The purpose of these reports is to report EDC's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of ROP number MI-ROP-N3294-2024. During the review of these reports, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Landfill Gas (LFG) MI-ROP-N3294-2024, Section 2 The facility noted 13 five Treatment System FGTREATMENTSYS-XXX, (5) minute occurrences (EUTREATSYS1) Special Condition (SC) III.1 when treated LFG was (40 CFR 60.762(b)(2)(iii)(C)) vented to ambient air and through a release valve. FGTREATMENTSYS-AAA, SC III.2 (40 CFR 63.1959(b)(2)(iii)(C)) The ROP semiannual and annual compliance reports noted that during the first half of 2023, EDC discovered treated LFG was being vented to the atmosphere through a release valve located between the Plant 1 treatment system and the engines. EDC identified 9 occasions when LFG was released during the first half of 2023 (2/17/23, 3/6/23, 3/7/23, 3/21/23, 4/26/23, 4/28/23, 5/23/23, 6/19/23, and 6/22/23) and 4 occasions during the second half of 2023 (8/25/23, 10/16/23, 11/1/23, and 11/9/23). The facility conservatively estimated each event to have lasted no more than five (5) minutes. EDC determined that the issue was initially caused by high oxygen in the LFG being combusted in the engines. The high oxygen caused the engines to shut down, allowing the residual treated LFG in the fuel line to be vented through the release valve.

As part of the smoke test observation, a site walk through was completed. The purpose of the test observation and associated site walk through was to determine Minth Group LTD’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 119-20. During the observation, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUCOATING PTI No. 119-20 Special Positive pressure was Condition (SC) III.4 observed at the top right corner of the cool down tunnel following the cure oven exit. EUCOATING Rule 336.1201 (Rule 201) Information provided in the PTI application regarding the air stream pathway and emissions control of EUCOATING does not accurately reflect actual operation. EUCOATING SC III.4. of PTI No. 119-20 states the permittee shall maintain a negative pressure differential between the non-fugitive enclosure and the adjacent area through each natural draft opening (NDO). An NDO is defined as any opening that is not connected to a duct in which a fan or blower is installed. To demonstrate a negative pressure differential, SC V.2. states the permittee shall semi-annually verify that the 401 KETCHUM STREET • SUITE B • BAY CITY, MICHIGAN 48708 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-894-6200John Zanti Minth Group LTD Page 2 April 22, 2024 direction of air flow at each natural draft opening (NDO) is into the non-fugitive enclosure, using a smoke test (i.e., smoke bomb, smoke tube). AQD staff observed the smoke tube test completed on April 11, 2024. NDOs identified in which smoke tube testing was completed include the pre-wash entrance and the cure oven exit. The direction of airflow was verified at all four corners and the center of each NDO. A cool down tunnel extension had been added to the cure oven exit. Smoke tube testing for the cure oven exit was conducted at the opening of the new cool down tunnel. During the smoke tube test, air flow was observed flowing away from the enclosure in the top right corner of the cure oven exit. Smoke flowing away from the enclosure indicates a positive pressure and is a violation of SC III.4. In conjunction with the smoke tube test observation, AQD staff conducted a site walk through. A stack vent was located directly out the original cure oven exit and within the new cool down tunnel. This stack was previously reported to be capped. At the time of smoke tube testing, the stack was observed to be uncapped with a damper installed. The damper was observed to be in an open position allowing air flow out the stack. During the site walk through, a duct was observed exiting the E-Cube room associated with the primer booth and out the roof of the facility. An elbow was observed on the stack with a duct that goes to the regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO). Dampers were observed to be in place allowing staff to manually direct air flow out the stack, or to the RTO. At the time of smoke tube testing, the dampers were observed to be in a position directing air flow out the stack, bypassing the RTO. Current site operations do not appear to be reflective of how the process was evaluated at the time of permitting. The Permit to Install evaluation was done based off information provided in the permit application, with the assumption that the coating line operates with a 100% capture efficiency in which the air stream is sent to a RTO for VOC emission control. The additional stacks present, venting to atmosphere, means 100% capture efficiency is not being achieved. Inaccurate / missing required information from a PTI application is a violation of Rule 336.1201, also known as Rule 201. Rule 201 outlines the Permit to Install requirements. Rule 201(b) states a person who plans to install, construct, reconstruct, relocate, or modify any such process or process equipment shall apply to the department for a Permit to Install on an application form approved by the department and shall provide the information required in R 336.1203, also known as Rule 203. Rule 203 lists what information that must be included in a PTI application. Rule 203(a) states the application shall provide the capture and removal efficiency of any air pollution control devices. Additionally, Rule 203(e) states the application shall include a description of each stack or vent related to the proposed process equipment, including the minimum anticipated height above ground, maximum anticipated internal dimensions, discharge orientation, exhaust volume flow rate, exhaust gas temperature, and rain protection device, if any. 401 KETCHUM STREET • SUITE B • BAY CITY, MICHIGAN 48708 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-894-6200John Zanti Minth Group LTD Page 3 April 22, 2024 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by May 13, 2024 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Sulfur dioxide in coke oven gas is limited to 0.702 lbs/kscf COG on a 1-hr average in SC I.18 of PTI 51-08C, EUCOKE-BATTERY. According to the information provided in the March 15, 2024, revised report, an error was discovered that resulted in four previously unreported exceedances of SC. I.18 which are listed in the table above. Additionally, SC VII.2 of EUCOKE-BATTERY in PTI 51-08C, requires, in part, that “the permittee shall report, in a satisfactory manner, the 1-hr average SO emission rate as 2 described in emission limit SC I.18 on a quarterly basis including any data substitution for each hour of monitor downtime.” As these exceedances were not included in the original 2015 report, this is a failure to report in a satisfactory manner. Furthermore, the SO exceedances represent deviations from the ROP requirements 2 that should have been reported. The AQD administrative rules at R 336.1213(3)(c) require the reporting of deviations not less than once every 6 months and further require the report to be certified by the facility’s responsible official for its truth, accuracy, and completeness after reasonable inquiry.

ROOS GOVERNOR DIRECTOR April 10, 2024 VIA EMAIL Craig Bishop, Operations Manager Northern Steel Services 11341 West Vienna Road Montrose, Michigan 48457 SRN: P0972, Genesee County Dear Craig Bishop: VIOLATION NOTICE On March 15, 2024, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an inspection of Northern Steel Services located at 11341 West Vienna Road, Montrose, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine Northern Steel Services' compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 161-18. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUPAINTAREA3 PTI 161-18, FGCOATING Records showed that in May and Special Condition (SC) I.1 June of 2023, the 2,000 pounds per month volatile organic compound (VOC) emission limit for a single paint area was exceeded. The records provided, demonstrate that in May and June of 2023, actual emissions of VOCs from the Paint Area 3 process equipment, were 2,055 pounds and 2,330 pounds, respectively. This is a violation of PTI 161-18, FGCOATING, SC I.1, which limits each coating area to 2,000 pounds of VOC per month, including all associated purge and clean- up operations. Please note that PTI 161-18 was written so that Northern Steel Services had emission limits in the flexible groups FGCOATING and FGMETALPARTS, which allowed the company to use the exemption of Rule 621(10) of the administrative rules from the coating content VOC limits of Rule 621. This exemption was contingent upon meeting the VOC emission limits in the PTI. Because the 2,000 pounds per month VOC limit was exceeded, it will be necessary for Northern Steel Services to determine if during the months of CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

Keith Walker II: VIOLATION NOTICE On February 4, and February 5, 2024, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted investigations in response to complaints of fallout in Melvindale and Detroit. Fallout allegedly occurred overnight from February 3 to 4 in Melvindale and between the afternoon of February 3 and the early morning of February 5 in Detroit. The scope of the investigations included the operations at Edw. C. Levy Co. Plant 6 (Levy Plant 6) located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigations was to determine Levy Plant 6’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the administrative rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP- B4243-2016. During the investigations, AQD staff observed fallout on complainants’ property and surrounding areas and samples of the fallout were collected and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Final lab results were received on March 22, 2024, and indicate the composition of the fallout samples is consistent with materials associated with slag processing at Levy Plant 6. As a result, the following violation was observed: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Steel slag handling General Condition 12(b) Detection of fallout beyond the and processing of ROP No. MI-ROP- facility's property line, attributable to operations B4243-2016 the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable R 336.1901(b) interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.

In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the fallout that was observed was of sufficient intensity, frequency, and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A viscous fallout was observed by staff on vehicles in a parking lot adjacent to the facility. Multiple complaints of this nature have been received with some complaints reporting the inclusion of charred remnants accompanying the highly viscous liquid fallout. AQD staff observed the same charred remnants while on the facility roof during the most recent stack test (March 5, 2024) for ML2ALB. Facility staff reported they are aware that this is an ongoing issue. On March 20, 2024, AQD staff observed the operation of ML2ALB while the Venturi scrubbers were operating in an unsatisfactory manner. Facility staff reported that the four scrubbers are operating at a velocity which is not allowing the proper removal of air contaminants from stack exhaust. Additionally, it was reported that the facility has been aware for some time now that an additional stack is required to separate cold and hot exhaust flows from the ML2ALB process to avoid fallout from occurring. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.

(DCP) located at 604 S. Michigan Avenue, Howell, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine DCP's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) numbers 367-83B, 386-85A, 672-88, 673-88, 675-88A, and 677-88; and the First Amended Consent Decree, Case No. 03-1862 CE. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Nickel plating process PTI 673-88, Special Condition Pale green stains on the (SC) 18, and Rules 370 and 910 outside of the nickel scrubber were indicative of nickel oxide, and indicated past release(s) of collected air contaminants. On February 29, 2024, the AQD examined the scrubber for the nickel plating process and its ductwork, just outside the south exterior wall of the plant. The AQD staff observed pale, green stains on the side of the scrubber which appeared to have been from two access panels. The color of the dried material was consistent with that of nickel oxide.

This also constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Additionally, the AQD was informed on February 7, 2024, that the chrome redox process has undergone changes in the way it is operated since PTI 672-88 was issued. Specifically, bisulfite and acid were said to be added to the process, in place of one of the original raw materials, sulfur dioxide. PTI 672-88, SC 18 states: “Applicant shall not substitute any raw materials or process for those described in this permit application which would result in an appreciable change in the quality or any appreciable increase in the quantity of the emission of an air contaminant without prior notification to and approval by the Air Quality Division.” Please note that this has not been determined to be a violation at this time. Within 30 days, please provide a demonstration that the substitution of bisulfite and acid for sulfur dioxide in the redox process has not resulted in an appreciable change in the quality or any appreciable increase in the quantity of the emission of an air contaminant.

In the Violation Notice, AQD requested information to document on-site conditions during the period of time associated with an odor observation and on-site investigation conducted by AQD staff. A copy of that letter is enclosed for reference. On December 28, 2023, MSC submitted a response to the Violation Notice. In accordance with Consent Judgement 17-000727-CE, Paragraph 6.3, EGLE and MSC met on January 16, 2024, to discuss the Violation Notice. In the December 28, 2023 response letter, and during the January 16, 2024 meeting, MSC did not provide the cause, steps taken to prevent a reoccurrence, nor the dates by which corrective actions will take place. MSC disputed that a violation occurred; however, MSC identified that there were low water levels in the Outer Pond and Flume Ponds. MSC also stated that Outer Pond and Flume water was sent to the “Old Main Pond” (old Main Aeration Pond) from October 1 to October 3, 2023. MSC did not provide a date(s) for emptying the old Main Aeration Pond. Currently, the use of the old Main Aeration Pond is addressed in Consent Judgement 17-000727-CE, Appendix C.VIII.

Neither in the response to the Violation Notice nor during the meeting on January 16, 2024, did MSC submit documentation to support that MSC complied with these terms. The information provided and actions taken by MSC to date are insufficient to demonstrate that MSC has addressed the violations alleged in the Violation Notice and will manage waste streams sent to the old Main Aeration Pond to reduce or prevent nuisance odors. Please provide an operations and management plan that describes when or under what conditions waste streams will be diverted to the old Main Aeration Pond, and the actions that MSC will implement to reduce or prevent odors once a waste stream is diverted to this pond. The plan shall include methods used to quantify the volume and identify the character of the diverted waste stream, appropriate response measures taken to minimize the potential for nuisance odor generation while material is in the old Main Aeration Pond, controls to reduce generated nuisance odors from impacting properties outside the MSC property line, and associated recordkeeping for the plan actions performed. The plan shall also include protocols for reducing the duration of the use of the old Main Aeration Pond and methods for determining if an Anaerobic Digester malfunction has occurred and documenting the duration of the malfunction.

Box 30260, Lansing, Michigan 48909-7760. It was discovered during the inspection that Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. had installed unpermitted equipment at this facility. Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. stated that the EUPLANER had been replaced with a new piece of equipment as of 2021. The AQD staff advised Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. on March 12, 2024, that this could be a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The permit exemption identified by Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. does not apply to the replacement of process equipment and while a different exemption may apply, that requires additional documentation pursuant to Rule 278. Be advised, Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 requires that an air use permit to install (PTI) be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. However, certain processes and process equipment may be exempt from obtaining a PTI. Rule 278 establishes requirements of eligibility for exemptions listed in Rules 280 through 291. To be eligible for a listed exemption, the owner or operator of an exempt process or exempt process equipment must be able to provide information demonstrating the applicability of the exemption. Pursuant to Rule 278(a), this demonstration should be provided within 30 days of a written request by the AQD and should include the following information: • A description of the exempt process or process equipment, including the date of installation. • The specific exemption being used by the process or process equipment.Danielle Hercules Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. Page 3 March 12, 2024 • An analysis demonstrating that Rule 278 does not apply to the process or process equipment. The AQD requests that Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. demonstrate either the new equipment is exempt from the requirements of Rule 201 or submit a PTI application for the subject processes at the facility. The Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules can be accessed through the following website: www.michigan.gov/egle/about/organization/air-quality/laws-and-rules.

During the inspection AQD staff discovered that the wet venturi scrubber associated with the wood-fired boiler was replaced with a like-kind in 2023. Stack testing has not been performed on the new control equipment since its installation. In order to confirm compliance with the emissions limits of the PTI, the AQD is requesting that stack testing be performed on EUBOILER1. In accordance with Rule 1001 (R 336.2001) and General Condition 12 of General PTI No. 326-06D, the AQD is requesting that Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. conduct performance testing. The test protocol should be submitted 60 days prior to testing. The protocol shall include a proposed date for the testing, which is to be conducted no later than September 30, 2024. The test should determine the emission rate of PM, PM10, NOx, CO, Acetaldehyde, Acrolein, Arsenic, Benzene, and Formaldehyde. All testing must be conducted using United States Environmental Protection Agency approved test methods. Not less than 7 days before the performance test is conducted, the AQD must be notified in writing of the time and place of the performance tests and who shall conduct them. Results of the performance test shall be submitted to the department in the format prescribed by the applicable reference test method within 60 days after the last date of the test. The test plan should be submitted using the AQD’s Air Quality Test Plan Submittal Form (arcgis.com). If you have any questions about the requested performance test, please contact me at the number listed below.Danielle Hercules Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. Page 4 March 12, 2024 Finally, pursuant to Rule 911, the AQD requests that Northwest Hardwoods, Inc. submit a Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP) for the boiler and venturi scrubber, and all baghouses and associated process and collection systems at this facility. Please submit the information regarding the MAP and the Rule 278 exemption demonstration within 30 days of the date of this letter to me at the address above.

EUGAS-TREATING Rule 910 Intermittent, frequent opacity from flare indicates control device is not maintained or operated in a satisfactory manner. During the inspection on November 9, 2023, the AQD was shown an in-shed H2S monitor which was not operating. It is the AQD’s understanding that the other in-shed H2S monitors were not being operated. This is a violation of PTI 85-23, EUGAS- TREATING, SC IV.1.b, and MI-ROP-B5462-2021a, EUGAS-TREATING, SC IV.1.c which prohibit operation of the facility unless in-shed H2S monitors are installed and operational. The AQD was made aware that records of maintenance activities were not being kept. This is a violation of PTI 85-23, EUGAS-TREATING, SC VI.3, and MI-ROP-B5462- 2021a, EUGAS-TREATING, SC VI.4, which require that records be kept of the date, time, and findings of all maintenance activities and repairs, corrective procedures, operational changes, and other parameters for the flare associated with EUGAS- TREATING, as specified in the facility’s malfunction abatement plan, as well as those activities conducted according to the facility’s maintenance program. The AQD was also made aware that records of daily visible emission checks were not being kept, and no current staff were trained to recognize the 20% opacity threshold for corrective action. This is a violation of PTI 85-23, EUGAS-TREATING SC VI.4, and MI-ROP-B5462-2021a, EUGAS-TREATING, SC VI.5, which require that records of the non-certified visible emissions readings be kept. In order to be able to comply with the requirement to immediately initiate corrective action if opacity above 20% is witnessed, it is strongly recommended that the facility have someone onsite each day who can recognize 20% opacity.Jeff Adler Tuscola Energy Page 3 February 15, 2024 Additionally, a sign was not posted with emergency contact numbers for local and state police and ambulance service, as of the date of the inspection, in violation of PTI 85-23, EUGAS-TREATING SC IX.3 and MI-ROP-B5462-2021a, EU-GAS-TREATING, SC IX.3. It is the AQD’s understanding that a sign was subsequently installed, and this issue is therefore considered resolved. Furthermore, the AQD was informed that thus far during 2023, the company had not reviewed their emergency procedures plan with the local fire department. This violates PTI 85-23, EUGAS-TREATING SC IX.5 and MI-ROP-B5462-2021a, EU-GAS- TREATING, SC IX.5, which require that prior to June 1 of each year, the permittee review the emergency procedures plan with appropriate local emergency personnel such as sheriff department, fire department, police, etc. Lastly, the intermittent but frequent opacity from the flare appeared to indicate that the device was not being maintained or operated properly, in violation of MAPC Rule 910, which requires that an air cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.

The signed hard copy of the report was received on January 26, 2024.

Ladomer Marathon Petroleum Company LP Page 2 February 1, 2024 Sulfur Block 2, Area 72 (known as the North Plant Sulfur Recovery Unit, or North Plant SRU), removes hydrogen sulfide from acid gas and converts it to elemental sulfur. The exhaust tail gas from the process is routed to a thermal oxidizer. The special conditions applicable to the North Plant SRU are in the facility’s ROP, last revised on September 12, 2016, within the emission unit table EU72-SULRBLOCK2-S1. These conditions have since been amended by PTI No. 113-22, issued on September 1, 2022. The North Plant SRU is subject to the federal Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources (NSPS) requirements in 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart Ja (Standards of Performance for Petroleum Refineries for Which Construction, Reconstruction, or Modification Commenced After May 14, 2007). Applicable requirements from NSPS Subpart Ja have been incorporated into the special conditions within the facility’s ROP and, subsequently, into PTI No. 113-22. SC I.2 of EU72-SULRBLOCK2-S1 in both the facility’s ROP and in PTI No. 113-22 limits SO emissions within the thermal oxidizer exhaust to not more than 250 ppm by 2 volume, based on a 12-hour average at zero percent oxygen on a dry basis. The basis for this limit is presented in NSPS Ja at 40 CFR 60.102a(f)(1)(i). The SO concentration 2 is monitored using a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS), required by SC VI.1 of EU-SULRBLOCK2-S1 in both the ROP and PTI No. 113-22, pursuant to 40 CFR 60.106a(a)(1). Within the Rule 912 report Marathon provides that the SO concentration 2 exceeded the 250 parts per million volume (ppmv) emission limit for a duration of 35 hours between 9:00 PM on January 14, 2024, through 9:00 AM on January 16, 2024, with a maximum recorded 12-hour average SO concentration of 493 ppmv. This 2 exceedance represents 35 individual violations of 40 CFR 60.102a(f)(1)(i), and of SC I.2 of EU-SULRBLOCK2-S1 in both the ROP and PTI No. 113-22. The AQD notes that in the Rule 912 report, Marathon states that the exceedance lasted for a duration of 36 hours between 9:00 PM on January 14, 2024, through 9:00 AM on January 16, 2024. Upon inspection of the hourly CEMS data provided by Marathon, the hourly period beginning at 8:00 AM and ending at 9:00 AM on January 16, 2024, is included by Marathon within the duration of the exceedance. However, the CEMS data shows the 12-hour average SO concentration to be 236 ppmv for this time, which is 2 less than the 250 ppmv limit, bringing AQD’s count to 35 exceedances. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by February 23, 2024 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.Ian W.

A review of this notification and subsequent written report and supporting information was conducted. The purpose of this review was to determine Michigan Foam Products’ compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N3078-2021a.

On December 19, 2023, the AQD staff observed an initial stack test during which the RTO that controls a portion of the emissions from the batch-type resin pre-expander was malfunctioning. The unit was leaking water from both the inlet and outlet, as well as from bolts in the metal in the central area of the unit. Icicles had formed on the unit, and icy patches were present on the ground underneath due to cold ambient temperatures. These observations along with the stack test results detailed below indicate a violation of Rule 910.

The test report also found that the destruction efficiency of the unit was a three-run average of 24 percent, which is below the 98.0 percent required by the permit. These constitute a violation of the permit and Rule 910. The initial Rule 912 notification was received via email on January 26, 2024, and additions to the submittal were requested on January 29, 2024. Michigan Foam Products was also informed that the batch-type resin pre-expander is in non-compliance until a new stack test, with results indicating compliance with permit limits, is conducted.

Please note, the Auto Protocol (EPA-453/R-008-002) does not allow control credit to be taken when control device parameters are out of range and/or deviating. When a deviation from an operating parameter occurs, zero capture or control device efficiency is assumed, unless approval is granted to use an alternative value for the period in which the deviation occurs. For an example see paragraph 63.3161(p) of the NESHAP. Because these calculations are not based on stack test results in this operating scenario, the facility has not yet provided sufficient evidence that it is complying with the 5.73 pounds VOC per job emission limit. Additionally, the facility shall submit a Rule 912 deviation report and the required 10 day follow up report. Rule 915 outlines when discretion is used in instances of excess emissions resulting from a malfunction.

That condition, and Condition III.1. state diesel fuel shall only be used during startup of a turbine. In addition, Condition III. 3. states the permittee shall not exceed 10 minutes per hour for FGTURBINES when starting the turbine on diesel fuel. On October 17, AQD observed visible emissions of black smoke from Turbines 1 & 2 for a period greater than 10 minutes and learned this was due to the sudden switching of fuels from landfill gas to diesel during turbine operation. AQD was made aware of another event that occurred on October 18th (without our observation of visible emissions). In emails dated November 2, and November 10, AQD requested and received from AHE additional details regarding these events, along with their explanation and confirmation of the observed turbine process operation. Arbor Hills Energy’s email stated “The operators pointed out that shutdown conditions and abnormal operating conditions (such as the sudden and unexpected loss of the STS treated gas feed system) may occasionally require the operators to transition to supplemental fuel for brief periods to protect the turbine equipment until the root cause of the malfunction can be clarified and either the treated landfill gas feed restored or a unit shutdown can be properly initiated. This is what happened during testing. • On 10/17/23, the Sulfur Treatment System had an unexpected outage at 10:06, isolating AHE turbines from landfill gas. To avoid a complete shutdown, GT1 & GT2 auto switched to diesel and load was reduced, operating until 10:31 before being switched back to landfill gas. • On 10/18/23, during a shutdown, GT1 tripped offline due to a flame failure fault at 09:38. It was restarted at 09:57 on diesel fuel and was switched back to landfill gas at 10:03.” Based on AQD’s test date observations, discussions with facility representatives including AHE’s testing consultant, and additional information received from AHE, it is noted that AHE has commenced operation of an unpermitted turbine process operation at this facility. The AQD is advising AHE that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the revision of the PTI 68-23, FGTURBINES process equipment. AQD is aware a recent permit revision application has been submitted by AHE. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Lastly, in an email dated October 13, 2023, AQD’s Technical Program Unit sent AHE a protocol approval letter. AQD’s approval included the requirement to conduct the FGTURBINES NOx testing pursuant to 40 CFR Part 60, 60.335(b)(2) (Subpart GG), which specifies testing at multiple turbine loads generally between the base load and maximum load. AHE’s performance test results report was submitted to AQD on December 18, 2023; it demonstrates thatAnthony Falbo Opal Fuels January 18, 2024 Page 3 FGTURBINES NOx testing was conducted at each turbine’s maximum load only.

ROOS GOVERNOR DIRECTOR January 16, 2024 VIA EMAIL Matt Williams, Environmental Director County of Saint Clair 6779 Smiths Creek Road Smiths Creek, Michigan 48047 Dear Matt Williams: SUBJECT: Violation Notice; Smiths Creek Landfill; St. Clair County Fiscal Year 2024, First Quarter Part 115 Inspection Waste Data System Number: 452546 On December 1, 2023, the staff of the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Materials Management Division (MMD), conducted an inspection of the Smiths Creek Landfill (Facility) located at 6779 Smiths Creek Road, Kimball, Michigan. This inspection was performed to evaluate compliance of the Facility with Part 115, Solid Waste Management, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, MCL 324.11501 et seq., as amended, and the administrative rules promulgated thereunder (Part 115). Based on the above referenced inspection and subsequent document review pertaining to third and fourth quarter 2023 violations, MMD staff determined that the Facility remains in violation of provisions of the Part 115 Administrative Rules. Violations pertaining to the third quarter 2023 inspection that remain open are the following: 1. R 299.4448(2)(d) which states, “The owner and operator shall close each type II landfill unit in a manner that minimizes all of the following: (d) The post-closure formation and release of leachate and explosive gases to air, groundwater, or surface water to the extent necessary to protect human health and the environment.” On June 28, 2023, MMD staff observed landfill gas escaping the final cover of the certified closed area of the Facility in areas where there was no vegetation and standing liquid was present. The gas could be seen bubbling up from the final cover through the standing liquid at multiple locations. Environmental Information Logistics, L.L.C. (EIL) was contracted by the Facility to conduct a routine surface emission screening (SEM) event for the active, closed, and interim cover areas of the Facility on August 1 and 2, 2023. No detectable methane was identified in the certified closed area during this SEM event. Due to the lack of detectable methane during the SEM and review of the solar flare runtime data, it was suggested by the Facility that the gases escaping the certified closed area final cover indicate methane oxidation through the soil final cover and an increasing proportion of carbon dioxide in the landfill gas. 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Smiths Creek Landfill Page 2 January 16, 2024 On October 18, 2023, the Air Quality Division (AQD) conducted an abbreviated SEM inspection covering the Facility’s active, closed, and interim cover areas. Several locations within the certified closed area of the landfill had surface methane concentrations greater than 500 ppm above the background. The results of the AQD SEM event suggest that the portions of the certified closed area final cover may be inadequate, and/or the passive gas collection system may not be operating as designed. Additional evaluations are necessary to ensure that the final cover and passive venting system are operating effectively to prevent fugitive emissions of landfill gas. 2. R 299.4425(7) which states, “To prevent the ponding of water on completed fill surfaces, the grading contours shall be sufficient to prevent the development of local depressions due to postconstruction settlement.” Ponding liquid was observed at multiple locations throughout the certified closed area of the Facility. These topographic low areas throughout the certified closed area require attention to prevent erosion and water infiltration. An annual flyover was scheduled for August 2023 to create a topographic survey of the certified closed area final cap surface to prepare localized grading adjustments to improve water flow from the final cap. The data from the survey was scheduled to be prepared in August 2023, with localized re-grading occurring in September/October 2023. Documentation of the completion of re-grading activities must be submitted to MMD for review. 3. R 299.4425(9) which states, “All final covered areas shall be stabilized using appropriate shallow-rooted vegetation for the soil type, slope, and moisture conditions present. Seed and mulch rates shall, at a minimum, be consistent with recommendations contained in the United States department of agriculture document entitled “Natural Resources Conservation Service Critical Area Planting Guide.” The natural resources conservation service critical area planting guide is adopted by reference in R 299.4141.” Several areas without vegetation were observed throughout the certified closed area of the Facility. Re-vegetation was scheduled to occur in October 2023 after topographic low areas of the final cap were re-graded. These areas require seeding to establish vegetation that will minimize erosion of the final cover and water infiltration into the fill. Documentation of the completion of seeding activities must be submitted to MMD for review. 4. R 299.4448(2)(b) which states, “The owner and operator shall close each type II landfill unit in a manner that minimizes all of the following: (b) erosion.” Severe erosion of the final cover was observed in multiple areas of the certified closed area of the Facility. Inspection of these eroded areas resulted in exposed waste being observed. Re-grading of the gas collection and control system header also disturbed the final cap of the certified closed area. These areas of the clay cap need to be repaired, and certification documentation that the final cover meets the requirements of Part 115 needs to be provided.Smiths Creek Landfill Page 3 January 16, 2024 Please submit a comprehensive plan and schedule that addresses the above violations. The plan should address the topographic survey data, re-grading, final cap repairs and certification, seeding, and an SEM survey once correction actions have been completed. Violations pertaining to the fourth quarter 2023 inspection that remain open are the following: 1. R 299.4433(c) which states, “The gases generated by the facility do not create a nuisance and are not otherwise in violation of part 55 of the act at the property boundary.” The AQD and MMD continue to receive complaints from residents in the vicinity of the Facility. The complaints have ranged from smelling intermittent, objectionable odors to severely bad odors that impacted residents’ ability to enjoy their property. The staff of AQD and MMD have performed several odor inspections in the areas of the numerous complainants’ homes and have noted landfill gas odor of various intensities at different times of the day. It has been determined that the Facility’s gas collection and control system has deficiencies that need to be adequately addressed to prevent the release of excessive landfill gas odors that migrate into the adjacent residents’ community. 2. Section 11511(b)(5)(c)(iv) states that a Research, Development, and Demonstration Project (RDDP) must have “An active gas collection and control system. The system shall be of adequate size for the anticipated size for the anticipated methane production rates and to control odors. The system must be operational before the addition of any material to accelerate of enhance biostabilization of the solid waste.” The MMD has reviewed the gas collection and control system as-built information and has raised concerns that the main gas header, providing vacuum from the gas- to-energy plant and primary flair station, may be undersized for the current gas generation of the landfill. In addition, the current location of the main gas header within the waste mass subjects it to settlement forces which are detrimental to its effective, long-term operation. Currently, the temporary flare/blower is providing additional vacuum to Cell 8. The interceptor trench collector has been installed, but minimal vacuum has been applied to the collector due to high oxygen and balance gas concentrations. A plan that addresses additional clay cover or, more preferably, the use of a flexible membrane cover over the interceptor trench collector is required. The plan should include a timeline for when the interceptor trench collector is expected to be fully functional and an evaluation of the potential area of influence under varying vacuum conditions. The plan should also describe the nature and extent of (enhanced) interim cover intended to be placed in the area of the interceptor trench to maximize its short-term effectiveness. For examples, to what distance upslope from the toe of slope will interim cover be placed to prevent air intrusion to the interceptor trench in an effort to increase its potential influence; for soil interim cover, what soil types are being used, how are they being compacted, what is the target thickness; what efforts have been undertaken to evaluate/pursue the use of a flexible membrane liner for enhanced interim cover over the interceptor trench.Smiths Creek Landfill Page 4 January 16, 2024 The Facility has stated that a complete design and operational review is underway by EIL. This review is expected to focus on the sizing of the header lines, expected gas production rate, density and sizing of the lateral extraction lines, system and available vacuum, collection capacity, location of the future header system, and other design improvements that will be necessary to meet recent Part 115 requirements and rectify off-site odor nuisances. A comprehensive assessment of the lateral collector’s potential for settlement or liquid intrusion is also ongoing. A timeframe for completion of these evaluations and any proposed corrective measures resulting from these evaluations has not yet been provided. Please submit a response to this Violation Notice by February 6, 2024. The response should include a timeframe for the completion of the gas collection and control system design and operational review by EIL, a timeframe for the completion of the lateral collector comprehensive assessment, a plan that addresses the violations pertaining to the certified closed area, a plan for bringing the Cell 8 interceptor trench collector to full functionality, and an updated wellfield vacuum analysis.

The purpose of this semiannual compliance report was to report EDGB’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N5991-2016. On December 7, 2023, the AQD sent EDGB a Violation Notice (VN) citing violations noted in the 1st semiannual 2023 compliance report and requested your written response by December 29, 2023. A copy of that letter is enclosed for your reference. EDGB submitted a Response to Violation Notice on December 28, 2023, however, the AQD has determined that this response does not sufficiently address the requested additional information and requires further follow up. The first additional piece of information requested in the December 7, 2023, VN was an explanation of how the duration of venting events was determined. The EDGB December 29, 2023, response noted: “The duration of the venting events was determined through discussion with site personnel which noted that each event lasted between two (2) and three (3) minutes. This allowed for purging of the small volume of high oxygen gas present within the system. For emission calculations, EDGB conservatively utilized five (5) minutes for the event durations.” However, in the 1st semiannual 2023 compliance report Table 1 Treatment System downtime, the following durations were noted for the dates of the events: CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

As required by MI-ROP-N5991-2016 EUTREATMENTSYS SC VII.4.b and c., this explanation should include a description and duration of all periods when the gas stream is diverted from the treatment system through a bypass line or the indication of bypass flow and a description and duration of all periods when the treatment system was not operating for a period exceeding 1 hour and length of time the control device was not operating. Also, the VN response indicated that the site modification to ensure that treated LFG is controlled in the future was the installation of a solar flare. The VN response noted that an air permit applicability determination was performed for the solar flare. Please submit a copy of a Rule 278a permit to install exemption demonstration for the solar flare. EDGB should also make sure that the solar flare complies with the federal requirements of 40 CFR Part 62 Subpart OOO – Federal Plan Requirements for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills that Commenced Construction On or Before July 17, 2014, and Have Not Been Modified or Reconstructed Since July 17, 2014, and 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart AAAA – NESHAP for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills.

Table 2: Violation for Blue Water Renewable Energy Plant (Section 2 of ROP No. MI-ROP-N6207-2018) Rule/Permit Condition Violated Comments 40 CFR 63.1959(b)(2)(iii) Collected landfill gas sent to a control system that does not comply with the federal standard. Landfill gas condensate 40 CFR 63.1959(b)(2)(iii)(D) is being vented to atmosphere which is creating foul odors. Reference 1: On October 10 and 18, 2023, EGLE staff detected intense landfill gas sulfur odor continuously at various locations, downwind of SCL of sufficient intensity and duration to be considered a violation of Rule 901. The Rule 901 violation is further corroborated by elevated methane and hydrogen sulfide (H S) surface 2 concentrations. Methane readings of 500 ppm or more above background at any location is considered an exceedance per 40 CFR 63.1958 or 40 CFR 63.1960. Please refer to the SEM inspection letter dated October 31, 2023 (SEM letter). Reference 2: On October 18, 2023, methane exceedances were identified during the SEMs inspection along with measurable hydrogen sulfide emissions. SCL failed to detect these leaks via monitoring required under 40 CFR Part 63.1958(d). SCL also excluded Cell 8 from SEM inspections despite a GCCS in place and being a location identified as the main source of odors. This exclusion violates AQD Rule 910 which requires air pollution control equipment is installed and operating properly. According to data provided, Cell 8 is considered an active system with approximately 600 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) of flow. Emissions generated from that system are required to be captured and controlled. The GCCS, comprised of various collectors and vacuum lines, is the method of conveyance of emissions to the control device(s). SEM inspections are the appropriate way toMatthew Williams Douglas Ayers Page 4 December 19, 2023 demonstrate the capture and control equipment are operating properly. Wellhead data and system vacuum data, referenced in the SEM letter, provides additional evidence of a compromised control system. This is indicative of air pollution control equipment not operating in a satisfactory manner in accordance with Rule 910. Reference 3: Wellhead data reviewed and referenced in the SEM letter, identifies multiple collection wells as being vapor locked, flooded, or otherwise impaired (i.e., wells that are low flow, high percent methane, have similar applied/available vacuum). 40 CFR 63.1962(b)(2) requires that vertical wells be constructed in such a manner as to address the occurrence of water within the landfill. SCL failed to propose how these wells will be investigated and remediated. Finally, the SEM letter identified surface emissions problems in the final cover portion of the landfill. This was a repeat finding from a prior Materials Management Division (MMD) inspection conducted on June 28, 2023. Additionally, LandGEM gas generation curves submitted during the ROP renewal show gas generation rates at 9,178 actual cubic feet per minute (acfm) in 2023. According to an equipment inventory review, the collective control capacity is not adequate to handle the maximum gas generation. The inadequacy of the collective control capacity has necessitated further actions by SCL to address the issue, like installation of a rental flare and header for gas interceptor. Based on SCL’s inadequate VN responses, we require implementation of a more quality assured/effective SEM program. An effective SEM program and compliance plan is designed to address the violations identified and includes documented corrective actions and their outcomes. An appropriate compliance plan is required to resolve these violations. Elements of an effective SEM program include, but are not limited to, the following: a) Survey of all areas of the landfill inside the limits of the waste disposal boundary in accordance with 40 CFR 63.1958(d)(1). b) Problem areas identified during the monthly cover integrity inspections required under 40 CFR 63.1960(c)(5) should be surveyed during SEM inspections and the results documented. c) Ensure SEMs are conducted where visual observations indicate elevated concentrations of landfill gas, such as distressed vegetation and cracks or seeps in the cover are observed in accordance with 40 CFR 63.1958(d)(1). d) Document all SEM hits via photography and location after it has been addressed. It should be clear in the documentation how each SEM exceedance was resolved.Matthew Williams Douglas Ayers Page 5 December 19, 2023 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by January 9, 2024 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The purpose of this semiannual compliance report was to report EDGB’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N5991-2016. During the review of the semiannual compliance report, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Landfill Gas (LFG) ROP No. MI-ROP-N5991-2016 In the semiannual Treatment System Section 2. EUTREATMENTSYS, compliance report, the (EUTREATMENTSYS) Special Condition (SC) III.2 - facility noted six (6) occurrences where the 40 CFR 60.752(b)(2)(iii)(C); 40 CFR facility vented treated 63.1955(a)* landfill gas (LFG) to the ambient air. 40 CFR 62.16714(c)(3); 40 CFR 63.1959(b)(2)(iii)(C) *The stationary source was subject to the Standards of Performance for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills promulgated in 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW. On June 21, 2021, the facility became subject to the Federal Plan Requirements for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills That Commenced Construction on or Before July 17, 2014, and Have Not Been Modified or Reconstructed Since July 17, 2014, as specified in 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart OOO.

The release of the treated LFG was not controlled in accordance with the ROP, or the applicable federal regulatory requirements noted in the table above, which specify that “venting of treated LFG to the ambient air is not allowed”. The current ROP references underlying applicable requirements (UARs) for 40 CFR 60.762(b)(2)(iii)(C) and 40 CFR 63.1955(a), however, these requirements have been superseded since the issuance of the ROP by 40 CFR 62.16714(c)(3) and 40 CFR 63.1959(b)(2)(iii)(C); therefore, both are noted in the table above. The semiannual compliance report noted that it was conservatively estimated that each event lasted no more than five (5) minutes each and occurred on January 30, 2023, February 20, 2023, April 5 and 13, 2023 and June 15 and 20, 2023. The semiannual compliance report noted that corrective measures included EDGB contracting a consultant to evaluate the facility and design a modification for the LFG treatment system to ensure treated LFG that cannot be routed for subsequent sale or beneficial use is routed to a control device which complies with either 40 CFR 60.752 (b)(3)(iii)(A) or (B), which have been superseded by the requirements of 40 CFR 62.16714(c)(1) or (2) and 40 CFR 63.1959(b)(2)(iii)(A) or (B). Please submit a written response to this Violation Notice by December 29, 2023, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: an explanation of how the duration of the venting events was determined, an estimation of the amount of treated landfill gas emissions; a description of the modifications made to the LFG gas treatment system to ensure that treated LFG that cannot be routed for subsequent sale or beneficial reuse is routed to an appropriate control device.

During that inspection, the AQD observed large, oil-filled, and grease-covered equipment, including rubber hoses, that were in the process of being torched. As a result, the AQD requested a Malfunction Abatement Plan pursuant to Rule 911, which was submitted timely on October 11, 2023.

Page 2 November 30, 2023 On September 27, 2023, the AQD received a complaint regarding smoke and flames observed at the facility that also included imagery of the onsite activities. Following an inquiry to facility staff, it was confirmed that a load of incoming scrap had caught on fire which was put out promptly. On October 23 and again on October 25, 2023, additional complaints of smoke and fire at the facility were received that included imagery of the onsite activities. Following an email inquiry to facility staff, it was stated that they did not have a fire, but that the smoke and flames in the images were from portable torch cutting at the facility. The images taken on those two days show extreme smoke and flames from the portable torch cutting equipment, and as such the activity occurring at that time is considered open burning. Open burning is prohibited, and as such, this is a violation of Rule 310. The definition found in Rule 336.1115(b) of the Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules states that, “Open burning” means a fire from which the products of combustion are emitted directly into the outer air without passing through a stack or chimney. Padnos is advised to immediately discontinue any torch cutting activities that result in open burning. Additionally, the Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP) submitted on October 11, 2023, states that, “In the event that the material being torched has opacity greater than acceptable amount the torchers will then stop torching and will escalate to find a better means of processing the material.” Based on the imagery, which shows an unacceptable amount of opacity without the activity being ceased, and Padnos’ explanation of the origins of the smoke and fire observed, the AQD has identified that the provisions of the MAP have not been followed at the facility. This is a violation of Rule 911. Finally, in June of 2021, at the request of the AQD, Padnos submitted a Rule 278 demonstration for the portable torch cutting emission unit at the facility indicating that it had not been reconstructed. Due to the time elapsed since that submittal, the AQD is requesting an updated Rule 278 demonstration. The demonstration must include a record of all costs incurred by both Padnos and Canyon Commercial Torching for the portable torching emission unit incurred since December 20, 2016. The submittal must contain an itemized list, including receipts, for all maintenance and repairs, equipment, and all parts replaced and/or purchased for the emission unit.

The inspection was performed to evaluate compliance of the Facility with Part 115, Solid Waste Management, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act (NREPA), 1994 PA 451, MCL 324.11501 et seq., as amended, and the administrative rules promulgated thereunder (Part 115). The odor survey was performed in response to several odor complaints from residents in the vicinity of the Facility. Based on the inspection, MMD staff determined that the Facility is in violation of the following provisions of the Part 115 Administrative Rules: 1. R 299.4433(c) which states, “That gases generated by the facility do not create a nuisance and are not otherwise in violation of part 55 of the act at the property boundary.” Since September 5, 2023, the Air Quality Division (AQD) and MMD have received, over 47 odor complaints from residents in the vicinity of the Facility. The complaints ranged from smelling intermittent, bad odors to severely bad odors that impacted residents’ ability to enjoy their property. Staff of AQD and MMD have performed several odor inspections in the areas of the numerous complainants’ homes and have noted landfill odors of various intensities at different times of the day. The odor survey was performed in the neighborhoods adjacent to the landfill. Some odors were noted, but at the time, they did not seem to be as intense as the odors that the complainants described; however, a fairly unpleasant odor was noted in a ravine behind one resident’s home. This odor constituted a nuisance under the Part 115 administrative rules. In subsequent discussions and emails with you, AQD, and MMD, since the inspection, it has been determined that the Facility’s gas extraction system has numerous deficiencies that need to be adequately addressed in order to prevent the release of excessive gas odors that migrate into the adjacent residents’ community. 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Smiths Creek Landfill Page 2 November 14, 2023 One of the primary concerns is that the gas extraction system does not have adequate capacity to manage all of the gas being generated by Cell 8 and possibly other portions of the landfill, and as a consequence, the excess gas is migrating off site and resulting in numerous odor complaints. This problem is exacerbated by the design of the gas collection lines that are mostly horizontal and it appears that some have settled and filled with liquids, thereby further preventing the extraction of gas. The AQD staff sent a violation notice to you on October 25, 2023, for violating Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of NREPA, as documented during inspections on October 10 and 18, 2023. The violations of Part 55 also constitute a violation of the Part 115 administrative rules. 2. Section 11511(b)(5)(c)(iv) states that a Research, Development, and Demonstration Project (RDDP) must have “An active gas collection and control system. The system shall be of adequate size for the anticipated methane production rates and to control odors. The system must be operational before the addition of any material to accelerate or enhance biostabilization of the solid waste.” In the RDDP Smiths Creek Landfill Septage Bioreactor 2022 Annual Report, in Section 2.2 Gas Extraction System, it indicates that “two gas extraction lines on lift 2 and one on lift 4 were connected to the gas extraction manifold and operated as part of the active gas extraction system” and that “the remaining installed gas extraction lines on Lift 4 of Cell 8 have not yet been connected or operated as part of the active extraction system.” The report indicates that 156,414 gallons of septage sludge had been placed in Cell 8 in 2022. It is not clear as to when the gas extraction system became fully operational. Please indicate if or when the remaining lines were connected and operated as part of the gas extraction system as well as how many lines were connected. If the lines are not connected, it is imperative that the lines be connected as soon as possible. The MMD has reviewed the gas collection system as-built information and has raised concerns that the main gas header, providing vacuum from the gas-to-energy plant and primary flare station, is undersized for the current gas generation of the landfill and that the header is being subject, unnecessarily, to settlement/liquids accumulation by being installed within the solid waste boundary. Based on multiple verified off-site nuisance odors from landfill gas, it is apparent that the effective capacity of the gas collection and control system in the RDDP subject portions of the landfill is not currently adequate. In addition, there are multiple landfill cells that currently rely primarily on horizontal gas collectors to maintain gas control. What criteria is utilized by the Facility to determine when gas collection infrastructure is transitioned from horizontal to vertical gas collectors? Section 11511(b)(9) states ”If the department determines that the overall goals of an RDDP, including, but not limited to, protection of the environment, natural resources, and the public health, safety, and welfare, are not being achieved, the department may order immediate termination of all or part of the operations of the RDDP or may order other corrective measures.”Smiths Creek Landfill Page 3 November 14, 2023 It has been discussed that the RDDP injection of septage may be the reason for the recent odor complaints. Monitoring reports from AQD indicate that elevated concentrations of hydrogen sulfide, potentially resulting from the anaerobic breakdown of septage sludge in the landfill, have been detected atop the surface of the landfill. Based on the bulk of the complainants’ subsequent comments after the odor survey, the odors seem to be consistent with the rotten egg odor of hydrogen sulfide. You indicated that septage liquids have not been injected into Cell 8, but that septage sludges had been placed in the cell. You also indicated that injection of septage liquids into the landfill has temporarily ceased while the odor control problems are being addressed via the installation of temporary flares and an aboveground lateral gas line. It should be noted that additional remedies and actions have been taken, since the September inspection, that have been described in your weekly update reports and other emails. While it is important to stop all injections of septage liquids and sludges into the landfill cells; be aware that if the odor problems are not resolved soon, the approvals for the operation of the RDDP may be rescinded. Please submit a response to this letter by November 30, 2023, with information regarding the Facility’s actions taken and planned to address the above items. A copy of the MMD inspection report, has been enclosed with this letter for your reference. This Violation Notice does not preclude nor limit EGLE’s ability to initiate any other enforcement action under state or federal law as deemed appropriate.

Monitoring, Engineering and Operational Plans REMARKS: C-- In response to several recent odor complaints in the community near Smiths Creek Landfill, we did an odor survey, driving around sniffing for unpleasant odors in the Yager Street area. The worst odor we smelled was in a ravine behind a resident's house. He happened to be in his driveway when we stopped by and asked to go on his property. After the survey, we went to SCLF for an inspection. Matt Williams said the odor problems were due to excessive landfill gas generation. The bulk of the odor complaints were from residents living on Richmond, Smiths Creek, and Yager Roads. They had also got one from a resident east of the landfill. Matt said the odor problems were due to excess landfill gas generation. The landfill currently is incapable of collecting all of the gas at the site in violation of Rule 433(c). Matt said lateral gas lines had been installed and he was bringing in a second blower and temporary flare. He gave us an 11"" x 17"" copy of the ""Site Gas System Plan"" and the ""Cell 8 Gas Extraction System "" plan. While we were in Matt's office, Greg Morrow called to relay an odor complaint that had just came in; subsequently, we did another odor survey in the areas southwest of the landfill and returned to complete the inspection of the landfill. O, R--There were interim cover areas on the westside of the landfill that need to have rill erosion repaired and the areas re-vegetated. The daily cover was sparse in the area around the large motorboat that was perched in the active fill area.

This inspection was performed to evaluate compliance of the Facility with Part 115, Solid Waste Management, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, MCL 324.11501 et seq., as amended, and the administrative rules promulgated thereunder (Part 115). Based on the above referenced inspection, MMD staff determined that the Facility is in violation of the following provision of the Part 115 Administrative Rules: 1. R 299.4433(1)(c) which states, “The owner and operator of a type II landfill shall ensure all of the following: (c) That gases generated by the facility do not create a nuisance and are not otherwise in violation of part 55 of the act at the property boundary.” Upon arrival at the Facility, four off-site survey locations were selected based on the wind direction. At the time of the inspection, there was a westerly wind blowing at approximately 5 mph. A constant landfill gas odor strong enough to cause a person to attempt to avoid it completely was experienced on the property of the Holy Trinity Monastery (Location 2). Residents of the monastery were interviewed and stated that the intensity and consistency of the odor were a regular occurrence and had been experienced since mid-summer 2023. It was also noted during the inspection that intermittent landfill gas odor was detectable approximately one mile east of the Facility at Location 4 on Pine River Road. Please submit a response to this Violation Notice by November 22, 2023. Although MMD staff have been made aware of completed and ongoing corrective actions regarding off-site odors and surface emissions generated by the Facility through meetings and correspondence, the response should include all actions that have been and will continue to be implemented to achieve compliance along with estimated timeframes for completion. 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Smiths Creek Landfill Page 2 October 25, 2023 The MMD staff will evaluate your response, determine the Facility’s compliance status, and notify you of any deficiencies in the response.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine SCL's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and to investigate numerous complaints which AQD received regarding foul landfill gas odors attributed to SCL’s landfill operations. During the October 10 and 18, 2023, inspection, AQD staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Smiths Creek Landfill Michigan Admin. Code AQD staff verified landfill gas Rule 336.1901 (including hydrogen sulfide H2S, organic sulfur bearing compounds R-SH) odors β β On October 10,2023, on Smiths Creek Road, AQD staff detected (distinct and definite) landfill gas sulfur odor continuously (uninterrupted) and, also, on October 18, 2023, AQD detected at various locations, downwind of SCL, distinct and definite objectionable same type of odor. The Rule 901 violation is further corroborated by high methane concentrations (up to 45,752 ppm at M-13 (42.9045235 and -82.595547), significantly higher than 500 ppm). AQD used two (2) SEM5000 methane detector devices equipped with tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy and has GPS location accuracy of 2 to 4 meters. On both days ambient temperature was in 50s °F with 10-13 mph S. The background methane was about 3 ppm. Please refer to the surface emission monitoring (SEM) inspection letter from Mike Kovalchick of EGLE-AQD. SCL has proposed to install a portable landfill gas flare. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. It is an SCL’s responsibility to determine if the proposed portable landfill gas flare is subject to Rule 336.1201 due to significant sulfur dioxide (SO ) emissions. 2 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Matthew Williams Smiths Creek Landfill Page 2 October 25, 2023 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by November 15, 2023 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Five Mile Road Northville, Michigan 48168 Dear Dave: SUBJECT: Violation Notice and Reply to Violation Notice Response, Arbor Hills Landfill, License Number 9709, Waste Data Systems Number 475946 The Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Materials Management Division (MMD), staff received approximately 30 odor complaints on the evening of November 1, 2023, and conducted an odor inspection between 7:30pm and 9:30pm on November 1, 2023. These inspections were completed at most of the complaint locations, and around the Arbor Hills Landfill (Landfill) located at 10599 W. Five Mile Road, Salem Township, Washtenaw County, Michigan, to determine compliance with Part 115, Solid Waste Management, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Part 115), and the administrative rules promulgated pursuant to Part 115 (Rules). R299.4433(1)(c) of the Rules requires the owner and operator of a type II landfill to ensure “That gases generated by the facility do not create a nuisance and are not otherwise in violation of part 55 of the act at the property boundary.” During the odor inspection on November 1, 2023, MMD staff identified nuisance landfill gas odors along Napier Road near the landfill entrance. MMD staff also conducted an odor inspection on the morning of November 2, 2023, between 6:40am and 7:40am to evaluate the effectiveness of the odor mitigating fans. During this odor inspection, staff documented nuisance garbage/landfill gas odors on 6-Mile Road between Napier Road and the entrance to the compost operation, downwind from the active filling area. Pursuant to paragraph 5.17(B) of Consent Judgement No. 2020-0593-CE dated March 7, 2023 (CJ), EGLE is notifying the Landfill of the November 1 and 2, 2023, odor violation. This Notice triggers a requirement for the Landfill, pursuant to paragraph 5.17(C) of the CJ, to immediately commence an investigation into the cause of this violation. Within 72 hours of receipt of this Notice, the Landfill shall submit a report to EGLE documenting the findings of its investigation and any evidence collected. If this investigation identifies site condition(s) that caused the violation, the Landfill shall also include a remediation plan to address those site condition(s), including process or 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-780-7690Dave Seegert November 3, 2023 Page 2 procedure changes and capital expenditures, and the time frame necessary to implement these remedial actions. On October 28, 2023, MMD staff received a Response to the October 25, 2023, Violation Notice (Response) from the Landfill. The Response indicated the cause of the odors was removal of daily cover in the morning in preparation for placement of additional waste and stated, “Arbor Hills will use odor mitigating fans prior to and during the removal of daily cover materials.” The presence of strong garbage/landfill gas odors downwind from the active filling area on the morning of November 2, 2023, indicate the use of odor mitigating fans prior to and during daily cover removal is inadequate to prevent odors and additional remedial actions are necessary. In addition, and pursuant to paragraph 5.17(F) of the Consent Judgement, EGLE has reviewed the Response, and is now providing the Landfill with the comments on the adequacy of the remedial actions. EGLE is also notifying the Landfill that additional remedial actions are necessary to correct the Violation Notice dated October 25, 2023, and to address ongoing nuisance odors as documented in this Violation Notice. These comments trigger a requirement for the Landfill to provide a written response addressing the comments within 10 days of receipt. This Violation Notice does not preclude nor limit the EGLE’s ability to initiate enforcement action, under state or federal law, as deemed appropriate. The EGLE appreciates your attention to this violation.

The purpose of this review was to determine Cutting Edge Abrasives’ compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 101-23. During the review, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Curing oven Rule 201 Failure to obtain a Permit to Install. It was noted that Cutting Edge Abrasives had installed and commenced operation of unpermitted equipment at this facility. Specifically, during the recent permitting process, Cutting Edge Abrasives informed the AQD that they were installing a cure oven as part of the project. Cutting Edge Abrasives stated in an email to the permit engineer that the curing oven would be internally vented. The AQD has learned that instead of being internally vented, a stack was installed on the oven to exhaust heat and emissions generated during product curing. Since the emissions from the curing oven stack were not evaluated during the permitting process, this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The AQD staff advised Cutting Edge Abrasives on November 14, 2023, of this violation. A program for compliance includes a completed PTI application for the the curing oven and associated stack emissions.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine HMI Hardwoods’ compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and Permit to Install (PTI) 460-85.

