REVIEWER COMMENTS
1. Comment regarding emission calculations: For the new natural gas-fired boilers and heater, emission factors for criteria pollutants and HAPs are obtained from AP-42 Section 1.4. GHG emission factors are from 40 CFR Part 98 Subparts A and C. Natural gas consumption is based on the maximum equipment capacities running at 8,760 hrs per year. Emissions from the new equipment are added to the sitewide total emissions. During the review of this project, the source provided current HAP emissions without detailed emission calculations, which cannot be verified and would make HAP emissions less than the permitted in the current AO DAQE-AN102710005-22. Therefore, the permit engineer did not use
the provided HAP emissions. The new HAP PTEs are based on the sum of HAP emissions in the current AO and the HAP emissions from the new equipment. [Last updated May 8, 2025]
2. Comment regarding NSPS and MACT Applicability: 40 CFR 60 Subpart IIII; Standards of Performance for Stationary Compression Ignition Internal Combustion Engines. The source uses diesel-fired generator engines for emergency operations.
Therefore, the engines listed under II.A.6 and 7 are subject to the standard. 40 CFR 60 Subpart JJJJ; Standards of Performance for Stationary Spark Ignition Internal Combustion engines applies to engines installed after January 1, 2009 rated between 25 hp and 100 hp. The 60kW (80 hp) natural-gas fired emergency engine on-site was installed in September 2014, therefore Subpart JJJJ applies to this engine. Compliance with this subpart includes recordkeeping and reporting as well as meeting the emission limits of Table 1 for emergency engines rated between 25 hp and 100 hp. The 60-kW engine is certified to meet these emission rates by the manufacturer. 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ; National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines applies to stationary RICE at area sources of
HAPs installed after June 12, 2006. Subpart ZZZZ applies to this engine. Compliance with Subpart ZZZZ is met through compliance with NSPS Subparts IIII or JJJJ. 40 CFR 60 Subpart Dc; Standards of Performance for Small Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam Generating Units applies to gas-fired steam generating units greater than 10 MMBtu/hr.
Boilers #1-#3 are subject to this subpart.
40 CFR 63 Subpart JJJJJJ; National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers Area Sources applies to industrial, commercial, or institutional oil-fired boilers. SUU will not operate the boilers on oil fuels for greater than 48 hours per year outside of emergency situations (for testing, training, and maintenance) and therefore meet the subpart's definition of "gas-fired boilers." Gas fired boilers are not subject to Subpart JJJJJJ,
Engineer Review N102710007: Southern Utah University- Cedar City Campus May 8, 2025 Page 11
therefore, this subpart does not apply. [Last updated February 12, 2025]
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 Air Pollutants.
4. Any Title IV affected source.
This source is not a major source, or a Title IV affected source. The source is subject to NSPS Subparts IIII and JJJJ, and MACT Subpart ZZZZ. These Federal standards, however, exempt the source from the obligation to obtain a Title V permit, if the source is not otherwise subject to the Title V requirements. The source is also subject to NSPS Subpart Dc, however, there is no numerical standard in this subpart for the natural gas combustion equipment to comply with; the subpart only requires the source to keep records of natural gas consumption. Therefore, Title V does not apply to this facility [Last updated February 12, 2025]

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Southern Utah University (SUU) is a public, higher education institution with air emissions primarily due to
the operation of boilers, paint booths, and emergency generators located in Cedar City, UT. Cedar City is in
Iron County, which is currently classified as an attainment area for the National Ambient Air Quality
Standards (NAAQS) for all criteria pollutants. SUU currently operates Approval Order (AO) DAQE-
AN102710005-22, issued October 24, 2022.
SUU is currently constructing a new music building on campus, which will not be connected to the central
heating plant. With this Notice of Intent (NOI) air quality application, SUU proposes to install two (2) small
natural gas boilers to act as the primary heating source in the new music building. These boilers are slated
to run year-round and will provide heating for the whole building. In addition to the boilers, SUU proposes
to install one (1) natural gas water heater.
