Cache County I/M program requirements: Cache County was designated nonattainment for the 7
PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) on December 14, 2009 (74 FR 58688, 8
November 13, 2009). Accordingly, Cache County implemented control strategies to attain the 9
PM2.5 NAAQS. A motor vehicle emission inspection and maintenance (I/M) program was 10
identified by the PM2.5 State Implementation Plan (SIP) as a necessary control strategy to attain 11
the PM2.5 NAAQS as expeditiously as practicable. Therefore, pursuant to Utah Code Annotated 12
41-6a-1642, Cache County implemented an I/M program that complies with the minimum 13
requirements of 40 CFR Part 51 Subpart S. Cache County implemented its I/M program county-14
wide. This program was approved by EPA on October 9, 2015 (80 FR 54237 September 9, 15
2019). Parts A and F of Section X demonstrate compliance with 40 CFR Part 51 Subpart S for 16
Cache County. 17

Station/inspector Audits: Cache County’s I/M program will regularly audit all permitted 36
I/M inspectors and stations to ensure compliance with county I/M ordinances, 37
regulations, and policies. Particular attention will be given to identifying and correcting 38
any fraud or incompetence with respect to vehicle emissions inspections. Compliance 39
with recordkeeping, document security, analyzer maintenance, and program security 40
requirements will be scrutinized. The Cache County I/M program will have an active 41
covert compliance program to minimize potential fraudulent testing. 42

Clean Air Act 110(l) Demonstration
Air Quality Impact of Amendment to
Bear River Health Department Inspection and Maintenance Program
UTAH DIVISION OF AIR QUALITY 1
Introduction
Section 110(l) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) states that the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) cannot approve a state implementation plan (SIP) revision if the revision would interfere
with any applicable requirement concerning attainment and reasonable further progress, or any
other applicable requirement of the CAA. When revisions to these rules are made, the CAA
requires that an analysis is made to verify that the rule will not be relaxed in a way that would be
impermissible under Section 110(l).
Additionally, EPA has given draft guidance that “For example, for certain pollutants such as CO,
the Agency could determine that an increase in emissions is not interfering with attainment if
ambient levels in an attainment area were well below the National Ambient Air Quality Standard
(NAAQS) and not trending upward. Under these conditions, the Agency could conclude that
ambient levels are so low that a slight emissions increase is not likely to cause a violation of the
NAAQS, hence noninterference has been demonstrated (p.12).” 1 The proposed amendments
impact such a small number of vehicle emissions within Cache County that it is not likely to
cause a violation.
This demonstration is being submitted for public comment because the Utah Division of Air
Quality is proposing amendments to Bear River Health Department’s Inspection and
Maintenance Program (I/M) to align with ordinance changes already approved by Bear River
Health Department’s Board of Health.
Proposed Amendment Summary
1. This change creates the addition of a Part Unavailability Waiver which would be utilized if a
vehicle part was unable to be obtained due to the following described circumstances. The
Bear River Health Department I/M may issue a waiver if it can be verified that the part in
question or one similar to it is no longer available for sale or unobtainable due to
manufacturing circumstances.
Air Quality Impact Analysis: This change might result in an additional 4-10 vehicle waivers
per year. Due to the small number of vehicles impacted, this change will have no noticeable
impact on air quality, air quality modeling for the SIP or attainment of the PM2.5 NAAQS
2. This change creates the addition of a Mobile Inspection Service option. The amendment
includes the deletion of the word “stationary” in the Bear River Health Department’s I/M
regulation. The new language in the I/M regulation states: "I/M Program Station: A vehicle
1 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. (2005). Demonstrating noninterference under Section 110(l) of the Clean Air Act when revising a State
Implementation Plan (Draft).

Bear River Health Department Inspection and Maintenance Program
UTAH DIVISION OF AIR QUALITY 2
Emissions I/M Station that qualifies and has a valid permit, issued by the Department, to
operate as an emissions inspection and maintenance station in the I/M Program."
Air Quality Impact Analysis: Modifying the I/M regulation to reflect this business innovation
has no impact on air quality. It improves the convenience of the inspection process for the
customer and may have a positive impact on air quality.
3. This change creates the addition of an exemption for emergency vehicles within the I/M
program. The new language in the I/M regulation within the Vehicle Exemption section states:
"Any current use “Authorized emergency vehicle” as defined by Section 41-6a-102 Utah Code
Annotated,1953, as amended". Codifying this exemption within the Bear River Health
Department I/M further allows for the emergency departments to exempt emergency vehicles
from inspection. This change is to address issues surrounding the availability of emergency
response vehicles in Cache County where the vehicle is running into performance issues. The
change is necessary to prevent the decommissioning of critical emergency response vehicles
when a part may not be accessed in a timely fashion.
Air Quality Impact Analysis: This exemption would impact approximately 102 vehicles within
Cache County. To put this number into context the total number of registered vehicles in
Cache County as of 2024 is 124,718. Due to the small number of vehicles impacted, this
change will have no noticeable impact on air quality, air quality modeling for the SIP or
attainment of the 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS.

