Project Description
Kinder Morgan has requested to update the Bluebell Compressor Station (CS) as follows:
-Installation of a flare (FL-1) to control emissions from existing condensate tanks CS T-211, CS T-212,
CS T-213, and CS T-214
-Replacement of existing combustor (COM-2) with a flare (FL-2) to control emissions from existing
condensate tanks GPP TK-870 and GPP-TK-874
-Update represented potential to emit from condensate truck loading activities
Process Description
The Bluebell Gas Plant's functions to dehydrate field gas and extract NGLs. Field gas enters the facility
through trunk lines. The inlet gas stream is directed to the slug catcher, where free water and condensate
are separated from the field gas. The water and condensate are directed to the existing storage tanks
before being trucked from the facility.
Field gas from the slug catcher is directed to the inlet compressors. Any liquid collected from the second
and third stage inlet compressor scrubbers is directed to an intermediate 3-phase flash separator (V-405).
The condensate from V-405 is routed to tanks GPP-870 and GPP-874, which are controlled with a
combustor.
After compression Ethylene Glycol (EG) is injected into the gas to prevent hydrates from forming prior to
the gas going through a series of heat exchangers and a propane chiller to cool down the gas. EG and
NGL are separated from the gas in the cold separator. The rich EG is sent to a flash tank, where free gas is
separated and sent to a combustor for control. The EG is then sent to a regenerator. Water vapor from the
EG regenerator is sent to TK-837, where the uncondensed vapor is controlled by a combustor. NGLs are
then sent to a de-ethanizer tower, where light end hydrocarbons are removed and sent to the fuel gas
system. The NGL is then sent to pressurized bullet tanks for storage prior to being trucked off site.
The Bluebell Gas Plant and the Bluebell CS is equipped with a flare to manage unplanned pressure relief
events, planned and unplanned maintenance activities, and plant emergency shutdowns.

General Description
Kinder Morgan Altamont LLC (Kinder Morgan), Bluebell Gas Plant's functions are to dehydrate field gas
and extract NGL's. Field gas enters the facility through trunk lines that combine into the main facility
inlet. The inlet gas stream is directed to the slug catcher, where free water and condensate are separated
from the field gas. The water and condensate are directed to the existing storage tanks before being
trucked from the facility. The Bluebell Compressor Station is designed to compress, treat, and dehydrate
up to 30 MMscfd of natural gas and generate up to 278 bpd of condensate.

Project Description
Kinder Morgan has requested to update the Bluebell Compressor Station (CS) as follows:
-Installation of a flare (FL-1) to control emissions from existing condensate tanks CS T-211, CS T-212,
CS T-213, and CS T-214
-Replacement of the existing combustor (COM-2) with a flare (FL-2) to control emissions from existing
condensate tanks Gas Processing Plant (GPP) TK-870 and GPP-TK-874
-Update represented potential to emit from condensate truck loading activities
Process Description
The Bluebell Gas Plant's functions are to dehydrate field gas and extract NGLs. Field gas enters the
facility through trunk lines. The inlet gas stream is directed to the slug catcher, where free water and
condensate are separated from the field gas. The water and condensate are directed to the existing storage
tanks before being trucked from the facility.
Field gas from the slug catcher is directed to the inlet compressors. Any liquid collected from the second
and third stage inlet compressor scrubbers is directed to an intermediate 3-phase flash separator (V-405).
The condensate from V-405 is routed to tanks GPP-870 and GPP-874, which are controlled with a
combustor.
After compression Ethylene Glycol (EG) is injected into the gas to prevent hydrates from forming prior to
the gas going through a series of heat exchangers and a propane chiller to cool down the gas. EG and
NGL are separated from the gas in the cold separator. The rich EG is sent to a flash tank, where free gas
is separated and sent to a combustor for control. The EG is then sent to a regenerator. Water vapor from
the EG regenerator is sent to TK-837, where the uncondensed vapor is controlled by a combustor. NGLs
are then sent to a de-ethanizer tower, where light-end hydrocarbons are removed and sent to the fuel gas
system. The NGL is then sent to pressurized bullet tanks for storage prior to being trucked off site.
The Bluebell Gas Plant and the Bluebell CS are equipped with a flare to manage unplanned pressure relief
events, planned and unplanned maintenance activities, and plant emergency shutdowns.

