OPERATING STATUS: Operating normally

PROCESS DESCRIPTION:

Bountiful City operates the Bountiful Sanitary Landfill, a municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill located in
Davis County, Utah. The facility accepts municipal and commercial solid waste. The waste material is
brought to the landfill by trucks and trailers. There are designated areas in the landfill for various classes
of waste. After dumping, the waste material is compacted by heavy equipment that rolls over the material
as it levels and spreads the waste material. All waste material is inspected prior to entering the dump area.
When the waste material reaches the required depth, earth is spread over the material to a required depth
to seal the dump area. Water is used to control visible emissions.

I.B Permitted Activity(ies).

Except as provided in R307-415-7b(1), the permittee may not operate except in compliance
with this permit. (See also Provision I.E, Application Shield)

Status: In compliance. The source appeared to be operating in compliance with the conditions of this
permit. See each condition below for more specific details.

I.C Duty to Comply.

I.C.1 The permittee must comply with all conditions of the operating permit. Any permit
noncompliance constitutes a violation of the Air Conservation Act and is grounds for any of
the following: enforcement action; permit termination; revocation and reissuance;
modification; or denial of a permit renewal application. (R307-415-6a(6)(a))

I.C.2 It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been
necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the
conditions of this permit. (R307-415-6a(6)(b))

I.C.3 The permittee shall furnish to the Director, within a reasonable time, any information that
the Director may request in writing to determine whether cause exists for modifying,
revoking and reissuing, or terminating this permit or to determine compliance with this
permit. Upon request, the permittee shall also furnish to the Director copies of records
required to be kept by this permit or, for information claimed to be confidential, the
permittee may furnish such records directly to the EPA along with a claim of
confidentiality. (R307-415-6a(6)(e))

I.C.4 This permit may be modified, revoked, reopened, and reissued, or terminated for cause. The
filing of a request by the permittee for a permit modification, revocation and reissuance, or
termination, or of a notification of planned changes or anticipated noncompliance shall not
stay any permit condition, except as provided under R307-415-7f(1) for minor permit

I.N Emergency Provision.

I.N.1 An "emergency" is any situation arising from sudden and reasonably unforeseeable events
beyond the control of the source, including acts of God, which situation requires immediate
corrective action to restore normal operation, and that causes the source to exceed a
technology-based emission limitation under this permit, due to unavoidable increases in
emissions attributable to the emergency. An emergency shall not include noncompliance to
the extent caused by improperly designed equipment, lack of preventive maintenance,
careless or improper operation, or operator error. (R307-415-6g(1))

I.N.2 An emergency constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance
with such technology-based emission limitations if the affirmative defense is demonstrated
through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that:

I.N.2.a An emergency occurred and the permittee can identify the causes of the emergency.
(R307-415-6g(3)(a))

I.N.2.b The permitted facility was at the time being properly operated. (R307-415-6g(3)(b))

I.N.2.c During the period of the emergency the permittee took all reasonable steps to
minimize levels of emissions that exceeded the emission standards, or other
requirements in this permit. (R307-415-6g(3)(c))

I.N.2.d The permittee submitted notice of the emergency to the Director within two
working days of the time when emission limitations were exceeded due to the
emergency. This notice must contain a description of the emergency, any steps
taken to mitigate emissions, and corrective actions taken. This notice fulfills the
requirement of Provision I.S.2.c below. (R307-415-6g(3)(d))

I.N.3 In any enforcement proceeding, the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an
emergency has the burden of proof. (R307-415-6g(4))

II.A Emission Unit(s) Permitted to Discharge Air Contaminants.
(R307-415-4(3)(a) and R307-415-4(4))

II.A.1 Permitted Source (Source-wide)

II.A.2 MSW Landfill (designated as Landfill)
Class I Sanitary Landfill with a 4.2 million Mg capacity. Opened in 1960, no modification since May 30,
1991.

Status: In compliance. No unapproved equipment was observed.

II.B Requirements and Limitations

II.B.1 Conditions on MSW Landfill (Landfill).

