I.5 At all times, including periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction, owners and operators shall, to the extent practicable, maintain and operate any equipment approved under this AO, 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 Director which may include, but is not limited to, monitoring results, opacity observations, review of operating and maintenance procedures, and inspection of the source. All maintenance performed on equipment authorized by this AO shall be recorded. [R307-401-4]
I.6 The owner/operator shall comply with UAC R307-107. General Requirements: Breakdowns. [R307-107]
I.7 The owner/operator shall comply with UAC R307-150 Series. Emission Inventories. [R307-150] Status: In Compliance. No limits were exceeded, and no breakdowns have occurred. The source submitted their 2023 Emission Inventory by the April 15, 2024, deadline. See the attachments section for additional information.
Section II: SPECIAL PROVISIONS
II.A The approved installations shall consist of the following equipment:
II.A.1 Milk Processing Plant
II.A.2 One (1) Boiler NSPS applicability: Subpart Dc MACT applicability: Subpart JJJJJJ Fuel: Natural Gas, Diesel Rating: 21.382 MMBtu/hr
II.A.3 One (1) Boiler MACT Applicability: Subpart JJJJJJ Fuel: Natural Gas, Diesel Rating: 16.737 MMBtu/hr *Listed for informational purposes, boiler was installed in 1967 and is a Grandfathered unit.
Status: In Compliance. No unapproved equipment was observed at the time of inspection.
Both boilers onsite had the same rating as listed above.

II.B Requirements and Limitations
II.B.1 Site Wide Requirements II.B.1.a The owner/operator shall not allow visible emissions to exceed 10% opacity from any stationary point or fugitive emission source on site. [R307-401-8] II.B.1.a.1 Opacity observations of emissions from stationary sources shall be conducted in accordance with 40 CFR 60.11(b) and 40 CFR 60, Appendix A, Method 9. [40 CFR 60 Subpart A, R307-401-8] Status: In Compliance. No visible emissions were observed at the time of inspection. See the attached VEO form for additional information. II.B.1.b The owner/operator shall use natural gas as a primary fuel and diesel fuel (#2 fuel oil) as a backup fuel in the boilers. Diesel fuel shall only be used in the event there is an interruption in the supply of natural gas, or for periodic maintenance of the boilers. [R307-401-8] Status: In Compliance. Natural gas is the primary fuel source utilized in the boilers. Diesel fuel is only used in the case of curtailment of natural gas. Diesel fuel has not operated in the boilers within the last 2 years. II.B.1.c The sulfur content of any fuel oil or diesel burned shall not exceed 0.5 percent by weight for diesel fuels consumed in all equipment. [R307-401-8] II.B.1.c.1 The sulfur content shall be determined by ASTM Method D-4294-89 or approved equivalent. Certification of fuels shall be either by the owner/operator's own testing or test reports from the fuel marketer. [R307-401-8] Status: In Compliance. According to a fuel invoice viewed at the time of inspection, the diesel fuel purchased and utilized onsite is classified as ULSD.

inspection. The diesel that is available for use in the boilers is classified as ULSD according to a fuel
invoice from RelaDyne viewed onsite at the time of inspection. Source was notified of requirements of
stack testing should they exceed 48 hours of diesel fuel operation, as well as installing a continuous
emission monitoring system (CEMS) should they exceed that limit to meet the established emission
limits within Subpart JJJJJJ.
AREA SOURCE RULES EVALUATION:
The following Area Source Rules were evaluated during this inspection:
Emission Standards: Sulfur Content of Fuels [R307-203]
Status: In Compliance. According to a fuel invoice viewed at the time of inspection, the diesel fuel
purchased and utilized onsite is classified as ULSD.
