34.32 tons per rolling 12-month period of VOCs.
0.11 tons per rolling 12-month period of formaldehyde.
5.17 tons per rolling 12-month period of glycol ethers.
1.51 tons per rolling 12-month period of methanol.
0.27 tons per rolling 12-month period of vinyl acetate.
7.06 tons per rolling 12-month period of all HAPs combined.
[R307-401-8]
II.B.5.a.1 The owner/operator shall calculate a new 12-month total by the 20th day of each month using
data from the previous 12 months. The owner/operator shall use a mass-balance method to
calculate emissions from evaporative sources. The owner/operator may use the following
equations with applicable units to comply with the mass-balance method:
VOCs = [% VOCs by Weight/100] x [Density] x [Volume Consumed]
HAP* = [% HAP by Weight/100] x [Density] x [Volume Consumed]
*18% of formaldehyde, vinyl acetate, and glycol ethers in the adhesive will emit to the
atmosphere; therefore, emissions for these HAPs shall be calculated as 18% multiplied by the
above equation using the mass-balance method.
[R307-401-8]
II.B.5.a.2 The owner/operator shall use a mass-balance method to quantify any amount of VOCs and HAPs
reclaimed. The owner/operator shall subtract the amount of VOCs and HAPs reclaimed from the
quantities calculated above to provide the monthly total emissions of VOCs and HAPs.

SUMMARY OF EMISSIONS
I
I
Review of BACT for New/lVlodified Emission Units
BACT review resardin Adhesive Aoolications
VOC and flAP emissions are produced when adhesives are applied during door assembly.
Available capture systems for VOCs and IIAPS include carbon absorbers and thermal oxidizers.
Specific pick-up vents and enclosures required to effectively use these capture systems are difficult
to implement due to the nature ofdoor manufacturing. VOC emissions are released as the doors
are glued, pressed, and cured. In order to effectively use pick-up vents, capture devices would be
required at several locations which would be cost prohibitive. The curing process is conducted on a
conveyor system making the use of enclosures infeasible. Therefore, capture systems for VOC and
HAP emissions are considered to be technicallv infeasible.
BAC'I' for VOC and HAP emissions is best operating practices. Best operating practices include
the use of low VOC adhesives and the use ofan automated spreader that achieves a minimum
transfer efficiency of 65%. BAC'I is also complying with UAC Rule R307-342. Adhesives and
Sealants.

REVIEWER COMMENTS
Comment resardins Adhesive Emission Calculations:
VOC and IIAP emissions were estimated using a mass balance approach. HAP emission factors
were determined using the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality's (VDEQ) Permit
Boilerplate Procedures for Wood Furniture and Fixtures Manufacturing Facilities. These emission
factors are used for calculations at all Steves' facilitics throughout the country as well as in the
previous AO DAQE-1 6 I 02000 I -22.
Using the VDEQ document, calculations assume l8% offormaldehyde, vinyl acetate, and glycol
ethers will emit to the atmosphere during adhesive application. The remaining 82% ofthese HAPs
will remain in the adhesive. There is no guidance for methanol in the VDEQ document, so it is
conservatively assumed that l00o/o of methanol in the adhesive will be emitted to the atmosphere.

Review of BACT for New/Modified Emission Units
1. BACT review regarding Adhesive Applications
VOC and HAP Emissions
VOC and HAP emissions are produced when adhesives are applied during door assembly.
Available capture systems for VOCs and HAPS include carbon absorbers and thermal oxidizers.
Specific pick-up vents and enclosures required to effectively use these capture systems are difficult
to implement due to the nature of door manufacturing. VOC emissions are released as the doors
are glued, pressed, and cured. In order to effectively use pick-up vents, capture devices would be
required at several locations which would be cost prohibitive. The curing process is conducted on a
conveyor system making the use of enclosures infeasible. Therefore, capture systems for VOC and
HAP emissions are considered to be technically infeasible.
BACT for VOC and HAP emissions is best operating practices. Best operating practices include
the use of low VOC adhesives and the use of an automated spreader that achieves a minimum
transfer efficiency of 65%. BACT is also complying with UAC Rule R307-342. Adhesives and
Sealants.

