3 B. Regulatory Status 1. PSD/NSR/RACT Packaging Corporation of America (PCA), Clyattville is classified as a major source under 40 CFR 52.21, Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD). The facility is located in an attainment area for all criteria pollutants. Per the narrative associated with Permit Number V-02-0 PCA has taken some limits to avoid PSD on certain modifications. They are as follows: Sulfur dioxide emissions from the incineration of Total Reduced Sulfur (TRS) compounds in the NCG Thermal Oxidizer from the LVHC non-condensable gas system, HVLC non-condensable gas system and the foul condensate stripper off gases are limited to 40 tons per 12 consecutive month period. No. 4 Lime Kiln (Source Code 6063) tons/12 consecutive months of total particulate matter tons/12 consecutive months of PM tons/12 consecutive months of sulfur dioxide tons/12 consecutive months of nitrogen oxides tons/12 consecutive months of carbon monoxide tons/12 consecutive months of volatile organic compounds. Recovery Furnace No. 1 (Source Code 7000): Particulate matter emissions are limited to tons/12 consecutive months TRS emissions are limited to tons/12 consecutive months Black Liquor Firing Rate is limited to 153,966 tons of black liquor solids per 12 consecutive months Recovery Furnace No. 3 (Source Code 7020): Particulate matter emissions are limited to 25.6 lb/hour Package Boiler (Source Code 1058) Hours of operation is limited to 2,160 hours per year No. 3 Smelt Tank (Source Code 7025) Particulate matter emissions are limited to 13.7 lb/hour Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 3 of 21

6 Per 40 CFR 52.21(r)(6), and Georgia Rule (7) Prevention of Significant Deterioration of Air Quality[ (7)(b)(15)], sources are obligated to track actual emission in the future for comparison against projected actual emissions. According to Application Number 22133, PM, PM 10, and PM 2.5 actual to future actual emissions estimates are 50% or more of the applicable significance levels and meet the reasonable possibility criteria. However, these estimates do not include any change to the PM limit or current PM controls. The estimates reflect an emission increase as a result of a conservative projection approach. Under this regulation, GHG emissions resulting from the proposed modification will only be reviewed. In accordance with page three of the US EPA PSD and Title V Permitting Guidance for Greenhouse Gases (March 2011) 1, under EPA s interpretation of the Clean Air Act and applicable rules, construction permits issued under the PSD program on or after January 2, 2011, must contain conditions addressing GHG emissions. The proposed modification to the existing Combination Boilers will take place after January Therefore, the Division will treat the proposed changes as a modification to existing sources and follow the determination of PSD applicability to GHGs emissions in accordance with the US EPA PSD and Title V Permitting Guidance for Greenhouse Gases (March 2011) Appendix D. GHG Applicability Flow Chart Modified Sources (On or after July 1, 2011) which is located on pages D-1 through D-4 of this document. According to Appendix D, GHG emissions increases from modified sources less than 75,000 tons per year on a CO 2 e basis do not have to undergo PSD review for GHG emissions if the sources are not subject to PSD for a regulated NSR pollutant other than GHGs. According to Application Number 22133, GHG emission increases are less than 75,000 tons per year on a CO 2 e basis. For emissions increases, see Table B-4 of Appendix B to Application Number Potential emissions of all NSR pollutants other than GHGs resulting from the proposed changes to the Combination Boilers are below the applicable significance levels for PSD review. Therefore, PSD review is not applicable to the GHG emissions from the proposed modification. Therefore, PSD is not applicable to this modification. NSPS Modification The proposed changes do not qualify as a modification under 40 CFR 60 as discussed below. NESHAP Modification The facility is not subject to any rules under 40 CFR 61. The proposed changes do not qualify as a modification under 40 CFR 63 as discussed below. 1 Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 6 of 21

7 III. Facility Wide Requirements A. Emission and Operating Caps There are no new facility-wide emission and operating caps associated with this modification. B. Applicable Rules and Regulations There are no new facility-wide applicable rules and regulations associated with this modification. C. Compliance Status No noncompliance issues were indicated in Application D. Operational Flexibility No request for facility-wide operational flexibility is associated with this modification. E. Permit Conditions No facility-wide permit conditions were added as a result of this modification. IV. Regulated Equipment Requirements A. Brief Process Description Packaging Corporation of America (PCA) is proposing to make improvements to the Mill s two (2) Combination Boilers (Riley and C.E., Source Codes 1005 and 1006, respectively) to comply with the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters (Boiler MACT; 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart DDDDD). Provisions of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD that are applicable to the Combination Boilers are included in this permit. These will become effective on the respective compliance date in 40 CFR , January 31, These two industrial boilers are in the 40 CFR 63 Subpart DDDDD hybrid suspension/grate subcategory for existing units, with US EPA concurrence on this determination on June 5, In addition to new regulatory requirements, proposed permit modifications to the Combination Boilers for Boiler MACT compliance purposes include changing the burners to provide sufficient capacity during startup and shutdown to meet the clean fuels provision of the Boiler MACT Rule and the addition of tire derived fuel (TDF) as an alternative fuel source, at less than 10% of the heat input on an annual basis, for the Combination Boilers. B. Equipment List for the New or Modified Process(es) The two (2) Combination Boilers (Riley and C.E., Source Codes 1005 and 1006, respectively) are as listed in the permit currently. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 7 of 21

