II.B.12.a The owner/operator shall comply with the applicable requirements in 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ
and 40 CFR 60 Subpart IIII for all stationary engines. An engine is considered a stationary
engine if the engine meets the definition of "stationary reciprocating internal combustion engine
(RICE)" in 40 CFR 63.6675 or "stationary internal combustion engine" in 40 CFR 60.4219. In
determining whether an engine is considered a stationary engine, the time the engine remains at a
location shall be considered. 40 CFR 1068.30 states that an engine is a stationary engine if:
A. The engine remains at a location for more than 12 consecutive months.
B. The engine remains at a seasonal source during the full annual operating period
of the seasonal source. A seasonal source is a stationary source that remains in a
single location on a permanent basis (i.e., at least two (2) years) and that
operates at that single location approximately three (3) months (or more) each
year.
[40 CFR 60 Subpart IIII, 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ, R307-401-8]
II.B.12.b The owner/operator shall not allow visible emissions from any stationary diesel-fired engine
subject to this AO to exceed 20 percent opacity. [R307-201-3, R307-305-3, R307-401-8]

TO: 16200: Southwest Grading and Paving, LLC- Portable Aggregate Source - (N162000001)
THROUGH: Alan Humpherys, Minor NSR Manager – Air Quality
FROM: Dungan Adams, Environmental Engineer – Air Quality
DATE: May 8, 2024
SUBJECT: Response to Public Comment for 16200: Southwest Grading and Paving, LLC- Portable
Aggregate Source
An Intent to Approve (ITA) for Southwest Grading and Paving, LLC - Portable Aggregate Source was
proposed with a public comment period from April 7, 2024, through May 7, 2024. One commenter made
several comments on the proposed Approval Order (AO) [DAQE- IN162000001-24]. The comments are
attached to this memo.
The Division of Air Quality (DAQ) considered the received comments as required by Utah
Administrative Code (UAC) Rule R307-401-7(3) and provided the following responses:
Comment #1
A comment was received requesting the permit be denied due to Southwest Grading and Paving
(Southwest) trespassing on the Utah Iron property that it does not own or lease.
DAQ Response
To operate at any location, a portable source must submit a notice of temporary relocation and obtain a
temporary relocation authorization or approval letter under UAC Rule R307-401-17. See also ITA,
Condition II.B.1.a. A notice of temporary relocation must contain the exact location of the temporary site
as well as the location of the closest businesses or properties. See id., Condition II.B.1.a.1. The temporary
relocation authorization is issued only after the source’s generic AO has been approved. Southwest’s
portable AO has not yet been approved, and the company cannot yet submit temporary relocation
authorization. The ITA for Southwest is for a generic portable AO which does not specify the location of
operation. Therefore, property ownership does not affect Southwest’s ability to obtain a generic portable
AO. DAQ does not have the authority to determine property rights. It is the responsibility of the source to
obtain the necessary authorizations to operate in a specific location, whether through a lease or other
permission to operate. The commenter did not provide the authority that DAQ has to deny a permit due to
property rights.