Air Quality Impact of Amendment to
Bear River Health Department Inspection and Maintenance Program
UTAH DIVISION OF AIR QUALITY 3
Conclusion: The proposed amendments to the Bear River Health Department I/M will not
impact the area's ability to maintain the PM2.5 NAAQS. Table 1 indicates that the design value in
Cache County has been consistently lower than the NAAQS over the last 8 years. The Cache
County monitor is not likely to be influenced by the minor amendment and is predicted to
continue to maintain the NAAQS. The ambient levels are so low that a slight emissions increase
is not likely to cause a violation of the NAAQS, hence noninterference has been demonstrated.

M E M O R A N D U M TO: Air Quality Board THROUGH: Bryce C. Bird, Executive Secretary THROUGH: Erica Pryor, Rules Coordinator FROM: Alan Humpherys, Minor New Source Review Section Manager DATE: January 22, 2025 SUBJECT: PROPOSE FOR FINAL ADOPTION: New Rule R307-209. Portable Aggregate
Processing Plants. __________________________________________________________________________________
The Utah Division of Air Quality (DAQ) currently issues approval orders to portable aggregate processing plants. These plants include nonmetallic mineral processing plants, hot mix asphalt plants, and concrete batch plants. These portable aggregate processing plants can temporarily relocate to locations throughout
the state under section R307-401-17. These sources must comply with the issued approval orders and temporary relocation letter. New rule R307-209 codifies the requirements in portable approval orders, and amendments to existing section R307-401-10 will allow these sources to temporarily relocate aggregate equipment without first obtaining an approval order. These rules will not add any new requirements to sources, but save sources the time and money from first obtaining a portable approval order. In addition, the new process will reduce DAQ staff time spent on this work. On November 6, 2024, the Utah Air Quality Board approved a 30-day public comment period for the proposed new rule. This public comment period ran from December 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. A
public hearing was scheduled for December 18, 2024; however, no request was made to hold the hearing, and it was cancelled in accordance with 63G-3-302. No formal public comments were received during the public comment period; however, we did receive one internal comment from the ATLAS section and as
such, one minor change was made to the rule language.
DAQ-008-25 Page 2
Clarity was added to the rule to indicate that a temporary source would be required to comply with the applicable provisions of R307-801, Utah Asbestos Rule, if that rule applies. A source would be required to comply with R307-801 regardless of whether R307-209 has the applicability language; however, the DAQ wanted to make sure sources are aware of the requirements of R307-801 when operating a portable aggregate processing plant. No other changes were made to the proposed rule. Recommendation: Staff recommend the Board approve new rule R307-209, Portable Aggregate Processing Plants, as amended, for final adoption.

General Information
2. Rule or section catchline:
R307-401. Permit: New and Modified Sources.
3. Purpose of the new rule or reason for the change:
The Division of Air Quality (DAQ) will be proposing a new rule R307-209, Portable Aggregate Processing Plants, which will
impact Rule R307-401 Permit: New and Modified Sources by necessitating an additional exemption under Subsection R307-
401-10(8).
4. Summary of the new rule or change:
This filing adds an additional source listed as a new Subsection, R307-401-10(8) portable aggregate processing plant, to the list of
exemptions under Section R307-401-10 Source Category Exemptions. This change is because of the introduction of new Rule
R307-209, Portable Aggregate Processing Plants.
Fiscal Information
5. Provide an estimate and written explanation of the aggregate anticipated cost or savings to:
A) State budget:
On average, DAQ issues around four portable Approval Orders a year. The average cost of a portable approval order is $3,075.
It is anticipated that the DAQ will not receive around $12,300 a year in permitting fees by implementing this rule.
B) Local governments:
DAQ is not aware of any local governments that have a portable Approval Order, so it is anticipated that this rule change will
not have an impact on local governments.
C) Small businesses ("small business" means a business employing 1-49 persons):
The proposed changes to Rule R307-401 are anticipated to provide a total fiscal savings of $12,300 per year to all impacted
companies, with no negative fiscal impacts anticipated. At this time DAQ is unable to estimate how many of the total companies
impacted by this rulemaking are small businesses, however the anticipated savings would apply to all small businesses
impacted.
D) Non-small businesses ("non-small business" means a business employing 50 or more persons):
The proposed amendments to Rule R307-401 are anticipated to provide a total fiscal savings of $12,300 per year to all
impacted companies, with no negative fiscal impacts anticipated. At this time DAQ is unable to estimate how many of the total
companies impacted by this rulemaking are non-small businesses, however the anticipated savings would apply to all non-
small businesses impacted.
E) Persons other than small businesses, non-small businesses, state, or local government entities ("person" means
any individual, partnership, corporation, association, governmental entity, or public or private organization of any character
other than an agency):
It is anticipated that amendments to Rule R307-401 would not impact other persons.
F) Compliance costs for affected persons (How much will it cost an impacted entity to adhere to this rule or its changes?):
Rule R307-401 will exempt sources from the requirement to obtain Air Quality Approval Orders; therefore, it is anticipated that
these amendments will not impose any new compliance costs to affected persons.
G) Regulatory Impact Summary Table (This table only includes fiscal impacts that could be measured. If there are
inestimable fiscal impacts, they will not be included in this table. Inestimable impacts will be included in narratives above.)

