1.2 Facility Description Northern Metals, LLC (Northern Metals or the Permittee) is a metal recycling company whose wholly-owned subsidiary, American Iron & Supply Company, operates the Pacific Street Yard at 2800 Pacific Street North in Minneapolis, MN (the facility). Northern Metals operates a hammermill metal shredder at the facility (Minneapolis Shredder or shredder). The Minneapolis Shredder reduces the size of the scrap metal, removes dirt and non-metallic materials from the shredded metal, and separates ferrous and nonferrous metals. The shredder installation includes an in-feed conveyor system, the shredder itself, size separation equipment, cleaning equipment (referred to collectively as the cascade cleaning system), initial magnetic separation equipment, manual separation stations, finished product conveyor system, and the associated air pollution control system. For the purpose of the air permit, the Minneapolis Shredder installation is divided into two emission points, or emission units, the hammermill shredder (EU 001) and the cascade cleaning system (EU 002). The two units vent to a common stack (SV 001) and are each controlled by a high efficiency cyclone, venturi scrubber, and fabric filter. The shredder equipment is totally
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 2 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
enclosed in a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) -designed building. The primary pollutants emitted from the shredding process are total particulate matter (PM), particulate matter less than 10 microns (PM10), and particulate matter less than 2.5 microns (PM2.5). All three pollutants are limited in the air permit and controlled by the shredder’s pollution control equipment. The facility also has small combustion equipment onsite that qualifies as insignificant activities under Minn. R. 7007.1300 as well as fugitive particulate emission sources from paved roads and material handling. The facility holds a non-expiring State Total Facility Operating Permit. The facility has accepted limits to avoid classification as a major source with respect to the Part 70 Operating Permit Program, the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Program, and the National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) Program. Many of the permit conditions are based on an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) conducted in 1995 prior to the construction of the facility and a second EAW conducted concurrent with this permit action. See Section 1.5 “Facility History” for further explanation.

1.3 Changes to the Permit through this Permit Action This permit action is a major amendment to a State Total Facility Operating Permit to revise site-specific conditions. The permit does not authorize construction. Northern Metals has made several changes to the Pacific Street Yard since the previous permit was issued in 1998 (referred to throughout this document as the “original permit”). Those changes are described under Section 1.6 “Changes to the facility since the issuance of Permit 05300480-002”. Changes to the permit through this permit action include:
What Why 1) Modifying the PM/PM10 Limit: New limits take into account condensable particulate matter and are protective of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS)
Although the original permit contained the requirement that PM and PM10 limits include organic condensibles, the limits were not originally calculated taking into account organic condensable emissions. This permit action corrects that inconsistency. In the original permit, the MPCA added “organic condensibles” as part of the Total PM and PM10 emission limits because of regulatory activity at the federal level that occurred between the negative declaration on the need for an EIS and the resumption of work on American Iron’s permit. During that time period, EPA completed revisions to the PM10 NAAQS and the ambient air measurements that made it clear that condensable matter at ambient conditions must be included in the calculation of particulate matter. However, during the 1995 Risk Assessment and EAW process, these federal regulations had not been promulgated, and quantitative analysis and the permit limit were based only on filterable particulate matter, not filterable and condensable particulate matter. (See Table 9 for Comparison of filterable and condensable particulate emissions.)
2) Adding a PM2.5 Limit: New limit is the same as the PM/PM10 limits and is protective of the NAAQS
Although the EPA promulgated the first NAAQS standard for PM2.5 in 1997 (prior to the issuance of the facility’s permit), in the early stages of implementation of this new NAAQS, it was not common to put PM2.5 emission limits in permits. However, now it is standard practice to have PM2.5 limits in permits for facilities that also have PM and PM10 limits. It is common for the MPCA to add PM2.5 limits to permits that already have PM and/or PM10 limits if the permit is going through the major amendment or reissuance process.
3) Adding a daily shredder output limit Daily shredder output limit of 2,400 tons/day
The daily output limit was added to ensure on-going compliance with the PM/PM10/PM2.5 limits.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 4 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
What Why 4) Removing requirements that have been completed or are obsolete a) Requirement to pave roads b) Requirement to record
weight of all residue and material collected by the pollution control equipment
a) The requirement to pave roads at the facility is removed because the facility has completed all road paving per MPCA requirements.
b) The requirement to record the weight of residue and material collected by the pollution control equipment was included in the original permit because all Potential to Emit (PTE) calculations were based entirely on a mass-balance approach, and it was thought that this data could be useful in future mass balance calculations. However, this information is not needed going forward for permit calculations or compliance demonstrations because many of the PTE calculations for this permit use stack test results to obtain the data that residue weight may have been used to calculate. Additionally, the setup of the Minneapolis Shredder’s pollution control equipment makes it difficult to accurately perform this measurement.
5) Incorporating performance test frequencies: Once every 60 mos. for PM/PM10/PM2.5 and opacity Annual for mercury (until 3 consecutive yrs of compliance, then once every 36 mos.)
Performance test frequencies are incorporated into the permit based on the results of the facility’s initial performance tests and the MPCA’s guidance for establishing a testing frequency. Additional testing for metals other than mercury is not included in the permit because the initial performance tests demonstrated compliance, provided enough information to conduct the risk assessment, and compliance with the metals limits is ensured through other permit conditions. See Section 3.6 “Metal HAP Limits” for further explanation of these conditions.