A previous Violation Notice issued August 1, 2018, detailed the above violations for CO readings and sawdust accumulation around the collection system. Opacity was not previously monitored before the 2018 Violation Notice was issued. This resulted in a stack test performed in 2019, which showed compliance with CO and opacity readings. This indicates that the emissions monitor and CO monitoring equipment are not reading correctly and require calibration and/or maintenance: Furthermore; HMI Hardwoods is in violation of the U.S. EPA federally administered BOILER MACT regulatory program (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJJJ – 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-780-7690Kyle Vogel HMI Hardwoods, LLC November 14, 2023 Page 2 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers Area Sources (Large Biomass category).

Because the boiler is no longer being operated, the response for the cited CO, opacity, and MACT violations can be a commitment to perform actions necessary to correct them before beginning operations again.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Allied Motion's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 552-81C. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Batch vapor degreaser PTI 552-81C, Special Not all provisions of 40 using trichloroethylene Condition (SC) 1.4 CFR Part 63, Subpart T (TCE) were being met as required by the PTI. Batch vapor degreaser 40 CFR Part 63, Section Wind speed was not being using TCE 63.466(d) measured to determine and record reduced room draft for the degreaser. Batch vapor degreaser 40 CFR Part 63, Section Not ensuring that the flow using TCE 63.463(e)(2)(ii)(A). of air across the top of the freeboard area, or within the degreaser was below the wind speed limit of Subpart T. Batch vapor degreaser Section 63.466(a)(1). The last date that the using TCE freeboard refrigeration device temperature was recorded was March 2, 2023. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T. PTI 552- 81C, EUDEGREASER, Special Condition 1.4 requires that the permittee shall comply with all provisions of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants as specified in 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts A and T, as they apply to the degreaser. As identified during the inspection on August 23, 2023, not all provisions of Subpart T were met. Please see below for further details. Indoor wind speed was not regularly measured by Allied Motion to determine and record reduced room draft for degreaser, in violation of Section 63.466(d) of Subpart T. Because Allied Motion was not recording indoor wind speed measurements, they were not ensuring that the flow or movement of air across the top of the freeboard area of the solvent cleaning machine, or within the solvent cleaning machine enclosure does not exceed 15.2 meters per minute (50 feet per minute) at any time as measured using the procedures in Subpart T, Section 63.466(d), this violated Section 63.463(e)(2)(ii)(A). From recordkeeping posted by the degreaser, the last date that the degreaser freeboard temperature was recorded appeared to be March 2, 2023, despite being operated as recently as July 2023, in violation of Section 63.466(a)(1) of Subpart T, which requires weekly recordkeeping. Additionally, it was not confirmed, but it was believed that the degreaser does not have a vapor level control device that shuts off sump heat if the vapor level in the vapor cleaning machine rises above the height of the primary condenser. This is required by Section 63.463(a)(5) of Subpart T. Please verify if there is the required vapor level control device and include that and any corrective actions in your response to this letter. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by November 1, 2023, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

MSU was therefore, unable from October 24, 2022, through early February 2023, to demonstrate compliance with the PTI 139-18, EUSTMBOILER I.1 nitrogen oxide (NOx) limit of 0.04 lb/mmBtu, over a 30-day rolling average time period, when firing natural gas. This also violates PTI 139-18, EUSTMBOILER SC IV.4, which requires the permittee to install, calibrate, maintain, and operate, in a satisfactory manner, devices to continuously record the nitrogen dioxide (NOx) emissions, and oxygen (O2) (or carbon dioxide (CO2)) content of the exhaust gas from EUSTMBOILER, and which requires the permittee to install and operate the CEMS or alternative monitoring system (AMS) to meet the timelines, requirements, and reporting detailed in Appendix A. The absence of a CEMS until early February 2023, also violates PTI 139-18, EUSTMBOILER SC VI.2, which requires the permittee, in part, to continuously monitor and record, in a manner acceptable to the AQD District Supervisor, the NOx emissions and the O2 (or CO2) content from the exhaust gas from EUSTMBOILER. It also requires the permittee, in part, to operate the NOx CEMS or AMS to meet the timelines, requirements, and reporting detailed in Appendix A. Additionally, MSU was said to not have been tracking downtime for the temporarily installed CEMS and did not submit downtime reports. This violates PTI 139-18, EUSTMBOILER SC VII.3, which requires the permittee to submit all reports required by the federal Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources, 40 CFR 60.49b, including performance test data from initial performance tests, performance evaluations of the CEMS, NOx emission reports, and excess emission reports. The permittee shall submit these reports to the AQD District Supervisor within the time frames specified in 40 CFR 60.49b and/or 40 CFR 60.7.

ROOS GOVERNOR DIRECTOR November 2, 2023 Mike Lloyd EPSI 1125 Morren Court Wayland, Michigan 49348 SRN: P0893, Allegan County Dear Mike Lloyd: VIOLATION NOTICE Under the State of Michigan’s Air Pollution Control law and the federal Clean Air Act, a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) program has been developed and implemented in Michigan. This program requires major sources of air emissions to obtain a facility-wide air use permit. This permit serves as a mechanism for consolidating and clarifying all air pollution control requirements which apply to the source. Rule 210(4) of the administrative rules promulgated under Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended, requires major sources to submit an application to the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD) not more than 12 months after a stationary source commences operation as a major source, as defined by Rule 211(1)(a). Based on the commencement of operation of EPSI located at 1125 Morren Court, Wayland, Michigan an application for a ROP should have been submitted to the AQD by October 26, 2023. To date, the AQD has not received this application. This constitutes a violation of Rule 210(1) which requires that a source not operate any emission units at a source required to obtain a ROP unless a timely and administratively complete application has been received by EGLE. Because of the failure to submit a timely and administratively complete application in accordance with the requirements of Rule 210(4), this facility has failed to obtain an “application shield.” Please submit a complete application within 60 days from the date of this letter.

Venting to the TO with high methane-content gas causes it to overheat. Instead, the gas is vented to the flare, which is not allowed by the permit. Additionally, as previously documented by Brightmark Meadow Rock RNG, LLC, upon startup, the H2S concentration in the biogas was too high for the monitoring device which resulted in a loss of H2S concentration records from January 2023 through April 2023. The loss of H2S data also resulted in the inability to calculate SO2 emissions for January 2023 through April 2023.

Violations related to the 95% destruction efficiency of the coating mix preparation room carbon absorption system were self-reported, however, additional violations were identified by the AQD. Worthen Coated Fabrics failed to identify that differential pressure readings of the Permanent Total Enclosure were greater than 0.007 inches H O on numerous occasions. This is a violation 2 of the permit, the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of Fabrics and Other Textiles, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart OOOO, the New Source Performance Standards for Polymeric Coating of Supporting Substrates Facilities, 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart VVV and Consent Order AQD No. 2022-15. In the first half 2023 ROP semi-annual deviation report, Worthen Coated Fabrics stated that the carbon adsorption system fan was not operating continuously, which caused the control efficiency to be less than 95%. The corrective action included running the fan continuously, yet the carbon absorption system problem occurred for six consecutive months and continued to occur up to and including the date of the compliance inspection which was conducted on August 2, 2023. The corrective action listed on the ROP semi-annual monitoring and deviation report for January 1 - June 30, 2023, is not acceptable. Additionally, the semi-annual deviation report did not include the deviations that occurred for the period of January 1 – March 31, 2023. The report should be amended and resubmitted.

These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T. PTI 552- 81C, EUDEGREASER, Special Condition 1.4 requires that the permittee shall comply with all provisions of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants as specified in 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts A and T, as they apply to the degreaser. As identified during the inspection on August 23, 2023, not all provisions of Subpart T were met. Please see below for further details. Indoor wind speed was not regularly measured by Allied Motion to determine and record reduced room draft for degreaser, in violation of Section 63.466(d) of Subpart T. Because Allied Motion was not recording indoor wind speed measurements, they were not ensuring that the flow or movement of air across the top of the freeboard area of the solvent cleaning machine, or within the solvent cleaning machine enclosure does not exceed 15.2 meters per minute (50 feet per minute) at any time as measured using the procedures in Subpart T, Section 63.466(d), this violated Section 63.463(e)(2)(ii)(A). From recordkeeping posted by the degreaser, the last date that the degreaser freeboard temperature was recorded appeared to be March 2, 2023, despite being operated as recently as July 2023, in violation of Section 63.466(a)(1) of Subpart T, which requires weekly recordkeeping. Additionally, it was not confirmed, but it was believed that the degreaser does not have a vapor level control device that shuts off sump heat if the vapor level in the vapor cleaning machine rises above the height of the primary condenser. This is required by Section 63.463(a)(5) of Subpart T. Please verify if there is the required vapor level control device and include that and any corrective actions in your response to this letter. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by November 1, 2023, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Keith Walker II: VIOLATION NOTICE On August 31, 2023, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an investigation in response to complaints of fallout in Melvindale and Detroit. Fallout allegedly occurred overnight from August 30 to August 31, 2023. The scope of the investigation included the operations at Edw. C. Levy Plant 6 (Levy Plant 6) located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigation was to determine Levy Plant 6 compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the administrative rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP-B4243-2016. The investigation was performed by Jonathan Lamb, EGLE-AQD. During the investigation, Jonathan Lamb observed fallout on multiple complainants’ properties and samples of the fallout were collected and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Lab results were received on September 25, 2023, and indicate the composition of the fallout samples is consistent with materials associated with slag processing at Levy Plant 6. As a result, the following violation was observed: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Steel slag handling General Condition 12(b) Detection of fallout beyond the and processing of ROP No. MI-ROP- facility's property line, attributable to operations B4243-2016 the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable R 336.1901(b) interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.

However, dense gray and brown smoke was exiting the west side of the enclosure at 80 percent opacity. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

Brown and gray smoke was seen to be exiting the south rebuilt SPARCS device at an opacity of 35%. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. The torch cutting process ceased operating before the AQD could conduct visible emissions readings. However, the heavy smoke which the AQD witnessed would not be expected to comply with Rule 301 of the administrative rules, which limits opacity to a 6-minute average of 20% opacity, except for one 6-minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity. Additionally, the cited is also enforceable of United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Consent Order 5-15-113(a)-MI-02, paragraph 22 of Appendix A. Paragraph 22 states, “By the effective date of this Order, RJ shall comply with the best management practices for torch-cutting operations, as described in Appendix A, at its Battle Creek and Flint facilities.” The opacity, which was observed on August 30, 2023, does not represent best management practices.

Additionally, during the inspection on August 22, 2023, a significant quantity of materials generated by the shredding operation was airborne. This was noted while in the shredder operator tower, and while walking around in the area of the shredder and associated ferrous and non-ferrous separation systems. This is a violation of Rule 370 for failure to properly collect and dispose of air contaminants.

This is a violation of Rule 201, for the installation of an emission unit without obtaining a Permit to Install. The Shredder Incoming Inspection plan utilized to demonstrate compliance with FG- SHREDDEROP, Special Condition III.9, was requested during the inspection records review. The plan that was received is dated September 20, 2007, and appears to be a copy of the plan from the AQD files. During the inspection, Louis Padnos Iron & Metal indicated that they have completely revamped the incoming inspection protocol, however, since the plan was not updated accordingly this letter serves as a request to revise and resubmit it in accordance with the special condition. Additionally, the Malfunction Abatement Plan, required by FG- SHREDDEROP, Special Condition III.10, has not been properly updated to include the two cyclones in the new non-ferrous separation system. During the August 22, 2023 inspection, smoke was observed from the torching area, and observations made identified that a large press being disassembled via torching was leaking oil, was grease-covered, and rubber hoses had been torched. This is not acceptable and does not conform to the facility Best Practices for Torching Material, which was submitted in response to a 2012 Violation Notice for excess opacity from the torching emission unit. Therefore, pursuant to Rule 911, the AQD requests that Louis Padnos Iron & Metal submit a Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP) for all torching activities at this facility. An email communication from Louis Padnos Iron & Metal indicated that a trial operation of a hydrogen torching system will be conducted. A Rule 278 exemption demonstration is requested below. Additionally, the AQD requests an exemption determination for the shear emission unit which operates on a production basis. Certain processes and process equipment may be exempt from obtaining a PTI. Rule 278 establishes requirements of eligibility for exemptions listed in Rules 280 through 291. To be eligible for a listed exemption, the owner or operator of an exempt process or exempt process equipment must be able to provide information demonstrating the applicability of the exemption. Pursuant to Rule 278(a), this demonstration should be provided within 30 days of a written request by the AQD and should include the following information: • The specific exemption being used by the process or process equipment. • An analysis demonstrating that Rule 278 does not apply to the process or process equipment.

The plant yard was mostly dry and the site was not watering the plant yard to suppress fugitive dust. Titan Concrete staff cited freezing temperatures as preventing them from applying water to the yard. AQD staff advised that alternative dust suppressants should be applied in the case of freezing temperatures. The facility was performing concrete batch plant operations without a permit to install, which is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the concrete batch plant process equipment. An application is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air. Be advised that Rule 201, except as allowed in R 336.1202, R 336.1277 to R 336.1291, or R 336.2823(15), requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Per Rule 289(2)(d), the requirement of Rule 201 to obtain a permit to install does not apply to a concrete batch plant that meets the operating requirements listed in Rule 289(2)(d) and is not excluded from exemption per Rule 278. The requirements under Rule 289(2)(d) include Rule 289(2)(d)(vii)(C)(1), which says that the dust on the site roadways and plant yard shall be controlled by applications of water, calcium chloride, or other approved dust control compounds as often as necessary to meet an opacity limit of 5%. Based on the fugitive dust and lack of dust suppressant application observed during the complaint investigation, the facility is not meeting this requirement. Following this investigation, the department determined that Titan Concrete is not meeting the fugitive dust control requirements in Rule 289(2)(d)(vii). As stated in Rule 289(2)(d)(vii)(E), the facility should adjust the fugitive dust plan in Rule 289(2)(d)(vii) to address fugitive dust at all times of operation, including in the case of freezing temperatures. This plan should ensure that the facility complies with Rule 289(2)(d) and can avoid having to obtain a permit for the process. The facility should submit this fugitive dust plan to the AQD by February 1, 2023. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the fugitive dust observed was of sufficient intensity, frequency and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451.

As part of the onsite inspection, staff reviewed well gas data. The records reviewed have direct implications for the Layline Oil & Gas, LLC – State A2 (State A2) (State Registration Number P1075) facility located at northwest ¼ of the northwest ¼ of Section 12, Town 20 North, Range 06 West, Winterfield Township, Clare County Michigan. During the records review, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments FGOILPRODUCTION R 336.1201 Records reviewed as part of the inspection for Cranberry Lake indicate the Potential to Emit (PTE) for the State A2 facility is larger than what was provided during permitting of the facility. Emission records for Cranberry Lake were reviewed for the period of February 2023 through July 2023. During review of facility emission records, AQD staff observed the Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) concentrations and gas flow from the State A2 well, being flared at the Cranberry Lake facility. Being that gas from the State A2 well is also flared at the State A2 facility, the records reviewed have direct implications for the State A2 facility. 401 KETCHUM STREET • SUITE B • BAY CITY, MICHIGAN 48708 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-894-6200Wayne Hymen Layline Oil & Gas, LLC Page 2 August 22, 2023 H2S concentrations and gas flow rates of the State A2 well observed in the Cranberry Lake facility emission records indicate the H2S concentration and maximum daily gas flow of the State A2 well are larger than the values provided during permitting of the State A2 facility. The PTE of the State A2 facility appears to be larger than what was provided during permitting of the facility. The Permit to Install (PTI) application for the State A2 facility indicated gas from the State A2 well had a H2S concentration of 25,000 ppm and a daily gas flow rate of 115 mcf/day. During the period of records reviewed for Cranberry Lake, the H2S concentration of gas from the State A2 well ranged from 41,000 to 43,000 ppm. A maximum daily flow rate of 307 mcf/day occurred on May 21, 2023. Potential to emit means the maximum capacity of a stationary source to emit an air contaminant under its physical and operational design. The complete AQD definition of Potential to Emit (PTE) can be found in Rule 336.1116(n) of the administrative rules promulgated pursuant to Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended. Guidance on completing a PTE demonstration can be accessed through the following website: https://www.michigan.gov/egle/about/organization/air-quality/air-permits/new- source-review/potential-to-emit. The increase in the PTE for the facility is an increase in emissions and therefore triggers a modification pursuant to Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated pursuant to Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended.

Also we are trying to reduce the amount of pre spray testing to help limit the output. Demand has also slowed slightly since last year so we should be able to continue using the 10 ton permit for this year without issues. The main reason for going over our limit was the carry over from last year since we were very busy with the economic conditions.

Keith Walker II: VIOLATION NOTICE On July 5, 2023, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an investigation in response to a complaint of fallout in Detroit. Fallout allegedly occurred between the approximate hours of 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. on July 4, 2023. The scope of the investigation included the operations at Edward C Levy Plant 6 (Levy Plant 6) located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigation was to determine Levy Plant 6’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the administrative rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP-B4243-2016. The investigation was performed by Jonathan Lamb, EGLE-AQD. During the investigation, Jonathan Lamb observed fallout on vehicles and a sample of the fallout was collected and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Lab results indicate the composition of the fallout sample is consistent with materials associated with slag processing at Levy Plant 6. As a result, the following violation was observed: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Steel slag handling and General Condition 12(b) of Detection of fallout beyond the processing operations ROP No. MI-ROP-B4243- facility's property line, attributable to 2016 the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable R 336.1901(b) interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. R 336.1901(b) states, in part: “A person shall not cause or permit the emission of an air contaminant in quantities that cause injurious effects to human health and property, or the unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.” Based on the analysis of the fallout sample, the proximity of Levy Plant 6 to the complainant’s location, prevailing wind direction during the timeframe of the incident, and history of similar violation notices for fallout attributed to operations at Levy Plant 6, the AQD is alleging that Levy Plant 6 is the source of the fallout.

Keith Walker II: VIOLATION NOTICE On June 7, 2023, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an investigation in response to a complaint of fallout in Detroit. Fallout allegedly occurred between the evening of June 6 and 4:30 a.m. on June 7, 2023. The scope of the investigation included the operations at Edward C Levy Plant 6 (Levy Plant 6) located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigation was to determine Levy Plant 6’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the administrative rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP-B4243-2016. The investigation was performed by Jonathan Lamb, EGLE-AQD. During the investigation, Jonathan Lamb observed fallout on vehicles and samples of the fallout were collected and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Lab results indicate the composition of the fallout samples is consistent with materials associated with slag processing at Levy Plant 6. As a result, the following violation was observed: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Steel slag handling and General Condition 12(b) of Detection of fallout beyond the processing operations ROP No. MI-ROP-B4243- facility's property line, attributable to 2016 the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable R 336.1901(b) interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. R 336.1901(b) states, in part: “A person shall not cause or permit the emission of an air contaminant in quantities that cause injurious effects to human health and property, or the unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.” Based on the analysis of the fallout samples, the proximity of Levy Plant 6 to the complainant’s location, prevailing wind direction during the timeframe of the incident, and history of similar violation notices for fallout attributed to operations at Levy Plant 6, the AQD is alleging that Levy Plant 6 is the source of the fallout.

Lime Feed Rate Recordkeeping & Reporting Lime feed rates are required to be determined according to the equations in Appendix 7 of MI-ROP-A6497-2022a and the car push rates through the kilns. Based on the daily car push rate records provided by Michigan Brick, the “Kiln Firemen” lime feed rate records (where lime feed rates are manually recorded every 2 hours), and well as Michigan Brick’s spreadsheet, which calculates the lime feed rate according to Appendix 7, the AQD determined that there were 90 instances between August 2022 and February 2023, where the lime feed rate was lower than the required lime feed rate (2.5 times the stoichiometric ratio). Because Michigan Brick is required to use a lime feed rate that is 2.5 times the stoichiometric ratio, as calculated according to Appendix 7, these 90 instances are deviations from MI-ROP-A6497-2022a. Additionally, these 90 recorded instances are also CAM excursions, as defined in MI-ROP-A6497-2022a SC VI.4. Michigan Brick is required to report CAM excursions semi-annually and ROP deviations annually and semi-annually. The Annual and Semi-annual reports covering July 2022 – December 2022 were due by March 15, 2023. Michigan Brick submitted these reports without identifying and reporting the lime feed rate CAM excursions and the lime feed rate ROP deviations. The aforementioned are violations of the following in MI-ROP-A6497-2022a: • FGKILNS SC VI.3 for failure to maintain a lime feed rate that is 2.5 times that of the stoichiometric ratio, as calculated in Appendix 7, for those 90 instances. • FGKILNS SC VII.2 and SC VII.3 for failure to identify and report these lime feed rate deviations for August 2022 – December 2022 (annual and semi-annual reports). • FGKILNS SC VII.4 for failure to identify and report semi-annual CAM excursions for the 82 lime feed rate excursions that occurred between August 2022 and December 2022. Additionally, Michigan Brick is required to record the lime feed rate once every 2 hours as an indicator of proper operation of the dry lime injection control. For the records review between August 2022 and February 2023, there were 7 instances in October 2022, and one instance in November 2022, where the lime feed rate was not recorded, for a total of 8 instances. This is considered a deviation from the ROP requirements. For the semi-annual reporting period of July 2022 – December 2022, Michigan BrickJerry Greger Michigan Brick Page 7 July 28, 2023 submitted their report by March 15, 2023; however, they did not report the 8 instances where the lime feed rate was not recorded. The aforementioned are violations of the following in MI-ROP-A6497-2022a: • FGKILNS SC VI.3 for failure to record the lime feed rate every 2 hours for the October and November 2022 instances. • FGKILNS SC VII.1, SC VII.2 and SC VII.3 for failure to identify and report the lime feed rate missing records as deviations for October and November 2022 (annual and semi-annual reports). FGKILNS Baghouse Pressure Drop and Temperature Monitoring, Recordkeeping, and Reporting February 2022 Michigan Brick is required to continuously monitor and record the temperature entering the baghouse and the pressure drop across the baghouse. EUKILN01 temperature and pressure drop data loss occurred from February 16, 2022 – March 3, 2022. Baghouse temperature and pressure drop data were not continuously recorded during this time; however, monitoring of the temperature and pressure drop on the PCD system was still able to be conducted. The system was upgraded on March 3, 2022, to allow for recording of data to ensue. The aforementioned are violations of the following in MI-ROP-A6497-2015: • FGKILNS SC VI.1 and SC VI.2 for failure to continuously record the temperature entering EUKILN01’s baghouse, and for failure to continuously record the pressure drop across EUKILN01’s baghouse, respectively. Additionally, Michigan Brick is required to report all deviations annually and semi- annually. The annual report (January – December 2022) and semi-annual report (January – June 2022) submitted by March 15, 2022, did not include deviation reports for the February 16 – March 3, 2022 period, where pressure drop was not being recorded continuously. The aforementioned are violations of the following in MI-ROP-A6497-2015: • FGKILNS SC VII.1, VII.2 and VII.3 for failure to report the temperature and pressure drop missing records as deviations annually and semi-annually.Jerry Greger Michigan Brick Page 8 July 28, 2023 April 2023 During the inspection, the AQD staff was told that on April 6, 2023, a lightning storm incident impacted the temperature and pressure monitoring system. Both the data logger and on-screen PCD monitoring were destroyed with the lightning strike: the record logging and on-screen monitoring were no longer functional. All temperature and pressure records were destroyed, except for data from October 3, 2020 – May 27, 2021. This includes all data pre-October 3, 2020, and all data post-May 27, 2021. A refurbished monitoring system was installed on April 12, 2023. Michigan Brick continued to operate from April 6, 2023 – April 12, 2023, while the pressure drop and temperature monitoring and recordkeeping systems were non-functional. I requested continuous temperature and pressure drop records for January 2021 – December 2022, and Michigan Brick was only able to provide me with October 2020 – May 29, 2021 continuous records for these two operating parameters. The records indicate that from May 20 – May 27, 2021, the pressure drop exceeded the 6” w.c. upper limit of the operating range. Bill Stevens explained during a follow-up call on June 7, 2023, that the pressure drop exceeded the 6” w.c. limit because they increased the flow through the baghouse in an attempt to “clean” the bags of particulate prior to installing new bags. He said that this is common practice prior to installing new bags. Neither a CAM excursion report nor a deviation report was filed with the AQD for the 2021 annual and semi-annual reporting for the pressure drop excursion greater than 6” w.c. The aforementioned are violations of the following in MI-ROP-A6497-2015 or MI-ROP- A6497-2022a: 1. Michigan Brick shall not operate a kiln if the pressure drop across the kiln fabric filter is greater than 6” w.c. The pressure drop records from October 3, 2020 – May 27, 2021, indicate that from May 20 – May 27, 2021, the EUKILN01 baghouse was operated at a pressure drop that exceeded the baghouse’s 6” w.c. upper limit. This is a violation of FGKILNS SC III.2 of MI- ROP-A6497-2015. Operating the baghouse at a pressure drop greater than the upper limit is also a violation of FGKILNS SC IV of MI-ROP-A6497-2015 and Rule 910 for failure to operate the air-cleaning device (baghouse) in a satisfactory manner. 2. Michigan Brick is required to restore operation of FGKILNS to its normal or usual manner of operation as expeditiously as practicable, upon detecting an excursion in accordance with good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions and includes taking any necessary corrective actions to restore normal operation, and to prevent the likely reoccurrence of the cause of theJerry Greger Michigan Brick Page 9 July 28, 2023 excursion. Because Michigan Brick stated that the pressure drop excursions that occurred from May 20 – May 27, 2021, is common practice, the AQD believes no necessary corrective actions are in place to prevent a reoccurrence of this excursion. The AQD also believes the excursion of operating the baghouse at greater than 6” w.c. for 8 days in a row from May 20 – May 27, 2021, is not considered expeditious. This instance is therefore a violation of MI-ROP-A6497-2015 FGKILNS SC VI.8. 3. An excursion of the baghouse pressure drop range of 2 – 6 “w.c. occurred from May 20 – May 27, 2021, when the pressure drop exceeded 6” w.c. Excursions are required to be reported semi-annually under CAM. Michigan Brick did not report this excursion for the January – June 2021 semi-annual reporting period. Failure to identify and report the pressure drop excursion for the semi-annual period of January – June 2021 is a violation of FGKILNS SC VII.4 of MI-ROP-A6497-2015. 4. Michigan Brick is required to report all deviations annually and semi-annually. The annual report (January – December 2021) and semi-annual report (January – June 2021) did not include deviation reports for the May 20 – May 27, 2021, pressure drop excursions. The failure to report the May 20 – May 27, 2021, pressure drop excursions as deviations is a violation of FGKILNS SC VII.1, VII.2 and VII.3 of MI-ROP-A6497-2015. 5. Michigan Brick is required to continuously monitor and record the pressure drop as an indicator of proper operation of the fabric filter. Michigan Brick was unable to provide continuous records demonstrating that the pressure drop was continuously monitored and recorded from May 28, 2021 – April 12, 2023. This includes the pressure drop data not continuously recorded from February 16 – March 3, 2022, and April 6 – April 12, 2023. This is a violation of MI-ROP-A6497-2015 FGKILNS SC VI.2 (May 28, 2021 – August 2, 2022) and MI-ROP-A6497-2022a FGKILNS SC VI.2 (August 3, 2022 – April 12, 2023). 6. Michigan Brick is required to report all deviations annually and semi-annually. The annual report (January – December 2022) and semi-annual report (January – June 2022) did not include deviation reports for the February 16 – March 3, 2022, period where pressure drop was not being recorded continuously. The failure to identify and report this as deviations, is a violation of FGKILNS SC VII.1, VII.2 and VII.3 of MI-ROP-A6497-2015. 7. Michigan Brick shall not operate the kilns unless the gauge to measure pressure drop across the fabric filter collector is installed and operating properly. Michigan Brick operated EUKILN01 from April 6 – April 12, 2023,Jerry Greger Michigan Brick Page 10 July 28, 2023 when the pressure drop gauge was non-functional (pressure drop was unable to be monitored or recorded due to the monitoring system failure), and therefore not operating properly. This is a violation of MI-ROP-A6497-2022a FGKILNS SC IV.4. 8. Michigan Brick shall monitor and record the temperature entering each fabric filter for each kiln on a continuous basis. Michigan Brick was unable to provide me with the requested continuous temperature records for May 28, 2021 – December 2022. Additionally, temperature records were also not available for January – April 12, 2023. The missing data from May 28, 2021 – August 2, 2022, is a violation of FGKILNS VI.1 (MI-ROP-A6497-2015). The missing data from August 3, 2022 – April 12, 2023, is a violation of FGKILNS SC IV.2. and SC VI.1 (MI-ROP-A6497-2022a). 9. Michigan Brick is required to continuously monitor and record temperature data during operation of the kilns. Michigan Brick operated EUKILN01 from April 6 – April 12, 2023, when the baghouse temperature monitoring gauge was non-functional (temperature was unable to be monitored or recorded due to the monitoring system failure), and therefore not operating properly. This is a violation of MI-ROP-A6497-2022a FGKILNS SC IV.3. and SC VI.9. 10. Michigan Brick is required to submit semi-annual reports that include the summary information on the number, duration, and cause for CAM monitor downtime incidents. The semi-annual report submitted July 20, 2022, for the semi-annual period of January – June 2022, did not include reporting of the February 16 – March 3, 2022, temperature and pressure drop monitoring downtime. This is a violation of MI-ROP-A6497-2015, FGKILNS SC VII.4 EUKILN01 Visible Emissions With the issuance of MI-ROP-A6497-2022a, Michigan Brick was required to begin recording daily visible emissions readings rather than monthly on FGKILNS stacks. I requested daily visible emissions records for August 3, 2022 – April 2023. Michigan Brick was unable to provide daily visible emissions records. The aforementioned is a violation of the following in MI-ROP-A6497-2022a: • Failure to conduct daily visible emission observations from August 3, 2022 – April 30, 2023, is a violation of FGKILNS SC VI.5. • Failure to identify and report the deviations associated with not conducting the daily visible emission observations for the semi-annual reporting period of July – December 2022, as well as failure to identify these deviations in the annual report covering January – December 2022.Jerry Greger Michigan Brick Page 11 July 28, 2023 During the inspection on April 13, 2023, I observed opacity emitting from EUKILN01’s stack, and attributed the opacity to the installation of a new bag on the baghouse the day prior. On May 9, 2023, during the stack test on EUKILN01, I again noted opacity from the kiln stack. Michigan Brick stated that during the April 12, 2023 baghouse failure event, they ran UV tracer through the baghouse to determine the issue, and noted, based on the UV light test, that particulate was escaping through seals at the base of the bags. Michigan Brick continued to operate the kiln and its baghouse with the leaks at the seals, noted on April 12, through Wednesday, May 17, 2023. On May 17, 2023, Jerry Greger informed me that a special, high-heat resistant caulk, endorsed by the Gortex bags representative, was used to seal the leaking spots in the baghouse seals on May 17. He noted that they did find some of the tighteners at the top that clamp down the bags, were also loose. Operating the baghouse while leaks in the seals and loose clamps were present from April 12, when the issue was noticed through May 17, 2023, when the caulk was applied, is a violation of Rule 910: an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. The baghouse was not being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner from April 12 – May 17, 2023. • This is a violation of Rule 910 for failure to maintain and operate the baghouse in a satisfactory manner from April 12 – May 17, 2023. Because there was no pressure drop data for April 6 – April 12, 2023, nor any daily kiln visible emission readings during this time, there is therefore, no data suggesting that that baghouse was properly operating from April 6, 2022, up until Michigan Brick stated that the excess opacity was seen on April 12, 2022. The AQD considers this an abnormal condition under Rule 912 with indicators that the 0% opacity visible emission standard was exceeded from April 6 – April 12, 2023. Additionally, the leaks in the seals and loose clamps also created a situation where opacity was emitted at a threshold higher than the allowed emission standard of no visible emissions (indicator is 0% opacity) from April 12 – May 17, 2023. Rule 912 requires that Michigan Brick notify the AQD of the abnormal condition or malfunction, resulting in air emissions in excess of a standard that continues for more than 2 hours. The notice is required no later than 2 business days after the discovery of the malfunction. The malfunction was discovered on April 12, 2023, and the AQD was not notified until the day of the stack test, May 9, 2023. This is a violation of Rule 912(4) as the notice was provided 27 days after the malfunction was discovered. Additionally, a written report is required to be submitted within 10 days after the malfunction has been corrected, or within 30 days of discovery of the malfunction,Jerry Greger Michigan Brick Page 12 July 28, 2023 whichever occurs first. The AQD was notified on May 17, 2023, that the malfunction was corrected. This is a violation of Rule 912(5) for failure to provide a written report to AQD within 30 days of the discovery of the malfunction (30 days from date of discovery of the malfunction would have been May 12, 2023). The AQD believes the abnormal condition occurred from April 6, 2023 – May 17, 2023. May 17, 2023, is when Michigan Brick informed AQD that the malfunction had been fixed. • This is a violation of Rules 912(4) & (5) for failure to notify the AQD and provide a written report within the specified timeframes. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by August 18, 2023, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include the following for each violation: • The dates the violations occurred, • An explanation of the causes and duration of the violations, • Whether the violations are ongoing, • A summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place, • And what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence. In addition to the above list, Michigan Brick shall include in their response the following: • A date by which they will submit a revised Preventative Maintenance Program which includes addressing the baghouse and monitoring system malfunctions. The revised Preventative Maintenance Program shall include items that are outlined in Rule 911 for Malfunction Abatement Plans. • A date by which they will submit a Quality Improvement Plan, as provided under 40 CFR Part 64 for Compliance Assurance Monitoring.

The purpose of this investigation was to determine Holcim (US) Inc.’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules.

During the investigation, AQD Staff collected samples of particulate matter that deposited on private property. The samples were submitted to EGLE’s contract laboratory for microscopic analysis. A copy of the analytical laboratory report is enclosed. It concludes, in part, “Stereomicroscopic observations and polarized light microscopy (PLM) of these samples showed the following: Merit Number: S50024.01 contains the following particles: Calcite (CaCO3)-70%, Quartz (sand)- 5%, Pollen-10%, Insect and plant fibers-5%, and magnetic iron containing particles-<1%. Merit Number: S50024.02 contains the following particles: Calcite (CaCO3)-60%, Quartz (sand)- 5%, Pollen-10%, Insect and plant fibers-15%, and magnetic iron containing particles-<1%.” Further discussion of the results, in part, “Both samples contain an extraordinary amount of Calcite (CaCO3), which strongly suggests an industrial source. If the suspected source of this dust is a cement producer, dust from Calcium Hydroxide (CaOH2) can rapidly convert to Calcite upon exposure to CO2 in air. If the source is a quarry, it would likely be a limestone quarry which is CaCO3.” 2100 WEST M-32 • GAYLORD, MICHIGAN 49735-9282 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-731-4920cc/enc: Enclosure contact regarding Thank factual constitute If P.O. 49735 Please reoccurrence. by actions of this this Please Act private In July Page Holcim Jeffrey Holcim which the the Box letter).

Front St., Monroe, Michigan. The purpose of this notification was to notify AQD of an abnormal condition period which caused emissions of SO in excess of a permit condition. DTE Monroe submitted this notification 2 per the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 8-22; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-B2816-2019; Based on the information provided in the notification, staff determined the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EU-UNIT2 R 336.1401, R 336.2810, 40 CFR Due to an abnormal 52.21(j), R 336.2902(2)(c), 40 CFR condition on June 9, 2023, Part 51, Appendix S / PTI No. 8-22 Unit 2 exceeded its SO 2 SC I.5; MI-ROP-B2816-2019 SC I.5 emission limit of 0.107 lb/MMBtu based on a 24 rolling average as determined each hour the boiler operates for 20 hours. DTE Monroe determined the cause of the elevated emissions was the loss of oxidation air within the flue gas desulfurization (FGD) absorber tower. This was caused by the north oxidation air blower shutting down due to high oil temperature. This created sulfite binding within the absorber tower which caused the absorber tower to become saturated with gypsum. Gypsum is a normal product of the chemical reaction that reduces SO within the FGD process. However, when the absorber tower 2 becomes saturated with gypsum, the chemical reaction that reduces SO within the tower is inhibited as 2 the limestone powder that is injected into the FGD system cannot properly dissolve into the slurry to provide sufficient reduction of SO . 2 DTE Monroe asserted that once the elevated emissions were noticed via the continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS), operations took action to troubleshoot and bring SO emission rates back 2 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-780-7690Daniel Casey DTE Electric Company – Monroe Power Plant July 11, 2023 Page 2 to normal levels. Although the emissions were brought back into control within a few hours of the monitoring system signaling elevated emissions, the elevated emissions resulted in a longer period during which the 24-hour rolling average SO emission rate was above the permitted limit. DTE stated 2 that after the elevated emissions period and corrective actions being taken, SO emissions returned to 2 normal rates and have remained there, well below the permitted emission limit. DTE Monroe has stated that corrective action has been taken based on this incident. The alarm system has been modified to better signal the loss of oxidation air and identify issues more quickly. DTE Monroe asserts that this will allow operations personnel to react more quickly to significant issues related to oxidation air levels. Additionally, DTE Monroe states that the alarm level related to oxidation air will escalate if the issue is not addressed after the initial alarm comes in. These modifications will ensure that the alarms are addressed in a timely manner to minimize any periods of elevated emissions. DTE Monroe also stated that the Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP) for the pollution control equipment associated with the FGD-controlled units is being updated to include the monitoring modifications and will be submitted to the Jackson District office within 45 days per MI-ROP-B2816-2019, EU-UNIT2 Special Condition III.1. The excess emissions associated with this incident will be included in the quarterly excess emissions reports which will be filed by Monroe Power Plant as required by June 30, 2023.

The coating use rate shall not be more than 200 gallons, as applied, minus water, per month; 2. Any exhaust system that serves only coating spray equipment is supplied with a properly installed and operating particulate control system; and 3. Monthly coating usage records are maintained on file for the most recent two-year period and are made available to EGLE upon request. (ROP-subject sources must keep records for five years.) INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THIS RECORD-KEEPING FORM COMPLETE THE MONTHLY COATING USAGE LOG FOR EACH SURFACE COATING LINE USING THE EXEMPTION IN RULE 287(2)(c). Columns (a) and (b): Identify the name of the coating manufacturer and the product identification number. ihis information can be obtained from the coating container or the MSDS. Column (c): List the coating type. This may include but not be limited to the following: precoat, primer/primer surfacer, primer sealer, topcoat, thinners, and reducers. Column (d): Record the volume of coating used, as applied, minus water, in gallons. At the end of the month, total the quantities in column (d). This total should not exceed 200 gallons. [To find the volume as applied, minus water, multiply the amount used by 1 minus the volume fraction of water in the coating. For example, if you use 5 gallons of a coating that is 40% water by volume, multiply 5 by (1-0.40). This calculation yields a coating usage of 3 gallons, as applied, minus water.] Column (e): Initials of operator or owner. Column (f): Record the volume of cleanup solvents used in gallons. Even though Rule 287(2)(c) does not address cleanup solvent usage, it is advisable to keep track of this usage. Facilities that receive Michigan Air Pollution Reporting Forms should include their usage of cleanup solvent on the forms.

The process was not vented to the RTO when both scrubbers were offline. The plant does not have the ability to vent these emissions to the RTO. FGFERM&DIST MI-ROP-N6996-2018a, Plant did not achieve a SC III.1 minimum VOC control efficiency of 97.0 percent across the scrubbers (CE004 and CE014). FGFERM&DIST General Condition 25 Notification of emissions of any air contaminant continuing for more than two hours in excess of an applicable standard or limitation, as required in Rule 912, required not later than two business days after the start-up, shutdown, or discovery of the abnormal conditions or malfunction. Written reports required within 10 days after the event occurred, or within 30 days of discovery of the abnormal conditions, whichever is first. Exceedance occurred on January 9, 2023. AQD notified by phone on January 27, 2023. Written report received April 3, 2023.

Malfunction of Scrubber 2 had been determined on April 26, 2022. Corrective action had not been completed to resolve control efficiency prior to routing of emissions from fermentation and distillation. EGLE-AQD received Poet’s response to the above notice on April 17, 2023. The response does not adequately address the following violations. Special Condition (SC) III.3 of FERM&DIST in MI-ROP-N6996-2018a requires in the event that both associated scrubbers (CE004 and CE014) are unavailable due to maintenance or other operational reasons, the equipment in FGFERM&DIST is vented to the RTO (CE012). During the VOC exceedance on January 9, 2023, equipment in FGFERM&DIST was not vented to the RTO when both scrubbers were offline. Poet does not have the ability to vent these emissions to the RTO. Resolution of this violation requires modifying permit conditions to match actual operational conditions. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air. Please submit a permit application for FERM&DIST within 60 days of receiving this letter. Additionally, SC IV.2. of FERM&DIST in MI-ROP-N6996-2018a restricts operation of any equipment in FGFERM&DIST unless one of the scrubbers (CE004 or CE014) is installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, except as allowed by SC III.3. Satisfactory operation of the scrubber includes maintaining the scrubber liquid flow rate and pressure drop in the range identified in the MAP as constituting satisfactory operation. An excursion of the scrubber liquid flow rate and pressure drop limit is the exceedance of the operational parameter limit or acceptable range defined in the MAP. The approved MAP and CAM plans identify the 3-hour average differential pressure to be less than 15 inches of water column and the average 3-hour water flow rate to be 30 gallons per minute (GPM) with mash flow online, and after 36 hours of mash flow offline 15 GPM. The CAM rule aims to have owners and operators maintain their control devices at the levels that assure compliance. CAM plans should identify representative parameters upon which compliance can be assured, establish indicator ranges and use performance testing and other information to verify the parameters and ranges represent compliance. Further, these plans should provide a description of theDoug DeLand Poet Biorefining – Caro, LLC Page 4 June 1, 2023 corrective procedures or operational changes that shall be taken in the event of a malfunction or failure to achieve compliance with the applicable emission limits. EGLE- AQD requests Poet to reevaluate their monitoring parameters and provide revised CAM and MAP plans within 30 days of receiving this letter. Lastly, as stated in SC IV.2. of FERM&DIST in MI-ROP-N6996-2018a, operating conditions specified in SC III.3 are not feasible, and resolution requires a permit modification.

This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. This also constitutes a violation of PTI 539-96 SC 4, which states that the facility shall not operate the system unless appropriate fabric filters are installed and operating properly. Staff observed visible emissions from a process stack due to the torn fabric filter. This constitutes a violation of PTI 539-96 SC 3, which states that there shall be no visible emissions from the system. Based on the duration of visible emissions observed during the inspection, these emissions occurred for more than two hours. The facility did not report abnormal operation resulting in air contaminant emissions for more than two hours in excess of the standard set by PTI 539-96 SC 3. This constitutes a violation of Rule 912(3). During the inspection, staff requested records showing the implementation of the maintenance schedule included in PTI 539-96. Korex staff indicated that general maintenance is performed weekly but was not able to verify that maintenance actions listed in the permit are performed according to the included schedule. This constitutes a violation of PTI 539-96 SC 9, which states that the facility shall not operate systems unless the preventative maintenance program in the permit has been implemented and maintained.

The scope of the investigation included the operations at US Silica located at 20837 North Huron River Dr., Rockwood, Michigan. The purpose of the investigation was to determine US Silica’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and Permit to Install (PTI) number 150-08E. The investigation was performed by Jonathan Lamb of the AQD on April 13, 2023, from approximately 10:40 AM to 11:30 AM. During the investigation, AQD staff observed fallout on the complainant’s vehicle and obtained a sample of the fallout for lab analysis. Based on this investigation and results of the lab analysis, the following violation was observed: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Sand processing facility R336.1901(b); Detection of fallout beyond the facility’s property line, attributable PTI No. 150-08E, to the facility, of sufficient General Condition 6 magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable interference with comfortable enjoyment of life and property. Results of the lab analysis of the fallout were received by AQD on May 10, 2023. Results show that the fallout sample was consistent with reference samples obtained by AQD staff at US Silica on April 20, 2020, and were likely attributable to silica processing operations.

KEATLEY GOVERNOR ACTING DIRECTOR May 18, 2023 David Martin, Plant Manager ALCO Products, LLC 580 Old St Jean Street Detroit, Michigan 48214 SRN: N8308, Wayne County Dear David Martin: VIOLATION NOTICE On April 11, 2023, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an inspection of ALCO Products, LLC (ALCO) located at 580 Old St Jean Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to follow- up on a Rule 290 determination for the two asphalt coating lines and associated mixers at the facility from a previous inspection on August 16, 2022, as well as to determine ALCO's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Michigan Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); and the Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules. As a result of the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments New Asphalt Coating Line Rule 201(1) The two asphalt coating lines and 1, Original Asphalt Coating associated mixers are installed and Line 2, and associated operating absent a Permit to Install, mixers and do not appear to be exempt per Rule 290 from the requirement to obtain a Permit to Install. ALCO operates two asphalt coating lines that apply a mixture of asphalt, rubber, and limestone onto fiberglass or polyester sheets to produce a flooring or roofing product. Line 1 may also apply a granular surface like sand. Mixers heat, mix, and pipe the mixture to the asphalt coating lines. According to ALCO, Line 2, the older of the two lines, was installed around 1999/2000; Line 1, the newer of the two lines, was installed around 2016/2017 and became operational in 2017; and a new mixer tank was installed in 2016. Each asphalt coating line and mixer emits air pollutants, including asphalt fumes, and each is installed and operating absent a Permit to Install issued by the AQD pursuant to Rule 201(1). ALCO has heretofore claimed the two asphalt coating lines and associated mixers are exempt from the requirement to obtain a Permit to Install per Rule 290 for CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 313-456-4700David Martin ALCO Products, LLC Page 2 May 18, 2023 emission units with limited emissions. However, the equipment does not appear to be exempt from obtaining an air quality Permit to Install per Rule 290 for two reasons. First, asphalt fumes screening levels are less than allowable Rule 290 thresholds. Rule 290 was first promulgated in 1993 and then revised in 1995, 1997, and 2016. At its inception, Rule 290 applied exclusively to process or process equipment that only emitted noncarcinogenic volatile organic compounds. With its revision in 1997 the applicability of Rule 290 was expanded to include additional pollutants, including carcinogens. However, no category of volatile organic compound or particulate matter emissions in Rule 290 allow for emissions of a carcinogenic air toxic with a screening level below 0.04 micrograms per cubic meter. In 1997, Rule 290(a)(ii)(D) read as follows: (D) The emission unit shall not emit any air contaminants, excluding noncarcinogenic volatile organic compounds and noncarcinogenic materials which are listed in R 336.1122(f) as not contributing appreciably to the formation of ozone, with an initial threshold screening level or initial risk screening level less than 0.04 micrograms per cubic meter. This prohibition is retained within the current rule at Rule 290(2)(a)(ii)(C). The two asphalt coating lines and their associated mixers process asphaltic bitumen (CAS No. 8052-42-4) and therefore emit asphalt fumes of the same material. Footnote 5 on asphalt fumes in the Michigan Air Toxics Database states that The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with this footnote are carcinogenic and have potency equivalency factors (PEFs) that quantitate their potency relative to that of benzo(a)pyrene (CAS# 50-32-8). Air emission mixtures of carcinogenic PAHs, including asphalt fumes, should be evaluated additively using these PEFs and the benzo(a)pyrene IRSL and SRSL. The ITSL for benzo(a)pyrene applies only to benzo(a)pyrene and none of the other PAHs. AQD’s history of regulating mixtures of carcinogenic PAHs is further described in the February 7, 2017 AQD document entitled “File for Benzo(a)pyrene and Other Carcinogenic PAHs”: In 1995, the Air Quality Division (AQD) started to regulate B(a)P and carcinogenic PAHs based on the recommendation of the Scientific Advisory Panel (SAP, 1995a; SAP, 1995b). The SAP recommended that the relative potency factors (RPFs) used by EPA (1993) be applied to 6 carcinogenic PAHs that cause cancer in the same way that B(a)P does. The new IUR used above to derive the IRSL and SRSL updates the November 4, 2015 AQD methodology by applying this EPA (2017) IUR. There is no change to the November 4, 2015 expanded number of 15 specificDavid Martin ALCO Products, LLC Page 3 May 18, 2023 PAHs (Table 1), which superseded the approach described by EPA (1993) and confirmed by the SAP. The expanded list of PAHs (Table 1) is based on California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA, 2011, 2015) potency equivalency factors (PEFs), which are analogous to the RPFs used by EPA. The general method of assessing the risk of a mixture of PAHs recommended by Michigan’s SAP (1995a; SAP, 1995b) based on their relative potency to that of B(a)P is retained. The addressing of asphalt fume PAHs was originally recommended by the SAP (1995b) and was adopted by the AQD; this approach is also being updated by the current B(a)P IUR and PEFs. The potency of asphalt fumes is therefore evaluated in relation to benzo(a)pyrene. The manner of the evaluation is in the variation of predicted ambient impacts, not in the variation of the screening level, as described in the same February 7, 2017 document: The combined maximum ambient impacts of all carcinogenic PAHs (as B(a)P equivalents) must be below the IRSL. The SRSL can be used in lieu of the IRSL, if appropriate, pursuant to Rule 225(2). In 1995, the initial risk screening level for benzo(a)pyrene had already been established at 0.0005 micrograms per cubic meter. The IRSL was modified to 0.0006 micrograms per cubic meter on November 4, 2015, and then to 0.001 micrograms per cubic meter in the February 7, 2017 document. In summary, since 1995, the AQD has evaluated emissions of asphalt fumes against a baseline IRSL for benzo(a)pyrene, which has always been lower than the 0.04 micrograms per cubic meter minimum allowed under Rule 290 since 1997. As the two asphalt coating lines and their associated mixers emit asphalt fumes and were installed after 1997, this equipment is not eligible to utilize Rule 290 in order to be exempt from the requirement to obtain a Permit to Install under Rule 201(1). Second, notwithstanding the eligibility of the equipment, it appears that ALCO has not maintained the emissions calculations required under Rule 290. Rule 290 as effective on June 13, 1997 read, in part, “The requirement of R 336.1201(1) to obtain a permit to install does not apply to any of the emission units listed in (a) if the conditions listed in (b), (c), and (d) are met.” Subsection Rule 290(c) and (d) read: (c) Records of material use and calculations identifying the quality, nature, and quantity of the air contaminant emissions are maintained in sufficient detail to demonstrate that the emissions meet the emission limits outlined in this rule.David Martin ALCO Products, LLC Page 4 May 18, 2023 (d) The records are maintained on file for the most recent 2-year period and are made avail-able to the air quality division upon request. Rule 290 as updated December 20, 2016, contains similar requirements to maintain records. AQD requested records associated with Rule 290 in its letter sent August 19, 2022 (attached for reference) following the inspection on August 16, 2022. AQD also requested emissions records Thursday April 13, 2023, following the inspection on April 11, 2023. From the air quality inspection, it appears that the facility has not maintained records as required by Rule 290 and therefore the equipment is not exempt from obtaining a Permit to Install under Rule 290. Enclosed is a copy of the above cited Rule 290 effective December 20, 2016 and Rule 290 as effective June 13, 1997; Rule 201; screening levels for compounds added in November of 1995 including PAH; the July 20, 1995 Recommendations of the Scientific Advisory Panel; and the February 7, 2017 AQD document entitled “File for Benzo(a)pyrene and Other Carcinogenic PAHs”. Because the two asphalt coating lines and associated mixers are not exempt from obtaining a Permit to Install, ALCO has installed and commenced operation of unpermitted equipment at this facility. The AQD staff advised ALCO via email on April 18, 2023, that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed Permit to Install application for asphalt coating line process equipment and associated mixers. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant.

Recordkeeping for styrene is not being done on a 12-month rolling total basis. As such, this is a violation of PTI No. 29-20, Special condition No. VI.4. In addition to addressing the violations noted above, the AQD requests that Andronaco Industries conduct a facility-wide inventory of equipment and identify the permitted or exempt status of each. It is noted that a stack is associated with the EUCOMPMIXING activities that was not identified in the permit application. An evaluation of whether a permit modification is required because of this change should be included. Two stacks are associated with EUPULTMOLDING which were not identified in the permit application. An evaluation of whether a permit modification is required because of this change should be included. There are several ovens of various sizes that are being used to sinter polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and other plastics that are not permitted. Be advised, Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 requires that an air use permit to install (PTI) be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. However, certain processes and process equipment may be exempt from obtaining a PTI. Rule 278 establishes requirements of eligibility for exemptions listed in Rules 280 through 291. To be eligible for a listed exemption, the owner or operator of an exempt process or exempt process equipment must be able to provide information demonstrating the applicability of the exemption. Pursuant to Rule 278(a), this demonstration should be provided within 30 days of a written request by the AQD and should include the following information: • A description of all the exempt process or process equipment at the facility, including the date of installation. • The specific exemption being used by the process or process equipment. • An analysis demonstrating that Rule 278 does not apply to the process or process equipment. In addition, please provide a facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration for all pollutants at the source.

The purpose of the records review was to determine Emerald Corporation's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; and Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended; the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 401-08. On September 1, 2022, the AQD sent Emerald Corporation a Violation Notice citing catalytic oxidizer destruction efficiency and volatile organic compound (VOC) emission limit violations discovered during an inspection and stack test. The AQD recognizes that repairs to the catalytic oxidizer for control of VOCs were completed in February 2023, and a subsequent stack test report received on April 25, 2023, indicates that the unit is now achieving an 86% destruction efficiency (note the report is still undergoing review by the Technical Programs Unit). At the time of this letter, the VOC emission exceedances are ongoing due to the delay of the catalytic oxidizer repairs and the limit being based on a 12-month rolling time period. In response to this letter, please notify the AQD within 15 days after the first month when emissions calculations indicate compliance with both the monthly and 12-month rolling VOC limit.

The AQD staff previously observed dust fallout covering Sherriff Goslin employee and company vehicles on the following dates: 11/12/21, 2/24/22, 3/16/22, 4/12/22, 5/4/22, 6/23/22. It was originally believed that the dust originated from the stack of a cyclone in the finished feed bay. Since the previously issued violation notices, the facility has rerouted the stack of this cycle back into the building, and complaints have decreased. In this instance, the wind was coming out of the east for part of the day, with gusts up to 17 mph. Via cameras located in the loading area, staff observed the finished feed being loaded into trucks, inside the loading bay, with the doors left open. Doors left open while loading could facilitate dust fallout on neighboring businesses if the winds are in the correct direction and gusts are high enough.

The purpose of this letter is to determine Mold Masters' compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 368-06D; and the ACO. The AQD has determined the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUFlockBooth5 ACO AQD No. 2023-03, Stack testing was not paragraph 10.A. conducted by March 5, 2023, 60 days from ACO issuance. FGFACILITY Rule 202 Michigan Air Emissions Reporting System (MAERS) forms and Supplemental Control Template (SCT) were not submitted. Pursuant to PTI No. 368-06D, EUFlockBooth5, Special Condition V.2. and 3, Mold Masters planned to conduct VOC destruction efficiency (DE) stack testing of EUFlockBooth5 on January 31, 2023, and to verify that the associated enclosure met the definition of permanent total enclosure or verify capture efficiency of the enclosure. However, you contacted the AQD the evening of January 30, 2023, to advise that there were problems with equipment, and testing would be postponed. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

By March 5, 2023, Mold Masters had not completed the required stack testing of EUFlockbooth5. This is a violation of the ACO, specifically paragraph 10.A., which states: “No more than sixty (60) days after the effective date of this Consent Order, the Company shall complete testing for VOC destruction efficiency and verify capture efficiency of the enclosure or that the enclosure meets the definition of a PTE for EUFlockBooth5.” Additionally, the AQD was informed in a voice mail message from you on February 11, 2022, that preliminary stack testing results showed a destruction efficiency of 94-95%, below the minimum required VOC DE of 95% in PTI No. 368-06D, EUFlockBooth5, Special Condition IV.3. Because the stack testing firm was reported to be having issues with their equipment, these results could not be quality assured as accurate. Therefore, a violation of this condition is not being cited at this time. In January 2023, the AQD, notified Mold Masters of the requirement to submit a 2022 air pollution report, with the required submittal date of March 15, 2023.