8 C. Equipment & Rule Applicability Emission and Operating Caps No emission caps were removed or modified as a result of this permit modification. The capability to fire TDF in the boilers in quantities as discussed above was added. Applicable Rules and Regulations - 40 CFR 60, Subpart D This regulation is applicable to each fossil-fuel-fired steam generating unit of more than 73 megawatts (MW) heat input rate (250 million British thermal units per hour that commenced construction or modification after August 17, [40 CFR 60.40] The C.E. Combination Boiler has a heat input capacity of 243 x 10 6 Btu/hr and was constructed prior to August 17, Therefore this boiler is not subject to 40 CFR 60, Subpart D. The Riley Combination Boiler has a heat input capacity of 360 x 10 6 Btu/hr and was constructed prior to August 17, Although the heat input of the Riley Combination Boiler is within the regulated capacity, the construction date of the boiler is prior to the applicability of 40 CFR 60, Subpart D. Furthermore, the Riley Combination Boiler has never been modified or reconstructed, according to Application Number However, the Riley Combination Boiler is potentially subject to this regulation if it is determined to be a modified or reconstructed source under this regulation. Per 40 CFR 60.40b(j), any affected facility meeting the applicability requirements under 40 CFR 60.40b(a) and commencing construction, modification, or reconstruction after June 19, 1986 is not subject to 40 CFR 60, Subpart D. Since the Riley Combination Boiler is potentially subject to 40 CFR 60, Subpart Db as discussed below, this regulation does not apply. 40 CFR Subpart Da The regulation is applicable to each electric utility steam generating unit that is capable of combusting more than 73 megawatts (Mw) (250 million British thermal units per hour) heat input of fossil fuel (either alone or in combination with any other fuel), was constructed, modified, or reconstructed after September 18, 1978 [40 CFR 60.40Da (a)]. Per 40 CFR 60.41Da, an electric utility steam-generating unit means any steam electric generating unit that is constructed for the purpose of supplying more than one-third of its potential electric output capacity and more than 25 MW net-electrical output to any utility power distribution system for sale. Also, any steam supplied to a steam distribution system for the purpose of providing steam to a steam-electric generator that would produce electrical energy for sale is considered in determining the electrical energy output capacity of the affected facility. The C.E. Combination Boiler has a heat input capacity of 243 x 10 6 Btu/hr and was constructed prior to September 18, The Riley Combination Boiler has a heat input capacity of 360 x 10 6 Btu/hr and was constructed prior to September 18, Furthermore, PCA operates under a federal enforceable permit condition limiting the electric output to a utility power distribution system for sale to no more than 219,000 megawatt hours (MWh) during any consecutive 12-month period. Therefore this regulation does not apply. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 8 of 21