R307. Environmental Quality, Air Quality. 1
R307-401. Permit: New and Modified Sources. 2
R307-401-1. Purpose. 3
This rule establishes the application and permitting requirements for new installations and 4
modifications to existing installations throughout the State of Utah. Additional permitting requirements apply 5
to larger installations or installations located in nonattainment or maintenance areas. These additional 6
requirements can be found in Rules R307-403, R307-405, R307-406, R307-420, and R307-421. Modeling 7
requirements in Rule R307-410 may also apply. Each of the permitting rules establishes independent 8
requirements, and the owner or operator must comply with all of the requirements that apply to the 9
installation. Exemptions under R307-401 do not affect applicability of the other permitting rules. 10
11
R307-401-2. Definitions. 12
"Actual emissions" (a) means the actual rate of emissions of an air pollutant from an emissions unit, 13
as determined in accordance with Subsections R307-401-2(b) through R307-401-2(d). 14
(b) In general, actual emissions as of a particular date shall equal the average rate, in tons per year, at15
which the unit actually emitted the air pollutant during a consecutive 24-month period which precedes the 16
particular date and which is representative of normal source operation. The director shall allow the use of a 17
different time period upon a determination that it is more representative of normal source operation. Actual 18
emissions shall be calculated using the unit's actual operating hours, production rates, and types of materials 19
processed, stored, or combusted during the selected time period. 20
(c)The director may presume that source-specific allowable emissions for the unit are equivalent to21
the actual emissions of the unit. 22
(d) For any emissions unit that has not begun normal operations on the particular date, actual23
emissions shall equal the potential to emit of the unit on that date. 24
"Best available control technology" means an emissions limitation (including a visible emissions 25
standard) based on the maximum degree of reduction for each air pollutant which would be emitted from any 26
proposed stationary source or modification which the director, on a case-by-case basis, taking into account 27
energy, environmental, and economic impacts and other costs, determines is achievable for such source or 28
modification through application of production processes or available methods, systems, and techniques, 29
including fuel cleaning or treatment or innovative fuel combustion techniques for control of such pollutant. 30
In no event shall application of best available control technology result in emissions of any pollutant which 31
would exceed the emissions allowed by any applicable standard under 40 CFR parts 60 and 61. If the 32
director determines that technological or economic limitations on the application of measurement 33
methodology to a particular emissions unit would make the imposition of an emissions standard infeasible, a 34
design, equipment, work practice, operational standard or combination thereof, may be prescribed instead to 35
satisfy the requirement for the application of best available control technology. Such standard shall, to the 36
degree possible, set forth the emissions reduction achievable by implementation of such design, equipment, 37
work practice or operation, and shall provide for compliance by means which achieve equivalent results. 38
Air Strippers" are systems designed to pump groundwater to the surface for treatment, usually by 39
aeration. 40
"Building, structure, facility, or installation" means all of the pollutant-emitting activities which 41
belong to the same industrial grouping, are located on one or more contiguous or adjacent properties, and are 42
under the control of the same person (or persons under common control) except the activities of any vessel. 43
Pollutant-emitting activities shall be considered as part of the same industrial grouping if they belong to the 44
same Major Group (i.e., which have the same two-digit code) as described in the Standard Industrial 45
Classification Manual, 1972, as amended by the 1977 Supplement (U.S. Government Printing Office stock 46
numbers 4101-0066 and 003-005-00176-0, respectively). 47
"Construction" means any physical change or change in the method of operation (including 48
fabrication, erection, installation, demolition, or modification of an emissions unit) that would result in a 49
change in emissions. 50
"Emissions unit" means any part of a stationary source that emits or would have the potential to emit 51
any air pollutant. 52
"Fugitive emissions" means those emissions which could not reasonably pass through a stack, 53
chimney, vent, or other functionally equivalent opening. 54
Page 1 of 10
"Indirect source" means a building, structure, facility, or installation which attracts or may attract 1
mobile source activity that results in emissions of a pollutant for which there is a national standard. 2
"Potential to emit" means the maximum capacity of a stationary source to emit an air pollutant under 3
its physical and operational design. Any physical or operational limitation on the capacity of the source to 4
emit a pollutant, including air pollution control equipment and restrictions on hours of operation or on the 5
type or amount of material combusted, stored, or processed, shall be treated as part of its design if the 6
limitation or the effect it would have on emissions is enforceable. Secondary emissions do not count in 7
determining the potential to emit of a stationary source. 8
"Secondary emissions" means emissions which occur as a result of the construction or operation of a 9
major stationary source or major modification, but do not come from the major stationary source or major 10
modification itself. Secondary emissions include emissions from any offsite support facility which would not 11
be constructed or increase its emissions except as a result of the construction or operation of the major 12
stationary source or major modification. Secondary emissions do not include any emissions which come 13
directly from a mobile source, such as emissions from the tailpipe of a motor vehicle, from a train, or from a 14
vessel. 15
"Soil Aeration" is an ex-situ treatment process where excavated soil from a remediation project is 16
spread in a thin layer to encourage biodegradation of soil contamination. Biodegradation may be stimulated 17
through aeration or the addition of minerals, nutrients, and/or moisture. 18
"Soil Vapor Extraction", or SVE, is a system designed to extract vapor phase contaminants from the 19
subsurface. SVE systems are often combined with other technologies, such as air sparging or vacuum-20
enhanced recovery systems. 21
"Stationary source" means any building, structure, facility, or installation which emits or may emit an 22
air pollutant. 23
"Vapor Mitigation System", or VMS, is a sub-slab system whose primary purpose is mitigating 24
vapor intrusion into an occupied, or occupiable, structure and is not intended or designed for the remediation 25
of contaminated soil or groundwater. This definition includes both active and passive systems. Passive 26
systems consist of a vapor barrier either below or above the slab of a structure and a venting system 27
installed under a structure to divert vapor from beneath the structure to the sides or roofline of a structure. 28
Active systems are similar to passive systems but incorporate a blower or fan to actively extract air from 29
beneath the structure. 30