II.B.1.a Condition:

(a) The permittee shall calculate a nonmethane organic compounds (NMOC) emission rate for the landfill
using the procedures specified in monitoring. The NMOC emission rate shall be recalculated annually,
except as provided in paragraph (b)(1)(i) of reporting.

(1) If the calculated NMOC emission rate is less than 50 megagrams per year, the permittee shall:

(i) Submit an annual emission report to the Director, except as provided for in paragraph (b)(1)(i) of
reporting; and

(ii) Recalculate the NMOC emission rate annually using the procedures specified in (a) of monitoring
until such time as the calculated NMOC emission rate is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams per year,
or the landfill is closed.

(A) If the NMOC emission rate, upon recalculation required in paragraph (a)(1)(ii), is equal to or greater
than 50 megagrams per year, the permittee shall install a collection and control system in compliance with
40 CFR 60.752(b)(2).
11
(B) If the landfill is permanently closed, a closure notification shall be submitted to the Director as
provided for in (d) of reporting.

(2) If the calculated NMOC emission rate is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams per year, the permittee
shall:

(i) Submit a collection and control system design plan prepared by a professional engineer to the Director
within 1 year:

(A) The collection and control system as described in the plan shall meet the design requirements of
paragraph 40 CFR 60.752(b)(2)(ii).

(B) The collection and control system design plan shall include any alternatives to the operational
standards, test methods, procedures, compliance measures, monitoring, recordkeeping or reporting
provisions of 40 CFR 60.753 through 60.758 proposed by the permittee.

(C) The collection and control system design plan shall either conform with specifications for active
collection systems in 40 CFR 60.759 or include a demonstration to the Director's satisfaction of the
sufficiency of the alternative provisions to 40 CFR 60.759.

(ii) The permittee shall install a collection and control system capable of meeting emissions standards in
R307-221 within 30 months of the date when the landfill has an emission rate of NMOC of 50
megagrams per year or more.

(b) When the MSW landfill is closed, the permittee is no longer subject to the requirement to maintain an
operating permit under 40 CFR 70 for the landfill if the landfill is not otherwise subject to the
requirements of either 40 CFR 70 and if either of the following conditions are met:

(1) The landfill was never subject to the requirement for a control system under paragraph (a)(2); or

(2) The permittee meets the conditions for control system removal specified in 40 CFR 60.752(b)(2)(v).
[Origin: 40 CFR 60, Subparts Cc and WWW, R307-221]. [40 CFR 60.752(b), 40 CFR 60.752(d),
R307-221]

II.B.1.a.1 Monitoring:

The permittee shall monitor the NMOC emission rate by using the equations in (a) and following
the three tier process outlined in (b), (c), and (d).

(a) The permittee shall calculate the NMOC emission rate using either the equation provided in
paragraph (a)(1) or the equation provided in paragraph (a)(2). Both equations may be used if the
actual year to year solid waste acceptance rate is known, as specified in paragraph (a)(1) for part
of the life of the landfill and the actual year to year solid waste acceptance rate is unknown, as
specified in paragraph (a)(2), for part of the life of the landfill. The values to be used in both
equations are 0.05 per year for k, 170 cubic meters per megagram for Lo, and 4,000 parts per
million by volume as hexane for the CNMOC. For landfills located in geographical areas with a
thirty-year annual average precipitation of less than 25 inches, as measured at the nearest
representative official meteorological site, the k value to be used is 0.02 per year.

12
(1) The following equation shall be used if the actual year to year solid waste acceptance rate
is known.

MNMOC = Sum (2 k Lo Mi (e-kti)(CNMOC)(3.6x10-9)) of i = 1 through n

where,

MNMOC = Total NMOC emission rate from the landfill, megagrams per year
k = methane generation rate constant, per year-1
Lo = methane generation potential, cubic meters per megagram solid waste
Mi = mass of solid waste in the ith section, megagrams
ti = age of the ith section, years
CNMOC = concentration of NMOC, parts per million by volume as hexane
3.6 X 10-9 = conversion factor

The mass of nondegradable solid waste may be subtracted from the total mass of solid waste in a
particular section of the landfill when calculating the value for Mi if documentation of the nature
and amount of such wastes is maintained.

