Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment <br />Air Pollution Control Division • <br />Bo%vie Resources, LLC - Bowie No. 2 Mine Surface Activities <br />Permit No. 03131-0923 <br />Initial Approval -• Modification-2 <br />PARTICULATE EMISSIONS CONTROL PLAN FOR MATERIALS HANDLING ACTIVITIES <br />THE FOLLOWING PARTICULATE EMISSIONS CONTROL MEASURES SHALL BE USED FOR <br />COMPLIANCE PURPOSES ON THE ACTIVITIES COVERED BY THIS PERMIT, AS REQUIRED BY THE <br />AIR QUALITY CONTROL COMMISSfON REGULATION NO.]. Section III.D.I.b. THIS SOURCE IS <br />SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING EMISSION GUIDELINES: <br />a. Materials Handling Activities - Visible emissions not to exceed 20% opacity, no off- <br />property transport of visible emissions. <br />b. Haul Roads - No off-property transport of visible emissions shall apply to on-site haul <br />roads, the nuisance guidelines shall apply to off-site haul roads. <br />Haul Trucks - There shall be no off-property transport of visible emissions from haul <br />trucks when operating on the property of the owner or operator. There shall be no off- <br />vehicle transport of visible emissions from the material in the haul trucks when operating <br />off of the property of the owner or operator. <br />Control Measures 0 <br />1. Adequate soil moisture must be maintained in topsoil and overburden to control emissions <br />during removal.. Watering shall be implemented if necessary. <br />2. Topsoil, overburden, and coal mine waste (gob) stockpiles shall be compacted, treated with <br />chemical stabilizers as per manufacturer's recommendations, and watered as required to <br />effectively control the emissions. Stockpiles shall be revegetated within one year. <br />3. Emissions from material handling (i.e. removal, loading, and hauling) shall be controlled by <br />watering at all times unless natural moisture is sufficient to control emissions. <br />4. Vehicle speed on unpaved roads and disturbed areas shall not exceed a maximum of 15 miles <br />per hour. Speed limit signs shall be posted. <br />5. Unpaved haul roads shall be graveled, treated with chemical stabilizers as per the <br />recommendations of the manufacturers, and watered as often as needed to effectively control <br />fugitive particulate emissions. <br />6. Reclamation works and sequential extraction of material shall be initiated to keep the total <br />disturbed areas at any one time to a minimum. <br />?. Activities that result in fugitive particulate matter emissions shall be suspended when the <br />wind speed exceeds 25 miles per hour. With the self-certification, a plan of action shall be <br />submitted detailing how this will be achieved. 40 <br />MRS Point ID: 029;`0049!016 Page 4 o'15
