Monjtoring/Recordkeeping [I SA NCAC 2Q .0508(1)]
The Permittee shall use a continuous opacity monitoring system (COMS) to monitor and record opacity, and a
continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) to monitor and record Sulfur Dioxide (S0 2) emissions. Continuous
emissions monitoring and recordkeeping of opacity shall be performed as described in Paragraphs 2 and 3. 1.1 through
3.1.5 of Appendix P of 40 CFR Part 51. Continuous emissions monitoring and recordkeeping of S0 2. shall be
performed as described in Paragraphs 2 and 3.1.3 through 3.1.5 of Appendix P of40 CFR Part 51. The monitoring
systems shall meet the minimum specifications described in Paragraphs 3.3 through 3.8 of Appendix P of40 CFR Part
51.
Compliance with the sulfur dioxide emission standard is determined by averaging hourly continuous emission
monitoring system values over a 24-hour block period beginning at midnight. To compute the 24-hour block average,
the average hourly values are summed, and the sum is divided by 24. A minimum of four data points, equally spaced, is
required to determine a valid hour value unless the continuous emission monitoring system is installed to meet the
provisions of 40 CFR Part 75. If a continuous emission monitoring system is installed to meet the provisions of 40 CFR
Part 75, the minimum number of data points are determined by 40 CFR Part 75.
The quarterly excess emissions (EE) reports required under Appendix P of 40 CPR Part 51 shall be used as an
indication of good operation and maintenance of the electrostatic precipitators. These sources shall be deemed to be
properly operated and maintained according to the following requirements. For opacity, the percentage of time,
calculated on a 6-minute average, in excess of 40 percent (including startups, shutdowns, and malfunctions) docs not
exceed 3.0 percent of the total operating time fOr any given calendar quarter, adjusted for monitor downtime (MD) as
calculated below. In addition, these sources shall be deemed to be properly operated and maintained if the %>MD does
not exceed 2.0 percent. S02 emissions in excess of 0.56 pounds per million Btu calculated on a 24-hour basis shall be
deemed a violation of good operation and maintenance standards.

ii. If the DAQ observes excessive fugitive non~process dust emissions from the facility beyond the property
boundaries.
The control plan shall be submitted to the Director no later than 90 days after notification. The flrcility shall be in
compliance with the plan within 30 days after the Director approves the plan.
The fugitive dust control plan shall:
1.
Identify the sources of fugitive non-process dust emissions within the facility;
11.
Describe how fugitive non-process dust will be controlled from each identifled source;
iii. Contain a schedule by which the plan will be implemented;
iv. Describe how the plan will be implemented, including training of facility personnel; and
v. Describe methods to verify compliance with the plan.
The Director shall approve the plan if he finds that:
1.
The plan contains all required elements in Paragraph (e) of this Rule;
ii. The proposed schedule contained in the plan will reduce fugitive non-process dust emissions in a timely manner
iii. The methods used to control fugitive non-process dust emissions are sufficient to prevent fugitive non-process
dust emissions from causing or contributing to a violation of the ambient air quality standards for particulates:
and
iv. The described compliance verification methods are sufficient to verify compliance with the plan.
If the Director finds that the proposed plan does not meet the requirements of this Paragraph he shall notify the
Permittee of any deficiencies in the proposed plan. The Permittee shall have 30 days after receiving written
notification tl·om the Director to correct the deficiencies.
If after a plan has been implemented, the Director finds that the plan inadequately controls fugitive non-process dust
emissions; he shall require the Permittee to correct the deficiencies in the plan. Within 90 days after receiving
written notification from the Director identifying the deficiency, the Permittee shall submit a revision to his plan to
correct the deficiencies.

If emissions testing is required by this permit or the DAQ or if the Permittee submits emissions testing to the DAQ to
demonstrate compliance, the Permittee shall perform such testing in accordance with 15A NCAC 2D .2600 and follow
the procedures outlined below:
1. The owner or operator of the source shall an-ange for air emission testing protocols to be provided to the
Director prior to air pollution testing. Testing protocols are not required to be pre-approved by the Director
prior to air pollution testing. The Director shall review air emission testing protocols for pre-approval prior to
testing if requested by the owner or operator at least 45 days before conducting the test.
2. Any person proposing to conduct an emissions test to demonstrate compliance with an applicable standard shall
notifY the Director at least 15 days before beginning the test so that the Director may at his option observe the
test.
3. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for controlling and measuring the production rates during the
period of air testing. The owner or operator of the source shall ensure that the equipment or process being
tested is operated at the production rate that best fulfills the purpose of the test The individual conducting the
emission test shaH describe the procedures used to obtain accurate process data and include in the test report
the average production rates determined during each testing period.