comply with the provisions of Title R307 or the State Implementation Plan. 14
(4) To accommodate staged construction of a large source, the director may issue an order 15
authorizing construction of an initial stage prior to receipt of detailed plans for the entire proposal provided 16
that, through a review of general plans, engineering reports and other information the proposal is determined 17
feasible by the director under the intent of Title R307. Subsequent detailed plans will then be processed as 18
prescribed in this paragraph. For staged construction projects the previous determination under Subsections 19
R307-401-8(1) and (2) will be reviewed and modified as appropriate at the earliest reasonable time prior to 20
commencement of construction of each independent phase of the proposed source or modification. 21
(5) If the director determines that a proposed stationary source, modification or relocation does not 22
meet the conditions established in (1) above, the director will not issue an approval order. 23
24
R307-401-9. Small Source Exemption. 25
(1) A small stationary source is exempt from the requirement to obtain an approval order in Sections 26
R307-401-5 through R307-401-8 if the following conditions are met. 27
(a) its actual emissions are less than 5 tons per year per air pollutant of any of the following air 28
pollutants: sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, PM10, ozone, or volatile organic compounds; 29

released back to the environment without chemical change, as well as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, 35
argon, neon, helium, krypton, xenon should not be included in emission calculations when determining 36
applicability under (a) through (c) above. 37
(2) The owner or operator of a source that is exempted from the requirement to obtain an approval 38
order under (1) above shall no longer be exempt if actual emissions in any subsequent year exceed the 39
emission thresholds in (1) above. The owner or operator shall submit a notice of intent under Section R307-40
401-5 no later than 180 days after the end of the calendar year in which the source exceeded the emission 41
threshold. 42
(3) Small Source Exemption - Registration. The director will maintain a registry of sources that are 43
claiming an exemption under Section R307-401-9. The owner or operator of a stationary source that is 44
claiming an exemption under Section R307-401-9 may submit a written registration notice to the director. 45
The notice shall include the following minimum information: 46
(a) identifying information, including company name and address, location of source, telephone 47
number, and name of plant site manager or point of contact; 48

Page 5 of 10
(4) An exemption under Section R307-401-9 does not affect the requirements of Section R307-401-1
17, Temporary Relocation. 2
(5) A stationary source that is not required to obtain a permit under Rule R307-405 for greenhouse 3
gases, as defined in Subsection R307-405-3(9)(a), is not required to obtain an approval order for greenhouse 4
gases under Rule R307-401. This exemption does not affect the requirement to obtain an approval order for 5
any other air pollutant emitted by the stationary source. 6
7
R307-401-10. Source Category Exemptions. 8
The source categories described in Section R307-401-10 are exempt from the requirement to obtain 9

DAQ-010-25
M E M O R A N D U M TO: Air Quality Board THROUGH: Bryce C. Bird, Executive Secretary THROUGH: Erica Pryor, Rules Coordinator FROM: Greg Mortensen, Inventory Section Manager DATE: January 23, 2025 SUBJECT: PROPOSE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT: Amend R307-150. Emission Inventories.
______________________________________________________________________________________ During a review prompted by a board member question about rule R307-150 in 2020, Division of Air
Quality (DAQ) staff determined that the point source hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) exemption threshold calculations in section R307-150-7 could not be replicated. Historical documentation of the calculation was also unavailable despite numerous records searches and interviews with current and former DAQ
employees. Emissions inventory staff began to seek alternative means to calculate HAPs reporting exemptions and working with the State and Local Emissions Inventory System (SLEIS) vendor to evaluate the ability of the program to automatically calculate HAPs based on already required material throughputs and established emission factors. The SLEIS vendor subsequently provided a program enhancement which automatically populates HAPs. The enhancement was applied during the 2023-point source emissions inventory collection and proved successful. As part of staff research activities, other states were contacted regarding their point HAPs collection rules. Oklahoma and West Virginia have no minimum reporting threshold (note: both states use SLEIS),
Louisiana and Wyoming have a ten-pound reporting threshold and South Carolina has a 200 pound threshold. It was also reported that Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Wisconsin also have point source HAPs reporting requirements, but no details were provided.
DAQ-010-25 Page 2
Additionally, it was noted that states that do have a reporting threshold expect that regulated facilities calculate HAPs emissions estimates to determine whether they exceed the threshold and must report or not. Therefore, it is unlikely that establishing a new reporting threshold calculation would reduce the workload for a source. Furthermore, having an expected HAPs list auto-populate in SLEIS reduces the uncertainty for which HAPs sources may need to report for a given process and should save manual calculation time. This should be particularly helpful for smaller point sources who, at times, rely on administrative staff to complete emissions inventories. Ultimately, striking the HAPs reporting thresholds in section R307-150-7 removes a confusing and intricate calculation sources have struggled with and one which DAQ staff were unable to replicate. More
importantly, this proposed change allows sources and DAQ to leverage SLEIS’s capability and will align the rule with what sources are already reporting in SLEIS.
The aforementioned rule review also revealed that the current section R307-150-3 language implied that sulfur dioxide (SO2) requirements would lapse in 2018. However, that is not the case and SO2 reporting is still necessary to comply with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regional haze requirements.
Therefore, it is proposed that section R307-150-3 be modified to remove this inaccurate language. This rule R307-150 review also coincided with the ongoing development of the Northern Wasatch Front Serious Ozone State Implementation Plan. As emissions inventories were passed on to technical analysis staff for modeling, it was noted that the majority of point sources (230 of 421 sources) reported mobile emissions, but other facilities did not. Inventory staff noted that the inconsistency was due to a combination of some sources having a specific reporting requirement in their permits and many others voluntarily reported these emissions as there was no explicit requirement in rule R307-150. A meeting with various DAQ sections (including technical analysis, policy, emissions inventory, and compliance) was subsequently held to discuss the issue. Technical analysis and policy staff noted that having a consistent and comprehensive emissions inventory on point sources would allow for more accurate emissions spatial allocation, reduced uncertainty, enhanced model performance, and more accurate policy evaluation, if/when needed. Emissions inventory staff noted that most sources are already
submitting these emissions and SLEIS is capable of automatically calculating the emissions based on fuel use or operation hours once a source populates the mobile process in SLEIS. Staff do not anticipate a large workload increase for reporting these emissions as many sources already track fuel use and operational
hours of equipment. Workload would be further limited as emissions reporting would be restricted to equipment that does not leave the facility’s property in a given year. Staff has consulted with Attorney General representatives related to appropriate rule language changes to incorporate mobile emission reporting and limiting the reporting to mobile sources that do not leave the facility’s property. The proposed definition and language have been added to sections R307-150-2, R307-150-5, and R307-150-6. Finally, additional changes are proposed to bring rule R307-150 into compliance with Executive Order 2021-12.
Recommendation: Staff recommend the Board approve the amendments to rule R307-150, Emission Inventories, for a 30-day public comment period.

