TITLE V AIR QUALITY OPERATING PERMIT

Facility Number: F001209 Original Issue Date: 04/04/2005 Permit Number: P0007450 Renewal Date: 10/22/2025 Expiration Date: 10/22/2030

Permittee Name: City of Phoenix Public Works Department Mailing Address: 3060 S. 27th Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85009 Business Name: State Route 85 Landfill Facility Address: 28361 W Patterson Rd, Buckeye, AZ 85326

The City of Phoenix Public Works Department owns and operates the SR-85 Landfill. This active municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF) accepts approximately one million tons of waste annually consisting of household, light commercial and business grade trash from the City and private municipal waste collections. This MSWLF has been designed with a total capacity of 298 million tons and therefore triggers Part 70 permitting requirements in accordance with the provisions of New Source Performance Standards (NSPS), 40 CFR 62, Subpart OOO Federal Plan Requirements for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. SR-85 is also subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 63, Subpart AAAA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NEHSAP) for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills.

This permit is issued in accordance with Maricopa County Air Pollution Control Regulations, Rule 200, Section 301, and Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S) § 49-404c and § 49-480. The attached permit conditions are incorporated into and form an integral part of this Permit. The permit is issued to provide regulators, site operators or owners, and members of the public, a clear picture of what the Permit holder is required to do to meet applicable requirements. As the Permit holder, you are expected to review this Permit, become familiar with its provisions and conditions and to operate in conformance with them. This permit is an enforceable document. Failure to conform to the emission limits and any other condition contained in the permit is a violation of law and will form the basis of enforcement action by the department which may include civil or criminal sanctions.

If the MCAQD Control Officer determines that additional monitoring, sampling, modeling and/or control of emissions from the facility may reasonably be needed to provide for the continued protection of public health, safety and/or welfare, the MCAQD Control Officer will amend the provisions of this permit. This permit may be subject to suspension or revocation for cause including nonpayment of fees, noncompliance with Arizona State Statutes, Maricopa County Air Quality Regulations, or the attached permit conditions, or if the MCAQD Control Officer determines that significant misrepresentation exists in the application and supporting documentation filed to obtain or modify this permit.

In accordance with Maricopa County Air Pollution Control Rules and Regulations (Rules), Rule 210, Section 302.2, all conditions of this permit are federally enforceable unless they are identified as being locally enforceable only. However, any permit condition identified as locally enforceable only will become federally enforceable if, during the term of this permit, the underlying requirement becomes a requirement of the Clean Air Act (CAA) or any of the CAA’s applicable requirements.

All federally enforceable terms and conditions of this permit are enforceable by the Administrator of the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (Administrator or Administrator of the EPA hereafter) and citizens under the CAA.

Any cited regulatory paragraphs or section numbers refer to the version of the regulation that was in effect on the first date of public notice of the applicable permit condition unless specified otherwise. In the event the rules and regulations are amended during the term of this permit, the amended rules and regulations shall apply.

GENERAL CONDITIONS

1. AIR POLLUTION PROHIBITED:

The Permittee shall not discharge from any source whatever into the atmosphere regulated air pollutants which exceed in quantity or concentration that specified and allowed in the County or SIP Rules, the Arizona Administrative Code (A.A.C.), or the Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.), or which cause damage to property or unreasonably interfere with the comfortable enjoyment of life or property of a substantial part of a community, or obscure visibility, or which in any way degrade the quality of the ambient air below the standards established by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors or the Director of the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality

(ADEQ).

[SIP Rule 100 § 301]

2. CIRCUMVENTION:

The Permittee shall not build, erect, install, or use any article, machine, equipment, condition, or any contrivance, the use of which, without resulting in a reduction in the total release of regulated air pollutants to the atmosphere, conceals or dilutes an emission which would otherwise constitute a violation of this permit or any rule or any emission limitation or standard. The Permittee shall not circumvent the requirements concerning dilution of regulated air pollutants by using more emission openings than is considered normal practice by the industry or activity in question.

[SIP Rule 100 § 104]

3. CERTIFICATION OF TRUTH, ACCURACY, AND COMPLETENESS:

Any application form, report, or compliance certification submitted under County or federal rules or these permit conditions shall contain certification by a responsible official of truth, accuracy, and completeness of the application form or report as of the time of submittal.

Any permit noncompliance is grounds for enforcement action; for a permit termination, revocation and reissuance, or revision; or for denial of a permit renewal application. Noncompliance with any federally enforceable requirement in this permit constitutes a violation of the Act.

[SIP Rule 200 § 310.3, 310.4]

b. The Permittee shall halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with applicable requirements of Federal laws, Arizona laws, the County Rules, or other conditions of this permit.

i. Precisely identifies the information in the permit(s), records, or reports that is considered confidential, and

ii. Provides sufficient supporting information to allow the Control Officer to evaluate whether such information satisfies the requirements related to trade secrets or, if applicable, how the information, if disclosed, could cause substantial harm to the person's competitive position. The claim of confidentiality is subject to the determination by the Control Officer as to whether the claim satisfies these requirements.

b. A claim of confidentiality shall not excuse the Permittee from providing any and all information required or requested by the Control Officer and shall not be a defense for failure to provide such information.

c. If the Permittee submits information with an application under a claim of confidentiality pursuant to A.R.S § 49-487 and Rule 200, the Permittee shall submit a copy of such information directly to the Administrator of the EPA.

i. Except as noted in Sections 403 and 405 of County Rule 210, no source may operate after the time that it is required to submit a timely and complete application, except in compliance with a permit issued under Rule 210. Permit expiration terminates the Permittee’s right to operate. However, if a source submits a timely and complete application, as defined in Rule 210, Section 301.4, for permit issuance or renewal, the source's failure to have a permit is not a violation of the County Rules until the Control Officer takes final action on the application. The Source’s ability to operate without a permit as set forth in this paragraph shall be in effect from the date the application is determined to be complete until the final permit is issued. This protection shall cease to apply if, subsequent to the completeness determination, the applicant fails to submit, by the deadline specified in writing by the Control Officer, any additional information identified as being needed to process the application.

[SIP Rule 210 § 301.9]