9 40 CFR 60, Subpart Db This regulation applies to each steam generating unit that commences construction, modification, or reconstruction after June 19, 1984, and that has a heat input capacity from fuels combusted in the steam generating unit of greater than 29 megawatts (Mw) (100 million British thermal units per hour (10 6 Btu/hr)) [40 CFR 60.40b(a)]. Any affected facility that meets the applicability requirements and is subject to 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart Ea, 40 CFR 60 Subpart Eb, or 40 CFR 60 Subpart AAAA if it is not covered by this subpart [40 CFR 60.40b(h)]. The original Combination Boilers, each with heat inputs greater than 100 x 10 6 Btu/hr, were constructed prior to August 17, 1971, predating the regulation. However, the Combination Boilers are potentially subject to this regulation if they are determined to be modified or reconstructed sources under this regulation. Per 40 CFR 60.14, a modification is any physical or operational change to an existing facility which results in an increase in the emission rate to the atmosphere of any pollutant to which a standard applies shall be considered a modification within the meaning of section 111 of the Act. Upon modification, an existing facility shall become an affected facility for each pollutant to which a standard applies and for which there is an increase in the emission rate to the atmosphere. This regulation establishes emission standards for sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), PM, and NO x emissions from applicable sources. According to emission estimates provided in Tables B-12 and B-13 of in Appendix B of Application Number 22133, the proposed changes to the Combination Boilers will not result in an increase in the short-term emissions of the 40 CFR 60, Subpart Db regulated pollutants. Therefore, the change to the Combination Boilers does not meet the definition of a modification under this regulation. Per 40 CFR 60.15, reconstruction occurs when the components of an existing facility are replaced to such an extent that: (1) The fixed capital cost of the new components exceeds 50 percent of the fixed capital cost that would be required to construct a comparable entirely new facility, and (2) It is technologically and economically feasible to meet the applicable standards set forth in this part. This evaluation did not include in the cost of reconstruction for the affected facility equipment that is part of the affected facility, but not part of the manufacturing or operation process. According to page 4-5 of Application Number 22133, a review of the fixed capital costs associated with the proposed changes to the Combination Boilers indicated that the proposed project does not meet the definition of reconstruction under this regulation. Therefore, this regulation does not apply. 40 CFR 60, Subpart Dc This regulation applies to each steam generating unit for which construction, modification, or reconstruction is commenced after June 9, 1989 and that has a maximum design heat input capacity of 29 megawatts (MW) (100 million British Thermal Units per hour) or less, but greater than or equal to 2.9 MW (10 million British Thermal Units per hour) [40 CFR 60.40c(a)]. The Combination Boilers each have a rated heat input capacity of greater than 100 x 10 6 Btu/hr, and therefore are not subject to this regulation. 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD This regulation is applicable to new, reconstructed, or existing industrial, commercial, and institutional boilers and process heaters located at major sources of HAP [40 CFR and 40 CFR (a)]. The regulation is applicable to Combination Boilers and Power Boiler No. 3 at the facility. The specific requirements for the Power Boiler No. 3 were addressed in a separate permit modification. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 9 of 21

10 A boiler or process heater is to be new if it commenced construction after June 4, 2010 [40 CFR (b)]. A boiler is considered to be reconstructed if the reconstruction criteria as defined in 40 CFR 63.2 are met, reconstruction commenced after June 4, 2010 [40 CFR (c)]. (d) A boiler is existing if it is not new or reconstructed [40 CFR (d)]. Per 40 CFR 63.2, reconstruction, unless otherwise defined in a relevant standard, means the replacement of components of an affected or a previously nonaffected source to such an extent that: (1) The fixed capital cost of the new components exceeds 50 percent of the fixed capital cost that would be required to construct a comparable new source; and (2) It is technologically and economically feasible for the reconstructed source to meet the relevant standard(s) established by the Administrator (or a State) pursuant to section 112 of the Act. Upon reconstruction, an affected source, or a stationary source that becomes an affected source, is subject to relevant standards for new sources, including compliance dates, irrespective of any change in emissions of hazardous air pollutants from that source. According to pages 4-7 of Application Number 22133, a review of the fixed capital costs associated with the proposed changes to the Combination Boilers indicated that the proposed project does not meet the definition of reconstruction under this regulation. Therefore, the Combination boilers will be considered as existing units under 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD. Existing boilers must comply with this regulation no later than January 31, 2016, except as provided in 40 CFR 63.6(i) [40 CFR (b)]. The Combination Boilers, which are both designed for burning wet biomass fuel, meet criteria for two subcategories under 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD. Per 40 CFR , a stoker/sloped grate/other unit designed to burn wet biomass means the unit is in the units designed to burn biomass/bio-based solid subcategory that is either a stoker, sloped grate, or other combustor design and any of the biomass/bio-based solid fuel combusted in the unit exceeds 20 percent moisture on an annual heat input basis. Per 40 CFR , a hybrid suspension grate boiler means a boiler designed with air distributors to spread the fuel material over the entire width and depth of the boiler combustion zone. The biomass fuel combusted in these units exceeds a moisture content of 40 percent on an as-fired annual heat input basis. The drying and much of the combustion of the fuel takes place in suspension, and the combustion is completed on the grate or floor of the boiler. Fluidized bed, dutch oven, and pile burner designs are not part of the hybrid suspension grate boiler design category. Emission limits are different for these subcategories for PM and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions. Therefore, PCA requested and received a determination from U.S. EPA Region 4 (included with Application Number 22133) concurring with PCA that the Combination Boilers should be classified as hybrid suspension grate units designed to burn biomass/bio-based solid subcategory. The following table summarizes the applicable emission limits for the hybrid suspension grate subcategory that is applicable to the Combination Boilers. These emission limits apply at all times, except during periods of startup and shutdown during which time PCA must comply only with Table 3 to 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD [40 CFR (f)].