During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Primary crusher General PTI No. 446-99, A water spray system was FGCRUSHING Special not installed on the primary Condition (SC) 1.7 crusher. FGCRUSHING General PTI No. 446-99, The fugitive dust plan was FGCRUSHING SC 1.6 not being followed for unpaved site roadways. The AQD noted excessive opacity from the primary crusher and learned that the crusher was not equipped with a water spray system or water line for dust control. This constitutes a violation of General PTI No. 446-99, FGCRUSHING SC 1.7, which requires, in part, that each crusher and screen shall be equipped with a water spray, and the control equipment shall be properly operated as necessary to comply with all emission limits. The primary crusher is subject to the opacity limit of 15 percent for crushers in General PTI 446-99, FGCRUSHING, SC 1.2b. Based upon instantaneous opacity observations before the plant stopped production, it is unlikely the crusher would have been able to comply with the opacity limit, had visible emission readings been conducted.

Upon arriving at Temperform, almost all process units except one (sand burn-off oven with an afterburner stopped operating about 1 p.m.) were operating while two corresponding plant emissions control system scrubbers were shutdown. The scrubbers’ non-operational status was indicated by absence of flow at the recirculating tank; and the control panel was turned off. Evidently, the odors were due to uncontrolled plant emissions. Please be advised that PTI No. 60-00C prohibits operating any emission unit without properly simultaneously operating the two parallel scrubbers. When the scrubbers were started (by Dan Young), contaminated water spilled rapidly from a broken pipe at the roof level. Also, scrubber liquor water was sprayed on the nearby personnel forming black stains on clothing. Based on these observations, the parallel scrubbers were not in a mechanical condition to operate.

This is a violation of PTI No. 167-18, Special Condition (SC) I.2, which prohibits visible emissions. During an internal review, The Decc Company found that an oven door seal was compromised, allowing more oxygen into the oven than normal. The records indicated that the afterburner shuts down while the main chamber oven is above 900°F. This is not considered proper operation, and the afterburner must remain at the required temperature while combustion is occurring in the oven. As such, this is a violation of PTI No. 167-18, SC IV.1. Due to the above conditions, and pursuant to Rule 911, the AQD requests that The Decc Company prepare and submit a Preventative Maintenance and Malfunction Abatement Plan for both rack burn-off ovens EURBO1 and EURBO2. This plan shall be submitted to the AQD District Supervisor within 45 days of the date of this letter. The use of purge/clean-up solvent and the amount being reclaimed is not being tracked in accordance with General PTI No. 87-09 which is a violation of SC VI.3. In addition, it is noted that in 2019 the AQD discussed that spraying solvent into the filter of the paint booth is not considered proper disposal, yet that practice continues. This is a violation of PTI No. 87-09, SC III.1. Additionally, during this inspection it was identified that The Decc Company did not include the hydrogen fluoride (HF) emissions that are generated from the burn-off ovens (EURBO1 and EURBO2) in the FGFACILITY recordkeeping as required by PTI No. 7-07B. This deficiency was identified during the previous compliance inspection in 2019 and was included in the compliance summary section of the inspection report. Because the HF emissions have not been incorporated into the recordkeeping, this is a violation of PTI No. 7-07B, SC VI.2. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by May 8, 2023 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

FGFERM&DIST R 336.1910 Rule 910 requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Malfunction of scrubber 2 had been determined on April 26, 2022. Corrective action had not been completed to resolve control efficiency prior to routing of emissions from fermentation and distillation. On January 27, 2023, the AQD was notified of a Rule 912 initial notification. A written report was submitted to the AQD on April 3, 2023. On January 9, 2023, while performing stack testing on Scrubber 1 (CE04), Poet determined maintenance was needed which required Scrubber 1 (CE04) to be taken offline. While performing the maintenance, emissions from fermentation and distillation were routed to Scrubber 2 (CE014). Mechanical limitations concerning Scrubber 2 (CE014) had previously been identified on April 26, 2022, when a Rule 912 was reported for exceeding VOC and Acetaldehyde emissions. Routing emissions to Scrubber 2 (CE014) on January 9, 2023 resulted in exceeding the 19.66 lb/hr VOC limit and emitting VOC emissions at a rate of 30.09 lb/hr. On January 9, 2023, Poet operated Scrubber 2 (CE014) while it was malfunctioning. Mechanical limitations concerning Scrubber 2 (CE014) had previously been identified on April 26, 2022, causing VOC and Acetaldehyde emission exceedances. Poet had committed to keeping Scrubber 2 (CE014) offline until the mechanical issues were resolved. However, while performing the maintenance on Scrubber 1 (CE04) on January 9, 2023, emissions from fermentation and distillation were routed to Scrubber 2 (CE014).

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Fritz Enterprises' compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 92-00B. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments FG-SHREDDEROP PTI 92-00B, FG- Facility malfunction SHREDDEROP, SC III.9; Rule abatement plan (MAP) 911 has not been updated since 2002. EU-ZBOX PTI No. 92-00B, EU-ZBOX Wet scrubber does not Special Condition (SC) IV.1, have a pressure drop and VI. 1; Rule 910 gauge. On May 26, 2022, the AQD was provided with an electronic copy of the malfunction abatement plan (MAP) used by Fritz Enterprises. The MAP was dated December 2002. It has not been updated, as the list of supervisory personnel and contact information is for the previous site owner, S & S Metals. Also, it does not reference the post-December 2002 installation of the Smart Water Injection System, and the corresponding removal from service, of one of the two cyclones. This is a violation of Rule 911(2), which requires the following: CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O. BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-284-6651Sam Amer Fritz Enterprises, Inc. Page 2 April 10, 2023 (1) A malfunction abatement plan required by subrule (1) of this rule shall be in writing and shall, at a minimum, specify all of the following: (a) A complete preventative maintenance program, including identification of the supervisory personnel responsible for overseeing the inspection, maintenance, and repair of air-cleaning devices, a description of the items or conditions that shall be inspected, the frequency of the inspections or repairs, and an identification of the major replacement parts that shall be maintained in inventory for quick replacement. (b) An identification of the source and air-cleaning device operating variables that shall be monitored to detect a malfunction or failure, the normal operating range of these variables, and a description of the method of monitoring or surveillance procedures. (c) A description of the corrective procedures or operational changes that shall be taken in the event of a malfunction or failure to achieve compliance with the applicable emission limits. Maintaining the plan involves updating the MAP to reflect the current personnel, control equipment and the current operational practices at the site. It is important that plant employees and the AQD have access to an up to date and accurate MAP. Additionally, the MAP identifies the two cyclones which were in service in December 2002 having pressure drop gauges, as well as the wet scrubber. It is the AQD’s understanding that the current single cyclone serving the plant has a pressure drop gauge, but the wet scrubber does not. This is a violation of PTI No. 92-00B, EU-ZBOX Special Condition (SC) VI.1, which requires: “The permittee shall install, calibrate, maintain and operate a pressure drop gauge and a liquid flow indicator on the wet scrubber portion of EU-ZBOX.” Lack of monitoring equipment is also a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law, and of PTI No. 92-00B, EU-ZBOX SC IV.1, which requires: “The permittee shall not operate EU-ZBOX unless the cyclone and wet scrubber are installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner.” The Fritz Enterprises response to the AQD violation notice that was received electronically on November 17, 2022, included an illustration of areas where materials were reported to have built up inside ductwork. It stated that a preventative maintenance program mandating cleaning out & clearing duct system every other day, was established and implemented. This should be added to the MAP. DocumentationSam Amer Fritz Enterprises, Inc. Page 3 April 10, 2023 should be kept of the inspections and maintenance performed on the plant, to demonstrate that the MAP is being followed. The December 2002 MAP states that at plant startup and shutdown, readings from pressure drop gauges and the waterflow rate (for the wet scrubber) are recorded. The VN response received on November 17, 2022, stated that pressure drop from the cyclone and water flow rate (from the wet scrubber) are recorded daily. Please clarify the MAP as to the number of times per day these are recorded. Page 4 of the December 2002 MAP describes the wet scrubber pressure drop gauge used at that time having a range of “½ to 1-1/2 inches of water,” but does not specify if this was in units of inches, water column. Page 6 of the MAP gives numeric values, with no units of measurements. Please clarify these units in the MAP. The MAP does not address the contingency of when a pressure drop gauge or water flow gauge for the plant are not functioning. Additionally, it is the AQD’s understanding that operation of the wet scrubber in winter may be problematic, and the MAP does not address this. Please submit an amended MAP to the AQD Lansing District Supervisor Robert Byrnes, within 45 days of the date of receipt of this request, pursuant to PTI No. 92-00B, FG-SHREDDEROP SC III.9, which states, in part: “If at any time the MAP fails to address or inadequately addresses an event that meets the characteristics of a malfunction, the permittee shall amend the MAP within 45 days after such an event occurs. The permittee shall also amend the MAP within 45 days, if new equipment is installed or upon request from the District Supervisor. The permittee shall submit the MAP and any amendments to the MAP to the AQD District Supervisor for review and approval. If the AQD does not notify the permittee within 90 days of submittal, the MAP or amended MAP shall be considered approved. Until an amended plan is approved, the permittee shall implement corrective procedures or operational changes to achieve compliance with all applicable emission limits.” Also, please keep in mind that Rule 912(2) and (3) require the following: “(2) The owner or operator of a source, process, or process equipment shall provide notice of an abnormal condition, start-up, shutdown, or a malfunction that results in emissions of a hazardous air pollutant which continue for more than 1 hour in excess of any applicable standard or limitation established by the clean air act or the emissions of a toxic air contaminant which continue for more than 1 hour in excess of an emission standard established by a rule promulgated under the air pollution act or an emission limitation specified in a permit issued or order entered under the air pollution act. “(3) The owner or operator of a source, process, or process equipment shall provideSam Amer Fritz Enterprises, Inc. Page 4 April 10, 2023 notice and a written report of an abnormal condition, start-up, shutdown, or a malfunction that results in emissions of any air contaminant continuing for more than 2 hours in excess of a standard or limitation established by any applicable requirement.” Lastly, it was discussed that Fritz Enterprises is considering the installation of additional 3- sided bunkers, or enclosures, for storing non-ferrous, non-metal, waste materials (fluff) onsite. Please ensure that the total capacity of bunker storage does not exceed the volume of 3,300 cubic yards allowed by PTI 92-00B, FG-SHREDDEROP SC III.6. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by May 1, 2023, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The NSPS section 60.759(a) and NESHAP section 63.1962(a) provide that each MSW landfill owner or operator shall site active collection wells, horizontal collectors, surface collectors or other extraction devices at a sufficient density throughout all gas-producing areas using the applicable procedures in 60.759(a)(1), 63.1962(a)(1). The NSPS section 60.759(a)(1) and 63.1962(a)(1) also provide that a professional engineer shall certify that the collection devices within the interior along the perimeters achieve comprehensive control of surface gas emissions. The NESHAP section 63.1981(e)(1) provides that each MSW landfill owner or operator shall submit a revised design plan at least 90 days before expanding operations to an area not covered by the previously approved design plan (2004 GCCS design plan). The NESHAP section 63.1981(e)(2) provides that each MSW landfill owner or operator shall submit a revised design plan prior to installing or expanding the gas collection system in a way that is not consistent with the approved design plan (2004 GCCS design plan). Per the timeline provided by EGLE’s Materials Management Division (MMD), a landfill expansion has been granted since the 2004 GCCS Design Plan was submitted and approved by AQD/MMD: • 1997 Permit – BRL’s original permit which included Cells 1 through 10. • 2013 permit – This was a lateral and vertical expansion. Lateral expansion was 51.7 acres to the south, and vertical expansion was 47 acres. Cells 12, 13, 15, 11A and 11B were permitted (expansion to the south), and there was vertical expansion of the existing footprint. The permit included Cells 11 through 15, however, only Cell 11 and portions of Cell 12 have been constructed. Based on a comparison of the 2004 GCCS design plan and the 2021 GCCS construction map, it does not appear that Cells 11A, 11B, 12, 13, and 15 were included in the approved 2004 GCCS design plan. Additionally, comparing the 2004 GCCS design plan with the 2021 GCCS construction map, the well placement and density of wells in Cells 4, 5A,5B, 6A, 6B, 6C, 7A, 7B, 8, 9, 10 NE, 10 NW, and 10S are greater than, and in most cases located at positions within the landfillTim Church Brent Run Landfill Page 3 April 5, 2023 that are markedly different than, the well placement and density of wells in the 2004 GCCS design plan. By failing to submit a revised design plan for areas where waste-placement operations have expanded that are not covered by the previously approved design plan, and for failure to submit a revised design plan to ensure that all well placement is conducted according to a professional engineer-approved design plan, BRL is in violation of 40 CFR 63.1981(e)(1) and 40 CFR 63.1981(e)(2). Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 26, 2023, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence. Please also include a proposed date by which BRL will be able to submit an updated GCCS design plan to the AQD.

The roaster is a source of air contaminants. A fourth press was added to the total of three when the facility was initially permitted. Though the press itself is not a known source of air pollutants, its incorporation, along with the new roaster, debottlenecked the process that was permitted by PTI No. 61-20A. A second cyclone and stack were added to the meal cooler to dissipate heat from additional throughput. Lastly, a 10-silo meal loadout was being constructed to handle increased production. The lack of obtaining a PTI prior to installation of the roaster, meal loadout, and control equipment / stack to the meal cooler, results in a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451.

Stefko Deputy Assistant Secretary Marathon Petroleum Company LP 1300 South Fort Street Detroit, Michigan 48217 SRN: A9831; Wayne County Dear John S. Stefko: VIOLATION NOTICE The Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD) has reviewed the Relative Accuracy Test Audit (RATA) reports submitted by Marathon Petroleum Company LP (Marathon) located at 1300 South Fort Street in Detroit, Michigan. The initial RATA was performed on December 1, 2022, and retested on January 31, 2023. The Renewable Operating Permit MI-ROP-A9831-2012c requires the facility to monitor and record hydrogen sulfide (H S) emissions from EUCOKERFLARE-S1 with a 2 continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) that is installed, calibrated, operated, and maintained in accordance with MI-ROP-A9831-2012c, Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR), Part 60, Subpart Ja, and the quality assurance procedures of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix F. During the report review, staff determined the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUCOKERFLARE-S1 MI-ROP-A9831-2012c, FG- Failure to perform required (FG-FLARES-S1) FLARES-S1 SC VI. 12 quality assurance testing. 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix B and F The RATA reports were received on February 20, 2023. During report review, the AQD evaluated compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended; the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of ROP MI-ROP- A9831-2012c. A RATA of the CEMS was performed on December 21, 2022. Based on review, two of the nine RATA runs performed were deemed invalid due to the facility analyzer validations occurring during the runs. Seven of the runs are valid. 40 CFR Part 60, CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 800-662-9278John S.

The RATA was repeated and passed on January 31, 2023. In accordance with the 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix F Quality Assurance Procedures, a CEMS must be audited at least once each calendar quarter. A cylinder gas audit (CGA) may be conducted in three of the four quarters, but in no more than three quarters in succession. The RATA must be conducted at least once every four calendar quarters. CGAs were completed in the first, second, and third quarters of 2022; therefore, a RATA was required in the fourth quarter of 2022. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 5, 2023 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The submission included the summary excess emissions and monitor downtime reporting but did not include the data associated with the CGA. AQD staff were on-site on December 9, 2022 to observe RATA testing and review CEM records. During this time, MSC was unable to produce requested records of CEM data of emissions, daily calibrations, and quarterly cylinder gas audits including the audits reported as being performed on September 4, 2022. On December 14, 2022, MSC submitted additional information as a follow-up to the December 9, 2022 records requests. Upon the AQD review, the submission included the report of the audit but not the supporting CEM data. The AQD reiterated the request for tabulated CEM data and received a response on January 9, 2023. On January 26, 2023, MSC staff were informed that the CEMS data provided on January 9, 2023 did not include audit (CGA) data. AQD staff requested verification of a CGA being conducted, the correct date, and the tabulated CEMS data associated with the CGA activity to be provided on or before January 30, 2023. The AQD also requested revised quarterly CGA reports reflecting the correct audit date be submitted by February 3, 2023. The conditions of Permit No. MI-ROP-B2876-2019a require that these records be maintained and made available in a format suitable to the AQD upon request. MSC provided an e-mail at 5:57 PM on February 3, 2023, that stated the gas audit had occurred on September 7, 2022. MSC provided minute data for the 24-hour period but did not annotate the tabulated data that corresponded to the CEM activity as requested or make note of the approximate time the audit (CGA) activity was performed. The email submission did not include an ROP Certification form or a revised quarterly report. During the AQD review, the tabulated CEM data could not be correlated to the submitted reports. The tabulated CEMS data does not meet the minimum requirements of 40 CFR, Part 60, Appendix F, Procedure 1 and the 2022 Third Quarter CEMS audit is invalid. Therefore, the CEMS data are invalidated the beginning of the next successive quarter (October 1, 2022) until a valid audit is completed and passed. A valid quarterly audit is required in order for CEMS data to be utilized for compliance. Because CEMS quality assurance requirements are not met, the data beginning on October 1, 2022 is not acceptable to use for verification of compliance with emission limits. Please initiate additional actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 28, 2023 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The response should describe in detail an explanation of procedures implemented to provide the AQD with data in real time and in a format suitable for review, procedures that will be implemented to conduct audits (CGAs) that meet the minimum performance and acceptance criteria of Procedure 1, the QA Manual records associated with the 2022 Third Quarter audit, and a revised quarterly CEMS report that includes the monitor downtime from October 1, 2022 until completion of a valid audit.VIOLATION NOTICE Randy Lesniak Page 3 March 7, 2023 It should be noted that the facility is subject to the conditions of a Consent Order (AQD No. 2019-11) which was effective as of May 30, 2019.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Delta Solid Waste Management Authority's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N6035-2022. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUASBESTOS 40 CFR 61.154(b)(1); Special Inadequate warning signs Condition (SC) III.1.b posted for asbestos waste. EUASBESTOS 40 CFR 61.154(c); SC III.1.c Asbestos waste deposited in the North landfill is not being covered at the end of each operating day. EUASBESTOS 40 CFR 61.154(f); SC VI.2 Asbestos waste location map was not initially available for Cell 6 in the North landfill. EUFURNACE1 R.336.1213(3); SC VI.2, 3 Records were not kept of all fuels combusted on an hourly basis and daily visible emission checks are not being performed. FGLANDFILL-AAAA 40 CFR 63.1960(c)(4); SC V.3, Quarterly surface emissions VI.1.b monitoring surveys (SEMS) data is not being properly 40 CFR 63.1961(f), 40 CFR reviewed for methane 63.1981(h)(5); SC VII.4 exceedances, exceedances 1504 WEST WASHINGTON STREET • MARQUETTE, MICHIGAN 49855 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 906-228-4853David Lundquist 2 February 23, 2023 are not documented or reported, and corrective actions are not being taken and documented. FGLANDFILL-AAAA 40 CFR 63.1958(d)(1); SC I.1 Since the corrective actions specified in SC V.3 did not occur for notable exceedances, the methane exceedances are considered a violation of the methane emission limit in SC I.1. EUASBESTOS During this inspection, adequate warning signs for asbestos were not present. There was only one warning sign at the entrance of the South Landfill and none along the perimeter or at the North Landfill. This is a violation of process/operational restriction(s) specified in SC III.1.b of ROP number MI-ROP-N6035-2022. The conditions of ROP number MI-ROP-N6035-2022 require warning signs be displayed at all entrances and at intervals of 100 m (330 ft) or less along the perimeter. It was also observed and discussed during the inspection that asbestos waste was not being covered at the end of each operating day. During the inspection, it was observed that asbestos waste was not covered, and landfill staff relayed that they do not cover the asbestos daily as to not disturb it. Since Delta Solid Waste Management Authority is not meeting the no visible emission requirement in SC III.1.a, asbestos waste is required to be covered daily as specified in SC III.1.c of MI-ROP-N6035-2022. Asbestos is currently disposed of at one location in Cell 6. The facility was able to provide maps for previous asbestos disposal locations. However, initially an asbestos map of Cell 6 was not available as required in SC VI.2 of MI-ROP-N6035-2022. The facility had a consultant create a map of the Cell 6 disposal area after the inspection. EUFURNACE1 Delta Solid Waste Management Authority operates a 250,000 Btu/hr multi-oil furnace. During operation of the furnace, the facility is required to observe and record visible emissions from the furnace stack daily. Daily visible emissions checks are not being conducted or recorded. This is a violation of monitoring/recordkeeping requirements specified in SC VI.3 of MI-ROP-N6035-2022. Though Delta Solid Waste Management Authority is tracking oil usage by tank depth in inches, they are not monitoring and recording the gallons of all fuels combusted on an hourly basis as required in SC VI.2 in MI-ROP-N6035-2022. FGLANDFILL-AAAA Delta Solid Waste Management Authority is required to complete SEMS for methane as required in SC V.1-3. Landfill staff were initially unable to provide readings for the surveys, however, after working with the equipment’s manufacturer, the data was provided. Upon review of the data, exceedances were present in two datasets. Examples of exceedances include a reading of 505.4 on September 10, 2021, at 45.76500917 N, -87.12762933 W and a reading of 507.2 on August 29, 2022, at 45.76356583 N, -87.129647 W. No records of exceedances have been reported as specified in SC VII.4 of MI-ROP-N6035-2022. Since these exceedances have not been documented, none of the corrective actions, including re-monitoring as required in SC V.3, has occurred. Since none of the corrective actionsDavid Lundquist 3 February 23, 2023 required in SC V.3 have been taken, this is also a violation of SC I.1 which requires the collection system to be operated so that the methane concentration is less than 500 ppm above background at the surface of the landfill. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 15, 2023 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

Satisfactory operation of the secondary chamber or afterburner includes maintaining a minimum temperature of 1500°F. The applicant shall also equip and maintain the afterburner with a device to measure and record the operating temperature. During the month of February 2022, it was noted the thermocouple was removed from its proper position on February 1st, but the malfunction was not noticed until February 28th. This resulted in missed afterburner readings for the month of February 2022. Additionally, there were multiple temperature recordings of a negative value (-454 F) for 11 days during the month of September 2022. It appears the facility has an issue monitoring and maintaining the afterburner temperature on EUBURNOFF1. SC VI.1 of PTI 39-96A for EUBURNOFF1 states the permittee shall install, calibrate, maintain, and operate in a satisfactory manner a device to continuously monitor the temperature in the secondary chamber or afterburner portion of EUBURNOFF1 and record the temperature at least once every 15 minutes. The permittee shall keep the records on file at the facility and make the available to the Department upon request. It was discovered during the records review that from July 18, 2022, through December 31, 2022, the temperature of the afterburner was only recorded every 30 minutes. Therefore, the facility is not in compliance with SC VI.1 of PTI No. 39-96A and will need to begin recording the temperature at least once every 15 minutes. SC VI.2 of PTI 39-96A for EUBURNOFF1 states the permittee shall keep, in a satisfactory manner, records of the number of batches per 12-month rolling time period as determined at the end of each calendar month for EUBURNOFF1 before the requirements of SC VII.1 are met. The permittee shall keep the records on file at the facility, in a format acceptable to the AQD District Supervisor, and make them available to the Department upon request. No batch records were provided. The company did provide a spreadsheet of afterburner temperature recordings based on 30-minute increments from July 18, 2022, to December 30, 2022. It was apparent that temperatures highlighted in red were batches, however they were not easily distinguishable, and no monthly batch totals or 12-month rolling batch total were provided. The company should be able to present the data required in a clear and concise manner and is not currently in compliance with SC VI.2 of PTI No. 39-96A. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by February 27, 2023 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

After reaching permissive catalyst temperature for SCR startup, ammonia valve issues occurred. To address and abate future occurrences, a detailed SCR operation checklist for operators to pertorm prior to start-ups has been created by the BWL. This checklist will ensure that valving is correct and identify valve malfunctions prior to the start-up attempt. They have also created a NOx tracking log that the operators will fill out during unit start-up to ensure NOx emissions are being monitored and a timelier reaction to malfunctions that could lead to exceedances. The checklists and log sheet were included with the 4th Quarter Excess Emissions and Downtime Report for 2022. The Start-up and Shutdown Plan will be updated to include the checklists and log sheet. The updated Start-up and Shutdown Plan will be submitted to the AQD. The actions taken to correct the cited violation and updating the Start-up and Shutdown Plan appear appropriate to bring this facility back into compliance.

During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Non-fugitive enclosure Source-Wide Special Condition During the smoke test, IV.2; R 336.1910 leaks were observed at one of eleven natural I I I I draft openings (NDOs). During the smoke test, AQD staff observed smoke leaking through tears in the roll-up door between the lamination and extrusion zones. Portions of this door were covered with tape to seal tears, but not all tears were sufficiently covered. Source-Wide Special Condition IV.2 requires that the permittee not operate any portion of FGFACILITY unless the non-fugitive enclosure is installed, maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. Satisfactory operation requires that the non-fugitive enclosure is operating at a pressure lower than all adjacent areas so that air flows into the non- fugitive enclosure through all NDOs. NDO is defined as any opening that is not connected to a duct in which a fan or blower is installed. The leaks observed through the roll-up door indicate that the non-fugitive enclosure was not maintained and a pressure lower than adjacent areas, in violation of Special Condition IV.2. 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Colin Ferres Pregis LLC Page 2 February 3, 2023 During this test observation the AQD staff observed operation of polyethylene extrusion lines while the non-fugitive enclosure was not operating at a pressure lower than all adjacent areas.

The information provided indicated that uncontrolled potential emissions from the EU1200 process occurred for approximately one hour and forty-one minutes. Reported estimated emissions were 51 pounds Methanol, 20 pounds Ammonia, and 14 pounds additional VOC. The conditions of Corteva’s ROP limit the emissions of HAPS to less than 20 ppmv or 98% destruction. The VOC and acetone combined limit is 20 ppmv. The ammonia limit is 0.75 lb/hr. The EU1200 ROP conditions require Corteva to have a Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP) that describes actions to prevent, detect, and correct malfunctions or equipment failures resulting in emissions exceeding applicable emission limits. The current MAP does not address a scenario when both RTOs are unexpectantly unavailable and the damper valve on the inlet vent line to each RTO is closed. The December 30, 2022, Rule 912, 10-day written report included the dates the emission violations occurred, date the elevated emissions stopped, investigative findings as to the causes of the elevated emissions, and corrective actions taken eliminated the elevated emission. The facility determined that the uncontrolled emissions were in part due to the malfunction of a gas to air ratio valve. The final corrective action was not yet determined at the time of the December 30, 2022 report.

V.1 The permittee shall verify PM and PM10 emission rates from EUPULPDRYER. Emission testing results provided do not include PM10 emission rates. On December 1, 2022, a stack test was conducted which indicated that emissions from MSC Caro’s EUPULPDRYER exceeded the allowable emission rates specified in Rule 331 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, Table 31 (and Special Conditions (SC) I.1 and I.2 of MI-ROP-B2875-2019a). The allowed maximum emission rates of particulate matter is 0.10 pounds particulate per 1,000 pounds of exhaust gas and 27.7 pounds per hour. However, actual emissions were recorded to be 0.149 pounds particulate per 1,000 pounds of exhaust gas and 37.70 pounds per hour. This constitutes a violation of Rule 331, which prohibits emissions of particulate matter from any process or process equipment in excess of the maximum allowable emission rate listed in Table 31 or specified as a condition of an air use permit. Additionally, SC V.1 establishes the permittee shall verify PM and PM10 emission rates from EUPULPDRYER. Records provided did not include PM10 emission results.

During a routine quarterly EDR review for JGS, it was determined that the duct burner hourly average fuel flow rate was not being calculated correctly for certain hours. They determined the hourly average duct burner fuel flow to always be based upon 60 minutes, regardless of the actual duct burner operating time in the hour. They worked with their DAHS vendor and determined that the duct burner fuel flow hourly average calculation channel was pointing to the incorrect operating time, namely the combined cycle operating time instead of the duct burner operating time. JGS recalculated the emissions and notified 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-780-7690Janna Spitz Consumers Energy Company December 15, 2022 Page 2 EPA to update the emissions previously reported under 40 CFR Part 75 (Acid Rain and CSAPR) and Part 98 (Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule). JGS determined during this time that they had exceeded the 12 month rolling total CO mass emissions for May 2021, with 360.3 tons of CO, exceeding the limit of 360.0 tons. JGS then contacted AQD to update their 2022 MAERS submittal and submit revised deviation reports for 2021, showing this deviation. JGS has since updated their DAHS, so the emissions will be correctly calculated. They also have set an internal operational limit for the 12-month rolling total limits to a minimum of 1.0% of the emission limit. The actions taken to correct the cited violation appear appropriate to bring this facility back into compliance.

This letter was in response to a Violation Notice (VN) issued by AQD on October 13, 2022,. Furthermore, AQD staff reviewed publicly available perimeter monitoring data for the period from September 22, 2022, to December 6, 2022. The purpose of these reviews was to determine both whether the company adequately responded to the October 13, 2022, Violation Notice and to assess the Company’s compliance with the requirements of paragraph 5.5 of the Consent Judgment No. 2020-0593-CE (CJ), regarding perimeter emissions monitoring and response. The Company operates six air monitors at the perimeter of the landfill that sample for hydrogen sulfide and methane. The “Perimeter Methane Action Level” is defined in paragraph 4.2(U) of the CJ as a methane concentration of 40 parts per million measured as a rolling average over a 15-minute period. Paragraph 5.5 of the CJ outlines the steps that must be taken if any of the six air monitors collect data indicating an exceedance of the Perimeter Methane Action Level, including performing a root cause analysis, and taking steps as needed to correct the exceedance(s) and prevent future exceedance(s) from recurring. After reviewing the first round of exceedance data, AQD met with the Company on September 20, 2022, to discuss these exceedances, and the Company's attempts to identify the source of the methane. This meeting was onsite allowing AQD staff an opportunity to inspect an area near Monitor No. 4 and 5. AQD staff observed elevated methane emissions near these monitors. On November 3, 2022, AQD met with the Company to evaluate the ongoing Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedances. AQD staff again observed elevated methane levels coming from the ground very close to four of the perimeter monitors. Subsequent efforts by the Company after November 3, 2022, to address these exceedances also appear to have been unsuccessful based on continued Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedances. AQD staff have reviewed perimeter monitoring data through December 6, 2022, which showed that Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedances have been continuing. 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-780-7690David Seegert Arbor Hills Landfill Inc December 8, 2022 Page 2 Based on a review of the Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedance logs, perimeter monitoring data, and observations made on-site, AQD staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Type II sanitary landfill. Consent Judgement The Perimeter Methane Action No. 2020-0593-CE Level has been exceeded on Paragraph 5.5 E. more than 20 separate days from September 22, 2022, through December 6, 2022. The Company continues to fail to properly identify and correct the cause(s) of the exceedances within 48 hours and prevent reoccurrences. In addition, the Company’s VN response letter dated November 18, 2022, has been determined to be inadequate because it does not sufficiently address the cited violation, identify the specific actions the landfill has implemented to date in response to these exceedances, or provide a corrective action plan to address the ongoing and repeated exceedances. Specifically, the Company failed to identify where the methane that is causing the exceedances is coming from, what steps the Company has taken to mitigate/correct the source(s) of the methane that is impacting the monitors and what steps the Company is taking to prevent similar Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedances from occurring in the future. It should also be noted that the Company’s handheld methane detection device discussed in the VN response that the Company is using to conduct investigations is considered by the AQD to be inadequate based on a demonstration of its performance that occurred on November 3, 2022. Among other things, the device operates poorly at detecting methane on dense vegetative ground cover which comprise a significant portion of the area that the Company must investigate. Please be advised the Company may be subject to stipulated penalties for ongoing violations of the CJ. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by December 21, 2022. The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

FGHEATTREAT PTI 64-15D Special Condition The facility completed (SC) I.2 required stack testing on FGHEATTREAT on October 18-20, 2022. The reported three run test average is 0.69 lb/hour NH3 and the listed permit limit is 0.58 lb/hour. During Run 1 on October 17, 2022, the initial FTIR results showed much higher emissions than during the previous testing. The previous testing event recorded ammonia concentrations of about 24 ppm, which is approximately 0.7 pounds per hour (lb/hr) of ammonia. The results during the first run showed that the ammonia emissions spiked to more than 900 ppm and then slowly decreased over the course of the run to about 30-40 ppm. Based on the submitted results, this converts to 3.25 lb/hr of ammonia for Run 1. The large change in ammonia emissions observed during this testing event, compared to the previous testing, was discussed with the facility. The facility disclosed that in mid-June 2022, in response to the rising cost of ammonia and with the intent of streamlining the FNC process, the facility changed the formula used in the furnace for the FNC process. Because the results of Run 1 indicated an exceedance of the ammonia limit, the facility chose to abandon the test event and return to the original formula for the FNC process and restart the testing. The Department informed them that this would be considered a change in operation and would need 3 separate test runs, using the original FNC process formula, to demonstrate compliance with the emission limit. Run 2, using the original FNC, began on October 18, 2022. The three runs were completed on October 20, 2022. Test results were received by the Department on November 30, 2022. Based on the report submitted, the three-run test average is reported as 0.69 lb/hour of ammonia. The listed permit limit in FGHEATTREAT for ammonia is 0.58 lb/hour. This is an exceedance of the permitted ammonia limit by about 16%.E.J. Stumph Woodworth, Inc.

The facility is located at 1609 Biddle Avenue in Wyandotte, Michigan. Staff reviewed the semi-annual deviation report to determine BASF Corporation-Chemical Plants' compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Michigan Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules (Rules); and the conditions of the facility’s ROP number MI-ROP- B4359-2003b. From the ROP semi-annual deviation report, staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Polyols Plant – MI-ROP-B4359-2003b; Emissions of TDI EUPOLTKFARM – This Section 2; Table C-2.3 exceeded the emission emission unit includes the EUPOLTKFARM; Special limit of 0.0031 pounds per toluene diisocyante (TDI) Condition (SC) II.B.1.1 hour in up to 109 storage tank TK-536 and unloading instances from TDI loading/unloading.

Hourly TDI emissions from EUPOLTKFARM In 2022, the ROP semi-annual deviation report indicates that 1.16 pounds of TDI were emitted over 42 unloading instances that totaled 376 minutes. Assuming unloading events are similar in quantity and duration results in an average of 0.028 pounds of TDI emitted during each unloading event, which averaged 9 minutes in duration. As 0.028 pounds TDI emissions exceeds the hourly emission limit of 0.0031 pounds TDI, each of the 42 unloading events represents an individual violation of the TDI emission limit at SC II.B.1.1 during the hour in which the unloading occurred. From January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2021, the report indicates that 2.03 pounds TDI were emitted over 67 unloading instances that totaled 657 minutes. Assuming unloading events are similar in quantity and duration results in an average of 0.030 pounds of TDI emitted during each unloading event, which averaged 10 minutes in duration. As 0.030 pounds TDI emissions exceeds the hourly emission limit of 0.0031 pounds TDI, each of the 67 unloading events represents an individual violation of the TDI emission limit at SC II.B.1.1 during the hour in which the unloading occurred. SC II.B.1.1 is established pursuant to Rule 702(a), which reads as follows: Rule 702. A person who is responsible for any new source of volatile organic compound emissions shall not cause or allow the emission of volatile organicJoseph Dellamorte BASF Corporation - Chemical Plants Page 3 November 28, 2022 compound emissions from the new source in excess of the lowest maximum allowable emission rate of the following: (a) The maximum allowable emission rate listed by the department on its own initiative or based upon the application of the best available control technology. Because this maximum allowable emission rate was exceeded, this is a violation of Rule 702(a). Annual Emissions from EUPOLTKFARM From January 8, 2022 through May 1, 2022, the report indicates that 1.16 pounds TDI were emitted. 1.16 pounds exceeds the annual emission limit of 0.18 pounds TDI per SC II.B.1.2. From January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2021, the report indicates that 2.03 pounds TDI were emitted. Assuming the 67 unloading instances are evenly distributed across the five calendar years results in an average of 0.406 pounds TDI emitted during each calendar year. As 0.406 pounds TDI exceeds the annual emission limit of 0.18 pounds of TDI, this represents five violations of SC II.B.1.2. SC II.B.1.2 is established pursuant to Rule 702(a). Because this maximum allowable emission rate was exceeded, this is a violation of Rule 702(a). Reporting of EUPOLTKFARM Deviations Although TDI emissions exceedances have occurred since 2017, the 67 instances which occurred prior to 2022 were not reported until the semi-annual deviation report for the reporting period of January 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022. Semi-annual reports are certified by a responsible official that “based on information and believe formed after reasonable inquiry, the statements and information in the certification are true, accurate, and complete”. It appears that inquiry related to TDI emissions was incomplete. This is a violation of EUPOLTKFARM IV.1-3 for semi-annual and annual reporting of deviations and compliance, as well as of general conditions 19, 20, 21.b, and 23 regarding reporting of the emissions deviations and reasonable inquiry. The period of violation begins with the first semiannual report received September 15, 2017 and continues through the semiannual report and annual certification received March 15, 2022. Pressure drop recordkeeping across fabric filter F-410C in EUPOLCONV From March 11, 2021 through September 15, 2021 the report indicates actual data was overwritten by a value of “5.0”. This is a violation of the recordkeeping requirement specified in SC III.A.3.4 of EUPOLCONV of ROP number MI-ROP-B4359-2003b.

This process is also subject to the federal New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Standards of Performance for Grain Elevators. These standards are found in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 60, Subpart DD. On November 3, 2022, AQD received a complaint regarding corn chafe (“bees wings”) falling on resident’s vehicles, boat, and property. Following the complaint, AQD staff visited the residence and viewed corn chafe on the resident’s vehicles, boat, and property. Carrollton Road and Sugar Road were lined in the reddish colored material. On November 7, 2022, AQD continued the complaint investigation and viewed fugitive dust, loose corn chafe, blow north from the parking lot southwest of the scale towards Carrollton Road. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the dust fallout observed was of sufficient intensity, frequency, and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 (and General Condition 6 of PTI No. 124-14). On November 4, 2022, AQD performed a complaint investigation and viewed truck unloading operations and railcar loading operations. Both operations exhibited opacity exceeding the five (5) percent standard for particulate matter required in 40 CFR 60.302(b)(2). Truck unloading was occurring without at least one door on the truck receiving pit closed. The entrance door to the pit is only being closed halfway. Additionally, AQD staff observed the manual cleanout of the track side dust bin that plugged during operations. During follow up conversation on November 7, 2022 with Gavilon Grain LLC staff, the cause being due to full dust bins was discussed. The unplugging caused corn chafe to “snow” down in Carrollton. During this time the associated baghouse was not able to collect particulate. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, 451 (and Special Condition (SC) IV.1. of EU-BASEMENTBELT in PTI No. 124- 14), which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.

On July 18, 2022, the AQD sent MSC BC a Violation Notice citing violations discovered as a result of the review of reports and the June 14, 2022 site visit. The Violation Notice requested your written response by August 8, 2022. A copy of that letter is enclosed for your reference. MSC BC submitted a response to the Violation Notice on August 5, 2022. Based on the June 14, 2022 site visit and your response to the Violation Notice, MSC BC has not demonstrated that adequate Continuous Emission Monitoring System (CEMS) operation and quality assurance/quality control are established or implemented, including operating, recordkeeping, and oversight, for the CEMS at MSC BC. The written response failed to include or inadequately address several items including but not limited to the following: • MSC BC has not enumerated the CEMS elements that are critical to show compliance with CEMS quality assurance requirements. MSC BC provided segments of a CEMS operating manual. The manual includes hardware and software operation but does not detail the requisite quality assurance or quality control procedures and their associated acceptance criteria. 401 KETCHUM STREET • SUITE B • BAY CITY, MICHIGAN 48708 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-894-6200Kelly Scheffler Michigan Sugar Company – Bay City Page 2 November 14, 202 • A complete quality control manual for the facility’s specific CEMS was not provided.

Technical Program Unit’s (TPU) Lindsey Wells, was on site to observe the testing. When a gas probe was placed in the stack, the readings for VOC numbers were determined to be higher than the previous stack test results and would exceed the VOC emission limit as established in FGOXID2 in MI-ROP-B8570-2015b. The facility verbally reported to EGLE that the probe was showing emissions of about 14.4 pph VOC and the destruction efficiency was below the 98% required by the permit. The permitted VOC limit for FGOXID2 is 4.5 pph. In discussion with EGLE field staff, the facility concluded that there was likely a failure somewhere within the RTO associated with FGOXID2. The facility, with input from EGLE field staff, decided to postpone the testing until the pollution control equipment could be repaired and emissions were more representative of routine normal operating conditions. In email communication from the facility, dated November 8, 2022, it was reported that the RTO continues to not function properly. Based on original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recommendations, the facility made adjustments to recirculate treated gas back into the RTO and VOC measurements now read 9.74 pph. The facility reports they are working to schedule repairs to the RTO and will continue to operate the RTO, as above, minimizing excess emissions, and tracking emissions compared to the facility-wide VOC limit. The facility also reported the RTO associated with FGOXID2 was put back online on October 12, 2022, after the most recent shutdown and equipment service. During the shutdown, the sealing/gasket material they believe is causing the failure would have been evaluated.Harley Darnell The Anderson's Marathon Holdings, LLC Page 3 November 10, 2022 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by December 1, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

(Company) located at 10690 West Six Mile Road, Northville, Michigan. The purpose of this review was to determine the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Consent Judgment No. 2020-0593-CE (CJ), regarding perimeter monitor exceedances, and timely analysis and corrective actions. The Company operates six air monitors at the perimeter of the landfill that sample for hydrogen sulfide and methane. The “Perimeter Methane Action Level” is defined in paragraph 4.2(U) of the CJ as a methane concentration of 40 parts per million measured as a rolling average over a 15-minute period. Paragraph 5.5 of the CJ outlines the steps that must be taken if any of the six air monitors collect data indicating any exceedance of the Perimeter Methane Action Level, including performing a root cause analysis, and taking steps as needed to correct the exceedance(s) and prevent future exceedance(s) from recurring. AQD staff reviewed Action Level exceedance logs submitted by the Company on September 12, 2022, and October 5, 2022, for the period from June 11 to September 20, 2022. The September 12th log noted that there were exceedances of the Perimeter Methane Action Level on several consecutive days in August that were thought to have been caused by a cell liner tie in problem between newly constructed waste disposal Cells 6A and existing Cell 4E, which was subsequently repaired on August 29, 2022. However; Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedances continued into September.

After reviewing the exceedances data, AQD met with the Company on September 20, 2022, to discuss these exceedances, and the Company’s attempts to identify the source of the methane. The September 20, 2022, meeting was on-site, allowing AQD staff and the Company to jointly inspect an area near Monitor Nos. 4 and 5. During the inspection, AQD staff observed a north/south oriented band of elevated methane approximately 650 feet long, passing as close as 20 feet from the monitors. As indicated to the Company at the time of the inspection, this area was suspected to be one of the main causes of the exceedances of the Perimeter Methane Action level. Based on a review of the Perimeter Methane Action Level exceedance logs and observations made on-site, AQD staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Type II sanitary landfill.

Box 15217 Lansing, Michigan 48823 SRN: N5991, Genesee County Dear Rocky Tondo: VIOLATION NOTICE On September 16, 2022, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), received the “Regulatory Analysis for Replacement of Engine #7”. The Engine #7 (EUENGINE7) is located at Energy Developments Grand Blanc, 2361 West Grand Blanc Road, Grand Blanc, Michigan. The purpose of this analysis is to demonstration compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; Source-Wide Permit to Install (PTI) number MI-PTI-N5991-2016; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N5991-2016. The following was demonstrated: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUENGINE7 - Caterpillar Rule 201 The facility replaced a 3520 landfill gas-fired landfill gas-fired engine reciprocating engine using the “like-for-like” located in Plant 2 policy, and the regulatory applicability of the replacement landfill gas- fired engine is different than EUENGINE7. There is “like-for-like” (engine swap) policy and procedure, AQD-023: Replacement of Engines, Compressors, or Turbines as Part of a Normal Maintenance Program at Landfill Gas-To-Energy Facilities. The “Regulatory Analysis for Replacement of Engine #7” dated March 26, 2019, documents the engine swap evaluation process done by Energy Developments Grand Blanc per policy and procedure AQD-023. With the September 16, 2022, submittal, it is noted that an incorrect date was included in the previous version of the engine swap memo that was provided to AQD. This has been CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

EUENGINE7 is operating under the requirements in Source-Wide PTI number MI-PTI- N5991-2016, and this process is also subject to the federal New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) as specified in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 60, Subparts A and JJJJ, and the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts A and ZZZZ. These federal regulations are requirements in the Source-Wide PTI number MI-PTI-N5991- 2016 and ROP number MI-ROP-N5991-2016. The replacement engine for EUENGINE7 is not subject to 40 CFR Part 60, Subparts A and JJJJ which is a change in the regulatory applicability. If the regulatory applicability of the replacement engine is different, this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the replaced engine. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by October 25, 2022, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The conditions of MI-ROP- A3569-2017a limit the emissions of formaldehyde to 20 lbs. per month. Additionally, the records provided demonstrate that actual emissions of VOC from the EU-QA-15 were 3,644 lbs. during the month of November 2021 when painting metal parts only. The conditions of MI-ROP-A3569-2017a limit the emissions of VOC to 2000 lbs./month/booth when painting metal parts. Thirdly, the records provided demonstrate that t-butyl peroxyacetate usage was 6802.35 lbs. during the 12-month rolling period ending in September 2021. The conditions of MI- ROP-A3569-2017a limit the emissions of t-butyl peroxyacetate to 6,694 lbs. per 12-month rolling period. Each of these exceedances were brought to Axalta’s attention during record review. In response, Axalta provided new records indicating the limits were not exceeded and an explanation for the change in reported formaldehyde and VOC emissions. According to Axalta, the formaldehyde emissions were calculated incorrectly initially and the coating usage throughput for booth QA 15 was inaccurately reported for November 2021 due to operator error. Axalta changed the material usage for t-butyl peroxyacetate in the new records, however, did not mention or provide an explanation for changing the t-butyl peroxyacetate usage. Axalta has submitted incorrect and inconsistent records on several occasions over multiple inspections. This is a serious and chronic issue at this facility. As a result, compliance was evaluated based on the records initially received for the inspection conducted April 5, 2022. Axalta shall address the inaccuracies and inconsistencies in records and the non-compliance discovered during review of the records in the violation notice response. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by October 24, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates theJoseph Marecic Axalta Coating Systems, LLC Page 3 October 3, 2022 violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The company responded to the violation on August 11, 2021. With regards to FGPROCESSLINE SC I.1 and FGFACILITY SC I.3; in the response received August 11, 2021, the company indicated that during the month of August 2020, Quala received a customer request to increase the amount of virgin butyl cellosolve used during the final rinse temporarily. The emission exceedances between September 2020 and May 2021 were due to the temporary increase in butyl cellosolve for the fourth rinse in August 2020. The violation response also states that in working with the customer, the amount of butyl cellosolve requested by the customer in the final rinse was determined to be unsustainable. The response also states that Quala Environmental team plans on discussing the modifications to the cleaning process and chemicals used with EGLE permit writers in the near future. The VOC emissions from August 2020 would no longer be calculated in the 12-month rolling total starting with the 12-month period ending August 2021. However, based on records received for the August 25, 2022 inspection, Quala still exceeded the 12-month rolling VOC emission limit in FGPROCESSLINE SC I.1 for the 12-month periods ending August 2021, September 2021, October 2021, November 2021, December 2021, January 2022, February 2022, March 2022, April 2022, and May 2022. The 12-month rolling VOC emission exceeded the corresponding limit in FGFACILITY SC I.3 for the 12-month periods ending July 2021, August 2021, September 2021, October 2021, November 2021, December 2021, and January 2022. Please note that the 12-month rolling VOC emission in July 2021 also exceeds the major source threshold (100 lbs.) for VOC. In addition, I have not received any indication that Quala discussed modifications to the cleaning process and chemicals used with EGLE permit writers. With regards to FGPROCESSLINE SC III.3.b and c: the company stated in the response that you are having maintenance personnel installing the level sensor on the heel waste trough and a vapor control valve on the heel waste tote. During the on-site inspection conducted August 25, 2022, I did not see a level sensor on the heel waste trough or a vapor control valve on the heel waste tote. Quala personnel verified that the level sensor and vapor control valve were not installed. On September 12, 2022, JD Noble, Quala, sent photos showing that the old heel drain station was removed and a newly designed trough that utilizes gravity to drain was installed. The new configuration does not utilize the vacuum pump. To resolve the violation of FGPROCESSLINE SC III.3.b and c, Quala will need to either install level sensor and vapor control valve on the heel waste system to comply with PTI 79-03C or modify PTI 79-03C to reflect the new configuration and remove the vacuum pump and the requirements for the level sensor and vapor control valve.Charles Boyd Quala Page 4 September 26, 2022 Also, during the inspection, several tanks containing VOC materials had been left open when not in use. Although the company immediately corrected the practice when pointed out, Quala needs to implement a work practice plan to minimize the introduction of fugitive VOC emissions. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by October 17, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 310-05D, FG-IEB16, III.1, which states, “The permittee shall not combust waste in any unit in FG-IEB16 unless a minimum temperature of 1600°F and a minimum retention time of 1.0 seconds in the respective secondary combustion chamber are maintained.” This also constitutes a violation of R 336.1910, which states, “An air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law.” Furthermore, the permittee failed to maintain, operate, and control emissions in a satisfactory manner from EU-CREMATORY8. This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 310-05D, FG-IEB16, IV.1, which states, “The permittee shall not operate any crematory in FG-IEB16 unless its respective secondary combustion chamber with afterburner is installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner.” This also constitutes a violation of R 336.1910, which states, “An air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law.” Per a review of records received on August 2, 2022, the permittee failed to complete all required records in a format acceptable to the AQD District Supervisor because cremation logs contained false handwritten temperature records compared to the continuous temperature chart records (e.g., every handwritten record indicates 1650°F whereas temperature chart records indicate different values, some of which were as low as 1500°F), time records do not indicate a.m. or p.m. or switch from 12-hour to 24-hour time, plus some of the time records on the logs and temperature charts are unreadable or incomplete. This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 310-05D, EU-CREMATORY1, VI.1, EU-CREMATORY2, VI.1, and FG-IEB16, VI.1, which states, “The permittee shall complete all required records in a format acceptable to the AQD District Supervisor by the 15th day of the calendar month, for the previous calendar month, unless otherwise specified in any monitoring/recordkeeping special condition.” Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by September 21, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

On April 12, 2022, EGLE MMD staff were conducting an inspection of Fritz Enterprises. During their inspection, they observed numerous pieces of paper emitted by the wet scrubber which, along with a cyclone, is the air pollution control device for EU-ZBOX. MMD’s Evin Maguire noted that some of the papers left the site. In the professional judgement of AQD staff, the waste papers landing offsite were sufficient to constitute a violation of Rule 901(b) of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which prohibits unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. The large number of papers passing through the scrubber uncontrolled also indicate a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. The April 12, 2022, observation of waste papers leaving the wet scrubber also demonstrates that waste materials were not being stored in an acceptable manner. This is a violation of PTI No. 92-00B, FG-SHREDDEROP, SC III.7, which requires in part that all waste materials generated by FG-SHREDDEROP shall be contained and disposed of or recycled in an acceptable manner in compliance with all applicable state and federal rules and regulations.Sam Amer Fritz Enterprises, Incorporated Page 3 August 29, 2022 During the April 20, 2022, joint inspection by EPA and AQD, it was observed that the pressure drop gauge and liquid flow indicator for the wet scrubber which controls EU-ZBOX were inoperable. This is a violation of PTI No. 92-00B, EU-ZBOX SC IV.1, which requires that the wet scrubber be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, as well as a violation of EU-ZBOX SC VI.1, which requires the permittee to install, maintain and operate a pressure drop gauge and a liquid flow indicator on the wet scrubber portion of EU-ZBOX. It is also a violation of Rule 910, which, as previously noted, requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Lastly, on April 20, 2022, it was noted that some fluff materials were not stored in 3- sided bunkers. This is a violation of PTI No. 92-00B, FG-SHREDDEROP SC III.6, which requires that the permittee shall store all non-ferrous, non-metal, and waste materials (i.e., fluff) generated by FG-SHREDDEROP in 3-sided bunkers.

This violates PTI No. 108-20, FGCRUSHING Special Condition (SC) V.1, which states: “Within 60 days after achieving the maximum production rate, but not later than 180 days after commencement of trial operation, the permittee shall evaluate visible emissions from EUPROCESS, as required by federal Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources, at owner's expense, in accordance 40 CFR Part 60 Subparts A and OOO. Visible emission observation procedures must have prior approval by the AQD Technical Programs Unit and District Office. The permittee must submit a complete report of the test results to the AQD Technical Programs Unit and Lansing District Office within 45 days following the last date of the test.” Also, a notice of relocation was not provided for the portable mineral crushing facility, in advance of its relocation from the previous site to the current site, at 3026 Robert T. Longway Boulevard, Flint. From the permit to install review process, the AQD is aware that there are only 2 processing sites which the crushing process is known to travel to, and the home base location. However, PTI No. 108-20, FGCRUSHING SC VII.3 requires the following: “The permittee shall submit notification to the AQD District Supervisor at least 10 days prior to relocating FGCRUSHING to this site; however, if electronic notification is used, the notification shall be submitted at least 5 days before the change of location or 2 business days if the owner provided the AQD District Supervisor a list of anticipated operating locations for that calendar year at least 10 days before the change of location and if the proposed location is on that list.” The lack of a relocation notification is considered a violation of the above permit condition.

