Timberline Energy, LLC is a landfill gas to energy engine facility and falls under the Standard Industrial Classification 4911 for electric services. Timberline Energy is a separate source from the nearby landfills and operates two landfill gas engines. Combustion emissions from the engines include Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Sulfur Dioxide (5O2), Particulate Matter (PM) and Carbon Monoxide (CO). This is the initial Title V permit issuance of 12OPWE376. The appropriate applicable requirements from construction permit 10WE1096 Issuance 2 were included in this permit. Timberline Energy historically was considered a single source with Denver Regional Landfill South (DRLS), Denver Regional Landfill North (DRLN), and Front Range Landfill (FRL) but, due to recent EPA determinations, FRL requested to be separated from DRLN and Timberline Energy. FRL and DRLS will continue to be considered a single source. The Division has reviewed the requirements to separate and has determined Timberline energy is a separate source from 123- 0079. Timberline Energy is now assigned to the new AIRS ID 123-A2BC. A copy of the application, including supplemental information, the Division's analysis, and a draft of Operating Permit 2.02 1 S COLORADO =n:1=m t 12OPWE376 are available on the Division's website.

Any interested person may submit a written request to the Division for a public comment hearing before the Colorado Air Quality Control Commission (Commission) to receive comments regarding the concerns listed above as well as the sufficiency of the preliminary analysis and whether the Division should approve or deny the permit application.