11 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Emissions Limits for Potentially Applicable Subcategories for Existing Units Subcategory Hybrid Suspension Grate Boiler Designed to Burn Biomass/Bio-Based Solids [40 CFR (h), 40, CFR (a), 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Table 2] Filterable PM (lbs/10 6 Btu heat input) Total Selected Metals [TSM] (lbs/10 6 Btu heat input) 1 parts per million by volume on a dry basis 2 Not Applicable Hydrogen Chloride [HCl] (lbs/10 6 Btu heat input) Mercury [Hg] (lbs/10 6 Btu heat input) x 10-4 NA 2 NA 2 CO (ppmvd 3% oxygen [O 2 ]) 3,500; 3-run average; (900 using CEMS; 30-day rolling average) In a separate off permit change submittal, PCA proposed to install an oxygen trim system on the Combination Boilers. As a result, the facility must perform the following work practices standards specified in Table 3 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD [40, CFR (a)]. Existing boilers with a continuous oxygen trim system that maintains an optimum air to fuel ratio PCA must conduct a tune-up of the Combination Boilers every 5 years as specified in 40 CFR Existing boilers located at a major source facility, not including limited use units PCA must have a one-time energy assessment performed as specified by Item 4 in Table 3 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD. Existing boilers subject to emission limits in Table 2 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD during startup PCA must complete all applicable requirements under Item 5 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD during startup of the Combination Boilers. Existing boilers subject to emission limits in Table 2 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD during shutdown PCA must complete all applicable requirements under Item 6 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD during shutdown of the Combination Boilers. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 11 of 21

12 The Combination Boilers currently operate a venturi scrubber. As a result, the facility must comply with the following operating limits specified in Table 4 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD [40, CFR (a)]. Wet PM scrubber control on a boiler not using a PM CPMS - Maintain the 30- day rolling average pressure drop and the 30-day rolling average liquid flow rate at or above the lowest one-hour average pressure drop and the lowest one-hour average liquid flow rate, respectively, measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the PM emission limitation according to 40 CFR (b) and Table 7 to this subpart. Performance Testing - boilers that demonstrate compliance with a performance test, maintain the operating load of each unit such that it does not exceed 110 percent of the highest hourly average operating load recorded during the most recent performance test. According to Application Number 22133, the TDF that will be fired at the facility will be provided from a managed tire collection program. Therefore, the TDF is considered to be a non-waste fuel, and does not meet the definition of solid waste per 40 CFR 241.3(b)(2)(1). As provided in Permit Application Number 22133, the following tables summarize the applicable emission limits, operating limits, and work practice standards based on the different proposed operating scenarios of the Combination Boilers. 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Emissions Limits for the Applicable Subcategory for Existing Units for the Combination Boilers Regulatory Citation 40 CFR (h), 40 CFR 7500(a)(1), Tables 1, 2, and 13 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Subcategory Pollutant Emission Limit Existing Biomass Hybrid Suspension Grate HCl Hg 2.2 x 10-2 lb/10 6 Btu heat input Alternatively: 2.5 x 10-2 lb/10 6 Btu of steam output or 0.27 lb/megawatt hour (MWh) 5.7 x 10-6 lb/10 6 Btu heat input CO Alternatively: 6.4 x 10-6 lb/10 6 Btu of steam output or 7.3 x 10-5 MWh 3,500 3% O 2 (3-run stack test average); or 900 3% O 2 (30-day CEMS rolling average) Alternatively: 3.5 x 10-2 lb/10 6 Btu of steam output (3-run stack test average); or 31 lb/mwh (3-run stack test average) Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 12 of 21

During Boiler Shutdown: o Operate all CMS. o Vent emissions to the main stack(s) and operate the dust scrubber. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 13 of 21

