the various TEMPO sites for iFIT Inc. (Previously known as Icon Health and Fitness and ProForm Fitness Products, Inc.). On October 11, 2023, the Division of Air Quality (DAQ) received a request from iFIT Inc. (iFIT) for an Evaluation of Compliance with Utah Administrative Code (UAC) Rule R307-401- 9: Small Source Exemption (SSE) for a Fitness Equipment Manufacturing Facility. The facility is located at 1500 S 1000 W in Logan, Cache County. TEMPO Site ID 16183 was created for the project. After the SSE was approved, it was determined that the facility was already in TEMPO under Site ID 11486, and that the facility had an active Approval Order (AO), DAQE-338-95. However, TEMPO Site ID 11486 references an address in Smithfield, not Logan. A different AO, DAQE-1002-95, was found under TEMPO Site ID 11486 in the EDocs database. This indicates that an active site existed in Smithfield since November 1995 and that TEMPO Site ID 11486 was incorrectly used for the Logan facility. The active AO for the Logan facility, DAQE- 338-95, uses the historic name ProForm Fitness Products Inc. TEMPO Site ID 11281 was found with the company name ProForm and the correct location at 1500 S 1000 W, Logan. Therefore, all future projects and inspections for the iFIT Fitness Equipment Manufacturing Facility located at 1500 S 1000 W in Logan shall use TEMPO Site 11281. 195 North 1950 West • Salt Lake City, UT Mailing Address: P.O.