Cole Boulevard Flint, Michigan 48505 SRN: B6179, Genesee County Dear Raj Minhas: VIOLATION NOTICE On May 17, 2022, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), received copies of recordkeeping from Lockhart Chemical Company (Lockhart Chemical) located at 4302 James P. Cole Boulevard, Flint, Michigan. These records had been requested by the AQD, in follow up to the April 13, 2022, joint inspection of Lockhart Chemical by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the AQD, and the continuation of the inspection on May 5, by AQD. These documents were reviewed for the purpose of determining Lockhart Chemical's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 26-16. As a result of reviewing records dating from April 1, 2021, through March 31, 2022, staff observed the following violations: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUOxidation216 PTI 26-16, Special Condition On December 16, 2021, a (SC) IV.1; Rule 910 temperature chart recording for the thermal oxidizer showed a temperature drop of 210 degrees F below the 1400 degrees F required minimum temperature. EUCalcium PTI 26-16, SC VI.1 Required records of pressure drop for the EUCalcium bag filter were not available. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O. BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-284-6651Raj Minhas Lockhart Chemical Company Page 2 August 18, 2022 Temperature charts for the thermal oxidizer associated with EUOxidation216 were received from April 1, 2021, through April 1, 2022. Out of 195 dates of operation of EUOxidation216, the date of December 16, 2021, showed a sudden but brief drop of the thermal oxidizer temperature to 1190 degrees F. This is a violation of PTI 26-16, SC EUOxidation216, IV.1, which requires that the thermal oxidizer be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner. Satisfactory operation of the thermal oxidizer is defined, in part, as maintaining a minimum temperature of 1400 degrees F in the thermal oxidizer. This also constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Additionally, the EUOxidation216 under/over temperature controller, or at least its display, did not appear to be working on April 13, 2022, as the setpoint or SP fluctuated from as low as 1070 degrees F, to as high as 1350 degrees F. This does not appear to be a Rule 910 violation at this time, because this controller is not known to the AQD to be part of an air- cleaning device. However, the AQD requests that Lockhart provide an explanation of the function of this controller as it relates to EUOxidation216. Lastly, the requested records covering the time period of April 1, 2021, through March 31, 2022, did not include records of pressure drop for EUCalcium. This is a violation of SC PTI 26-16, EUCalcium, SC VI.1, which requires that the permittee monitor and record, in a satisfactory manner, the pressure drop for the bag filter once during each batch. The issues identified in this Violation Notice result from a review of recordkeeping which was completed after the recent Violation Notice of June 27, 2022, had already been sent by AQD. We have received Lockhart Chemical’s response to this first Violation Notice on August 5, 2022, and are reviewing the corrective action program described therein. The Lockhart Chemical response letter received on August 5 indicates, in part, that for FGLime540-541, no records were kept on the maintenance of the lime silo, but they will be available, moving forward. This past lack of documentation was a violation of PTI No. 26- 16, FGLime540-541, SC VI.4, which requires keeping a record of actions taken under the lime storage silo preventive maintenance program. This has been addressed, however, by the written commitment to keep the required record, and does not need to be addressed in your response to this Violation Notice. The issues identified in this VN result from a review of recordkeeping which was completed after the recent VN of June 27, 2022, had already been sent by the AQD. We have received Lockhart Chemical’s response to this first VN on August 5, 2022, and are reviewing the corrective action program described therein.

EUCREMATORY1 PTI No. 11-21, The permittee failed to keep, in a EUCREMATORY1, VI.3 satisfactory manner, daily records of the time (duration of burn), description, and weight of the charge combusted in EUCREMATORY1, as required by PTI No. 11-21, EUCREMATORY1, SC II.2. EUCREMATORY1 PTI No. 11-21, The permittee failed to keep, in a EUCREMATORY1, VI.5 manner satisfactory to the AQD District Supervisor, secondary combustion chamber temperature records for EUCREMATORY1, as required by PTI No. 11-21, SC VI.2. 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Daren A. Krause Krause Veterinary Clinic Page 2 August 16, 2022 During this inspection, Krause Veterinary Clinic informed staff that the permitted charge limit of 300 pounds per charge had been exceeded. The exact date and weight are unknown due to non-compliant recordkeeping, which is cited below. This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 11-21, EUCREMATORY1, II.2 which states, “The permittee shall not charge more than 300 pounds per charge in EUCREMATORY1, where charge is the total weight of the material placed in the incinerator to be combusted.” During this inspection, Krause Veterinary Clinic was unable to produce daily records of the time (duration of burn), description, and weight of the charge combusted in EUCREMATORY1. This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 11-21, EUCREMATORY1, VI.3, which states, “The permittee shall keep, in a satisfactory manner, daily records of the time (duration of burn), description and weight of the charge combusted in EUCREMATORY1, as required by SC II.2. The permittee shall keep all records on file and make them available to the Department upon request.” During this inspection, staff determined that Krause Veterinary Clinic failed to record, in a satisfactory manner, the temperature in the secondary combustion chamber of EUCREMATORY1 on a continuous basis because the records of multiple cremations overlapped. This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 11-21, EUCREMATORY1, VI.5, which states in part, “The permittee shall keep, in a manner satisfactory to the AQD District Supervisor, secondary combustion chamber temperature records for EUCREMATORY1, as required by SC VI.2.” Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by September 6, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

Keith Walker II, General Manager of Operations Edw. C Levy Co. 8800 Dix Avenue Detroit, Michigan 48209 SRN: B4243, Wayne County Dear J. Keith Walker II: VIOLATION NOTICE On June 28, 2022, July 9, 2022, and July 10, 2022, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted investigations in response to complaints of fallout in Detroit and Melvindale. For each complaint, fallout allegedly occurred between the evening of the date prior to the complaint and the morning of the complaint. The scope of the investigations included the operations at Edw. C. Levy Plant 6 (Levy Plant 6) located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigations was to determine Levy Plant 6 compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the administrative rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP-B4243-2016. The investigations were performed by Jonathan Lamb, EGLE-AQD. During each investigation, Jonathan Lamb observed fallout on vehicles or other property and samples of the fallout were collected and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Lab results indicate the composition of the fallout samples collected on June 28, July 9, and July 10, 2022, is consistent with materials associated with slag processing at Levy Plant 6. As a result, the following violation was observed during each investigation: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Steel slag handling and General Condition 12(b) Detection of fallout beyond the processing operations of ROP No. MI-ROP- facility's property line, attributable to B4243-2016 the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable R 336.1901(b) interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. R 336.1901(b) states, in part: “A person shall not cause or permit the emission of an air contaminant in quantities that cause injurious effects to human health and property, or the unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.” CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 313-456-4700J. Keith Walker II Edw. C.

In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the fallout was of sufficient magnitude to constitute a violation of General Condition 12(b) of ROP No. MI-ROP-B4243-2016 and R 336.1901(b) during each investigation. Copies of the lab reports are enclosed. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by August 26, 2022 (which coincides with 14 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The purpose of this inquiry was to investigate a recent complaint which we received on June 23, 2022, regarding fugitive dust and fallout attributed to ReConserve of Michigan’s operations located at 170 Angell St., Battle Creek. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EU-SIZING R 336.1901 (RULE 901) Recurring fallout was observed offsite, on a neighboring business employee’s cars. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the dust fallout that were observed were of sufficient intensity, frequency and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The AQD staff observed dust fallout covering Sherriff Goslin employee and company vehicles on the following dates: 11/12/21, 2/24/22, 3/16/22, 4/12/22, 5/4/22, and 6/23/22. It appears the dust is originating from the stack of a cyclone in the finished feed bay, installed under exemption R 336.1285(2)(f). The cyclone was installed on 6/24/2016 to abate indoor fugitive dust. After the start-up of the facility, it was discovered that a fan used in EU-SIZING at the finish mill operations was creating excess fugitive emissions within EU-FINISHED FEED as the material was transferred from the mill to the finished feed bay. The facility now ducts the fan into the cyclone, so the fines drop out through a rotary valve located closer to the fines pile. The facility has attempted to rectify the continuing dust issue through the use of a fabric barrier on the stack and installation of a manual damper between the mill and the cyclone when fine dust is created. However, the nuisance dust issue continues to persist, and other avenues should be explored to fully address the issue. 7953 ADOBE ROAD • KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 269-567-3500Scott Allread ReConserve of Michigan, Inc.

Staff reviewed the report to determine Cliffs’ compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-A8640-2016a. Based on review of the aforementioned report, the following air pollution violations were observed: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated EUBOF ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640- The quarterly COMS opacity 2016a, Section 1, General report for the 1st quarter of Condition (GC) 11; 2022 contained 67 exceedances of the 20% 6 R 336.1301(1)(a) minute average opacity limit at the ESP stack. EUBOF ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640- The ESP has ongoing 2016a, Section 1, EUBOF, SC exceedances of the 20% 6 IV.1; minute average opacity limit as measured and recorded by the COMS.

Per Consent Decree Civil Action No. 15-cv-11804, VI.B.20, Cliffs is required to submit quarterly COMS data reports. Reports include each instance in which the 6-minute block average reading of opacity by the COMS exceeds 20%. For the 1st quarter of 2022, after correcting for the exception allowed within R 336.1301(1)(a): “one 6 minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity” and excluding calibration checks and concurrent Method 9 readings indicating compliance, there were 67 exceedances reported. Each of these exceedances is a violation of R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, GC 11. ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, EUBOF, SC IV.1 requires that the permittee shall not operate EUBOF unless the ESP is installed and operating properly. Similarly, R 336.1910 requires that an air-cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the AQD rules and existing law. The ESP is an air-cleaning device. Based on the continuing opacity exceedances, the ESP is not being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. As such, Cliffs is in violation of MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, EUBOF, SC IV.1, and R 336.1910.

On September 15, 2021, the AQD sent Kasson Sand and Gravel a Violation Notice citing a violation for installing new equipment without first updating PTI 346-99. The violation was discovered as a result of the inspection and your written response was requested. The response was received by the AQD on October 6, 2021 and stated that Kasson Sand and Gravel would undertake identifying all of the new equipment and update the PTI as necessary. Following the receipt of that letter I have corresponded by email with Mr. John Berscheit of Reith-Riley Construction Co. Inc. several times in order to resolve the outstanding violation. Most recently, though I had received draft electronic versions of the updated permit, I again requested that the PTI updates be submitted in hard copy to both the AQD Cadillac District Office and the AQD Permits Section by July 18, 2022. As of this Date, the AQD still has not received an original signature hard copy of this permit update. Additionally, some of the new equipment is subject to the requirements of 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart OOO, which includes visible emissions testing of the equipment and submittal of the test results within 30 days of the last test date. Based on my conversations with Mr. Berscheit, I understand that the required testing was conducted in October 2021, and June and July 2022. Therefore, I also requested that the test results be provided by August 6, 2022. 120 WEST CHAPIN STREET • CADILLAC, MICHIGAN 49601-2158 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 231-775-3960Bob Noona Kasson Sand and Gravel Page 2 July 26, 2022 Please be advised that continued operation of the new equipment, without an update to the PTI, is an ongoing violation of R 336.1201 and PTI 346-99.

Failure to respond to this second violation notice in a way that will resolve the outstanding cited violation may result in escalated enforcement action by the AQD.

The purpose of this odor observation was to investigate ongoing complaints which AQD continues to receive regarding foul odors attributed to Crimson Holding, LLC’s operations.

AQD staff were able to verify these odors were in violation of Rule 901(b). The AQD staff detected odors in a business/residential area near the company. The odors were impacting residents and nearby commercial businesses. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the odors that were observed were of sufficient intensity, frequency and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901(b) of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. On May 26, 2022, the AQD issued a Violation Notice for similar violations. As noted during this recent investigation, these nuisance odors are continuing and have not been adequately addressed by the company. Crimson Holdings has completed some facility revisions to address ongoing odors, including installation of a carbon filter on the Dissolved Air Flotation Room, vertical alignment of the solids tank vent, and air emission stack testing. However, significant odors continue to impact the community, and Crimson Holdings has not yet completed corrections to the main facility stack – which AQD believes is the primary source of nuisance odors. AQD strongly advises Crimson Holdings, LLC to work as quickly as possible to implement the corrections to the facility’s main stack.

During June 2021, the VCB process vented to SV82002 for more than 216 hours while in the purification/distillation step. The purification/distillation step did not vent to the 963THROX while venting to SV82002. Between June 18 and June 29, 2021, Dow bypassed 963THROX and exhausted emissions from EU82 to SV82002 in excess of the allowed 186 hours per month. The bypass occurred due to inadequate start-up procedures and monitoring of SV82002 vent status. 401 KETCHUM STREET • SUITE B • BAY CITY, MICHIGAN 48708 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-894-6200Kristin Soto The Dow Chemical Company Page 2 July 18, 2022 Between June 18 and June 29, 2021, the bypass line to SV82002 was open for an extended period without the facility being aware, and in violation for more than 30 hours over the 186 hours allowed operating limit intended to control emissions of toxic air contaminants. Dow did not provide notification of the bypass hour limitation exceedance to EGLE until September 14, 2021. Rule 912 (R 336.1912) of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, requires the owner or operator of a source, process, or process equipment to provide notice and a written report of an abnormal condition, start-up, shutdown, or a malfunction that results in emissions of any air contaminant continuing for more than two hours in excess of a standard or limitation established by any applicable requirement. On July 13, 2022, EGLE staff explained to Dow staff that the allowed 186 hours per month bypass from the VBC process to SV82002 is a limitation under Rule 912 and future emissions of an air contaminant for more than two hours in excess of a limitation should be reported. When releases occur or emission, material, or operating requirements are not met, Dow should include an evaluation of Rule 912 applicability as part of the sites compliance review. This process is also subject to the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Miscellaneous Organic Chemical Manufacturing (MON). These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart FFFF. Dow has confirmed that all process and storage tank vents are Group 2 vents per the MON MACT and no reporting or NOCs updates are required. Dow has previously submitted the dates the violations occurred, an explanation of the causes and duration of the EU82 excess venting violation, and whether the EU82 excess venting violations are ongoing.

The purpose of this inquiry was to investigate a recent complaint which we received on June 23, 2022, regarding fugitive dust and fallout attributed to ReConserve of Michigan's operations located at 170 Angell Street, Battle Creek. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EU-SIZING R 336.1901 (Rule 901) Recurring fallout was observed offsite, on a neighboring business employee's cars. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the dust fallout that were observed were of sufficient intensity, frequency and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The AQD staff observed dust fallout covering Sherriff Goslin employee and company vehicles on the following dates: 11/12/21, 2/24/22, 3/16/22, 4/12/22, 5/4/22, and 6/23/22. It appears the dust is originating from the stack of a cyclone in the finished feed bay, installed under exemption R 336.1285(2)(f). The cyclone was installed on 6/24/2016 to abate indoor fugitive dust. After the start-up of the facility, it was discovered that a fan used in EU-SIZING at the finish mill operations was creating excess fugitive emissions within EU-FINISHED FEED as the material was transferred from the mill to the finished feed bay. The facility now ducts the fan into the cyclone, so the fines drop out through a rotary valve located closer to the fines pile. The facility has attempted to rectify the continuing dust issue through the use of a fabric barrier on the stack and installation of a manual damper between the mill and the 7953 ADOBE ROAD • KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 269-567-3500Scott Allread ReConserve of Michigan, Inc.

The purpose of these inspections was to determine Lockhart Chemical’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 26-16. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUREACTOR304 PTI 26-16, EUReactor304, A temperature gauge for Special Condition (SC) IV.2, Reactor 304’s condensate Rule 910 tank was not in place, during the inspection. EUCALCIUM PTI 26-16, EUCALCIUM, The bag filter for the bin Special Condition (SC) IV.1, vent filter was not Rule 910 maintained in a satisfactory manner, per the inoperable pressure drop gauge. EUCALCIUM PTI 26-16, EUCALCIUM, SC The pressure drop indicator IV.2, Rule 910 was not being maintained.

FGFACILITY PTI 26-16, FGFACILITY, SC Some identifying labels on IV.1 equipment were deteriorated enough to be illegible or were missing. PTI 26-16 EUReactor304 SC IV. 2. requires the permittee to equip and maintain the condenser with a received condensate temperature indicator in the condensate collection tank. However, during the April 13, 2022 inspection, a temperature indicator for the condenser could not be found. In your June 17, 2022 email to the AQD, it was explained that the temperature gauge was broken, and had been removed at some point between March 31 and April 13, 2022, with no production taking place during that time. The absence of the temperature indicator on April 13, 2022, constitutes a violation of the requirement. During the inspection, the bag filter for EUCALCIUM, a process to produce natural calcium sulfonate was observed to have an inoperable pressure drop gauge. This violates PTI 26- 16, EUCALCIUM, SC IV.1, because the bag filter was not maintained in a satisfactory manner, per the inoperable pressure drop gauge. PTI 26-16, EUCALCIUM, SC IV.2 requires the permittee to equip and maintain the bag filter with a pressure drop indicator. Because the pressure drop gauge was inoperable, this condition was not being met. Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 requires an air-cleaning device to be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner. EPA and AQD staff observed several air pollution control equipment deficiencies (listed above) which constituted violations of Rule 910. During the inspection, EPA and AQD staff observed EUOxidation216 in operation. The thermal oxidizer temperature fluctuated during operation, as displayed digitally and on aRaj Minhas Lockhart Chemical Company Page 3 June 27, 2022 circular paper temperature chart. EPA staff photographed an instance where the temperature dropped to 1390 degrees F. This is a violation of PTI 26-16, SC IV.1, which requires the vent gases from the reactor to be burned in a thermal oxidizer and the thermal oxidizer to be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner. Satisfactory operation of the thermal oxidizer includes maintaining a minimum temperature of 1400 degrees F. If temperature fluctuations are part of normal operation, the overall temperature setpoint of the device should be elevated, to prevent any temperature decreases from dropping below 1400 degrees F. EPA and AQD staff were informed that the hardcopy recording feature of the vent stream flow monitor for EUOxidation216 had not been working for the past 2 years. This is a violation of PTI 26-16, EUOxidation216, SC IV.3 and VI.3, failing to satisfactorily maintain and operate a device to monitor and record the vent stream flow from the reactor to the thermal oxidizer. EPA’s Valeria Apolinario and AQD staff climbed to a platform atop a lime storage silo, EULimeTank540, to observe the bin vent filter. AQD had inquired as to the last time maintenance had been done on the bin vent filter, and I was told it had been two years. Upon raising the lid of the bin vent filter cabinet, the cabinet was seen to be almost completely filled with lime, and no bag filter was visible. This is a violation of PTI 26-16, FGLime540-541, SC III.1, because the lime storage silo’s preventative maintenance program was not being maintained. The above issue also violates PTI 26-16, FGLime540-541, SC IV.1, which requires the lime storage tank not to be operated unless the bin vent filter is installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner. The buildup of lime inside the bag filter cabinet demonstrates that the tank has been operated in the past, without the bin vent filter being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 requires an air-cleaning device to be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner. EPA and AQD staff observed several air pollution control equipment deficiencies (listed above) which constituted violations of Rule 910. Additionally, the AQD has received, on May 13, 2022, a record of maintenance on April 25, 2022, under the lime storage silo preventative maintenance program. This record is required to be kept by PTI 26-16, FGLime540-541, SC VI.4. Please provide preventative maintenance records for the past 5 years for the lime storage silo. Lastly, identification labels on some process or process equipment appeared to be missing, or deteriorated, as in the case of the EUREACTOR 304 condenser, whose sign had weathered to the point where it only read, “Condenser Pot” instead of what was believed to have once read “304 Condenser Pot.” This violates PTI 26-16, FGFACILITY, SC IV.1. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by July 19, 2022, (which coincides with 21 calendar daysRaj Minhas Lockhart Chemical Company Page 4 June 27, 2022 from the date of this letter).

The purpose of the inspection was to determine Crimson Holdings compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; and Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended; the Air Pollution Control Rules; Permit to Install 38-06; and to investigate recent complaints received on May 23 and 24, regarding foul odors attributed to Crimson Holdings operations. On May 26, 2022, the AQD sent Crimson Holdings a Violation Notice (VN) citing violations discovered as a result of the inspection and requested the facility’s written response by June 2, 2022. AQD received Crimson Holdings response on June 2, 2022, and provided a preliminary response of receipt on June 3, 2022. Upon further review and internal discussions, the AQD does not agree with the facility’s assessment that they are not in violation of Michigan air pollution control rule 901(b) because of protections afforded under the Michigan Right to Farm Act (RTFA). AQD has received a determination from the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) who have indicated that the RTFA does not apply to this facility as the facility is not considered a farm operation as defined in RTFA. MDARD did indicate the Michigan Agricultural Processing Act 381 of 1998 may apply, however, conformance with this Act does not affect the application of other state and federal statutes. Furthermore, AQD continues to believe that a Rule 201 violation occurred with the change in method of operation from producing powdered milk to powdered egg. AQD requests that Crimson Holdings provide either more detail as to why the company believes their existing permit #38-06 covers this change, a demonstration that this change can meet an acceptable Permit to Install exemption, or the submittal of an acceptable Permit to Install application. Additionally, it was requested that Crimson Holdings take steps to immediately characterize/estimate the types and amounts of any odorous or potential toxic chemical compounds being emitted by this facility. Crimson Holdings has submitted a performance test plan (protocol) for proposed testing. AQD will be responding to the proposed test protocol in a separate letter. AQD is encouraged by the company’s proposed schedule to test next week and requests additional updates as plans are finalized. Furthermore, Crimson Holdings has started using an odor neutralizer product to mitigate odors. AQD has received a citizen complaint about the impacts of the use of this odor neutralizer.

If specific ingredient information cannot be provided, AQD strongly recommends that Crimson Holdings discontinue use of the odor neutralizer(s) immediately. In the VN response, Crimson Holdings included an action plan for how to address the odors and cited violations. AQD requests that Crimson Holdings provide a detailed compliance plan that includes the following: • Updates and schedules for all action items included in the VN response; • Detailed timelines and schedules for the changes to the stack diameter and orientation; • Submittal of a Permit to Install (PTI) application that addresses the items identified by Crimson Holdings in their VN response as well as the Rule 201 violation (if an acceptable PTI exemption demonstration is not provided) and a timeline for when this will occur; • A detailed schedule for installation of air control for the ventilation of the dissolved air flotation (DAF) system room; • Detailed and specific information about the ingredients of the odor neutralizer(s) being used; • Detailed information regarding the specifications of the baghouse as requested by AQD on June 3, 2022; • A detailed schedule for the change in the carbon exhaust orientation on the sludge tank; and • Detailed information regarding any additional steps the facility implements to address odors. Please be advised that continued violations of Rule 901(b), the Company’s existing permits, and/or applicable administrative Rule 201 exemptions for their process equipment may result in AQD referral of cited violations for escalated enforcement action.

Lilley Road Canton, Michigan 48188 SRN: N2689, Monroe County Dear Christina Pearse: VIOLATION NOTICE On May 10, 2022, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an inspection of Vienna Junction Industrial Park Sanitary Landfill and Vienna Junction Energy, LLC, (Vienna Junction) located at 6233 and 6506 Hagman Road, Erie, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine Vienna Junction's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N2689-2020; the Federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 40 CFR, Part 63, Subpart AAAA (NESHAP), and the New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills that commenced construction, reconstruction or modification after July 17, 2014, 40 CFR, Part 60, Subpart XXX. AQD requested and received records as part of the inspection, based on review of records received staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments FGENCLOSEDFLARE-XXX MI-ROP-N2689-2020, Unable to determine (enclosed combustor of landfill Condition I.

June 3, 2022 Page 2 FGENCLOSEDFLARE-XXX MI-ROP-N2689-2020, Monitoring /recordkeeping Condition VI. 2. (b) shows excessive number of events during which the NESHAP 40 CFR parameter boundaries 63.1959(b)(2)(iii), 40 CFR established during the most 63.1983(c)(1)(i) recent performance test were exceeded. Average combustion temperature was more than 28 degrees C (82 degrees F) below the average combustion temperature during the most recent performance test at which compliance with 40 CFR 60.762(b)(2)(iii) was determined. FGENCLOSEDFLARE-XXX MI-ROP-N2689-2020, Failed to promptly report Condition VII. 1. deviations pursuant to General Conditions 21 and 22 of Part A. This process is also subject to the federal NSPS Subpart XXX and the federal NESHAP Subpart AAAA. Vienna Junction’s most recent NSPS compliant performance testing was conducted on September 16, 2020. This set the required minimum EUENCLOSEDFLARE temperature at 1606 degrees F. The ROP and NSPS identifies exceedances as all 3-hour periods of operation during which the average combustion temperature was more than 28 degrees C (82 degrees F) below the average combustion temperature during the most recent performance test at which compliance was determined (1606 F- 82 F = 1524 F). Their ROP requires record keeping and reporting of exceedances. AQD requested Vienna Junction submit records showing compliance with the required minimum temperature. Vienna Junction submitted records showing multiple exceedances during the reported period of September 2020 through February 2022. Vienna Junction failed to promptly identify these exceedances, the cause(s), and report them as deviations during this time. Vienna Junction records indicate the three-hour rolling enclosed flare temperature data recorded during the period exceeded the tested minimum temperature over 100 hours on approximately 10 occasions, over 200 hours on 4 occasions, and 621 hours on one occasion. As part of the record keeping submittal Vienna Junction stated the cause of the exceedances was the failure to set the low temperature shutdown at a compliant level, therefore the flare was not shutting down when the temperature dropped below 1524 degrees F. Vienna Junction stated they discovered the minimum temperature was set to 1400 degrees F. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by June 25, 2022, (which coincides with 21-calendar days from the date ofChristina Pearce Republic Services, Inc.

These communications, by email and by telephone, were to discuss Mold Masters' compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 368-06D, and Consent Order AQD No. 2020-19. On February 15, 2022, the AQD sent Mold Masters a Violation Notice citing violations discovered as a result of these communications and requested your written response by March 8, 2022. A copy of that letter is enclosed for your reference. A response was received from Mold Masters on March 14, 2022. The response referred to the current Mold Masters PTI as PTI 368-06C, which was voided by AQD on January 29, 2021, upon issuance of the current PTI 368-06D. Additionally, emissions reported in an attached spreadsheet were broken down by flexible group from PTI 368-06C, and not broken down by flexible group as in PTI 368-06D. Furthermore, not all violations were addressed by the VN response letter, as described below. PTI No. 368-06D, Special Condition (SC) III. 4 requires that within 180 days from commencement of trial operation of the Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) associated with EUFlockBooth5, Mold Masters submit, implement, and maintain a malfunction abatement plan (MAP), as described in Michigan Air Pollution Control Rule 911. The Mold Masters VN response letter did not address the subject of the MAP, and AQD has still not received a MAP, as of today’s date. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

Stack testing prior to the VN had not met the minimum required DE. The Mold Masters VN response letter indicated that a retest was anticipated to take place the week of May 30, 2022. Please continue to keep AQD informed of the date of the retest, so that AQD staff may be present. Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 requires that an air- cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. A passing stack test would demonstrate compliance with Rule 910. PTI No. 368-08D, SC V. 3 requires that within 180 days from commencement of trial operation of EUFlockBooth5, the permittee shall verify that the associated enclosure meets the definition of PTE or verify capture efficiency of the enclosure by testing. The Mold Masters VN response letter received on March 14, 2022, indicated that testing was currently planned for late May 2022. Please keep AQD apprised of plans for the testing, so that AQD staff can be present to witness the test. On April 4, 2022, the AQD emailed you a PDF copy of PTI 368-06D, and a link to the Consent Order AQD number AQD 2020-19. The AQD also asked questions about the VOC emissions reported for the operating year of 2021, as described below. In PTI 368-06D, the flexible group FGFlock is different from the flexible group FGFlock, which was in the previous version of the permit, PTI 368-06C. In the VN response letter received on March 14,2022, Mold Masters reported 2021 VOC emissions broken out according to the old flexible group. In the April 4, 2022 email from AQD, Mold Masters was asked to provide VOC emissions broken out for the current flexible group, FGFlock. No response was received. Please report 2021 VOC emissions under FGFlock per PTI 368-06D. The emission unit EUFlockBooth5 is identified in PTI No. 368-06D. In the 2021 spreadsheet, EUFlockBooth5 emissions were not reported. Please demonstrate what 2021 VOC emissions were for EUFlockBooth5. Please be advised that failure to respond in writing and identifying actions Mold Masters will take or has taken to resolve the cited violations may result in escalated enforcement action by the AQD. Please provide a program for compliance, as well as information related to 2021 VOC emissions for FGFlock and EUFlockBooth5 by June 3, 2022, which corresponds to 14 days from the date of this letter.Kirk Payne Mold Masters Company Page 2 May 20, 2022 Please submit the written response to EGLE, AQD, Lansing District, at Constitution Hall, P.O.

The commencement date of trial operation of the RTO was communicated to me today, to be February of 2021. As of February 1, 2022, AQD has not received a MAP from Mold Masters, in violation of this requirement. PTI No. 368-06D, SC IV. 3 requires that Mold Masters not operate EUFlockBooth5 unless the RTO and associated Permanent Total Enclosure (PTE) are installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, with satisfactory operation of the RTO including, but not limited to, a minimum volatile organic compound (VOC) destruction efficiency (DE) of 95 percent (by weight). It was reported to AQD that preliminary stack testing on January 31, 2022, resulted in a DE of 94-95 percent, and that in September 2021, a preliminary stack test resulted in a DE of 74 percent. These values do not indicate satisfactory operation of the RTO, and thus, are in violation of this condition. The failure to operate the RTO in a satisfactory manner also constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. PTI number 368-06D, SC V. 2 requires that within 180 days from commencement of trial operation of the RTO associated with EUFlockBooth5, Mold Masters shall verify the VOC DE of the RTO by testing. Stack testing did not occur within the required 180 days, in violation of this condition. PTI No. 368-08D, SC V. 3 requires that within 180 days from commencement of trial operation of EUFlockBooth5, the permittee shall verify that the associated enclosure meets the definition of PTE or verify capture efficiency of the enclosure by testing. Neither verification that the associated enclosure meets the definition of PTE, nor verification of the capture efficiency of the enclosure by testing were completed during the required 180 days in violation of this condition. PTI No. 368-06D, SC VII. 1 requires that within 30 days after completion of the installation, construction, reconstruction, relocation or modification of the PTE and RTO associated with EUFlockBooth5, Mold Masters or their authorized agent shall notify the AQD District Supervisor, in writing, of the completion of the activity. Completion of the installation, construction, reconstruction, relocation, or modification is considered to occur no later than the commencement of trial operation of the PTE and RTO associated with EUFlockBooth5. AQD has not received written notification and therefore Mold Masters is in violation of this requirement. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 8, 2022, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct theMr. Kirk Payne Mold Masters Company Page 3 February 15, 2022 violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

ADDITIONAL COMPLIANCE CONCERNS Water Spray Control Device During the inspection of May 5, 2022, AQD staff observed the operation of a nonmetallic mineral crushing plant while the water spray control device was inoperable. AQD staff was informed that on the morning of May 5, Contour Development discovered that the water supply filter case had failed. PTI No. 111-21, FGCRUSHING, IV.1 states, “The permittee shall not operate any portion of FGCRUSHING unless the water sprays for each crusher and each screen are installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner to control visible emissions.” Also, R 336.1910 states, “An air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law. The AQD observed zero visible emissions from FGCRUSHING during this inspection. The water spray control device was not needed to control visible emissions in a satisfactory manner during this inspection. Because zero visible emissions were observed, the AQD did not cite the water spray control device malfunction. Please be advised that failure to control visible emissions per PTI No. 111-21, and FGCRUSHING, IV.1 may result in a violation notice. PTI No. 111-21 It should be noted that PTI No. 111-21, FGCRUSHING, IX.1 states, “This permit shall be terminated on or before January 1, 2023.” If Contour Development Group wants to continue to operate the FGCRUSHING facility past January 1, 2023, then Contour Development Group must submit a timely application for a permit modification. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by June 6, 2022, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

Michigan Avenue, Lansing, Michigan. The purpose of the inspection was to determine Sparrow Health System's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; and Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended; the Air Pollution Control Rules, and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 294-06. On October 25, 2018, the AQD sent Sparrow Health System a Violation Notice (VN) citing violations discovered as a result of the inspection and requested your written response by November 15, 2018. A copy of that letter is enclosed for your reference. Along with violations of PTI number 294-06, for having rain caps installed on boiler exhaust stacks, EUGENERATOR5 was identified as having been installed without first having a PTI approved by the AQD, which is required by Rule 201 of the administrative rules. On November 16, 2018, the AQD received your response from Brent Yager, at that time, Electrical Manager at Sparrow Health System. Violations related to PTI number 294-06 were addressed by a commitment to remove rain caps from boiler exhaust stacks by March 1,2019. He also indicated that a PTI application would be submitted for EUGENERATOR5, by January 1, 2019, along with a facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration. On March 28, 2019, Sparrow Health System’s consultant, Duncan Mein, PE, Supervising Environmental Engineer of WSP, contacted the AQD to discuss resolving the outstanding VN. The matter of rain caps on boiler exhaust stacks from the VN was identified as having been resolved. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

Our AQD permit engineer Ambrosia Brown and myself had a conference call with him on May 20, 2020, to discuss deficiencies with the application, and he indicated he would send a summary of that call, which was not subsequently received. On April 6, 2021, I emailed guidance to Duncan, on making a stationary source determination, for determining what, at the Sparrow campus, must be considered part of the single stationary source. On April 29, 2021, I discussed with him by email the possibility of meeting to discuss this issue, and he appeared open to this. No further response was received, though. On January 4, 2022, the AQD emailed you, to attempt to move forward on resolving the outstanding violation of Rule 201 for EUGENERATOR5. Subsequently, on January 18, 2022, a Teams meeting was held with the consulting firm WSP’s Duncan Mein, PE, and Samuel Pendyala, to discuss submittal of a PTI application. Representing the AQD was our permit engineer Ambrosia Brown, and myself. Since the date of this meeting, a PTI application for EUGENERATOR5 has not been received. A program for compliance with Rule 201 may include a completed PTI application for the EUGENERATOR5. An application form is available by request, or at www.michigan.gov/egle/about/organization/air-quality/air-permits/new-source-review/guidance. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant.

Exhausts are water spray type wet dust collector controlled by water spray per line. type wet dust collectors. Regarding the first item in the table above: according to the Michigan Air Emissions Reporting System, EUROUGHLINE3 was installed in March of 2018. During the inspection on August 17, 2021, Flat Rock Metal provided a determination that EUROUGHLINE3 is exempt from obtaining a Permit to Install per Rule 285(2)(l)(vi)(C). This exemption is for surface grinding of metals where external emissions are controlled by a fabric filter that, for all specified operations with metal, is preceded by a mechanical precleaner. The determination included a demonstration that the equipment did not have actual emissions greater than Rule 119(e) significance levels. Thus, the equipment was not precluded from using an exemption under Rule 278(1)(b). On August 31, 2021, Flat Rock Metal further demonstrated that the potential to emit of EUROUGHLINE3 is below new source review major source thresholds. This meant the equipment was not precluded from using an exemption due to Rule 278(1)(a). However, the potential to emit of EUROUGHLINE3 is greater than 100 tons per year of PM 10 and PM 2.5.1 Therefore, upon the installation of EUROUGHLINE3, the facility became a Title V major source per Rules 211(1)(a)(ii)(E) and (F). Within 12 months of commencing operation as a Title V major source, a stationary source is required to apply for a renewable operating permit (ROP), per Rule 210(4). AQD has not received an ROP application from Flat Rock Metal. Regarding the second item in the above table: AQD does not consider that Rule 285(2)(l)(vi)(C) is an appropriate exemption for EUROUGHLINE3. Rule 285(2)(l)(vi)(C) is for “Equipment that has externally vented emissions controlled by an appropriately designed and operated fabric filter collector that, for all specified operations with metal, is preceded by a mechanical precleaner.” EUROUGHLINE3 is controlled by a water spray type wet dust collector; not a fabric filter as indicated in Rule 285(2)(l)(vi)(C). Unless another exemption is applicable, the construction of EUROUGHLINE3 requires a Permit to Install under Rule 201(1). Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. 1 EUROUGHLINE3 emissions are controlled with a water spray type wet dust collector. Potential to emit only considers air pollution control equipment as part of the equipment’s design if this physical limit is legally enforceable, per the definition of Potential to Emit in Rule 116(n).Greg Zang, Flat Rock Metal, Inc. Page 3 May 11, 2022 Regarding the third item in the above table: during the inspection on August 17, 2021, Flat Rock Metal explained that FGROUGHLINES are each controlled by one water type spray wet dust collector. The lines were permitted under PTI No. 71-98 with two water type spray wet dust collectors each. Unless exempt, this modification of control equipment used in FGROUGHLINES requires a Permit to Install per Rule 201(1).

The purpose of this inquiry was to investigate a recent complaint which we received on May 4, 2022, regarding fugitive dust and fallout attributed to ReConserve of Michigan's operations located at 170 Angell Street, Battle Creek. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EU-SIZING R 336.1901 (Rule 901) Recurring fallout was observed offsite, on a neighboring business employee's cars. EU-SIZING R 336.1910 Cyclone is not being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the dust fallout that were observed were of sufficient intensity, frequency and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The AQD staff observed dust fallout covering Sherriff Goslin employee and company vehicles on the following dates: 11/12/21, 2/24/22, 3/16/22, 4/12/22, and 5/4/22. It appears the dust is originating from the stack of a cyclone in the finished feed bay, installed under exemption R 336.1285(2)(f). The cyclone was installed on 6/24/2016 to abate indoor fugitive dust. After the start-up of the facility, it was discovered that a fan used in EU-SIZING at the finish mill operations was creating excess fugitive emissions within EU-FINISHED FEED as the material was transferred from the mill to the finished feed bay. The facility now ducts the fan into the cyclone, so the fines drop out through a rotary valve located closer to the fines pile. When the feed entering the cyclone is too wet, the feed clogs the bottom of the cyclone, leading to dust fallout exiting the stack. This finished material is then blown onto neighboring cars, creating a nuisance. 7953 ADOBE ROAD • KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 269-567-3500Scott Allread ReConserve of Michigan, Inc.

Additionally, the records Beacon Park Finishing provided from January 1, 2022 to March 8, 2022 show that the surface tension readings are not taken every four hours as required in the Chrome NESHAP. • Supervisory personnel who are responsible for inspection, maintenance, and repair of these air cleaning devices are not identified in the operation and maintenance plan for all scrubber systems. • The operation and maintenance plan recordkeeping sheet for Control D contains a box stating, “Pressure drop monitors calibrated.” An initial next to this box was erased on all of the check sheets. • The Ongoing Compliance Status Reports submitted by Beacon Park Finishing did not contain all of the information required in 40 CFR 63.347(g)(3), including: A certification by a responsible official indicating whether or not the operation o and maintenance plan was followed or was not followed. This section was left blank. An explanation of the reasons for not following the provisions of the operation o and maintenance plan, an assessment of whether any excess emission and/or parameter monitoring exceedances are believed to have occurred, and a copy of the report(s) required by 40 CFR 63.342(f)(3)(iv) documenting that the operation and maintenance plan was not followed. 40 CFR 63.342(f)(3)(iv) requires that these incidents be recorded and reported to the AQD district supervisor via phone call within two working days after commencing actions inconsistent with the operation and maintenance plan. This report shall be followed by a letter to the AQD district supervisor within seven working days after the end of the event. AQD did not receive any notifications from Beacon Park Finishing. A description of any changes in monitoring, processes, or controls since the o last reporting period. Mr. Popat Patel, who was responsible for maintaining daily pressure drop records for days that the nickel-chrome line was operated, left the facility in late 2020/early 2021. The Ongoing Compliance Status Report should detail when key personnel change. These changes in key personnel should also be noted in the operation and maintenance plan. The number, duration, and a brief description for each type of malfunction o which occurred during the reporting period, and which caused or may have caused any applicable emission limitation to be exceeded. The report must also include a description of actions taken by an owner or operator during a malfunction of an affected source to minimize emissions in accordance with 40 CFR 63.342(a)(1), including actions taken to correct a malfunction. Mr.Mr. Garrett Kanehann Beacon Park Finishing, LLC Page 5 April 5, 2022 Patel stated that this scrubber is not operated during very cold temperatures because of water lines freezing. This type of malfunction must be reported in the Ongoing Compliance Status Report. In your response to this violation notice, please include the following information: • An explanation of how Beacon Park Finishing will maintain appropriate records for daily pressure drop of Control D, daily liquid flow rate Control B and Control C, quarterly inspections of the chrome scrubber, and surface tension measurements for chrome tank 4A every four hours of tank operation. Be sure to identify the appropriate personnel who will be responsible for taking these readings at the appropriate time intervals. • A procedure for updating these procedures when key personnel change. • An updated operation and maintenance plan which identifies supervisory personnel. Included in this operation and maintenance plan, please include a procedure to modify the plan when these key supervisory personnel change. • An explanation of how often the pressure drop monitors for the CMP scrubber should be calibrated. • A method for identifying the operating status of a process each calendar day in the pressure drop, liquid flow rate, and surface tension records. This may include writing “DID NOT OPERATE”, “zero”, or an equivalent statement in the operating hours column on the recordkeeping sheets for days that a process is not operated. • An updated ongoing compliance status report including all information required in 40 CFR 63.347(g)(3). During the March 8, 2022 inspection, AQD spoke with facility staff regarding the composite mesh pad (CMP) scrubber associated with the nickel-chrome plating line. Beacon Park Finishing staff stated that this CMP scrubber is sometimes not operated properly (no washdowns) on very cold days due to lines freezing. Additionally, daily records of pressure drop were not maintained between February 5, 2021 and October 25, 2021. Also, during the March 8, 2022 inspection, AQD spoke with facility staff regarding the wet scrubber (Control B) associated with the zinc plating line. Beacon Park Finishing staff stated that this scrubber was removed sometime in 2021 due to roof damage. The facility has had trouble scheduling a contractor to re-install the scrubber system after repairing the roof. The zinc electroplating line was operating during this inspection without a scrubber installed. Google Earth Pro aerial photos indicate the scrubber was not on the roof in March 2021. Google Earth Pro aerial photos shows that the scrubber was there in March 2020. Failing to properly operate the CMP system and Control B during operation of the associated plating tank constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.Mr. Garrett Kanehann Beacon Park Finishing, LLC Page 6 April 5, 2022 In the response to this violation notice, include a plan that will address how to properly operate Control D at all times, including during very cold temperatures. In addition, please include a schedule and plan for the installation of Control B. During the March 8, 2022 inspection, it was noted that Beacon Park Finishing had installed and commenced operation of unpermitted equipment at this facility. Specifically, Beacon Park Finishing installed several grinding/buffing stations which are ducted outdoors without a fabric filter (cyclone filter only). The AQD staff advised Beacon Park Finishing on March 8, 2022, that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the grinding/buffing process equipment. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Alternatively, Beacon Park Finishing may install and operate the grinding/buffing process in accordance with R336.1285 (2)(l)(vi) by either; ensuring emissions from the process are released only into the general in-plant environment or by having external emissions vented to an appropriately designed and operated fabric filter. Beacon Park Finishing staff statements and Google Earth Pro Aerial photo evidence indicates Beacon Park Finishing removed the wet scrubber used to control HCl emissions from the zinc plating line prior to March 19, 2021. Without this scrubber, the facility’s PTE for a single HAP (HCl) exceeds 10 tons/year, making the facility a major source of HAP emissions. The facility currently does not have an ROP. In addition, on February 22, 2022, Beacon Park Finishing submitted emissions records with the 2021 Michigan Air Emissions Reporting System (MAERS) report indicating actual uncontrolled HCl emissions from the zinc plating line were 14.82 tons. R 336.1211(a)(i)(A) of the Michigan Administrative Code (MAC) requires sources that directly emit, or has the potential to emit, 10 tons per year or more of an individual hazardous air pollutant (HAP) obtain a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP). R 336.1210 prohibits the operation of a source required to have an ROP except in compliance with all applicable terms and conditions of an ROP, unless a timely and administratively complete ROP application has been received. Per R 336.1210(4), for a stationary source that is or becomes a major source, as defined by R 336.1211(1)(a)(i) to (iii), an administratively complete application shall be considered timely if it is received by the department not more than 12 months after the stationary source commences operation as a major source or otherwise becomes subject to the requirements to obtain a renewable operating permit as a major source.Mr. Garrett Kanehann Beacon Park Finishing, LLC Page 7 April 5, 2022 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 26, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Box 70 Lapeer, Michigan 48446 SRN: B2507, Lapeer County Dear Mr. Fowler: VIOLATION NOTICE On February 9, 2022, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an inspection of DT Fowler Manufacturing Inc. (DT Fowler Manufacturing) located at 930 S. Saginaw Street, Lapeer, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine DT Fowler Manufacturing's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and to investigate a recent complaint which we received on February 8, 2022, regarding (fugitive dust attributed to DT Fowler Manufacturing's operations. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Portable wood shredder Rule 901(b) Fallout of shredded wood fibers detected in sample collected west of the DT Fowler Manufacturing site. Prior to arrival at the site, AQD staff collected a sample of particulate matter from snow adjacent to a public sidewalk. The location was a short distance to the west of the abandoned rail line that is west of the DT Fowler Manufacturing site. The particulate sample was submitted to EGLE’s contract lab, Merit Laboratories, Inc. A copy of the lab report is attached to this letter. It concludes, in part, “Stereomicroscopy and Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) shows that this sample contains ragged fiber clusters of various sizes that match sawdust and have the optical characteristics of sawdust (60%). Microchemical analysis on the yellow, fibrous clusters was positive for lignan, a significant component of wood.” CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O.

Some of the sawdust particles have resin on them, partially obscuring the wood. The particles turned ruby, red with phloroglucinol followed by concentrated HCl. This is a positive test for lignin, a significant component of wood.” In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the fallout which was detected off of DT Fowler Manufacturing’s site constitutes a violation of Rule 901(b) of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. Rule 901 of the administrative rules reads as follows: “Rule 901. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other rule, a person shall not cause or permit the emission of an air contaminant or water vapor in quantities that cause, alone or in reaction with other air contaminants, either of the following: (a) Injurious effects to human health or safety, animal life, plant life of significant economic value, or property. (b) Unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.” Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 13, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Microchemical analysis on the yellow, fibrous clusters was positive for lignan, a significant component of wood. The sample also contains small, isotropic squares (20%) many of which have anisotropic material and particles attached. These attached materials maybe salts and/or glues, which suggest that they may be from plywood or particle board. Other observed particles include Calcite (1%), Pollen (2%), Sand/quartz (5%) and plant fibers (3%). Discussion The wood particles are clusters of fibers which match the optical properties of mechanically ground wood, some small particles had rows “bordered pits” and “Maltese crosses”. Some of the sawdust particles have resin on them, partially obscuring the wood. The particles turned ruby, red with phloroglucinol followed by concentrated HCl. This is a positive test for lignin, a significant component of wood. Small, isotropic squares (66um2 to 300 um2) may be from plywood and/or particle board since many have anisotropic particles (wood) and smears (salts and/or glues) attached to them. Other observed particles include plant fibers, pollen, quartz, and calcite (CaCO ). 3"

This failure resulted in substantial Styrofoam particles fallout in South PPO area (DOC 12, Building 18). During the FY 2022 inspection/complaint investigation, the AQD staff reviewed the operation of CNC machine and associated cartridge filter system. Failure of the particulate matter control system, specifically cartridge filter system, resulted in fallout of Styrofoam particles on the roof, the parking lots and the stormwater collection systems. On March 11, 2022, after initial cleanup, there were still noticeable Styrofoam particles on the parking lot. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. The definition of “major stationary source” requires a tripartite test for determining the geographic extent of a single source. Specifically, a major stationary source is defined as all of the pollutant emitting activities that are (1) located on one or more contiguous or adjacent properties; (2) are under common control of the same person (or persons under common control); and (3) belong to a single major industrial grouping or are supporting the major industrial group (as determined by the Major Group codes in the Standard Industrial Classification Manual). Hence, the PPO operation southside of 12 Mile Road is part of the stationary source (GM Tech Center); and the applicable processes should be included in the ROP.

EUCREMATORY2 EUCREMATORY2 Secondary combustion Section IV – Special chamber is not operated in Condition 1. a satisfactory manner to control emissions. Waste combustion was started while the secondary combustion temperature was below 1600°F. Resurrection Cemetery operated EUCREMATORY1 and EUCREMATORY2 without installing a device to monitor and record the secondary combustion chamber temperature on a continuous basis. Resurrection Cemetery must install, calibrate, maintain, and operate in a manner satisfactory to the AQD District Supervisor, a device to monitor and record the temperature in the secondary combustion chamber of EUCREMATORY1 and EUCREMATORY2 on a continuous basis. Records of secondary combustion chamber temperature must be kept and made available to an AQD inspector if requested. Resurrection Cemetery operated EUCREMATORY2 while the secondary combustion chamber continuous temperature monitor (circular chart) was not calibrated correctly. It was observed that while the furnace was operating at 1610°F, the circular chart recorder was outputting close to 1800°F. All recent records of continuous temperature show that the furnace is operated close to 1800°F while the set point has always been 1615°F. Resurrection Cemetery cremated remains in EUCREMATORY2 while the secondary combustion temperature was below 1600°F. Resurrection Crematory staff stated that this furnace cannot reach 1600°F prior to turning on the primary burner; however, in Resurrection Crematory’s permit to install application, the facility implied that this furnace was capable of reaching 1600°F during preheat. Only the two older furnaces were mentioned in the permit to install application as not being able to reach a secondary combustion chamber temperature of 1600°F unless they have help from the cremation chamber once it is loaded.Mr. Tim Burrows Resurrection Cemetery Page 3 February 25, 2022 As part of the response to this violation, please contact Matthew’s Cremation and obtain a written document stating that this specific furnace cannot be started with a minimum secondary combustion chamber temperature of 1600°F. If Resurrection Crematory cannot start operation of EUCREMATORY2 with a minimum secondary combustion chamber temperature of 1600°F, then the Resurrection Crematory must submit a permit to install modification to allow for this unit to begin cremation at a lower temperature. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 18, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violation are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

On December 13, 2021, preliminary sampling results taken on December 9, 2021 showed elevated organic HAP emissions at 28 ppmv from catalytic thermal treatment unit (TTU) 870 that had been shut down for scheduled maintenance. In a February 15, 2022 telephone call with the company, emissions appeared to have been elevated for at least 200 hours. This is a violation of MI-ROP-B4942-2020a, EUPROCESS, SC I.5. Additionally, this is a violation of the National Emissions Standards of Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Pesticide Active Ingredient Production, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart MMM. Corteva AgriScience LLC has the option, when demonstrating compliance with this emission limit, to maintain at least a 98% destruction efficiency. Based on the July 2021 stack test results, the destruction efficiency for TTU 870 was only 95.3%, thus this alternative compliance option could not be used. 401 KETCHUM STREET • SUITE B • BAY CITY, MICHIGAN 48708 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 989-894-6200Lisa Callender Corteva AgriScience LLC Page 2 February 24, 2022 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 17, 2022 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The commencement date of trial operation of the RTO was communicated to me today, to be February of 2021. As of February 1, 2022, AQD has not received a MAP from Mold Masters, in violation of this requirement. PTI No. 368-06D, SC IV. 3 requires that Mold Masters not operate EUFlockBooth5 unless the RTO and associated Permanent Total Enclosure (PTE) are installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, with satisfactory operation of the RTO including, but not limited to, a minimum volatile organic compound (VOC) destruction efficiency (DE) of 95 percent (by weight). It was reported to AQD that preliminary stack testing on January 31, 2022, resulted in a DE of 94-95 percent, and that in September 2021, a preliminary stack test resulted in a DE of 74 percent. These values do not indicate satisfactory operation of the RTO, and thus, are in violation of this condition. The failure to operate the RTO in a satisfactory manner also constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. PTI number 368-06D, SC V. 2 requires that within 180 days from commencement of trial operation of the RTO associated with EUFlockBooth5, Mold Masters shall verify the VOC DE of the RTO by testing. Stack testing did not occur within the required 180 days, in violation of this condition. PTI No. 368-08D, SC V. 3 requires that within 180 days from commencement of trial operation of EUFlockBooth5, the permittee shall verify that the associated enclosure meets the definition of PTE or verify capture efficiency of the enclosure by testing. Neither verification that the associated enclosure meets the definition of PTE, nor verification of the capture efficiency of the enclosure by testing were completed during the required 180 days in violation of this condition. PTI No. 368-06D, SC VII. 1 requires that within 30 days after completion of the installation, construction, reconstruction, relocation or modification of the PTE and RTO associated with EUFlockBooth5, Mold Masters or their authorized agent shall notify the AQD District Supervisor, in writing, of the completion of the activity. Completion of the installation, construction, reconstruction, relocation, or modification is considered to occur no later than the commencement of trial operation of the PTE and RTO associated with EUFlockBooth5. AQD has not received written notification and therefore Mold Masters is in violation of this requirement.

The purpose of this review was to determine U.S. Steel’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. 199600132d. Based on AQD’s review, the following violation was noted: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Two No. 2 fuel oil boilers R 336.1201(1) Installation of two No. 2 fuel oil boilers without obtaining a permit to install. According to U.S. Steel personnel, there was an interruption in steam production due to an incident at the U.S. Steel Main Plant Boiler House No. 1 on January 19, 2022. This resulted in the No. 8 and No. 9 boilers being taken out of service and a loss of steam for operations and building heat. As such, a 5 MMBTU/hr No. 2 fuel oil boiler was installed and operational as of January 20, 2022. Additionally, an 85-90 MMBTU/hr No. 2 fuel oil boiler was installed and operating as of January 27, 2022. AQD acknowledges U.S. Steel’s intention to operate these boilers temporarily. Since their installation, U.S. Steel has secured a general permit to install from the AQD for the subsequent installation of natural gas fired boilers to supply steam to the Main Plant in place of the fuel oil boilers. Regardless, this is a violation of R 336.1201(1) of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. Rule 201(1) states in part: CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 313-456-4700Mr. Harvey Ghuman United States Steel Great Lakes Works Page 2 February 14, 2022 a person shall not install, construct, reconstruct, relocate, or modify any process or process equipment, including control equipment pertaining thereto, which may emit any of the following, unless a permit to install that authorizes such action is issued by the department. (a) Any air pollutant regulated by title I of the clean air act and its associated rules, including 40 C.F.R. §51.165 and §51.166, adopted by reference in R 336.1902. (b) Any air contaminant. The size of the 85-90 MMBTU/hr boiler exceeds the 20 MMBTU/hr limit for No. 2 fuel oil burning equipment specified in R 336.1282(2)(b)(ii) of the permit to install (PTI) exemptions. Furthermore, the potential to emit from the activity (i.e. the concurrent and related installation of both boilers) is above significance levels referenced in Rule 278(1)(b) and defined in Rule 119 for nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter 2.5. This precludes the use of any of the PTI exemptions for either boiler as stated in Rule 278. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the boilers. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page).