PERMIT HISTORY
When issued, the approval order shall supersede (if a modification) or will be based on the
following documents:
Supersedes AO DAQE-AN161020001-22 dated December 23, 2022
Is Derived From NOI dated April 1, 2024
REVIEWER COMMENTS
1. Comment regarding Adhesive Emission Calculations:
VOC and HAP emissions were estimated using a mass balance approach. HAP emission factors
were determined using the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality's (VDEQ) Permit
Boilerplate Procedures for Wood Furniture and Fixtures Manufacturing Facilities. These emission
factors are used for calculations at all Steves' facilities throughout the country as well as in the
previous AO DAQE-161020001-22.
Using the VDEQ document, calculations assume 18% of formaldehyde, vinyl acetate, and glycol
ethers will emit to the atmosphere during adhesive application. The remaining 82% of these HAPs
will remain in the adhesive. There is no guidance for methanol in the VDEQ document, so it is
conservatively assumed that 100% of methanol in the adhesive will be emitted to the atmosphere.

3. Comment regarding Title V Applicability:
Title V of the 1990 Clean Air Act (Title V) applies to the following:
1. Any major source
2. Any source subject to a standard, limitation, or other requirement under Section 111 of the Act,
Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources;
3. Any source subject to a standard or other requirement under Section 112 of the Act, Hazardous

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Steves and Sons, Inc. (Steves), is a company that manufactures doors at facilities throughout the United
States. Steves’ wood door manufacturing facility located at 1080 North Main St. Brigham City, Utah, 31714
(the Brigham City facility) operates in accordance with approval order (AO) DAQE-AN161020001-22. Steves
is proposing to update their permit by increasing the Brigham City facility’s adhesive usage. As a result,
Steves is submitting this Notice of intent (NOI) air permit application to the Utah Division of Air Quality
(UDAQ) for the modification of their air permit. The current permit adequately accounts for all other raw
materials and overall production. Thus, Steves is not proposing to increase overall door production or any
other process outside of adhesive application with this NOI air permit application.
The proposed project will incur an increase in the site’s potential to emit (PTE) of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), resulting from the increased adhesive usage. The
proposed project increase in PTE for the Brigham City facility is 6.95 tons per year (tpy) of VOCs and 1.55
tpy of HAPs.
The Brigham City facility is located in Box Elder County, which is classified as attainment for all pollutants
with the exception of particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 microns or less (PM2.5)
and its precursors. In 2016, portions of Box Elder County were designated as serious nonattainment. As a
result, the major source threshold (MST) for PM2.5 and its precursors are 70 tons per year (tpy) for nitrogen
oxides (NOX), sulfur dioxide (SO2), VOCs, and ammonia (NH3).1
The MST for Prevention of Significant Deterioration of Air Quality (PSD) applicability is 250 tpy, unless the
source is included on a list of 28 specifically defined industrial source categories, for which the PSD major
source threshold is 100 tpy.2 The Brigham City facility is classified as a ,
which is not one of the 28 listed source categories. As such, the PSD major source threshold is 250 tpy for
any New Source Review (NSR) regulated pollutant. The PTE of the PSD pollutants do not exceed 250 tpy;
therefore, the Brigham City facility will not be considered a major source under PSD. It will continue to be a
minor source under NSR.
This NOI air permit modification application has been developed pursuant to Utah Administrative Code
(UAC) R307-401-5 and UDAQ’s application guidance, and includes, but is not limited to:
NOI Air Permit Application Forms and Fees;
Process Description;
PTE Calculations;

3. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND PROCESS
3.1 Description of Project
The Brigham City facility manufactures solid-core and hollow-core wooden doors made to order. Air
emissions from the facility are due to woodworking, adhesive application, and painting operations. Steves is
seeking to increase its adhesive usage. The current permit adequately accounts for the facility’s door
production, including the associated generation of dust and the use of primer and paints. However, it does
not adequately account for adhesive usage. This has only been determined in the time that the facility has
been in operation, through actual operations. Adhesive usage is consequently proposed to be increased
under this NOI air permit application so that the facility may meet its design production values.
The emission sources that will be covered in this NOI air permit application include the following:
Fugitive VOC emissions resulting from the door assembly process; and
Fugitive HAP emissions resulting from the door assembly process.
3.2 Description of Process
3.2.1 Receiving
Raw materials for door manufacturing are delivered to the Brigham City facility by truck and are unloaded
and stored inside of the facility. Raw materials received include the following: cores, stiles, rails, skins,
cardboard, foam, primer, and adhesive. Primer and adhesive are provided in totes and are sealed until
needed. All received raw materials do not have the ability to emit any air pollutants during unloading.
3.2.2 Processing & Builds
Received raw materials are processed prior to being utilized in the door building process. Cores are routed
such that molded skins will fit the doors. Stiles and rails are cut down to size using saws with dust control
pick-up points routed to the cyclone and baghouse. Foam sheets and skins are also cut down to size for
each specific door type. All the scrap from the core, stiles, rails, foam sheets, and skins goes to disposal.
The doors are built by taking the cores, stiles, rails, foam, and skins and using an adhesive to assemble the
door parts together. The adhesives used emit VOCs and HAPs. After the parts are glued and the doors are
built, they are pressed for 30 minutes to allow the glue to dry before moving them. After pressing, the doors
are sent to the dry line for some time prior to sizing.
3.2.3 Sizing & Finishing
Once the doors have dried, they move to sizing where excess material can be cut down to actual customer
specification. Sizers at the facility cut excess material and sands in a two-pass operation. Doors pass
through the sizer stile-side first, then rail side. Pallets for the doors are manually made to size by pallet
builders, and the off-bearers manually lay down a board, then a pallet, and then a sheet of cardboard to
protect the sized door. Then the off-bearers remove the sized door off the sizer and stack it on the pallet.
All dust is collected using equipment-specific, dust-control pickup points before being sent to the cyclone
and dust collector.
The finishing process includes painting the doors in one (1) of two (2) paint booths. Doors are painted with
primer on three (3) sides, with the label side of the door rail left unpainted. Doors are allowed to dry and
Steves and Sons / NOI Air Permit Application
Trinity Consultants 3-2
electrical heaters aid in the drying process. Once dry, the stiles are buffed smooth and the doors are
checked for any needed repairs. Various machining is performed per customer specification (e.g., hinges,
knob holes, etc.).
3.2.4 Shipping
Wrapped doors are picked up at one (1) of two (2) wrap stations on site. Doors are stacked in rows inside
of the facility while awaiting pickup. When trucks arrive to pick up, the doors are loaded under cover and
placed into the back of trucks. There are no expected emissions from these operations.
Refer to Figure 3-1 for a simplified process flow diagram. The proposed increase in adhesive usage will
occur in the “Glue Application” step.

4. EMISSIONS RELATED INFORMATION
This section details the methodology used to calculate controlled and uncontrolled emissions for criteria
pollutants and HAPs associated with the relevant process and its associated fugitives as regulated by R307-
401-5(2)(b). Detailed emission calculation tables are included in Appendix B. Additionally, a comparison to
major source thresholds is conducted.
4.1 Adhesive Application – VOC and HAP Emissions
Emissions from adhesive usage include VOC and HAP emissions. All adhesives are applied inside the
Brigham City facility but are likely to volatilize and be emitted from the facility through its ventilation system
on the roof. VOC and HAP emissions were estimated using a mass balance approach assuming adhesives
were to operate at maximum capacity and using HAP emission rates provided by Virginia DEQ: Permit
Boilerplate Procedures for Wood Furniture and Fixtures Manufacturing Facilities.3 These emission factors
were also used to maintain consistency across Steves’ facilities throughout the country. This is the same
process used to estimate VOC and HAP emissions in the current AO.
Annual VOC emissions are given by:

5. BACT ANALYSIS
In the State of Utah, under R307-401-5(2)(d), Notice of Intent, every facility, operation, or process that
proposes any activity that would emit an air contaminant into the air, must consider BACT for a proposed
new source or modification.4 The below BACT analysis only addresses units which will be modified, installed,
or otherwise addressed in this NOI air permit application.
In a memorandum dated December 1, 1987, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
stated its preference for a “top-down” BACT analysis.5 After determining if any New Source Performance
Standard (NSPS) is applicable, the first step in this approach is to determine, for the emission unit in
question, the most stringent control available for a similar or identical source or source category. If it can be
shown that this level of control is technically, environmentally, or economically infeasible for the unit in
question, then the next most stringent level of control is determined and similarly evaluated. This process
continues until the BACT level under consideration cannot be eliminated by any substantial or unique
technical, environmental, or economic objections. Presented below are the five basic steps of a top-down
BACT review as identified by the EPA.
Presented below are the five steps of the top-down BACT review for adhesive application.
Step 1 – Identify All Control Technologies
Available control technologies are identified for each emission unit in question. The following methods are
used to identify potential technologies: 1) researching the RACT/BACT/LAER/Clearinghouse (RBLC)
database, 2) surveying regulatory agencies, 3) drawing from previous engineering experience, 4) surveying
air pollution control equipment vendors, and/or 5) surveying available literature.
Step 2 – Eliminate Technically Infeasible Options
The second step in the BACT analysis is to eliminate any technically infeasible control technologies. Each
control technology for each pollutant is considered, and those that are clearly technically infeasible are
eliminated. EPA states the following regarding technical feasibility:6
A demonstration of technical infeasibility should be clearly documented and should show, based on physical,
chemical, and engineering principles, that technical difficulties would preclude the successful use of the
control option on the emissions unit under review.
Step 3 – Rank Remaining Control Technologies by Control Effectiveness
Once technically infeasible options are removed from consideration, the remaining options are ranked based
on their control effectiveness. If there is only one remaining option or if all the remaining technologies could
achieve equivalent control efficiencies, ranking based on control efficiency is not required.

6 EPA, New Source Review Workshop Manual (Draft): Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Nonattainment Area
Permitting, October 1990.
Steves and Sons / NOI Air Permit Application
Trinity Consultants 5-2
Step 4 – Evaluate Most Effective Controls and Document Results
Beginning with the most effective control option in the ranking, detailed economic, energy, and
environmental impact evaluations are performed. If a control option is determined to be economically
feasible without adverse energy or environmental impacts, it is not necessary to evaluate the remaining
options with lower control effectiveness.
The economic evaluation centers on the cost effectiveness of the control option. Costs of installing and
operating control technologies are estimated and annualized following the methodologies outlined in the
EPA’s (CCM) and other industry resources.7 Note that the analysis is not
whether controls are affordable, but whether the expenditure is effective.
Step 5 – Select BACT
In the final step, one pollutant-specific control option is proposed as BACT for each emission unit under
review based on evaluations from the previous step.
The EPA has consistently interpreted the statutory and regulatory BACT definitions as containing two core
requirements that the agency believes must be met by any BACT determination, regardless of whether the
“top-down” approach is used. First, the BACT analysis must include consideration of the most stringent
available control technologies, i.e., those which provide the “maximum degree of emissions reduction.”
Second, any decision to require a lesser degree of emissions reduction must be justified by an objective
analysis of “energy, environmental, and economic impacts.”8
The UDAQ NOI Guide also details the requirement to achieve BACT as required in the State of Utah
permitting process. The proposed BACT must be based on the most effective engineering techniques and
control equipment to minimize emission of air contaminants into the outside environment from its process.
5.1 Adhesive Application VOC Emissions
5.1.1 Adhesive Application VOC Emissions Step 1 – Identify All Available Control
Technologies
The least-stringent emission rate allowable for BACT is any applicable limit under either NSPS – Part 60, or
NESHAP – Part 61. As described in Section 8, there are no applicable NSPS or NESHAP for the adhesive
application processes. Additionally, due to the unique nature of this operation, no relevant control
technology comparisons are given in either the RBLC or by similar air quality agencies.9 VOC control
technologies were identified based on research and extensive historic knowledge of common control
technologies used in similar manufacturing industries and/or VOC emitting processes.
To control VOC emissions, they must be effectively captured. Steves has considered the technical feasibility
of a capture system and best operating practices.