6) Removing restrictions on the amount of aluminum, brass, copper, and stainless steel scrap processed in the shredder, and modifying metal emissions limits
These metal feedstocks were limited in the original permit because of assumptions made in the 1995 EAW and Risk Assessment. These assumptions were not used in the 2011 EAW and risk assessment. Removal of the restrictions does not cause the facility to exceed any risk guidelines. Metal emissions limits were modified based on new information obtained through stack testing that was not available when the limits were set through the 1995 EAW and Risk Assessment. This permit action also incorporates monitoring and recordkeeping to support the limits. See Section 3.4 “Feedstock Restrictions: Aluminum, Brass, Copper, and Stainless Steel” and Section 3.6 “Metal HAP Limits”
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 5 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
What Why 7) Removing the restriction on processing auto hulks
This restriction was incorporated into the original permit based on concerns that shredding auto hulks would allow unacceptable amounts of mercury switches into the feedstock. The combination of the facility’s mercury limit, feedstock control plan, and control equipment provides a reasonable assurance that mercury emissions will not be increased from the original permitted limit by allowing the shredding of auto hulks. See Section 3.4 “Feedstock Restrictions: Auto Hulks” and Section 3.5 “Mercury Limit”.
8) Modifying the form of the mercury limit and compliance demostration: The limit is changed from a lb/hr limit to a 12-month rolling sum lb/yr limit
The mercury emissions allowed by the permit are not increased with this permit action. With the new form of the limit the Permittee will now be required to demonstrate compliance with this limit on an on-going basis vs. once per year through a stack test (to measure lb/hr emissions), as was required in the original permit. See Section 3.5 “Mercury Limit”.
9) Incorporating an updated feedstock control plan
The Permittee was required to create a feedstock control plan in the original permit; this permit action incorporates that plan as an enforceable part of the permit. See Section 3.3 “Feedstock Control Plan”.
10) Incorporating standard Tier 3 modeling requirements
Based on the results of the facility’s PM2.5 ambient air modeling and the MPCA’s policy for determining under what circumstances remodeling should be required by the facility, the facility falls into what is termed “Tier 3”. The Tier 3 requirements for remodeling are incorporated at the Total facility level of the permit. See Section 3.2 “Ambient Air Quality Modeling”.
11) Updating standard citations and formatting
This is standard practice when processing major amendments.
12) Adding standard pollution control equipment requirements
The original permit simply referenced the monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements of the Minnesota control equipment rule. This permit lists the requirements directly in the permit rather than simply referencing the requirements because all applicable requirements should be contained in the permit.
13) Updating PTE calculations New data on process emissions obtained from the Minneapolis Shredder’s performance test was used to update the calculations supporting this permit action. See Section 3.7 “Calculations of Potential to Emit”.
14) Updated insignificant activities list
The list in the original permit was out of date.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 6 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
What Why 15) Modifying fugitive source requirements and adding requirements to manage fugitive sources through a fugitive dust control plan
The original permit did not require any monitoring to support the Minnesota Rule for Control of Fugitive Particulate Matter for FS 001 and FS 003. This permit action removes requirements that were not supported with periodic monitoring and recordkeeping and instead requires submittal of, and compliance with, a fugitive dust control plan that will ensure that the requirements of the rule are met.

1.5 Facility History In 1995, MPCA prepared an Environmental Assessment Worksheet and a Screening Level Human Health Risk Assessment for the Permittee’s subsidiary company, American Iron and Supply Company (American Iron), on a proposed metal shredder at the same facility. (American Iron was then an independent company.) After the MPCA Board’s negative declaration on the need for an EIS, American Iron applied for an air emission permit. The application proposed the following control equipment: CE001 High Efficiency Cyclone on the hammermill shredder; CE002 High Efficiency Cyclone on the Cascade Cleaning system; and CE003 Common Fabric Filter (Baghouse) following both cyclones. But before the MPCA could act on American Iron’s application, the City of Minneapolis (City) brought litigation challenging the negative declaration on the need for an EIS. After the litigation concluded in early 1998, the MPCA resumed work on American Iron’s air emission permit application. In writing the Air Permit, the MPCA listed the pollution control equipment proposed in the application and incorporated a 0.43 pounds per hour particulate emission rate as a permit condition for PM and PM10 emissions. The MPCA issued an Air Emission Permit to American Iron for installation and operation of the Minneapolis Shredder, on December 8, 1998. In the permit, the MPCA added “organic condensibles” as part of the Total PM and PM10 emission limits because of regulatory activity at the federal level that occurred between the negative declaration on the need for an EIS and the resumption of work on American Iron’s application. During that time period, EPA completed revisions to the PM10 National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and the ambient air measurements that made it clear that condensable matter at ambient conditions must be included in the calculation of particulate matter. However, during the 1995 Risk Assessment and EAW process, these federal regulations had not been promulgated, and both documents were based on filterable particulate matter, not condensable particulate matter. After the MPCA issued the Air Permit in 1998, further litigation between American Iron and the City delayed the Minneapolis Shredder installation until a settlement was agreed to in late 2002. Minor preparatory activities related to the storm water management system commenced, but an internal ownership dispute further delayed the Minneapolis Shredder installation. In early 2007, Northern Metals purchased American Iron. Construction of the Shredder Building and Minneapolis Shredder installation began in August of 2008. Soil remediation work was completed in the same year.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 8 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
The Minneapolis Shredder commenced operation on June 18, 2009. The stack testing required by the Air Permit was conducted November 30 through December 4, 2009. Because the filter bags had been changed the day before the test, and had not been conditioned to provide typical removal, a re-test for particulate matter emissions was conducted on December 22, 2009. Additional stack testing for mercury emissions was conducted on June 22, 23 and 29, 2010, in accordance with the Air Emissions Compliance Plan for the Hammermill Metal Shredder at the Pacific Street Yard in Minneapolis, Minnesota (Compliance Plan) submitted April 16, 2010. 1.6 Changes to the facility since the issuance of Permit 05300480-002 Completion of Soil Remediation Including Paving. Northern Metals completed the soil remediation activities required by the MPCA Voluntary Response Action Plan (VRAP). This included paving all unpaved portions of the Pacific Street Yard except a small area behind the North Warehouse and Metal Recycling Plant Building as specified in the VRAP. Replacement of Rail Tracks. Northern Metals replaced the internal rail system at the Pacific Street Yard with a new system at new grades and a new rail scale. This work included paving around and between the new tracks with six inches of asphalt to meet the paving requirement in the VRAP. Storm Water Management System. Northern Metals installed an underground storm water management system that directs all paved areas of the Pacific Street Yard to a storm water storage and treatment system as previously permitted by the MPCA. See American Iron and Steel Company NPDES/SDS Permit No. MN0063380 (NPDES Permit). Northern Metals replaced the two barge docks on the Mississippi River with a modern, single dock. Unlike the two old docks, all storm water from the new dock is directed to the storm water management system. Minneapolis Shredder Installation. Northern Metals constructed a LEED-designed Shredder Building and installed a Metso Texas hammermill metal shredder inside the building as it was being built. The Minneapolis Shredder installation included the in-feed conveyor system, the shredder itself, size separation equipment, cleaning equipment (referred to collectively as the cascade cleaning system), initial magnetic separation equipment, manual separation stations, finished product conveyor system, and the associated air pollution control equipment. Each exhaust stream is controlled by a high efficiency cyclone, a wet scrubber, and a fabric filtration system. New Metal Recycling Plant. The North Warehouse was modified to accommodate a new Metal Recycling Plant that further separates and recovers ferrous and non-ferrous metals from the shredding process.

