               Mechanical Section Policy Memorandum

                 

Date:  March 24, 1994                          No.: 12

From:  Kevin Ellis

Approved by:  Gary Wallin, P.E. 

Subject:  Waste Blend Fuel Oil use in Std. Ex. 99

                  

Policy:   

Waste blend fuel oil shall not be approved for use in Standard
Exemption No. 99.  By definition, standard exemptions will not
make a significant contribution of air contaminants to the
atmosphere.  The use of waste blend fuel oil has the potential
to make such a contribution, therefore requiring a permit.  

Background:  

CSA Materials operates two standard exempted asphalt concrete
plants that were previously authorized to burn a 'refined'
waste blend fuel.  CSA Materials wished to temporarily operate
an additional asphalt concrete plant under Standard Exemption
No. 99 at this existing site, utilizing the current fuel
tanks, until a permit was obtained for the plant at a grass
roots site.

Necessary Action:  None
