M OTION
TO STAY THE EFFECTIVENESS
OF CONTESTED
PERMIT CONDITIONS
NOW
COMES Petitioner, LONE STAR INDUSTRIES,
INC., d/b/a Buzzi
U nicem USA (hereinafter "Lone
Star" or "Petitioner"), by and through its attorneys,
HODGE DWYER ZEMAN,
pursuant to Section 10-65(b) of the Illinois
Administrative
Procedure Act (5 ILCS 100/10-65) and pursuant
to the Illinois Pollution Control Board's
(`Board") authority to grant discretionary stays of permit
conditions (see Community
Landfill Co. and City ofMorris v.
Illinois EPA, PCB Nos, 01-48 and 01.49
(III.Pol.Control.Bd. Oct. 19, 2000)), and hereby
moves the Board to stay the effectiveness
of the
contested conditions of Lone Star's construction permit
at issue in this matter.
In support thereof, Lone Star states as follows:
1.
On April 6, 2007, the Illinois Environmental Protection
Agency ("Illinois
EPA") issued Lone Star a construction
permit (Application No. 06120047),
which
included conditions that are not required
by the Illinois Environmental Protection Act
("Act") or regulations promulgated
thereunder, and are not necessary to correct,
detect, or
prevent noncompliance with, or accomplish
the purpose of, the Act or regulations
promulgated
thereunder.
Electronic Filing, Received, Clerk's Office, May 15, 2007
* * * * PCB 2007-112 * * * * *
2.
Today, Lone Star filed simultaneously with this Motion a timely Petition
for Review of such permit
conditions.
3.
The Board may grant a stay of contested permit conditions
where a
petitioner has requested such a stay. See Midwest Generation, LLC Will County
Generating Station v. Illinois EPA, PCB No. 06-156 (II1.Pol.Control.Bd.
Jul. 20, 2006)
(granting a request for a partial stay of construction permit conditions), North Shore
Sanitary District v. Illinois EPA, PCB No. 03-146 (III.Po1.Control.Bd. Mar. 20, 2003)
(granting Petitioner's Motion to Stay Condition 1 pending the outcome of the appeal),
Hartford Working Group
v.
Illinois EPA, PCB No. 05-74 (I11.Pol.Control.Bd. Nov. 18,
2004) (granting Petitioner's Motion
to Stay Effectiveness of Special Condition 2.0 until
the Board takes final action in the appeal).
4.
A stay of effectiveness
of Permit Conditions 2a, 2b, and 8 of the
construction permit issued to Lone Star on April 6, 2007, is needed
to prevent irreparable
ham
to Petitioner. Permit Conditions 2a and 2b are not clear regarding
the applicability
of the provisions to Lone Star's activities causing Lone Star uncertainty regarding
operations at its facility. Permit Condition 8 requires Lone Star to incur costs to comply
with Condition 8, where the activities that Condition 8 requires are redundant
and overly
burdensome. See Petition for Review. Further, a stay is necessary to protect Petitioner's
right
to appeal
permit
conditions. That is, Lone Star's appeal would be rendered
meaningless if it must comply with these provisions
while its appeal is pending. Finally,
no
adequate remedy
exists at law,
and Lone Star has a probability of success on the
merits. See Petition for Review.
Electronic Filing, Received, Clerk's Office, May 15, 2007
* * * * PCB 2007-112 * * * * *
5.
The Illinois EPA,
the public, and the environment will not be harmed if a
stay is granted.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner, LONE STAR INDUSTRIES, INC.,
d/b/a Buzzi
Unicem USA, moves the Illinois Pollution Control Board to grant
a Stay of Effectiveness
of Permit Conditions 2a,
2b, and 8 of Petitioner's April 6, 2007, construction permit until
the Board's final action in this matter.

PETITION FOR
REVIEW
N OW COMES Petitioner,
LONE STAR INDUSTRIES, INC.,
d/b/a/ Buzzi
Unicem USA (hereinafter "Lone
Star" or "Petitioner"), by and through
its attorneys,
HODGE DWYER
ZEMAN, pursuant to Section 40 of
the Illinois Environmental
Protection Act ("Act") (415
ILCS 5/40) and 35 Ill. Admin. Code
Part 105, Subpart B, and
petitions the Illinois Pollution Control
Board ("Board") for review of
the Construction
Permit
for the Alternative Material Feed System for the Finish Mill granted
to Lone Star
by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
("Illinois EPA") pursuant to
Section
39(a) of
the
Act
on April 6, 2007.