New Entrance, Truck Scale, and Scale House. Northern Metals reorganized the flow of materials through the Pacific Street Yard by opening a new entrance on Pacific Street North at 30th Avenue North, installing a new truck scale at this entrance, building a new scale house to serve the new truck and rail scales, and changing the old entrance/exit at Pacific Street North and 28th Avenue North to an exit only.
2. Regulatory and/or Statutory Basis
New Source Review (NSR)
The facility has accepted limits to remain a minor source with respect to NSR regulations. The previous permit incorrectly categorized the source as a “true minor” source. Because the source relies on control equipment to limit its PTE below NSR thresholds, it is not a true minor source. In practical terms, this doesn’t affect the permit other than citing the requirement to operate control equipment (and associated control equipment parameters and monitoring) as a Title I Condition. Other than correcting the miscategorization, the changes authorized by this permit do not affect the facility’s status with respect to NSR regulations.
Part 70 Permit Program
The facility has accepted limits to remain below the Part 70 permitting thresholds. The facility was also miscategorized as a “true minor” source under Part 70 in the previous permit action. Because the source relies on control equipment to limit its PTE below Part 70 thresholds, it is not a true minor source.
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)
There are no New Source Performance Standards applicable to the operations at this facility.
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
The facility has taken limits to remain an area source under 40 CFR pt. 63, the NESHAP regulations. Thus, no major source NESHAPs apply. In addition, the Permittee has stated that no area source NESHAPs apply to the facility.
Compliance Assurance Monitoring (CAM)
CAM does not apply to the modifications allowed in this permit amendment because CAM only applies to facilities required to hold a Part 70 permit. The facility is not required to hold a Part 70 permit.
Environmental Review & Air Emissions Risk Analysis (AERA)
Although the proposed emissions increases do not trigger the need for environmental review with this permit action, the Permittee submitted a voluntary EAW and complete AERA with the permit amendment.
Minnesota State Rules
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 10 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012

3. Technical Information 3.1 Air Emissions Risk Analysis An AERA was performed for this permit action. The AERA Impact Statement and the MPCA Risk Manager’s Form are attached to the TSD. Both documents provide more information on the AERA. The risk analysis captured any potential changes in emissions due to the elimination of feedstock restrictions and changes in permit limits. The analysis found that all facility risk estimates were below facility risk guidelines, except for the urban gardener cancer risk estimates. Refined facility urban gardener cancer risk estimates were at facility risk guidelines at the potentially most impacted residentially zoned area.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 13 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
The metal feedstock restrictions were included in the original permit because of assumptions about the feedstock compositions used in the 1995 risk assessment and EAW. These feedstock restriction assumptions were not used in the 2011 EAW and AERA. The Minneapolis Shredder output limits, in combination with the shredder’s control equipment, ensure that the emission rates of the air toxics remain below the emission rates determined to be at or below risk guidelines through the AERA. In addition, it should be noted that the emission estimates used in the AERA are conservative estimates to ensure that the calculated potential risk at the facility was not under-predicted. The emission estimates used in the AERA for the proposed facility changes are either based on permit emission limits or PTE. The emissions used in the AERA are conservative estimates because:
• The annual tons per year emission rates assume that the highest potential emission rate per ton shredder output (lb/ton shredder output) is emitted for all material processed during the year (377,800 tons/yr, permit limit). This is actually a physically impossible scenario since the worst case scenarios assume 100% of a given scrap metal makes up all the shredder output, but the worst case scrap metal is different for different pollutants. Thus the annual emission rates are likely overestimates and could contribute to an overestimation of long term risks.
• When deriving potential emission rates from stack test data, the detection limit for pollutants that were not detected (such as specific PCB’s and dioxin/furan congeners) and the highest stack test run (rather than the average of the stack test runs) was used.
• Emission estimates based on Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) data used worst-case pollutant content for a given scrap metal, and for each pollutant assumed that the metal with the highest content of each pollutant constituted 100% of the metal feedstock. In reality, metal feedstocks will be made up of several types of metals, and the percentages of given pollutants in scrap metals will be in the entire range of the MSDS data (not just the highest percentage).
Considering the emission estimates for the risk driver pollutants were based on stack testing and permit limits on limit of 377,800 tons/yr shredder output, a recalculation of the risk estimates should be considered if the shredder output limit were to be increased. 3.2 Ambient Air Quality Modeling The facility conducted PM10 and PM2.5 modeling of the emissions from SV 001 for this permit action. The Air dispersion Modeling Analysis Report is attached to this TSD and provides further information on the modeling. The modeling results demonstrate compliance with the NAAQS and the MAAQS. Table 6 summarizes the results of the PM2.5 and PM10 dispersion modeling

Based on the MPCA’s tiered modeling policy, the results of the facility’s modeling, the facility falls into Tier 3 for PM2.5 and Tier 1 for PM10. The tier dictates what level of remodeling is required if the facility makes changes to any of the modeled parameters. The tier requirements are at the “Total Facility” level of the permit.