(2) The following equation shall be used if the actual year to year solid waste acceptance rate
is unknown.

MNMOC = 2Lo R (e-kc – e-kt) (CNMOC) (3.6 X 10-9 )

Where:

MNMOC = mass emission rate of NMOC, megagrams per year
Lo = methane generation potential, cubic meters per megagram solid waste
R = average annual acceptance rate, megagrams per year
k = methane generation rate constant, per year
t = age of landfill, years
CNMOC = concentration of NMOC, parts per million by volume as hexane
c = time since closure, years; for active landfill c = O and e-kc = 1
3.6 10 9=conversion factor

The mass of nondegradable solid waste may be subtracted from the total mass of solid waste in a
particular section of the landfill when calculating the value of R, if documentation of the nature
and amount of such wastes is maintained.

(b) Tier 1. The permittee shall compare the calculated NMOC mass emission rate to the standard
of 50 megagrams per year.

(1) If the NMOC emission rate calculated in (a) is less than 50 megagrams per year, then
the permittee shall submit an emission rate report as provided in paragraph (b)(1) of
reporting, and shall recalculate the NMOC mass emission rate annually as required under
paragraph (a)(1) of this condition.

(2) If the calculated NMOC emission rate is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams per
year, then the permittee shall either comply with paragraph (a)(2) of this condition, or
determine a site specific NMOC concentration and recalculate the NMOC emission rate
using the procedures provided in (c).
13
(c) Tier 2. The permittee shall determine the NMOC concentration using the following sampling
procedure. The permittee shall install at least two sample probes per hectare of landfill surface
that has retained waste for at least 2 years. If the landfill is larger than 25 hectares in area, only 50
samples are required. The sample probes should be located to avoid known areas of
nondegradable solid waste. The permittee shall collect and analyze one sample of landfill gas
from each probe to determine the NMOC concentration using Method 25 or 25C of Appendix A
of 40 CFR 60. Method 18 of Appendix A of 40 CFR 60 may be used to analyze the samples
collected by the Method 25 or 25C sampling procedure. Taking composite samples from different
probes into a single cylinder is allowed; however, equal sample volumes must be taken from each
probe. For each composite, the sampling rate, collection times, beginning and ending cylinder
vacuums, or alternative volume measurements must be recorded to verify that composite volumes
are equal. Composite sample volumes should not be less than one liter unless evidence can be
provided to substantiate the accuracy of smaller volumes. Terminate compositing before the
cylinder approaches ambient pressure where measurement accuracy diminishes. If using Method
18, the permittee must identify all compounds in the sample and, as a minimum, test for those
compounds published in the most recent Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors (AP 42),
minus carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and mercury. As a minimum, the instrument must be
calibrated for each of the compounds on the list. Convert the concentration of each Method 18
compound to CNMOC as hexane by multiplying by the ratio of its carbon atoms divided by six.
If more than the required number of samples are taken, all samples must be used in the analysis.
The permittee must divide the NMOC concentration from Method 25 or 25C of Appendix A of
40 CFR 60 by six to convert from CNMOC as carbon to CNMOC as hexane. If the landfill has an
active or passive gas removal system in place, Method 25 or 25C samples may be collected from
these systems instead of surface probes provided the removal system can be shown to provide
sampling as representative as the two sampling probe per hectare requirement. For active
collection systems, samples may be collected from the common header pipe before the gas
moving or condensate removal equipment. For these systems, a minimum of three samples must
be collected from the header pipe.

(1) The permittee shall recalculate the NMOC mass emission rate using the equations
provided in (a) and using the average NMOC concentration from the collected samples
instead of the default value in the equations provided in (a).

(2) If the resulting mass emission rate calculated using the site specific NMOC
concentration is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams per year, then the permittee shall
either comply with paragraph (a)(2) of this condition, or determine the site specific
methane generation rate constant and recalculate the NMOC emission rate using the site
specific methane generation rate using the procedure specified in (d).

(3) If the resulting NMOC mass emission rate is less than 50 megagrams per year, the
permittee shall submit a periodic estimate of the emission rate report as provided in
paragraph (b)(1) of reporting and retest the site specific NMOC concentration every 5
years using the methods specified in monitoring.