General Information
2. Rule or section catchline:
R307-150. Emission Inventories.
3. Purpose of the new rule or reason for the change:
Rule R307-150 is being updated to reflect what our State and Local Emissions Inventory System (SLEIS) database is capable
of. Ultimately, the Division of Air Quality (DAQ) needs to catch the rule up on Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) to reflect what
sources are already reporting and what SLEIS is also already able to do. Additionally, DAQ is removing the HAPs exemption
limits as staff were unable to replicate the calculation methodology employed in the existing rule. SLEIS is now able to
automatically populate any HAPs emission factors with standard, well defined methodology, therefore negating the need for
exemption limits. This is a much-simplified means for most facilities to report their HAPs emissions. DAQ staff believe this will
also provide more accurate and consistent HAPs data while also streamlining HAPs reporting with criteria pollutants. DAQ is
also adding the explicit authority to collect mobile emissions from point sources. Over half of the facilities reporting in SLEIS
were already including emissions. This change will allow staff to level the playing field and mandate all facilities to report these
emissions. This will result in a more comprehensive point source inventory which can be leveraged for modeling and policy
purposes. Staff is also taking the opportunity to update the sulfur dioxide (SO2) reporting requirements by removing a conflicting
statement indicating an erroneous end date for SO2 reporting. Additionally, other revisions have been made to bring the rule
into compliance with EO 2021-12.
4. Summary of the new rule or change:
The amendments to Rule R307-150 do the following:
Remove HAPs threshold calculation and HAPs reporting exemptions
Update SO2 reporting language
Remove the outdated timeline for SO2 reporting period.
Require mobile emissions reporting by point sources
Include the definition of mobile emissions (by modifying reference to 40 CFR 51 to include “which never leave
the property”).
Add mobile emissions reporting requirement to Sections R307-150-5 and R307-150-6
Rule language changes to bring the rule into compliance with EO 2021-12
Fiscal Information
5. Provide an estimate and written explanation of the aggregate anticipated cost or savings to:
A) State budget:
There are no anticipated costs or savings to the state budget associated with the amendments to Rule R307-150. No additional
costs are expected as the automated HAPs enhancement is already included in the current SLEIS maintenance agreement and
mobile emissions are already reportable, and reported by many facilities, in SLEIS. All other changes are administrative
language changes for portions of the rule already in effect.
B) Local governments:
If not already reporting, there is a possible workload increase to track mobile source use on a facility. However, there are no or
negligible costs anticipated for HAPs reporting due to automated processes for local governments associated with the
amendments to Rule R307-150.
C) Small businesses ("small business" means a business employing 1-49 persons):
If not already reporting, there is a possible workload increase to track mobile source use on a facility. However, there are no or
negligible costs anticipated for HAPs reporting due to automated processes for small businesses associated with the
amendments to Rule R307-150.
D) Non-small businesses ("non-small business" means a business employing 50 or more persons):
If not already reporting, there is a possible workload increase to track mobile source use on a facility. However, there are no or
negligible costs anticipated for HAPs reporting due to automated processes for non-small businesses associated with the
amendments to Rule R307-150.
E) Persons other than small businesses, non-small businesses, state, or local government entities ("person" means
any individual, partnership, corporation, association, governmental entity, or public or private organization of any character
other than an agency):
If not already reporting, there is a possible workload increase to track mobile source use on a facility. However, there are no or
negligible costs anticipated for HAPs reporting due to automated processes for non-small businesses associated with the
amendments to Rule R307-150.
F) Compliance costs for affected persons (How much will it cost an impacted entity to adhere to this rule or its changes?):
If not already reporting, there is a possible workload increase to track mobile source use on a facility. However, given that the
majority of facilities already report these emissions, there are a limited number of facilities that do not report and these all vary
in operational size and the possible mobile equipment operating on each facility is unknown at this time. Therefore, predicting
labor cost (current hourly pay rates are unknown) and possible time needed to determine equipment types to load into the
inventory database is unknown due to the potential variability of each operation’s mobile quantity and types.
Conversely, workloads costs should be significantly reduced as SLEIS provides the means to input activity data (e.g. fuel use or
operating hours, both of which are typically tracked by sources as part of their normal business practices) to calculate
emissions. Thus, once the source adds the equipment types and number thereof to SLEIS, they only need to input activity data
going forward as SLEIS will carry their equipment type and number from year-to-year.
Removing the HAPs reporting thresholds should have negligible workload increase as SLEIS will automatically calculate HAPs
based on the already required activity data for their annual emission inventory reports. Additionally, there is a strong potential
that this will reduce workload for sources as they are already expected to determine if their HAP emissions are above or below
the threshold in the current rule which involves a complex calculation for each pollutant. For smaller sources, it is not
uncommon that administrative staff are tasked with submitting the inventory and are confused by these thresholds. This not
only expends their time and agency time supporting them but also exposes sources to potential compliance costs if they fail to
report a HAP as they guessed or erroneously calculated that they were below the threshold. SLEIS’s HAPs auto-calculation
capability alleviates this burden and allows sources to simply populate their processes with already-required activity data.

