<br />violation of Permit No. 97P00598, condition 6, which requires the generator to run no more than
<br />nine hours per day at 100% load and a coolant temperature no higher than 140°F.
<br />7. On October 10, 2001, Ms. Stutzman documented two six-minute opacity averages
<br />of 32.92% and 33.75% from the transfer point from the secondary cone crusher to the conveyor
<br />belt, in violation of the 10% opacity standard required by Permit No. 97P00603, condition 8(b),
<br />and Subpart 000, Section 60.672(b).
