Facility -wide emissions of each individual hazardous air pollutant shall be less than 8.0 tpy. Facility -wide emissions of total hazardous air pollutants shall be less than 20.0 tpy. Compliance with the synthetic minor status of this facility shall be determined by recording the facility's annual criteria pollutant emissions, from each emission unit, on a rolling (12) month total. By the end of each month a new twelve-month total is calculated based on the previous twelve months' data. The permit holder shall calculate monthly emissions and keep a compliance record on site or at a local field office with site responsibility, for Division review. This rolling twelve-month total shall apply to all emission units, requiring an APEN, at this facility.

The owner or operator shall sample the gas routed to the flare to determine the heat content on an annual basis ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS 15. A revised Air Pollutant Emission Notice (APEN) shall be filed: (Reference: Regulation No. 3, Part A, II.C) a. Annually whenever a significant increase in emissions occurs as follows: For any criteria pollutant: For sources emitting less than 100 tons per year, a change in actual emissions of five (5) tons per year or more, above the level reported on the last APEN; or For sources emitting 100 tons per year or more, a change in actual emissions of five percent or 50 tons per year or more, whichever is less, above the level reported on the last APEN submitted; or AIRS ID: 123/9A31 Page 3 of 7 Public Health and Environment Air Pollution Control Division For any non -criteria reportable pollutant: If the emissions increase by 50% or five (5) tons per year, whichever is less, above the level reported on the last APEN submitted to the Division. b.

Whenever new control equipment is installed, or whenever a different type of control equipment replaces an existing type of control equipment; or d. Whenever a permit limitation must be modified; or e. No later than 30 days before the existing APEN expires. 16. Federal regulatory program requirements (i.e. PSD, NANSR or Title V Operating Permit) shall apply to this source at any such time that this source becomes major solely by virtue of a relaxation in any permit condition. Any relaxation that increases the potential to emit above the applicable Federal program threshold will require a full review of the source as though construction had not yet commenced on the source. The source shall not exceed the Federal program threshold until a permit is granted. (Regulation No. 3 Part D). GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS 17. This permit and any attachments must be retained and made available for inspection upon request. The permit may be reissued to a new owner by the APCD as provided in AQCC Regulation No. 3, Part B, Section II.B upon a request for transfer of ownership and the submittal of a revised APEN and the required fee. 18. If this permit specifically states that final authorization has been granted, then the remainder of this condition is not applicable. Otherwise, the issuance of this construction permit does not provide "final" authority for this activity or operation of this source. Final authorization of the permit must be secured from the APCD in writing in accordance with the provisions of 25-7-114.5(12)(a) C.R.S. and AQCC Regulation No. 3, Part B, Section III.G. Final authorization cannot be granted until the operation or activity commences and has been verified by the APCD as conforming in all respects with the conditions of the permit. Once self -certification of all points has been reviewed and approved by the Division, it will provide written documentation of such final authorization. Details for obtaining final authorization to operate are located in the Requirements to Self -Certify for Final Authorization section of this permit. 19. This permit is issued in reliance upon the accuracy and completeness of information supplied by the applicant and is conditioned upon conduct of the activity, or construction, installation and operation of the source, in accordance with this information and with representations made by the applicant or applicant's agents. It is valid only for the equipment and operations or activity specifically identified on the permit. 20. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the general and specific conditions contained in this permit have been determined by the APCD to be necessary to assure compliance with the provisions of Section 25-7-114.5(7)(a), C.R.S. 21.

Any challenge to or appeal of a condition hereof shall constitute a rejection of the entire permit and upon such occurrence, this permit shall be deemed denied ab initio. This permit may be revoked at any time prior to self -certification and final authorization by the Air Pollution Control Division (APCD) on grounds set forth in the Colorado Air Quality Control Act and regulations of the Air Quality Control Commission (AQCC), including failure to meet any AIRS ID: 123/9A31 Page 4 of 7 P blic Health and Environment Air Pollution Control Division express term or condition of the permit. If the Division denies a permit, conditions imposed upon a permit are contested by the applicant, or the Division revokes a permit, the applicant or owner or operator of a source may request a hearing before the AQCC for review of the Division's action. 22. Section 25-7-114.7(2)(a), C.R.S. requires that all sources required to file an Air Pollution Emission Notice (APEN) must pay an annual fee to cover the costs of inspections and administration. If a source or activity is to be discontinued, the owner must notify the Division in writing requesting a cancellation of the permit. Upon notification, annual fee billing will terminate. 23. Violation of the terms of a permit or of the provisions of the Colorado Air Pollution Prevention and Control Act or the regulations of the AQCC may result in administrative, civil or criminal enforcement actions under Sections 25-7-115 (enforcement), -121 (injunctions), -122 (civil penalties), -122.1 (criminal penalties), C.R.S.