M E M O R A N D U M TO: Air Quality Board THROUGH: Bryce C. Bird, Executive Secretary THROUGH: Erica Pryor, Rules Coordinator FROM: Ana Williams, Environmental Engineer DATE: January 27, 2025 SUBJECT: PROPOSE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT: Amendment to Section R307-110-17. Section IX,
Control Measures for Area and Point Sources, Part H, Emission Limits; and Amendments to Utah State Implementation Plan, Section IX.H.11 and Section IX.H.12: Emission Limitations and Operating Practices.
______________________________________________________________________________________ On November 6, 2020, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed “Approval and
Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of Utah; Salt Lake City and Provo, Utah PM2.5 Redesignations to Attainment and Utah State Implementation Plan Revisions.” (85 FR 71023). This proposal included approval of Utah’s moderate and serious State Implementation Plans (SIPs) for the 2006 24-hr PM2.5 standard for the Salt Lake City nonattainment area (SLC NAA) and the Provo NAA. EPA received adverse public comments regarding how best available control technology (BACT) was addressed for the four major point source refineries included in the SLC NAA. Over the past four years, the division has worked closely with EPA and the refineries to address the comments, resulting in these “Part H” SIP amendments. The proposed amendments to Part H that are incorporated in the SIP through Section R307-110-17 result in the change of specific emission limitations for five major industrial sources located within the serious PM2.5 NAAs, as well as a clarification in the Recordkeeping and Reporting General Requirements for all major industrial sources located within the serious PM2.5 NAAs. These emission limitations serve to fulfill Utah’s statutory obligations under Section 189(b) of the Clean Air Act.
DAQ-013-25 Page 2
The emission limitations proposed in this rulemaking will replace the existing source-wide PM2.5, nitrogen oxides (NOX), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) limitations originally adopted by the Air Quality Board on January 2, 2019, for four major industrial sources: Big West Oil LLC Refinery, Chevron Products Company – Salt Lake Refinery, Holly Corporation: Holly Frontier Sinclair Refinery, and Tesoro Refining and Marketing Company LLC Marathon Refinery: Salt Lake City Refinery. The existing source-wide PM2.5, NOX, and SO2 limitations are being removed at the direction of the EPA as they determined that the limitations did not meet the definition of BACT. Emissions at the sources will continue to be controlled and meet BACT requirements through the existing “Petroleum Refineries” requirements found in Section IX.H.11. General Requirements in conjunction with the new NOX emission limitations that have been added to Section IX.H.12. Source-Specific Emission Limitations for each of the listed refineries. Details regarding the
additional analysis that identified the proposed emission limitations and supporting information surrounding these proposed changes can be found in the documentation associated with the proposed revisions. Amendments were also made to Hexcel’s Part H requirements and there is an additional memo
in this package that includes details. During the final stages of state rulemaking, EPA will propose rulemaking at the federal level, review
public comments, and finalize. This entire process must be complete by the end of the calendar year in 2025 to align with the projected modeling years included in the maintenance plan attainment demonstration. Recommendation: Staff recommend the Board approve the amendments to Section R307-110-17; and amendments to Utah State Implementation Plan, Section IX.H.11 and Section IX.H.12: Emission Limitations and Operating Practices, for a 30-day public comment period.

