Operational Flexibility
10 CSR 10-6.065(6)(C)8.
An installation that has been issued a Part 70 operating permit is not required to apply for or obtain a permit revision in
order to make any of the changes to the permitted installation described below if the changes are not Title I modifications,
the changes do not cause emissions to exceed emissions allowable under the permit, and the changes do not result in the
emission of any air contaminant not previously emitted. The permittee shall notify the Air Pollution Control Program and
the Administrator at least seven (7) days in advance of these changes, except as allowed for emergency or upset
conditions. Emissions allowable under the permit means a federally enforceable permit term or condition determined at
issuance to be required by an applicable requirement that established an emissions limit (including a work practice
standard) or a federally enforceable emissions cap that the source has assumed to avoid an applicable requirement to
which the source would otherwise be subject.
I) Section 502(b)(IO) changes. Changes that, under section 502(b)(IO) of the Act, contravene an express permit term
may be made without a permit revision, except for changes that would violate applicable requirements of the Act or
contravene federally enforceable monitoring (including test methods), record keeping, reporting or compliance
requirements of the permit.
A) Before making a change under this provision, The permittee shall provide advance written notice to the Air
Pollution Control Program and to the Administrator, describing the changes to be made, the date on which the
change will occur, and any changes in emission and any permit terms and conditions that are affected. The
permittee shall maintain a copy of the notice '.11ith the permit, and this agency shall place a copy with the permit in
the public file. Written notice shall be provided to the administrator and this agency at least seven (7) days before
the change is to be made. If less than seven (7) days notice is provided because of a need to respond more quickly
to these unanticipated conditions, The permittee shall provide notice to the administrator and the permitting
authority as soon as possible after learning of the need to make the change.
B) The permit shield shall not apply to these changes.
Off-Permit Changes
10 CSR 10-6.065(6)(C)9.
I) Except as noted below, The permittee may make any change in its permitted operations, activities or emissions that is
not addressed in, constrained by or prohibited by this permit without obtaining a permit revision. Insignificant
activities listed in the application, but not otherwise addressed in or prohibited by this permit, shall not be considered
to be constrained by this permit for purposes of the off-permit provisions of this section. Off-permit changes shall be
subject to the following requirements and restrictions:

STATEMENT OF BASIS
Permit Reference Documents
These documents were relied upon in the preparation of the operating permit. Because they are not
incorporated by reference, they are not an official part of the operating permit.
1) Part 70 Operating Permit Application, received May 12, 1997;
2) 2000 Emissions Inventory Questionnaire; and
3) U.S. EPA document AP-42, Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors; Volume I, Stationary Point
and Area Sources, Fifth Edition.
Applicable Requirements Included in the Operating Permit but Not in the Application
In the operating permit application, the installation indicated they were not subject to the following
regulation( s ). However, in the review of the application, the agency has determined that the installation is
subject to the following regulation(s) for the reasons stated.
10 CSR 10-6.180, Measurement of Emissions of Air Contaminants
This rule has been included in the operating permit in order to provide citing for the allowance of requests
for emissions data results. On past forms issued by the Air Pollution Control Program, including the
application for this permit, it was automatically marked as an administrative rule not required to be listed as
an applicable requirement. It is no longer judged to be solely administrative and is, therefore, included in
the operating permit.
10 CSR 1 0-6.220, Restriction of Emission of Visible Air Contaminants
This rule had not been created at the time of application; however, it has been determined to be applicable to the
installation and, therefore, has been included in the operating permit.
10 CSR 10-6.260, Restriction of Emission ofSulfor Compounds
This rule had not been created at the time of application; however, it has been determined to be applicable to
the installation and, therefore, has been included in the operating permit.
10 CSR 10-6.280, Compliance Monitoring Usage
On December 5, 2001, the Air Pollution Control Program received a letter from EPA Region VII stating
EPA had determined that the language in the State Implementation Plan regarding credible evidence is an
applicable requirement and must be included in:each Title V operating permit. On July 2, 2002, the Air
Pollution Control Program responded to EPA Region VII and agreed to include 10 CSR 10-6.280,
Compliance Monitoring Usage, in the Core Permit Requirements Section of the Title V operating permit to
address the issue.
10 CSR 10-6.400, Restriction of Emission of Particulate Matter From Industrial Processes
This rule had not been created at the time of application; however, it has been determined to be applicable to
the installation and, therefore, has been included in the operating permit.