No changes were made as a result of this comment.
Comment #2
A comment was received requesting the permit be denied due to Southwest operating beyond the scope of
its Bureau of Land Management (BLM) permit. The requester asked the DAQ to contact the Cedar City
BLM office to verify Southwest’s federal permit status.
DAQ Response
Southwest’s AO has not been approved, and therefore, they are not permitted to operate at any specific
location at this time. The ITA for Southwest is for a generic portable AO which does not specify the
location of operation. See also the DAQ Response to Comment #1. The conditions and requirements of
Southwest’s BLM permit do not affect the applicant's ability to obtain a generic portable AO. The BLM
and DAQ have separate and distinct authorities. The DAQ is responsible for determining the impact of
the proposed source’s emissions of air pollutants and approving or denying the source’s application for a
permit. The BLM is responsible for issuing permits to allow for mineral extraction on BLM-managed
lands. The DAQ cannot interfere with the BLM’s regulatory authority. The ITA is within DAQ’s
authority to issue because it meets all the requirements of the Clean Air Act and state law. The
commenter failed to explain how the BLM and DAQ share authority.
No changes were made as a result of this comment.
Comment #3
A comment was received requesting confirmation that Southwest’s project meets the qualification of a
portable source and stating that Southwest has commenced construction and poured concrete pads to
make the operation permanent.
DAQ Response
Under UAC Rule R307-401-17, once a source receives its temporary relocation authorization, it shall not
operate at the same location for more than 180 working days or 365 consecutive days. If a temporary
relocation is expected to exceed 180 working days, the source shall submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) for a
permanent source. Southwest currently meets the qualifications of a portable source under this definition.
Southwest has not been permitted to operate at any location as it has not yet received its AO and a
temporary relocation authorization. Sources may not commence construction until they have received an
AO. DAQ compliance will evaluate whether Southwest has commenced construction without prior
approval from the Director and begin an enforcement action with potential penalties for noncompliance if
warranted. However, early construction does not necessarily disqualify the source from receiving an AO.
No changes were made as a result of this comment.
Comment #4
A comment was received requesting the DAQ confirm Southwest is complying with a fugitive dust
control plan (FDCP) and conducting proper watering operations.
DAQ Response
Under UAC Rule R307-309-3, a FDCP is required for projects 1/4 acre or larger, and located in Cache,
Box Elder, Weber, Davis, Salt Lake, Tooele, or Utah County. In addition, Condition II.B.5.a of the ITA
requires a source to submit and comply with a FDCP for each temporary relocation. Southwest does not
need to comply with this requirement at this time because its generic portable AO has not yet been
DAQE-MN162000001-24
Page 3
approved and does not permit operation at a specific location. Once Southwest has submitted a temporary
relocation authorization, the DAQ will require Southwest to submit and comply with a FDCP. If
Southwest commences construction and operation without prior authorization from DAQ, this will be
investigated by DAQ compliance and appropriately addressed through DAQ compliance process.
No changes were made as a result of this comment.

General Description
Bedrock Sand & Gravel LLC has requested an AO for a portable source. This AO is issued to
Bedrock Sand & Gravel LLC for the purpose of operating a portable source that belongs to the
nonmetallic mineral processing industry, including aggregate, concrete, and hot mix asphalt
plants. The plants subject to this AO shall be temporarily operated for a period of not more than
180 working days at any location. A relocation shall not exceed 365 consecutive days at any
location in the State of Utah.
Prior to commencement of operation at a location, the owner/operator shall submit a Notice of
Temporary Relocation to the Director and obtain a Temporary Relocation Approval Letter. If the
owner/operator operates at a location in compliance with the AO, the Notice of Temporary
Relocation, and the Temporary Relocation Approval Letter, dispersion modeling results have
determined that there will be no adverse impacts on air quality at the nearest residence or
commercial establishment.
Compliance with the opacity limits and operating practices contained in the conditions of the AO
shall be considered as application of BACT. The emission control measures required in the
conditions of this AO shall apply to all of the locations at which the source approved by this AO
operates. The source may be required to adopt additional measures for controlling emissions to
address location-specific concerns.
This AO limits the source to emissions that are below the major source threshold, making it a
"Synthetic Minor" source.

Project Description
The owner/operator has requested an AO for a portable source. The portable source belongs to the
nonmetallic mineral processing industry, including aggregate processing plants, concrete batch
plants, hot mix asphalt plants, and stationary diesel-fired engines.
EMISSION IMPACT ANALYSIS
DAQ modeled a generic aggregate site to determine the appropriate operating conditions for this AO. Ambient
air quality impacts are smaller in the daytime hours than in the nighttime hours. To minimize impacts, the
times of operation were limited. Sources will be allowed to operate from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. A permit
condition is included in this AO to reflect the time restriction of operation. More stringent times of operation
may be included in different areas of the State. If a source wants to operate outside these times, the source
must submit modeling with the temporary relocation letter to demonstrate that the NAAQS are met. [Last