The original modeling analysis did not include fugitive emissions, but they were included in subsequent MPCA modeling. The MPCA confirmed that the addition of PM2.5 and PM10 fugitive emissions would not substantially affect the modeling. Consistent with the MPCA’s PSD and Title V Modeling Guidance, particulate emissions from insignificant activities were not modeled because emissions from each activity were less than 0.10 lb/hr. The Permittee modeled an emission rate of 4.2 lb/hr of PM10 and 4.2 lb/hr PM2.5. These emission rates are incorporated into the permit as limits. There is a large margin of compliance between the emission rate tested from SV 001 during the December 22, 2009 performance test (1.32 lb/hr) and the permit limit. The performance test was conducted at about 100 tons/hr shredder output. Even if the shredder output was tripled, and assuming that the emission rate is directly proportional to the shredder output, the short term emissions would still be below the modeled rate. The daily limit on the shredder ouput (2,400 tons/day) provides a reasonable assurance that short term shredder output will not exceed a value that jeopardizes the PM10 or PM2.5 limit. 3.3 Feedstock control plan Because emissions from the Minneapolis Shredder are highly dependent on the composition of the feedstock, the Permittee has implemented an extensive feedstock control plan. The plan is
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 15 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
an enforceable part of the permit and appears in Appendix B of the permit. At the time of permit issuance, the plan contained in the appendices of the permit is the most up to date version of the plan. It is expected that the Permittee may need to make changes in the plan based on normal changes in operational procedures. Thus, the Permittee is required to update the plan if there are any changes and submit the updated plan to the Commissioner for approval. This approach is consistent with how waste management plans are treated in permits for waste combustors. Northern Metals’ feedstock control plan is based on five key components: internal practices and training, restriction on incoming scrap materials, supplier education and certification, load inspections, and recordkeeping. Each component is described in detail in the plan. 3.4 Feedstock Restrictions Aluminum, Brass, Copper, and Stainless Steel The discussion under Section 3.1 “Air Emissions Risk Analysis” provides further justification for removing the restrictions on shredding aluminum, brass, copper, and stainless steel based on risk assessment results. These metal feedstocks were limited in the original permit because the 1995 EAW and Risk Assessment relied on the assumptions that incidental amounts of these metals were shredded. These assumptions were also essentially duplicates of emission limits that already existed in the permit (emission limits for arsenic, beryllium, and hexavalent chromium). The EAW and Risk Assessment that support this permit did not rely on those assumptions (instead they assume that any amount of any of the metal feedstocks can be shredded). Additionally, more information about the emissions from the Minneapolis Shredder was obtained through stack testing (information that was not available at the time of the 1995 EAW). Namely, for a feedstock that is 95% metallic, roughly 5% of the particulate matter emissions are metal particulate. Based on this new information, assuming the possibility of shredding even 100% of any of the previously limited feedstock metals, does not put the facility risk above any risk guidelines. The shredder output limits and the shredder’s control equipment ensure that the emission rates of these pollutants, as well as other air toxics, remain below emission rates determined to be health protective through the AERA. Auto Hulks The prohibition on shredding auto hulks was incorporated into the original permit based on concerns about mercury switches entering the feedstock. Through this permit action, a detailed feedstock control plan was incorporated as an enforceable part of the permit, which ensures that mercury switches or other devices are removed to the greatest extent possible for any material that enters the shredder.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 16 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
The facility will not accept any unprocessed vehicles. All vehicles must be processed by a certified end of life vehicle supplier or by the company’s trained employees before arriving on-site. Furthermore, the permit contains a mercury limit with associated monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting, and performance testing. The combination of these permit conditions provides a reasonable assurance that unacceptable amounts of mercury are not emitted from the shredding process. As permitted, the facility’s risk, based on potential mercury emissions is well below all risk guidelines. Used Oil Filters The facility’s original permit unnecessarily prohibited the shredding of used oil filters. The facility’s feedstock control plan addresses used oil filters. Used oil filters are listed on the “Unacceptable Materials List”. Under Minn. R. 7045.0990, used oil filters must be sent to scrap metal recyclers or burned for energy recover, unless they are disposed of as hazardous waste (used oil filters themselves may be recycled under the scrap metal exemption of part 7045.0125, subp. 4(C), but filter media must be treated as hazardous waste).
3.5 Mercury limit Through this permit action the form of the mercury limit is modified, but mercury emissions are not increased. The mercury limit in the original permit was 0.00079 lb/hr, and is converted to a 3 lb/yr limit. The conversion does not authorize an increase in mercury emissions. An annual limit is a more appropriate form for the limit, for three main reasons:
1) Risks associated with short term exposure are at least an order of magnitude below risk driver levels, so a short term limit is not needed.
2) The new form of the limit requires the Permittee to demonstrate compliance with daily records, monthly rolling sum calculations, adherence to the feedstock control plan, and periodic stack testing. The original permit only required periodic stack testing, so compliance could only be determined at a “snapshot in time” during the performance test rather than on an ongoing basis through 12-month rolling sum calculations supported by daily records.
3) A 12-month rolling sum lb/yr limit is also more appropriate because it acknowledges and accommodates the facility’s variability in feedstock without allowing an increase in mercury emissions or increasing risk to human health and the environment.
