Dear Mr. Bird:
'I
DIVISION OF AIR
The purpose of this letter is to submit the enclosed request for a modification of the
Tltle V permit issued to Tooele Army Depot (TEAD) specific to the operation of the
deactivation furnace. TEAD's deactivation furnace is converting the system from diesel
fuel usage to natural gas. This modification will result in several key emission category
reductions from the current fuel oil system. The table below highlights these changes by
using the AP42 emissions factors for the new Potential to Emit (PTE).

TEAD has included two attachments providing more details on the PTE calculations
for both the burners and the propellant found in Attachments "Burner PTE" and
"Propellant PTE". These PTE calculations were derived separately forthe burners and
the propellantto more accurately depict the emission sources. Finally, we have included
Utah Division of AirQualityForms3and23with updateddatathatcorrespondswith the
new natural gas burners.
Should you have any questions or require any additional information regarding this
matter, please contact Lonnie Brown of my staff at [phone].
REVIEWEDInitials:Date: February 4, 2025 Compliance Status: OK File # 11594 (B2)Comment:See inspection memo and Subpart EEE, regarding NG installation before permit issued.
I certify under penalty of law that this document and all attachmenb were prepared
under my direction or supervision according to a system designed to assure that quality
personnel properly gather and evaluate the information submitted. Based on my inquiry

This tool is intended to be used for estimating emissions (potential to emit). Emission factors used come primarily from
EPA AP42 (www.epa.govlttnlchief /ap42/index.html). lf you have emissions data from the boiler manufacturer, it is
recommended you use that information; the spreadsheet is set up to allow you to input your own data.
la) On the Boilers-furnoces spreadsheet/tab, begin by inputting data about each of your boilers in the blue section titled "lnput
boiler data." Samole data has been included.
tb) lf you are located in Johnson or Wyandotte County, select "Yes" using the drop-down menu in row 3. Otherwise, select
"No."
tc)On the "Boiler or furnace type," you can select one of the types already included in the drop-down menu, or you can use
manufacturer's data for your specific boiler, which is explained below in item #1d. lf you are using the included emission
factors and have a fuel oil-fired boiler, you do have the option of changing the sulfur content on the Em Foctors&doto
spreadsheet/tab.
Id) This spreadsheet is set up to allow you to input your own emission factors for up to three different boilers (using
manufacturer's data). To do this, go to the Em Foctors&doto spreadsheet/tab. You will change the information in the
upper green section (under "Emission factor sources"). Emission factors will need to be entered in lbs/MMBTU. The lower
green section will be automatically completed.
le) lf you have multiple boilers of a single type, use the "f of units" column on the Borlers-furnaces spreadsheet/tab to include
that number.
lf you know your boiler size in only boiler horsepower, use the "Size converter" table below the "Emission data" section.
Once you have determined the size of your boiler in MMBTU/hr heat input, enter that in the "Boiler size (MMBTU/hr)"
column.
1f)
2al ln the "Emission data (results)" section, which is in grey, you can review the PTE for each boiler and compare it to the
permitting thresholds, which are located below that section of the table.
2b) The "Emission data (results)" is the PTE for operation with no waste feed. Waste feed emissions is calculated seperately
utilizing MIDAS data dependent on waste being feed.
You can review the emission and conversion factors used on the "Em Factors&data" spreadsheet/tab. Remember, if you
have emission data from the boiler manufacturer, it is recommended you use that information.
HP = horsepower
BTU/hr = british thermal unit/hour
MBTU/hr = one thousand british thermal unit/hour
