These products go through a separator where the oil and any water products are sent to storage tanks and the gas is used to power equipment on site (pump jack engine, tank heater, separator, flare, combustor, etc.) Any remaining gas is sent to a pipeline that feeds a local gas plant. The oil and process water in the storage tanks is loaded into tanker trucks and hauled off-site for processing and disposal. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS: Utah Administrative Code (UAC) R307-500 Series for the Oil and Gas Industry, and UAC R307-201: Emission Standards: General Emission Standards; and UAC R307-150: Emission Inventories. Federal Subpart: OOOO. SOURCE EVALUATION: Site Type: PBR – Uncontrolled Voluntarily Controlled by Flare, Site has Line Power. DOGM current 12 month rolling production is: 5,223. Utah Statute R307-506 requires a source with throughput / + # ) * 0 ' " - 2 greater than 8,000 BBLs to have controls. REGISTERED EQUIPMENT: Tanks, Pneumatics General Provisions Visible emissions are within the following opacity limits: VOC Control Devices and Gasoline engines 0%, Diesel engines 20%, Natural Gas Engines and Boilers, Treater burners & Tank burners 10%, Mobile source dust 10%. [R307-201-3] In Compliance. No visible emissions were observed at the time of inspection. VOC emissions are, at all times, minimized as reasonably practicable by equipment design, maintenance and operation practices. [R307-501-4(1)] In Compliance. VOC emissions found properly minimized and controlled by operator at the time of inspection. All natural gas-driven pneumatic controllers are in compliance with 40CFR 60.5390 or 60.5390a as applicable. Tagging and record keeping requirements are not required. [R307-502-4] In Compliance. No continuous bleed pneumatic controllers were found on-site at the time of inspection. Associated Gas Flares Any flare has an operational auto-igniter and a continuously burning pilot flame. [R307-503-4] In Compliance. Combustor on-site found with operational auto-igniter and pilot flame installed and in good working order at the time of inspection. Flare inlet lines are equipped with a fire arrestor, pressure gauge, inlet pressure regulating valve and other components according to the engineering design, the manufacturers specifications or good practices for safety and emissions control. [R307-501-4(1)]] In Compliance. Flare inlet lines found properly engineered at the time of inspection. Tank Truck Loading Truck loading is done by bottom filling or submerged fill pipe [R307-504(1)] In Compliance. Truck loading found properly engineered at the time of inspection. Storage Vessels Thief hatches are kept closed and latched. [R307-506-4(1)] In Compliance. Thief hatches found closed and latched at the time of inspection. 3 Vessel Vent Components: (valves, unions, pressure relief devices, etc.) are leak-free, in good repair, and working as intended. (Tank covers are leak free and form a continuous seal.). [R307-501-4] In Compliance. No emission leaks were detected at the time of inspection. Associated Gas Flaring Associated gas is routed to a process unit for combustion, a sales pipeline or an operating VOC control device, except in an emergency. An emergency release is unanticipated, temporary, infrequent, unavoidable, =24 hrs. and is not due to operator negligence. Low pressure gas from working loss, breathing loss and oil flashing is not "associated gas". [R307-511-4(1)] In Compliance. Associated gas found properly routed at the time of inspection. Emission Inventory An emissions inventory has been submitted within the past three years. [R307-150-9(1)] In Compliance. Emissions inventory was found properly submitted at the time of inspection. Oil and Gas Industry Registration Requirement The source is registered with the DAQ. [R307-505-3(3)] In Compliance. Source found properly registered at the time of inspection. Engines that were installed, relocated or modified after January 1, 2016 are required to show compliance with Table 1 of R307-510-4 through a performance test evaluation that is reviewed by the DAQ and found to be in compliance. [R307-510-4(1)] In Compliance. Source uses line power and has no engines on-site. PREVIOUS ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS: None in the past 5 years. COMPLIANCE STATUS & RECOMMENDATIONS: In regards to the site, the overall status is: In Compliance. RECOMMENDATION FOR NEXT INSPECTION: Recommend to decrease inspection frequency. ATTACHMENTS: None.
