State Implementation Plan Revision - Reasonably Available Control Technology Determination

Notice of action: The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is announcing an opportunity for public comment on a proposed plan regarding air pollution emitted by a facility in Henrico County, Virginia. The Commonwealth intends to submit the plan as a revision to the Commonwealth of Virginia State Implementation Plan (SIP) in accordance with the requirements of § 110(a) of the federal Clean Air Act. The SIP is the plan developed by the Commonwealth in order to fulfill its responsibilities under the Act to attain and maintain the ambient air quality standards promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Act.

Purpose of notice: DEQ is seeking comments and announcing a public hearing on a proposed permit to limit air pollution emitted by a facility in Henrico County, Virginia.

Public comment period: January 8, 2014, to February 10, 2014.

Public hearing: Conference Room, Department of Environmental Quality, Piedmont Regional Office, 4949-A Cox Road, Glen Allen VA, at 9 a.m. on February 4, 2014. A question and answer period will be held one half hour prior to the beginning of the public hearing.

Permit name: State Operating Permit issued by DEQ, under the authority of the State Air Pollution Control Board.

Name, address, and registration number: Mondelez Global LLC, Inc. (formerly Kraft Foods Global, Inc., Richmond Bakery), 6002 South Laburnum Avenue, Richmond, VA 23231, Registration No. 50703.

Description of proposal: The proposed revision consists of a determination of reasonably available control technology (RACT) for the control of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to the atmosphere from the Mondelez Global bakery located in the Henrico County, Virginia portion of the Richmond Ozone Maintenance Area. The RACT determination is being made pursuant to 9VAC5-40-7370 of the Virginia Administrative Code. A state operating permit is being issued as an administrative mechanism to enforce the RACT determination. The permit is being issued pursuant to Article 5 (9VAC5-80-800 et seq.) of 9VAC5-80 (Permit for Stationary Sources) of the Virginia Administrative Code and is federally enforceable upon issuance.

A permit was issued to the facility by DEQ on September 19, 2007, which contained the RACT for the control of VOC emissions and specified certain operating conditions for the facility's Oven #1 and catalytic oxidizer. In a subsequent action, the facility requested changes to the permit, including changes needed to accommodate replacement of the catalytic oxidizer with a more efficient regenerative thermal oxidizer. This change in the type of control device did not affect VOC emissions. The revised permit was issued on December 11, 2012, and submitted to EPA as a SIP revision on December 13, 2012. Since then, the permit has been updated to make it more streamlined by removing certain conditions (throughput and emission limits) and regulatory references (to malfunctions) that are not necessary to achieve the RACT requirements. These changes are in the interest of providing clarity and will not result in any change in operations or emissions increase.

Federal information: This notice is being given to satisfy the public participation requirements of federal regulations (40 CFR 51.102). The proposal will be submitted as a revision to the Commonwealth of Virginia SIP under § 110(a) of the federal Clean Air Act in accordance with 40 CFR 51.104.

How to comment: DEQ accepts written comments by email, fax, and postal mail. In order to be considered, written comments must include the full name, address, and telephone number of the person commenting and be received by DEQ by the last day of the comment period. Both oral and written comments are accepted at the public hearing. DEQ prefers that comments be provided in writing, along with any supporting documents or exhibits. All information received is part of the public record.

To review proposal: The proposal and any supporting documents are available on the DEQ Air Public Notices for Plans website: http://www.deq.state.va.us/Programs/Air/
PublicNotices/airplansandprograms.aspx. The documents may also be obtained by contacting the DEQ representative named below. The public may review the documents between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. of each business day until the close of the public comment period at the following DEQ locations:

Small Business Impact Review - Report of Findings

Pursuant to § 2.2-4007.1 of the Code of Virginia, the State Water Control Board has conducted a small business impact review of 9VAC25-101, Tank Vessel Oil Discharge Contingency Plan and Financial Responsibility Regulation, and determined that this regulation should be retained in its current form. The State Water Control Board is publishing its report of findings dated January 8, 2014, to support this decision in accordance with § 2.2-4007.1 G of the Code of Virginia.

The primary goal of this regulation is to protect the environment from discharges of oil from tank vessels by establishing procedures and requirements for operators to respond to the threat of an oil discharge and to contain, clean up, and mitigate a discharge within the shortest feasible time, as well as demonstrate adequate financial responsibility to cover the costs of clean up and the liabilities for damages specified in the law.

The federal Oil Pollution Act of 1990 contains many of the same requirements as this regulation. State statute and regulation recognizes that an operator's compliance with the requirements of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 complies with Virginia's statutory and regulatory requirements. This minimizes the impact that these regulations have on the regulated community, and allows for the regulated community to comply with federal requirements as they operate through multiple jurisdictions.

Any changes the board would propose to the regulations to lessen the burden on small businesses would not be realized by small businesses since they would still be required by federal law to meet existing federal requirements.

Small Business Impact Review - Report of Findings

Pursuant to § 2.2-4007.1 of the Code of Virginia, the State Water Control Board has conducted a small business impact review of 9VAC25-590, Petroleum Underground Storage Tank Financial Responsibility Requirements, and determined that this regulation should be retained in its current form. The State Water Control Board is publishing its report of findings dated January 10, 2014, to support this decision in accordance with § 2.2-4007.1 G of the Code of Virginia.

The regulation provides financial responsibility requirements and different types of financial mechanisms that may be used to cover these responsibilities. Financial assurance needs to be provided by owners/operators to ensure that owners/operators will be able to clean up any releases of petroleum that mat occur from underground storage tanks (USTs).

Virginia's regulations are based on federal regulations; however, state regulations provide more flexibility to owners/operators. State regulations allow certificate of deposits (CDs) to be used to provide financial assurance. Federal regulations do not specifically allow CDs to be used to demonstrate financial assurance; however, EPA granted Virginia approval to include the CD as an option. Virginia has established the Virginia Petroleum Storage Tank Fund (Fund) that assists owners/operators with demonstrating financial responsibility. Owners/operators use the Fund in combination with another mechanism to demonstrate financial responsibility. Without the use of the Fund, most owners/operators would be required to demonstrate as much as $1,000,000, which would be burdensome, especially on small businesses. Allowing the Fund to be used to demonstrate a portion of the owner's/operator's financial assurance greatly reduces the regulatory burden on owners/operators.

The regulations were last amended in October 2013 to include CDs as an acceptable mechanism for providing financial assurance. The addition of the option to use a CD as a mechanism for providing financial assurance benefits owners/operators by allowing them to utilize a mechanism that a third party does not charge a fee to administer. Previously, owners/operators using a letter of credit (LOC) were assessed fees from third parties to maintain this mechanism and were frequently required to have a CD with the third party in order to receive the LOC. This change revised the regulations to address changes that had occurred in the banking industry.