10 CSR 10-6.250, Asbestos Abatement Projects -Certification, Accreditation. and Business Exemption
Requirements
The installation is subject to these regulations if they undertake any projects that deal with or involve any
asbestos containing materials. In the installation's operating permit application and according to agency
records, there was no indication that any projects were underway at the time of this review that deal with or
involve asbestos containing material at this installation.
If the installation should undertake any construction or demolition projects in the future, which deal with or
involve any asbestos containing materials, the installation must follow all of the applicable requirements of
the above rules related to that specific project
Other Air Regulations Determined Not to Apply to the Operating Permit
The APCP has determined the following requirements to not be applicable to this installation at this time for the
reasons stated.
St. Louis City Ordinances Nos. 50163, 55100, 55923, 58040, 59270, 60023, and 60629
These ordinances were reviewed and considered at the time the application for this permit was submitted.
Since that time, these ordinances have been repealed and replaced with St. Louis City Ordinance No. 64749.
The only section of Ordinance 64749 that corresponds to a rescinded ordinance included in the State SIP
and therefore federally enforceable is Section 17 -Open Burning Restrictions. This section is the only
section listed in this Operating Permit.
10 CSR I 0-5.150, Emissions of Certain Sulfur Compounds Restricted
This rule has been rescinded. Control of emissions of sulfur dioxide is addressed in 10 CSR 10-6.260.
10 CSR 10-5.450, Control ofVOC Emissions from Traffic Coatings
This regulation was determined to not apply to this plant since the plant controls the ingress and egress of
traffic at the plant, thus the plant is not public property.
I 0 CSR 10-5.050, Restriction of Emission of Particulate Matter From Industrial Processes
This rule has been rescinded and been replaced by 10 CSR 10-6.400.
Construction Permit Revisions
The following revisions were made to construction permits for this installation:
1) St. Louis City Construction Permit #95-05-068
Section V deals with the initial performance test requirements for #1 through #5 incinerators. Since the
installation has already completed the performance testing requirements for construction permit number
#95-05-068, the conditions are not included in the operating permit.
Section VII deals with inspections and the authority to inspect. Since inspection and the authority to inspect
are requirements of the P70 permit and included in the general requirements section of this permit, the
provisions of Section VII of construction permit #95-05-068 are not included in the operating permit.

40 CFR Part 60 Subpart De, Standards of Peiformance for Small Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam
Generating Units
This rule is applicable to Sludge Building Boilers #1-#3 (EU0100-EU0120)) due to the installation date and
the size of the boiler. However, since this facility only uses natural gas and propane for fuel, there are no
specific limitations for sulfur dioxide and particulate matter from this rule except the record keeping
requirement of 40 CFR 60.48c.
40 CFR Part 60 Subpart 0, Standards of Peiformance for Sewage Treatment Plants
The provisions of this subpart apply to each incinerator that combusts wastes containing more than ten
percent (I 0%) sewage sludge (dry basis) produced by municipal sewage treatment plants, or each
incinerator that charges more than I 000 kg (2205 lb) per day municipal sewage sludge (dry basis) and that
commences construction or modification after June 11, 1973. Since incinerators #1-#5 (EU001 O-E0050)
were constructed in 1967, the requirements of this subpart would not apply. Whereas incinerator #6
(EU0060) installed/constructed in 1991 is subject to the requirements of this subpart.
MACT Applicability

The plant is considered an existing non-industrial source under this rule. As an existing non-industrial
source, the plant does not have additional control requirements and is not required to submit a notification of
compliance status under this subpart.
40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T, National Emission Standards for Halogenated Solvent Cleaning
The provisions of this subpart apply to each individual batch vapor, in-line vapor, in-line cold, and batch
cold solvent cleaning machine that uses any solvent containing methylene chloride, perchloroethylene,
trichloroethylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride or chloroform, or any combination of these
halogenated HAP solvents, in a total concentration greater than five percent (5%) by weight, as a cleaning
and/or drying agent. Wipe cleaning activities, such as using a rag containing halogenated solvent are not
covered under the provisions of this subpart.
The permittee has Safety-Kleen unit which does not use halogenated solvents as defined in 40. CFR 63.460,
therefore the unit is not subject to the MACT standards for halogenated solvent cleaning.
NESHAP Applicability
10 CSR 10-6.080, Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
40 CFR Part 61, Subpart C, National Emission Standard/or Beryllium
The provisions of this subpart apply to extraction plants, ceramic plants, foundries, incinerators, and
propellant plants which process beryllium ore, beryllium, beryllium oxide, beryllium alloys, or beryllium-
containing waste; and machine shops which process beryllium, beryllium oxides, or any alloy when such
alloy contains more than five percent (5%) beryllium by weight. The permittee has six (6) incinerators
(EUOO 1 O-EU0060) which bum beryllium containing sewage sludge, therefore the incinerators are subject to
the NESHAP standard for beryllium.