14 o Compliance with emission limits is required at all times except during periods of startup and shutdown confirming with this work practice. o Monitoring data must be collected during periods of shutdown and records must be kept. Reports concerning activities and periods of shutdown must be provided as specified in 40 CFR CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Operating Limits for Applicable Subcategory for Existing Units for the Combination Boilers Regulatory Citation 40 CFR (a)(2) and Table 4 of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Subcategory Control Device Operating Limit Existing Biomass Hybrid Suspension Grate Wet Scrubber Maintain 30-day rolling average pressure drop and 30-day rolling average liquid flow rate at or above the lowest one-hour average pressure drip and liquid flow rate measure during the most recent performance test. Note: Startup is as defined in as amended in 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD Reconsideration Rule 40 CFR 64 Except for backup utility units that are exempt under paragraph (b)(2) of 40 CFR 64.2, the requirements of 40 CFR Part 64 apply to a pollutant-specific emissions unit at a major source that is required to obtain a part 70 or 71 permit if the unit satisfies all of the following criteria: (1) The unit is subject to an emission limitation or standard for the applicable regulated air pollutant (or a surrogate thereof), other than an emission limitation or standard that is exempt under paragraph (b)(1) of 40 CFR 64.2; (2) The unit uses a control device to achieve compliance with any such emission limitation or standard; and (3) The unit has potential pre-control device emissions of the applicable regulated air pollutant that are equal to or greater than 100 percent of the amount, in tons per year, required for a source to be classified as a major source. Where potential pre-control device emissions has the same meaning as potential to emit, as defined in 40 CFR 64.1, except that emission reductions achieved by the applicable control device are not taken into account [40 CFR 64.2(a)]. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 14 of 21

15 The Combination Boilers vent to a common venturi scrubber. The control device will be used to achieve compliance with an applicable emission limit or standard. Potential PM and SO 2 emissions, the controlled pollutants, are above the applicable major source thresholds. Per 40 CFR 64.2(b)(1)(i), emission limitations or standards proposed by the Administrator after November 15, 1990 pursuant to section 111 or 112 of the Clean Air Act are exempted from this regulation. Particulate matter emissions from the combination boilers are limited by 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD. This regulation was promulgated under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act after November 15, Therefore, PM emissions from the Combination Boilers are exempted from requirements of 40 CFR 64. The SO 2 emissions from the Combination Boilers are already regulated under 40 CFR 64, and the requirements of this regulation for the Combination Boilers SO 2 emissions are already incorporated in the facility s existing Title V permit. Therefore, no additional requirements of 40 CFR 64 result from the proposed changes to the Combination Boilers. Georgia Rule for Air Quality Control (Georgia Rule) (2)(b) Emission Limitations and Standards Visible Emissions This regulation limits opacity to less than forty (40) percent, except as may be provided in other more restrictive or specific rules or subdivisions of Georgia Rule (2). This limitation applies to direct sources of emissions such as stationary structures, equipment, machinery, stacks, flues, pipes, exhausts, vents, tubes, chimneys or similar structures. This regulation is applicable to the Combination Boilers since the proposed changes will not result in units being extensively modified. This regulation is already incorporated into the existing permit for these sources. Georgia Rule (2)(d) Emission Limitations and Standards Fuel Burning Equipment This regulation limits particulate emissions from fuel burning equipment. For fuel burning equipment in operation or under construction on or before January 1, 1972 with a heat input greater than 10 million Btu heat input per hour, and equal to or less than 2,000 million Btu heat input per hour, allowable particulate emissions shall be calculated using the following equation: P = 0.7 [10/R] pounds per million BTU heat input, Where: P = allowable weight of emissions of fly ash and/or other particulate matter in pounds per million Btu heat input R = heat input of fuel-burning equipment in million Btu per hour. This particulate emission limit is applicable to the Combination Boilers. The applicability of this regulation is already addressed and subsumed by existing emission limitations. Applicability of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD PM emissions limits, as applicable, will also subsume the requirements of this regulation. Packaging Corporation of America, TV Page 15 of 21

16 Georgia Rule (2)(g) Sulfur Dioxide This regulation regulates fuel sulfur content, by weight. All fuel burning sources greater than or equal to 100 million BTUs of heat input per hour shall not burn fuel containing more than 3 percent sulfur, by weight. This regulation is applicable to the Combination Boilers. The applicability of this regulation is already addressed by existing emission limitations. According to Application Number 22133, the sulfur content of the TDF used by PCA will be less than three percent sulfur, by weight. Georgia Air Toxics Guidelines Assessment According to Application Number 22133, PCA completed a site-wide toxic impact assessment in 2005, and the proposed project will not change the conclusions of the original air toxics modeling evaluation. Therefore no updated assessment was conducted as part of this application. Regulatory requirements of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD will involve demonstrating continuous compliance with many toxics potentially emitted from the Combination Boilers. Therefore, the Division agrees that no toxic impact assessment is deemed applicable at this time. D. Compliance Status No noncompliance issues were indicated in Application E. Operational Flexibility No operational flexibility is added, removed, or modified as associated with this permit modification. F. Permit Conditions Permit Condition defines the combination boilers and stack per applicability of 40 CFR 63, Subpart DDDDD.