Testing conducted below normal operating loads identified in approved Test Plan. 2. CO spikes outside of instrument range occurred during testing and were not recorded by the DAS. Actual values are unknown 3. CO Destruction Efficiency calculations were not per 40 CFR 63.6603, Subpart ZZZZ. 4. The AQD’s calculations determined the CO emissions exceeded the PTI and 40 CFR 63.6603 limits 2100 WEST M-32 • GAYLORD, MICHIGAN 49735-9282 www.michigan.gov/deq • (989) 731-4920Mr. Brian Miller A & L Iron & Metal, Inc. Page 2 February 10, 2022 Operating Loads - The A & L Iron and Metal, Inc. VN response letter dated January 20, 2022, indicated that generator loads reported for the 2018 test event were in error, and that the operational loads were in fact consistent with the reduced loads reported for the October 5, 2021, testing. This indicates that the operational loads were erroneously reported to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency misrepresenting the operational load achieved during required testing conducted to meet requirements under EPA-15- 18-133(a)-MI-04. The operational load during testing is required to reflect the maximum operating load to ensure compliance with emission limits. Operational loads during testing set operational limits for compliance. Testing at operational loads so far below the maximum potential must have a method to verify that unit is not being operated at levels above those during testing. This would require a continuous recording device associated with the EUGENERATOR to show the operational load. The AQD’s Technical Program Units (TPU) staff was onsite to observe testing and post testing activities noted that engine operation changed once testing was completed and the AQD’s District Staff had left the site. Specifically, noise levels were reported to significantly elevate following departure of the AQD District Staff and remained at elevated levels. Prior to leaving site TPU Staff documented average KWHs of 1051- 1098 KWHs. Well above levels of 524 KWH recorded during test activities. Data Evaluation - Evaluation of the December 3, 2021, Stack Test Report by the AQD’s TPU Staff indicated that the tester did not calibration correct the CO or O2 data in the test report as required by the approved methods. In addition, CO concentrations exceeded analyzer range several times during the testing on the inlet and outlet analyzers. The tester attempted to justify the results by calculating the DE minute by minute showing compliance on 58 or 59 minutes out of 60 (again without calibration correcting the data). This is problematic as the majority of each run’s emissions occurred during these couple of minutes when the analyzers were unable to record a concentration. It was determined that without truly knowing the concentrations of the CO spikes it is inconclusive whether or not the source passed the CO DE test. The AQD’s TPU calculated a Destruction Efficiency (DE) of 67% (below the minimum 70% CO DE required to pass testing) when using data as reported by the DAS and then applying the appropriate calibration corrections. As such, the 2021 testing cannot be accepted to show compliance with the CO DE. Other- In addition to analytical data presented in the December 3, 2021, stack test report. Pre and post catalyst temperatures recorded by AQD District Staff during the October 5, 2021, testing indicated that the temperature highs reversed between pre and post catalyst readings throughout the testing. This data collected by AQD District StaffMr. Brian Miller A & L Iron & Metal, Inc. Page 3 February 10, 2022 appears to indicate that the catalyst was not operating properly at the time of the October 5, 2021, testing. Please be advised that failure to respond in writing and identifying actions that have been or will be taken to resolve the unacceptability of the CO test data may result in escalated enforcement action by the AQD. Please provide the information requested by February 24, 2022, which corresponds to 14 days from the date of this letter.

Page 2 January 7, 2022 Rotogravure printing Rule 624 Thermaseal Inc. installed and operation operated a rotogravure printing process without an add-on emissions control device. This process is subject to a minimum 65% volatile organic compound reduction efficiency under Rule 624. Rotogravure printing MACT KK Thermaseal Inc. is not in compliance operation with MACT KK. Organic HAP emissions from this process are limited by MACT KK to no more than 5% of the organic HAP applied for the month. During this inspection, it was noted that Thermaseal Inc. had installed and commenced operation of unpermitted processes at this facility. This is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the rotogravure printing operation and solvent based cold cleaner. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Thermaseal Inc. submitted a document to AQD claiming that the rotogravure printing process is exempt from Rule 201 requirements pursuant to Rule 290. This document did not contain actual emissions. Only theoretical emissions were provided, which are based on an assumed 10 hours/month operation. The 10 hours/month assumption is not an enforceable limit. To be exempt per Rule 290, the emission unit cannot be excluded from exemption as stated in Rule 278 and the company must keep records of material use and calculations identifying the quality, nature, and quantity of the air contaminant emissions are maintained in sufficient detail to demonstrate that the emissions meet the emission limits outlined in Rule 290 for a period of two years. Rule 278 states that permit to install exemptions do not apply to the construction of a new major source of HAPs which is subject to National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) standards. Major source of HAPs means any stationary source or group of stationary sources located within a contiguous area and under common control that emits or has the potential to emit considering controls, in the aggregate, 10 tons per year or more of any hazardous air pollutant or 25 tons per year or more of any combination of hazardous air pollutants.Mr. Ted Jacob Thermaseal Inc. Page 3 January 7, 2022 Thermaseal Inc. did not submit records, required in Rule 290(2)(d) and (e), showing that their actual emissions are compliant with Rule 290 since beginning operation, so they cannot use the limits in Rule 290 as their PTE. The PTE must be calculated based on maximum equipment capacity operating 24/7. The rotogravure printing operation is currently operated uncontrolled. Calculations provided by Thermaseal Inc. estimate total uncontrolled VOC emissions at 138.02 lbs/hour. Assuming 24/7 operation for 365 days a year (138.02 lb/hour * 8760 hours) yields an annual VOC emission rate of 604 tons. The calculations also show that there would be 102.5 tons of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) emitted annually (all toluene). Additionally, as a major source of HAPs, Thermaseal Inc. is subject to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart KK – National Emissions Standards for the Printing and Publishing Industry. Be advised, R 336.1211(a)(ii) of the Michigan Administrative Code (MAC) requires sources that directly emit or have the potential to emit 100 tons/year or more of VOC or 10 tons/year or more of an individual HAP to obtain a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP). R 336.1210 prohibits the operation of a source required to have an ROP except in compliance with all applicable terms and conditions of an ROP, unless a timely and administratively complete ROP application has been received. Per R 336.1210(4), for a stationary source that is or becomes a major source, as defined by R 336.1211(1)(a)(i) to (iii), an administratively complete application shall be considered timely if it is received by the department not more than 12 months after the stationary source commences operation as a major source or otherwise becomes subject to the requirements to obtain a renewable operating permit as a major source. Sources which have a potential to emit greater than 250 tons per year of a regulated new source review (NSR) pollutant are subject to Prevention of Significant Deterioration of Air Quality (PSD) regulations under 40 CFR 52.21. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by January 28, 2021 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Grede's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended; the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-B1577-2020; Consent Order AQD number 2021-01; and to investigate a recent complaint which we received on September 26, 2021, regarding particulate fallout attributed to Grede’s operations. During the investigation, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Particulate fallout from R 336.1901(b), General Emissions of metal foundry operations Condition 12 of MI-ROP-B1577- particulate causing injurious 2020 effects to property and unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. A complaint was received via e-mail on September 26, 2021, regarding fallout noticed on property that is believed to be attributed to Grede’s operations. The complainant noticed brown metal particles on their vehicle a couple days prior to filing the complaint with the AQD. A site investigation was performed on September 28, 2021, to collect samples from the complainant’s vehicle and from Grede to determine if the material is a match through a composition analysis. Two ghost wipe samples were taken off the hood of the complainant’s vehicle at 10:56 a.m. eastern standard time (EST). After meeting with the complainant and taking samples, three samples were then taken at the Grede foundry. The source of the fallout from the Grede foundry is believed to come from finishing operations. The Steelcraft baghouse, that is a control device for EU-P014 Main Plant Finishing, had visible emission events and excursions in the past. Two samples of material from the Steelcraft baghouse were collected at 12:11 p.m. EST. 1504 WEST WASHINGTON STREET • MARQUETTE, MICHIGAN 49855 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 906-228-4853Mr. Tyler Hill 2 December 17, 2021 The samples were taken by Grede personnel from the dumpster that the baghouse hoppers are emptied into. The third sample from Grede was taken on the roof, behind the Steelcraft baghouse, with a ghost wipe at 12:49 p.m. EST. All five samples were submitted to the EGLE Laboratory on September 20, 2021, to be analyzed for metals. Final results of the sample analysis were provided on December 8, 2021. The results indicate a resemblance in the chemical composition of the three sample locations. Higher amounts of iron, chromium, copper, and manganese were detected in all three sample locations compared to other metals analyzed. The chemical composition of gray iron castings is known to contain these four alloying elements. Based on the lab results and the proximity of the complaint location to Grede, the AQD believes the particulate fallout detected is associated with Grede’s foundry operations.

MI-ROP-B5462-2021a EU-GASTREATING Special Condition (SC) I. 1 limits the sulfur dioxide emissions from EU-GASTREATING to 2,227 lbs over a 24-hour period. On September 15, 2021, the reported sulfur dioxide emissions over a 24-hour period from EU-GASTREATING were 2,909.32 lbs, as detailed in the monthly Rule 403 Monitoring Report received on October 19, 2021. On October 15 and 25, 2021, reported 24-hour sulfur dioxide emissions were 2375.31 lbs, and 4357.82 lbs, respectively, as detailed in the monthly Rule 403 monitoring report received on November 19, 2021. These exceedances constitute violations of the permitted emission limit. The above exceedances or deviations were not reported to AQD promptly, as required by MI-ROP-B5462-2021a EU-GASTREATING SC VII. 1, and by General Condition (GC) 21. EU-GASTREATING GC 21. a. states that for deviations which exceed the emissions allowed under the ROP, prompt reporting “means reporting consistent with the requirements of Rule 912 as detailed in Condition 25.” EU_GASTREATING GC 25 requires, in part, that the permittee shall provide notice of an abnormal condition, start-up, shutdown, or malfunction that results in emissions of any air contaminant continuing for more than 2 hours in excess of any applicable standard or limitation, as required by Rule 912, to the appropriate AQD District Office. The notice shall be provided not later than two business days after the start-up, shut down, or discovery of the abnormal conditions or malfunction. The notice shall be by any reasonable means including electronic, telephonic or oral communication. Written reports, if required under Rule 912, must be submitted to the appropriate AQD District Supervisor within 10 days after start-up or shutdown occurred, within 10 days after the abnormal conditions or malfunction has been corrected, or within 30 days of the discovery of the abnormal conditions or malfunction, whichever is first. For the September 15, 2021, event, where sulfur dioxide emissions exceeded the permitted 24-hour limit for more than two hours, notice was provided by telephone on September 16, 2021, as required by Rule 912(4). However, written notice was not provided within 30 days of the discovery of the abnormal conditions or malfunction, as required by Rule 912(5). This is a violation of Rule 912(5), as well as MI-ROP-B5462- 2021a, EU-GASTREATING SC VII. 1, GC 21. a., and GC 25. Additionally, the AQD was not informed if the abnormal conditions or malfunction have been corrected.Mr. Jeff Adler Tuscola Energy Page 3 November 24, 2021 For the October 15 and 25, 2021 events, where sulfur dioxide emissions exceeded the permitted limit for more than two hours, notices were not provided by telephone, as required by Rule 912(4). Additionally, written notices were not provided within 10 days after the shutdowns on October 17 and October 25, 2021 occurred, or within 30 days of the discovery of the October 15 event, as required by Rule 912(5).

For the August 2 complaint, fallout allegedly occurred between the evening of July 30 and the morning of August 2. For the September 29 complaint, fallout allegedly occurred during the overnight hours of September 28 to September 29. The scope of the investigations included the operations at Edw. C. Levy Plant 6 located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigations was to determine Edw. C. Levy's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the administrative rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP- B4243-2016. The investigations of August 2 and September 29 were performed by Mr. Jonathan Lamb, EGLE-AQD. During each investigation, Mr. Lamb observed fallout on vehicles and samples of the fallout were collected during each investigation and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Lab results indicate the composition of the fallout samples collected on August 2 and September 29, 2021, is consistent with materials associated with slag processing at Edw. C. Levy’s Plant 6.

The purpose of this review was to determine the Company’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control , of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended and the associated Air Pollution Control Rules, the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart AAAA, Permit to Install (PTI) 79-17, and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N2688-2011a. The Company operates a gas collection and control system (GCCS) at the Arbor Hills Landfill. The GCCS consist of approximately 400 active gas wells. The collected landfill gas is routed to a landfill gas-to-energy facility owned by Arbor Hills Energy LLC (AHE) with three backup flares owned by the Company to be used in the event of an outage at the AHE plant. AQD staff reviewed the Company’s landfill gas combustion data and flare operation data during three AHE plant shutdown events in 2021. These occurred on April 18, August 13 & 14 and October 19 & 20, 2021. An Odor Compliant Investigation was also conducted by AQD staff on October 19, 2021. Based on the above reviews, AQD staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EULANDFILL-S2, PTI 79-17: The control system must be EUACTIVECOLL-S2, EU5000CFMFLARE Special designed to handle the FGENCLOSEDFLARES-S2, Condition IX.

Subpart AAAA: Municipal system equipment. See Solid Waste Landfills, 40 discussion below. CFR 63.1955(c), and 63.1959(b)(2)(ii) FGENCLOSEDFLARES-S2, R 336.1910 (Rule 910) Any air cleaning device shall and EU5000CFMFLARE be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner. The landfill is currently generating approximately 10,000 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) of landfill gas that is being collected/burned in 4 gas turbines and/or 3 flares. At the start of 2021, the backup flare system consisted of two enclosed style flares with a combined rating as determined by stack test of 6,200 scfm and a candlestick flare rated at 5,000 scfm. (This gives a combined maximum flaring capacity of 11,200 scfm.) Review of 2021 landfill gas data consumed at the AHE plant, and the amount of landfill gas consumed by the flares during partial or complete shutdowns of the turbines, duct burners, and associated blowers at AHE showed that flaring consumed less than 90% of the expected gas combustion that would have occurred if the AHE had been operating at the production rate that was occurring just prior to a plant outage. An adequately designed/properly operated flaring system should be able to provide the same level of vacuum to the wellfield and capture/burn similar levels of landfill gas as the AHE plant. More specifically, the following table shows landfill gas shortfalls averaged over the entire day for AHE plant shutdown events as compared to baseline conditions during normal operations as determined from the most recent data available just before and/or just after the plant shutdown day: Date: Shortfall: 04/18/2021 1105 scfm 08/13/2021 1697 scfm 08/14/2021 1580 scfm 10/19/2021 1782 scfm 10/20/2021 1366 scfm More specific operating data provided by the Company and AHE for the October 19 & 20 event showed that the applied vacuum on the landfill GCCS failed to reach the necessary - 80” W.C. during the event which is the setpoint used by AHE during normal operations. In addition, Flare 391 failed to start despite the full AHE shutdown for parts of the October 19 and 20. Also, some of the data provided by the Company may have been erroneous or otherwise unreliable. For instance, AQD staff observed during the inspection that the candle stick flare was not operating at 7 pm on October 19, 2021, per AQD inspector notes and photo taken of the flare in violation of Rule 910. Data provided by Company indicated that the flare was operating at a full 5,000 scfm gas flow rate. Furthermore, the apparent loss ofDavid Seegert Green for Life, Arbor Hills Landfill Inc November 10, 2021 Page 3 landfill gas that was not being collected by the flares may have contributed to nearby odor complaints that were received by AQD during the same time periods.

The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

Please send suspicious emails to abuse@michigan.gov Erin, We are in receipt of the compliance communication pertaining to the Wexford 10. After consideration of all the different issues involved we have concluded that the best course of action going forward is to terminate the old air quality permit for this location. As a bit of historical information, the Wexford 10 was originally built by Shell Oil Company back in the late 70's and the air quality permit was directly related to the amine sweetening plant which was removing a lot of hydrogen sulfide from the natural gas stream, then converting it into SO2 through the flare. Fast forward to today, we still produce sour natural gas through the facility but the amine plant has not run in more than 10 years and will not be run again. In essence the existence of the permit, creates permit conditions which cannot be met at this time, at least not without the expenditure of a considerable amount of money that will not benefit our ongoing operations. We believe that eliminating the permit will eliminate the permit conditions, which will also eliminate the violations. It is our opinion that the rest of the facility which is still in operation (when market conditions justify operation) do not require any permitting through Air Quality Division and thus fall under the authority of Part 615 which is administered by the Office of Geological Survey. Out of due caution, we do want to move forward in such a way that we don't just terminate the permit before AQD has had ample opportunity to evaluate the process and equipment that is on location to make sure that AQD is in agreement. I had a nice conversation about this issue with Ms Jodi Lindgren yesterday, and she is CC'd on this email, as is Ms Cathy Lain at Jaguar Energy LLC and Don Schuster our contract engineering consultant. Please let me know how we proceed, and we look forward to moving towards a resolution.

The purpose of this inspection and stack testing was to determine compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 118-08 for EUINCINERATOR. During the inspection and stack testing, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUINCINERATOR PTI 118-08, Special Condition Exceeded the maximum (SC) 1.4 charge rate eight times between December 2020 and August 2021 EUINCINERATOR PTI 118-08, SC 1.5 Operated the incinerator afterburner below 1600°F, the temperature required in SC 1.5.

BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-284-6651Mr. Robert W. Benstein Capital Region Airport Authority Page 2 October 21, 2021 PTI 118-08 - EUINCINERATOR A copy of the “CRAA International Garbage Incinerator Log” for December 1, 2020, to September 17, 2021, was provided as requested. There are eight (8) exceedances (greater than 66.7 lbs) of the maximum charge rate which is the burn rate divided by three as required in SC 1.4. The highest charge rate was 100.985 lbs on May 10, 2021. The exceedances were confirmed by CRAA, and they have made their incinerator operators aware of this as well. CRAA will also reiterate this in their fall operator training. A minimum temperature of 1600°F is required to be maintained in the secondary chamber (upper chamber afterburner) per SC 1.5. During the stack test on July 20, 2021, the incinerator timed out (shut off) and the afterburner temperature dropped to below 1400°F. The test run was not acceptable because the incinerator was operating in violation of PTI 118-08, SC 1.5. From the afterburner temperature monitor on the incinerator, the temperature history can be downloaded electronically but not easily. For the temperature records, the instrument contractor must be contacted to download the information from the temperature monitor controller/recorder. The contractor tried to extract the temperature data from the recorder but was unable to retrieve any information due to the record button not being pressed allowing the recording process. This can occur due to a power outage and dead battery backup. The handwritten data recorded by the CRAA operator during the July 20 – 21, 2021 stack testing is the only afterburner temperature data available for the testing event. The temperature records do not appear to be kept in a satisfactory manner per the requirements in SC 1.8 and SC 1.10. Rule 974 - Emissions standards for existing commercial and industrial solid waste incinerators. According to the CRAA Final Emission Test Report sent on October 4, 2021, compliance with the emission limitations in Rule 974(9)(d) – Table 6 to Subpart DDDD of Part 60 for NOx, HCl and PM was not demonstrated. Also, EUINCINERATOR has a control system (afterburner) that will require EPA to approve this alternative and so far, compliance with some of the emission limits have not been demonstrated for the alternative control system. Plus, testing for dioxins/furans, cadmium, lead, and mercury has not been completed to date. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by November 12, 2021, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.Mr. Robert W.

Axalta submitted inaccurate throughputs for EU-DISP-TANK. Axalta stated that they originally submitted “double counted” emissions. Axalta stated that this is due to accidently counting both materials received, and materials delivered as throughput. AQD has not received documentation to verify how throughputs at Axalta were double counted. In the response to the violation notice, please provide documentation that can show AQD how these throughputs were double counted. Furthermore, throughputs in EU-DISP-TANK are inconsistent between the original 2020 emission factor calculation (7,331 tons), the updated emission factor calculation to account for double counting (3,237 tons), and the 2020 calendar year 12-month rolling records (4,760 tons). Please provide an explanation for these inconsistencies in the response to this violation notice. Axalta misused EPA Vol 2 Chapter 8 Equation 8.4-1 when calculating VOC emissions from EU-DISP-TANK. This resulted in inaccurate monthly and 12-month rolling VOC emission totals. AQD has not received accurate VOC emission calculations for EU- DISP-TANK at this time. The inaccuracies in the FG-DISP-TANKS calculation bring to question the legitimacy of other emission unit calculations which utilize the same calculation methodology. For this reason, AQD requested that Axalta provide excel documents detailing emission factor calculations for all emission units which utilize this calculation methodology by August 13, 2021, otherwise a violation notice will be issued for failing to provide acceptable records.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate a recent complaint that EGLE, AQD received on September 30, 2021 regarding fallout damage to vehicles located at River Trail Apartments in Three Rivers, Michigan that was attributed to foundry operations. On August 26, 2021, a complaint was made to the EPA alleging that Metal Technologies had caused pitting and rust damage to cars at an apartment complex located to the south-southwest of the Facility. The complaint was forwarded to EGLE AQD on September 30, 2021.

This is the same damage to vehicles that has been attributed to the foundry in previous complaints. Staff took photos of the of two vehicles belonging to the complainant. Records were obtained from the facility as part of the investigation. Records showed that an alarm occurred in the West Dustar baghouse on August 13, 2021 at 12:00pm which lasted until 12:30pm and could not be attributed to weather. The line was shut down and a visolite investigation was performed which revealed two broken bags, which were replaced. According to historical weather data, the wind direction during the malfunction was not in the correct direction to cause the damage noted. As a result of the broken bags, the facility hired a contractor to do a full bag replacement on the West Dustar baghouse, which was completed on Saturday August 14, 2021. The used bags were placed in an open top dumpster and picked up on Monday for disposal. Between the time the bags were placed in the dumpster and when it was picked up, the wind was gusting out of the north-northeast, which is the correct direction to cause the damage. It is believed that the damage was caused because the replaced bags were stored, uncovered, over the weekend. The facility provided records documenting the morning and afternoon visible emissions readings from the facility for the weeks of August 9th, 16th, and 23rd.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Great Lakes Cremation Service's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 195-14.

During the inspection, a review of recordkeeping was conducted. It was found that Genesee Cremation Service has not kept records of the periods of time when only pathological waste is burned in each crematory incinerator, as required by 40 CFR 60.50c(b) and PTI No. 195-14.

PTI No. 195-14, SC EUCREMATORY1 VI. 4 requires: The permittee shall keep, in a manner satisfactory to the AQD District Supervisor, records on a calendar quarter basis of the periods of time when only pathological waste is burned in the incinerator as required by 40 CFR 60.50c(b). The permittee shall keep all records on file and make them available upon request. PTI No. 195-14 SC EUCREMATORY2 VI. 4 contains the same requirement. Failure to keep records documenting quarterly when only pathological waste is burned is a violation of the above permit special conditions. During the inspection, I was informed that no pathological waste is burned in EUCREMATORY1 or EUCREMATORY2, only human and animal remains. Please be aware that the definition you may be familiar with is different from what is described in the 40 CFR definition. By this federal definition, the regular human and animal remains which are cremated at your facility, are classified as pathological waste. As long as Great Lakes Cremation Service burns only these waste types as required by PTI No. 195-14, then please document at least quarterly in your records that only pathological wastes have been burned. This documentation will certify that Great Lakes Cremation Service is exempt from the requirements of 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ec, Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources: Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators.Mr. Dave Potts O’Guinn Family Funeral Homes Page 3 September 23, 2021 You may wish to consider adding a column to your recordkeeping so that for each cremation, you can check that only pathological waste was burned, going by the definition in 40 CFR 60.51c. This will allow you to demonstrate that for each quarter of the year, only the specified pathological waste was burned.

During the investigation, persistent and objectionable blast furnace slag/sulfur odors of moderate to strong (Level 3 and 4) intensity were detected in residential areas and at, or near, Salina Elementary and Salina Intermediate Schools, downwind of the facility. These odors were traced back to Levy’s blast furnace slag pits near the intersection of Dix and Miller Roads. In AQD staff’s professional judgment, the odors observed were of sufficient intensity, duration, and frequency to constitute a violation of Rule 901(b), and General Condition 12(b) of Section 2 of ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a: an “unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.” CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 313-456-4700Mr. J.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine the facility’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 212-16. Following the inspection, an inspector from the Materials Management Division (MMD) informed the Air Quality Division that Wright Coating Technologies was disposing of their spent coating booth filters by incinerating them in their burn-off ovens. Wright Coating Technologies indicated in the facility’s response to MMD that upon further assessment the filters were determined to be a hazardous waste. Because the facility had been burning hazardous waste in their burn-off ovens, they became subject to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE - National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from Hazardous Waste Combustors. The facility was subsequently also required to obtain a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) under the Tile V program. The facility did not comply with the requirements of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE and did not apply for an ROP. The associated violations are outlined in the following table.

Purchase records are not sufficient to show compliance with this monitoring and recordkeeping requirement for monthly usage tracking. Rule 201 Violations During this inspection, it was noted that the Facility had installed and commenced operation of unpermitted equipment at this facility. In discussion with the facility and verified by looking through past permit to install applications, the permittee only has PTIs to cover five induction furnaces installed on site. The facility installed the sixth induction furnace on site about 2009-2010. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the EUINDFURN6 process equipment. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Emission Limits Violations The records provided demonstrate that actual emissions of VOC from the induction furnace process equipment are 3.5 tons per year on a 12-month rolling basis. The conditions of PTI number(s) 46-00 and 98-09 limit the emissions of VOC to 2.8 tons per year on a 12-month rolling basis. The emission limits are 2.8 tons per year VOC for EUINDFURN1 and EUINDFURN2 and 2.8 tons per year VOC for EUINDFURN3. The records are being kept in such a way that emissions cannot be separated out by furnace. Since the emissions cannot be verified for how the permits are structured, it is considered a violation of the emissions limit. Process/Operational Restriction Violations The permittee shall not operate EUPHOSPHATELINE unless a malfunction abatement plan (MAP) for the wet scrubber has been submitted within 45 days of permit issuance. The MAP has not been submitted to the district supervisor for review and was not submitted as part of the records request.Mr. Malcolm Satterfield Musashi Auto Parts Page 5 August 23, 2021 The facility shall not operate EU-AMMONIA unless an emergency response plan is in place.

Material Limit Violations PTI No. 26-13 establishes material limits for the quench oil used in the electric heat treat carburizing furnace with internal oil quench named EU-S-TFC-100-6. Based on the records provided, the facility exceeded to 110.0 gallons of quench oil material limit in January and February 2020 with 165 gallons of quench oil added. In November 2019, 210 gallons of quench oil was added. Monitoring/Recordkeeping Violations PTI No. 8-19 requires the permittee to keep records of the gallons of each material used in EUPHOSPAHTELINE each month and 12-month rolling time period. The facility was able to supply purchase records of pounds of material purchased for use on the line but these are not sufficient to show compliance with the requirement to track monthly and 12-month usage on the line.

The Renewable Operating Permit number MI-ROP-N2388-2014a requires the facility to monitor and record emissions from EUBOILER on a continuous basis and with instrumentation acceptable to the AQD. This monitor is required by Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) MI-ROP-N2388-2014a; Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 97, Subparts AAAAA, BBBBB and CCCCC. During the review of the November 2020 RATA and Emission Testing results, anomalies were noticed when the flow data were compared. The testing company’s Reference Method (RM) flow data from the stack test runs were compared to the facility’s CEM flow data during the same time periods. The RM stack test flow data was significantly higher than the facility’s flow CEM data. EGLE staff recreated a RATA using the RM flow data and flow CEM data from the same time periods and a failure was detected. This demonstrated something is wrong with the facility’s flow CEM. The AQD cannot accept the RATA performed in November 2020. During the February 23, 2021 conference call with GGS, Consumers Energy, and EGLE, a reason for the significant difference could not be explained. Eventually, it was decided that GGS’s flow CEM would be retested. 120 WEST CHAPIN STREET • CADILLAC, MICHIGAN 49601-2158 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 231-775-3960Ed Going Grayling Generating Station Page 2 of 4 June 18, 2021 High Flow RATA created from November 2020 stack tests (kscfh) CEM SN FLOW = 16438615 Run RM CEM d 1 8570 6818 1752 PM/Metals R1 2 8591 6915 1676 PM/Metals R2 3 8586 6983 1603 PM/Metals R3 4 8478 7037 1441 BAP R1 5 8586 7101 1485 BAP R2 6 8536 7071 1465 BAP R3 7 8617 7096 1521 H2SO4 R1 8 8596 7148 1448 H2SO4 R2 9 8676 7123 1553 H2SO4 R3 AVG 8582 7032 1549 Sd 108 CC 83 RA 19.03 BAF 1.22 On April 26, 2021, trial flow RATAs were observed at three loads (Low/Mid/High). Each load failed the relative accuracy criteria. Specifically, the relative accuracies ranged from 23-31%. It should be noted that the RM flow data at High Load were similar to the RM stack test data from the November 2020 Emissions Testing. On April 29, 2021 a representative from Sick, the CEM flow monitor manufacturer, was onsite and made three changes to GGS’s CEM Data Acquisition and Handling System (DAHS), which are detailed below. It should also be noted that the calibration coefficient was changed twice; once at a Low Load during a diagnostic flow check from 1.00 to 1.20, then again at a High Load during a diagnostic flow check from 1.20 to 1.25. On April 29, 2021 GGS passed RATAs at Low Load and Mid Load. On May 3, 2021 GGS passed RATA at High Load. The three changes made to GGS’s CEM DAHS by the Sick representative were: 1. The calibration coefficient cv_1 was increased from 1.00 to 1.25 2. The stack area was decreased from 49.19 ft2 to 46.16 ft2 3. The stack pressure was decreased from 2.12 lb/ft2 to 2.04 lb/ft2 In subsequent discussions and after looking at past testing data with the US Environmental Protection Agency’s, Clean Air Market Division’s (CAMD) staff, it was agreed the flow data going back to the October 24, 2017 flow monitor changeout, appeared to be suspect. This was further confirmed in the flow to load ratio, before and after the current flow monitor was installed, as is evident in the graph below by the noticeable divergence at the time of monitor changeout. CAMD agreed with EGLE, “that the data appeared to be anomalous and worthy of additional explanations.” CAMD also agreed that GGS should review all the certified data reported from October 24, 2017 onward, and determine if the data continues to be considered true and accurate to the best of GGS’s knowledge; which is, consistent with the certification statement that accompanies any 40 CFR Part 75 submission.During June Page Grayling Ed Stack Flow (scfh) / Steam Load (kpph) EUBOILER EUBOILER EUBOILER Description y, "" V...,. ~ ""V', ~ ""V,' B I}, ~ .G..,) Going Process our 01-01-15 0 • 8 0 b 8 b 8 b 8 b 8 b 8 b 8 b 8 b 8 b 8 -C<J 18, 3 of - 2021 Generating 4 review, 04-01-15 • :::J 07-01-15 cm s: G) 10-01-15 (R EUBOILER, MI-ROP-N2388-2014a Part (40 EUBOILER, MI-ROP-N2388-2014a, Part (40 EUBOILER, MI-ROP-N2388-2014a, staff (1) 336.1213(4)(c)) Condition 01-01-16 0 :::J Station CFR CFR 75, 75, noted :::J .(.1.), 04-01-16 Rule/Permit r-+ R 60.13, R 60.13, 07-01-16 .0.. , r-+ CJ 336.1213(3)) 336.1213(3)) the n ::::, VII, VI, IV, 10-01-16 Violated :::::r cm following 40 1 40 2 2 01-01-17 CJ -""Tl and CFR CFR :::J 04-01-17 cm 0 :E 3 07-01-17 (1) violations: 0 s: 10-01-17 • C compliance compliance Failure with EUBOILER dioxide oxides The Part 60.13 accordance installed, Failure r-+ 0 01-01-18 0 :::J 40 permittee 75, and 04-01-18 z 0• nn .r0.-. +, and semi-annual as required to report and certify CFR Part 75. on a continuous concentration emissions, sulfur shall monitor as appropriate. 40 CFR Part with the procedures calibrated, maintained, to continuously Comments 07-01-18 0 0 10-01-18 1 4 - - 0 0 1 1 - - 1 1 9 9 -Vz) °.IwiI:-I,' :1E1) 00 .

(b) Unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the dust fallout that was observed was of sufficient intensity, frequency, and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The AQD received a similar complaint in March 2020. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic an on-site sample was not obtained to perform a comparison analysis. However, during an email exchange, a U.S. Graphite representative explained this same equipment needed cartridges replaced. In a separate letter, the facility will be asked to prepare a malfunction abatement plan (MAP) to prevent, detect, and correct malfunctions or equipment failures resulting in emissions exceeding any applicable emission limitation.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Grede’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-B1577-2020; Consent Order AQD number 2021-01; and to investigate a recent complaint which we received on June 16, 2021, regarding fallout attributed to Grede's operations.

EU-P014 Main Plant Special Condition VIII.1 Stack height of East Fuller Finishing baghouse does not meet the minimum height requirement. EU-P014 Main Plant Special Condition VIII.2 Stack height of West Fuller Finishing baghouse does not meet the minimum height requirement. EU-P018 Main Plant Special Condition IV.1 The Hermann baghouse was Shakeout observed not entirely installed and not operating. EU-P018 Main Plant Special Condition VIII.2 Stack height of the Linsmeyer Shakeout baghouse does not meet the minimum height requirement. EU-P040 Sand Special Condition III.1, Significant amount of sand Conditioning System Paragraph 13.A of AQD observed around the floor of the No. 2021-01 Sand Conditioning System due to a pipe leak. On June 22, 2021, the AQD staff observed gap/holes in the south facing side of the cupola baghouse structure. The panels were observed being blown outward indicating emissions were being vented at this point since the unit is under positive pressure. A range finder was used to measure the height at which the panels were shown not intact. A height of 42.6 feet was measured. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. This process is also subject to the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Iron and Steel Foundries. These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEEEE. Grede is required to maintain an O & M Plan for each capture and control system for an emission unit subject to an emission limit as described in 40 CFR 63.7710. The O & M Plan states there are monthly observations of the physical appearance of the capture and ventilations system equipment (holes, dents, accumulated dust, fan condition). However, during the inspection, there were gaps in the panels of the baghouse on the south facing side that could cause a point of emission. Based on these observations, the inspections and maintenance on the baghouse are not following the O & M Plan for the facility. From reviewing Grede’s semiannual and annual ROP compliance reports, MACT EEEEE certification of compliance is not included in these reports. The facility should be including MACT EEEEE compliance certification in the “Other Report Certification” box. If there were no deviations from any emissions limitations (including operating limit), work practice standards, or operation and maintenance requirements from MACTMr. Tyler Hill 3 July 15, 2021 EEEEE, there should be a statement that there were no deviations from the emissions limitations, work practice standards, or operation and maintenance requirements during the reporting period. If there were deviations from MACT EEEEE requirements, Grede is required to include all reporting requirements according to 40 CFR 63.7751(a)(7). During the inspection, AQD staff utilized a Nikon Forestry Pro II Rangefinder to determine the stack height of SV-S014-324128, SV-S014-324132, and SV-S018- 324372-B. Measurements indicated stack heights of less than the minimum stack height requirements listed in MI-ROP-B1577-2020. The measurements recorded with the rangefinder were 25 ft for SV-S014-324128 and SV-S014-324132, and 23.1 ft for SV-S018-324372-B. The AQD staff informed Grede staff of these findings during the inspection. During the inspection, the Linsmeyer and Torit #1 baghouses were installed and operational, but the Hermann baghouse was not for EU-P018 Main Plant Shakeout. The Hermann baghouse is installed on-site but no ductwork is connected, and the baghouse is not in operation. Based on observations during the inspection, the shakeout process is not meeting all design/equipment requirements with not having the Hermann baghouse operational. During the inspection of EU-P040 Sand Conditioning System, AQD staff observed a significant amount of sand that had accumulated on the floor in the Sand Conditioning area. At the time, Grede staff stated there had been a leak in the duct that conveys the sand. The accumulated material and leak could cause a potential fugitive dust issue. The Sand Conditioning System does not appear to be following the O & M Plan.

Crushmor, LLC 5256 North Genesee Road Flint, Michigan 48506 SRN: P1164, Genesee County Dear Mr. Hippensteel: VIOLATION NOTICE On June 14, 2021, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an inspection of Mt. Crushmor, LLC (Mt. Crushmor) located at 2420 S. Grand Traverse, Flint, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine Mt. Crushmor's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules and the conditions of general crusher Permit to Install (PTI) No. 1-21, and to witness attempted visible emissions testing of the recently permitted portable crusher and screening process. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Screening process General PTI No. 1-21, A water spray system was Special Condition (SC) not installed on the FGCRUSHING 1.7 screening process, resulting in excess visible emissions. Portable crusher General PTI No. 1-21, SC A water supply was not FGCRUSHING 1.7 available for the crusher's water spray system, resulting in excess visible emissions. Portable crusher and Rule 910 Failure to install, maintain, screening process or operate a pollution control device (water sprays) properly. Upon arrival at the crusher’s location on June 14, 2021, visible emissions of dust from the crusher’s exit conveyor and from the screening process exit conveyor appeared to be over the permitted limits, on an instantaneous basis. CONSTITUTION HALL • 525 WEST ALLEGAN STREET • P.O. BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-284-6651Mr. Lyle Hippensteel Mt. Crushmor, LLC Page 2 July 13, 2021 The conditions of general PTI No. 1-21 limit the emissions of visible emissions from the crusher to a 6-minute average of 15% opacity. The permit conditions also limit visible emissions from the screening process to a 6-minute average of 10% opacity. It is unlikely that these limits would have been met, if the visible emission testing had proceeded. This mineral processing plant is also subject to the federal New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Nonmetallic Mineral Processing facilities. These standards are found in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 60, Subpart OOO. They include a visible emission limit of 12% opacity, over a 6-minute average, for crushers built on or after April 22, 2008. The crusher was built in 2013, and so is also subject to this 12% limit. It is unlikely that the limit would have been met, had the testing proceeded. General PTI No. 1-21, Special Condition (SC) 1.7 states: “Each crusher and screen shall be equipped with a water spray. A baghouse dust collector may be installed in lieu of water spray for any particular piece of equipment. The control equipment shall be properly operated as necessary to comply with all emission limits.” The AQD staff observed operation of the screening process without a water spray system, and of the crusher without water available to properly operate its water spray system. These are violations of SC 1.7. The screen’s lack of a water spray system and the lack of water for the crusher’s water spray system also constitute a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by August 3, 2021. The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The Renewable Operating Permit number MI-ROP-N2388-2014a requires the facility to monitor and record emissions from EUBOILER on a continuous basis and with instrumentation acceptable to the AQD. This monitor is required by Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) MI-ROP-N2388-2014a; Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 97, Subparts AAAAA, BBBBB and CCCCC. During the review of the November 2020 RATA and Emission Testing results, anomalies were noticed when the flow data were compared. The testing company’s Reference Method (RM) flow data from the stack test runs were compared to the facility’s CEM flow data during the same time periods. The RM stack test flow data was significantly higher than the facility’s flow CEM data. EGLE staff recreated a RATA using the RM flow data and flow CEM data from the same time periods and a failure was detected. This demonstrated something is wrong with the facility’s flow CEM. The AQD cannot accept the RATA performed in November 2020. During the February 23, 2021 conference call with GGS, Consumers Energy, and EGLE, a reason for the significant difference could not be explained. Eventually, it was decided that GGS’s flow CEM would be retested. 120 WEST CHAPIN STREET • CADILLAC, MICHIGAN 49601-2158 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 231-775-3960Ed Going Grayling Generating Station Page 2 of 4 June 18, 2021 High Flow RATA created from November 2020 stack tests (kscfh) CEM SN FLOW = 16438615 Run RM CEM d 1 8570 6818 1752 PM/Metals R1 2 8591 6915 1676 PM/Metals R2 3 8586 6983 1603 PM/Metals R3 4 8478 7037 1441 BAP R1 5 8586 7101 1485 BAP R2 6 8536 7071 1465 BAP R3 7 8617 7096 1521 H2SO4 R1 8 8596 7148 1448 H2SO4 R2 9 8676 7123 1553 H2SO4 R3 AVG 8582 7032 1549 Sd 108 CC 83 RA 19.03 BAF 1.22 On April 26, 2021, trial flow RATAs were observed at three loads (Low/Mid/High). Each load failed the relative accuracy criteria. Specifically, the relative accuracies ranged from 23-31%. It should be noted that the RM flow data at High Load were similar to the RM stack test data from the November 2020 Emissions Testing. On April 29, 2021 a representative from Sick, the CEM flow monitor manufacturer, was onsite and made three changes to GGS’s CEM Data Acquisition and Handling System (DAHS), which are detailed below. It should also be noted that the calibration coefficient was changed twice; once at a Low Load during a diagnostic flow check from 1.00 to 1.20, then again at a High Load during a diagnostic flow check from 1.20 to 1.25. On April 29, 2021 GGS passed RATAs at Low Load and Mid Load. On May 3, 2021 GGS passed RATA at High Load. The three changes made to GGS’s CEM DAHS by the Sick representative were: 1. The calibration coefficient cv_1 was increased from 1.00 to 1.25 2. The stack area was decreased from 49.19 ft2 to 46.16 ft2 3. The stack pressure was decreased from 2.12 lb/ft2 to 2.04 lb/ft2 In subsequent discussions and after looking at past testing data with the US Environmental Protection Agency’s, Clean Air Market Division’s (CAMD) staff, it was agreed the flow data going back to the October 24, 2017 flow monitor changeout, appeared to be suspect. This was further confirmed in the flow to load ratio, before and after the current flow monitor was installed, as is evident in the graph below by the noticeable divergence at the time of monitor changeout. CAMD agreed with EGLE, “that the data appeared to be anomalous and worthy of additional explanations.” CAMD also agreed that GGS should review all the certified data reported from October 24, 2017 onward, and determine if the data continues to be considered true and accurate to the best of GGS’s knowledge; which is, consistent with the certification statement that accompanies any 40 CFR Part 75 submission.Ed Going Grayling Generating Station Page 3 of 4 June 18, 2021 = = ) ,G... <JC- - J::: mc )G )1( J::: ,).1.(.

Enclosed are copies of the instantaneous and six-minute average readings taken at Carmeuse Lime & Stone. Rule 901 In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the dust fallout observed was of sufficient intensity, frequency and duration so as to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 (and Special Condition 1.6 of PTI No. 15-20). The AQD staff observed dust fallout on multiple properties located southeast of the facility on E Parrish Point Road. Multiple property owners were interviewed with reports of dust on houses, decks, and garages on multiple occasions during west and northwest wind conditions. There were also reports of intense dust plumes during strong wind conditions making it difficult to be outside at the time of occurrence.

These tanks are part of a larger project, which was permitted under PTI # 16-19A, but were not included in the PTI application and were, therefore, not reviewed during the permitting process. During the meeting, staff was informed of the following violations: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Two acetone process tanks R 336.1201 (Rule 201) Two acetone tanks were installed without a PTI. During this meeting, it was noted that the facility had installed unpermitted equipment at this facility.

An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant.

As required by Rule 210(2), this letter is to notify you of this finding and to specify the discrepancies and all supplemental materials needed for an administratively complete application from the facility. The application is deficient for the following reason(s): Part E. No.E4 should have been marked with a “Yes” regarding EUENGINECITB(16). On January 25, 2017, a notice of change per Rule 215(1) was received for the shutdown and removal by January 31, 2017 of EUENGINECITB(16). Part H.

On February 1, 2017, a notice of change per Rule 215(3) was received for the installation of a new emission unit in Bay 5 of EUENGINE5 (CAT Model 3516 LE, manufacture date: 1995). EUENGINE5 is subject to 40 CFR 63, Subpart ZZZZ as a new Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engine (RICE). Bay 5 was empty for longer than 18-months and any emission unit installed in the bay is a new emission unit. EUENGINE5 was installed in Bay 5 as a new emission unit with an installation date of January 31, 2017. Information about EUENGINE5 was listed in No. H17 incorrectly in the ROP renewal application.

Be advised that, per Rule 285(2)(l)(vi), the requirement of Rule 201(1) to obtain a permit to install does not apply to equipment used for the surface grinding of metals that have externally vented emissions controlled by an appropriately designed and operated fabric filter collector that is preceded by a mechanical pre-cleaner and that is not excluded from exemption per Rule 278. Prior to the inspection at Ellsworth Cutting Tools, a complaint investigation was conducted at a neighboring property. The complainant alleged that fallout from Ellsworth Cutting Tools was infiltrating their property and depositing on various surfaces. During this inspection AQD staff noticed a significant amount of fallout deposited on the complainant’s property. AQD staff obtained a sample of the fallout from the complainant’s property and compared it to dust collected from the cyclone dust collector hopper associated with the metal grinding operations at Ellsworth Cutting Tools. The results of this analysis showed that the fallout inside the complainant’s property has very similar characteristics as the grinding dust in the hopper at Ellsworth Cutting Tools. In the professional judgement of AQD staff, the dust fallout that was observed at the complainant’s location was of sufficient intensity, frequency, and duration to constitute a violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451.

Based on the notification received, staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Emergency Generator 40 CFR 60.4211(f)(2) The facility operated a 335 hp, diesel-fired emergency generator, installed December 2011, for a total of 106.7 hours for non- emergency situations, maintenance and testing, and emergency demand response during calendar year 2020. This is 6.7 hours over the allowed 100 hours of operating time. The notification received from the company indicated that one of the diesel-fired emergency generators at the facility exceeded the 100 hour run time limitation in 40 CFR Subpart ZZZZ, 63.6640(2). The exceedance occurred due to a programming error, and as a result the generator was regularly switching on and off during weekends throughout the fall and winter of this year. According to the notification from the facility, the programming error has already been corrected and the facility’s Standard Operating Procedure was updated to prevent this violation from recurring in the future. 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Peter L.

This is a failure to operate and maintain the air cleaning device in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the rules and existing law. EUBOF ROP No. MI-ROP- A8640- From the 4th quarter of 2015 2016a, Section 1, GCs 19, 21, through the 1st quarter of and 23; 2020, each quarterly COMS opacity report contains R 336.1213(3)(c); exceedances of the 20% 6- minute average opacity limit R 336.1213(4)(c) from the ESP stack yet these exceedances are not identified as deviations in the semi-annual and annual ROP certifications. This is a failure by the Responsible Official to accurately and completely report deviations which should have been reported. R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, GC 11 state, in part, that a person “shall not cause or permit to be discharged into the outer air from a process or process equipment a visible emission of a density greater than the most stringent of the following: a 6-minute average of 20% opacity, except for one 6-minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity.” AK Steel is required to maintain and operate a COMS in the ESP stack. Per Consent Decree Civil Action No. 15-cv-11804, VI.B.20, AK Steel is required to submit quarterly COMS data reports. Reports include each instance in which the 6-minute block average reading of opacity by the COMS exceeds 20%. For the 3rd quarter of 2020, after correcting for the exception allowed within R 336.1301(1)(a): “one 6 minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity” and excluding calibration checks, there were 29 exceedances reported. Each of these exceedances is a violation of R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, GC 11. It should be noted that the BOF and ESP were not in operation until July 27, 2020 of the third quarter.Mr. LaDale Combs AK Steel Dearborn Works Page 3 January 5, 2021 ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, EUBOF, SC IV.1 requires that the permittee shall not operate EUBOF unless the ESP is installed and operating properly. Similarly, R 336.1910 requires that an air-cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the AQD rules and existing law. The ESP is an air-cleaning device. Based on the continuing opacity exceedances, the ESP is not being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. As such, AK Steel is in violation of MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, EUBOF, SC IV.1, and R 336.1910. Furthermore, COMS measurements are a direct compliance method for opacity as allowed in R 336.1303 and in the Integrated Iron and Steel MACT. As such, the opacity exceedances as measured by COMS represent violations which are deviations from the ROP requirements. AQD rules R 336.1213(3)(c) and R 336.1213(4)(c) require the reporting of deviations not less than once every 6 months, and annually, and the report to be certified by the facility’s responsible official for its truth, accuracy, and completeness after reasonable inquiry. These requirements are also incorporated into the ROP at GCs 19, 21, and 23. None of the exceedances identified in the quarterly COMS reports, starting in the 4th quarter of 2015 through the 1st quarter of 2020 are included in the semi-annual or annual deviation reports. Therefore, the AQD concludes the Responsible Official failed to submit accurate and complete reports. Notwithstanding this position, at a minimum, COMS opacity exceedances represent credible evidence and “any other material information” as referenced in 40 CFR 70.6(c)(5)(iii)(B) that are required to be assessed through reasonable inquiry when certifying compliance on a semi-annual and annual basis. However, in each instance where the COMS recorded an opacity exceedance and the facility subsequently determined that the exceedance was not cause by steam interference, the facility failed to take any further action to determine the BOF ESP’s compliance with Rule 336.1301. Due to the failure to perform reasonable inquiry, each exceedance represents a violation of Rule 336.1301(1)(a) and should have been reported in the semi-annual and annual deviation reports. Therefore, in this scenario, the AQD also concludes that the Responsible Official failed to submit accurate and complete reports. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by January 26, 2021 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The notification was provided as required by Renewable Operation Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N6944-2017, General Condition 25. Based on the notification received, AQD identified the following violations: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Facility-wide Emissions MI-ROP-N6944-2017 On December 6, 2020, the facility FG-FACILITY SC I.2 produced an excess of extruded rolls, resulting in volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions that exceeded the 8-hr VOC emission limit. Ionization Control System MI-ROP-N6944-2017 The excess production of FG-FACILITY SC IV.1 extruded rolls did not allow for R 336.1910 adequate air mixing, as is required for proper operation of the ionization control system. The notification from the facility indicated that due to COVID guidelines, employees could not report to work. As a result of this staffing shortage, employees were moved from other sections of the facility to work on the extrusion lines. This resulted in the production of extruded rolls that were unable to be processed. The accumulation of unprocessed scrap and extruded rolls on the plant floor led to high VOC emissions at the facility. Once employees became aware of the elevated VOC emissions, the extrusion lines were shut down and the excess extruded rolls were processed. Following these changes, VOC emissions returned below permitted amounts. Based on the information provided by the facility, AQD determined that Pregis exceeded the 476 lb/8-hr facility-wide VOC limit in MI-ROP-N6944-2017. The 8-hr rolling total VOC emissions, calculated each hour, exceeded this limit from 3:00 p.m. on December 6, 2020 to 27700 DONALD COURT • WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 586-753-3700Mr. John Von Zellen Pregis Page 2 December 16, 2020 9:00 a.m. on December 7, 2020. VOC emissions ranged between 484.3 lbs/8-hr and 590.4 lbs/8-hr during this time period. The information in the notification also indicates that the Ionization Control System was not properly operated. The overproduction and accumulation of foam on the plant floor resulted in inadequate ion distribution and mixing of the ions and room air. This constitutes a violation of MI-ROP-N6944-2017, FG-FACILITY SC IV.1, as well as Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Please submit a written response to this Violation Notice by January 6, 2021 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). Since the facility has already notified the department of the duration and resolution of the violation, the written response should include a summary of the actions that are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence of the violation. The facility should also update its Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP) to address this type of malfunction event.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine FPT’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules, and to investigate a recent complaint which was received on October 28, 2020 regarding opacity at FPT. During the complaint investigation and site visit, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Torch Cutting Operations R 336.1201(1) Installation of a non-portable torch cutting operation, without enclosure or particulate control. During the site visit, it was noted that FPT had installed and commenced operation of a torch cutting operation and associated fuel tanks. Historical satellite views of the site available on Google Earth indicates that the torch cutting fuel tanks were installed sometime after March 2020, while the plate on the fuel tanks indicate a manufacture year of 2019. The torch cutting operations do not meet the permit to install (PTI) exemption for torch cutting listed below. R 336.1285(2)(j) - The requirement of R 336.1201(1) to obtain a permit to install does not apply to any of the following: (j) Portable torch cutting equipment that does not cause a nuisance or adversely impact surrounding areas and is used for either of the following: (i) Activities performed on a non-production basis, such as maintenance, CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 313-456-4700Ms. Lisa Carroll Ferrous Processing and Trading Page 2 November 9, 2020 repair, and dismantling. (ii) Scrap metal recycling and/or demolition activities that have emissions that are released only into the general in-plant environment and/or that have externally vented emissions equipped with an appropriately designed and operated enclosure and fabric filter. The torch cutting operations at FPT are not portable, as the fuel tanks are stationary and would take significant deconstruction to move to a new location. Additionally, the operations are outdoors and any emissions are released to the ambient air (not an in- plant environment; no enclosure with a fabric filter installed). AQD staff advised Ms. Carroll on October 29, 2020, that this is a violation of R 336.1201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the torch cutting operations. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that R 336.1201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant.

During this call, AQD was informed that DTE Energy had required a forced shut down of the Arbor Hills Energy (AHE) plant on September 23, 2020, which extended until September 24, 2020. AQD then requested submittal of the flare and plant operations data for the subject dates. On September 28, 2020, AQD received an email from ADS with the requested information for the AHLF flare compound. They also informed AQD that an apparent malfunction occurred involving the two enclosed flares during the period of the AHE plant shutdown and transition to the backup AHLF flare operation. On September 29, 2020, AQD received an email from ADS with the requested AHE plant operations data for the same period. Based on the operations data received and reviewed, the two enclosed flares failed to reach and maintain required minimum operating temperature, triggering several alarms and periodic shutdowns/start-ups. The flares failed to operate as designed resulting in a period when the overall flaring capacity was much less than the normal gas flow generated by the landfill. The AQD is requiring that ADS review their existing Start up, Shutdown, Malfunction Abatement Plan (SSM) in accordance with 40 CFR 63.1960, for required revision and update as necessary based on this event. The AQD is requiring that ADS written response (below) include revising the SSM to include a monthly systems operation audit/check of all 3 flares, their control systems, and associated blowers and ductwork. All equipment should be operated simultaneously at full load once a month to make sure everything is working properly when and if the transition to a full operational mode occurs in the future. This is meant to prevent reoccurrence of what occurred during previous events. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by November 4, 2020, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whetherMr. David Seegert Arbor Hills Landfill, Advanced Disposal Services Page 3 October 14, 2020 the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The AQD staff advised Quikrete-Flint on September 24, 2020, that installation of new unpermitted sand drying equipment, and modification of the EU-Process baghouse dust collector is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the new sand drying process equipment and modification of the EU- Process permit specified baghouse dust collector. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Per this inspection and video conference on October 1, 2020, the AQD staff determined that Quikrete-Flint was operating EU-Process while the permit specified baghouse dust collector was disconnected and had rerouted exhaust gases from EU-Process to the EU-Dryer cyclone and wet scrubber in-series control devices.

On December 10, 2019, the pressure drop reading was 1 inch water, which is outside of the range specified in the approved MAP (2 inches to 6 inches water). The MAP specifies the following for out of range operations. “If below the minimum acceptable gauge reading, call the Maintenance Department. Maintenance checks, as necessary, for improper operation of gauges, bag condition, excessive dust in the dust collector hopper, improper operation of dampers, improper operation of shaker cleaning system, damaged ductwork, high humidity in exhaust air. Determine what the problem is and repair it.” In addition, within Section 2 of the MAP AmeriTi states that “If AmeriTi’s monitoring shows the APC [Air Pollution Control] operating parameter identified in this section falls outside of these operating ranges, AmeriTi will initiate reactive maintenance responses (see Section 7)” and, within Section 7, that “AmeriTi will maintain a record of the corrective ‘response actions’ taken when reactive maintenance response is required”. Within the records provided by AmeriTi there are no maintenance activities for the out of range pressure drop reading on December 10, 2019. Therefore, the facility is not implementing and maintaining the MAP and is in violation of SC III.1. The lack of maintenance records for the out of range pressure drop is also a violation of SC VI.2.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine Lacks Enterprises, lnc.'s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451 ); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N0895-2018a.