The provisions of this subpart are applicable to those stationary sources which process mercury ore to
recover mercury, use mercury chlor-alkali cells to produce chlorine gas and alkali metal hydroxide, and
incinerate or dry wastewater treatment plant sludge. The permittee has six (6) incinerators (EUOOIO-
EU0060) which burn dry wastewater treatment plant sludge, therefore the incinerators are subject to the
NESHAP standard for mercury.
40 CFR Part 61, Subpart M: National Emission Standard for Asbestos
This regulation applies to the installation because of policy made by the department that this subpart will
apply to all Part 70 sources.

b) Sand Blaster and Paint Spray Booth
SB-5
Project No. 1997-05-008
The particulate matter potential emissions from the operation of the sand blaster and small parts spray
paint operation are 0.0011bslhr and 0.0841bslhr, respectively. Since these units potentially emit less
than one-half (0.5) pounds of particulate matter per hour they are exempt from the requirements of this
rule. [10 CSR 10-6.400(1)(B)11.].
2) 10 CSR 10-5.330, Control of Emissions from Industrial Surface Coating Operations.
MSD does operate small parts spray booth, but for this rule to apply, the installation's actual emissions
must be greater than two and one-half (2.5) tons in any calendar year after December 1, 1989 ofVOCs
from surface coating operations covered under this rule.
Annual paint usage= 10 gallons at 8.3 lbs ofVOC per gallon of paint,
VOC Emission= (1 0 gal x 8.3 lbs/gal) x 0.0005 ton!lb = 0.04 ton/year
MSD's actual emissions are much lower than the applicability threshold of2.5 tons per calendar year,
therefore this rule does not apply to the small spray booth.
3) 10 CSR 10-6.260, Restriction of Emission ofSulfor Compounds.
Compliance Determination for EU0010 through EU0060 (Sulfur Dioxide Concentration Calculations for
Incinerators #1 through #6):
10 CSR 10-6.260 limits the S02 concentration from incinerators 1-5 to 2000 ppmv (existing source-
installed in 1967) and for Incinerator #6 to 500 ppmv (new source-installed in 1991). The so2
concentration from incinerators 1-6 would not exceed the 2000 ppmv and 500 ppmv S02 concentrations
respectively, under any circumstances, as shown below. The S02 emission factor used-0.2 lbs/ton of dry

This regulation was rescinded on December 9, 1991, but it remains in the State Implementation Plan.
Though the installation is subject to the requirements of this rule, it is not included in the operating permit
for the particulate matter standard of this rule is less stringent than the construction permit (Permit No. 95-
05-068) and the NSPS Subpart 0 standards. Compliance with the construction permit and the NSPS will
ensure compliance with this rule.
6) St. Louis City Ordinance 64749 §18, Incinerators
Though the installation is subject to the requirements of this rule, it is not included in the operating permit
for the standards for incinerators of this ordinance are less stringent than the construction permit (Permit
No. 95-05-068) and the NSPS Subpart 0 standards. Compliance with the construction permit and the
NSPS will ensure compliance with this ordinance.
7) 10 CSR 10-6.065(3)(0), Operating Permits
The installation has reported combustion units of varying size listed in the table below as insignificant
emission units. All of these combustion units emit only combustion products, produce less than one
hundred fifty (150) pounds per day of any air contaminant and have a maximum rated capacity of less
than ten (1 0) million British thermal units (BTUs) per hour heat input by using exclusively natural gas
and/or propane. The APCP has determined that units such as these are not necessary to include in the
operating permit.
EP# Description Fuel Type* Maximum Heat lnput (MMBTU/hr)
17 Sludge Building Boiler 4 Natural Gas 0.63
21 Four Direct Fired Heaters Natural Gas 0.85 (each)
24 Four (4) Water Heaters Natural Gas 0.75 (total)
* Propane w1ll be used for emergency back-up fue\.
8) The following is the list of storage tanks which are identified as insignificant activities at the time of
permit issuance. None of the storage tanks at this installation are large enough for 40 CFR 60 Subparts K,
Ka and Kb regulations to apply.
EPll Underground Diesel Tank, 550 gallons
EP12 Back-up Underground Diesel Tank, 1000 gallons
9) EU0150 through EU0180-Six Natural Gas Fired Boilers (each less than 10 MMBtu/hr):
10 CSR I 0-6.260 and 10 CSR 10-5.030 are applicable to the boilers. However, the emissions of
particulate matter or sulfur compounds from firing natural gas would never be expected to exceed the
requirements of these rules. Therefore, these rules are not listed as specific for these boilers.

Other Regulations Not Cited in the Operating Permit or the Above Statement of Basis
Any regulation which is not specifically listed in either the Operating Permit or in the above Statement of Basis
does not appear, based on this review, to be an applicable requirement for this installation for one (1) or more of
the following reasons:
1. The specific pollutant regulated by that rule is not emitted by the installation;
2. The installation is not in the source category regulated by that rule;
3. The installation is not in the county or specific area that is regulated under the authority of that rule;
4. The installation does not contain the type of emission unit which is regulated by that rule;
5. The rule is only for administrative purposes.
Should a later determination conclude that the installation is subject to one (1) or more of the regulations cited
in this Statement of Basis or other regulations which were not cited, the installation shall determine and
demonstrate, to the APCP's satisfaction, the installation's compliance with that regulation(s). If the installation
is not in compliance with a regulation which was not previously cited, the installation shall submit to the APCP
a schedule for achieving compliance for that regulation(s).