In support thereof, Lone
Star states as follows:
1.
Lone
Star owns and operates a Portland
cement manufacturing facility in
Oglesby, Illinois ("Facility").
2.
On December 12,
2006, Lone Star applied for a construction
permit to
construct emissions sources
and/or air pollution control equipment,
which includes a new
hopper and a conveyor, as well as
an associated increased material
throughput for the
existing finish mill operations.
Electronic Filing, Received, Clerk's Office, May 15, 2007
* * * * PCB 2007-112 * * * * *
3.
On March 19, 2007, Illinois EPA sent a draft construction permit ("draft
permit") (attached hereto as Exhibit A) via electronic mail to Lone Star.
4.
By letter dated March 23, 2007, Lone
Star
provided
comments on the draft
permit ("Comments") (attached hereto as Exhibit B).
5 .
On March 30, 2007, Illinois EPA provided via electronic mail
another
draft permit (attached hereto as Exhibit C) to Lone Star.
6 .
On April 2, 2007, Illinois EPA provided a brief response (attached hereto
as Exhibit D) to Lone Star's Comments.
7 .
On April 6, 2007, Illinois EPA issued a final Construction Permit, Number
06120047 (attached
hereto
as
Exhibit
E), to construct a new hopper and a conveyor, as
well as authorizing an associated increased material throughput for the existing finish
mill operations at the Facility.
8 .
Lone Star received that final Construction Permit via
U.S. Mail on
April 16, 2007.
9 .
As set forth below, Illinois EPA included conditions
in the Construction
Permit that are not required by the Act or regulations promulgated thereunder,
and are not
necessary to correct, detect, or prevent noncompliance with, or to accomplish the
purposes of, the Act or regulations promulgated thereunder.
1 0. Lone Star files this Petition for Review of the Construction Permit on the
grounds set forth below.
11. First, Permit Condition 2a
provides that the permit "does not authorize
physical changes to the existing affected units." Condition 2a.
The Construction Permit,
however, authorizes the construction of emission sources and/or pollution
control
2
Electronic Filing, Received, Clerk's Office, May 15, 2007
* * * * PCB 2007-112 * * * * *
equipment, including a new hopper and conveyor, which when constructed, will be
connected to existing
affected
units.
Lone Star seeks clarification of Condition 2a to
indicate that the construction of the permitted activities
is authorized although such
activities
will
physically change existing affected units.
12. Second, Permit Condition
2b provides, in part, that the "permit does not
relax or otherwise revise any requirements or conditions that
apply to existing affected
u nits...
established in the current CAAPP permit issued for
this source." Condition 2b.
Currently, the CAAPP permit for the Facility is stayed pending the outcome
of
Lone
Star's
appeal
of such permit. See Lone Star Industries Inc v Illinois EPA PCB No.
03-
94 (I11.Po1.Control.Bd. Jan.
9, 2003) (granting Lone Star's motion to stay effectiveness of
CAAPP permit until the Board's final action in the matter or until
the Board states
otherwise). Lone
Star requests that Permit Condition 2b be clarified to acknowledge
that
the conditions of the CAAPP permit at issue
currently are stayed.
1 3. Finally, Permit
Condition 8 requires monthly inspections and maintenance
and repair of the "affected units," both the "new affected
units" to be constructed, and
"existing affected units." Conditions 8a and 86. Permit Condition 8 further
requires that
Lone Star maintain records of such inspections, maintenance,
and repair activities.
Condition Sc. Lone Star explained in its Comments that Condition
8 appears to be
similar to requirements
for certain control equipment at the facility, namely
dust
collectors. Comments at 2. However,
no new control equipment is being installed
pursuant
to this permitted project. Id. Lone Star also noted that the new
affected units
are subject to the MACT emissions limitations
and monitoring requirements at 40 C.F.R.