Project Proposal
Modification to Approval Order DAQE-AN102190015-21, to Update Equipment and Emissions
Project Description
Kinder Morgan has requested to update the Bluebell Compressor Station (CS) as follows:
-Installation of a flare (FL-1) to control emissions from existing condensate tanks CS T-211, CS
T-212, CS T-213, and CS T-214
-Replacement of existing combustor (COM-2) with a flare (FL-2) to control emissions from
existing condensate tanks GPP TK-870 and GPP-TK-874
-Update represented potential to emit from condensate truck loading activities
Process Description
The Bluebell Gas Plant's functions to dehydrate field gas and extract NGL's. Field gas enters the
facility through trunk lines. The inlet gas stream is directed to the slug catcher where free water
and condensate are separated from the field gas. The water and condensate are directed to the
existing storage tanks before being trucked from the facility.
Field gas from the slug catcher is directed to the inlet compressors. Any liquid collected from the
second and third stage inlet compressor scrubbers is directed to an intermediate 3-phase flash

separator V-405. The condensate from V-405 is routed to tanks GPP-870 and GPP-874, which are
controlled with a combustor.
After compression Ethylene Glycol (EG) is injected into the gas to prevent hydrates from forming
prior to the gas going through a series of heat exchangers and a propane chiller to cool down the
gas. EG and NGL are separated from the gas in the cold separator. The rich EG is sent to a flash
tank where free gas is separated and sent to a combustor for control. The EG is then sent to a
regenerator. Water vapor from the EG regenerator is sent to TK-837 where the uncondensed
vapor is controlled by a combustor. NGLs are then sent to a de-ethanizer tower where light end
hydrocarbons are removed and sent to the fuel gas system. The NGL is then sent to pressurized
bullet tanks for storage prior to being trucked off site.
The Bluebell Gas Plant and the Bluebell CS is equipped with a flare to manage unplanned
pressure relief events, planned and unplanned maintenance activities, and plant emergency
shutdowns.
EMISSION IMPACT ANALYSIS
Modeling is not required as per R307-410-4 and R307-410-5.

Review of BACT for New/Modified Emission Units
1. BACT review regarding BACT
A BACT analysis was conducted and reviewed VOCs from liquid storage tanks and tank truck
loading operations. The equipment reviewed included the three (3) existing condensate storage
tanks and existing pit tank on the compressor station side of the facility, the two (2) existing
condensate tanks on the gas plant side of the facility, and truck loading operations.
The VOC emissions from condensate storage tanks and tank truck loading operations include
capture and control. BACT for the condensate tanks operations using a tanker truck is the use of
bottom filling or submerged fill pipe techniques. BACT to control VOC emissions from the liquid
storage tanks and tank truck loading operations is the capture of emissions and routing to a flare or
combustor. [Last updated March 7, 2024]

PERMIT HISTORY
When issued, the approval order shall supersede (if a modification) or will be based on the
following documents:
Is Derived From NOI dated December 20, 2023
Supersedes DAQE-AN102190015-21 dated June 7, 2021
REVIEWER COMMENTS
1. Comment regarding Emission Estimates:
The emissions from this modification involved the use of Promax model to determine the emissions
(flashing losses, standing losses, and working losses) coming from the operation of the condensate
storage tanks. The emissions from the condensate storage tanks are being routed to either a flare or
combustor with a destruction efficiency of 98%.
The truck loading emissions from the condensate tanks used emissions factors from AP-42 Table
5.2-1 with these emissions being routed to a flare.
The flare/combustor emissions from the condensate tanks and truck loading used AP-42, Chapter 13,
section 5, Tables 13.5 along with the emissions being controlled with a 98% destruction efficiency.
[Last updated March 7, 2024]
2. Comment regarding Project Type:
This project is being conducted as a permit modification, UAC R307-401-5. Since this permit action
involves an emission increase, this action must be conducted as a modification. A BACT analysis
was conducted on the condensate operation operations (condensate tanks working and breathing
operations, and condensate truck loading). [Last updated February 21, 2024]
3. Comment regarding Flare Operations:
In July 2023, Kinder Morgan conducted an environmental self-audit at the Bluebell Facility that
included on-site measurements of condensate tank emissions. Tanks included in the measurement
study were CS T-211 through T-214, GPP TK-870, and GPP TK-874. Kinder Morgan performed an
analysis and review of these measurements and determined the resulting VOC emissions exceed the
currently permitted emission rates.
Kinder Morgan notified Utah Department of Environmental Quality (UDAQ) on August 2, 2023, a
flare was installed and began operation on September 7, 2023, to control emissions from condensate
tanks CS T-211 through CS T-214 as a Reduction of Air Pollutants UAC R307-401-12. Kinder
Morgan also replaced the existing combustor (COM-2) with a flare (FL-2) to control emissions from
condensate tanks GPP TK-870 and GPP TK-874 as a Replacement in kind UAC R307-401-11. [Last
updated February 21, 2024]
4. Comment regarding Updated Emission Factors:
During the environmental self-audit, it was determined that the VOC emissions from the condensate
operations (condensate tanks working and breathing operations, and condensate truck loading) were
underestimated. Kinder Morgan has requested to update the emissions associated with the
condensate operations. The updated emissions for the entire project (updated emissions and addition
of a Flare (F-1)) are as follows; +1.10 TPY of NOX, +5.24 TPY of CO, +1.48 TPY of VOC, +0.01
TPY of SO2, +0.14 TPY of PM10/PM2.5, +0.01 TPY of Single HAP, +0.06 TPY of combined HAPs,
Engineer Review N102190018: Kinder Morgan Altamont LLC - Bluebell Facility
March 15, 2024
Page 15
and +1,895 TPY of CO2e. The updated emissions increase does not change any classification or
require an impact analysis by the source. [Last updated February 21, 2024]
5. Comment regarding Nonattainment Area:
Kinder Morgan, Bluebell facility is in the Uintah Basin Ozone Marginal Nonattainment Area. The
Kinder Morgan, Bluebell facility is classified as a major source and all emissions increase are below
significant emissions levels (40 CFR 51.165(a)(1) (x)) so this increase is classified as a minor
modification at a major source. [Last updated March 7, 2024]
6. Comment regarding Federal Requirement :
The Kinder Morgan, Bluebell facility is a natural gas processing plant, as defined in §60.5430a, and
commenced construction after September 8, 2015. This makes the Bluebell facility subject 40 CFR
OOOOa, 60.5400a through 50.5402a (Equipment Leaks at Onshore Natural Gas Processing Plants)
apply to all associated equipment located at the gas plant. [Last updated February 21, 2024]
7. Comment regarding Combination of the CS and GPP Site :
Kinder Morgan has constructed the GPP on the north fence line of the CS. The Kinder Morgan
Bluebell GPP meets the requirements of constructing adjacent to the CS and is owned and operated
by the same company. Both facilities (GPP and CS) operate independently, but both facilities have
the same first two digits SIC code. The combination of the two facilities classifies the Kinder
Morgan Bluebell Facility as a major source requiring a Title V permit.
This facility has two different independent operations at the facility. The Standard Industrial
Classification Codes that are used for the permit is SICC 1321 (gas plant) and 1311 (compressor
station). [Last updated March 7, 2024]