Page 57
sample collection unless otherwise specified in specific conditions. The owner or operator may request an
extension to submit the final test report. The Director shall approve an extension request if he finds that the
extension request is a result of actions beyond the control of the owner or operator.
a. The Director shall make the final dctennination regarding any testing procedure deviation and the validity
of the compliance test. The Director may:
(1) Allow deviations from a method specified under a rule in this Section if the owner or operator or the
source being tested demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director that the specified method is
inappropriate for the source being tested.
(2) Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative method is
necessary to secure more reliable test data.
(3) Prescribe or approve methods on an individual basis for sources or pollutants for which no test method
is specified in this Section if the methods can be demonstrated to determine compliance of permitted
emission sources or pollutants.
b. The Director may authorize the Division of Air Quality to conduct independent tests of any source subject
to a rule in this Subchapter to determine the compliance status of that source or to verify any test data
submitted relating to that source. Any test conducted by the Division of Air Quality using the appropriate
testing procedures described in Section 2D .2600 has precedence over all other tests.

Purpose of Application:
Duke Energy Carolinas is requesting a modification to the Marshall Steam Station's current air permit to
conduct a short-term trial test study to evaluate the effectiveness of liquid calcium di-bromidc (sorbcnt) on
the control of mercury emissions on Units l and 2. The study will be conducted over a two week period
where the calcium di-bromide (CaBr2) solution will be spray-applied to the coal going into the boilers at a
rate ranging from 0.25- 2.5 lbs/ton of coal. Approximately 30,000 lbs of liquid CaBr2 (53% solution by
weight) will be spray-applied onto approximately 37,500 tons of coal. Mercury emissions before and afler
the test will be monitored using a speciated mercury CEM.
This study is similar to a study on Marshall Unit 4 in the fall of 2010, where CaBr2 and powdered activated
carbon were both used to determine the effects on mercury emissions; except powdered activated carbon is
not being used for the Units I and 2 study.
Even though, as shown belmv, emissions are expected to be well below PSD significance, Duke has
requested (permanent) PSD and NSR avoidance conditions rather than a condition under 20 .0530(u) only
requiring five years of reporting to determine if the change results in a significant PSD net emissions
increase. At this time the change is for a short-term study and Duke states that if they pursue this sorbent
injection long term, they would reapply and justify a change in the permit language based on data gathered
1]
during the trial test. lf they do not pursue sorbent injection long-term, they could apply to have the PSD
avoidance condition removed.
This is a significant Title V permit modification pursuant to rule 15A NCAC 2Q .050l(c)(2). Duke must
submit a Title V application for the changes made to permit Sections 2.l.A.l6 and 2.l.A.l7 on or before 12
months after commencing operation. The permit shield described in General Condition R does not apply to
these changes.

Facility Description
Duke Power's Marshall Steam Station is an electric utility that generates electrical power. The Marshall
Steam Station is permitted for four coal/No. 2 fuel oil-tired electric utility boilers (ID Nos. ES-1, ES-2, ES3, ES-4) and various supporting equipment.

Summary of Changes to Emission Sources and Control Devices
There are no changes to emission sources or control devices.
V.
Emission Evaluation
During combustion, vapor phase mercury in the coal along with the Ca Br2 will form HgBr and 1--IgBr.~,
which will adhere to the flyash and will be captured by the ESP with additional control provided by the wet
FGD. The calcium may reform as CaS0 4 , Ca0 2 , or CaC0 3 which is a potential increase in particulate
CITIJSS!Ol1S.
Duke has furnished what they say is a conservative (overestimated) calculation of the potential increase in
PM, PM!O and PM2.S emissions from Ca compounds as shown below.
Assumptions:
Total amount ofCaBr2 during study: 30,000 lbs
Study to last I 0 days at24 In-s/day
Coal ash content II% (from 2010 average fuel analysis)
Unit I and 2 heat input: 4230 mmBtu/hr each
Coal usage (potential): 171 tons/hr each unit
Two cases were considered, one based on maximum coal usage at potential operating cond·itions and one
based on expected actual average Units I and 2 coal usage (worst case):

Maximum coal use during test period: I 0 days x 24 hrslday x 171 tonslhr x 2

Actual average Units 1 and 2 combined coal burn for 10 days in September 2010
=
82,080 tons
37,500 tons
Conservatively assume all CaBr2 is converted to CaS0,1• Then using the molecular weights:
Molecular wt. CaBr2 ~ 199.88
Molecular wt. CaS04 ~ 136.14
Each lb CaBr2 forms: CaSO,/CaBr2 ~ 136.141199.88