This NOI air quality application is being submitted in accordance with the Utah Division of Air Quality
(UDAQ) rules, Utah Administrative Code (UAC) R307-401, and includes all supporting documentation in
order to modify DAQE-AN102710005-22 and obtain authorization for the changes specified above. Appendix
B summarizes the emissions resulting from SUU after the proposed changes. As the requested addition does
not constitute a major modification, Utah offset requirements in accordance with UAC R3074203 and R307-
421-3 do not apply. Additionally, modeling requirements under UAC R307-410-4 and R307-410-5 do not
apply.

EMISSIONS RELATED INFORMATION
This section details the methodology used to calculate controlled and uncontrolled emissions for criteria
pollutants, GHGs, and HAPs associated with each new unit and its associated fugitives as regulated by R307-401-5(2)(b). Detailed emission calculation tables are included in Appendix B.
4.1 Natural-Gas Fired Equipment
Potential-to-emit (PTE) calculations for each of the criteria pollutants were carried out for the addition of
two (2) natural-gas-fired boilers along with one (1) natural-gas water heater. Calculations for the criteria
pollutants are based on the emission factor for each pollutant, the heat input, annual hours of operation,
and the higher heating value (HHV). The HHV for natural gas was obtained per AP-42 Chapter 1, Section
1.4. Emission factors (EF) for natural gas emissions were obtained from AP-42, Section 1.4 and the emission
factor for NH3 was obtained per EPA’s Final Report on Ammonia Emission Factors, Table 7-4. For the boilers,
the NOx emission factor was obtained from the vendor.
The following calculations were carried out for the boilers for NOX, CO, PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NH3 and VOCs.
Annual Emissions (lb/hr)=Heat Input �MMBtuhr�× EF �lbMMscf�/ HHV �1,020 MMBtu1 MMscf �
Annual Emissions (tpy)=Annual Emissions �lbhr�× Annual Operation �8760 hryr�× �1 ton2,000 lb�
4.2 GHG Emissions
GHG pollutants expected to be emitted from the equipment include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
and nitrous oxide (N2O). Standard emission factors for CO2, N2O and CH4 are provided in 40 CFR Part 98, Subpart C, Table C-1 and Table C-2. The global warming potential for each relevant pollutant is obtained
from 40 CFR Part 98, Subpart A, Table A-1. Calculations for GHG pollutants are based on the emission factor
for each GHG pollutant, relevant global warming potential, annual hours of operation, the maximum heat input, and the HHV.
CO2e Annual Emissions (tpy)=�Emission Factor CO2 �lbMMBtu�+Emission Factor CH4 �lbMMscf�× GWP CH4+Emission Factor N2O �lbMMBtu�× GWP N2O� × �Heat Input�MMbtuhr��
× Operating Hours �hryr�× �1 ton2,000 lb�
4.3 HAP Emissions
SUU / NOI Air Permit Application Trinity Consultants 4-4
HAP emissions were determined using the heat input, the HHV and annual hours of operation. Emission
factors for HAPs are obtained from AP-42, Section 1.4, Table 1.4-3. HAP Annual Emission Rate (tpy)=Emission Factor �lbMMscf�× Heat Input�MMBtuhr�HHV �1020 MMBtuMMscf�× Annual Operation �hryr �× �1 ton2,000 lbs�

BEST AVAILABLE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY 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.1 The below BACT analysis only addresses units which will be modified, installed,
or otherwise affected by this NOI air permit application.
5.1 Small Natural Gas Units
As the proposed units are each rated at less than the 5 MMBtu/hr exemption limit in R307-401-10(1), and
exempt per UDAQ guidance, Source Category Exemption published March 6, 2017, a BACT analysis is not
required for this equipment. UDAQ has generally established low NOx technology as BACT for boiler units of this size, this technology typically represents an emission rate between 20 and 55 ppm. The proposed SUU
natural gas boilers and water heater have a NOx emission rate guarantee of 30 ppm and 20 ppm
respectively. The low NOx emission rate, in addition to good combustion practices, meets the established BACT for these units.