The Permittee will be required to conduct annual performance tests to establish a mercury emission factor in the units of pounds of mercury per ton of shredder output. The Permittee shall use a minimum of 3, and a maximum of 6, test runs to obtain data for the emission factor. On a monthly basis the Permittee shall calculate the 12-month rolling sum mercury emissions by applying the mercury emission factor to the monthly shredder output totals. The monthly shredder output shall be determined by summing the daily and monthly shredder output
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 17 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
records. After MPCA approval of the next year’s performance test results, the Permittee will calculate a new emission factor and begin using that factor in the 12-month rolling sum calculations. The MPCA has a reasonable assurance that the facility can comply with a 3 lb/yr limit. Using the data from the 9 performance test runs that the facility has conducted since it began operating in 2009, every possible unique combination of six runs, when converted to an emissions factor, and multiplied by the facility’s production limit, shows that the Permittee can achieve compliance.

It is expected that mercury switches in recycled automobiles and appliances will continue to decrease. Several national mercury reduction programs have been implemented since the original air permit was issued in 1998. Mercury switches have been eliminated in automobiles since model year 2003. In 2006, the US EPA instituted the National Vehicle Mercury Switch recovery Program (NVMSRP) which encourages removal of mercury switches in automobiles through 2017. Northern Metals is a participant in NVMSRP. Based on this projected decrease in switches in the feedstock, it is reasonable to allow the Permittee to conduct performance tests no less than once every three years after they have demonstrated compliance with the mercury limit for three consecutive years. This approach is consistent with how test frequencies are established for units with variable feedstock through federal regulations (e.g. NSPS for waste combustors). 3.6 Metal HAP Limits This permit action also modifies metal HAP emissions limits. These limits were modified in two ways:
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 18 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
1) The new values of the limits represents a more defendable calculation method that represents the worst-case scenario at the facility and takes into account new emissions data from the facility’s performance tests (see discussion under “Section 3.7 Calculations of Potential to Emit: Metal HAPs with Permit Limits).
2) Similar to the mercury limits, the metal HAP limits are converted from a lb/hr to a lb/yr (or ton/yr) format based on the limited hours of operation (3,778 hr/yr). As with the mercury limit, these are more appropriate forms of the limits because
a. Many of the pollutants do not have acute risk values. For those pollutants that do, the hourly risk estimates, based on hourly PTE, are below all risk driver levels, so short term limits are not needed.
b. An annual limit is enforceable on an ongoing basis. Demonstration of compliance with the annual limits is incorporated into this permit through daily and monthly monitoring of the shredder output and operation of the control equipment.
3.7 Calculations of Potential to Emit Attachment 1 to this TSD contains detailed spreadsheets and supporting information prepared by the MPCA and the Permittee. Theses spreadsheets document the calculations and assumptions used in determining the PTE for the facility. PM, PM10, and PM2.5 Stack Emissions The limited and controlled PTE of EU 001 and EU 002 is expressed as the permit limit on PM/PM10/PM2.5 at the stack vent level. There are no published emission factors for particulate emissions from hammermill metal shredders. To calculate the uncontrolled filterable particulate emission rate from EU 001, the hammermill shredder was assigned a mass loading of 5.0 grains per cubic foot and an air displacement of 47,000 ft3/min was assumed (5.0 gr/dscf represents the industry standard estimate of grain loading produced by a hammermill shredder multiplied by a safety factor). The dust loading rate represents filterable particulate matter emissions only. The stack test performed on December 22, 2009, measured an actual air flow rate of 94,000 acfm from the combined stack SV001. The air flow rate is produced by two fans of equal size. One fan is for the exhaust stream from the shredder, and the other fan is for the exhaust stream for the cascade cleaning system. The air flow rate for the shredder is estimated to be 47,000 acfm for this calculation. Uncontrolled filterable PM10 is assumed to be 5% of the total uncontrolled particulate matter emission rate based on particle size distributions for a shredder used in the 1995 EAW. Uncontrolled filterable PM2.5 is assumed to be the same as uncontrolled filterable PM10.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 19 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
To calculate the pound per hour uncontrolled filterable particulate PTE from EU 002, the cascade cleaning system, a conservative waste loading rate to the cascade cleaning system determined from operating data, and a shredder output of 267 tons/hr (daily output limit divided by 9 hr/day weekend/holiday hours of operation limit) was used. To determine the ton per year uncontrolled, filterable particulate PTE, the same approach was used, but with a shredder output of 377,800 tons/yr. The uncontrolled, filterable PTE also takes into account the control equipment rule efficiencies for a high efficiency cyclone because, for the cascade cleaning system, the cyclone is considered inherent process equipment. Controlled, filterable PTE for both EU 001 and EU 002 were calculated assuming theoretical control efficiencies for control equipment used in series and control equipment efficiencies based on the control equipment rule. It is important to note that the PTE calculations described above are only used for the purposes of determining whether or not the facility is a “true minor” or “synthetic minor” source with respect to Part 70 and PSD regulations. The calculations do not reflect permit limits or actual emissions. Condensable particulate matter (gases or vapors that condense to form particulate matter after discharge to the atmosphere) is difficult to quantify from this operation and is not captured in this mass-balance approach for calculating PTE for EU 001 and EU 002. Condensable particulate is represented in the controlled and limited PTE for SV 001. Although SV 001 PTE should by calculated by the combining the PTE of EU 001 and EU 002, this approach would only yield filterable particulate PTE. For the purposes of representing both filterable and condensable particulate emissions in the PTE, the lb/hr limit on PM/PM10/PM2.5 (which takes into account condensable particulate) is converted to an annual emission rate based on the operating limit of 3,778 hrs/yr. The lb/hr limit on PM/PM10/PM2.5 is greater than the combined controlled and limited hourly PTE from EU 001 and EU 002. This is because the limit takes into account the presence of condensable particulate matter; the mass balance approach to calculated PTE from EU 001 and EU 002 only takes into account filterable particulate matter. For reference, Table 9 below shows that the tested filterable particulate matter only makes up about 25% of the total particulate matter.

