PROCESS DESCRIPTION: Oil and gas products are brought to the surface. These products go through a separator where the oil and any water products are sent to storage tanks and the gas is used to power equipment on site (pump jack engine, tank heater, separator, flare, combustor, etc.) Any remaining gas is sent to a pipeline that feeds a local gas plant. The oil and process water in the storage tanks is loaded into tanker trucks and hauled off site for processing and disposal. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS: Utah Administrative Code (UAC) R307-500 Series for the Oil and Gas Industry, and UAC R307-201: Emission Standards: General Emission Standards; and UAC R307-150: Emission Inventories. SOURCE EVALUATION: Site Type: PBR-Uncontrolled No Flare Controls, Site has Line Power. The source registered: 2,901 Estimated Oil BBL. , - 2 DOGM current 12 month rolling production is: 30 BBL's Utah Statute R307-506 requires a source with throughput greater than 8,000 BBLs to have controls. REGISTERED EQUIPMENT Engine - Pneumatic, Tank General Provisions Visible emissions are within the following opacity limits: VOC Control Devices and Gasoline engines 0%, Diesel engines 20%, Natural Gas Engines and Boilers, Treater burners & Tank burners 10%, Mobile source dust 10%. [ R307-201-3] In Compliance. No visible emissions were detected during evaluation. VOC emissions are, at all times, minimized as reasonably practicable by equipment design, maintenance and operation practices. [R307-501-4(1)] In Compliance. Uncontrolled source. All other internal tank battery components appear to meet emission standard. All natural gas-driven pneumatic controllers are in compliance with 40CFR 60.5390 or 60.5390a as applicable. Tagging and record keeping requirements are not required. [R307-502-4] In Compliance. This source does not use continuous bleed controllers.

Thief hatches are kept closed and latched. [R307-506-4(1)] In Compliance. All hatches were found closed at the start of the evaluation. Associated gas is routed to a process unit for combustion, a sales pipeline or an operating VOC control device, except in an emergency. An emergency release is unanticipated, temporary, infrequent, unavoidable, =24 hrs. and is not due to operator negligence. Low pressure gas from working loss, breathing loss and oil flashing is not "associated gas". [R307-511-4(1)] In Compliance. Associated gas found properly routed to pipeline at the time of inspection. Emission Inventory An emissions inventory has been submitted within the past three years. [R307-150-9(1)] In Compliance. The operator submitted for the 2023 emissions inventory.