Water sprays will control the emissions from crushers, screens, conveyors, feeders, and stackers.
Sprays will operate as needed to comply with the above opacity limits.
B. Concrete Batch Plants
Fabric filters will control the emissions from concrete batch plants, the batching operations, and
associated silos. The fabric filters will reduce visible emissions to 7% opacity or less. Any
boiler/water heater used will use natural gas and/or propane as fuel. Any boiler/water heater shall
be limited to 10% opacity.
C. Hot Mix Asphalt Plants
The hot mix asphalt plants may use propane, natural gas, fuel oil, on-specification used oil or any
combination of these fuels as fuel. A baghouse will control the emissions from the drum mixer.
The baghouse will reduce visible emissions to 10% opacity or less. In addition, the baghouse will
reduce the concentration of PM10 in the exhaust to 0.024 grains per dscf or less. To ensure the
baghouse is operating correctly, the baghouse pressure drop shall be between 3 and 7 inches of
water column. The pressure gauge shall measure the pressure drop in 1-inch water column
increments or less.
D. Stationary Diesel-Fired Engines
The NSR Section recommends the following as BACT for stationary diesel engines:
1. Proper engine tuning and maintenance
2. Visible emissions shall be 20% opacity or less

REVIEWER COMMENTS
1. Comment regarding NSPS and MACT Applicability:
NSPS
40 CFR 60 Subpart IIII applies to "owner and operators of stationary CI ICE that commence
construction after July 11, 2005". Because the source operates a stationary CI ICE manufactured
after 2005, NSPS Subpart IIII applies to the source.
40 CFR 60 Subpart I applies to sources who operate hot mix asphalt facilities constructed after June
11, 1973. Because the source operates a hot mix asphalt facility using this portable AO, NSPS
Subpart I applies to the source.
40 CFR 60 Subpart OOO applies to each crusher, screening operation, and belt conveyor in fixed or
portable nonmetallic mineral processing plant manufactured after August 31, 1983. If the source
decides to operate any of this equipment using this portable AO, Subpart OOO will apply to the
source.
MACT
40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ applies to owners and operators of a RICE at any area source of HAP
emissions. Because this source operates a RICE at a site(s) that are considered area sources, MACT
Subpart ZZZZ applies to this source. [Last updated February 29, 2024]
2. Comment regarding Title V Applicability:
Title V of the 1990 Clean Air Act (Title V) applies to the following:
1. Any major source
2. Any source subject to a standard, limitation, or other requirement under Section 111 of the Act,
Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources;
3. Any source subject to a standard or other requirement under Section 112 of the Act, Hazardous
Air Pollutants.
4. Any Title IV affected source.
The portable equipment in this AO is not part of a major source or a Title IV source, and is not
subject to 40 CFR 61 requirements, but the facility is subject to 40 CFR 60 NSPS Subpart I and
OOO requirements. Therefore, Title V applies to the source where this portable equipment operates
[Last updated February 29, 2024]