5.2.2 Adhesive Application VOC Emissions Step 2 – Eliminate Technically Infeasible
Options
Capture System
To implement a stand-alone control device, emissions must first be captured and routed to a central
location. The standard capture methods for product manufacturing can be broadly described as specific
pick-up vents and enclosures. Specific pick-up vents generally consist of a vacuum strategically placed over
the VOC-emitting process. For example, a fan located over a process tank, or a pick-up point located next to
a date coder. These pick-up vents generally have a high-capture efficacy because the emission rate at that
location is constant.
An enclosure entails boxing in the emissions with physical boundaries. Enclosures come in many forms but
are generally effective when the VOC emissions are generated within a relatively small space. Manufacturing
examples include ovens or other process-specific equipment.
VOC emissions from adhesive application are particularly difficult to capture, as the emissions evolve over a
4.5-hour period as doors are glued, pressed, and allowed to cure. Furthermore, the curing process is
conducted on a conveyor system within a warehouse. The large area over which the emissions evolve
prevents the use of a pick-up vent or enclosure smaller than the warehouse used for curing. If the air from
the entire warehouse were to be captured, the resulting air stream would have a very low VOC
concentration, rendering traditional stand-alone control technologies ineffective.
Due to the technical difficulties associated with the capture of VOCs, the control of these emissions through
the use of a centralized control device, such as a thermal oxidizer or carbon adsorber, has been determined
to be technically infeasible and eliminated as BACT.
Low VOC Adhesives
Many air quality agencies have established VOC concentration or material vapor pressure upper bounds
which limit the potential for VOC emissions from a facility. Often, these limits are established via process-
specific rules and limits given within the rule and are further specified to the exact type of application.
Compliance with these limits has been cited as established BACT in both the Bay Area Air Quality
Management District (BAAQMD) and the TCEQ. The State of Utah has established regulations similar to
those established by these agencies; specifically, R307-342 applies to this project.
As established in Section 8, , compliance with Utah regulations is technically feasible and
adhesive materials proposed meet the VOC concentration limits specified.
High-Efficiency Application Method
High-efficiency application methods ensure that VOC-containing substances are applied in ways that
minimize volatilization and usage. TCEQ lists high efficiency transfer application equipment as follows:
Utah rule R307-342 lists the following as reduced VOC application techniques:

Steves and Sons / NOI Air Permit Application
Trinity Consultants 5-4
Steves uses an automated spreader which achieves a minimum of 65% transfer efficiency.
5.2.3 Adhesive Application VOC Emissions Steps 3 through 5 – Select BACT
As all the feasible controls for the control of VOC emission from adhesive application are currently in use,
there is not a need to conduct further detailed economic, energy, and environmental impact evaluations. As
a result, Steves proposes that the use of low-VOC adhesives and high-efficiency application methods meets
the intent of BACT.

7. NONATTAINMENT/MAINTENANCE AREAS - OFFSETTING
7.1 Offset Applicability
7.1.1 PM2.5 Offsets
PM2.5 offsets are applicable for major modifications of sources located within or impacting a PM2.5
nonattainment area of the NAAQS. A major modification in a serious nonattainment area is defined in R307-
403-5(2)(c) as “a rate of emissions that would equal or exceed 10 tons per year (tpy) of direct PM2.5, 40 tpy
of sulfur dioxide, 40 tpy of nitrogen oxides, or 40 tpy of volatile organic compounds (VOC)”. The project
does not exceed the limits of PM2.5, SO2, NOX, or VOCs. It is therefore not subject to the offset requirements
of R307-403.
7.1.2 PM10 Offsets
PM10 offsets requirements are described in UAC R307-421-2. They apply to new or modified sources that are
located in or impact Salt Lake County or Utah County and increase SO2 or NOX by 25 tpy or more 12. The
Brigham City facility is located in Box Elder County and is therefore not subject to the PM10 offset
requirements of R307-403.
7.1.3 Ozone Offsets
Ozone offsets requirements recorded in UAC R307-420-3(2) and VOC offsets are applicable to significant
sources located within or impacting an ozone nonattainment area of the NAAQS.
The Brigham City facility is located in Box Elder County and is therefore not subject to ozone offset
requirements.