B. Assumptions
1. Topography/Terrain
The Plant is at an elevation 5630 feet with terrain features that have an affect on
concentration predictions.
a. Zone: 12 b. Approximate Location: UTM (NAD83): 577604 meters East 4470289 meters North 2. Urban or Rural Area Designation After a review of the appropriate 7.5 minute quadrangles, it was concluded the area is “rural” for air modeling purposes. 3. Ambient Air It was determined the Plant boundary used in the AQIA meets the State’s definition of ambient air. 4. Building Downwash The source was modeled with the AERMOD model. All structures at the plant were used in the model to account for their influence on downwash. 5. Meteorology Five (5) years of off-site surface and upper air data were used in the analysis consisting of the following: Surface – Vernal Airport UT NWS: 2016-2020 Upper Air – Grand Junction, CO NWS: 2016-2020 6. Background
The background concentrations were based on concentrations measured in Roosevelt, Utah. 7. Receptor and Terrain Elevations
The modeling domain used by the Applicant consisted of receptors including property
boundary receptors. This area of the state contains mountainous terrain and the modeling
domain has simple and complex terrain features in the near and far fields. Therefore,
receptor points representing actual terrain elevations from the area were used in the
analysis.

Introduction
1.1 Background & Project Description
On July 3, 2018 Approval Order DAQE-AN10219001-18 (AO) was issued to Kinder Morgan
Altamont LLC (Kinder Morgan), authorizing construction of the Bluebell Gas Plant adjacent to the
existing Bluebell Compressor Station. The gas plant and compressor station are referred to as the
Bluebell Facility in DAQE-AN10219001-18. The Bluebell Facility was commenced operation in
September of 2019. Approval Order DAQE-AN102190013-20 was issued for the installation of
one additional refrigeration compressor and to reflect equipment updates. Approval Order
DAQE-AN102190015-21 was issued on June 7, 2021 to update equipment and emissions.
In July 2023, Kinder Morgan initiated an environmental self-evaluation of condensate tank
emissions at the Bluebell Facility that included on-site measurements of condensate tank vent
gasses performed by a third-party consultant. Tanks included in the measurement study were:
CS T-211 through T-214, GPP TK-870, and GPP TK-874. Kinder Morgan performed an analysis and
review of these measurements and determined the resulting VOC emissions exceed the currently
permitted emission rates.
As proposed in the voluntary disclosure correspondence submitted by Kinder Morgan to Utah
Department of Environmental Quality (UDAQ) on August 2, 2023, a flare was installed and began
operation on September 7, 2023 to control emissions from condensate tanks CS T-211 through
CS T-214. Additionally, the existing combustor (COM-2) was replaced with a flare to control
emissions from condensate tanks GPP TK-870 and GPP TK-874 on September 11, 2023.
Kinder Morgan is submitting this Notice of Intent (NOI) to reflect the updated facility operations
at the Bluebell Facility. Table 1-1 shows the units to be added or modified.