4. Comment regarding Reporting:
R307-401-17 requires that "records of the working days at each site, consecutive days at each site,
and actual production rate shall be submitted to the director at the end of each 180 calendar days."
The owner/operator must submit this information to be in compliance with R307-401-17. [Last
updated February 29, 2024]
5. Comment regarding Hot Mix Asphalt Plant Condensable PM Emissions:
Condensable PM emissions shall not be used for compliance demonstration during stack testing;
however, condensable PM emissions shall be used for inventory purposes. There are several reasons
condensable PM emissions will not be used for compliance demonstration.
A. NSPS Subpart I does not limit condensable PM emissions. DAQ is unaware of any other
regulation that limits PM emissions, including condensable PM emissions, from hot mix asphalt
plants. Since federal regulations only limit filterable PM emissions, only filterable PM emissions
will be used for compliance demonstration.
B. The control device used to control PM emissions from a hot mix asphalt plant is a baghouse. A
baghouse is unable to control condensable PM emissions from a hot mix asphalt plant. One of the
purposes of a stack test is to ensure the control device is operating correctly. Since the baghouse can
only control filterable PM emissions, only filterable PM emissions will be used for compliance
demonstration.
C. The majority of uncontrolled emissions from a hot mix asphalt plant is filterable emissions.
Based on AP-42, an uncontrolled 400 tph hot mix asphalt plant will emit 11,200 pounds of filterable
PM per hour and 7.8 pounds of condensable PM per hour. The amount of uncontrolled filterable PM
emissions is over 1,400 times higher than the condensable PM emissions. Since the uncontrolled
filterable PM emissions are so high, only filterable PM emissions will be tested for compliance
demonstration.
D. Condensable PM emissions can vary depending on the fuel being combusted, the burner, the
Engineer Review N162000001: Southwest Grading and Paving, LLC- Portable Aggregate Source
February 29, 2024
Page 19
material being fed into the hot mix asphalt plant, and other factors. It is inappropriate to put a single
limit in a permit that could apply to different locations, different plants, different materials, and
different fuels. Due to the high variability of these factors, condensable emissions will not be used
for compliance demonstration for this portable source.
Due to the reasons above, condensable PM emissions will not be tested for compliance
demonstration; however, condensable PM emissions will be used for inventory purposes. The
Director may require an emissions inventory at any time according to R307-150-1(4). Because this
source is a Title V area source, this source is required to pay Title V fees according to R307-415-9.
Both filterable and condensable PM emissions are considered chargeable pollutants; therefore, the
owner/operator must test for condensable PM emissions for inventory purposes. [Last updated

6. Comment regarding Definition of Stationary Engines:
The definition of stationary internal combustion engine in NSPS Subpart IIII (40 CFR 60.4219) is as
follows:
Stationary internal combustion engine means any internal combustion engine, except combustion
turbines, that converts heat energy into mechanical work and is not mobile. Stationary ICE differ
from mobile ICE in that a stationary internal combustion engine is not a nonroad engine as defined
at 40 CFR 1068.30 (excluding paragraph (2)(ii) of that definition), and is not used to propel a motor
vehicle, aircraft, or a vehicle used solely for competition. Stationary ICE include reciprocating ICE,
rotary ICE, and other ICE, except combustion turbines.
The definition of nonroad engine in 40 CFR 1068.30 is as follows:
Nonroad engine means:
(1) Except as discussed in paragraph (2) of this definition, a nonroad engine is an internal
combustion engine that meets any of the following criteria:
(i) It is (or will be) used in or on a piece of equipment that is self-propelled or serves a dual purpose
by both propelling itself and performing another function (such as garden tractors, off-highway
mobile cranes and bulldozers).
(ii) It is (or will be) used in or on a piece of equipment that is intended to be propelled while
performing its function (such as lawnmowers and string trimmers).
(iii) By itself or in or on a piece of equipment, it is portable or transportable, meaning designed to be
and capable of being carried or moved from one location to another. Indicia of transportability
include, but are not limited to, wheels, skids, carrying handles, dolly, trailer, or platform.
(2) An internal combustion engine is not a nonroad engine if it meets any of the following criteria:
(i) The engine is used to propel a motor vehicle, an aircraft, or equipment used solely for
competition.
(ii) The engine is regulated under 40 CFR part 60, (or otherwise regulated by a federal New Source
Performance Standard promulgated under section 111 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7411)). Note
that this criterion does not apply for engines meeting any of the criteria of paragraph (1) of this
definition that are voluntarily certified under 40 CFR part 60.
(iii) The engine otherwise included in paragraph (1)(iii) of this definition remains or will remain at a
Engineer Review N162000001: Southwest Grading and Paving, LLC- Portable Aggregate Source
February 29, 2024
Page 20
location for more than 12 consecutive months or a shorter period of time for an engine located at a
seasonal source. A location is any single site at a building, structure, facility, or installation. For any
engine (or engines) that replaces an engine at a location and that is intended to perform the same or
similar function as the engine replaced, include the time period of both engines in calculating the
consecutive time period. An engine located at a seasonal source is an engine that remains at a
seasonal source during the full annual operating period of the seasonal source. A seasonal source is a
stationary source that remains in a single location on a permanent basis (i.e., at least two years) and
that operates at that single location approximately three months (or more) each year. See §1068.31
for provisions that apply if the engine is removed from the location. [Last updated February 29,
2024]
7. Comment regarding Definition of Stationary Engines (Cont'd):
40 CFR 1068.31 has the following requirements:
(b) A stationary engine becomes a new nonroad engine if-
(1) It is used in an application that meets the criteria specified in paragraphs (1)(i) or (ii) in the
definition of "nonroad engine" in §1068.30.
(2) It meets the criteria specified in paragraph (1)(iii) of the definition of "nonroad engine" in
§1068.30 and is moved so that it fails to meet (or no longer meets) the criteria specified in paragraph
(2)(iii) in the definition of "nonroad engine" in §1068.30.
(c) A stationary engine does not become a new nonroad engine if it is moved but continues to meet
the criteria specified in paragraph (2)(iii) in the definition of "nonroad engine" in §1068.30 in its new
location. For example, a transportable engine that is used in a single specific location for 18 months
and is later moved to a second specific location where it will remain for at least 12 months is
considered to be a stationary engine in both locations. Note that for stationary engines that are
neither portable nor transportable in actual use, the residence-time restrictions in the definition of
"nonroad engine" generally do not apply.
(e) A nonroad engine ceases to be a nonroad engine and becomes a new stationary engine if-
(1) At any time, it meets the criteria specified in paragraph (2)(iii) in the definition of "nonroad
engine" in §1068.30. For example, a portable generator engine ceases to be a nonroad engine if it is
used or will be used in a single specific location for 12 months or longer. If we determine that an
engine will be or has been used in a single specific location for 12 months or longer, it ceased to be a
nonroad engine when it was placed in that location.
(2) It is otherwise regulated by a federal New Source Performance Standard promulgated under
section 111 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7411). [Last updated February 29, 2024]