1. This rule is not specific to operational-compliance requirements and is therefore not discussed in this NOI air permit application.
8.1.1 UAC R307-101 General Requirements:
Chapter 19-2 and the rules adopted by the Air Quality Board constitute the basis for control of air pollution
sources in the state. These rules apply and will be enforced throughout the state and are recommended for
adoption in local jurisdictions where environmental specialists are available to cooperate in implementing rule
requirements.
NAAQS, NSPS, National PSD standards, and the NESHAP apply throughout the nation and are legally
enforceable in Utah.
Steves will comply and conform to the definitions, terms, abbreviations, and references used in the R307-
101 and 40 CFR.
8.1.2 UAC R307-107 General Requirements: Breakdowns
Steves will report breakdowns at its Brigham City facility within 24 hours via telephone, electronic mail, fax,
or other similar method and provide detailed written description within 14 days of the onset of the incident
Steves and Sons / NOI Air Permit Application
Trinity Consultants 8-5
to UDAQ. Breakdown reports will include all reporting details outlined in R307-107-2, including, but not
limited to, the cause and nature of the event, estimated quantity of emissions, and time of emissions.
8.1.3 UAC R307-150 Emission Inventories:
For every third year, the Brigham City facility will report its emissions inventory in accordance with R307-
150-6. The emissions inventory shall include all criteria pollutants, including filterable and condensable PM,
HAPs not exempted in R307-150-8, and chargeable pollutants in accordance with R307-150-6.
8.1.5 UAC R307-342 Adhesives and Sealants
This rule requires that no person apply any adhesive, sealant, adhesive primer, or sealant primer with a VOC
content in excess of the limits in Table 1 in the rule, unless that person uses an add-on control device. The
adhesive used by Steves is below each of these limits. Therefore, no add-on control devices are required.
Proper application technique requirements and administrative requirements will be met, including the
maintenance of records to demonstrate compliance with this rule.
8.1.6 UAC R307-343 Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations
This rule applies to sources with the following SIC codes: 2434, 2511, 2512, 2517, 2519, 2521, 2531, 2541,
2599, or 5712. The Brigham City facility is classified under 2431, , and is therefore not applicable to
this rule.
8.1.8 UAC R307-401-8: Permit New and Modified Sources - Approval Order
(1) The director will issue an approval order (AO) if all conditions and regulations have been met.
(a) The degree of pollution control for emissions, to include fugitive emissions and fugitive dust, is at
least best available control technology. When determining best available control technology for a new or
modified source in an attainment area that will emit VOC or NOX, best available control technology shall be
at least as stringent as any Control Technique Guidance document that has been published by EPA that is
applicable to the source.
(2) The Brigham City facility will require that all pollution control equipment be adequately and properly
maintained.
(3) Receipt of an AO does not relieve any owner or operator of the responsibility to comply with the
provisions of R307 or the State Implementation Plan.
BACT provisions specified in UAC R307-401 have been demonstrated in Section 5.
The Brigham City facility will comply with all applicable requirements detailed above.
8.2 Federal Rules: National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants
40 CFR Part 63 requires certain source categories to control HAPs emissions to the level achievable by the
Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT), or, in some cases, the Generally Applicable Control
Technology (GACT), as specified in the applicable subparts. Emissions standards and compliance
requirements are divided by source category based on PTE. The Brigham City facility is a true minor source
with respect to HAP emissions because it has a PTE of less than 10 tpy of a single HAP (e.g., glycol ether)
and 25 tpy of total HAPs.
Steves and Sons / NOI Air Permit Application
Trinity Consultants 8-6
8.2.1 NESHAP Subpart A – General Provisions
All affected sources subject to source-specific NESHAP are subject to the general provisions of NESHAP
Subpart A except where specifically exempted by the source-specific NESHAP. Subpart A requires initial
notification, performance testing, recordkeeping, and monitoring, provides reference methods, and
mandates general control device requirements for all other subparts, as applicable.
8.2.2 NESHAP Subpart JJ – Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations
This regulation applies to each facility that is engaged in the manufacture of wood furniture or wood
furniture components and that is located at a major source of HAP. As the Brigham City facility
manufactures doors and does not manufacture wood furniture, as defined in 40 CFR 63.801, this rule is not
applicable.
8.2.3 Non-Applicability of All Other NESHAP
The applicability of all other NESHAP subparts can be readily ascertained based on the industrial source
category covered. All other NESHAP are categorically not applicable to the facility.
8.3 Federal Rules: New Source Performance Standards
40 CFR Part 60 requires new, modified, or reconstructed sources with certain source categories to control
emissions to the level achievable by the best-demonstrated technology as specified in the applicable
subparts.
8.3.1 NSPS Subpart A – General Provisions
All affected sources subject to one (1) or more source-specific NSPS are subject to the general provisions of
NSPS Subpart A except where specifically exempted by the source-specific NSPS. Subpart A requires initial
notification, performance testing, recordkeeping, and monitoring, provides reference methods, and
mandates general control device requirements for all other subparts, as applicable.
8.3.2 Non-Applicability of All Other NSPS
The NSPS subparts at the time of this application are categorically not applicable to the facility.