General Information
2. Rule or section catchline:
R307-110-17. Section IX, Control Measures for Area and Point Sources, Part H, Emission Limits.
3. Purpose of the new rule or reason for the change:
The purpose of the amendment to Section R307-110-17 is to amend the Utah State Implementation Plan, Subsections IX.H.11
and IX.H.12 Emission Limits and Operating Practices to comply with the Clean Air Act requirements for Serious PM2.5
nonattainment areas as listed in Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 51, Subpart Z (40 CFR 51 Subpart Z). Section
R307-110-17 incorporates amendments to Subsections IX.H.11 and IX.H.12 into the rule and shall be amended to change the
Board adoption date to the anticipated adoption date of the amended plan.
4. Summary of the new rule or change:
This rule amendment is in response to feedback and direction provided by the US Environmental Protection Agency after the
original submittal of the Utah Serious PM2.5 nonattainment area State Implementation Plan as adopted by the Utah Air Quality
Board on January 2, 2019. The following rule amendments are proposed: (1) Additional recordkeeping and reporting
requirements under Subsection IX.H.11 General Requirements. (2) The removal of source-wide PM2.5, NOx, and SO2 caps for
four sources under Subsection IX.H.12 Source-Specific Emission Limitations. (3) The addition of new NOx limitations for the
same four sources under Subsection IX.H.12 Source-Specific Emission Limitations. (4) Minor changes to reflect current process
units at two sources under Subsection IX.H.12 Source-Specific Emission Limitations.
Fiscal Information
5. Provide an estimate and written explanation of the aggregate anticipated cost or savings to:
A) State budget:
This rule amendment is not expected to create additional costs or savings for the state government. These facilities are already
permitted and inspected under existing rules and have existing stack testing requirements in place. Inspectors will be able to
confirm compliance as part of normal stack testing processes.
B) Local governments:
This rule amendment is not expected to impact local governments; therefore, no costs or savings are anticipated.
C) Small businesses ("small business" means a business employing 1-49 persons):
This rule amendment is not expected to impact small businesses; therefore, no costs or savings are anticipated.
D) Non-small businesses ("non-small business" means a business employing 50 or more persons):
The Utah Division of Air Quality anticipates that these changes to the proposed rule will impact four non-small businesses. The
impacts are described below.
These changes will require new stack testing requirements on 12 emission units located across four non-small businesses.
Stack testing costs were calculated based on information submitted to the UDAQ as part of the BACT/BACM process in 2017
for the PM2.5 Serious SIP. Assuming an average of $5,441 for stack testing costs, and accounting for inflation changes from
2017 to 2025, an average stack testing value of $7,071.38 was used. Stack tests will be required every three years. Therefore,
for 12 units stack testing every three years across four non-small businesses, the estimated impact will be $84,856.56 every
three years.
E) Persons other than small businesses, non-small businesses, state, or local government entities ("person" means
any individual, partnership, corporation, association, governmental entity, or public or private organization of any character
other than an agency):
This amendment does not apply to persons other than small business, non-small businesses, state, or local government
entities; therefore, no additional costs are expected because of these changes.
F) Compliance costs for affected persons (How much will it cost an impacted entity to adhere to this rule or its changes?):
Compliance costs will consist of additional stack testing for four non-small businesses. The impacts are described below.
Compliance costs are estimated at $84,856.56 every three years for additional stack testing requirements.
G) Regulatory Impact Summary Table (This table only includes fiscal impacts that could be measured. If there are
inestimable fiscal impacts, they will not be included in this table. Inestimable impacts will be included in narratives above.)

Subject: PM2.5 SIP Condition Amendment Request 11
12
On June 11, 2024, Hexcel Corporation (Hexcel) met with UDAQ to discuss the feasibility of two of the 13
PM2.5 SIP conditions. The two conditions Hexcel is requesting a feasibility determination on pertain to 14
Ultra Low NOx Burners (condition H.12.f.iv) and De-NOx Water systems (condition H.12.f.v). Hexcel 15
submitted two letters on August 1, 2024 addressing the technical feasibility of Ultra Low NOx Burners 16
with flue gas recirculation on fiber lines 3, 4, and 7 and De-NOx Water Direct Fired Thermal Oxidizer on 17
fiber lines 13, 14, 15 and 16. UDAQ requested additional information for the technical feasibility. 18
Hexcel submitted the “SIP Conditions Amendment Request Additional Information” on December 5, 19
2024. This response addressed both conditions and included an updated BACM analysis. Each SIP 20
requested removal condition will be addressed individually below. 21
22
Condition H.12.f.iv 23
“Ultra Low NOx Burners with flue gas recirculation shall be installed on Fiber Lines 3, 4 and 7 to 24
control NOx emissions no later than December 31, 2024.” 25
26
Hexcel has submitted a “SIP Condition Amendment Request” on August 1, 2024 and additional 27
information submitted “SIP conditions Amendment Request Additional Information” on December 6, 28
2024, which contained a request to remove Condition H.12.f.iv (Ultra Low NOx Burners on fiber lines 3, 29
4 and 7) due to technical infeasibility. 30
31
The submitted documents describe the operational requirements for the thermal oxidizers on fiber lines 3, 32
4 and 7. The thermal oxidizers are used as a control device for hydrogen cyanide, ammonia and VOCs. 33
For the thermal oxidizer to operate correctly for the combustion of the hydrogen cyanide, the temperature 34
must be maintained at approximately 1,400 degrees Fahrenheit. With the addition of the flue gas 35
recirculation on the low NOx burners to lower the NOx emissions to 9 ppm, the flue gas recirculation 36
reduces the combustion temperatures (to approximately 1000 degrees Fahrenheit) to lower thermal NOx 37
creation. For this reason, flue gas recirculation is not technically feasible to be added to a thermal 38
oxidizer. 39
40
The burner size for the existing thermal oxidizers for fiber lines 3 (0.75 MMBtu/hr), 4 (2.0 MMBtu/hr) 41
and 7 (0.30 MMBtu/hr) are all below 5 MMBtu/hr. Hexcel hired an internationally reputed industrial 42
pollution control company to determine if the existing burners can be replaced withUltra Low NOx 43
burners. The company contacted Honeywell, Fives and Access (burner manufacturers) to determine if 44
there were any burners that could operate at 1400 degrees Fahrenheit with a low NOx emissions rate. All 45
three burner companies had no burners at the existing size that could meet the 9 ppm and 1400 degrees 46
Fahrenheit. 47
48
DAQE-MN102370025-18