Site Process & Project Review
3.1 Post-Project Process Description
The Bluebell Facility’s primary function is to dehydrate field gas and extract Natural Gas Liquids
(NGL). Field gas enters the facility via various trunk lines that combine into the main facility inlet.
The inlet gas stream is directed to a slug catcher where free water and condensate are separated
from the field gas. The water and condensate are directed to the existing storage tanks CS T-211,
T-212, T-213, and T-214, located at the former Bluebell Compressor Station before being trucked
from the facility. Emissions from these storage tanks, which were previously uncontrolled, will
now be controlled with a flare (FL-1).
Field gas from the slug catcher is directed to the inlet compressors. Any liquid collected from the
second and third stage inlet compressor scrubbers is directed to an intermediate 3-phase flash
separator V-405 (which is an enclosed vessel with zero emissions). The condensate from V-405 is
routed to tanks GPP-870 and GPP-874, which were previously controlled with a combustor (COM-
2); however, will now be controlled with a flare (FL-2).
After compression Ethylene Glycol (EG) is injected into the gas to prevent hydrates from forming
prior to the gas going through a series of heat exchangers and a propane chiller to cool down the
gas. EG and NGL are separated from the gas in the cold separator. The Rich EG is sent to a flash
tank where free gas is separated and sent to a combustor for control. The EG is then sent to a
regenerator. Water vapor from the EG regenerator is sent to TK-837 where the uncondensed
vapor is controlled by a combustor. NGLs are then sent to a de-ethanizer tower where light end
hydrocarbons are removed and sent to the fuel gas system. The NGL is then sent to pressurized
bullet tanks for storage prior to being trucked off site.
The Bluebell Gas Plant and the Bluebell Compressor Station is equipped with a flare (FL-1001) to
manage unplanned pressure relief events, planned and unplanned maintenance activities, and
plant emergency shut downs.

3.2 Project Emissions Information
Kinder Morgan ran refined Promax process simulations using an updated liquid analysis for the
facility’s existing operations. While there are no proposed changes to the facility’s permitted
condensate throughput, the updated liquid analysis and newly installed control devices resulted
in emissions changes for the existing condensate tanks and truck load-out operation. The facility’s
storage and load-out operations will be a potential source of volatile organic compounds (VOC),
HAPs, and GHG emissions. A summary of the facility’s existing site-wide potential to emit (PTE),
project emissions changes, and new site-wide PTE are provided in Table 3-1 below. Detailed air
emissions calculations for the project are provided in Appendix D and Appendix F.

[2] Formaldehyde is the highest single HAP.
In accordance with UAC R307-410-5, Kinder Morgan evaluated if the proposed HAP emission
increases would trigger the need to conduct an ambient air impact analysis (air dispersion
modeling). Based on procedures established in UDAQ’s Emissions Impact Assessment Guidelines,
the proposed HAP emission increases do not exceed the applicable Emission Threshold Values
for which an air dispersion modeling analysis would be required. In addition, based on UDAQ’s
Emission Impact Assessment Guidelines, the total controlled project emission rates are below
the emission thresholds of UAC R307-410-4.
Therefore, no further impacts analyses are necessary for criteria pollutants of HAPs. Detailed
emissions calculations and the impacts analysis are provided in Appendix F.

Section 5
Best Available Control Technology (BACT) Review
Utah Administrative Code R307-401-5(2)(d) requires the NOI to include a BACT analysis for the
proposed source(s) and/or modification(s) to existing sources. The sources subject to a BACT
analysis include the three (3) existing condensate storage tanks and existing pit tank on the
compressor station side of the facility, the two (2) existing condensate tanks on the gas plant side
of the facility, two (2) new flares, and truck loading operations.
5.1 Organic Liquid Storage Tank Vents
The vapors from the existing condensate storage tanks will be collected with an enclosed vapor
collection system and directed to a flare, which has a VOC destruction efficiency of 98% or
greater. The vapor collection system and flare arrangement for this type of source constitutes
BACT.
5.2 Tank Truck Loading Operation
Current truck loading requirements in R307-504 establish specific control requirements for the
loading and unloading of liquids containing VOCs at oil or gas well sites. These control
requirements include the use of bottom fill or submerged fill pipe as well as a “Vapor Capture
Line” from the truck.
The Bluebell Facility is not co-located with or directly associated with one or more oil wells or gas
wells and therefore is not considered a “Well production facility” or a “well site” as described in
R307-504, R307-506 or 40 CFR §60.5430a in NSPS Subpart OOOOa. Liquids will be removed from
the condensate tanks using a tanker truck that utilizes bottom filling or submerged fill pipe
techniques. The loading operations will continue to employ bottom filling which constitutes
BACT.