PM, PM10, and PM2.5 Fugitive Emissions Fugitive PM/PM10/PM2.5 potential emissions were calculated using AP-42 equations for paved roads and aggregate handling and storage piles. Data for raw material moisture content and silt loading was not available for this type of facility, so conservative values were used based on data from iron and steel production (for material moisture content) and ethanol facilities (for silt loading). Metal HAPs Emissions (HAPs without Permit Limits) The metal HAPs that could be emitted from the shredding process, but do not have permit emission limits are: antimony, cobalt, and selenium. Permit emission limits for these pollutants are not needed because risk estimates based on the PTE of these pollutants is below risk guidelines. The limited, controlled PTE for these pollutants is calculated using a “composite MSDS” sheet that was prepared for the 1995 EAW based on the major commodities handled by scrap recyclers (see Attachment 1 for a compilation of this data). The constituents of the scrap were identified by review of analytical data gathered through research on wastes from scrap materials, MSDSs from the manufacturers of the original materials, and process and industrial hygiene references. Where a material content range was found for a given pollutant, the highest number in the range was used in the assessment. To determine worst case emissions of antimony and cobalt, it was assumed that 100% of the feedstock consisted of the scrap metal with the highest composition of each of the pollutants (e.g. the highest percentage of antimony is found in Aluminum, at 1%, and the highest percentage of cobalt is found in stainless steel, at 12%). The conservative scenario in which 100% of the metal feedstock would consist of either of these scrap metals or either of the other two scrap metals with relatively high percentages of HAP metals (brass and copper) is theoretical only for the purposes of determining that the risk from these feedstocks is below risk guidelines. If the Permittee had a large portion of any of these metals by themselves, it would be more economical to sell off the homogeneous scrap rather than send it through the shredder. The worst case shredder output was then multiplied by the product of the particulate matter permit limit (4.2 lb/hr) and a conservative estimate of the portion particulate emissions that are
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 21 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
metallic (the metallic portion is calculated from stack test data, with a safety factor of 2 applied). By multiplying by the permit limit, rather than the tested rate of 1.32 lb/hr, the calculations take into account the possibility of a higher hourly emission rate based on shredding more than 100 tons/hr. Selenium is not expected to constitute more than incidental amounts in any of the scrap metals analyzed, and therefore the PTE of this compound could not be calculated according to the same methods as antimony and cobalt. Instead, the highest stack test run was multiplied by a factor of 3.2. The scaling factor represents the ratio of the proposed particulate emission rate (4.2 lb/hr) to the actual stack test results (1.32 lb/hr). Uncontrolled PTE for these pollutants was back calculated from the controlled, limited PTE using pollution control efficiency.
Metal HAPs Emissions (HAPs with Permit Limits)
The permit contains limits for arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, lead, manganese, mercury, nickel. With the exception of hexavalent chromium and mercury, the controlled, unlimited PTE of these metals were calculated in the same manner as antimony and cobalt, as described above, but using the respective worst-case percent compositions for each pollutant. The limited and controlled PTE of all of these metal HAPs, however, is based on the permit limits. Hexavalent Chromium was calculated from chromium PTE. The chromium PTE was calculated according to the same material balance-based method. Hexavalent and total chromium were both measured in the stack test analyses. The ratio of hexavalent chromium to total chromium of 3.21% was applied to the total chromium PTE to determine the hexavalent chromium PTE. The limits for metals in the original permit were determined by multiplying the original particulate limit (0.43 lb/hr) by their assumed respective weighted average composition percentages from the composite MSDS. With this permit action, the approach was altered to take into account data obtained from performance testing that was not available at the time of the original risk assessment. The performance tests from the facility shows that only a small percentage of the particulate emissions were metallic particulate emissions. The new limits limit, also more accurately represents the possible maximum percentage of a metal HAP in given metal feedstock because rather than using the weighted average composition percentages, the calculations use the highest percentage in any of the scrap metals. Uncontrolled PTE for these pollutants was back calculated from the controlled, limited PTE using pollution control efficiency. PCB and Dioxin/Furan Emissions
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 22 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
Limited and controlled PTE of PCBs and Dioxin/Furans were calculated based on stack test results. However, not all PCBs and Dioxin/Furans were detected during the performance test. To produce a calculation of PCB and Dioxin/Furan for determining possible health effects, MPCA staff used the average instrument detection limit for the pollutants that were not detected. The performance test results were used to calculate the combined TCDD toxic equivalents of PCBs and Dioxins/Furans by summing the TCDD toxic equivalents calculated for PCBs and Dioxins/Furans. The TCDD toxic equivalents were calculated conservatively using the highest stack test run for each compound, or if the compound was not detected, the average instrument detection limit was used. The combined TCDD toxic equivalents was multiplied by a scaling factor of 1.6 . The scaling factor represents the potential 60 percent increase in processed shredder residue from shredding of processed automobiles. The Minneapolis Shredder residue is likely to contain plastics. The formation of dioxin/furan is a complex process known to occur when chlorine containing materials, like plastics, paper, etc. are heated and catalyzed by metals. This potential increase in non-metallic residue, due to lifting the auto hulk restriction and its possible affect on Dioxin/Furan/PCB emissions is addressed by applying this scaling factor to the performance test results. It should be noted that the facility tests the shredder fluff quarterly for the presence of PCBs and Dioxin/Furans and has not yet detected the pollutants in its testing to date. Additionally, the facility has stated that they do not believe that the conditions in the shredder are appropriate for the formation of PCBs and Dioxin/Furans. Insignificant Activity Emissions The unlimited, uncontrolled PTE from insignificant activities is calculated based on AP-42 emission factors for the fuel(s) used and the maximum rated capacity of the combustion equipment. The boiler, hot water heaters, evaporators, space heaters and rooftop heaters burn natural gas, so emission factors for natural gas combustion from AP-42, 5th Ed., Tables 1.4-1 – 1.4-4 were used. The evaporators evaporate the wastewater from the two venturi scrubbers. The evaporators include oil/water separators to remove any oily waste prior to evaporation. Solid products settle out and are collected in the bottom of the evaporators, removed, tested, and sent to an appropriate offsite treatment or disposal facility. The majority of the HAPs generated by the shredding process are particulate metal HAPs. These HAPs are not water soluble, and would settle out if they were in water. Thus, it is not expected that any metal HAP would be emitted from the evaporators other than that produced from the combustion of natural gas.
