San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District PERMIT UNIT: N-1119-1-1 EXPIRATION DATE: 11/30/2006 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION: MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE LANDFILL, 12.4 MILLION CUBIC METER CAPACITY(185 ACRES) PERMIT UNIT I T 1. The NMOC emission rate shall be calculated using the equation in 40CFR60.754(a)(1)(i),if the actual year-to-year solid waste acceptance rate is known or the equation in 40CFR60.754(a)(1)(ii), if the actual year-to-year solid waste acceptance rate is unknown. The values for k,Lo, and CNMOC for both equations shall be taken from 40CFR60.754(a)(1),as appropriate. Both equations may be used if the actual year-to-year acceptance rate is known for a part of the landfill life,but unknown for another part of the landfill life. The mass of nondegradable solid waste may be subtracted from the average annual acceptance rate when calculating R, if documentation of the nature and amount of such wastes is maintained. (Tier 1 specifications) [40 CFR 60.754(a)(1)and 62.14354]Federally Enforceable Through Title V Permit 2. If the calculated NMOC emission rate is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams/year, then the landfill owner or operator shall either comply with the requirements of this permit to submit a collection and control design plan and install the system, or determine a site-specific NMOC concentration and recalculate the NMOC emission rate using Tier 2 specifications. [40 CFR 60.754(a)(2)(ii)and 62.14354]Federally Enforceable Through Title V Permit Tier 2 specifications to determine the site-specific NMOL concentration shall include the following: 1)For sampling, at least 2 sample probes shall be installed per hectare of landfill surface that has retained waste for at least 2 years,up to a maximum of 50 required probes. Probes should be located in known areas of degradable solid waste. One sample of landfill gas shall be collected from each probe to determine the NMOC concentration,using EPA Method 25,25C, another method approved by the EPA,or 18, in accordance with 40 CFR 60.754(a)(3). If EPA Method 18 is used, the minimum list of compounds to be tested shall be those published in the most recent Compilation of AP-42. If composite sampling is used,equal sample volumes are required. All samples taken shall be used in the analysis. The NMOC concentration from Method 25 or 25C shall be divided by 6 to convert frorn C-NMOC, as carbon to as hexane. 2)For landfills equipped with active collection systems, samples may be collected from the common header pipe before gas moving or condensate removal equipment; a minimum of 3 samples must be collected. [40 CFR 60.754(a)(3), (a)(5)and 62.14354] Federally Enforceable Through Title V Permit 4. Tier 2 specifications to determine the site-specific NMOC concentration shall include the following: 1)The NMOC mass emission rate shall be recalculated using the average site-specific concentration,instead of the default value, 2)If the resulting calculated mass emission rate is equal to or greater than 50 megagrams/year,the landfill owner or operator shall either comply with 60.752(b)(2), or determine a site-specific methane generation rate constant and recalculate the NMOC emission rate using Tier 3 specifications. [40 CFR 60.754(a)(3)(i)&(ii) and 62.14354]Federally Enforceable Through Title V Permit 5. If the calculated NMOC mass emission rate,using the site-specific NMOC concentration, is less than 50 megagrams/year,then a periodic estimate of the emission rate report,pursuant to 60.757(b)(1) shall be submitted to the Administrator. The site-specific NMOC concentration shall be retested every 5 years,using Tier 2 specifications. [40 CFR 60.754(a)(3)(iii)and 62.14354]Federally Enforceable Through Title V Permit PERMIT UNIT REQUIREMENTS CONTINUE ON NEXT PAGE These terms and conditions are part of the Facility-wide Permit to Operate.