NONATTAINMENT/MAINTENANCE AREAS - OFFSETTING
SUU campus is located in Iron County, Utah. Iron County is currently classified as an attainment area for all
criteria pollutants. The UDAQ offset requirements in R307-403, R307-420, and R307-421 are not applicable
for the proposed modifications.
SUU / NOI Air Permit Application Trinity Consultants 8-1
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
8.1 UDAQ Applicable Rules
SUU has evaluated the applicability of each rule under the Utah Administrative Code (UAC) Title R307. Two
regulations were identified as potentially applicable to this project: R307-230 and R307-315. Each of which
is discussed below.
Rules generally applicable to SUU but not affected by this project have not been addressed. SUU will
continue to recognize and comply with definitions, terms, abbreviations, and references used in UAC R307
and 40 CFR for all applicable rules.
UAC R307-230: NOx Emission Limits for Natural Gas-Fired Water Heaters
Rule R307-230 is intended to reduce emissions of NOx from natural gas-fired water heaters. R307-230 has
The State Construction and Fire Codes Act, Subsection 15A-6-102, incorporated by reference. R307-230
establishes a 20 ppm NOx emission limit for water heaters with heat input greater than 75,000 BTU and less
than 2,000,000 BTU. The proposed 120,000 BTU water heater has a NOx emission rate of 20 ppm,
complying with the regulation(s) established in R307-230.
UAC R307-315: NOx Emission Controls for Natural Gas-Fired Boilers 2.0-5.0 MMBtu.
Rule R307-15 establishes maximum emission thresholds for the emissions of NOx for new or modified
natural gas-fired boilers with a total rated heat input of at least 2.0 MMBtu/hr and not more than 5.0
MMBtu/hr. The proposed boilers are rated at 1.701 MMBtu/hr each, less than the required threshold of 2.0
MMBtu/hr, making them exempt from this regulation.
8.2 Federal Rules: National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)
The NESHAP federal regulations found in Title 40 Part 61 and 63 of the CFR, are emission standards for
HAPs. NESHAP are applicable to both major sources of HAPs (facilities that exceed the major source
thresholds of 10 tpy of a single HAP and 25 tpy of any combination of HAPs from stationary sources) as well
as non-major sources (termed “area sources”). NESHAP apply to sources in specifically regulated industrial
source classifications (Clean Air Act Section 112(d)) or on a case-by-case basis (Clean Air Act Section
112(g)) for facilities not regulated as a specific industrial source type. NSPS require new, modified, or reconstructed sources to control emissions to the level achievable by the best demonstrated technology as
specified in the applicable provisions.
No new NESHAP or NSPS standards were found to be applicable to this project. Standards generally
applicable to SUU but not affected by this project have not been addressed. To demonstrate thorough due
diligence, SUU has identified NESHAP and NSPS standards potentially applicable to this project and reviewed the basis for exemption.
SUU / NOI Air Permit Application Trinity Consultants 8-2
NESHAP 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart JJJJJJ: Industrial, Commercial, and
Institutional Area Source Boilers
This rule is intended to emissions of toxic air pollutants from industrial, commercial, and institutional boilers
located at area source facilities. It establishes standards to address emissions of mercury, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide. The rule covers boilers located at area source facilities that burn coal, oil, or
biomass, but not boilers that burn only gaseous fuels or any solid waste. The proposed boilers will be
burning only gaseous fuels, therefore this rule is not applicable for this project.
NSPS 40 CFR 60 Subpart Db-Dc: Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam
Generating Units
This standard is applicable to Industrial-commercial-institutional steam generating units, which are boilers
that are capable of combusting over 10 MMBtu/h of fuel. The proposed boilers are rated at 1.7 MMBtu/hr
each, therefore this standard is not applicable for this project.