BEST AVAILABLE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY ANALYSIS
UACR R307-401-6 requires the owner or operator of a new or altered source the degree of pollution control
for emissions, to include fugitive emissions and fugitive dust, is at least best available control technology
except as otherwise provided in these regulations.
BACT Analysis Methodology
This BACT analysis follows the procedure outlined in the New Source Review Workshop Manual, Ofϐice of Air
Quality Planning and Standards, US EPA, Draft - October 1990. The methodology described in the manual is
the “top-down” method and consists of ϐive basic steps:
Step 1 - Identify all control technologies;
Step 2 - Eliminate technically infeasible options;
Step 3 - Rank remaining technologies by control effectiveness;
Step 4 - Evaluate most effective controls and document results; and
Step 5 - Select BACT.
Portable Asphalt Plant BACT analysis
The emissions inventory for the Southwest Grading and Paving (SWG) portable asphalt plant identiϐies four
point sources of emissions as follows:
1. Asphalt Drum Mixer Dryer
2. Plant Load-out
3. Silo Filling
4. Diesel-ϐired Electrical Generator Engine
The plant load-out and the silo ϐilling only emit particulate matter and have PTE emissions much lower than 1
tpy. BACT analysis is not included for these insigniϐicant sources.
BACT analysis is included for the asphalt drum dryer emissions and for the diesel-ϐired generator emissions.
A. Asphalt Drum Mixer
The applicant has reviewed relevant control options, as well as previous BACT determinations. The
following control options were reviewed in order to make the following BACT determinations:
Fabric Filter Baghouse
Electrostatic Precipitator
Cyclone
Wet Scrubber
All of the listed technologies are deemed technically feasible for this application. Technical feasible
control options, in order the highest control efficiency to the lowest control efficiency base on PM
control are as follows:
1. Fabric Filter Baghouse (99 – 99.9% efficient) (EPA Fact Sheet EPA-452/F-03-025,
07/15/03)
2. Electrostatic Precipitator (99 – 99.9% efficient) (EPA Fact Sheet EPA-452/F-03-028,
07/15/03)
3. Cyclone (up to 99% efficient) (EPA Fact Sheet EPA-452/F-03-005, 07/15/03)
4. Wet Scrubber (70 – greater than 99% efficient) (EPA Fact Sheet EPA-452/F-03- 0017,
07/15/03)
The asphalt plant purchased by SWG is equipped with a fabric filter baghouse for the control of
PM/PM10/PM2.5 from the exhaust of the asphalt drum mixer. Because SWG proposes to use a
control technology that is equivalent to the highest control efficiency, no further economic analysis
is needed to complete the BACT analysis.
The control option selected has control technology and a control cost comparable to other recently
permitted similar sources and is capable of achieving the appropriate emissions standards.
Operating and maintaining a baghouse will constitute BACT for the asphalt drum mixer. All asphalt
drum mixer emissions are limited to 0.04 grains per dry standard cubic foot (gr/dscf) for
particulate and 20 percent opacity in accordance with 40 CFR 60, Subpart I.
The Portable baghouse will control process streams from the asphalt plant drum mixer. This
baghouse is sized to handle the exhaust asphalt plant. All exhaust air from the drum mixer will be
routed through the baghouse before being vented to the atmosphere. Based on other asphalt plants
this is believed to be the best option for a control device in terms of cost and efϐiciency for the
asphalt plant.
B. Diesel Generator
The SWG equipment for the portable asphalt site will include a 280 kW diesel generator. The diesel
engine will be EPA certified for compliance with the Tier 2 or Tier 3 emission limits for a stationary
emergency engine. The engine will be required to comply with the federal engine emission
standards found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart ZZZZ and/or NSPS emission limitations for stationary CI
ICE (40 CFR 60, Subpart IIII).
Due to the limited amount of emissions produced by the diesel engines and the lack of readily
available, cost effective add-on controls; add-on controls would be cost prohibitive. Therefore, the
Department determined proper operation and maintenance with no add-on controls would
constitute BACT for the diesel engines.
In addition, any stationary diesel engine would be required to comply with the federal engine
emission standards found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart ZZZZ and/or NSPS emission limitations for
stationary CI ICE (40 CFR 60, Subpart IIII).
C. Fugitive Emissions
SWG will take reasonable precautions to limit the fugitive emissions of airborne particulate matter
on haul roads, access roads, parking lots, and the general plant area. Reasonable precautions
include treating all unpaved portions of the haul roads, access roads, parking lots, or the general
plant area with water and/or chemical dust suppressant, as necessary. Using water and/or
chemical dust suppressant to comply with the reasonable precautions limitation will be considered
BACT.

