Comment #1:

Specific Condition 9 contained a sentence that gives the appearance that the 22 million boardfeet through SN-05 also applied to SN-01 and SN-02.

Response to Comment #1:

The 22 million board feet throughput limit in SC 9 only applies to SN-05. The second sentenceof the condition has been updated to the following:

Lumber throughput through Dry Kiln # 3 (SN-05), shall not exceed 22 million board feet perconsecutive 12-month period. The permittee shall maintain a monthly record of the lumberthroughput (in board feet) to SN-05. These records shall include the amount oflumber driedeach month and the amount of lumber dried in the previous 12 months. These records shall beupdated by the is" day of the month following the month to which the records pertain, kept onsite and made available to Department personnel upon request.

Section II: INTRODUCTION

Summary of Permit Activity

Hixson Lumber Sales, Inc. hereafter referred to as Hixson, owns and operates a lumber treatmentfacility in Plumerville, AR. The facility is located at 125 Hixson Road west of the intersection ofArkansas Highway 92 and 1-40on the frontage road. This permit incorporates a natural gasdirect fired lumber drying kiln (SN-05) and a sawmill (SN-06), which were already installed andoperations have already commenced. The total permitted emission increases include 8.8 tpy ofPM, 1.4 tpy ofPMIO, 0.4 tpy ofS02, 38.9 tpy ofVOC, 3.8 tpy erco, 3.8 tpy ofNOx, and 2.92tpy of total HAPs.

Process Description

Raw lumber is dried, treated, molded and smoothed at the facility. Two types of lumber aretreated at the facility: dry lumber and green lumber. Dry lumber is first sent to the planer mill(SN-03) for processing, and then to the finished shed before being shipped to customers. Thegreen lumber is sent to one of the two natural gas fired drying kilns (SN-Ol) and (SN-02) prior tobeing sent to the planer mill.

The planer mill consists of two planers and one molder machine. The planers are used to smooththe rough lumber with a six knife head, and the molder is used to make patterns. Particulategenerated at the planer mill is routed to a shaving bin, periodically loaded into a truck and hauledaway.

In the treatment plant, the lumber, timbers and plywood to be treated are loaded onto lumbertrams. The lumber is moved into a large horizontal treating cylinder via a small rail. Thecylinder door is sealed, and a vacuum is applied to remove most of the air from the cylinder andthe wood cells. Preservative solution is then pumped into the cylinder raised to about 150psiforcing the preservative solution into the wood.

Following the pressure release, the solution is pumped back into a storage tank for later re-use. Avacuum is drawn within the treating cylinder to remove excess solution from the wood to controldrippage following treatment. At the end of the process the cylinder door is opened and thelumber is pulled out. The area under the rail is the drip track (drip pad) area. The drip track(pad) area collects solution dripping off the lumber and returns it to the front of the cylinderwhere it is collected and pumped back into the storage tank for later use. After the treatedmaterial has set on the drip track (pad) area and the lumber has become surface dry, the productis ready for storage and / or shipment to the customer.

For the green lumber sawmill operations: green, tree length logs with bark on are brought intothe sawmill facility and processed into rough sawn lumber and wood residuals (chips, sawdustand bark together). The sawmill operation equipment includes a log cut-up / bucking sawsystem, a primary log breakdown circular saw / headrig log sawing system, a cant gang sawsystem, a side-board / flitch sawing / edging system, a green lumber trimmer and trimmed board

lumber stacking machine. A "system" includes lumber roll cases and lumber transfers that movethe cants or boards forward or transversely through the various sawmill machines. Bark on treelength logs are placed on a log transfer and conveyed to a log cut-up conveyor. The logs arepositioned at the cut-up saw and sawn (bucked) into shorter log segments for the sawmill. Thebark on log segments are transferred to the circular saw headrig system and passed through it.The headrig saw produces side-boards (flitches) and a center cant. The center cant is transferredto the cant gang saw machine where the cant is sawn into boards. The side-boards aretransferred to a board edging machine where they are edge trimmed into boards. All the boardsare transferred to the trimmer machine where they are end trimmed to finished lengths. Thefinished length lumber is transferred to a lumber sorting / stacking system where they are stackedinto "packs" for drying.

Additionally waste materials (sawdust, green wood edgings and bark together) from the sawingoperations are collected by a waste collection / conveyor system located under the sawmillmachinery and sent to a wood hog machine where they are converted into a mixture of greenwood chips, sawdust and bark. Particulate generated at the sawmill is routed (blown) to acyclone (SN-06) located atop a shaving bin / auger truck loading system and are periodicallyloaded into a truck and hauled away.

The majority of the rough sawn green lumber produced at the green lumber sawmill is dried by adirect-fired natural gas lumber dry kiln (SN-05). A very small portion may be air-dried. Thereis no additional planing or finishing of the rough sawn dried lumber at the sawmill. The driedrough sawn lumber is either stored under cover or taken to the treatment plant where it is treatedfor use as fencing material or in the construction of fence paneling products. After the treatment,the rough sawn products are ready for storage and / or shipment to the customer.

Section III: PERMIT HISTORY

Permit 1549-A was issued to the facility on June 6, 1995. This was the initial permit for thefacility.

An Administrative Amendment to Permit 1549-A was issued on February 18,2005. This permitis an administrative amendment to the first air permit for the facility, It handles removal of theCCA treatment processes and converts them to a new ammonical copper quaternary compoundwood preservative. The permit was updated to the new template, and the wood treatmentprocesses were added to the insignificant activities list.

An Administrative Amendment to Permit 1549-A was issued on March 25,2005. Thisamendment corrected the AFIN Number throughout the permit.

An Administrative Amendment to Permit 1549-A was issued on August 25, 2005. Thisamendment corrected errors in the emission rates.

Permit 1549-AR-l was issued on November 2,2007. This permitting action incorporated aproduction increase at the drying kilns which was originally approved in a letter by theDepartment on September 9, 1996. The permitted emission increases included 7.9 tpy ofVOC.The permitted emission decreases included 0.2 tpy of PM and 0.4 tpy of PM IO•