63, Subpart LLL, and since the MACT monitoring requirements will assure
compliance,
3
Electronic Filing, Received, Clerk's Office, May 15, 2007
* * * * PCB 2007-112 * * * * *
additional inspections
of the affected units are not necessary. Id. Lone
Star further stated
that the
dust collectors for the downstream existing
affected units are subject to the
control equipment inspection
requirements of Section 212.423(d) of the Board's
regulations. Id.; see
also
35 III.
Admin. Code § 212.423(d). Lone Star requests that
Permit Condition 8
be removed from the Construction Permit since
it is redundant of
these other
requirements, and it would be overly burdensome to
maintain detailed records
for each affected unit. d..
14. Lone
Star has no objection to, and does not appeal, any other conditions
included
by Illinois EPA in the Construction Permit.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner,
LONE STAR INDUSTRIES, INC., d/b/a Buzzi
Unicem
USA, petitions the Illinois Pollution
Control Board for a hearing on the Illinois
Environmental Protection
Agency's action issuing the April 6, 2007 Construction Permit
in this fashion.

Comments on the Draft
Construction Permit Application No. 06120047
Lone Star Industries, Inc. (d/b/a Buzzi
Unicem USA)
F acility ID:
099816 AAF
D ear Mr. Patel:
Lone
Star Industries, Inc. (d.b.a. Buzzi Unicem USA) is submitting these comments
on the
Draft Construction Permit Application
No. 06120047 for the proposed alternative material
feed system for the Finish Mill at its Portland
cement manufacturing facility in Oglesby,
Illinois
(Oglesby Plant, ID: 099816 AAF). Buzzi appreciates the opportunity to provide
comments on the draft permit. Buzzi's
comments are provided below.
Draft Condition 4.b-Most of the requirements from 35 IAC 212,
Subpart Q that are
specifically applicable to the new affected units and the existing downstream
affected units
are listed in Draft Conditions 4.b.ii, iii., and iv. Portions of 35 IAC 212, Subpart
Q are not
applicable
to
the
new and existing affected units (e.g., 35 IAC 212.422 and 212.425), Since
most of the applicable requirements are listed, Buzzi requests that the
Illinois Environmental
Protection
Agency (IEPA) change the general rule reference in this condition
to
include
the
specific
portions of the rule applicable to the new and existing affected units.
Draft Condition 6.c.- The condition references
Condition 9(b); however, the permit does not
contain this condition number. Buzzi requests
that IEPA remove this reference.
Draft Condition
6.d. -
Emissions
estimates submitted in the permit application for the new
affected units and potential increases
at the existing affected units downstream of the new
affected units were based on worst-case
assumptions regarding the material type, material
moisture content and maximum material throughput. As a result,
if the material throughput
remains below the maximum throughput provided in the application,
the emissions will not
exceed the limits in Draft Conditions 6.b. and 6.c. Therefore, it is not necessary
to separately

track emissions
to demonstrate that emissions will not exceed the limits if Buzzi tracks
material throughput for the new affected units. Buzzi requests that this condition be revised
as follows (new language is in bold font):
Compliance
with the annual limits shall be determined from a running total of 12 months
of data of the material throughput for the new affected units.
In addition, Buzzi requests that the associated
record keeping condition, Draft Condition
10.a.vii. be deleted.
Draft Condition
8- This condition appears to be similar to other requirements that apply to
control equipment used at the Oglesby
Plant. No new control equipment will be installed for
this project. In addition, the
new affected units and the existing affected units downstream of
the new affected
units are subject to the limits and monitoring requirements of 40 CFR 63,
Subpart LLL (Portland Cement MACT). Additional inspections of the affected units
will not
be necessary to maintain compliance since the MACT monitoring
requirements will assure
compliance. Finally, the dust collectors for the downstream
existing affected units are
currently subject to control equipment
inspection requirements per 35 IAC 212.423(d).
Buzzi requests that IEPA remove Draft Condition 8 since
it is redundant for control devices
and since it would be overly burdensome to
maintain these detailed records for each affected
unit (e.g., each conveyor belt).
Draft
Condition
9-Buzzi's current Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Plan includes the
information required in 40 CFR 63.1350(a)(1) through (4) for
general types of affected
sources (e.g., conveying system transfer points).
