Requlation 1 - Particulate Smoke Carbon Monoxide and Sulfur Dioxide
001
Section II.A.1 - Except as provided in paragraphs 2 through 6 below, no owner or operator
of a source shall allow or cause the emission into the atmosphere of any air pollutant which
is in excess of 20% opacity. This standard is based on 24 consecutive opacity readings
taken at 15 -second intervals for six minutes. The approved reference test method for
visible emissions measurement is EPA Method 9 (40 CFR, Part 60, Appendix A (July,
1992)) in all subsections of Section II. A and B of this regulation.
Section II.A.5 - Smokeless Flare or Flares for the Combustion of Waste Gases No owner
or operator of a smokeless flare or other flare for the combustion of waste gases shall
allow or cause emissions into the atmosphere of any air pollutant which is in excess of
30% opacity for a period or periods aggregating more than six minutes in any sixty
consecutive minutes.
Requlation 2 — Odor
001
Section LA - No person, wherever located, shall cause or allow the emission of odorous air
contaminants from any single source such as to result in detectable odors which are
measured in excess of the following limits: For areas used predominantly for residential or
commercial purposes it is a violation if odors are detected after the odorous air has been
diluted with seven (7) or more volumes of odor free air.

each individual emission point in a non -attainment area with uncontrolled actual emissions
of one ton per year or more of any individual criteria pollutant (pollutants are not summed)
for which the area is non -attainment.
(Applicant is required to file an APEN since emissions exceed 1 ton per year VOC)
001
Part B — Construction Permit Exemptions
Applicant is required to obtain a permit since uncontrolled VOC emissions from this
facility are greater than the 2.0 TPY threshold (Reg. 3, Part B, Section ll.D.2.a)
Regulation 6 - New Source Performance Standards

Condensate Storage Tanks
I had to wait on the operator for a new gas analysis. I had several strings of emails (7/17/12, 7/18/12, 8/16/12,
10/31/12, 11/29/12 and 12/5/12) asking for information and finally received a gas analysis and E&P tank run on
12/14/12.
Operator provided a gas analysis 11/1/12 and an E&P tank model. Emissions are calculated as:
VOC E.F. = (77.701 * 2000)/ 53290 = 2.9161 lb/bbl * 1000/42 = 69.4314 lb/1000 gal
Benzene = (0.086`2000)/53290 = 0.0032 lb/bbl * 1000/42 = 0.0768 lb/1000 gal
Toluene = (0.106`2000)/53290 = 0.0040 lb/bbl* 1000/42 = 0.0947 ib/1000 gal
Ethylbenzene = (0.015'2000)/53290 = 0.0006 lb/bbl* 1000/42 = 0.0134 lb/1000 gal
Xylenes = (0.04*2000)/53290 = 0.0015 lb/bbl * 1000/42 = 0.0357 lb/1000 gal
n -hexane = (0.447*2000)/53290 = 0.0168 lb/bbl * 1000/42 = 0.3994 lb/1000 gal
Operator provided an E&P tank model with 53,290 bbl/yr, which is significantly less than what was provided on the
APEN with the application. I emailed her if the throughput needs to be changed on the APEN or if it should still be a
requested value of 225,753 bbl/yr. She emailed me back on 12/17/12 requesting to redline the APEN to reflect
53,290 bbl/yr. This decreased their emissions significantly. I revised the PA to reflect the correct throughput.

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.
18. This permit is issued in reliance upon the accuracy and completeness of information
supplied by the owner or operator and is conditioned upon conduct of the activity, or

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
express term or condition of the permit. If the Division denies a permit, conditions imposed
upon a permit are contested by the owner or operator, or the Division revokes a permit, the
owner or operator or owner or operator of a source may request a hearing before the AQCC
for review of the Division's action.
21. 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.