This constitutes a violation of ROP No. MI-ROP-N0895-2018a, EUPN-10 and 12, SC 111.3 and Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, STATE OFFICE BUILDING• 350 OTTAWA AVENUE, NW• UNIT 10 • GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN 49503-2341 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 616-356-0500Mr. Jim Morrissey Lacks Enterprises, Inc Page 2 September 14, 2020 which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Pursuant to 40 CFR 63.342(1), the AQD finds that the existing Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Plan has failed to provide for the proper operation of the affected source in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practices. As such, the AQD is requesting that Lacks Enterprises, Inc. conduct the following: Modify the existing O&M Plan to increase the frequency of inspections of the hexavalent chrome plating scrubber from quarterly to monthly. In addition to the increased frequency, Lacks will need to modify the plan to include a checklist that identifies individual components of the scrubber for inspection. The modified plan shall also include the requirement for generating visual documentation of each component of the unit, using photographic means. Using this method will support two things: 1) ensure the inspections are conducted thoroughly and completely and 2) provide evidence of the timeframe of any structural issues that may appear over time. The modified plan should also include a training module for all Lacks staff that are conducting the inspections of the control equipment. All documentation generated during the monthly O&M inspections shall be maintained on file for a minimum of five years and made available upon request. The modified plan shall be submitted to the AQD upon completion, but no later than October 31, 2020. While the hexavalent chrome etch process is not subject to 40 CFR Part 63, the AQD is requesting the same modifications to the O&M Plan/Malfunction Abatement Plan for the scrubber associated with that process pursuant to Rule 911. The modified plan shall be submitted to the AQD upon completion, but no later than October 31, 2020. Hexavalent decorative chrome plating tanks #1 and #3 combined exceeded the surface tension limit 14 times during January-June 2020. This is a violation of the permit and Rule 910. Lacks utilizes both fume suppressant and a composite mesh pad scrubber during stack testing to demonstrate compliance with the emission limit. Finally, it was noted during the inspection that the rocks on the roof in the area surrounding EUPN-6, the electroless copper process, were exhibiting a green discoloration. In the response to this letter, please include the findings of Lacks Enterprises, lnc.'s investigation discussed during the inspection as to the cause of the discoloration. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by October 5, 2020 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Though the odor could not be confirmed at the time, the following violations of the air permit are cited.

Additionally, the destruction efficiency of the paint line incinerator was not being considered. Obviously, the resulting emissions are far less than records indicated. In the absence of the environmental contact, it should be noted ensuing discussions revealed the existing stack heights are the result of proximity to an airport. To rectify the situation, the path forward is felt to be applying for a new site specific permit for existing stack conditions. If a new permit is granted, it would contain its own special conditions including record keeping requirements.

On February 2, 2020, the AQD emailed the following request to Premier Finishes LLC, “Per PTI No. 36-18, FGBOOTHS, VII.1, please continue to submit monthly paint and cleaning solvent logs through December 2020.” Premier Finishes LLC failed to submit records on a monthly basis from February through June 2020, as required per PTI No. 36-18 FGBOOTHS Special Condition VII.1, and ACO AQD Condition No. 9.C.1. The aforementioned failures to submit reports are violations of the reporting requirements specified in Special Condition VII.1 of PTI number 36.18 and ACO AQD No. 2019-05, paragraph 9.C.1., which states, “Per PTI No. 36-18 FGBOOTHS Special Condition VII.1, The permittee shall submit reports on a monthly basis for the first 12 months after permit issuance, quarterly reports for the following 12 months after permit issuance and reports every six months thereafter. After a minimum of one (1) year of six-month reporting, the company may petition the AQD District Supervisor to reduce the frequency of reporting and/or request to terminate reporting. If at any time the reporting/recordkeeping is found to be unsatisfactory or is not submitted within the required timeframe, the AQD may require the permittee to submit monthly reports for a minimum of 12 months and then resume six- month reporting if the monthly reports are deemed satisfactory. All reports shall be submitted to the AQD District Supervisor by the 15th of the following month for the previous month records.” From August 30, 2019, through August 7, 2020, Premier Finishes LLC failed to maintain, in a satisfactory manner, the exhaust system on the double-wide spray booth. The exhaust system malfunction caused the spray booth pressure drop gage to indicate an exceedance of the manufacturer’s operating specifications.

This triggered applicability of the daily volume-weighted average coating content limit in Table 66 of Rule 632. The applicable VOC daily volume-weighted average limit of 5.0 lb/gal (minus water) as applied was exceeded in February - June 2019. After a new PTI was issued in July 2019, EU-LINE4 continued to exceed the applicable daily volume-weighted average limit. A & K Finishing began using coatings with a low VOC content in September 2019 to reduce the daily volume-weighted averaged use on EU-LINE4. A Meaningful Change demonstration was requested; however, it was not done correctly, and compliance could not be determined. Furthermore, using a 16 year-old and 13 year-old Safety Data Sheet to demonstrate compliance is not acceptable and does not meet permit requirements for formulation data. Finally, it was noted that 8 coatings voe being used are above the 6.5 lb/gallon content limit per PTI No. 21-0?D, FGFACILITY, SC 11.1. In 2018, A & K Finishing received AQD permission to utilize formulation data to determine the volatile organic compound (VOC) content of coatings. During the inspection, ii was discovered that A & K Finishing is not using formulation data to determine this information for the majority of the coatings evaluated. Therefore, A & K Finishing must determine VOC content, for a certain amount of coatings annually, using Reference Method 24 as per PTI No. 21-0?D, FG-COAT, SC V.1. Since formulation data is required for determining the hazardous air pollutant (HAP) content in FGFACILITY, SC V.1, and it is not being conducted, A & K Finishing must determine HAP content, for a certain amount of coatings annually, using Reference Method 311. A coating sampling plan shall be submitted to the Grand Rapids District Supervisor for approval by September 15, 2020.Mr. Scott Hancamp A & K Finishing, Inc.

The purpose of this review is to ensure a complete application is received by the permitting section with accurate facility and process information. The facility is also required to comply with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and all other applicable state and federal rules. During the review, staff discovered the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Melt furnace #5 Rule 336.201(1) The facility began installation of melt furnace #5 before a decision was made, by the department, on an applied for construction waiver. Degassing Stations Rule 336.201(1)(b) The facility modified the originally permitted process in PTI 166-13 using nitrogen in the degassing station, resulting in no regulated pollutants being emitted, to fluxing in the degassing station, which is emitted uncontrolled from the stack, resulting in regulated pollutants being emitted to the outside air. This change to the process was made without first obtaining a permit or modifying the existing permit. The facility applied for a construction waiver on July 9, 2020 to begin construction on two new melt furnaces and an associated degassing station. Requested PTE calculations were received 7953 ADOBE ROAD • KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 269-567-3500Mr. Nick Ponstein Cosma Casting Michigan Page 2 August 14, 2020 on Friday August 7, 2020. By law, the waiver must be approved or denied within 30 days of receipt of the waiver request. Based on information known at the time, the waiver was denied. This was due to the facility’s PTE showing they are a major source of HAPs and the facility possibly being subject to 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart RRR. A construction waiver cannot be issued if the facility is a major source of HAPs and is subject to any NESHAP in 40 CFR Part 63 or Part 61. During the on-site visit on August 13, 2020, it was noted that the #5 melting furnace had been installed at the facility. Based on observations, the furnace was in place, bolted to the floor, and a stack had been constructed through the roof. According to the facility, the furnace was on site and placed on August 4, 2020, before the waiver request was denied. This constitutes a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. During this application review, it was noted that the process identified as degassing in the original application had been modified significantly from the process that is currently happening at the facility. This is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. Specifically, during the permitting process for PTI 166-13, the process for degassing was described as molten aluminum is tapped out from the furnaces and transferred to the degassing station, where nitrogen gas is used. No regulated air pollutants are emitted from the degassing process. The current practice at the facility is molten aluminum is tapped out from the furnaces and transferred to the degassing station where COVERAL GR 2531 flux is used. This results in air pollutants being emitted, uncontrolled, from the process, including Hydrogen Fluoride and Hydrochloric Acid, hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the existing degassing process equipment. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Based on the provided facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration for all pollutants at the source as requested by the Department to process PTI 166-13D, the facility is a major source of HAPs. Steps need to be taken to obtain facility-wide HAP out-out limits or comply with the Title V, Renewable Operating Permit program and 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart RRR for secondary aluminum processing.Mr. Nick Ponstein Cosma Casting Michigan Page 3 August 14, 2020 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by September 2, 2020 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The purpose of this records request was to determine Michigan Foam Products, LLC's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 211-02D. During the review of the records provided, staff noted the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUPLASTICRESI N PTI No. 211-02D, Exceeded 8-hour voe EUPLASTICRESIN, Special emission limit Condition (SC) 1.2 EUPLASTICRESIN PTI No. 211-02D, Not following the AQD EUPLASTICRESIN, SC V.1 annroved samolina schedule It was brought to the AQD's attention by Michigan Foam Products, LLC, that their 8-hour volatile organic compound (VOC) emission limit had been exceeded. A subsequent request and review of records from April 2020 through June 2020 identified four times that the 8-hour VOC emission limit was exceeded. This is a violation of PTI No. 211-02D, EUPLASTICRESIN, SC 1.2. The 2019-2020 pentane sampling results were requested to review and verify compliance. Upon review of the test results, it was determined that Michigan Foam Products, LLC had mistakenly selected the most used bead types from 2020 instead of 2019 to determine the production-weighted average VOC content of product from EUPLASTICRESIN for the year 2019. Additionally, the samples for 2020 were submitted late to be tested. Based on the information provided, Michigan Foam Products, LLC did not follow their sampling plan dated November 16, 2016 for the year 2020 and this is a violation of PTI No. 211-02D, EUPLASTICRESIN, SC V.1.

The report was reviewed to determine if this facility was in compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N2688-2011a; National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Municipal Solid Waste Landfills 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart AAAA (NESHAP AAAA); and the Federal New Source Performance Standard for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW (NSPS WWW).

The report, in part outlined liquid level in the gas wells determined from liquid level sounding data obtained in the 1st Quarter of 2020. It showed that at least 185 vertical gas wells had more than 50% of the well screen blocked by liquid. 48 vertical wells were listed as having at least 100% of the well screen submerged. 73 vertical gas wells were listed as needing to be completely replaced. More than 80 wells that despite having existing liquid pumps installed, still have more than 50% of the screen flooded. Furthermore, of the 192 vertical wells listed as having pumps, nearly half of the pumps had operational problems over the January to April 2020 reporting period. It is noted that the design for vertical gas extraction wells includes an estimated radius of influence (ROI) which is based in part on the length of perforated pipe available for gas flow. A substantially flooded well will be limited in its ROI and this will lead to gaps in gas collection coverage and lead to surface breakouts of landfill gas. Furthermore, the long-term presence of liquid can contribute to fouling of the stone and well screen, reducing the effectiveness of these wells over time. Finally, the presence of high levels of liquid in the landfill raises concerns about landfill slope stability. Review of the liquid level data of all the vertical wells shows a continuation of elevated liquid levels that has been ongoing since at least 2016. This despite a new gas well dewatering program implemented by the Company in the Spring of 2019, which included repairing/installing new liquid well pumps and an improvement in the air pressure across the landfill used to activate the pumps. To date, the Company has yet to submit an acceptable dewatering program that would result in actual dewatering/improvement of impaired vertical wells. Further, on June 25, 2020, the AQD conducted and abbreviated methane surface emission monitoring (SEM) survey and found nineteen areas with surface methane concentrations greater than 500 ppm most of which were in the north part of the landfill. Many of these methane surface exceedances appear to occur above areas with flooded wells showing that the GCCS system remains impaired.

The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

As part of this response to the January 29, 2020 VN previously sent by the AQD, actual emission recordkeeping was provided. These records were subsequently reviewed by the AQD to determine Mold Masters' compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 368-08C.

The highest single value reported was 12.31 tons, for the 12-month rolling time period ending in March, 2020. Having actual emissions above the major source threshold of 10 tons per year for a single Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP) has made the facility a major source of HAP emissions.

Therefore, Mold Masters must either apply for a ROP, or take measures to restrict its potential and actual emissions from exceeding the major source HAP threshold. The compliance program which was provided with the June 19, 2020 response to the January 29, 2020 Violation Notice (VN) from the AQD, has detailed an acceptable plan for Mold Masters to return to compliance with the limit of 9.0 TPY for a single HAP contained within PTI No. 368-06C, Special Condition FGFacility I. 1. Compliance with this limit will allow Mold Masters to stay below the major source thresholds, eliminating the need to obtain a ROP. Therefore, no further written response is necessary to today’s VN.

Enclosed are copies of the instantaneous and six-minute average readings taken from offsite on May 4, 2020. The highest 6-minute averages were as follows: • Page 1; highest 6-minute average opacity reading: 32.71%; from 11:11:15 AM to 11:17:00 AM • Page 1; second highest 6-minute average opacity reading: 31.67%, from 11:11:00 AM to 11:16:45 AM. • Page 2; highest 6-minute average opacity reading: 27.5%; from 11:27:15 AM to 11:33:00 AM. • Page 2; second highest 6-minute average opacity reading: 26.25%; from 11:26:15 AM to 11:32:00 AM. The visible emissions described above exceed the opacity limit and violate the Michigan State Implementation Plan (SIP), R336.1301(a).

Paragraph 21 of ACO-EPA-5-15-113(a)-MI-02 states, “By the effective date of this Order, RJ must achieve, demonstrate and maintain order with the Michigan SIP at its Battle Creek and Flint facilities.” The opacity observed from the Flint facility on May 4, 2020, exceeded the opacity limit of Rule 301 from the Michigan SIP. Therefore, the Michigan SIP has not been complied with, in violation of the ACO. Paragraph 22 of ACO-EPA-5-15-113(a)-MI-02 states, “By the effective date of this Order, RJ shall comply with the best management practices for torch-cutting operations, as described in Appendix A, at its Battle Creek and Flint facilities.” The opacity which was observed on May 4, 2020, does not represent best management practices.

For the 1st quarter of 2020, after correcting for the exception allowed within R 336.1301(1)(a): “one 6 minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity” and excluding calibration checks, there were 71 exceedances reported. Each of these exceedances is a violation of R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, GC 11. ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, EUBOF, SC IV.1 requires that the permittee shall not operate EUBOF unless the ESP is installed and operating properly. Similarly, R 336.1910 requires that an air-cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law. The ESP is an air-cleaning device. Based on the continuing opacity exceedances, the ESP is not being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. As such, AK Steel is in violation of MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, EUBOF, SC IV.1, and R 336.1910. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by August 5, 2020 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

(SMC) located at 16000 Bells Bay Road, Charlevoix, Michigan. This reporting is required by Permit to Install (PTI) 140-15; Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 63, Subpart LLL; Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) Number MI-ROP-B1559-2014; and Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules. This reporting was sent in response to a Violation Notice sent March 25, 2020, citing St. Mary’s Cement, Inc. for unacceptable emissions limit compliance testing for Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants (OHAPs). This previously cited violation is as follows: Process Rule/Permit Comments I Description I Condition Violated I EUINLINEKILN 40 CFR 63.1343(b)(1), Table 1 Testing performed for compliance with the Organic Hazardous Air Pollutant (OHAP) emission limit is not acceptable. A review of this revised reporting has demonstrated that it does not resolve the violation cited, and therefore the response to the March 25 Violation Notice has been considered insufficient. The methodology and reported results for total xylenes, while not ideal, are acceptable for this testing event. Following is a summary of the initial rejection justifications and reported revisions in question that are not acceptable, and the justification to reject these revisions:  Naphthalene was not included in the laboratory analysis. The amended reporting indicated that naphthalene was reported through a surrogate and not measured directly. Determination of a pollutant concentration through a surrogate is not addressed in USEPA Method 18 and, therefore, must be approved prior to testing per 40 CFR 63.1341 and 40 CFR 63.7(e)(2)(ii) and (f).  Collected condensate containers arrived at the contract laboratory with headspace. The amended reporting indicated that, while the headspace in the condensate containers was observed, amended, and accounted for at the contract laboratory prior to analysis, data would indicate no significant difference in the results. The compounds to be analyzed for 120 WEST CHAPIN STREET • CADILLAC, MICHIGAN 49601-2158 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 231-775-3960Mr. Matthew Simon St. Mary’s Cement Page 2 June 4, 2020 this testing by Method 18 are essentially insoluble in water. Because of this, it is accepted practice to ensure no headspace is in the collection vessels at the completion of sample collection as some of these compounds will readily diffuse out of solution into the headspace and not accounted for in the analysis. The laboratory identified this error upon receipt, correctly amended it by adding water to remove the headspace and compensating for the additional volume of the sample when reporting the results. Regarding the point that these potential losses would make no significant difference, it should be noted that the emission limit as stated in 40 CFR 63.1343(b)(1), Table 1 for OHAP, is 12 parts per million by volume on a dry gas basis (ppmvd) and the testing result, when accounting for significant figures, is 12 ppmvd.  Quality assurance analyte spiking of collected condensate was not performed. The amended reporting references page 209 of the testing report as indication of analyte spiking. Method 18, Section 8.2.4. requires that spiking of the carbon tubes and the condensate collection vessels be performed prior to the sampling event. The referenced spiking on this page is the internal laboratory quality assurance spiking which occurred at the laboratory after the sampling event.  Styrene and Naphthalene spiking in the activated carbon collection tubes did not meet acceptable quality assurance recovery standards. The acceptable range for spike recovery per Method 18 is between 70% and 130%. The reported spike recoveries for Styrene and Naphthalene were 48% and 21% respectively. The spike recovery values are acknowledged in the revised reporting to be outside of acceptable ranges pursuant the Method 18. Method 18, 8.4.3.1 states that if the spike recoveries are outside of these ranges, the sampling methodology is not acceptable. Also, it is suggested in the revised reporting, and the AQD agrees, that an alternative method should have been used for this sampling and should have been proposed and approved prior to testing.  No analysis regarding breakthrough of the activated carbon collection tubes was performed. There are some inconsistencies in the explanation provided. The protocol for this testing was not formally reviewed or approved by the AQD as the timelines listed in the protocol itself and Michigan Air Pollution Control Rule R 336.2001 were not adhered to. Specifically, the protocol was submitted less than 30 days prior to the testing event. In communications prior to testing and upon review of the protocol after the fact, there is no mention of the caveat of breakthrough analysis and how that will be addressed. Please submit a written response to this Violation Notice by August 4, 2020 (which coincides with 30 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: a summary of the actions that are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place.

(Facility) located at 429 Fourth Street, Three Rivers, Michigan. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate a recent complaint that EGLE, AQD received on March 10 and March 11, 2020 regarding fallout damage to vehicles located at 642 Spring Street and 623 Spring Street, Three Rivers, Michigan that was attributed to foundry operations. On March 10 and 11, 2020 EGLE, AQD staff received similar complaints stating that damage had been done to vehicles’ finish at the addresses listed above. When staff arrived on site, complainant stated that the car was used but had been recently purchased, within the past year. Staff observed blue and orange specks that were described in the complaint. The blue and orange spots did not rub off and you could feel their indentation on the chrome. The complainant stated that she noticed the specks on Tuesday, the previous day. Staff took photos of the vehicle, two of the back windshield, one of the driver’s side chrome window detailing, and one of the passenger side chrome window detailing. Staff also collected a fallout sample from the complainant’s windshield. A site visit was conducted as part of the complaint investigation to retrieve copies of visible emissions, pressure drop, and visolite records as well as obtain samples. Samples were taken from the North Fuller baghouse and the East/West Fuller baghouse. Additional records were emailed on March 12, 20, 23, and 24, 2020. Records show that on February 25, 2020 abnormal visible emissions were recorded on both the East/West Fuller baghouse and North Fuller baghouse. The plant was shut down and baghouses checked. Visolite was used on East/West Fuller baghouse. No bad bags were found. Facility vacuumed cleaned the sides of the collectors. North Fuller was pulsed down to clear the bags and vacuumed cleaned the sides. Records also showed that on February 27, 2020, abnormal visible emissions were again recorded on both the East/West Fuller baghouse and North Fuller baghouse.

Page 2 May 11, 2020 plant was shut down, visolite was used on both baghouses, and suspect bags were replaced. Meteorological data from the area indicated that all day Tuesday February 25, 2020, through 6am Wednesday February 26, 2020 the wind was in the correct direction to blow toward the complainants’ residences. Wind speed on that day gusted between 17 and 25 miles per hour. Enclosed sample results concluded that all three samples taken on March 12, 2020 contained particles that were consistent with steel manufacturing. The sample taken from the car windshield was more similar to the particles found inside East/West Fuller baghouse than the North Fuller baghouse due to the presence of tubular, blue colored, rod-like particles with lines and texture on the surface which were only found in the East/West baghouse. The particles taken from the windshield were also smaller than those taken from either baghouse. This is consistent with the likelihood that the particles deposited on the windshield, which are, for the most part, smaller than the two possible sources, likely were carried in air. Based on vehicle paint finish damage at the complainant’s house, favorable meteorological conditions (wind direction and speed) within the time period identified by the complainant, sample analytical results, and identified baghouse control issues that coincides within the same time period, staff of EGLE, AQD is citing the following violations: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments FGEWFULLER - Casting Rule901(b)/MI-ROP-B2015- Particulate emissions accumulator, transfer, shot 2019, Part A, General attributed to the sand reclaim drum magnet, Condition No. 12.b FGEWFULLER East West sand screens, and Fuller baghouse exhaust separators Consent Order AQD No. damaged the paint finish 2018-20, Paragraph 9.A. on the complainant's vehicles causing an unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.

The last report the AQD received was in April 2013 for the March 2013 data. Reports were not submitted from May 2013 through December 2019. For the purposes of the December 20, 2019 inspection compliance check, the 2014 – 2019 reports were supplied however, a violation still exists for failure to submit these reports according to the timelines specified in PTI 28-10 over the past 6+ years. The AQD acknowledges that monthly reports have been submitted in January and February for December 2019 and January 2020 emissions, respectively. PTI 28-10 Monitoring/Recordkeeping Special Condition VI.2 requires that flow rate and the VOC and vinyl chloride concentrations of the influent stream to EUSOIL be monitored on a quarterly basis by sampling and testing the influent gas stream. Review of records found that these 2 parameters were monitored less frequently than quarterly. This is a violation of Special Condition VI.2 PTI 28-10 Reporting Special Condition VII.1 requires that the monthly reports be submitted using Appendix 1 of the PTI, which establishes an equation that uses a 95% control efficiency for the dual-stage carbon absorption system. Records review showed that emissions were not calculated according to Appendix 1 of PTI 28-10. All VOC emissions reported were assumed to be 0, with 100% control efficiency. Additionally, the “Daily Operations & Maintenance Log” reviews showed that the effluent, as determined by PID, had detectable ppm concentrations of VOC. Failure to calculate emissions according to Appendix 1 of PTI 28-10 is a violation of Special Condition VII.1. PTI 28-10 Testing/Sampling Special Condition V.1 requires that testing for breakthrough of the first canister be conducted at least once every two weeks. Review of 2017 – 2019 “Operations & Maintenance Log” records (where influent, midfluent and carbon changeout records are kept for this source) showed that testing for breakthrough of the first canister was not consistently conducted every two weeks. Additionally, Testing/Sampling Special Condition V.1 requires that the carbon in the first canister beMr. Thomas Anderson Bodycote Thermal Processing, Inc. Page 3 May 6, 2020 changed if breakthrough is detected. Breakthrough is defined by PTI 28-10 as a reading at the point between the first and second canisters that is 20% or more of the influent concentration into the first canister. Detection of breakthrough events, according to PTI 28-10, can be done using a hand-held instrument capable of detecting concentrations at the levels expected. ASI staff indicated that a PID is used with a detection limit of 100 ppb, which is within the levels they expect to see from this system. Review of “Daily Operations and Maintenance Log” 2017 - 2019 records showed that on September 26, 2017; October 15, 2018; May 29, 2019; September 24, 2019; November 15, 2019; and December 27, 2019 breakthrough of the first carbon canister was detected, based on the influent and midfluent concentrations reported via PID readings. The records indicate (by circling “No” to “SVE Carbon Changeout?”) that the carbon was not changed out on these days when breakthrough was detected. These are violations of Special Condition V.1. PTI 28-10 Design/Equipment Parameter Special Condition IV.1 requires that EUSOIL not be operated unless the dual-stage activated carbon system is maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner. Because the carbon was not changed out during breakthrough events, the carbon system was not maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner and therefore this is a violation of Special Condition IV.1. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by May 27, 2020, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; and a summary of the actions that have been taken to correct the violations. The response shall also include proposed actions to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place. If Bodycote plans to proceed with operating EUSOIL under Rule 290, a Rule 290 exemption demonstration should accompany your response and include all required items specified under this Rule for the period of January – April 2020. Please note that if the company chooses to operate under Rule 290 as their compliance plan, they will need to conduct monthly testing of the influent to the remediation system, as well as monthly breakthrough checks on the first stage contactor carbon canister. Monthly influent test results as well as monthly breakthrough check records will be required to be kept, as well as monthly emissions records based on the sampling method of choice (sampling and lab analysis or PID) and the requirements under Rule 290. Emissions reported as “0” will not be acceptable based on the detection limits of the sampling and analytical methods currently used. An alternative option to operating under the Rule 290 exemption would be to apply for a modification to PTI 28-10, in an effort to create a PTI that the company can comply with in the future, and that would be based on current influent data.

No calculations were completed to determine the liquid level over the Cell 1 primary liner. • Leachate head levels on the primary liner exceeded 1 foot in Cell 2 from November 1, 2019 through November 8, 2019. • Leachate head levels on the primary liner exceeded 1 foot in Cell 3 on October 7, 2019, and from October 31, 2019 through November 14, 2019. • Leachate head levels on the primary liner exceeded 1 foot in Cell 4 on October 21, 2019. 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 517-780-7690Mr. Don Kindig Page 2 April 16, 2020 R 299.4432(2). The owner and operator shall monitor the leachate collection system and record…(a) Leachate depths on a schedule that assures compliance with this subrule. • The explanation provided by ADS for different leachate levels for the 2 primary pumps in Cell 2 was due to the pumps being installed at different elevations in the sump. Pumps installed at different elevations would have a consistent difference in level readings. The readings for Cell 2 pumps, however, vary from pump 2 being as much as18.2” higher than pump 1 to pump 2 being as much as 52.9” lower than pump 1. Given the varying differences in elevation readings, it was determined that the leachate depths recorded for Cell 2 were incorrect and did not reflect the actual leachate depths. • Leachate depths were not recorded for Cell 4 from November 26 through December 3. • Leachate depths were not recorded for Cell 5 from June 28 through July 8, 2019, July 26 through August 4, 2019, and August 18 through August 21, 2019. R 299.4432(2). The owner and operator shall monitor the leachate collection system and record…(b) The monthly volume of leachate pumped from all units. • Calculations for the volume of leachate removed from the Cell 1 secondary collection system are incorrect because the leachate levels dropped with no corresponding change in the pump minute meter reading during all or part of June, September, October, November, and December 2019. • Calculations for the volume of leachate removed from the Cell 1 secondary collection system are incorrect because the calculated pump flow rates are inconsistent from month to month when using the recorded pump meter reading and the leachate volumes reported in the Fourth Quarter 2019 Hydrogeologic Monitoring & Statistical Evaluation Report. • Data recorded for the pump meter for the Cell 2 primary and secondary collection systems for December 2019 is insufficient to determine the volume of leachate pumped. • Leachate pump meter readings needed to calculate leachate volume were not recorded for Cell 4 from November 26 through December 3. • Leachate pump meter readings needed to calculate leachate volume were not recorded for Cell 5 from August 18 through August 20.Mr. Don Kindig Page 3 April 16, 2020 R 299.4432(3). The owner and operator of a sanitary landfill that contains a secondary collection system shall…(a) Remove pumpable liquids in the secondary collection system sumps on a frequency that is sufficient to minimize the head on the bottom liner. • Cell 1 approved secondary collection system pump off level is 6”. The Cell 1 secondary collection system pump is not pumping down to 6”, but is shutting off at a much higher elevation. • Cell 1 approved secondary collection system pump on level is 42”. The Cell 1 secondary collection system liquid level exceeded 42” on October 21 without turning on. • Cell 2 approved secondary collection system pump on level is 42”. The Cell 2 secondary collection system liquid level exceeded 42” multiple times in October 2019, and on November 7, 2019 without turning on. • Cell 3 approved secondary collection system pump on level is 36”. The Cell 3 secondary collection system liquid level exceeded 36” on August 26, 2019, October 21, 2019, and November 18, 2019. • Cell 4 approved secondary collection system pump on level is 26”. The Cell 4 secondary collection system liquid level exceeded 26” on June 27 and 28, 2019, August 6 and 7, 2019, October 3-7, 2019, December 5-16, 2019, December 18- 23, 2019, and December 30, 2019. • Cell 5 approved secondary collection system pump on level is 42”.

This cover functions as the idling mode/downtime cover and the working mode cover, under 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T. The cover is intended to function as one of the air pollution controls for the degreaser, but it could not close completely, as there was an opening or gap where the two door panels could not meet. In addition, there was crumbling of trim strips along the edges of the rolling door panels. These defects constitute violations of Section 63.463(e)(iii)(A) & (B), which requires the following: (iii) If a working-mode cover is used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall comply with the requirements specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(iii)(A) and (e)(2)(iii)(B) of this section. (A) Ensure that the cover opens only for part entrance and removal and completely covers the cleaning machine openings when closed. (B) Ensure that the working-mode cover is maintained free of cracks, holes, and other defects. The rolling cover to the degreaser may also be considered an idling mode or downtime cover, under 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T. The inability of the idling mode cover to close completely and the crumbling of trim strips along the edges of the rolling door panels are considered defects by the AQD and are considered violations of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T, Section 63.463(e)(2)(iv)(A) & (B), which requires: (iv) If an idling-mode cover is used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall comply with the requirements specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(iv)(A) and (e)(2)(iv)(B) of this section. (A) Ensure that the cover is in place whenever parts are not in the solvent cleaning machine and completely covers the cleaning machine openings when in place. (B) Ensure that the idling-mode cover is maintained free of cracks, holes, and other defects. Furthermore, the inability of the working mode and idling mode cover to close completely constitutes a violation of Special Condition EU-DEGREASER No. 1.4 of PTI No. 552-81 C, which requires: The permittee shall comply with all provisions of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants as specified in 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts A and T, as they apply to EU-DEGREASER. Lastly, the inability of the working mode cover to close completely constitutes a violation of Michigan Air Pollution Control Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.Ms. Lisa Fisher Allied Motion Page 3 April 9, 2020 Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 30, 2020 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

Based on the emissions you reported above, it appears that your facility becomes a major source due to the significant emissions of VOC as well as HAP(s). Under state Air Pollution Law and the federal Clean Air Act, a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) Program has been developed and implemented in Michigan. This program requires major sources of air emissions to obtain a facility-wide air use permit. This permit serves as a mechanism for consolidating and clarifying all air pollution control requirements which apply to the source. Rule 210(5) of Part 55, Air Pollution control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451) requires major sources to submit an application to the Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD) not more than 12 months after a stationary source commences operation as a major source, as defined by Rule 211(1)(a) of Act 451. As a result of the failure to submit a timely and administratively complete application, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 210(5), this facility has failed to obtain an ""application shield"". Operation of the process or process equipment without the benefit of the application shield constitutes a violation of Rule 210(1) that may result in enforcement action under the provisions of Act 451. Notwithstanding the response to this letter, be advised that the AQD may initiate appropriate enforcement action to address this violation and the action for your unpermitted installation and operation of this process equipment. Furthermore, continued operation of unpermitted equipment is not authorized.Mr. Jeff Jones Conformance Coating and Prototype, Inc. Page 4 April 3, 2020 In addition, please provide a facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration for all pollutants at the source. Information on calculating PTE can be found at http://www/michigan.gov/deqair. Choose the “Permits” Tab, then “Air Permitting- Potential to Emit” under the Air Permitting Assistance Heading. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 24, 2020 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

On February 18, 2020, EGLE received notification from Shape Corporation that the facility had discovered that the wrong exhaust stack had been previously raised and that stacks SV-Oven006 and SV Oven007 were still at original heights of 35-feet. Using the ovens for pultrusion in this manner is a violation of the stack height requirements specified in FG-8umpers, SC Vlll.4 and Vlll.5 of PTI No. 97-178. Although both oven stacks were not at the correct height, only oven seven (007) has been operated for pultrusion and the stack heights are only required to be at 57.5-feet if the oven is being operated for pultrusion under PTI No. 97-178.

Emissions of Mn and Pb at the BOF Shop operations are limited within ROP No. MI- ROP-A8640-2016a, FGBOFSHOP based on the combined value in pounds per hour from the ESP stack and the Secondary Baghouse stack. The limits are 0.067 pph for lead (SC I.10) and 0.10 pph for manganese (SC I.12). AK Steel measured emissions of lead and manganese from the ESP stack and the Secondary Baghouse stack on December 17, 2019, following similar testing conducted by AK Steel on August 13-14, 2019, and September 17, 2019. In each instance the measured emission rate of lead and manganese exceeded the allowed emission limit as documented in the table below: August 2019 September 2019 December 2019 (pph) (pph) (pph) Mn ESP 0.22 0.16 0.17 Mn Secondary BH 0.014 0.004 0.0057 Total Mn 0.23 0.16 0.18 Permit Limit 0.1 0.1 0.1 Pb ESP 0.0921 0.141 0.12 Pb Secondary BH 0.0025 0.017 0.0025 Total Pb 0.095 0.158 0.123 Permit Limit 0.067 0.067 0.067 Each of the three measured emission rates for lead and manganese represents a violation of MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, FGBOFSHOP, SC I.10 and SC I.12 respectively. The violations associated with the August 13-14 and September 17 testing events have been previously documented by the AQD in Violation Notices of November 18, 2019 and November 26, 2019 respectively. Further, it is noted in each case that the measured emissions from the ESP stack, alone, exceed the permitted emission limit for the combined stacks. R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, GC 11 state, in part, that a person “shall not cause or permit to be discharged into the outer air from a process or process equipment a visible emission of a density greater than the most stringent of the following: a 6-minute average of 20% opacity, except for one 6-minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity.” During the August 2019 stack test, a certified Method 9 reader performed visible emissions readings of the ESP stack. Those readings were enclosed in the test report. On August 14, 2019, from 3:25:15 PM to 3:31:00 PM, the 6-minute average opacity wasMr. LaDale Combs AK Steel Dearborn Works Page 4 March 16, 2020 30%. This is a violation of R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, Section 1, GC 11. Additionally, AK Steel is required to maintain and operate a COMS in the ESP stack. Per Consent Decree Civil Action No. 15-cv-11804, VI.B.20, AK Steel is required to submit quarterly COMS data reports. Reports include each instance in which the 6- minute block average reading of opacity by the COMS exceeds 20%. Opacity exceedances reported by AK Steel are summarized in the table below, after correcting for the exception allowed within R 336.1301(1)(a): “one 6-minute average per hour of not more than 27% opacity.” Number of COMS opacity exceedances per quarter 1st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter 4th Quarter 2015 19 2016 127 31 33 125 2017 63 16 18 28 2018 90 41 49 92 2019 313 145 47 65 Each of these exceedances is a violation of R 336.1301(1)(a) and ROP No. MI-ROP- A8640-2016a, Section 1, GC 11. ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640-2016a, EUBOF, SC IV.1 requires that the permittee shall not operate EUBOF unless the ESP is installed and operating properly. Similarly, R 336.1910 requires that an air-cleaning device be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law. The ESP is an air-cleaning device. Based on the continuing opacity exceedances, failed stack tests, and annual inspection report findings, the ESP is not being maintained and operated in a satisfactory manner.

On January 28, 2020 the WYDR RTO stack test report dated January 23, 2020 was received. As part of the review of the emission test report for the WYDR RTO, the AQD evaluated BASF’s compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 113-07B; and Consent Order AQD No. 2018-03.

Consent Order AQD No. 2018-03 requires that on and after the effective date (May 7, 2018), the Company shall comply with the minimum VOC destruction efficiency limit for FG-RTO in PTI 113- 07A, as amended. On January 28, 2020, the AQD received BASF’s test report of the VOC destruction efficiency test conducted on November 26, 2019 of the WYDR RTO. BASF reports the total gaseous organics (TGO) destruction efficiency was 95%. This is a violation of PTI 113-07B, FG-RTO, SC IV.1. Compliance with the 98% destruction efficiency was not demonstrated during the November 26, 2019 stack test, and therefore a minimum firebox temperature cannot be established. The average temperature of the RTO during the performance test, approximately 1553°F, was determined to be insufficient to achieve the required destruction efficiency. PTI 113-07B, FG-RTO, SC IV.1 includes an underlying applicable requirement of R 336.1702(a). R336.1702(a) requires that “a person who is responsible for any new source of volatile organic compound emissions shall not cause or allow the emission of volatile organic compound emissions from the new source in excess of the lowest maximum allowable emission rate of the following: (a) The maximum allowable emission rate listed by the department on its own initiative or based upon the application of the best available control technology.” Based on the stack test results from November 26, 2019, BASF is not meeting this requirement. R336.1910 requires that “an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law.” Because the RTO is not achieving the required destruction efficiency, this is a violation or R 336.1910. The RTO is not operating in a satisfactory manner to achieve the required destruction efficiency. Furthermore, not achieving the required VOC destruction efficiency is also a violation of Consent Order AQD No. 2018-03, Paragraph 10.B, and may be subject to stipulated penalties per Paragraph 14.

The PTE calculations were requested as a result of the August 15, 219 inspection and subsequent Violation Notice issued to the facility on September 4, 2019. As a result of the updated calculations and subsequent telephone conversations with the facility consultant, AQD Staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Descriotion Condition Violated Comments Facility Operations Rule 201 Failure to Obtain a Permit to Install. The facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration that was supplied to the AQD accounted for the reduction in sulfur concentration due to the use of a desulfurization system at the facility. In accordance with AQD's PTE guidance information located at http://www/michigan.gov/air, the use of a control device without any federally enforceable restriction is not allowed when calculating PTE. Therefore, the PTE for SO2 is higher than what was submitted to AQD. The PTE calculations for SO2 completed by the AQD show a PTE above the 40 ton per year (tpy) significance threshold for SO2 and may be above the major source threshold of 100 tpy per R 336.1210. Additionally, in the November 1, 2019 letter received from Generate Fremont Digester, it is noted that a Permit to Install (PTI) application was necessary and planned for multiple emission units at the facility. The need for a PTI was also cited in the September 4, 2019 Violation Notice issued to Generate Fremont Digester. As of the date of this letter, no PTI application has been received.

Holly Road, Grand Blanc, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine Genesee Cremation Center, lnc.'s. (Genesee Cremation) compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451) ; the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 301-05, 134-09, and 11-17 During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments - --- EUCREMATORY2, a PTI No. 134-09 One-time instance of Matthews Cremation pharmaceutical waste Power-Pak II Ultra natural incineration gas-fired crematory incinerator Paint booth Rule 287(2)(c) Permit exemption of Rule 287(2)(c) was not met, because particulate filter was absent During the inspection, AQD was informed that at some point within the last several years, Genesee Cremation had been approached by a local law enforcement agency to burn a small bag of pharmaceutical waste. It is my understanding that this was burned in one of the crematory incinerators, per the agency's request. Subsequent discussion by telephone with one of Genesee Cremation's staff indicated that EUCREMATORY2 was the crematory incinerator most likely utilized for this.

This permit applies to human pathological waste and associated materials."" Additionally, during the inspection, AQD staff observed the paint booth onsite, where acrylic paint is rolled onto plaques for burial vaults, and commercially available cans of spray paint are occasionally used. The coating booth did not have a particulate filter, such as a mat or panel filter, installed. A coating booth may be considered exempt from the requirement of Michigan Air Pollution Control Rule 201 to obtain a permit to install, provided it satisfies the exemption criteria for a relevant permit exemption, such as that contained within Rule 287(2)(c). This rule exempts the following: ""(c) A surface coating line if all of the following conditions are met: (i) The coating use rate is not more than 200 gallons, as applied, minus water, per month. (ii) Any exhaust system that serves only coating spray equipment is supplied with a dry filter control or water wash control which is installed, maintained, and operated in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications, or the owner or operator develops a plan which provides to the extent practicable for the maintenance and operation of the equipment in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. (iii) Monthly coating use records are maintained on file for the most recent 2-year period and are made available to the department upon request. Due to a particulate filter not installed for the paint booth, the permit exemption criteria of Rule 287(2)(c) has not been met, at this time. A program for compliance may include installing a particulate filter, or instead submitting a completed PTI application for the paint booth.

Rule 910 FGEPS ROP No. MI-ROP-N1794-2017a, Failure to operate thermal FGEPS, SC IV.2 oxidizer above the minimum required temoeratu re. During the recordkeeping review, the AQD learned that Atlas EPS has not conducted sampling to determine the VOC content of product as shipped on an annual basis and has not been calculating the actual VOC retention value based on a production weighted average. Annual testing was required as part of the 2017 permit renewal process. Additionally, Atlas EPS did not request and receive approval for any sampling and analysis methods for either the product as shipped nor the regrind, or densified scrap, from the AQD District Supervisor. This is a violation of the record keeping and sampling requirements of the permit. It is noted that without accurate VOC content values for the product as shipped, the reported emissions are also incorrect. This is a violation of the record keeping requirements as detailed in FGEPS, SC 11.3 and Vl.8 of the permit. Finally, a review of temperature data along with the past two thermal oxidizer annual inspection reports indicates that the poppet valve section had deteriorated, and the ceramic media was 9"" low. These deficiencies impact temperature regulation and are believed to have caused the many instances of recorded temperatures below the minimum required temperature of 1,340°F.

(NGK) located at 46929 Magellan Drive, Wixom, Michigan. The purpose of the inspection was to determine the facility's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); and the Air Pollution Control Rules. During the review process, AQD staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Three engine test cells and AQD Administrative Rule The test cells were installed two chassis test cells R 336.1201 (Rule 201) and operated without first obtainina a permit to install. AQD Administrative Rule The facility is non-compliant R 336.1210 of the ROP requirements. Part 19 of the AQD The facility is located in Administrative Rules Ozone non-attainment area and the potential to emit for NOx emissions exceed the maior source threshold. During this inspection, it was noted that NGK had installed and commenced operation of the three engine dynamometer test cells and two chassis dynamometer test cells at this facility without first obtaining a permit to install (PTI). The AQD staff advised NGK on December 13, 2019, that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. Rule 201 states in part; ""A person shall not install, construct, reconstruct, relocate, alter, or modify any process or process equipment, including control equipment pertaining thereto, which may emit an air contaminant, unless a Permit to Install which authorizes such action is issued by the department."" 27700 DONALD COURT• WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 586-753-3700Ms. Jennifer McAllister NGK Spark Plugs (U.S.A.), Inc. Page 2 January 22, 2020 A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the unpermitted process equipment. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Because the company has not obtained a permit to install to restrict the potential of the NOx emissions from the three test engines to below major source threshold and the company is located in a non-attainment area for Ozone standard, the test engines operation are subject to Part 19-New Source Review For Major Sources Impacting Non-Attainment Areas. Under state Air Pollution Law and the federal Clean Air Act, a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) Program has been developed and implemented in Michigan. This program requires major sources of air emissions to obtain a facility-wide air use permit. This permit serves as a mechanism for consolidating and clarifying all air pollution control requirements which apply to the source. Rule 210(5) of Part 55, Air Pollution control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451) requires major sources to submit an application to the Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE}, Air Quality Division (AQD) not more than 12 months after a stationary source commences operation as a major source, as defined by Rule 211(1)(a) of Act 451. An application for an ROP was to have been submitted to the AQD no more than 12 months after the commencement of operation for the three engine dynamometer test cells and two chassis dynamometer test cells located at 46929 Magellan Drive, Wixom, Michigan. To date, the AQD has not received this application. Please be advised that Rule 210(1) of Act 451 states in part; ""a source shall not operate a process or process equipment which requires a ROP, unless a timely and administratively complete application has been received by the department"". Enclosed for your reference is the AQD Operational memorandum No. 4. This document delineates the legally enforceable mechanisms available for sources to use to limit their potential to emit and thus become exempt from the definition of major source. As a result of the failure to submit a timely and administratively complete application, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 210(5), this facility has failed to obtain an ""application shield"". Operation of the process or process equipment without the benefit of the application shield constitutes a violation of Rule 210(1) that may result in enforcement action under the provisions of Act 451. Notwithstanding the response to this letter, be advised that the AQD may initiate appropriate enforcement action to address this violation and the action for your unpermitted installation and operation of this process equipment. Furthermore, continued operation of unpermitted equipment is not authorized.Ms. Jennifer McAllister NGK Spark Plugs (U.S.A.), Inc. Page 3 January 22, 2020 Be aware that state and federal air pollution regulations prohibit NGK from obtaining any new permits for major offset sources located in Michigan until the cited violations are corrected or until the company has entered a legally enforceable order or judgment specifying an acceptable program and schedule for compliance.

Dearborn, MI 48121-1669 SRN: A8640, Wayne County Dear Mr. Combs: SECOND VIOLATION NOTICE On October 20 and 21, 2019, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (ELGE), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted investigations in response to citizen complaints regarding fallout in Dearborn which occurred between the early evening of October 19, 2019, through the morning of October 20, 2019. The investigations included an evaluation of AK Steel Dearborn Works’ (“AK Steel”) compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI- ROP-A8640-2016a. As a result of these investigations, the AQD issued to AK Steel the attached Violation Notice, dated November 25, 2019, and requested your written response to the violation cited therein by December 16, 2019. Your response to the violation notice, received on December 20, 2019, is inadequate. It fails to provide the dates the violation occurred, an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation, whether the violation is ongoing, a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place, and specific steps being taken to prevent a reoccurrence. As you reported, AK Steel started up the C Blast Furnace from an extended outage at approximately 4:00 PM on October 19. Startup and associated activities continued throughout that night, the following day, and beyond. During a startup when a furnace is “blown in” from a “bank”, there is a significant amount of slag present. The initial casts from such a startup tend to contain an elevated amount of blast furnace slag, and therefore these casts were directed into slag pots and subsequently beached in the blast furnace slag pits at AK Steel. AQD received eleven complaints of fallout in the South Dearborn area that allegedly occurred during blast furnace startup activities. AQD collected samples and provided microscopy results to you which indicated the fallout contained materials associated with steel manufacturing. Wind direction during the time period indicates complainants CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 Michigan.gov/EGLE • 313-456-4700Mr. LaDale Combs AK Steel Dearborn Works Page 2 January 13, 2020 were downwind of AK Steel operations at times. Additionally, AQD staff collected a ghost wipe sample of the fallout on October 20 that was analyzed for metals. Results are enclosed for your reference. The results show the majority of the fallout contained the metals calcium, aluminum, magnesium, iron, and manganese. The composition of blast furnace slag, per the ""Making, Shaping and Treating of Steel, 10th Edition"" and the Edw. C. Levy Co. blast furnace slag SOS, is mostly oxides of silicon, calcium, aluminum, magnesium, iron, and manganese. Blast furnace slag is also a material associated with steel manufacturing. The Air Quality Division disagrees with AK Steel's statement that particulate matter from AK Steel operations, deposited onto neighboring properties, is not an unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property. AQD understands that this type of startup is uncommon. Nevertheless, AK Steel is required to be in compliance with applicable state air quality requirements cited herein under all circumstances and every type of operation. Please submit a written response by January 27, 2020 (which coincides with 14 calendar days from the date of this letter) to EGLE, AQD, Detroit District, at 3058 West Grand Boulevard, Suite 2-300, Detroit, Michigan 48202 and submit a copy to Ms. Jenine Camilleri, Enforcement Unit Supervisor at EGLE, AQD, P.O.

The finishing operations were originally exhausted internal to the plant environment. The tie into the external exhaust occurred on November 1, 2019.

The information indicates sulfur concentrations (measured as hydrogen sulfide) in the landfill gas range between 800 parts per million (ppm) to 1000 ppm. The sulfur concentration in the landfill gas indicates that the violations for EU ENGINE 1-7 at EDGB identified below remain ongoing.

BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 517-284-6651Mr. Dan Zimmerman 2 December 17, 2019 On March 16, 2018, AQD received updated 2017 MAERS emission calculations for EDGB. This information included total sulfur concentrations of 614 ppm based on site-specific sampling on May 31, 2016, of the landfill gas. EUENGINE6 and EUENGINE7 were originally permitted under Permit to Install (PTI) No. 331-08, and SOx emissions were based on a ppm value of 305 that was provided by EDGB. Also, site-specific sampling of landfill gas on March 26, 2018, showed total sulfur concentrations of 1102 ppm. The stack testing performed on November 28, 2018, indicated 5.44 lb/hr of SO2 from EUENGINE6, and 5.16 lb/hr of SO2 from EUENGINE7. This information indicates a violation of SC 1.2 of FGENGINES in Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI-ROP-N5991-2016. These violations were previously identified to you in letters dated March 28, 2018, and January 17, 2019, and remain ongoing. Furthermore, the five (5) previously exempt landfill gas-fired Caterpillar 3516 engines designated as EUENGINE1, EUENGINE2, EUENGINE3, EUENGINE4, and EUENGINE5 continue to fire landfill gas with increased concentrations of total sulfur in the landfill gas. The 2017 MAERS report was based on a total sulfur concentration of 614 ppm from the May 31, 2016, sampling. This data along with ongoing landfill gas sampling demonstrate that actual emissions of SO2 from the engines have increased from when they were originally installed. The increase in total sulfur in the landfill gas is considered a change in the method of operation of the engines and thus a violation of Rule 201. The five ( 5) Caterpillar 3516 engines are part of the project and require permitting per Rule 201. Also, potential emissions of SO2 from the project could be greater than 40 tons per year, which exceeds the significant threshold and may trigger New Source Review (NSR) for a major modification. As of this date, we still have not received a satisfactory response to these ongoing violations. Therefore, please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice (VN) by January 15, 2020. The written response should include at a minimum a summary of the actions that are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place. An acceptable program for compliance shall include an administratively complete PTI application for the two (2) Caterpillar G3520 engines and the five (5) Caterpillar 3516 engines that addresses all applicable state and federal requirements, including NSR applicability. Notwithstanding your response to the preceding citation, the AQD may initiate further enforcement action to address violations of both the state and federal Clean Air Acts, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

During the course of the emissions test AQD staff observed significant visible emissions from several other emission points at the plant. AQD staff along with Lafarge Alpena staff investigated and determined the sources were the FG CLINKER SYS 40-100 dust collector, the FG FINISH MILLS 43-269 dust collector, as well as fugitive emissions from clinker tailing carry over from the Kiln 22 Clinker Drag #5 conveyor transfer to the Clinker Belt 13. As a result, the AQD has determined the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Operation of FG CLINKER SYS while a FG CLINKER SYS, R 336.1910, 40 CFR 63.1347 dust collector is not operating in a 40-100 Dust Collector FG CLINKER SYS; SC 111.1. satisfactorv manner.

The investigations included an evaluation of AK Steel Dearborn Works' (""AK Steel"") compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451 ); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI ROP-A8640-2016a. During the investigations, AQD staff observed substantial fallout at the complainants' homes. AQD staff collected samples of the fallout and sent the samples to a lab for analysis. The analysis determined the samples to be consistent with steel manufacturing. The sample results are attached to this letter. During the time period when the fallout is believed to have occurred, AK Steel reported that the C Blast Furnace was going through start-up after an extended shutdown, during which time winds were primarily from the southwest, placing the complainants downwind of AK Steel during the approximate time period the fallout occurred. As a result, AQD staff has determined that AK Steel was in violation of the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated EUCFURNACE ROP No. MI-ROP-A8640- Detection of fallout beyond 2016a, General Condition the facility's property line, 12(b), Section 1 ; attributable to the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to R 336.1901(b) constitute an unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules, conditions of MI-ROP-B4243-2016, and PTI 5-19.

Vll.4 operational requirement (Le.spray water on the SIP Consent Order 18-1993 slag pits before digging) (Revised 9/9/94), Paragraph 11 was not met SOURCEWIDE MI-ROP- B4243-2016, Failure by the Responsible G.C. 19, 21, and 23 Official to report deviations of the above violations in R 336.1213(3)(c) the semi annual and/or annual deviation reports R 336.1213(4)(c) for CY2018 which should have been reported based on reasonable inquiry MI-ROP-B4243-2016, EULEVYPLANT6, S.C. 11.1 contains an hourly slag throughput limit of 400 tons per hour based on a calendar day average. Based on the January 2018 through March 2019 records, on May 21, 2018, the hourly slag throughput based on the calendar day average was 872 tons per hour. MI-ROP-B4243-2016, EULEVYPLANT6, S.C. 111.1 requires the permittee to maintain a minimum moisture content of 1.5 percent by weight in the raw materials and crushed stone. This is demonstrated by performing weekly sampling of each finished product storage pile (""crushed stone""). Based on the weekly records provided from January 2018 through March 2019, the 3X finished product did not meet the minimum moisture content on 18 weekly sampling events. Moistures ranged from 0.5 to 1.3 percent by weight. MI-ROP-B4243-2016, EUBOFSLAGPIT, S.C. 111.1 and SIP Consent Order 18-1993 require that the permittee shall quench the dumped slag with water sprays before digging. During the onsite inspection, it was observed that the water sprays on the slag pits were out of service yet slag was still being routinely dug from the pits. Additionally, the plant personnel stated that the sprays had not been operational for some time although a specific date was not provided when asked.Mr. Tim Lazarz Mr. Matt Perko Page 3 November 19, 2019 MI-ROP-84243-2016, EUBOFSLAGPIT, S.C. Vl.3 states that the permittee shall conduct a periodic inspection at least once a week for the purpose of determining the operational condition of the water spray systems on the slag pit dumping areas and the pot knocking station, and if necessary, record the reason for the malfunction or failure noted from the inspection. Water spray system inspection records submitted by Edw. C. Levy Co. Plant 6 falsely indicate ""pass"" on every weekly check for the time period that was reviewed (January 2018 through April 8, 2019) yet the water sprays for the slag pits were not working during some of this time. This is a failure to accurately document the operational condition of the water sprays and a failure to record the reasons for malfunction or failure of the sprays as required. MI-ROP-84243-2016, Source-Wide Conditions, Condition Vll.4 and SIP Consent Order 18-1993 (Revised 9/9/94), Paragraph 11, require the company to submit a quarterly report identifying each day in which an emission limit, operational requirement, or recording requirement, as specified in SIP No. 18-1993 (Revised 9/9/94) Exhibit A (Fugitive Dust Control Plan, Edward C. Levy Co. - Plant #6), was not met. This report shall, for each instance, explain the reason that the emission limit, operational requirement, or recordkeeping requirement was not met, the duration of the event, the remedial action taken, and a description of the steps which were taken to prevent a recurrence. These reports shall be submitted within 30 days following the end of the calendar quarter in which the data was collected. Watering the dumped slag with water sprays before digging is an operational requirement from SIP Consent Order 18-1993 (Revised 9/9/94), Exhibit A, and it was not being met. However, based on the records reviewed from January 2018 through March 2019, no quarterly reports have been submitted identifying each day in which this operational requirement was not met nor providing the additional required information. Failure by the Responsible Official to report deviations of the cited violations in the ROP semi-annual and/or annual deviation reports for CY2018 regarding slag throughput, moisture content, and quarterly reporting is a violation of the AQD rules R 336.1213(3)(c) and R 336.1213(4)(c). These rules require the reporting of deviations not less than once every 6 months and the report to be certified by the facility's responsible official for its truth, accuracy, and completeness after reasonable inquiry and also require an annual certification of compliance from the facility's responsible official, excepting those deviations identified by the facility after reasonable inquiry, respectively. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by December 10, 2019 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.Mr. Tim Lazarz Mr. Matt Perko Page4 November 19, 2019 Please submit the written response to the EGLE, AQD, Detroit District, at 3058 West Grand Boulevard, Suite 2-300, Detroit, Michigan 48202 and submit a copy to Ms. Jenine Camilleri, Enforcement Unit Supervisor at the EGLE, AQD, P.O.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine DC P's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T, National Emissions Standards for Halogenated Solvent Cleaning, and the First Amended Consent Decree (FACD), Case No. 03-1862 CE.

BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 517-284-6651Mr. Scott Wright Diamond Chrome Plating, Incorporated Page 2 October 30, 2019 Michigan Air Pollution Control Rule 201 requires that an air use permit to install (PTI) be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. The BACT-72A vapor degreaser was installed and operated in late November 2018, under the Rule 285(2)(r)(iv) exemption from the requirements of Rule 201. This exemption reads as follows: (r) Equipment used for any of the following metal treatment processes if the process emissions are only released into the general in-plant environment: (iv) Cleaning. Since March of 2019, DCP and DCP's consulting firm, BB&E, have conducted numerous sampling activities to check for the presence of TCE vapors both onsite and offsite. Data from the analysis of air samples has been submitted to EGLE's Remediation and Redevelopment Division (RRD), as well as the AQD, for review. Following review of the most recently received data, which was submitted to EGLE on September 27, 2019, it has been determined by the AQD and the RRD, that TCE emissions are escaping the in-plant environment. Because TCE emissions from the vapor degreaser are not remaining within the general in-plant environment, the degreaser cannot meet the exemption criteria of Rule 285(2)(r)(iv). Therefore, the degreaser cannot be considered exempt, and this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the vapor degreaser. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). During the inspection conducted by the AQD on October 17, 2019, staff observed operation of the BACT-72A vapor degreaser, while examples of parts were being cleaned. The built-in roof of the parts basket, which had been lowered into the degreaser, was functioning as the working mode cover of the degreaser. However, there was a gap of more than an inch between the working mode cover and the degreaser itself. It is my understanding that DCP intends to cover or seal this opening with a TCE-resistant material. The cover is intended to function as one of the air pollution controls for the degreaser, but the gap between cover and degreaser appeared to be a source of fugitive TCE emissions. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner, and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Additionally, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T, Section 63.463(e)(iii)(A) requires the following: (iii) If a working-mode cover is used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall comply with the requirements specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(iii)(A) and (e)(2)(iii)(B) of this section.Mr. Scott Wright Diamond Chrome Plating, Incorporated Page 3 October 30, 2019 (A) Ensure that the cover opens only for part entrance and removal and completely covers the cleaning machine openings when closed. The gap between the working mode cover and the vapor degreaser indicates that it does not completely cover all cleaning machine openings when closed. This is a violation of Section 63.463(e)(iii)(A). Furthermore, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T, Section 63.463 (e)(iii)(B) requires the following: (iii) If a working-mode cover is used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall comply with the requirements specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(iii)(A) and (e)(2)(iii)(B) of this section. (B) Ensure that the working-mode cover is maintained free of cracks, holes, and other defects. The gap between the working mode cover and the vapor degreaser is considered by the AQD to be a defect with the cover. This is a violation of Section 63.463(e)(iii)(B). Lastly, the AQD has reviewed the Second Quarter 2019 Roof Area Inspection Forms (RAIF) for the west plant roof. The entry for April 29, 2019 states, ""roof duct was cracked and rain water got in and caused chrome leak. It was repaired."" The form field for the completed action was left blank and did not specify the date of repair. This is a violation of the FACD, Paragraph 5.3(b), which states, in part: ""On and after the Effective Date, Defendant shall inspect all ductwork and control equipment at the Property each day the Facility is in production to identify any release of an air contaminant to the environment that fails to be appropriately conveyed to the control equipment for control and removal. All releases must be repaired within forty eight (48) hours of being identified. Defendant shall conduct and maintain at the Property a written record that identifies the person(s) conducting the required inspection, and release(s) identified during the inspection, the ductwork segment for each release identified, and the date any release is repaired."" Due to these multi-media concerns, a meeting between DCP, BB&E, RRD, WRD, and AQD is recommended, to facilitate discussion. A tentative meeting date has been selected at Constitution Hall on November 18, 2019, at 1: 00 PM. Please contact the AQD, at your earliest convenience, to confirm whether or not DCP and BB&E representatives will be able to attend.

These reports were reviewed to determine the Company's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451) and the associated Air Pollution Control Rules, the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N2688-2011a; and Permit to Install (PTI) permit 79-17.

This violation was oreviouslv cited in Violation 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY • JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 517-780-7690Mr. Anthony Falbo 2 October 22, 2019 Fortistar Methane Group Arbor Hills Energy LLC Notice (VN) dated 3/14/19. It was also cited by the United States Environmental Protection Agency Region V (USEPA) on Seotember 29, 2016. New Source Performance Standards (NSPS), Subpart WWW requires proper well design to properly handle water/leachate condensate in landfill gas wells. NESHAP Subpart AAAA requires the owner or operator to operate and maintain any affected source, including associated air pollution control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. Reports on the liquid level in the gas wells were submitted by ADS from liquid level sounding data obtained in the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2019. (Specific well information that shows how much of the well screen was actually covered by liquid was not provided in the two reports.) It is noted that the design for vertical gas extraction wells includes an estimated radius of influence (ROI), which is based in part on the length of perforated pipe available for gas flow. A substantially flooded well will be limited in its ROI and this will lead to gaps in gas collection coverage and lead to surface breakouts of landfill gas. Furthermore, the long-term presence of liquid can contribute to fouling of the stone and well screen, reducing the effectiveness of these wells over time. Finally, the presence of high levels of liquid in the landfill raises concerns about landfill slope stability. Review of the liquid level data of about 300 wells for which liquid levels data were available for both quarters showed a substantial increase over a 3-month period. This is a continuation of a trend that has been ongoing since at least 2016. The liquid levels increased despite a new gas well dewatering program implemented by ADS in the Spring of 2019, which included repairing/installing new liquid well pumps and an improvement in the air pressure across the landfill used to activate the pumps. This program appears to have had some success at the top of the landfill in the elevated temperature area but has been unsuccessful so far in the lower elevations. The overall increase in liquid levels is likely due to a combination of factors including an inadequately designed dewatering program, higher than normal precipitation during the period and the approximately 50 acres of relatively flat active face, under daily cover, now located at the top of the landfill where precipitation infiltration is likely occurring instead of entering the storm water system. All of this coincided with the continued occurrence of numerous locations on the surface of the landfill where methane levels were measured/identified as exceeding the regulatory limit of 500 parts per million. Furthermore, it should also be noted that the following gas wells were reported to be pinched or otherwise impaired based on the most recent information submitted by ADSMr. Anthony Falbo 3 October 22, 2019 Fortistar Methane Group Arbor Hills Energy LLC AHEW0L08, AHEW0L09, AHW204R2, AHW223R4*, AHW227R2, AHW231 R4, AHW233R2, AHW234R2, AHW235R3, AHW255R2, AHWW0281*, AHWW0299, AHWW0301, AHWW0303*, AHWW0305*, AHWW306, AHWW413, AHWW414, AHWW416*, AHWW0439, AHWW214R, AHWW252, AHW272R2. •These were listed as pinched in 3114119 VN as well.

The 2016 emissions indicate the following issues with respect to the emission units operating at the landfill: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EUFLARE Rule 201 (R 336.1201) The information provided with the MAERS report A 1,300 scfm open flare for demonstrates that actual backup control of the landfill emissions of sulfur dioxide gas (SO ) from the flare have 2 increased. The flare was originally evaluated using U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Compilation of Air Pollutant Emissions Factors (AP-42) emission factors. The reported emissions to MAERS were based on gas samples that were collected May 31, 2016, which is approximately 22 times the AP-42 concentrations. Please be advised that potential emissions of SO could be greater than 40 tons per year, which exceeds the significant 2 threshold and may trigger New Source Review (NSR) for a major modification. At a minimum, this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended. A program for compliance shall include a completed PTI application for EUFLARE.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine the facility's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) number 145-12B, 199- 14A; the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N6226-2015; and Consent Order AQD number 2019-19. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments EU-Magni-06 Rule 336.1201 No Permit to The facility applied for and Install (PTI) received a permit to install 145-12B which included a new EU-Zinc-06 line. In January 2019, the facility installed a new EU-Magni-06 line. The EU-Magni-06 line was not evaluated under the PTI new source review. The new, permitted EU-Zinc-06 line was never installed. The EU-Magni-06 line is considered to be operating without a permit. Rust Inhibitor Rule 336.1201 No Permit to The facility uses a rust Install inhibitor, Eco Cool 7045, which replaced Super Cool 310 YBW. During the last inspection, it was discussed that the rust inhibitor likely met the 290 exemption and records were needed to 7953 ADOBE ROAD • KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 269-567-3500Mr. Sandberg Brembo North America, Inc. Page 2 October 1, 2019 show compliance. Records are still required for the new rust inhibitor to show compliance with this exemption. During the inspection, no records were available to show that usage of Eco Cool 7045 Rust Inhibitor met the Rule 290 exemption. FG-BMG PTI 145-12B Special Condition According to records, the (SC) 11.1 facility uses both Magni and Zinc paint on the lines in the BMG flexible group. All paint used on a line is subject to the lines' material limit. This flexible group has a material limit of 3.5 lbs VOC/gallon (minus water) as applied. Method 24 testing and the SOS provided for the Zinc voe paint show a content of 3.95 lbs VOC/gallon and 3.8 +/- 0.3 lbs VOC/gallon respectively. This exceeds the limit of 3.5 lbs VOC/gallon on the FG-BMG line. FG-ZINC PTI 145-12B SC 11.1 During the inspection, records were not available to show compliance with the 11.0 lbs of VOC per gallon of applied coating solids on a calendar day basis. Records were later sent showing that on 9/5/19 the facility met the limit with the Zinc paint. However, the limit applies to all paint used on the line for both Magni and Zinc paints. The facility has not been able to provide daily records showing compliance with this limit for all coatings used on the line.Mr. Sandberg Brembo North America, Inc. Page 3 October 1, 2019 During this inspection, Brembo Disc Plant was unable to produce complete emission records to demonstrate daily compliance with the material limit special condition under FG-Zinc. This is a violation of the recordkeeping and material limitations specified in Special Condition 5.g of PTI number 145-128. The conditions of PTI number 145-128 require the facility to maintain daily usage, VOC, solids content, transfer efficiency, and emission calculation records for each emission unit of EU-Zinc. They are required to have the calculated daily VOC emission rare in pounds per gallon of applied coating solids, completed on a monthly basis, and made available to the department upon request. The facility also has material limit requirements on FG-BMG line under SC 11.1 for pounds of VOC/gallon (minus water) as applied. Any paint used on this line is subject to this material limit. Because the facility is running non-compliant zinc paint on these lines, it is a violation of this condition. During this inspection, it was noted that the facility had installed and commenced operation of an unpermitted coating line, EU-Magni-06, at this facility. The facility was permitted to install equipment associated with an EU-Zinc-06 line through the PTI 145-128, not equipment for a new Magni line. Because a different line was installed than the one the facility applied for a permit to install, the new EU-Magni-06 line is considered to be operating without a permit. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the EU-Magni-06 process equipment. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/air (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Also, during this inspection, it was noted that there were no rule 290 exemption records available for review to show the facility's usage of Eco Cool 7045 Rust Inhibitor is meeting this exemption. During the inspection in 2017, the facility was informed they need to keep 290 records for the rust inhibitor used on site or have the chemical added as a process in the permit. According to the SOS, Eco Cool 7045 contains triethanolamine which has an ITSL of 50 according to the AQD database. This exemption requires each chemical component of the tracked substance to be listed, with the associated ITSL or IRSL, whether it is controlled or uncontrolled, and the monthly emissions. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant.

Page 2 September 4, 2019 During this inspection it was noted that the Fabric Filter Baghouse was emitting opacity in excess of emissions allowed by PTI No. 401-86K, GC 11 and Rule 301 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. The average six-minute opacity reading was determined to be 33 percent. PTI No. 401-86K, EUHMAPLANT, SC 111.2 (Appendix B, Item 5) requires the facility to cease operations immediately if visible emissions appear to exceed the standard allowed in GC 11 of the PTI of 20 percent and there is no certified visible emissions reader available within 60-minutes. Per discussions with Mr. Waldo on August 30, 2019, Rieth Riley has two (2) certified readers. Neither were available on August 26, 2019. The cause of the opacity was determined to be due to worn filter bags (approximately 80). Operating in this manner is not considered proper operation and maintenance of a control device, which constitutes a violation of PTI No. 401-86K, EUHMAPLANT SC 111.1 (Appendix A, Item 6), 111.2 (Appendix B, Item 5), IV.1, Vl.5 and Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. Rule 910 requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. During this investigation, Rieth Riley was unable to produce adequate maintenance records.

The exceedances are defined as follows: • Any daily 2-hour average of the wet scrubber pressure drop that is less than 90% of the average value recorded during the most recent performance test that demonstrated compliance with the particulate standard. • Any daily 2-hour average of the wet scrubber flow rate that is less that 80% or greater than 120% of the average value recorded during the most recent performance test that demonstrated compliance with the particulate standard. During the November 10, 2010 stack test the average measured pressure drop was 7.7 inches water. This would equate to a minimum pressure drop of approximately 6.93 inches water. The November 10, 201 0 stack test average measured wet scrubber flow rate was 131 gallons per minute (gpm). This would equate to scrubber flow rates between 105 gpm to 157.2 gpm.

Director Wastewater Operations/Compliance Ypsilanti Community Utilities Authority 2777 State Road Ypsilanti, Michigan 48198-9112 SRN: B6237, Washtenaw County Dear Mr. Mullapudi: VIOLATION NOTICE In March 2019, the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Quality Division (AQD), requested several compliance reports from Ypsilanti Community Utilities Authority (YCUA) located at 2777 State Road, Ypsilanti, Michigan. The purpose of this request was to determine YCUA's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-B6237-2015. Based on our review of the reports, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Descriotion Condition Violated Comments EU-FBSSI, Fluidized Bed ROP Condition I. 14. Instantaneous limit of 0.25 Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Beryllium mg/kg dry sewage sludge Incinerator was exceeded based on sampling (see details below) YCUA's ROP contains emission limits for metals and requires annual sampling in the Testing Section, Condition V.5., as follows, ""The permittee shall collect a well-mixed representative grab sample of the sewage sludge fed to EU-FBSSI and analyze it for arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, total chromium, and mercury, in mg pollutant per kg of sewage sludge fed to the incinerator, once per calendar year."" YCUA's ROP specifies that for the indicated metals, ""If the instantaneous sample shows an exceedance in the metal contents listed above, the permittee shall collect two additional samples for analysis within one week. For any year that stack testing is required pursuant to SC V.1, SC V.2, and/or SC V.4, the sewage sludge sampling shall occur at the same time."" 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY• JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 517-780-7690Mr. Sreedhar Mullapudi 2 July 29, 2019 The AQD requested YCUA's 2018 Biosolids report following the performance testing that occurred in December 2018 and as supporting documentation for their 2018 Annual ROP Certification and Deviation reporting. YCUA's analytical report showed compliance except for the Beryllium sample for the month of June 2018. The Beryllium sample result was 0.26 mg/kg which is greater than the 0.25 mg/kg permit limit. The AQD discussed this with YCUA and additional time was provided to YCUA to investigate the accuracy of the sampling and analysis and to provide additional sampling. On May 10, 2019 YCUA submitted results of February 13, 2019 Biosolids sampling and Beryllium again exceeded the permit limit at 0.44 mg/kg, however it was noted that the EU-FBSSI was offline between December 19, 2018 and March 25, 2019 for preventative maintenance. Another Biosolids sample was obtained on April 3, 2019 and the result was below the detection limit for Beryllium. YCUA at that time proposed to monitor the situation and conduct more frequent sampling. On July 23, 2019, YCUA submitted to AQD the results of their July 8, 2019 Biosolids sampling. The laboratory report shows the Beryllium concentration of 0.29 mg/kg exceeded the permit limit. YCUA also collected influent and effluent samples, the results of which did not indicate the presence of Beryllium above the detection limit. AQD acknowledges that YCUA's July submittal stated that they will collect two additional samples the week of July 29, and the results will be provided to AQD. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by August 19, 2019.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine the facility's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451 ); and the Air Pollution Control Rules. During the inspection, staff observed the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Laundry Operations R336.1201 (Rule201) The facility could not provide records that show that their laundering processes comply with an exemption to permitting, and they are also not covered under a Permit to Install. During this inspection, it was noted that Domestic Uniform Rental could not provide records to show that their laundry operations qualified for an exemption. This facility processes VOC-laden shop towels and therefore does not meet the Rule 281 exemption for cleaning, washing, and drying equipment. Based on the capacity of the washers at Domestic Uniform, and by using emissions information from other shop towel laundering facilities known to the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy, preliminary calculations suggest that Domestic uniform has the potential to emit (PTE) VOCs over the thresholds for permitting. The facility needs to either submit appropriate calculations and information to show that it qualifies for an exemption, or it needs to submit an application for a Permit to Install (PTI). A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the laundry operations process equipment.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate a recent complaint that EGLE, AQD received on May 8, 2019 regarding fallout on vehicles located at Sherriff-Goslin Company located at 10 Avenue C, Battle Creek, Michigan 49037. On May 8, 2019, staff responded to a complaint made about white powder covering vehicles that had been parked overnight at Sherriff-Goslin Company. A particulate matter sample was taken from two different cars parked on site. These samples were sent to Merit Laboratory for analysis. The night before the Department received the complaint, the wind was out of the east. Based on wind direction, it was most likely the fallout had originated from a facility located to the east of the Sherriff-Goslin Company. The company located about 150 feet directly to east of Sherriff-Goslin is ReConserve of Michigan, Inc. WestRock is located further east of Sherriff Goslin, about 1,100 feet. On July 3, 2019, staff from EGLE obtained a sample of the mixing starch used at WestRock. This was also sent to Merit Laboratory to compare to the samples taken from the windshields at Sherriff-Goslin Company. The lab determined that the samples taken from the windshields at Sherriff-Goslin were a mixture including wheat starch, corn starch, and other particles. The sample taken of WestRock starch was determined to have characteristics consistent with corn starch and no non-cornstarch particles were observed in the sample. The samples taken from the windshields of cars parked at Sherriff-Goslin do not match the sample taken from West Rock. Due to the presence of wheat starch in the sample coupled with the comparison between the samples from the windshield not being consistent with the sample taken from WestRock, the fallout appears to have originated from ReConserve of Michigan, Inc. no. In the professional judgement of AQD staff, based on the evidence collected, the AQD is citing the following violation of Rule 901 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. 7953 ADOBE ROAD• KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 269-567-3500Mr. Scott Allread ReConserve of Michigan, Inc.

During the inspection, AQD staff collected a sample of the fallout off the complainant's home and sent the sample to a lab for analysis. The results showed the sample to consist primarily (about 50%) of metallic particles which respond to a magnet, in addition to many quartz-like and glass-like particles. The analysis determined the sample to be consistent with steel manufacturing. These sample results are attached to this letter. In addition, AK Steel reported three semi-clean bleeder openings on April 18, 2019, between the hours of 3:34 AM and 3:37 PM, during which time winds were primarily from the southwest, placing the complainant's home downwind of AK Steel during the approximate time the fallout occurred.

Johnson Advanced Disposal Services Arbor Hills Landfill Inc. 10833 West Five Mile Road, Building B Northville, Michigan 48167 Dear Mr. Johnson: SUBJECT: Third Quarter Inspection FY 2019 -Violation Notice (VN) Arbor Hills West Expanded Sanitary Landfill; Facility ID 475946 On May 9, 2019 staff of the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) Materials Management Division (MMD), conducted an inspection of Arbor Hills West Expanded Sanitary Landfill (Facility) located at 10690 Six Mile Road, Northville, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine compliance with the requirements of Part 115, Solid Waste Management, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451), and the administrative rules. MMD staff have the following areas of concern based on evaluation of the Operating Record and discussions with Advanced Disposal Services (ADS) staff during the above referenced inspection: 1. As-built information was recently made available for the leachate collection system for each cell and it was determined that the leachate sumps in most cells have a different (lower) compliance level than what was previously reported. 2. Related to the item above, leachate control panels require modifications, such as adjusting pump on levels and high levels indicators, in order to correlate with the as-built sump depths, properly maintain the leachate control system, and ensure accurate records. 3. Leachate collection system recordkeeping forms need to be revised to include actual sump depth/compliance levels, daily precipitation information, and any relevant notes regarding equipment failure/maintenance. 4. It was observed that there is no direct measurement of leachate head on the Cell 1 primary liner and it is believed that leachate from Cell 1 flows via gravity into the Cells 2 and 3 leachate collection systems. The necessary as-built drawings to confirm the fate of the Cell 1 leachate flow/path/direction could not be located during the inspection, making it difficult to determine compliance. 5. The Facility needs to develop a schedule for regular inspection and cleaning of the leachate collection and transmission system, and to maintain records of these activities in the onsite Operating Record. 6. An average daily flow rate in the secondary collection system (SGS) for Cell 4 that exceeds the action flow rate (AFR) has been continuously identified each month since January 2018 (this issue was previously identified in the January 24, 2019 VN in conjunction with the requirements R 299.4432(3)(a)). Under R 299.4432(3)(d) action must be initiated, as specified in the rule, within 30 days of the end of the month in which the exceedance occurred. Therefore, for each month that the AFR exceedance continues, the Facility is required to evaluate and update the liquids management plan to reduce the flow in the secondary and to comply with the additional requirements of R 299.4437, including sampling and analysis of the liquids. ADS have outstanding Part 115 violations as listed in Violation Notices dated January 24, 2019, March 14, 2019, and April 11, 2019. In addition, based on MM D's recent inspection, ADS is in violation of the following provision of Part 115 and the administrative rules: 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY• JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 Michigan.gov/EGLE• 517-780-7690Mr. Mark A Johnson Page 2 May 24, 2019 • Significant exceedances of leachate levels in Cell 3 over the months of January to mid-April, in addition to continued exceedances in Cell 4 contrary to R 299.4432(1 ). During the inspection it appeared that primary liner head levels were reduced in the cells on that day, however, several months of data will be needed to confirm whether the underlying issues that caused the elevated head levels have been adequately resolved. In order to return to compliance, ADS must properly address the head levels of the leachate control system, determine the reason behind, and rectify, the AFR exceedance, and illustrate continuous compliance. Please provide monthly data that confirms continual compliance for our review. MMD staff is requesting a status update regarding your proposed responses to these violations, specifically, Part 115 violations with respect to the elevated leachate levels in Cells 3 and 4 and the AFR exceedance in the Cell 4 SGS. Please provide a written response to this correspondence by June 18, 2019 that includes the following information: 1. A status update for ongoing corrective actions implemented to reduce leachate levels and attain/maintain compliance with the leachate head requirements of the Part 115 administrative rules. 2. An updated liquids management plan for the Cell 4 leak detection system that meets the requirements of Part 115 administrative rules. 3. Documentation that any necessary changes have been made at the leachate sump/pump control panels to accurately monitor and control leachate head levels based on the as-built sump depths. 4. A revised form for recordkeeping for leachate levels and volumes that includes updated compliance levels, precipitation data, and relevant notes. 5. A proposed schedule for inspecting and cleaning leachate collection/transmission system components to assure proper operation. 6. Documentation/confirmation based on as-built information as to the fate of leachate from the Cell 1 primary liner system.

Campbell Plant, Unit 2 (EUBOILER2) experienced a drive motor failure forcing the Pulse Jet Fabric Filter (PJFF) into emergency bypass mode, thus being put offline. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451 and the requirements of ROP No. MI-ROP-B2835-2013b, EUBOILER2, Special Conditions (SC) 111.2, IV.1, and IV.2 and FGBOILER12, SC IV.1, which require that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. The bypass of the PJFF resulted in 100 percent opacity readings from the Continuous Opacity Monitoring System (COMS). The entire event lasted for a duration of 2.5 hours, resulting in an average opacity of 97 percent, which is in excess of the 20 percent allowed under ROP No. MI-ROP-B2835-2013b. This constitutes a violation of the emissions allowed by Rule 301 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, and the requirements of ROP No. MI-ROP-B2835-2013b, EUBOILER2, SC 1.1 and 1.5. Consumers Energy Company, J.H. Campbell Plant relies on opacity monitoring as an indicator of compliance with the Particulate Matter (PM) emission limits of 0.16 pounds of PM per 1,000 pounds of exhaust gas and 0.015 pounds of PM per MMBtu Heat Input. The documented 100 percent opacity is indicative of PM emissions greater than allowed in Rule 331 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, Table 31 and EUBOILER2, SC 1.1 and 1.5 of ROP No. MI-ROP-B2835-2013b. This constitutes a violation of Rule 331, which prohibits emissions of particulate matter from any process or process equipment in excess of the maximum allowable emission rate. It should be noted that the majority of the cited conditions are also enforceable under U.S. V CONSUMERS ENERGY COMPANY, CIVIL ACTION 14-13580, E.D. MICH., 2014. Since the Excess Emissions Report detailed the dates the violations occurred, an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations, and summary of the actions taken to correct the violations, no additional follow up is required.

The Odor Management Plan Section 2.3c states that ""each day, cleaning activities are performed on the visible and accessible areas of the tipping floors; floors in the Processing Building; stairs, handrails, and around conveyor motors and couplings; and processing equipment (mobile equipment, conveyors, and shredders)."" During the inspection on April 17, 2019, neither the tipping floor, pit area, or process equipment appeared to be cleaned. The tipping floor and pit area were observed to have standing water and excessive garbage buildup. The primary shredder area contained excessive garbage buildup on catwalks, stairways, and throughout the primary shredder area. During the inspection it was apparent that daily cleaning is not taking place in a sufficient manner.

The proper operation of the gas collection and control system (GCCS) is required as outlined in the facility's Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP N6008-2015a, Permit to Install (PTI) 117-16, and the Standards of Performance for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills codified under 40 CFR 60, Subpart WWW. On February 11, 2019, the AQD sent OHO a Violation Notice citing violations discovered as a result of the landfill's gas collection system being shut down after the facility's control system, the flare, became inoperable due to low ambient outdoor temperatures. The shutdown of the gas collection system due to the flare being inoperable lasted for nearly three (3) full days between January 28-30, 2019. The AQD requested the facility's written response by March 4, 2019. On March 4, 2019, the AQD received a response via email from OHO for the Violation Notice. The AQD has reviewed the response and determined that the response is not adequate regarding resolving the violations. OHO indicated in the response that this event was a malfunction and did not offer any solutions to prevent this from occurring again. The flare being inoperable due to low ambient outdoor temperatures between January 28-30, 2019, subjects the facility to the compliance provisions of 40 CFR 60.755(e) as outlined in the facility's PTI 117-16, Special Condition IX.1; ""The duration of start-up, shutdown, or malfunction for the open flare shall not exceed one (1) hour."" Furthermore, the flare being inoperable due to low ambient outdoor temperatures is not an acceptable malfunction event. The DEQ-AQD Air Pollution Control Rules; Part 1 General Provisions; Rule 336.1101; defines malfunction as; 27700 DONALD COURT• WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 www.michigan.gov/deq • (586) 753~3700Mr. Robb Moore Page 2 March 25, 2019 ""Any sudden, infrequent and not reasonably preventable failure of a source, process, process equipment, or air pollution control equipment to operate in a normal or usual manner. Failures that are caused in part by poor maintenance or careless operation are not malfunctions."" The email notification indicated the flare froze and became inoperable at approximately 1 :30 a.m. on January 28, 2019, and hence shut down the gas collection system. At the time the flare became inoperable, historical weather records indicate the ambient outdoor air temperature in the city of Auburn Hills was six (6) degrees Fahrenheit with cloudy skies. OHO has previously discussed possible cold weather measures with the department during past GCCS occurrences that would prevent this exact type of event from occurring. The OEQ-AQO Air Pollution Control Rules; Part 9 Emission Limitation and Prohibitions Miscellaneous; Rule 336.191 0; Air-cleaning devices states; ""An air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with these rules and existing law."" Maintaining the flare to withstand low ambient outdoor temperatures is a reasonable preventable occurrence. The facility's ROP process descriptions EULANOFILL Special Condition IV.2(a)(b), EUALGCS Special Condition IV.2, and EUFLARE Special Condition 111.9 all reference 40 CFR 60.752(b)(2)(iii) which indicates the collected gas shall be routed to an open flare, control system, or a treatment system for subsequent sale. The gas was not collected at all. OHO indicated in the response that that no emission exceedances occurred because the GCCS was closed within one (1) hour. The AQO cannot verify this information. Shutting down the gas collection system does not stop landfill gas from being generated within the waste. Given that surface monitoring scans were not performed during the shutdown, OHO cannot state that uncontrolled gas emissions into the atmosphere through active cracks and openings of the landfill cover did not occur. In addition, process description EUALGCS Special Condition IV.1 (c) references 40 CFR 60.752(b)(2)(ii)(A)(3) which indicates the active collection system shall collect gas at a sufficient extraction rate. There was no gas extraction occurring when the gas collection system was shut down due to the flare being inoperable. Recent department inspections in 2016 and 2017 indicate that approximately 3,300 ft3/min of landfill gas was being collected within the wellfield. This represents a shortage of 3,300 ft3/min of landfill gas during GCCS shutdown events. New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) do not require redundancy for gas collection and control systems, however, the NSPS does not recognize gas collectionMr. Robb Moore Page 3 March 25, 2019 systems being shut down due to failing to maintain control devices to withstand low ambient outdoor temperatures. In addition, the AQD does not agree with OHD's assertion that the flare serves only as a back-up control device. The AQD maintains the flare is the primary control device at OHO. The AQD believes the gas pipeline on the property site managed by Waste Management Renewable Energy (WMRE) serves as the back-up control device, which is used to send landfill gas to serve the engines at a nearby General Motors facility. Until recently, General Motors in-conjunction with WMRE, opted to stop receiving landfill gas from OHO due to the high Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) concentration within the landfill the last two years. The pipeline was shut down October 26, 2018, through February 20, 2019, due to the construction of a sulfur removal treatment system by WMRE on the pipeline. Furthermore, the pipeline is connected in-conjunction to another pipeline nearby at the WMRE owned Eagle Valley Recycle and Disposal Landfill Facility. During the construction of the sulfur removal system by WMRE at the OHO site, General Motors was only receiving landfill gas from Eagle Valley Recycle and Disposal Landfill Facility. In addition, the General Motors facility primarily only accepts landfill gas when needed during weekday production hours of 6 a.m. through 4 p.m. Past and current records indicate that OHO sends a landfill gas peak flowrate of approximately 1,700 ft3/min to the General Motors facility during work hours. In other words, OHO can only send landfill gas to the General Motors facility if they're willing to accept it. Based on the most recent department inspection at OHO and the facility's recent MAERS submittals, landfill gas flowrates to the flare were approximately 3,000 ft3/min. The last department inspection in 2017 indicated a flowrate of 2,860 ft3/min to the flare and only 500 ft3/min to the General Motors facility. Therefore, the assertion made by OHO that the pipeline serves as the facility's ""primary control device"" is simply not true. OHO used to have two (2) enclosed flares on site, one (1) primary and one (1) back-up. These flares had total design flowrate of 4,800 ft3/min, however, OHO chose to dismantle both of these flares in 2015 and replace them with the current one (1) open flare which has a design flowrate of 5,100 ft3/min. That decision, combined with the General Motors pipeline being the ""true"" back-up control device, only further emphasizes the need for OHO to maintain this current open flare to withstand low ambient outdoor temperatures, or install redundancy equipment within the landfill in order to avoid a GCCS shutdown from happening again during future winter seasons.Mr. Robb Moore Page4 March 25, 2019 The DEQ-AQD is requesting OHO take the proactive steps necessary to ensure safe air pollution control practices and to prevent the negative impact of uncontrolled air pollution emissions to the community. Please be advised that failure to respond in writing and identifying actions Oakland Heights Development Inc. will take or has taken to resolve the cited violations may result in escalated enforcement action by the AQD. Please provide the information requested in our first violation letter by April 8, 2019, which corresponds to 14 days from the date of this letter.

This letter also requested the company submit the additional information by March 4, 2019. To date, this additional information has not been received and the time period for submitting this requested information has expired. Please be advised that the failure to submit a timely and complete response to a . departmental request for additional information for review of a ROP application has resulted in the loss of the application shield pursuant to Rule 210(3) of the administrative rules promulgated under Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451 ). Operation of the process or process equipment without the benefit of the application shield constitutes a violation of Rule 210(1 ). Furthermore, on October 15, 2018, Michigan Sugar Company - Caro Factory's ROP expired. In accordance with Rule 217(1)(c), the source has lost its ""permit shield"" because the ROP has expired. In addition, according to Section 5506(2) of Act 451, the expiration of an operating permit terminates the person's right to operate a source.

Note [1] Quarterly surface methane scans failed to indicate if areas of distressed vegetation, cracks, or seeps in the cover were investigated beyond the prescribed path of the scan, despite monthly landfill cover integrity inspections highlighting numerous such areas. Also, the scans consistently avoided active areas on the landfill that could have been easily traversed during off hours. Finally, the pathways that were followed during the scans appear to only be depicted as approximations on landfill maps despite having the ability to use GPS technology to accurately depict locations traversed. Note [2] 2018 Monthly Cover Integrity Inspections show numerous problems, including settling of the cap, dead vegetation, erosion on side slopes, ponding of water on the cap, surface cracking, exposed waste/flagging and leachate seeps. Also, many acres at the top part of the landfill lack proper interim cover (i.e. 1-foot of low permeability, compacted soil) despite not having had waste disposed in this area for many months. It is also noted there has been and continues to be numerous construction activities disturbing landfill cover which haven't been quickly repaired. Taken together, this shows cover integrity remains problematic. Cover integrity is necessary to minimize surface emissions of landfill gas and to ensure efficient extraction of gas through a landfill's gas collection system. Note [3] 4th Quarter 2018 Gas Collection NSPS Well Exceedances Report shows numerous wells exceeding required NSPS landfill gas collection operating parameters at the conclusion of the reporting period. The NSPS requires that exceedances of the gas collection control system (GCCS) wellhead monitoring parameters (temperature, oxygen, and pressure) are corrected within 15 calendar days, the GCCS is expanded within 120 days or an alternative compliance timeline (ACT) request be submitted. The Company has failed to be timely with ACT requests. This is a reoccurring problem. See Attachment (1) for details. Note [4] The Company has failed to implement a proper landfill gas collection system design to mitigate the subsurface migration of methane. Subsurface methane concentrations at perimeter monitoring probes have been exceeding regulatory limits since 2003. The Company reported to the Waste Management and Radiological Protection Division (WMRPD) on 4/26/2018 that methane levels exceeding the lower explosive limit (LEL) are continuing. Methane surface scans as late as 4th quarter 2018 showed methane also at the surface along the eastern boundary of the facility. Part 115 Rule 433 was also cited by the WMRPD on January 7, 2019 for this same issue. Note [5] NSPS Subpart WWW requires proper well design to properly handle water/leachate condensate in landfill gas wells. NESHAP Subpart AAAA requires owner or operator must operate and maintain any affected source, including associated air pollution control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. Report on liquid level in gas wells was submitted by Company for well data obtained in September 2018. Leachate in the landfill gas wells impairs functionality of gas extraction. The design for vertical gas extraction wells includes an estimated radius of influence (ROI) which is based in part on the length of perforated pipe available for gas flow. A substantially flooded well will be limited in its ROI and this will lead to gaps in gas collection coverage. Liquid level data of 215 wells was available for September 2018. Of those 215, 151 wells had more than 50% of the perforated well screen portion of the well submerged in liquid. Of those 151, 75 wells were more than 75% blocked and 35 wells were fully saturated with liquid. ThisMr. Mark Johnson 4 March 14, 2019 even though many of the wells are equipped with pumps to remove the leachate. Good engineering practices note that no more than 25% of the well screen should be covered in water. The well data shows that overall, the effectiveness of the entire landfill gas collection system has been significantly degraded by this problem. See Attachment (2). The table was constructed based on liquid levels measured by the Fortistar Methane Group. The liquid levels were measured from the top of the wells using a liquid level indicator meter. The % open screen was calculated based on available well construction records. (Note that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agent-Region V (EPA) reported that as of September 29, 2016, 70 wells had more than 50% of the perforated well screen portion of the well submerged by leachate which shows that the problem of saturated landfill gas wells has increased since that time.) Liquid levels for the gas wells listed in Attachment (2) raises concerns about the functionality of these gas wells. Many of the wells listed also exhibit high methane concentrations (over 55%) along with notes indicating that the valve is 100% open. This is a strong indication that liquid levels are impeding gas collection. In addition, even if the wells with high liquid levels appear to be productive currently, the long-term presence of liquids can contribute to fouling of the stone and well screen, reducing the effectiveness of these wells over time. The Company should immediately begin evaluating the gas wells listed in Attachment (2) to determine which wells warrant the installation of pumps or to identify other appropriate corrective actions. Although Attachment (2) lists gas wells that may already have pumps, many of these wells still exhibited elevated liquid levels. There is concern on whether the pumps and force mains are effective for allowing adequate dewatering of these wells. While it is understood that some liquid recharge in the wells would occur during the liquid level gauging activities, it would not be expected to see this level of flooding in this number of wells where pumps were already in place. The Company should conduct an evaluation of the gas wells listed in Attachment (2) to ensure that the installed pumps are functional, that the pump's discharge capacity is adequate to conduct effective dewatering, and that the force main for the pump discharge is not obstructed. The Company should also evaluate the wells for which well screen saturation information was not provided to the DEQ. The following gas wells appear to be pinched or otherwise significantly obstructed based on information received from the Company: AHW223R4, AHWW261R, AHWW265R, AHWW0281, AHWW0303, AHWW0334, AHWW0416, AHWW0421, AHWW0422, AHEW028M, AHWW0278, AHWW251 R, AHWW273R, AHWW273R, AHWW0289, AHWW0305, AHEW026M, AHEW031M, AHC4W107, AH146AR2. The Company should conduct an evaluation for these wells to determine which are no longer viable based on the depth of the pinch/obstruction and the available gas quality/vacuum/flow data, etc. Note [6]. The MAP was submitted to the AQD in the Fall of 2018. It failed to identify blowers as major replacement parts that should be maintained in inventory for quick replacement in the event they failed. This contributed to the 4+ months it took to resolve a major malfunction of the blower system that feeds landfill gas to the flares lasted. In addition, the MAP does not include the required descriptions of the corrective procedures or operational changes that shall be taken in the event of a malfunction or failure to achieve compliance with the applicable emission limits. Note [7]. WWW compliance requirements apply such as directing all collected landfill gas to a treatment system or flare, except during periods of start-up, shutdown, or malfunction, providedMr. Mark Johnson 5 March 14, 2019 that the duration of start-up, shutdown, or malfunction shall not exceed 5 days for collection systems and shall not exceed 1 hour for treatment or control devices. There were several incidents in 2018/2019 that either due to problems at the AHE facility, construction downtime, blower problems or issues with liquid in the knockout tank preventing gas from reaching the flares that lasted longer than one hour. In additions to the alleged violations outlined above, there are several areas of concern that need to be addressed. -The Company is adding sewage sludge and other types of wastewater sludge material to Cell 4E. For the purposes of NESHAP AAAA, these types of high-water content wastes are considered liquids for the purposes of showing compliance with bioreactor requirements in 40 CFR 63.1947, 63.1955(c), and 63.1955(c) through (f). This cell is not controlled by a landfill gas collection system that has been activated, so calculations need to be done to show that the percent moisture by weight expected in the waste mass to which liquid is being added is less than 40 percent. (Note: Recent Company disclosure that as much as 27 feet of leachate was sitting on parts of the landfill liner for Cell 4 suggests the waste mass may have become saturated. This could greatly accelerate the generation of landfill gas in a location that is not yet controlled by the gas well collection system.) The calculation must consider the waste mass, moisture content of the incoming waste, mass of the water added to the waste including any leachate recirculation and other liquids addition, and precipitation, and the mass of water removed or other water losses. Moisture level sampling or mass balances calculations can be used. Please provide these calculations as part of your response to this VN using the most recent data available. -Letter of Concern dated January 2, 2019, outlined concerns about significant odors emanating from a leachate seep known as TS-01. This leachate seep has been present at the landfill since at least May 2018 and has yet to be resolved by the Company. Please provide an update on what the Company is doing to resolve this matter and the other areas of concerned outlined in the letter. The site visit conducted on March 12, 2019, identified new sources of odors at the facility in addition to the TS-01 seep and associated odorous ""frac"" tanks. These include a new leachate seep located just west of the TS-01 seep with a leachate creek draining down towards the base of the landfill, and two highly odorous landfill gas areas coming out of the ground located above the north gee-liner. Odors were also coming from a passive landfill gas vent located near Six Mile road. In addition, there was a probable landfill gas bubble under the gee-liner on the northwest side of the landfill, a much larger gas bubble under the north gee-liner on the liner's west side, and a surface landfill gas seep just above the TS-01 area. Please provide an update on how the Company will be dealing with these new areas of concern. -Based on the three (3) visits to the active asbestos disposal areas, there is a concern that the asbestos waste is not being covered with soil each evening on days after a shipment has been received. Rather, it is suspected that it is being done when a disposal pit is full which can take days or weeks. The disposal area on top of the landfill is highly exposed to wind and any asbestos from a broken bag could be quickly blown downwind. It also could represent a hazard to workers servicing nearby landfill gas wells or truck drivers in the area. Please provide daily asbestos records for the month of January 2019 that shows exactly what asbestos wastes were received each day and subsequently disposed of. Provide this information with the response to the VN.Mr. Mark Johnson 6 March 14, 2019 -Please provide a written update on the status of fixing the landfill gas blower flare issue and installing back-up electrical capacity for the flares as outlined in VN dated February 7, 2019. -Inspection of the compost facility showed that there was a large pile of highly odorous leaves and other organic material that had been received that hadn't been placed in the windrows. It appeared that this material had already partially decomposed and was in an anaerobic state giving off ammonia and hydrogen sulfide odors. Please explain in detail why the Company is receiving material that is already partially decomposed and highly odorous or otherwise.not quickly processing the material. -Highly odorous piles of contaminated soils or other types of odorous waste materials continue to be stock piled at the top portion of the landfill to be used as daily cover at the active face portion of the landfill. There is no indication that this odorous material is being quickly covered upon placement either at the top of the landfill or at the open face. Please explain why the Company is continuing this practice despite it contributing to the well documented odor problem coming from the landfill. -Arbor Hills Landfill Operations Evaluation Report prepared by Clarke M. Lundell, P.E. dated May 16, 2018, was reviewed as part of this inspection. This report outlined several recommendations that the facility should implement to improve operations at the landfill. Please provide a written update to the status of implementing these recommendations or otherwise provide comment on why these recommendations have not been implemented. Note that many of the recommendations are directly related to remedying the on-going odor problems at the landfill.

(ADS) located at 10690 West Six Mile Road, Northville Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine the ADS's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451) and the associated Air Pollution Control Rules, the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-N2688-2011 a; and Permit to Install (PTI) permits 19-178 & 79-17.

GCCS WWW 40 CFR 60.759; NESHAP 40 GCCS wells impaired due to CFR 63.6(e)(1}(i). high liquid levels or otherwise compromised. See Note [3]. Note [1] Quarterly surface methane scans reported on by the Company failed to indicate if areas of distressed vegetation, cracks, or seeps in the cover were investigated beyond the prescribed path of the scan, despite monthly landfill cover integrity inspections highlighting numerous such areas. Also, the scans consistently avoided active areas on the landfill that could have been easily traversed during off-hours. Finally, the pathways that were followed during the scans appears to only be depicted as approximations on landfill maps despite having the ability to use GPS technology to accurately depict locations traversed. Note [2] 4th Quarter 2018 Gas Collection NSPS Well Exceedances Report shows numerous wells exceeding required NSPS landfill gas collection operating parameters at the conclusion of the reporting period. The NSPS requires that exceedances of the gas collection control system (GCCS) wellhead monitoring parameters (temperature, oxygen, and pressure) are corrected within 15 calendar days, the GCCS is expanded within 120 days or an alternative compliance timeline (ACT) request be submitted. The Company in conjunction with ADS has failed to be timely with ACT requests. This is a reoccurring problem. See Attachment (1) for details. Note [3] NSPS Subpart WWW requires proper well design to properly handle water/leachate condensate in landfill gas wells. NESHAP Subpart AAAA requires owner or operator must operate and maintain any affected source, including associated air pollution control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. Report on liquid level in gas wells was submitted by ADS for well data obtained in September 2018. Leachate in the landfill gas wells impairs functionality of gas extraction. The design for vertical gas extraction wells includes '.an estimated radius of influence (ROI) which is based in part on the length of perforated pipe available for gas flow. A substantially flooded well will be limited in its ROI and this will lead to gaps in gas collection coverage. Liquid level data of 215 wells was available for September 2018. Of those 215, 151 wells had more than 50% of the perforated well screen portion of the well submerged in liquid. Of those 151, 75 wells were more than 75% blocked and 35 wells were fully saturated with liquid. This even though many of the wells are equipped with pumps to remove the leachate. Good engineering practices note that no more than 25% of the well screen should be covered in water. The well data shows that overall, the effectiveness of the entire landfill gas collection system has been significantly degraded by this problem. See Attachment (2). The table was constructed based on liquid levels measured by the Company. The liquid levels were measured from the top of the wells using a liquid level indicator meter. The % open screen was calculatedMr. Anthony Falbo 3 March 14, 2019 based on available well c.onstruction records. (Note that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agent-Region V (EPA) reported that as of September 29, 2016, 70 wells had more than 50% of the perforated well screen portion of the well submerged by leachate which shows that the problem of saturated landfill gas wells has increased since that time.) Liquid levels for the gas wells listed in Attachment (2) raises concerns about the functionality of these gas wells. Many of the wells listed also exhibit high methane concentrations (over 55%) along with notes indicating that the valve is 100% open. This is a strong indication that liquid levels are impeding gas collection. In addition, even if the wells with high liquid levels appear to be productive currently, the long-term presence of liquids can contribute to fouling of the stone and well screen, reducing the effectiveness of these wells over time. The C.ompany, in conjunction with ADS, should immediately begin evaluating the gas wells listed in Attachment (2) to determine which wells warrant the installation of pumps or to identify other appropriate corrective actions. Although Attachment (2) lists gas wells that may already have pumps, many of these wells still exhibited elevated liquid levels. There is concern on whether the pumps and force mains are effective for allowing adequate dewatering of these wells. While it is understood that some liquid recharge in the wells would occur during the liquid level gauging activities, it would not be expected to see this level of flooding in this number of wells where pumps were already in place. The Company, in conjunction with ADS, should conduct an evaluation of the gas wells listed in Attachment (2) to ensure that the installed pumps are functional, that the pump's discharge capacity is adequate to conduct effective dewatering, and that the force main for the pump discharge is not obstructed. The Company, in conjunction with ADS, should also evaluate the wells for which well screen saturation information was not provided to the DEQ. The following gas wells appear to be pinched or otherwise significantly obstructed based on information received from the Company: AHW223R4, AHWW261R, AHWW265R, AHWW0281, AHWW0303, AHWW0334, AHWW0416, AHWW0421, AHWW0422, AHEW028M, AHWW0278, AHWW251R, AHWW273R, AHWW273R, AHWW0289, AHWW0305, AHEW026M, AHEW031M, AHC4W107, AH146AR2. The Company, in conjunction with ADS should conduct an evaluation for these wells to determine which are no longer viable based on the depth of the pinch/obstruction and the available gas quality/vacuum/flow data, etc. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by April 4, 2019. The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The reported emissions for the 2017 MAERS were based on gas samples that were collected May 31, 2016. On-going landfill gas sampling is demonstrating sulfur concentrations in the gas that are approximately 16 times the AP-42 concentrations. Please be advised that potential emissions of SO2 could be greater than 40 tons per year which exceeds the significant threshold and may trigger New Source Review (NSR) for a major modification. At a minimum, this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451). A program for compliance includes a completed PTI application for the five (5) Caterpillar 3516 engines. An application has been submitted to address the increase in SO2 emissions but is deficient and currently off-line. As stated in the additional information request letter dated February 20, 2019: 1) Since the increase in total sulfur in the landfill gas is considered a change in the method of operation, and effects the exempt equipment at the facility, the five (5) 3516 engines are part of the project and require permitting, per Rule 201. This includes, but is not limited to, a regulatory discussion (state and federal), control technology discussion, emission calculations (including Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions), equipment parameters and locations. Please provide all calculations, assumptions, and documentation of the applicable requirements and how you intend to comply with items 2- 7 below. (Items 2- 7 not included here.) Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 25, 2019, (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violations occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violations; whether the violations are ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violations and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The flare was originally evaluated using the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Compilation of Air Pollutant Emissions Factors (AP-42). The revised emissions calculations for MAERS were based on landfill gas samples that were collected in December 2016. Additional landfill gas sampling has demonstrated the sulfur concentration in the landfill gas as high as 700 parts per million which is above the AP-42 concentration of 46 parts per million and which results in SO2 emissions above the significance level defined in Rule 119(e). At a minimum, this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451). A modification is defined by Rule 113(e) as ""making a physical change in, or change in the method of operation of, existing process or process equipment which increases the amount of any air contaminant emitted into the outer air.""

The purpose of the inspection was to determine Superior Asphalt's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended; the Air Pollution Control Rules; and to investigate a complaint which we received on December 12, 2018, regarding foul odors attributed to Superior Asphalt's operations. On January 11, 2019, the AQD sent Superior Asphalt a Violation Notice citing the violation discovered as a result of the inspection and requested your written response by February 1, 2019. A copy of that letter is enclosed for your reference. The AQD received your response on February 1, 2019 which indicated that Superior Asphalt disagrees with the Rule 901 violation ""based on the fact that paving operations were taking place at the plant site and that paving operations are not considered part of the facility air permit requirements."" The response letter implies that the violation letter was issued based upon one complaint investigation. This is inaccurate. The AQD based the violation notice on multiple odor investigations related to multiple complaints the AQD received throughout the year. During the multiple complaint investigations, the AQD established that the odors emitted by Superior Asphalt Inc. were of sufficient frequency, duration and intensity to constitute a violation of Rule 901. During the December 12, 2018 odor investigation, the AQD informed you of the multiple complaints and odor investigations. You were also made aware that during the multiple investigations, strong asphalt odors associated with Superior Asphalt Inc. were observed off-site in residential areas and that these observations are factored into a Rule 901 violation. While conducting the past complaint investigations, the AQD also often informed the Plant Manager, Tony Stepek, of the complaints and the AQD's odor observations.

You also indicated that this asphalt was sold as square ""football sized"" pieces which can be reheated and placed as a road patch. In the response letter, it is indicated that Superior Asphalt Inc. believes that the odors observed on December 12, 2018 were caused by paving on site. The production of these bricks does not appear to be normal paving operations but instead appears to be the manufacturing of a product. This manufacturing operation also appears to emit air contaminants including odors.

BOX 30473 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7973 www.michigan.gov/deq • (800) 662-9278Mr. Robert Walls Page 2 February 7, 2019 The Company operates a gas collection and control system (GCCS) at the Arbor Hills Landfill. The GCCS consist of approximately 400 active gas wells. The collected landfill gas is routed to a landfill gas-to-energy (LFGTE) facility owned by Arbor Hills Energy LLC (AHE) with backup flares owned by the Company to be used in the event of an outage at the LFGTE facility. AHE is currently burning approximately 10,000 standard cubic feet per minute (scfm) of landfill gas in their 4 gas turbines and is at or near record levels of production. At the start of 2018, the backup flare system consisted of two enclosed style flares with combined rating as determined by stack test of 6145 scfm that were located on the South side of the landfill next to the AHE facility and a temporary candlestick flare rated at 3000 scfm on the North side of the facility. (This gives a combined flaring capacity of 9145 scfm.) This temporary flare and associated blower had been installed since March 2017 to address an issue of inadequate vacuum being applied to wells in the NW part of the landfill due to restrictions in the gas piping system that directs gas to the AHE facility nearly a mile away. This issue had been contributing to the well documented odor problem at the landfill. Review of 2018 landfill gas data consumed at the AHE facility and the amount of landfill gas consumed by the flares during partial or complete shutdowns of the turbines and associated blowers at AHE showed that the flaring generally consumed less than 90% of the expected gas production that would have occurred if the AHE had been operating at the production rate that was occurring just prior to a plant outage. An adequately designed/properly operated flaring system should be able to provide the same level of vacuum to the wellfield and capture/burn similar levels of landfill gas as the LFGTE facility. In early August 2018, the Company completed connection of a 36"" pipe into the LFGTE facility which completed the connection to the upgraded perimeter piping system. This dramatically increased the landfill gas flowing to the AHE plant and reduced the required vacuum that needed to be applied at AHE on the wellfield due to the remedied pressure bottleneck under the railroad tracks. It also served to reduce the effectiveness of the temporary flare as the vacuum draw from the AHE facility blowers and enclosed flares competed with that of the temporary flare. After this point in time, the Company operated the temporary flare less and when it did operate, it operated at reduced capacity. In early September 2018, the Company began construction/reconstruction of the landfill gas piping system and the associated blower system that supplies landfill gas to the two enclosed style flares. This construction project also included a tie in of the new 5000 scfm candlestick style flare using a common set of new blowers shared with the existing enclosed flares.Mr. Robert Walls Page 3 February 7, 2019 On November 17, 2018, the new 5000 scfm flare began operation. On December 17, 2018, the DEQ received an email (and subsequent emails) from the Company describing the blower related issues that had developed. The email stated: ""When we were in the process of commissioning the control system and when we tried to bring the 5,000 SCFM blowers online, the blowers would over-amp. They simply could not run and supply the required flow to the system. On December 6, 2018, the company that constructed the blowers (Lonestar), had a technician come on-site to see if he could diagnose the problem. The Lonestar technician could not determine why the blowers were over-amping and his initial thought was that the motors were under-sized. The Lonestar engineers went back and re-calculated their numbers to see of that truly was the issue and they deemed that the way the blowers were designed should be sufficient for our needs. On December 13, 2018, Lonestar requested that we send back one of the blowers so that can take a closer look at the blower and the motor separately to assure there is not an issue. Lonestar initiated diagnostic testing on January 7th. As of the date of this response, Lonestar still has not definitively determined the cause of the over-amping and has requesting assistance from the motor vendor for the blowers. They are also evaluating options for reconfiguring the blower assembly to reduce the electric startup requirements causing the over-amping without compromising blower performance. Once their assessment is complete and provided to ADS we will update DEQ on their status."" The onsite inspection conducted in January 2019 confirmed that the blower issues were affecting operation of all 3 flares located on the south side of the landfill. Company personnel estimated that the total flaring capacity of these 3 flares combined was no more than 3000 scfm since they could not operate the blowers at full capacity due to the over-amping problem. The Company also confirmed that in the event of a power outage, the flaring system would be disabled. The Company has no back-up generators capable of supplying enough power to the control room or the flare blowers nor is the system setup to wire in back-up power. The adjacent AHE facility also does not have back-up generators so a power outage would prevent operation of the turbines and associated blowers. Due to the close proximity of the AHE facility and the flaring system, it appears likely that any power outage would affect both facilities simultaneously. On January 29, 2019, the temporary flare on the North side of landfill was permanently disabled in accordance with the termination date in PTI 19-17B. At last report from the Company, the blower problem had not been resolved and there was no indication of when the blower would be fixed. As of now, in the event of an outage at AHE, the Company would not be able to provide more than 3000 scfm of flaring backup. In the event of a power outage, the Company would have no backup flaring capacity. This represents a shortfall of between 7,000 and 10,000 scfm of landfill gas. An outage atMr. Robert Walls Page 4 February 7, 2019 AHE and inadequate back-up flaring would likely result in highly odorous emissions from the surface of the landfill itself which could impact nearby residents. The amount of time that has elapsed to resolve the blower issue is considered unacceptable. The AQD is requesting that the Company take prompt action to fix the blowers to restore flaring capacity in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control principles for minimizing emissions to prevent the possibility of any negative impacts on nearby residents in the event of an outage at the AHE facility. Furthermore, the Company needs to install a properly sized back-up electrical generator system for the flares. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by February 14, 2019 (which coincides with 7 calendar days from the date of this letter).