Technical Support Document, Permit Action Number: 05300480 - 003 Page 23 of 28 Date: 1/9/2012
Additionally, the type of mercury most likely to be present in the mercury exhaust is elemental mercury (as mercury switches are manufactured using elemental mercury). Elemental mercury is also not soluble in water and, therefore, is unlikely to be emitted when the scrubber water is evaporated; therefore, it is appropriate to evaluate only combustion pollutants when quantifying the emissions from the two evaporators. For the oil-fired heaters, PTE was calculated using worst case emissions factors for space heaters combusting waste oil from AP-42, 5th Ed., Tables 1.11-1 – 1.11-5. To calculate GHG emissions from the oil-fired heaters, emission factors for methane and nitrous oxide from fuel oil combustion were used because there are no emissions factors for these two compounds in AP-42 for waste oil combustion. It should be noted that the potential emissions from the insignificant activities did not affect the risk characterization of the facility. The MPCA confirmed that the risks from PTE from insignificant activities were below the risk driver levels even when considered together. 3.8 Periodic Monitoring
In accordance with the Clean Air Act, it is the responsibility of the owner or operator of a facility to have sufficient knowledge of the facility to certify that the facility is in compliance with all applicable requirements.
In evaluating the monitoring included in the permit, the MPCA considers the following:
• The likelihood of violating the applicable requirements; • Whether add-on controls are necessary to meet the emission limits; • The variability of emissions over time; • The type of monitoring, process, maintenance, or control equipment data already
available for the emission unit; • The technical and economic feasibility of possible periodic monitoring methods; and • The kind of monitoring found on similar units elsewhere.
The table below summarizes the periodic monitoring requirements for those emission units for which the monitoring required by the applicable requirement is nonexistent or inadequate

3.9 Insignificant Activities
Northern Metals has several operations which are classified as insignificant activities. These are listed in Appendix A to the permit.
The permit is required to include periodic monitoring for all emissions units, including insignificant activities, per EPA guidance. The insignificant activities at this facility are only subject to general applicable requirements. Using the criteria outlined earlier in this TSD, the following table documents why no additional periodic monitoring is necessary for the current insignificant activities. See Attachment 1 of this TSD for PTE information for the insignificant activities.

Nearly all surfaces are currently paved, but the facility has a small unpaved area behind the North Warehouse. The draft/proposed permit does contain a general requirement that this standard must be met. It is unlikely that any additional unpaved surfaces will be added in the future.
3.10 Permit Organization
In general, the permit meets the MPCA Delta Guidance for ordering and grouping of requirements. One area where this permit deviates slightly from Delta guidance is in the use of appendices. While appendices are fully enforceable parts of the permit, in general, any requirement that the MPCA thinks should be tracked (e.g., limits, submittals, etc.), should be in Table A or B. The main reason is that the appendices are word processing sections and are not part of the tracking system. Violation of the appendices can be enforced, but the computer system will not automatically generate the necessary enforcement notices or documents. Staff must generate these.

4. Permit Fee Assessment
Attachment 5 to this TSD contains the MPCA’s assessment of Application and Additional Points used to determine the permit application fee for this permit action as required by Minn. R. 7002.0019. The permit action includes a permit application for a major amendment received after the effective date of the rule (July 1, 2009). The permit action also includes an AERA, air dispersion modeling, and an EAW. Only the AERA is assessed additional points under Minn. R. 7002.0019 subp. 2. The EAW is not assessed additional points because it is a discretionary EAW, and the air dispersion analysis is not assessed additional points because it is part of an AERA, and the AERA additional points account for the air dispersion modeling review.
5. Conclusion
Based on the information provided by Northern Metals, the MPCA has reasonable assurance that the proposed operation of the emission facility, as described in the Air Emission Permit No. 05300480-003 and this TSD, will not cause or contribute to a violation of applicable federal regulations and Minnesota Rules.
Staff Members on Permit Team: Kelsey Suddard (permit writer/engineer) Brent Rohne (enforcement) Curt Stock (stack testing) Steve Gorg (peer review) Heather Magee-Hill (risk assessment) Melissa Sheffer (modeling) Bill Lynott (environmental review)

Filterable PM/PM10/PM2.5 Emissions CalculationsEU 001 Hammermill Shredder
Potential to Emit Calculation:The uncontrolled filterable emissions from the shredder are based on an estimated mass loading of 5.0 grainsper cubic foot and an air displacement of 47,000 cubic feet per minute. The dust loading rate is fromthe October 9, 1995 EAW for the facility. It is based on the industry standard estimate of the grainloading produced by a hammermill shredder of 0.2 gr/dscf with a a safety factor of 25 applied.The dust loading rate represents filterable particulate matter emissions only.
The stack test performed on December 22, 2009 measured an actual air flow rate of94,000 acfm from the combined stack SV001. The air flow rate is produced by two fansof equal size. One fan is for the exhaust stream from the shredder and the other fan is for the exhaust stream for the cascade cleaning system. The air flow rate for the shredder is estimated to be 47,000 acfm forthis calculation.
For filterable particulate matter only - the emission rate of PM10 is 5% of the total particulate matter emission rate (1995 EAW, Table 24.2).PM2.5 emissions are assumed to be equal to PM10 emissions.