Current stack PM emissions are<: 0.03 lblmmBtu (post FGD PETs), therefore the increase is:
maximum:
0.03JblmmBtu x 0.00113 ~ 0.000034 lblmmBtu PM
expected (worst case):
0.031blmmBtu x 0.00248 ~ 0.000074 lblmmBtu PM
The worst-case increase in PM emissions is:
0.000074 lblmmBtu x 4230 mmBtulhr x 2 Units~ 0.63 lbslhr
0.63 lbslhr x I 0 days x 24 hrslday ~ 15!.0 lbs
PM ~ 151.0 lbs I 2000 lbslton ~ 0,0754 tons PM < 25 tpy PSO threshold
Assume PM I 0 is 90% of PM:
PM I 0 ~ 0.0754 tons PM x 0.90
Assume Pivi2.5 is 29% of PM:
PM2.5 ~ 0.0754 tons PM x 0.29
~
~
0.068 tons PMI 0 < 15 tpy PSD threshold
0.022 tons PM2.5 < 10 tpy PSD threshold
Therefore, the above PM, PMl 0 and PM2.5 emissions are below PSD significance.
Long-term Potential Emissions lf Permitted Based on 8760 hrs
For information, even though Duke is not seeking a long-tenn pennit at this time, potential emissions based
on operation at 8760 hr/yr would still result in emissions below PSD significance of:
PM:
0.63 lblhr x 8760 hrlyr ~ 5519 lblyr I 2000 lb/ton
PMIO: 2.76tpyx0.90~2.48tpyPMIO

Regulatory Evaluation
NJ23!7 to avoid a.J2J.ili<;abiliiJI of2D .0530
This condition stipulates that the amount of spray-applying calcium dibromide used in the Units I and 2
boilers (JD Nos. ES-l and ES-2) during the mercury control evaluation study shall not exceed 30,000 lbs.
This limit will prevent the particulate emissions as calculated above from being exceeded. The amount of
calcium dibromide used is to be reported after completion of the mercury control study.

;?Qjl3l7 to avoid applicabili!Y_gL2D "Q531
Since Catawba County is currently in non-attainment for PM2.5, a separate NSR condition is required for
PM2.5 emissions. The same CaBr 2 limits and reporting in the above PSD avoidance condition apply for
this condition.
2D .0536
Based on the recent particulate emission test showing emission rate below 0.03 lb/mmBtu, the PM
emissions after this modification can be estimated as follows: = 0.03 lb/mmBtu + 0.000074 lb/mmBtu
0.030074 Jb/million Btu, which is much Jess than the SIP limit of 0.20 lb/million Btu. Thcrel'orc,
compliance is expected.
Taxies
Duke has supplied the MSDS for CaBr2. A concern at the time the Unit 4 CaBr2 mercury control study \Vas
permitted was the possibility that thermal decomposition products fl·om the CaBr2 may inc!ude toxic or
corrosive fumes of hydrogen bromide and/or bromine.
Bromine is a regulated pollutant under 2Q .0700. ln addition, the spray-applied coal is burned at high
temperatures in the boiler, so the possibility of thermal decomposition of the sorbcnt, and formation and
emission of bromine was addressed.
Duke investigated this issue and offered the following:
After combustion at > 500 °C, bromine will leave the WFGD as bromide ... Thus, most qf the
bromine added to the coal as Cal3r1 is leaving a limestone-based WFGD once again us CaBr,
with its off-water. Only a ve1y small amount is emitted af the stack as HEr(< 1 mg f!Br / ds·cm),
bui not as bromine.
Halogen measurement methods (M26) are not sensitive enough to detect the levels o{
concentration you (Bill H) citedfor NC requirements. Any halogen emitted at the stack is likely
to be HBr and not Br 2, and HEr ·will be below detection limits. The practical detection limit for
bromides at the stack using !1126 is ~0.04 ppm. At the detection limit, it would be vety difficult to
determine what the accurate speciation may be. The NC TPER level for bromine of 0.054
lb/hr is about 0. 003 ppm for Marshall [Unit 4/ (assume 700 MWe), well below the 0. 04 ppm
detection limit for bromides via M26. In addition, two EPRI reports (not yet published) support
this statement and show bromides at the stack to be below detection limits by all practh:al
purposes. These reports have not been (~((rei ally published and are conjldential at this time.
After reviewing this issue, DAQ concluded that the formation and emission of bromine (Br 2) is not
expected and therefore air taxies do not apply.