Hi Keith,
The Utah Department of Air Quality (DAQ) has received your request for a Pre-NOI meeting. I have availability this
Thursday and Friday, as well as most days next week. Let me know what works best for you.
I would prefer to have the Pre-NOI meeting over Google Meet, but I can meet at our office located at 195 N 1950 W, Salt
Lake City, UT 84116.
If you have any specific questions, please send them to me ahead of our meeting so I can make sure to provide you with
the information you need. Otherwise, I will just go over the NOI process and what is required for a complete application.
Thanks,
Dungan

Hi Kellen and Diane,
Attached are the two forms (15b and 15c) that need to be filled out for the portable permit application. Once you have
received the Approval Order (AO), a temporary relocation form will need to be submitted. It might be a good idea to
submit this at the end of the public comment period so the relocation can be accepted right away once the AO has been
approved. Here is a link to the fees breakdown for generic permits and temporary relocations.
Here is a link to modeling guidance. The Emission Impact Assessment Guideline lists the modeling thresholds (as does
State Rule R307-410). The Modeling Protocol can be submitted to Dave Prey (dprey@utah.gov). Form 01b is BACT
guidance.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if there is any other information that would be helpful.
Thanks,
Dungan

Hi Alan,
After a Pre-NOI meeting a few weeks ago, this source sent over an application for a portable AO. Is there someone I need
to send the application to so the TEMPO site and ID can get set up?
Thanks,
Dungan