A copy of updated special conditions and the forms are enclosed. During this inspection, it was noted that Bluebird Enterprises had reconstructed and commenced operation of a prime booth, two paint booths, and a touch up paint booth in 2014, following a fire. This is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. Rule 201 states, in part: ""Rule 201. (1) Except as allowed in R 336.1202, R 336.1277 to R 336.1291, or R 336.2823(15) a person shall not install, construct, reconstruct, relocate, or modify any process or process equipment, including control equipment pertaining thereto, which may emit any of the following, unless a permit to install that authorizes such action is issued by the department. (a) Any air pollutant regulated by title I of the clean air act and its associated rules, including 40 C.F.R. §51.165 and §51.166, adopted by reference in R 336.1902. (b) Any air contaminant. A person who plans to install, construct, reconstruct, relocate, or modify any such process or process equipment shall apply to the department for a permit to install on an application form approved by the department and shall provide the information required in R 336.1203."" A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the reconstructed prime booth, the two reconstructed paint booths, and the touch up paint booth. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/deqair (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). This is also a violation of general Permit to Install (PTI) No. 256-04, updated Special Condition (SC) FG-COAT l NG IX. 1. a. This condition states: 1. The permittee shall not replace or modify any portion of FG-COATING, including control equipment or coatings, nor install additional coating lines (or any portion of, including control equipment or coatings) unless all of the following conditions are met: (R 336.1201) a. The permittee shall update the general permit by submitting a new Process Information form (EQP5759) to the Permit Section and District Supervisor, identifying the existing and new equipment a minimum of 10 days before the replacement, modification or installation of new equipment. Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. In addition, please provide a facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration for all pollutants at the source. Information on calculating PTE can be found at http://www/michigan.gov/deqair. Choose the ""Permits"" Tab, then ""Air Permitting-Potential to Emit"" under the Air Permitting Assistance Heading.Mr. Scott Lewis Page3 February 5, 2019 During this inspection, I requested copies of facility recordkeeping, including Safety Data Sheets, coating use records, and VOC emission calculations. Following the inspection, Bluebird Enterprises had not provided the requested records. We discussed this by phone on January 9, 2019. I was advised that my business card had been lost, and so the records could not be sent to me. On January 11, 2019, I provided my contact information by e-mail, and provided a detailed listing of the records I was requesting, as well as a copy of general PTI No. 256-04. As of this date, AQD has not received a response. Please provide the requested records as soon as possible. Failure to provide requested records constitutes a violation of the recordkeeping requirements specified in the updated Special Conditions FG-COATING VI. 3, FG-COATING VI. 4, and FG-SOURCE VI. 1 of general PTI number 256-04. These requirements are individually discussed, below. General PTI No. 256-04, updated Special Condition (SC) FG-COATING VI. 3 states that: ""The permittee shall keep the following information on a monthly basis for FG-COATING: a. Purchase orders and invoices for all coatings, reducers, and purge clean-up solvents. b. VOC content, in pounds per gallon of each coating, reducer, and purge/clean-up solvent used. c. Gallons of each coating, reducer and purge/clean-up solvent used and reclaimed. d. VOC mass emission calculations determining the monthly emission rate for each coating line, in tons per calendar month, using the method specified in Appendix 8. voe e. mass emission calculations determining the annual emission rate for each coating line, in tons per 12-month rolling time period as determined at the end of each calendar month, using the method specified in Appendix 8. The permitee shall keep all records in the format specified in Appendix 8. The permittee shall keep all records and make them available to the Department upon request."" Additionally, general PTI No. 256-04, updated SC FG-COATING VI. 4 states that: ""The permittee shall maintain a current listing from the manufacturer of the chemical composition of each coating, including the weight percent of each component. The data may consist of Material Safety Data Sheets, manufacturer's formulation data, or both as deemed acceptable by the AQD District Supervisor. The permittee shall keep all records and make them available to the Department upon request."" Furthermore, general PTI No. 256-04, updated SC FG-SOURCE VI. 1 states that: ""The permittee shall keep VOC mass emission calculations, on a monthly basis for FG-SOURCE determining the annual emission rate in tons per 12-month rolling time period as determined at the end of each calendar month, for all coating lines and associated purge and clean-up operation at the source. The permittee shall keep all records in the format specified in Appendix 8 and make them available to the Department upon request."" Lastly, installation of a reconstructed prime booth, two reconstructed paint booths, and a touch up paint booth were done, following a fire several years ago, without providing notification to AQDMr. Scott Lewis Page4 February 5, 2019 pursuant to general PTI No. 256-04. This constitutes a violation of updated SC FG-COATING IX. 1. a, which states that: ""1. The permittee shall not replace or modify any portion of FG-COATING, including control equipment or coatings, nor install additional coating lines (or any portion of, including control equipment or coatings) unless all of the following conditions are met: (R 336.1201) a. The permittee shall update the general permit by submitting a new Process Information form (EQP5759) to the Permit Section and District Supervisor, identifying the existing and new equipment a minimum of 10 days before the replacement, modification or installation of new equipment.""

Opacity readings up 85% and six-minute average of 80% were read. The high opacity emissions tapered off, after 20- 30 minutes of adding wood pallets fuel to the burner, to about 10% opacity when wood flame fully developed. Newer wood stove technologies (Central Boiler Company Classic Edge 550), with sophisticated combustion controller and with secondary combustion chamber, for smoke (unburnt fuel) can practically eliminate smoke. Based upon combustion chemical reaction principals (Fuel+ Heat+ Oxygen) and 3Ts (Time, Temperature, Turbulence), smoke is burnt in secondary combustion chamber with additional oxygen I air and thus recovering useful heat that escapes via stack hidden in unburnt fuel or white smoke. 27700 DONALD COURT• WARREN, MICHIGAN 48092-2793 www.michigan.gov/deq • (586) 753-3700Mr. David Miotke Page 2 January 16, 2019 During this inspection it was noted that Packaging's Central Boiler Company Pallet Burner (Pallet Burner) processes were emitting opacity in excess of emissions allowed by Rule 301 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451.

During the inspections and during subsequent review of required recordkeeping, staff observed the following: DCP's Autosonics Model VS 6030E batch vapor degreaser using trichloroethylene (TCE) is subject to the federal National Emissions Standards for Halogenated Solvent Cleaning. These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T. Section 63.463( e )( 1 )(i) states: (i) If a freeboard refrigeration device is used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall ensure that the chilled air blanket temperature (in ° F), measured at the center of the air blanket, is no greater than 30 percent of the solvent's boiling point. During the July 31, 2018, inspection, DCP provided requested examples of record keeping which are required under Subpart T. Temperature readings for the freeboard refrigeration device (FRO) were entered on FRO Recordkeeping Forms, for the time period of August 14, 2017, through July 2, 2018. It is AQD's understanding that DCP is using as a regulatory limit 30 percent of the sump temperature of the batch vapor degreaser, which was documented as being 190 ° F. This equates to 57 ° F. Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary Twelfth Edition, used by the AQD Lansing District Office, identifies the boiling point of TCE as 86. 7 ° C, or 188.06 ° F, 30 percent of which is 56.4 ° F. AQD considers this temperature to be the maximum allowed under Subpart T, for the solvent TCE. During the review of FRO records, fourteen (14) readings were identified as being over 56.4 ° F. Of these, nine (9) were over the 57 ° F being used as the limit by DCP. The readings are listed below in chronological order: 1) 10/9/2017:57.6°F 2) 10/16/2017: 58.4 ° F 3) 10/23/2017: 57.5 ° F 4) 10/30/2017: 58.2 ° F 5) 11/7/2017:57.6°F 6) 11/13/2017: 58.4 ° F 7) 11/20/2017: 57 .3 ° F 8) 11/27/2017: 56.9 ° F 9) 12/4/2017:57.6°FMr. Scott Wright 3 December 20, 2018 10) 1/22/2018: 56.8 ° F 11) 2/12/2018: 56.6 ° F 12) 3/12/2018: 56.5 ° F 13) 3/26/2018: 57.2 ° F 14) 6/11/2018: 56.6 ° F The above exceedances of the FRO temperature limit constitute a violation of Subpart T, Section 63.463(e)(1 )(i). Section 63.468(h) of Subpart T requires a semiannual exceedance report for batch vapor solvent cleaning machines, as follows: ""(h) Each owner or operator of a batch vapor or in-line solvent cleaning machine shall submit an exceedance report to the Administrator semiannually except when the Administrator determines on a case-by-case basis that more frequent reporting is necessary to accurately assess the compliance status of the source or, an exceedance occurs. Once an exceedance has occurred the owner or operator shall follow a quarterly reporting format until a request to reduce reporting frequency under paragraph (i) of this section is approved. Exceedance reports shall be delivered or postmarked by the 30th day following the end of each calendar half or quarter, as appropriate. The exceedance report shall include the applicable information in paragraphs (h) (1) through (3) of this section. ""(1) Information on the actions taken to comply with §63.463 (e) and (f). This information shall include records of written or verbal orders for replacement parts, a description of the repairs made, and additional monitoring conducted to demonstrate that monitored parameters have returned to accepted levels. ""(2) If an exceedance has occurred, the reason for the exceedance and a description of the actions taken. ""(3) If no exceedances of a parameter have occurred, or a piece of equipment has not been inoperative, out of control, repaired, or adjusted, such information shall be stated in the report."" DCP has not been submitting semiannual exceedance reports regarding the batch vapor degreaser, which constitutes a violation of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T, Section 63.468(h). Pursuant to the exceedances of the FRD temperature, please submit a report identifying the reason for the exceedances, and a description of actions taken. These reports should be submitted quarterly, now that exceedances have occurred. Please note that the exceedance reports are required even in time periods when no exceedances have occurred. The absence of any exceedances should be noted, as appropriate.Mr. Scott Wright 4 December 20, 2018 Additionally, DCP's chrome plating tanks 5, 7, and 15 are subject to the federal National Emission Standards for Chromium Emissions from Hard and Decorative Chromium Electroplating and Chromium Anodizing Tanks. These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart N. Section 63.342(c)(1 )(iii) requires that for open surface hard chromium electroplating tanks, each owner or operator of an existing, new, or reconstructed affected source shall control chromium emissions discharged to the atmosphere from the affected source by: ""(iii) If a chemical fume suppressant containing a wetting agent is used, not allowing the surface tension of the electroplating or anodizing bath contained within the affected tank to exceed 40 dynes/centimeter (dynes/cm) (2.8 x 10-3 pound-force per foot (lbf/ft)), as measured by a stalagmometer, or 33 dynes/cm (2.3 x 10-3 lbf/ft), as measured by a tensiometer at any time during tank operation .... "" Subsequent to the August 29, 2018, inspection by AQD, DCP provided requested copies of surface tension monitoring forms for August 2018, for hard chrome plating tanks 5, 7, and 15. The Chrome NESHAP - Fume Suppressant-Tensiometer Daily Process Operations Record for Tank 5 shows values above the NESHAP limit of 33 dynes/cm on August 1, 3, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15, 17, 20, 24, 27, 29, and 31. The Chrome NESHAP - Fume Suppressant - Tensiometer Daily Process Operations Record for Tank 7 shows values above the NESHAP limit on August 1, 3, 6, 8, 10, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 27, and 31. The Chrome NESHAP - Fume Suppressant-Tensiometer Daily Process Operations Record for Tank 15 shows values above the NESHAP limit on August 1 , 3, and 6. The above exceedances of the 33 dynes/cm limit, as measured by a tensiometer, recorded in August 2018 for chrome plating tanks 5, 7, and 15, constitute a violation of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart N, Section 63.342(c)(1)(iii). Section 63.347(h)(2)(i) of Subpart N contains reporting requirements for area sources which have exceedances, as follows: ""(2) Reports of exceedances. (i) If either of the following conditions is met, semiannual reports shall be prepared and submitted to the Administrator: ""(A) The total duration of excess emissions (as indicated by the monitoring data collected by the owner or operator of the affected source in accordance with §63.343(c)) is 1 percent or greater of the total operating time for the reporting period; or ""(B) The total duration of malfunctions of the add-on air pollution control device and monitoring equipment is 5 percent or greater of the total operating time."" The August 2018 surface tension records for chrome plating tanks 5, 7, and 15 are considered to be associated with excess emissions, as monitoring data for surface tension collected by the owner or operator of the affected source exceeded theMr. Scott Wright 5 December 20, 2018 regulatory threshold. Unless it can be demonstrated that the duration of excess emissions is less than 1 percent of the total time for the reporting period, such exceedances should be reported to AQD. Non-submittal of an exceedance report for the August 2018 surface tension readings is considered a violation of Section 63.347(h)(2)(i). Please be aware that Section 63.347(h)(2)(ii) of Subpart N requires: ""(ii) Once an owner or operator of an affected source reports an exceedance as defined in paragraph (h)(2)(i) of this section, ongoing compliance status reports shall be submitted semiannually until a request to reduce reporting frequency under paragraph (h)(3) of this section is approved."" Lastly, following the August 29, 2018, inspection, AQD staff reviewed the Second Quarter 2018 Roof Area Inspection Forms (RAIF), which were submitted to AQD. The forms noted that on June 5 and 25, 2018, leaks on the east roof chrome plating ductwork were identified and cleaned, but they did not identify repairs. For the June 5 leak, on duct V2, an entry for the following day stated that no leaks were found and added ""No further action needed."" For the June 25 leak, on duct V4, a note indicates that on June 26, no leak was found. No repair was identified as having been made. Paragraph 5.3(b) of the FACD states, in part: ""(b) On and after the Effective Date, Defendant shall inspect all ductwork and control equipment at the Property each day the Facility is in production to identify any release of an air contaminant to the environment that fails to be appropriately conveyed to the control equipment for control and removal. All releases must be repaired within forty-eight (48) hours of being identified. Defendant shall conduct and maintain at the Property a written record that identifies the person(s) conducting the required inspection, any release(s) identified during the inspection, the ductwork segment for each release identified, and the date any release is repaired."" On May 14, 2018, AQD sent DCP a Violation Notice (VN) identifying, in part, instances in the Third Quarter 2017 and First Quarter 2018 RAIF where leaks were identified on the chrome plating ductwork on the east plant roof, but a description of repairs to the leaks was not provided. DCP's June 4, 2018, response to the VN provided an explanation of how chromic acid liquid in a leak may dry, and the dried material may seal the leak, without being repaired. DCP indicated that if a leak is cleaned and there is no further release of liquid, that leak has essentially self-sealed. As noted in the VN and Enforcement Notice (EN) from the Water Resources Division (WRD) dated September 4, 2018, this practice is not what was agreed upon in the FACD. Paragraph 5.3(b) of the FACD requires leaks to be repaired within 48 hours of discovery. The VN and EN further state that DCP shall repair any current leaks and ensure that the chosen method of repair does not weaken the ducts.Mr. Scott Wright 6 December 20, 2018 Be advised that the AQD is reviewing the number and location of DCP ductwork leaks referenced above as well as in prior DEQ correspondence of May and September 2018, relative to application of the FAGO terms, including paragraphs 5.3(c) and 16.2.

The AQD staff advised Central on December 4 that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the structural parts paint booth process equipment. An application form is available by request or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/deqair (in the shaded box on the upper right hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. In addition, please provide a facility-wide Potential to Emit (PTE) demonstration for all pollutants at the source. Information on calculating PTE can be found at http://www/michigan.gov/deqair. Choose the ""Permits"" Tab, then ""Air Permitting Potential to Emit"" under the Air Permitting Assistance Heading. On December 4, 2018, the AQD staff observed operation of structural parts paint spray booth while back-draft dry filter system for paint overspray capture was inadequate as the filter panels were installed improperly with gaps and holes. As discussed, gaps and holes may be covered with duct/painters' tapes to prevent paint particulate laden air from bypassing filter media as air flows through a path of least resistance. This constitutes a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.

The purpose of the site visit was to determine Global Titanium's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Wayne County Installation Permit (WCIP) C-11750 at Global Titanium's 7 Mile Building. On October 26, 2018, the AQD issued a Rule 278a letter requesting the company to demonstrate permit to install exemptions for processes and equipment at the 7 Mile Building and to demonstrate that Rule 278 does not apply. A response from Global Titanium was received on November 26, 2018. As a result of the site visit on October 24, 2018, and review of Global Titanium's response dated November 26, 2018, the following violations were identified: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Metal Injection Molding R 336.1201(1) Installation of Metal Injection Molding, Investment Casting and Investment Casting (Lost Ingot Casting equipment without Wax Casting) obtaining a permit to install Ingot Casting pursuant to R 336.1201(1).

(a) Any air pollutant regulated by title I of the clean air act and its associated rules, including 40 C.F.R. §51.165 and §51.166, adopted by reference in R 336.1902. (b) Any air contaminant. During the site visit on October 24, 2018, it was noted that Global Titanium has installed equipment for the Investment Casting (Lost-Wax Casting), Metal Injection Molding, and Ingot Casting processes. On October 26, 2018, the AQD issued a letter requesting that Global Titanium provide the following information for process equipment at the 7 Mile Building. • A description of the exempt process or process equipment, including the date of installation. • The specific exemption being used by the process or process equipment. • An analysis demonstrating that Rule 278 does not apply to the process or process equipment. On November 26, 2018, the AQD received a response from Global Titanium. The response does not provide a permit exemption for the above listed processes or equipment, with the exception of welding (R 336.1285(2)(i)) and torch cutting equipment (R 336.1285(2)0)(ii)). Based on the November 26, 2018, it appears the equipment associated with the Investment Casting (Lost-Wax Casting), Metal Injection Molding, and Ingot Casting equipment are in violation of R 336.1201 as a PTI exemption has not been identified and the equipment is not permitted by WCIP C-11750. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the above listed processes and associated equipment.

The alleged fallout occurred in the early morning hours of September 23, 2018. The scope of the investigation included the operations at Edw. C. Levy Co. Plant 6 located at 13800 Mellon Street, Detroit, Michigan. The purpose of the investigation was to determine Edw. C. Levy Co. Plant 6's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451 ); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) No. MI ROP-84243-2016. During the September 23, 2018 investigation, AQD collected a sample of the fallout and sent it to a laboratory for analysis. Lab results indicate that the sample is consistent with slag dust associated with the steel manufacturing process. Edw. C. Levy Co. Plant 6 handles and processes slag associated with the steel manufacturing process (i.e. steel slag). Based on the investigation, the following violation was observed: Process Rule/Permit Comments Description Condition Violated Steel slag handling General Condition 12(b) of On September 23, 2018, and processing ROP No. MI-ROP-84243-2016 detection of fallout beyond the operations facility's property line, attributable R 336.1901 (b) to the facility, of sufficient magnitude as to constitute an unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property.

C. Levy Co. Plant 6, AQD staff has determined Edw. C. Levy Co. Plant 6 is the most likely source of the fallout incident which prompted this investigation. In the professional judgment of AQD staff, the fallout observed during this investigation was sufficient enough as to constitute a violation of General Condition 12(b) of ROP No. MI ROP-B4243-2009 and R 336.1901 (b): an ""unreasonable interference with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property."" Copies of the lab report are enclosed. Additionally, on September 20, 2018, the complainant contacted the AQD to provide a self-collected sample of material from an alleged fallout event that occurred sometime between the early morning hours of September 15, 2018 and the early morning hours of September 16, 2018. Mr. Lamb picked up the sample on September 21, 2018 and sent it to a laboratory for analysis.

(LPP), located at 395 DeMille Road, Lapeer, Michigan. The purpose of this inspection was to determine LP P's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) numbers 11-13 and 25-13; and Consent Order AQC number 27-2015.

BOX 30242 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909-7742 www.michigan.gov/deq • (517) 284-6651Mr. John Kuruda 2 November 15, 2018 For EU-CHROMEPLATE32, PTI No. 25-13, Special Condition (SC) Ill. 2 states: ""The permittee shall not operate EU-CHROMEPLATE32 unless the chemical fume suppressant containing a wetting agent is applied in quantities and at a frequency to ensure the surface tension of the tank does not exceed, at any time during operation, 40 dynes/cm (2.8x10-3 pound-force per foot) as measured by a stalagmometer or does not exceed 33 dynes/cm (2.3x10-3 pound-force per foot) as measured by a tensiometer."" The Ongoing Compliance Status Report (Report) dated July 17, 2018, indicates that on March 14, 2018, there was a dynes/cm value recorded of 34 dynes/cm. This is over the 33 dynes/cm limit in the PTI, and the current federal regulatory limit of 33 dynes/cm for a decorative chromium electroplating tank using a chromic acid bath, in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 63, Subpart N. This is therefore a violation of both PTI No. 25-13, SC EU-CHROMEPLATE32 Ill. 2, and the chromium NESHAP, Section 63.342(d)(3). It should be noted that on the first page of LPP's Report, Section 2 references the applicable emissions limit for Tank ID #32 as <35 dynes/cm. In the past, this had been the federal dynes/cm limit, but it was changed to no greater than 33 dynes/cm, on September 19, 2014. That was the implementation date set by the revised chrome NESHAP, as published in the Federal Register on September 19, 2012. Please ensure that LPP staff are familiar with the current limit, to avoid future exceedances. For EU-CHROMEPLATE 32, SC VI. 1 states: ""The permittee shall monitor the surface tension of the EU-CHROMEPLAT E32 once every four (4) hours of tank operation for the first 40 hours of tank operation. If there are no exceedances during the first 40 hours of tank operation, then surface tension measurements may be conducted once every eight (8) hours of tank operation for the next 40 hours of tank operation. If there are no exceedances during the 40 hours of tank operation when surface tension measurements are being conducted every eight (8) hours, then surface tension measurements may be conducted once every 40 hours of tank operation on an ongoing basis, until an exceedance occurs. Once an exceedance occurs as indicated through surface tension monitoring, the original monitoring schedule of once every four hours must be resumed and the subsequent decrease in frequency shall follow the schedule as laid out above. The minimum frequency of monitoring allowed is once every 40 hours of tank operation. An example of monitoring frequency is available at 40 CFR 63.343(c)(5)(ii)(C). The surface tension shall be monitored with a stalogmometer or tensiometer as specified in Method 306B of 40 CFR Subpart N."" The Report shows an exceedance of the dynes/cm limit, on March 14, 2018. However, it does not show an increase to once every four hours in the monitoring frequency for taking surface tension readings. It is my understanding that a sample taken at 3:01 AM on March 14 showed an exceedance, upon being tested, but a new measurement was not made until over twelve hours later, after a 3:54 PM sample was taken. This is aMr. John Kuruda 3 November 15, 2018 violation of both PTI No. 25-13, SC EU-CHROMEPLATE32 VI. 1, and the chromium NESHAP, Section 63.343(c)(5). The cited SC EU-CHROMEPLATE32 VI. 1 of PTI number 25-13 is also enforceable as paragraph 9.C of Consent Order, AQD number 27-2015. During the inspection, the 2-stage scrubber serving EU-CHROMEETCH was examined. A leak was identified on the ductwork leading from the chrome etch process to the scrubber. The damp, greenish residue found on the underside of the duct appeared indicative of trivalent chromium. This is a violation of PTI No. 25-13, SC EUCHROMEETCH Ill. 2, which states: ""The permittee shall not operate EU-CHROMEETCH unless the packed bed and composite mesh pad are installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner."" The cited SC EUCHROMEETCH Ill. 2 of PTI number 25-13 is also enforceable as paragraph 9. B of Consent Order AQD. No. 27-2015. The leaking ductwork is furthermore considered a violation of Rule 910 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. Additionally, the pressure drop gauge for stage 2 of the EU-CHROMEETCH scrubber was not operating, until after a plant employee had been called to address it. This constitutes a violation of PTI No. 25-13, SC EU-CHROMEETCH IV. 1, which states: ""The permittee shall equip and maintain the composite mesh pad and packed bed scrubber systems with a differential pressure monitoring device."" Lastly, during the course of the inspection, the dry scrubber control device for EUCOPPERTANKS was examined, and found to be not operating. The non-operational dry scrubber constitutes a violation of SC FG-NONCHROMEPROCESS Ill. 1, which states: ""The permittee shall not operate the emission units covered by FG-NONCHROMEPROCESS unless the corresponding control device is installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner."" It is noted that LPP personnel began to immediately make repairs to the unit, while I was on-site. Before the end of the day, I received from you, by e-mail, a copy of a work order demonstrating that repairs were complete. The documentation I received from you also included a copy of the invoice for the new fan motor, which had been installed for the dry scrubber.

This subjects the Facility to 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 63, Subpart VWVW. The Facility is required to apply and obtain a Title V permit. The Facility should have applied for the Title V permit by December 21, 2013. This process is also subject to the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Chemical Manufacturing Area Sources. These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart VWVW. During this inspection, the Facility was unable to produce accurate material throughput and emission records. This is a violation of the record keeping and emission limitations specified in Special Condition Vl.2, Vl.3, and Vl.4 of PTI No. 64-10A. The conditions of PTI No. 64-10A require emission records for all emission units apart of the flexible group to be calculated and the total throughput for NMP used each month and 12 month rolling time period. During this inspection, it was noted that the Facility had installed and commenced operation of unpermitted equipment at this Facility. The AQD staff advised the Facility on August 23, 2018, that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451.Mr. Ralph Severns Page 8 September 17, 2018 A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for EUELECTROLY TE, FGNOTCHING, FGSLITTING, FGELECTRODEMIX, and charging and aging of cells processes equipment. An application form is available by request, or at the following website: www.michigan.gov/deqair (in the shaded box on the upper right-hand side of the page). Be advised that Rule 201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Under the State of Michigan's Air Pollution Control law and the federal Clean Air Act, a Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) program has been developed and implemented in Michigan. This program requires major sources of air emissions to obtain a facility wide air use permit. This permit serves as a mechanism for consolidating and clarifying all air pollution control requirements which apply to the source. Rule 210(5) of the administrative rules promulgated under Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of Act 451, requires a stationary source that is not a major source under R 336.1211(1)(a), but is otherwise subject to the requirements of this rule under R 336.1211 (1 )(g)(x) to submit an application to the DEQ, AQD, not more than 12 months after a stationary source commences operation as a source subject to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart WWW, as defined by Rule 210(5). Based on the commencement of operation of the Facility prior to December 21, 2012, an application for an ROP should have been submitted to the AQD by December 21, 2013. To date, the AQD has not received this application. This constitutes a violation of Rule 210(1) that requires that a source not operate any emission units at a source required to obtain a ROP unless a timely and administratively complete application has been received by the DEQ. Because of the failure to submit a timely and administratively complete application in accordance with the requirements of Rule 210(5), this Facility has failed to obtain an application shield. Please submit a complete application within 60 days from the date of this letter. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violations and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by October 8, 2018 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter).

The Facility should develop this document as soon as possible and submit it to the DEQ, Kalamazoo District Office. During this inspection, it was also noted that the Facility had commenced operation of a tub washing process. During the inspection, the Facility could not provide data to prove that the tub washing process complies with the exemption requirements in R 336.1281 (2)(e). If the Facility cannot use a material in the washing process that can be proven to comply with this exemption, the process will require a permit. The AQD staff advised Mr. Stan Burland on September 7, 2018, that this is a violation of Rule 201 of the administrative rules promulgated under Act 451. A program for compliance may include a completed PTI application for the tub washing process equipment.

(Facility), located at 429 Fourth Street, Three Rivers, Michigan. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate a recent complaint that the DEQ, AQD, received on June 26, 2018, regarding fallout damage to their vehicles, located at 642 Spring Street, Three Rivers, Michigan, that was attributed to foundry operations. On March 5, 2018, the DEQ, AQD, conducted a similar fallout investigation in follow-up to several complaints first received on February 28, 2018. Based on particulate matter analysis of samples collected from various complainant vehicles and from a sample collected at the Facility from the dust discharge bin for the North Fuller baghouse associated with FGCLEANING; along with two known baghouse control issues determined during the fallout complaint investigation that coincides within the time period when the complainants noticed damage to their vehicles, the DEQ, AQD, sent a violation notice to the Facility on April 23, 2018. The Facility replaced all of the pulse jet tubing and bags in the North Fuller bag house as a result of the complaint investigation. On June 27, 2018, staff from the DEQ, AQD, notified the Facility of the most recent fallout complaint and requested Facility records, including daily pressure drop readings and visible emission observations for the North Fuller baghouse and exhaust stack, along with any other available maintenance and inspection records (black light test or other internal inspection) for June 4-22, 2018. On July 3, 2018, the Facility provided visible emission, maintenance, and inspection records for the North Fuller baghouse. The records indicate that abnormal visible emissions were noted from the baghouse exhaust stack on June 21, 2018, and the FGCLEANING process was immediately shut down. Maintenance staff conducted a black light test and two bad bags were found. The Facility then brought in a contractor, Waltz-Holst, to conduct an internal inspection. The deflector plate was determined to be functional; however, three additional broken bags were found and replaced. 7953 ADOBE ROAD• KALAMAZOO, MICHIGAN 49009-5025 www.michigan.gov/deq • (269) 567-3500Mr. Dave Bent Page 2 July 16, 2018 On July 2, 2018, staff from the DEQ, AQD, met with the complainant at their residence to further discuss their June 26, 2018, complaint call and to look at their vehicles (2016 White Chevrolet Trax and 2011 Black Chevrolet Silverado) for potential damage to the paint finish, trim, and windows. Per the complainant, damage was first observed on June 14, 2018. After a June 18, 2018, inspection by the insurance company, the complainant stated that they believed additional damage (orange/rust spotting) had occurred. The complainant stated that their vehicles had similar finish damage back in February 2018, and that their insurance company paid to repair the SUV.

These incinerators are designated as EUINC07, EUINC08, EUINC09, EUINC10, EUINC11, EUINC12, EUINC13 and EUINC14 in the WRRF's Renewable Operating Permit (No. MI-ROP-B2103-2014d). The emissions testing is required at Special Condition (SC) V.1 of the FGAQCI flexible group, and SC V.3 of the FG4M-INCIN flexible group within the Renewable Operating Permit (ROP). SC V.3 further requires, in accordance with 40 CFR 60.5205(a), that continuous compliance with the emission limits set forth in SCs 1.1 through 1.10 in FG4M-INCIN can be demonstrated with annual compliance emissions testing. The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Air Quality Division (AQD) is providing notice of the following violation associated with the above referenced compliance emissions testing: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated Sewage sludge incinerator MI-ROP-B2103-2014d, A compliance emissions (SSI) units 7 and 9-14 FG4M-INCIN, SC V.3; test was not performed within 11-13 months of 40 CFR 60.5205(a) the last compliance emissions test for SSI units 7 and 9-14. Special Condition V.3 in the FG4M-INCIN flexible group in MI-ROP-B2103-2014d requires, in part, that ""If the permittee elects to choose the option of performance testing to demonstrate continuous compliance with the emission limits for the pollutants previously listed, performance tests shall be conducted on an annual basis for each pollutant (between 11 and 13 calendar months following the previous performance test), except as provided in 40 CFR 60.5205(a)(3) and (e)."" The pollutants previously listed in CADILLAC PLACE• 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD• SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 www.michigan.gov/deq • (313) 456-4700Mr. Majid Khan Page2 July 10, 2018 SC V.3 are particulate matter, hydrogen chloride, carbon monoxide, dioxins/furans, mercury, nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide, cadmium and lead. For SSI units 11-14, compliance emissions testing that was conducted from May 15-18, 2017 (SSI units 11 and 12) and from May 22-25, 2017 (SSI units 13 and 14) served as the initial compliance test required in SC V.1 in FG4M-INCIN, as well as by 40 CFR 60.5185(a). The next compliance emissions test for SSI units 11-14, as required in SC V.3 in FG4M-INCIN, should have been conducted by June 2018 to meet the ( / ' requirement to conduct the test within 11-13 months following the previous compliance emissions test. SSI units 7, 9 and 10 were also tested in 2017; compliance emissions testing was conducted on SSI unit 7 from May 19-20, 2017, on SSI unit 9 from April 24-25, 2017, and on SSI unit 10 from April 19-22, 2017. These compliance emissions tests served as the required follow-up to the initial compliance test for these SSI units. Per the provisions put forth in 40 CFR 60.5205(a)(3), the measured emissions from the compliance emissions test for all of the pollutants that were tested, with the exception of nitrogen oxides, were below 75 percent of the applicable emission limit for both the initial and the follow-up compliance emissions tests. 40 CFR 60.5205(a)(3)(i) allows that if the compliance emissions test for a pollutant show that the measured emissions for that pollutant are at or below 75 percent of the applicable standard for that pollutant for at least two consecutive years, and if there are no changes in the operation of the affected source or air pollution control equipment that could increase emissions, then the compliance emissions test for that pollutant does not have to be performed for the next two years, and no more than 37 months after the date of the previous compliance emissions test. As such, for SSI units 7, 9 and 10, all of the pollutants except for nitrogen oxides do not need to be tested for up to 37 months after the date of the compliant 2017 compliance emissions tests. Emissions of nitrogen oxides from SSI units 7, 9 and 10 were measured in compliance with the applicable standard, but at greater than 75 percent of the applicable standard during the last compliance emissions tests. Therefore, NOx emissions from these SSI units were required to have been tested within 11-13 months of the last compliance emissions tests. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by July 31, 2018 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates that the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

This program requires major sources of air emissions to obtain a facility-wide air use permit. This permit serves as a mechanism for consolidating and clarifying all air pollution control requirements that apply to the source. Rule 210(4) of Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451), requires major sources submit an application to the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Air Quality Division (AQD), not more than 12 months after a stationary source commences operation as a major source, as defined by Rule 211 ( 1) ( a) of Act 451. Based on the issuance of Permit to Install (PTI) No. 416-93C and PTI No. 208-898 for Perrigo, located at 515 Eastern Avenue, Allegan, Michigan, an application for an ROP should have been submitted to the AQD by December 15, 2009. To date, the AQD has not received this application. This constitutes a violation of Rule 210(1) of Act 451, which requires that a source not operate any emission units at a source required to obtain an ROP unless a timely and administratively complete application has been received by the DEQ. As a result of the failure to submit a timely and administratively complete application in accordance with the requirements of Rule 210(4 ) of Act 451, Perrigo has failed to obtain an application shield. Please submit a complete application within 60 days from the date of this letter.

As part of the review of the letter, the AQD evaluated UM-D's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and Permit to Install 22- 04. As a result of the review, the following violation was identified: Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated FGFACILITY R 336.1201(1) The facility commenced construction of one temporary boiler and three permanent boilers at the Engineering Laboratories Building (ELB) without obtaining a permit to install. According to the May 14, 2018, letter, the ELB renovation project includes the construction of one ""temporary"" natural gas fired boiler with a design heat input capacity of 27,883,000 BTU/hr and three new identical boilers that will fire natural gas with distillate oil as a backup fuel. When firing natural gas, the heat input for each boiler will be 23,898,000 BTU/hr and 19,800,000 BTU/hr heat input when firing distillate oil. The letter also states that construction was commenced on May 8, 2018. A demonstration that Rule 336.1278 does not apply and that the equipment meets one of the permit to install (PTI) exemptions contained in Rule 336.1280 through 1291 has not been provided. To apply PTI exemptions, a R 336.1278a test must be conducted.

(1) To be eligible for a specific exemption listed in R 336.1280 to R 336.1291, any owner or operator of an exempt process or exempt process equipment must be able to provide information demonstrating the applicability of the exemption. The demonstration may include the following information: (a) A description of the exempt process or process equipment, including the date of installation. (b) The specific exemption being used by the process or process equipment. (c) An analysis demonstrating that R 336.1278 does not apply to the process or process equipment."" At this time, the facility has not provided an analysis demonstrating that R 336.1278 does not apply. ""R 336.1278(1) The exemptions specified in R 336.1280 to R 336.1291 do not apply to either of the following: (a) Any activity that is subject to prevention of significant deterioration of air quality regulations or new source review for major sources in nonattainment areas regulations. (b) Any activity that results in an increase in actual emissions greater than the significance levels defined in R 336.1119. For the purpose of this rule, ""activity"" means the concurrent and related installation, construction, reconstruction, relocation, or modification of any process or process equipment."" To evaluate this, UM-D must determine if the activity results in a potential to emit (PTE) greater than the significance levels defined in R 336.1119. The May 12, 2018, letter did not provide the PTE of the project. ""Significant"" is defined under R 336.1119(e) as follows: ""Significant"" means a rate of emissions for the following air contaminants which would equal or exceed any of the following: ... (ii) Oxides of nitrogen - 40 tons per year, (iii) Sulfur dioxide - 40 tons per year. As a result, there is insufficient evidence to demonstrate that R 336.1278(1) does not apply to the ELB construction activity, and therefore the analysis required under R 336.1278a(1)(c) has not been met. Consequently, any of the exemptions in R 336.1280 through 1291 (a) are ineligible for use, and the facility is in violation of R 336.1201 (1) for commencing construction of the boilers without having first obtained a Permit to Install.Ms. Carol Glick Page 3 June 21, 2018 Be advised that R 336.1201 requires that a permit be obtained prior to installation, construction, operation, reconstruction, relocation, or alteration of any process or process equipment which may be a source of an air contaminant. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by July 12, 2018 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

EU-BCPL is an automated spray coating line for coating plastic automobile parts. Their emissions are controlled by an RTO. There are two RTOs, RTO A and RTO B. Normally, one operates while the other is ready for use as a backup. These processes are subject to the federal National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Surface Coating of Plastic Parts and Products. These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart PPPP. On May 31, 2018, the AQD staff checked the area around LexaMar for odors in response to recently received citizen complaints. The AQD staff noted paint odors downwind of LexaMar, and not upwind of LexaMar. In the opinion of the AQD staff the observed odors were in themselves not sufficient to constitute a violation of AQD's rules but were much stronger than normal. Staff contacted LexaMar and was informed LexaMar was operating coating lines without using the RTO.Mr. Charlie Siska 3 June 18, 2018 LexaMar Corporation In a letter dated June 7, 2018, LexaMar personnel report that RTO B broke down May 24th. The facility's Malfunction Abatement Plan required the spare part that would have fixed RTO B to be in stock, but LexaMar staff discovered the spare part was for the wrong model of RTO and could not be used. Therefore, RTO B was out of service until repair parts could be ordered and delivered. Then, on May 27th, the remaining RTO, RTO A, shut down when the air compressors supplying air to the RTO's pneumatic controls was shut down for maintenance, and backup compressors did not engage automatically as they should have. Once it starts cooling, the RTO must continue cooling until it reaches a safe point for a restart and reheating. To meet contractual obligations, LexaMar elected to start production of parts on EU BCPL and EU-URSAMINOR before either RTO could be returned to proper operation. EU-BCPL operated without control for 51 hours and EU-URSAMINOR operated without control for 50 hours. LexaMar reported that while operating without the RTO, EU-BCPL emitted approximately 77 .84 pounds per hour of VOC on May 31 and 78.22 pounds per hour voe voe on June 1. EU-URSAMINOR emitted 40.83 pounds per hour of on May 30, 46.46 pounds per hour on May 31, and 56.61 pounds per hour on June 1. EU-BCPL and EU-URSAMINOR are both part of Flexible Group FG-PPPP. This Flexible Group includes all equipment on site subject to the federal NESHAP for Surface Coating of Plastic Parts and Products, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart PPPP. Operating FG-PPPP, including EU-BCPL and EU-URSAMINOR, without the RTO is a violation of the following: • Act 451, Rule 91 O, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law. • 40 CFR Part 63, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, Subpart PPPP, which requires that a coating line using an RTO shall not operate unless the RTO and Total Enclosure are installed and operating properly. • 40 CFR Part 63.4492 in Subpart PPPP, which requires that an RTO maintain a minimum bed temperature of 1400 degrees f. • MI-ROP-N2812-2015b, Table EU-BCPL, Condition 111.1, which prohibits operating EU-BCPL unless the RTO is installed and operating properly. • MI-ROP-N2812-2015b, Table EU-BCPL, Condition 1.1, which limits VOC emissions from EU-BCPL to 8.6 pounds per hour based on a calendar day average. • MI-ROP-N2812-2015b, Table EU-URSAMINOR, Condition 111.4, which prohibits operating EU-URSAMINOR unless the RTO is installed and operating properly.Mr. Charlie Siska 4 June 18, 2018 LexaMar Corporation • MI-ROP-N2812-2015b, Table EU-URSAMINOR, Condition 1.1, which limits VOC emissions from EU-URSAMINOR to 14.9 pounds per hour based on a calendar day average.

They indicated that for each melt there are 2 charges. The first charge goes into an empty EAF chamber (noMr. Craig Metzger 3 June 13, 2018 initial steel ""heal"" is used). Significant smoke isn't generated until the second charge with new scrap metal being added to the partially melted metal already in the EAF. It is during the second charge when the most smoke is generated. Baghouse inspection records from a previous January 24, 2018 inspection suggest that smoke is not read for at least ten minutes after charging takes place based on using a charging light located near the EAF main bag house as a cue to take readings. This suggests that opacity readings are not taken during EAF charging and not taken when the maximum amount-of smoke is being generated.

The purpose of this inspection was to determine the facility's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Permit to Install (PTI) No. 180-00C. During the post inspection meeting, AQD staff requested Mueller Brass for additional records and documents to demonstrate compliance with the above applicable requirements. On May 1, 2018, Mueller Brass submitted the additional requested information for compliance evaluation. Upon review of the submitted information, AQD staff identified the following: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Casting/Rod Mill Production • PTI No. 180-00C, While operating, no Processes FGSYSTEMB, Special pressure drop records for Condition IV.2 Baghouse System B were • Rule 336.1910 available during some days in November and December 2017.

Enclosed is a copy of the above cited rules.Mr. Donald Glover Page 3 May 15, 2018 During the April 2, 2018 inspection, AQD staff Eric Grinstern, Lauren Magirl, and Remilando Pinga requested for furnace melt records, daily baghouse check sheets, safety data sheets, records to show compliance with PTI No. 180-00C pollutant emission limits and the facility's Preventative Maintenance (PM) and Malfunction Abatement Plan (MAP). AQD staff conducted a review process on the records obtained from Mueller Brass which included Caster 3 & 4 melts (10/01/2017 through 4/01/2018) and daily A.A.F Baghouse Check Sheets (8/01/2017 through 4/02/2018). AQD staff observed the absence of pressure drop data on either some or all compartments of Baghouse System Bon 11/10/2017, 11/14/2017, and 12/04/2017; and Bag house System C for 11/10/2017 and 1/19/2018. Records indicated that the corresponding casting furnaces were operating based on the presence of daily melt data but no pressure drop data were available on the corresponding dates. The recorded pressure drops readings in A.A.F Baghouse Check Sheets were above the PTI No. 180- 00C, FGSYSTEMC, Special Condition IV.3 of 12.0 inches W.G. for 8/3, 4, 10/ 2017 and 11/12/2017, and below 4.0 inches W.G. for 8/30/2017. These pressure drops readings were non-compliant with the pressure drops requirement in PTI No. 180-00C and inconsistent with certain provisions of the PM/MAP. From the August 1, 2017 through April 2, 2018 submitted A.A.F Baghouse Check Sheets, AQD staff observed multiple dates of baghouse related PM/MAP issues, such as baghouse fires, visible emissions, contaminant leaks, absence of pressure data during melts, baghouse compartments/pressure monitoring not operating for long periods of time, etc. These are indications of improper operation of the bag house air contaminant emissions control system and non-compliant of the applicable requirements as cited above. During inspection, AQD staff also observed that the exhaust air from the Bag house System C was emitted through side ports and not ""discharged unobstructed vertically upwards to the ambient air"" as required by PTI No. 180-00C, Special Condition, FGSYSTEMC VIII. This is also non-compliant of the permit as cited above.

These standards are found in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart T. On March 28, 2018, AQD received the annual halogenated solvent consumption report required by Subpart T, and reviewed it on April 5, 2018. Section 63.468(f) of this regulation requires that the report be submitted by February 1 of each year. Submittal of the report for the 2017 operating year after February 1, 2018 constitutes a violation of Section 63.468(f). On May 7, 2018, AQD reviewed the First Quarter 2018 Roof Area Inspection Forms (RAIF). The report indicated that on January 8, 2018, there were three instances of leaks discovered, which were reported to have been cleaned on January 9, 2018. No reference was made to the leaks being repaired, however. This constitutes a violation of Paragraph 5.3(b) of the FACD, which states, in part: ""On and after the Effective Date, Defendant shall inspect all ductwork and control equipment at the Property each day the Facility is in production to identify any release of an air contaminant to the environment that fails to be appropriately conveyed to the control equipment for control and removal.

Enclosed is a copy of the above cited rule. On April 2, 2018, AQD staff Eric Grinstern, Lauren Magirl, and Remilando Pinga observed visible emissions from both Baghouse System B and C. AQD staff was informed that there was a seal leak at the compartment B5 guillotine gating system that closes off the chamber for cleaning while the VE observed in Baghouse System C may be due to the changing of the bags (1 compartment per day). AQD staff Mr. Grinstern and Mr. Pinga proceeded to enter the Casting Building while accompanied by Mueller Brass staff.

It appears that the hoods located above each furnace to capture the emissions are inadequate and Baghouse System D hoods are not adequately capturing the smokeNE inside the building thus causing fugitive emissions outdoor. The VE observed in the Casting Building and at the baghouse systems may also potentially be caused by poor maintenance or inadequate control system. This constitutes a violation of Act 451, Rule 910, which requires that an air-cleaning device shall be installed, maintained, and operated in a satisfactory manner and in accordance with the administrative rules and existing law.

The AQD staff advised WRPH on January 3, 2018, that this is a violation of Act 451, Rule 201 (R 336.1201). The generator specification sheet provided via email on February 1, 2018 indicates a diesel fuel flow rate range of 90.5 to 104.9 gallon per hour. This equates to a heat input capacity range of 12.67 MMBtu to 14.686 MMBtu (90.5 gallon per hour (or 104.9 gph) x 140,000 Btu/gallon). The Main Generator does not qualify for PTI exemption under R 336.1285(2)(9) and is in violation of R 336.1201(1). R 336.1285(2)(9): ""Permit to install does not apply to ... lnternal combustion engines that have less than 10,000,000 Btu/hour maximum heat input.""

As part of the inspection on January 3, 2018, records were requested to demonstrate compliance with Subpart 1111. Per §60.4211 (c), the owner/operator must comply by purchasing an engine certified to the emission standards in Subpart 1111. Per §60.4214(b), the owner or operator must keep records of the operation of the engine in emergency and non-emergency service that are recorded through the non-resettable hour meter, unless the engine meets the emission standard applicable to non emergency engines for the applicable model year. Records demonstrating compliance with Subpart 1111 were requested via email on January 4 and 8 and February 1, 2018. No response was received regarding Subpart 1111 requirements.

The March 9, 2018 email correspondence indicates that 11 carriers will be cleaned/exchanged over March 31 and April 1, 2018, with another 11 carriers exchanged on April 15, 2018, and the remaining carriers exchanged and cleaned by May 6, 2018. Based on this schedule, all the carriers in use at the facility will be past the 6-month cleaning due date. This is a violation of PTI 103-02C, SC Ill. 3, and Appendix A - Nuisance Minimization Plan (NMP). During the complaint investigations of March 10 and 12, 2018, moderate to strong electrodeposition coating oven odors were detected in the residential area downwind of the facility which were traced back to Tower. In the AQD staff's professional judgment, the odors observed were of sufficient intensity and frequency to constitute a violation of R336.1901 (b) and PTI 103-02C, General Condition 6. The facility is behind schedule for the listed carriers because the six-month cleaning deadline has already passed. Based on the proposed schedule, the remaining carriers will also not meet the requirements of the PTI 103-02C.

How long does it take to process a vehicle in the color 2 booth, and separately how long does it take to cure a vehicle in color 2 oven? Please explain if an interlock is activated during a panting process or curing process and the vehicle is only half finished for an extended period (20-30 plus minutes), how does this effect the outcome of the painting and curing? Does the vehicle need to be repainted? If so, what about paint overlap issues for a partially painted vehicle that gets repainted? It has been our understanding from other automobile assembly manufacturers that painting and curing of paint does finish out during control equipment malfunctions, but generally no new vehicles are introduced. Please explain how and why the FCA process is different. Is there a future test where the AQD could observe the verification of the interlock process engaged with partially painted/cured vehicles and then restarted to complete a saleable vehicle? Recorded documentation for the March 8, 2017 Color 3 oven shows difficulty maintaining temperature which created a P-65 conveyor run permissive fault. However, deviation reported information states no deviation – 3 hour average not triggered. These two statements for this event do not seem to correlate, so did the process continue to operate or did the run permissive fault stop the process? Based upon the information obtained during the inspection, there was not a way to correlate the conveyor accumulator records and FL status records to the control device malfunction/bypass damper for date and time. Please explain how the timing of these events are verified. Future requests regarding equipment downtime and conveyor accumulators will want to be verified unless deviations are reported. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by March 15 (which coincides with 21 calendar days from the date of this letter). The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.Mr. Zachary Leroux Page 3 February 22, 2018 If FCA US LLC believes the above observations or statements are inaccurate or do not constitute violations of the applicable legal requirements cited, please provide appropriate factual information to explain your position.

HEIDI GRETHER GOVERNOR DIRECTOR February 12, 2018 Mr. Tyree Minner, Plant Manager FCA US LLC- Mack Avenue Engine Plant 11570 Warren Avenue East Detroit, Michigan 48214 SRN: M4085, Wayne County Dear Mr. Minner: VIOLATION NOTICE On October 30, 2017, the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Air Quality Division (AQD), conducted an inspection of FCA US LLC (FCA), Mack Avenue Engine Plant (MAEP) located at 11570 Warren Avenue, Detroit, Michigan. As a result of the inspection a violation notice was issued on December 18, 2017 for noncompliance with the stack conditions of the hot test stands (FG-HOTTESTS). On January 10, 2018, the AQD received a permit to install (PTI) application from FCA MAEP to modify FG HOTTESTS. AQD's review of the PTI application, accompanying correspondence, and historical PTI applications resulted in an evaluation of FCA MAEP's compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); the Air Pollution Control Rules; and the conditions of Renewable Operating Permit (ROP) number MI-ROP-M4085-2015a. Subsequent to the review, the following violations have been identified. Rule/Permit Process Description Comments Condition Violated South Building R 336.1201(1) The facility is operating the south Dynamometers - EU- building dynamometers and hot test DYN0101, 102, and 105 R 336.2802(3) stands without an active permit to South Building Hot Test install. Stands (2) The facility has constructed and is operating a prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) major source, as defined at R 336.2801(cc), for carbon monoxide (CO), without an active permit to install. On July 18, 2013, PTI 261-99B was issued to FCA MAEP for the installation of three new dynamometers and eight new hot test stands. The conditions of PTI 261-99B were incorporated into ROP No. MI-ROP-M4085-2015, with effective date of June 24, 2015. CADILLAC PLACE • 3058 WEST GRAND BOULEVARD • SUITE 2-300 • DETROIT, MICHIGAN 48202-6058 www.michigan.gov/deq • (313) 4564700Mr. Tyree Minner Page 2 February 12, 2018 Prior to July 18, 2013, FCA MAEP was operating three dynamometers and two hot test stands under PTI 261-99A. According to the PTI application for 261-99B, the existing dynamometers and hot test stands permitted under PTI 261-99A were to be replaced with the new equipment identified within PTI 261-99B. As a result, PTI 261-99A was voided upon issuance of PTI 261-99B. However, recent correspondence between the AQD and FCA MAEP has determined that the equipment identified within PTI 261-99B was never installed and the dynamometers and hot test stands in operation at the facility are the equipment formerly permitted within PTI 261-99A. Records provided on November 8, 2017 as part of the facility inspection on October 30, 2017 indicates that EU-DYNO 101, 102 and 105 and the hot test stands at the south building have operated since the voiding of PTI 261-99A. Therefore, it appears the existing dynamometers and hot test stands are operating without a PTI. This is a violation of R 336.1201 (1 ). According to R 336.2801 (cc)(ii) a prevention of significant deterioration (PSD) major stationary source means ""any stationary source not listed in R 336.2801 (cc)(i) which emits, or has the potential to emit, 250 tons per year or more of a regulated new source review pollutant."" The AQD calculates the potential to emit (PTE) for carbon monoxide (CO) from the unpermitted hot test stands and dynamometers at approximately 680 tons per year. Therefore, the operation of the existing dynamometers and hot test stands represents, by itself, a major PSD stationary source; consequently, the operation of this equipment absent a PTI also represents a violation of R 336.2802(3). R 336.2802(3) - No new major stationary source or major modification to which R 336.2810 to R 336.2818(2) apply shall begin actual construction without a permit to install issued under R 336.1201 (1 )(a) that states that the major stationary source or major modification will meet those requirements.

The written response should include: the dates the violation occurred; an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; whether the violation is ongoing; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.

The purpose of these investigations is to determine if this facility is in compliance with the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act; Part 55, Air Pollution Control, and Part 115, Solid Waste Management, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended (Act 451); and the administrative rules promulgated pursuant to these parts. The most recent odor complaints DEQ received were from January 16-18. Staff of the AQD performed the investigation and observed the following air pollution and solid waste violation: Rule/Permit Process Description Condition Violated Comments Municipal solid waste R 336.1901(b), AQD staff observed landfill and a landfill gas R 299.4433(1 )(c) Level 3 landfill odor. collection and control system owned and operated by Advanced Disposal Services; and a gas to energy plant owned by Fortistar Methane Group During the investigation performed on January 25, 2018, AQD staff detected a distinct and definite objectionable landfill odor in the residential area on North Napier Road downwind of the facility. This is a Level 3 on the MDEQ-AQD Odor Scale. The observed landfill odor is a violation of Rule 901 (b). The Rule 901 (b) violation also constitutes a violation of Rule 433(1)(c) since the landfill odor generated by the facility created a nuisance odor beyond the property boundary. 301 EAST LOUIS GLICK HIGHWAY• JACKSON, MICHIGAN 49201-1556 www.michigan.gov/deq • (517) 780-7690Mr. Robert Walls 2 February 6, 2018 During the months of December 2017 and January 2018, as of January 25th, MDEQ staff has received 71 odor complaints regarding Arbor Hills Landfill. In response to complaints MDEQ staff has conducted numerous on-site inspections and complaint investigations in the immediate area. This recent observation of landfill odors in violation of Rule 901 and Rule 433(1 )(c), appears to indicate the solid waste and compost handling or management are inadequate. While the MDEQ recognizes the efforts taken to date to resolve offsite odors, the ongoing complaints and recent observed odor violation indicate more work needs to be done to minimize landfill garbage and possibly compost odors from the facility. Please initiate actions necessary to correct the cited violation and submit a written response to this Violation Notice by February 28, 2018. The written response should include: an explanation of the causes and duration of the violation; a summary of the actions that have been taken and are proposed to be taken to correct the violation and the dates by which these actions will take place; and what steps are being taken to prevent a reoccurrence.