The new affected units will be conveying
system transfer points, and conveying system transfer points
are currently included in the
O&M Plan. As a result, the O&M Plan will not require
revisions to include the new
equipment. Buzzi requests that IEPA revise
Draft Condition 9 to reflect that revisions may
not be necessary as follows (new
language is in bold and deleted language is in strikeout):
Pursuant
to 40 CFR 63.1350, the Permittee shall prepare a written operations and
maintenance plan for each new affected unit or revise the existing
operations and
maintenance plan,
as necessary. If it is necessary to revise the plan to satisfy the
requirements of 40 CFR 63.1350(a)(1) through (4), the The plan shall be submitted for
review and approval by the Illinois EPA as part of the application for modified
CAAPP
permit and shall include the information required in 40 CFR
63.1350(a)(1) through (4).
Draft Condition 10. a.- As previously stated,
emissions estimates submitted in the permit
application for the new affected units and potential increases at the existing affected units
downstream of the new affected units were based on worst-case
assumptions regarding the
material type, material moisture content and maximum
material throughput. In addition, the
silt content does not factor into the emissions
calculations, with the exception of the
calculations for the increases at
the existing storage piles. There will not be changes in the
types and general
characteristics of the materials stored in these existing storage piles as a
result of this project
since this system is simply an alternative method of delivering the feed
material to the Finish Mill system. Therefore,
it is unnecessary to record the type, silt

content, and moisture content of each
material handled to demonstrate compliance with the
emissions limits. Buzzi requests that
IEPA remove Draft Condition 10.a.iii. Buzzi also
requests that IEPA
modify Draft Condition IO.a.iv. as follows (deleted language is in
strikeout):
v. Records of
the amount of material handled, by-typpeý tons/month and tons/year.
The Condition number formatting will need to be adjusted since IO.a.v.
is missing.
Draft Condition 12.b. -Buzzi requests that this
condition be replaced as follows to be
consistent with similar conditions received in recent construction permits (i.e., Condition
1.1.10.c. of Application No. 06030057):
The Permittee shall notify the Illinois
EPA of deviations from the requirements of this
permit in accordance
with the general provisions of its CAAPP permit that address
reporting ofdeviations.
It should be noted that the
Clean Air Act Permit Program (CAAPP) permit for the Oglesby
Plant is
currently stayed; therefore, Buzzi is not currently required to report deviations.
Finally, the following are minor typographical errors:

2.a.
-
Remove the word "is".
Draft Condition
5.a. - Remove the word "are".

Subject: Alternate Feed System for Finish Mill - Response to March 23,2007 Letter
The following provides
a
brief response
to each of the points in your
letter dated March 23, 2007
D raft Condition 4(b):
Change
made.
Draft Condition 6(c): Reference corrected
Draft Condition 6(d): No change. Construction permits
for new/modified
units address the emissions consequences of
such units.
Moreover,
as
confirmed by Buzzi's comments,
the emission data provided in the
application is an estimate based
on assumptions. (How does the average
moisture content of a particular class of material constitute a
worst-case assumption for all materials?) If equipment is not operated
properly at all times or different (newly available) alternate materials
are handled, the emissions estimates in the application may understate
emissions.
Draft Condition 8: No change made. This condition only identifies
certain minimum practices m verify proper operation/compliance, which
practices are apparently already being implemented by the source, as
explained by Buzzi's comments. Similarly, the condition only identifies
minimum requirements for associated records. The condition does not
require redundant records, if the records that Buzzi currently keeps
already meet these minimum requirements.
Draft Condition 9: Requested change not made. Condition reworked to
better reflect applicable language of the NESHAP.
Draft Condition 10(a): Condition reworked but not removed. The
application does not identify the "worst-case" assumptions
about the
nature of the alternate materials that would be handled for the finish
mill. For example, it does not identify/address each of the different
types of slag or stone that might be handled. (This recordkeeping would
then be needed to verify that the properties of materials actually being
handled are consistent with the assumptions used to predict emissions.)
In any case, this data is needed to appropriately address actual
emissions of the project ( i.e., very
dusty
=higher concern, less
dusty
=lower concern).
Droll Condition 12(b): A further change will be made, which would
allow the provisions o£ a CAAPP to replace the provisions of the
construction permit. However, the CAAPP permit cannot be relied upon at
this time because the issued CAAPP permit has been stayed and is
currently not in effect.
