| Purpose of the meeting A Department of Environmental Quality public hearing on a draft significant permit amendment to the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Permit for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber facility in Danville. The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company has applied for a significant permit amendment to their PSD permit dated 12/3/14, as amended 11/27/17. The facility is classified as a major source of air pollution. This current application for amendment does not include any new or modified emissions units, nor does it change any allowed emission limits at the facility. The 2014 PSD permit, as amended in 2017 was subject to major new source review for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) for which there is no increment. The current application does request refinement of two provisions to the current permit language. First, the current amendment adds a parallel, equivalent, concentration-based statement of performance to the permitted destruction efficiency for the Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) to address acceptable operation of that air pollution control device during expected periods of low inlet pollutant loading. Second, the current amendment replaces the single, historic, composite, plantwide emission limit on VOC from the application of refresher solvent with two subset emissions limits on the same emissions. Each subset is a function of one of the two types of tires produced at the facility (that is, aircraft tires or truck tires). The new permitted values are a tire-type-specific reapportionment of same dataset used to set the former composite value. No adverse impact on air quality near the facility is expected from the implementation of these two refinements. The comment period begins on May 18 and ends on July 5, 2018. | |
