Dear Ms. Coates:
Re: Compliance Advisory - TM Crushing, LLC, Utah Administrative Code (UAC)
R307-401, Approval Order (AO) DAQE-AN144460004-19,40 CFR Part63,
Subpart ZZZZ, Utah County
On July 27,2023, a representative of the Utah Division of Air Quality (DAQ) conducted an
inspection of TM Crushing Talons Cove located at9569 Mount Airey Drive, Eagle Mountain,
Utah. The DAQ observed a diesel-fired stationary generator engine powering operations
associated with the secondary crushing plant. During a previous inspection conducted on June 24,
202I, the DAQ observed that TM Crushing had been operating the same stationary generator
engine at the secondary crushing plant for more than ayear. TM Crushing was directed to either
add the generator engine to the AO or remove it no later than December 21,2021. Failure to
submit a Notice of lntent and receive an AO prior to operating the regulated equipment is a
potential violation of UAC R307-401 and condition I.3 of AO DAQE-AN144460004-19. Failure
to perform stack testing on applicable diesel-fueled generator engines may be in violation of 40
CFR Part 63 Subpart ZZZZ.
TM Crushing is required to comply with the above regulations. A written response to this letter is
required within ten (10) business days of receipt of this letter.
