Regulation 2—Odor Section I.A- 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 005 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. Regulation 3-APENs, Construction Permits, Operating Permits, PSD Part A-APEN Requirements Criteria Pollutants: For criteria pollutants, Air Pollutant Emission Notices are required for: 005 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) Part B—Construction Permit Exemptions 005 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 II.D.2.a) Regulation 6-New Source Performance Standards 005 None Regulation 7,—Volatile Organic Compounds Was the well newly constructed, hydraulically fractured, or recompleted on or after August 1, 2014? No—Based on the interpretation that the date of first production is equivalent to the date of a well being "newly constructed,"the date of first production for the most recent well at this 005 facility occurred prior to the August 1, 2014 applicability date. The operator was asked about this point and they confirmed that the date of first production for the most recent well was before August 1, 2014. As a result, the VRT is not subject to Regulation 7, Section XVII.G and the other control requirements of Regulation 7 Section XVIl.B.2 Regulation 8—Hazardous Air Pollutants 005 None Section 13—Aerometric Information Retrieval System Coding Information Process Emission Pollutant/ Fugitive Control Point Process Description Factor CAS# (YIN) Emission Factor Source (%) 7,430 lb/1000 bbl VOC No E&P Tanks 95 One(1)VRT throughput controlled by three 27.4 005 01 (3) ECDs during lb/1000 bbl N0x No Engineering Estimate NA VRU bypass. throughput 69.8 lb/1000 bbl CO No Engineering Estimate NA throughput Page 4 58 Benzene/ lb/1000 bbl 71432 No E&P Tanks 95 throughput 82.5 Toluene/ lb/1000 bbl 108883 No E&P Tanks 95 throughput 12.5 Ethylbenzene lb/1000 bbl /100414 No E&P Tanks 95 throughput 62.5 Xylenes/ lb/1000 bbl 1130207 No E&P Tanks 95 throughput 295 n-Hexane/ lb/1000 bbl 110543 No E&P Tanks 95 throughput 63.5 2,2,4-TMP/ lb/1000 bbl 540841 No E&P Tanks 95 throughput SCC 31000129-Gas/Liquid Separation Page 5 Section 14—Miscellaneous Application Notes One(1)vapor recovery tower(VRT)that processes liquid from the second stage of separation to create a third stage of liquid/gas separation. Overhead flash gas from the VRT is routed to the vapor recovery units (VRUs) in a closed loop process. When the VRUs are unable to capture the AIRS Point 005 entire overhead gas stream,flash gas is routed to three(3) enclosed combustion devices(ECDs).The ECDs have a minimum control efficiency of 95%. Emissions are a function of condensate throughput while overhead gas is routed to the ECDs. It is assumed that the flash gas is routed to the ECDs 40% of the time.This permit covers emissions when flash gas is routed to the ECDs. The site specific emission factors developed for this source were determined through the use of two pressurized liquid samples,two E&P Tanks simulations associated with the liquids samples, and a sales oil analysis. The pressurized liquid samples were obtained from two different wells at the facility. The wells from which the samples were taken include Harris Federal 15C-18HZ and Harris Federal 38N- 18HZ. The sales oil sample was obtained from a common production feed at the Harris Federal well pad. Two separate E&P Tanks simulations were conducted using the two pressurized liquid samples and sales oil analysis. The results of the simulation were averaged to determine the site specific emission factors. The following table contains the information from the E&P Tanks simulations used to determine the emission factors: Pollutant Harris Federal 15C-18HZ Harris Federal 38N-18HZ Emission Factors (lb/bbl) Emission Factors (lb/bbl) VOC 10.027 4.830 Benzene 0.084 0.032 Toluene 0.121 0.044 E-Benzene 0.017 0.008 Xylenes 0.093 0.032 n-Hexane 0.423 0.167 2,2,4-TMP 0.093 0.034 **The values from the E&P Tanks simulation have units of lb/hr; however, the simulation was run on a basis of 24 bbl/day, so the conversion from lb/hr to lb/bbl results in the same value. For example the flow rate of VOC from E&P Tanks for the Harris Federal 15C-18HZ well is 10.027 lb/hr. The conversion of this value to lb/bbl is as follows: VOC EF (lb/bbl) = (10.027 lb/hr)*(24 hr/day)*(1 day/24 bbl) = 10.027 lb VOC/bbl. The overall emission factor for the VRT was determined through a simple average of the emission factors for each pollutant from the Harris Federal 15C-18HZ and the Harris Federal 38N-18HZ wells. Following is an example calculation of the determination of the overall emission factor: Overall EF = EFisc-iaHz+EF38N_18Hz 2 10.027 lb +4.830 lb 7 428 lb VOC Overall EF bbl bbl — Zb/bbl - 2 bbl The above calculation was conducted for each of the pollutants listed in the table in order to obtain an overall emission factor. The overall emission factors for each pollutant in units of lb/bbl are listed in the following table: Page 6 Pollutant Emission Factors VOC 7.43 lb/bbl throughput NOx 2.74E-2 lb/bbl throughput CO 6.98E-2 lb/bbl throughput Benzene 5.8E-2 lb/bbl throughput Toluene 8.25E-2 lb/bbl throughput E-Benzene 1.25E-2 lb/bbl throughput Xylenes 6.25E-2 lb/bbl throughput n-Hexane 2.95E-1 lb/bbl throughput 2,2,4-TMP 6.35E-2 lb/bbl throughput Additional Notes: 1. The uncontrolled NOx and CO emission factors represent approved values from the CDPHE Inter- Office Communication on 2005-03-22 multiplied by the site specific VOC emission factor calculated in the application and represented above. The emission factor for and emissions of NOx and CO were determined through the following calculation: EF,lb l (EF,lb VOC Emission Factorlb/bbl = (lb VOC) * bbl ) The calculation of the NOx and CO emission factors represented in the permit are as follow: 0.0037 lbs NOx\ (7.428 lb VOC) 0.0274 lb NOx NOxib/bb( _ ( lb VOC ) * ( bbl bbl 0.0094 lbs CO\ (7.428 lb VOC) _ 0.0698 lb CO CO(b/bb( = ( lb VOC ) * ( bbl 1 bbl The calculation of the NOx emission limit found in the permit is as follows: 0.0274 lbs NOxI (73,000 bbl) 1 ton l _ 1.0 tons NOx NOxtpy = ( bbl / * ( year ) * (20001bs1 year The calculation of the CO emission limit found in the permit is as follows: 0.0698 lb CO\ 73,000 bbl) 1 ton \ _ 2.55 tons CO COtpy = ( bbl ) * ( *year I (20001bs1 year *These combustion emission factors were developed for use with storage tanks; however, they are approved for use here because the VRT operates at low pressure (-1 psig) 2. The operator expressed in the application that the normal operating pressure of the separator was increased by 10 psi prior to obtaining a sample for analysis. This artificial load on the separator leads to a more conservative estimate of flash emissions at the vapor recovery tower due to the increased pressure drop. Page 7 3. Operator was provided with a draft permit for review prior to public comment. The operator reviewed the draft permit and expressed that they did not have any comments.