The submitted “SIP conditions Amendment Request Additional Information” on December 6, 2024, 1
contained an updated BACM. The BACM included a top-down analysis of all the control technologies 2
for lowering NOx emissions. The BACM demonstrated that Low NOx burner operation on the thermal 3
oxidizer is technically infeasible. The replacement of the existing burner with a direct fired thermal 4
oxidizer is technically feasible. The lowest cost to replace the thermal oxidizer with a direct fired thermal 5
oxidizer is $94,398 per ton removed for fiber line #7 making the replacement economically infeasible. 6
7
Condition H.12.f.v 8
“De-NOx Water Direct Fired Thermal Oxidizer (DFTO) shall be installed on Fiber Lines 13, 14, 15, and 9
16 to control NOx emissions no later than December 31, 2024.” 10
11
Hexcel has submitted a “SIP Condition Amendment Request” on August 1, 2024 and additional 12
information submitted “SIP conditions Amendment Request Additional Information” on December 6, 13
2024, which contained a request to remove Condition H.12.f.v (De-NOx Water Direct Fired Thermal 14
Oxidizer on fiber lines 13 thru 16) due to technical infeasibility. 15
16
The submitted documents described the operational implications from installing the De-NOx water 17
system to the DFTO. Hexcel has installed the De-NOx water system on Fiber Lines 13, 14, 15 and 16 to 18
meet the SIP requirements. Once installed and operating, Hexcel experienced the following operational 19
complications. Hexcel noticed “caking” in the baghouse located downstream of the system. The caking 20
of the baghouse decreases the removal efficiency and increases maintenance operations which increases 21
down time. Hexcel experienced an increase in natural gas usage on Fiber Lines 13, 14, 15 and 16, since 22
the De-NOx water system decreases the burner temperature. The increase in natural gas increases the 23
combustion emissions of all the associated fiber lines which leads to the formation of more NOx. In 24
March 2024, Hexcel stack tested the fiber lines and the testing indicated that the De-water system lowered 25
the destruction removal efficiency of hydrogen cyanide and ammonia. Hexcel hired an internationally 26
reputed industrial pollution control company to provide a technical analysis of why the De-NOx water 27
system was not working as designed. The industrial pollution control company concluded that, due to the 28
DFTO requiring a multi-stage combustion chamber configuration and the system not operating in a zero-29
oxygen environment, the De-NOx water system is unable to achieve the designed NOx reductions. The 30
industrial pollution control company also concluded that the existing system would require extensive 31
retrofitting to the DFTO. For this reason, the implementation of the De-NOx water system to the DFTO 32
is not technically feasible. 33
34
The use of ultra-low NOx burners with flue gas recirculation and the installation of the De-NOx water 35
system were not included in the original conclusion for Hexcel’s PM2.5 SIP Evaluation Report and were 36
not considered as “PM2.5 SIP Specific Requirements” (Section 5 of the UTAH PM2.5 SIP SERIOUS 37
Evaluation Report dated July 1, 2018). Hexcel submitted a revised BACT analysis on June 19, 2018, 38
after the June Board meeting. The June 19th submittal revised the economic analysis, which resulted in 39
the costs of some of the equipment being considered economically feasible. UDAQ had originally 40
determined the equipment was not economically feasible based on the original economic analysis 41
received prior to the June meeting. Therefore, based on the revised information, UDAQ had incorporated 42
new requirements into the final draft as a consideration for ultra-low NOx burners and De-NOx water 43
system. The PM2.5 SIP modeling analysis had already been completed at this time and there was no need 44
to revisit the model as this was an assumed reduction in potential emissions which would not affect the 45
model. Therefore, the removal of the ultra-low NOx burners and De-NOx water system will not result in 46
an emission increase as these potential reductions in emissions were never considered in the original 47
modeling analysis performed for the PM2.5 Serious SIP demonstration. 48
49
DAQE-MN102370025-18

Conclusion 1
The UDAQ has reviewed the submitted documentation and agrees that the Low NOx burner operation on 2
the thermal oxidizer is technically infeasible, the replacement of the existing burner with a direct fired 3
thermal oxidizer is technically feasible and the cost to replace the thermal oxidizers with a direct fired 4
thermal oxidizer is economically infeasible. 5
6
The UDAQ will remove PM2.5 SIP conditions IX.H.12.f.iv and IX.H.12.f.v, amend the Utah PM2.5 SIP 7
Serious Evaluation Report for Hexcel Corporation to incorporate the cost analysis for replacing the 8
thermal oxidizers with direct fired thermal oxidizers, and update the technological feasibility analysis for 9
the implementation of a De-NOx water system to the DFTO. 10
