4 NOTICE TO THE PERMITTEE: Your stationary source may be subject to the requirements of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency s (MPCA) solid waste, hazardous waste, and water quality programs. If you wish to obtain information on these programs, including information on obtaining any required permits, please contact the MPCA general information number at: Metro Area Outside Metro Area TTY The rules governing these programs are contained in Minn. R. chs Written questions may be sent to: Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, 520 Lafayette Road North, St. Paul, Minnesota Questions about this air emission permit or about air quality requirements can also be directed to the telephone numbers and address listed above. PERMIT SHIELD: Subject to the limitations in Minn. R , compliance with the conditions of this permit shall be deemed compliance with the specific provision of the applicable requirement identified in the permit as the basis of each condition. Subject to the limitations of Minn. R and , subp. 2, notwithstanding the conditions of this permit specifying compliance practices for applicable requirements, any person (including the Permittee) may also use other credible evidence to establish compliance or noncompliance with applicable requirements.

5 FACILITY DESCRIPTION: St. Mary s is a tertiary care hospital which includes several buildings located on a 49 acre campus. The primary emission units at the facility are three identical boilers which exhaust through a common stack, one cogeneration turbine, and two emergency generators. Each boiler combusts natural gas with distillate fuel as backup. The cogeneration turbine burns only natural gas. One generator burns only distillate oil; the other can burn distillate oil or natural gas (with a small amount of distillate oil; dual fuel). While St. Mary s is owned and operated by the Mayo Foundation, it is not contiguous with the majority of the Mayo facilities in Rochester, and thus is a separate source under the New Source Review and Part 70 regulations. The facility is an existing major source under New Source Review and a minor HAP source. The facility is located in an area that was previously designated as non-attainment for SO 2. However, the area currently meets the ambient air quality standards, and was officially redesignated as attainment on May 8, The facility has been subject to a federally enforceable permit (No OT-2; part of Minnesota s state implementation plan, or SIP, for attaining ambient air quality standards) containing requirements contributing to the correction of the non-attainment problem and the ultimate redesignation. The requirements of that permit were incorporated into the title V operating permit No , as non-expiring Title I conditions. Permit No , replaces permit No , and will ultimately replace permit No OT-2 and be incorporated into the SIP (sometime after issuance of permit No ). PER 002 AMENDMENT DESCRIPTION: This is a major amendment to an existing major source operating permit. This permit amendment authorizes the Permittee to install a 2500 KW reciprocating internal combustion engine (RICE) electric generator, and reduces the allowable diesel fuel sulfur content for two existing electric generators (EU 004 and EU 005). The new RICE is referred to as EU 012/Generator 7. The RICE is a compression ignition nonemergency model year diesel engine with a displacement less than 10 liters per cylinder, and certified by the manufacturer to meet part 60, subpart IIII table 1 emission limits. PER 003 AMENDMENT DESCRIPTION: This administrative amendment corrects a typographical error in permit No The error was in the third requirement on page A-8 and pertained to the termination date for the 500 part per million by weight diesel fuel sulfur content limit. Permit No , listed the date incorrectly as September 20, The date is corrected to September 30, 2010, by this administrative amendment.

6 TABLE A: LIMITS AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS A-1 03/01/10 Facility Name: Permit Number: St Marys Table A contains limits and other requirements with which your facility must comply. The limits are located in the first column of the table (What To do). The limits can be emission limits or operational limits. This column also contains the actions that you must take and the records you must keep to show that you are complying with the limits. The second column of Table A (Why to do it) lists the regulatory basis for these limits. Appendices included as conditions of your permit are listed in Table A under total facility requirements. Subject Item: Total Facility What to do SITE-SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS Why to do it Parameters Used in Modeling: The stack parameters used in the most recently approved modeling are listed in Appendix B of this permit. Before making any physical changes or changes in the method of operation which may affect parameters listed in Appendix B, the Permittee shall demonstrate to the MPCA that the SO2 plume dispersion characteristics following the physical change or change in method of operation will be equivalent to or better than the SO2 dispersion characteristics modeled using the parameters in Appendix B. The information submitted must include, at a minimum, the locations, heights, and diameters of the stacks, locations and dimensions of nearby buildings, the velocity and temperature of the gasses emitted, and the SO2 emission rates. If the information does not demonstrate equivalent or better dispersion characteristics, or if a conclusion cannot readily be made about the dispersion, the Permittee must remodel. ACTIVITIES NOT REQUIRING A MODIFICATION TO THE SIP: The Permittee is authorized to make changes to the facility in compliance with Minnesota Rules and without obtaining a modification to the SIP as long as the change does not increase from any emission point, the SO2 emission rates (in lb/hr) or overall SO2 emissions or alter equipment or parameters described in Appendix B, which forms the basis for the SO2 modeling, unless such alteration demonstrates equivalent or better dispersion characteristics. Deviations from requirements cited as "Title I Condition: SIP for SO2 NAAQS" shall be reported semiannually with the Semiannual Deviations Report required by this permit (See Table B). Reporting for these conditions shall occur even if there were no deviations for the reporting period. State Implementation Plan Recordkeeping: Retain all records at the stationary source for a period of five years from the date of the required monitoring, sample, measurement, or report that corresponds with a "Title I Condition: SIP for SO2 NAAQS" requirement. The facility currently uses ozone-depleting substances as defined in 40 CFR pt. 82. Sections of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments and 40 CFR pt. 82 may apply to your facility. Read Sections and 40 CFR pt. 82 to determine all the requirements that apply to your facility. DETERMINING IF A PROJECT/MODIFICATION IS SUBJECT TO NSR These requirements apply if a reasonable possibility (RP) as defined in 40 CFR Section 52.21(r)(6)(vi) exists that a proposed project, analyzed using the actual-to-projected-actual (ATPA) test (either by itself or as part of the hybrid test at Section 52.21(a)(2)(iv)(f)) and found to not be part of a major modification, may result in a significant emissions increase (SEI). If the ATPA test is not used for the project, or if there is no RP that the proposed project could result in a SEI, these requirements do not apply to that project. The Permittee is only subject to the Preconstruction Documentation requirement for a project where a RP occurs only within the meaning of Section 52.2(r)(6)(vi)(a). and MN State Implementation Plan and MN State Implementation Plan and MN State Implementation Plan and MN State Implementation Plan 40 CFR pt. 82 Title I Condition: 40 CFR Section 52.21(r)(6); Minn. R ; Minn.