(d) Tier 3. The site specific methane generation rate constant shall be determined using the
procedures provided in Method 2E of appendix A of 40 CFR 60. The permittee shall estimate the
NMOC mass emission rate using equations in (a) and using a site specific methane generation
rate constant k, and the site specific NMOC concentration as determined in (c) instead of the
default values provided in (a). The permittee shall compare the resulting NMOC mass emission
rate to the standard of 50 megagrams per year.

14
(1) If the NMOC mass emission rate as calculated using the site specific methane
generation rate and concentration of NMOC is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams per
year, the permittee shall comply with paragraph (a)(2) of this condition.

(2) If the NMOC mass emission rate is less than 50 megagrams per year, then the
permittee shall submit a periodic emission rate report as provided in paragraph (b)(1) of
reporting and shall recalculate the NMOC mass emission rate annually, as provided in
paragraph (a)(1) of reporting using the equations in (a) and using the site specific
methane generation rate constant and NMOC concentration obtained in (c). The
calculation of the methane generation rate constant is performed only once, and the value
obtained from this test shall be used in all subsequent annual NMOC emission rate
calculations.

emission rate calculated using the formula and procedures provided in monitoring.

(i) If the estimated NMOC emission rate as reported in the annual report to the Director is
less than 50 megagrams per year in each of the next 5 consecutive years, the permittee
may elect to submit an estimate of the NMOC emission rate for the next 5 year period in
lieu of the annual report. This estimate shall include the current amount of solid waste in
15
place and the estimated waste acceptance rate for each year of the 5 years for which an
NMOC emission rate is estimated. All data and calculations upon which this estimate is
based shall be provided to the Director. This estimate shall be revised at least once every 5
years. If the actual waste acceptance rate exceeds the estimated waste acceptance rate in
any year reported in the 5 year estimate, a revised 5 year estimate shall be submitted to the
Director. The revised estimate shall cover the 5 year period beginning with the year in
which the actual waste acceptance rate exceeded the estimated waste acceptance rate.

(2) The NMOC emission rate report shall include all the data, calculations, sample reports and
measurements used to estimate the annual or 5 year emissions.

(c) Each permittee subject to the provisions of paragraph (a)(2)(i) of this condition shall submit a
collection and control system design plan to the Director within 1 year of the first report required
under (b) in which the emission rate equals or exceeds 50 megagrams per year, except as follows:

(1) If the permittee elects to recalculate the NMOC emission rate after Tier 2 NMOC sampling
and analysis as provided in (c) of monitoring and the resulting rate is less than 50 megagrams
per year, annual periodic reporting shall be resumed, using the Tier 2 determined site specific
NMOC concentration, until the calculated emission rate is equal to or greater than 50
megagrams per year or the landfill is closed. The revised NMOC emission rate report, with the
recalculated emission rate based on NMOC sampling and analysis, shall be submitted within
180 days of the first calculated exceedance of 50 megagrams per year.

(2) If the permittee elects to recalculate the NMOC emission rate after determining a site
specific methane generation rate constant (k), as provided in Tier 3 in (d) of monitoring, and
the resulting NMOC emission rate is less than 50 Mg/yr., annual periodic reporting shall be
resumed. The resulting site specific methane generation rate constant (k) shall be used in the
emission rate calculation until such time as the emissions rate calculation results in an
exceedance. The revised NMOC emission rate report based on the provisions of (d) of
monitoring and the resulting site specific methane generation rate constant (k) shall be
submitted to the Director within 1 year of the first calculated emission rate exceeding 50
megagrams per year.

(d) Each permittee of a landfill shall submit a closure report to the Director within 30 days of
waste acceptance cessation. The Director may request additional information as may be necessary
to verify that permanent closure has taken place in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR
258.60. If a closure report has been submitted to the Director, no additional wastes may be placed
into the landfill without filing a notification of modification as described under 40 CFR
60.7(a)(4).

(e) The permittee shall notify the Director of the awarding of contracts for the construction of the
collection and control system or the order to purchase components for the system. This
notification shall be submitted within 18 months after reporting an NMOC emission equal to or
