INSTRUCTIONS FOR AIR POLLUTANT EMISSION NOTICE FOR NEW, EXISTING, AND MODIFIED SOURCES
<br />rLLASE REAU THIS FIRST IF APPLYING FOR A PERMIT: Emission permits will Iimit the level of production/operation to that requested on the APEN. It is sug?gested that a 5-year growth projection
<br /> oe mauc. riease note tl
<br />(level under the annual consumption and output boxes as well as in the emission estimate section. You also need to enter your best estimate of production/operation for the rst year of
<br /> operation. An accurate estimate for the first ful
<br />year of operation can allow you to avoid having to submit a revised APEN to report your actual emissions after the first year, but may result in fees for emissions, which di n't actually
<br /> occur.
<br />This Air Pollution Emission Notice (ADEN) is valid for five (5) years
<br />from the date received by the Division. A revised APEN must be
<br />submitted no later than 30 dys before this expiration date.
<br />A rev, ised APEN must be submitted whenever uncontrolled actual
<br />emissions of any
<br />pollutant not previously reported occurs which exceeds.'
<br />1 toll ear (non ttainment for any pollutan2 tons/year (attainment for
<br />all pollutants) for criteria pollutants or the appropriate reporting threshold
<br />for non-criteria reportable pollutants.
<br />A revised APEN must be submitted prior to the installation of new, or
<br />replacement of existing pollution control equipment.
<br />A revised APEN must be submitted prior to any change in the ownership
<br />or operator of a facility.
<br />A revised APEN must be submitted in order to charge a permit limit or
<br />condition. Highlighted boxes for requested levels should be completed.
<br />A revised APEN must be submitted whenever a significant change in
<br />annual (calendar year) actual emissions occurs. This APEN must be
<br />submitted by April 36 of the year following the calendar year during
<br />which this change occurs. A significant change for a pollutant is define
<br />as:
<br />Sources, which emit 100 tons per year or more: any increase of 5% or
<br />50 tons/year or more of actual emissions, whichever is less.
<br />Sources which emit less than 100 tons per year: any increase of 5
<br />tons/year or more of actual emissions, except for sources of volatile
<br />organic compounds in the Metro Denver Region which must report
<br />an increase of I ton/year or 5% of actual emissions, whichever is
<br />greater.
<br />Sources, which emit Non-Criteria Reportable Air Pollutants: any
<br />0
<br />increase of 50% or 5 tons/year of actual emissions, whichever is less.
<br />Note: For an APEN to be considered renewed all appropriate fields for
<br />current operating and company data must be filled out. fhe application
<br />will not be accepted if it simply notes `No Change'. See PS Memo 02-01
<br />for further information.
<br />Grouping of multiple emission points on a single APEN shall be allowed
<br />as often as possible, provided tree overall goals of receiving accurate and
<br />verifiable emissions information are not compromise Please see
<br />Regulation No. 3, Part A, Section iI.B.4 for guidelines regarding grouping
<br />of multiple emission points.
<br />Federal Tax I.D. No: Providing your Federal Tax I.D. no. will help
<br />tile ,vision __pprocess yyour permit application more efficiently, and
<br />will help the Division to reduce billing errors.
<br />Velocity: To the nearest I ft./min., obtained by dividing Flow Rate by
<br />area of exit.
<br />Moisture: Percent by weight of exhaust gases.
<br />Plant ID: Note any in-house identification number for a stack.
<br />C. FUEL INFORMATION
<br />Description of Combustion Unit: identify the specific device that
<br />ums -tile fuel. -xannp es: team Generator # 1, Crude Heater C,
<br />Rotary Kiln, Melting Furnace Beet Pulp Dryer, Asphalt Batch Rotary
<br />Dryer, Grain Dryer w/Recycle. Additional lines under this heading
<br />may be used for description, since only ONE combustion unit may be
<br />properly inventoried on an APEN formTfude manufacturer Model
<br />and' Serial Number.
<br />Design Rate: Capacity of combustion unit in 10` BTU/hour.
<br />Kind of Fuel: Up to three fuels Coal, Natural Gas, #6 Residual Oil,
<br />00 . ar , etc.) may be listed or the combustion unit, with data on
<br />each line pertaining to that fuel.
<br />Attu pal?Consuumtioil:- The anmouq of fuel used in tons of solid fuel
<br />111 - Gal of liq utd iucl, or 10 scf of gaseous fuel. On permil
<br />applications & revisions enter requested maximum amount. This
<br />requested maximum will become a permit limit.
<br />inm Value: For solid fuels use BTU/LB. For liquid fuels use
<br />Heat
<br />li l"U/(;AL. For gaseous fuels use BTU/scf.
<br />Sulfur & Ash Content: Nearest 0.01% (sulfur), 0.1% (ash).
<br />Seasonal Use: Seasonal share boxes must total 100%.
<br />Space Hot : The share (if any) of annual use of this fuel in this
<br />con" nib Ist[oil unit attributed to space healing needs.
<br />To facilitate the Division's analysis, attach a sketch of the plant layout
<br />on 8 1/2"X 11" paper. Refer to it when helpful in your block entries.
<br />This sketch need not be exactly to scale if pertinent dimensions are
<br />annotated, including height and positional distances of structures near
<br />the stacks, position of [Ire stacks relative to plant land boundaries,
<br />notable terrain features, etc.
<br />D. PROCESS INFORMATION
<br />Descri lion of Processin Umit: Identify equipment contributin to
<br />tie emissions tom us sac or vent; use second line for description
<br />if needed (Onl ONE processing unit per APEN form). Include
<br />manufacturer Model and Serial No.
<br />Raw Materials. Solvents, etc.: List all material used.
<br />Annual Consumption: List amounts of each material used annually
<br />s?mec, units. everal malcnals in a process may re, mire use of
<br />ICEM CS space or adddionalpages. Staple these addi ional sheets
<br />to the APEN. On This applications & 'revisions, enter requested
<br />maximum amount. "Phis requested maximum will become a permit
<br />limit.
<br />estimation method. (e.g., manufacturer's data). if emission
<br />estimations are based upon methods other than those supplied by the
<br />Division or EPA, sufficient supporting documentation mut be
<br />included. On permit applications &i revisions, enter requested maxi-
<br />mum amount. This requested maximum will become a permit
<br />limit.
<br />If the applicant wants the division to calculate the emissions from this
<br />source, the box in time lower right hand corner of section E must be
<br />checked off. If applicant is requesting that the division calculate
<br />emissions, any jn ornmation needed to make such calculations must be
<br />provided. Applicants for permits may request a copy of the d,vs,on's
<br />emission estimates by checking off the copy of preliminary analysis
<br />on item 13 of the application form.
<br />Be sure to fill in the year for, which actual data ap lies space. This is
<br />the year for which the listed information is applicable.
<br />The permit will limit the source to the quantities of materials listed on
<br />this APEN. Please be sure that these quantities are accurate and will
<br />allow you to operate at the rate you desire.
<br />If a block size is inadequate for the required information, use the
<br />Remarks' space (Section A), or an additional sheet of paper.
<br />If non-criteria reportable air pollutants are emitted, please complete
<br />the addendum form also.
<br />FEES:
<br />A $152.90 filing fee is required with each APEN, submitted. In
<br />addition processing fees are charged for both initial and final
<br />approval permits, permit modifications and transfers of ownership.
<br />1 rocessing fees will be billed at $76.45/hr based on actual hours
<br />logged on the permit. All fees trust be paid before the permit will be
<br />issued.