Uncontrolled hourly emission rate:PM(filterable): 5.0 grains/cf x 47,000 cf/min x 60 min/hr x lb/7,000 grains = 2,014 lb/hr PM10/PM2.5 (filterable): 2,014 lb/hr x 0.05 = 100.71 lb/hr
( Note: the uncontrolled emission rate was 1,714 lb/hr in the 1995 EAW; however, the estimated air displacement prior to construction was only 40,000 cubic feet per minute.)
Uncontrolled, Hours of Operation-Limited tons/year:PM(filterable): 2,014 lb/hr x 3,778 hr/yr x ton/2,000 lb = 3,804 tons/yrPM10/PM2.5 (filterable): 100.71 lb/hr x 3,778 hr/yr x ton/2,000 lb = 190.24 tons/yrThe facility is limited to 3,778 hr/yr in their Air Emissions Permit.
Controlled emissions are combined with emissions from the cascade cleaning system in the combined stack SV001.
2009 Actual Emissions Calculations:Actual emissions are calculated from the actual tons of material shredded in 20092009 operating data represents a partial year because the shredder started operation in June 2009.
Uncontrolled 2009 emissions:PM(filterable): 1,137 tonsPM10/PM2.5 (filterable): 56.84 tons
Controlled emissions are combined with emissions from the cascade cleaning system in the combined stack SV001.
Filterable Uncontrolled PM/PM10/PM2.5 Emissions CalculationsEU 002 Cascade Cleaning System
Maximum ton/hr throughput*(2400 ton/day)/(9 hrs/day) 267 tons/hrManufacturer's metals output rating (rounded up)(377,800 tons/yr)/(3,778 hrs/yr) 100 tons/hr*Maximum shredder output is unknown due to the variability of materials shredded. The estimate of 267 tons/hr is used for applicability determinations only
The waste loading to the Cascade Cleaning System was based on estimated average percent of the shredder output that is waste that and maximum design capacity and manufacturer's rating(2) Waste loading estimate is conservative because part of the waste will be removed at the manual sortingstations and will not actually present a load to the pollution control system.
Potential to Emit Calculation:The uncontrolled PTE takes into account control equipment rule control efficiency high efficiency cyclones because the cyclone is considered inherent process equipment, 90% for total PM and 78% for PM10.The emission rate of filterable PM10 is 10% of the total particulate matter emission rate (Table 24.4, EAW).Filterable PM2.5 emissions are assumed to be equal to PM10 emissions.
Uncontrolled hourly emission rate (based on theoretical maximum capacity):69,020 lb/hr x (100-90)/100 = 6902 lb/hr of total PM emissions form the cyclone prior to control by the wet scrubber and fabric filter systemPM10 and PM2.5 emission = 690 lb/hr prior to control by the wet scrubberand fabric filter system
Uncontrolled hourly emssion rate (based on manufacturer's metals output rating (rounded up)):25,882 lb/hr x (100 - 90)/100 = 2588 lb/hr of total PM emissions form the cyclone prior to wet scrubber and fabric filter system.PM10 and PM2.5 emissions = 259 lb/hr prior to control by the wet scrubber and fabric filter system.
Uncontrolled, hours of operation-limited tons/year (based on nominal capacity):PM(filterable): 2,588 lb/hr x 3,778 hr/yr x ton/2000 lb = 4,889 ton/yrPM10/PM2.5 (filterable): 220 lb/hr x 3,778 hr/yr x ton/2000 lb = 489 ton/yrThe facility is limited to 3,778 hr/yr in their Air Emissions Permit.
Controlled emissions are combined with emissions from the shredder in the combined stack SV001.
2009 Actual Emissions Calculations:Actual emission are calculated from the actual ton of waste processed in 20092009 operating data represents a partial year because the separation equipment was started in July 2009.
Uncontrolled 2009 emissions:PM(filterable): 1,045 tonsPM10/PM2.5 (filterable): 105 tons
Controlled emissions are combined with emissions from the shredder in the combined stack SV001.

k= lb/VMT, particle size multiplier from Table 13.2.1-1:
k, lb/VMT
PMtot 0.011
PM10 0.0022
PM2.5 0.00054
sL= 1.6 g/m^2, based on typical silt loading of paved roads at a facility using sweeping and watering to control fugitive dust
W= 28.5 tons, average truck weight at facility (40 tons loaded, 17 tons empty)
P= 110 for uncontrolled emissions, number of days with at least 0.01 inch of precipitation during the averaging period
Data from Figure 13.2.1-2 of AP-42.
N= 365 number of days in the averaging period, (365 for annual, 91 for seasonal, 30 for monthly)

Anne Jackson. 7. Assigned Section Manager: Don Smith 8. Standard Industrial Classification (SIC): 5093 Scrap and Waste Materials 9. General Summary
a. Facility and Project Description Northern Metals is the metal recycling facility formerly referred to as American Iron & Supply, Inc.
In 1995, MPCA completed a “screening level” human health and ecological risk assessment for the installation and operation of a Kondiratortm metal shredder/recycler at the Minneapolis location as part of a legislatively mandated EAW. An air emissions permit was subsequently issued allowing the shredding of auto parts but not auto hulks. The permit also specified limits on air emissions that reflected the outcome of the EAW and risk assessment analyses.
The matter generated a great deal of public interest at the time. In light of the level of public interest in the initial EAW and risk assessment, this 2011 AERA was prepared as part of a voluntary EAW.
The shredder began operating in June 2009. Northern Metals is proposing to update its 1998 air permit to reflect the pollution control equipment that is currently installed; update emission estimates and limits based on stack testing results; eliminate/reduce testing requirements for some pollutants (including metals, PCBs, dioxins/furans, asbestos, and mercury); eliminate feedstock restrictions in order to be able to shred auto hulks instead of only auto parts; and eliminate feedstock restrictions on the amount of aluminum, brass, copper and stainless steel scrap the facility can shred. The shredder is enclosed in a building and is equipped with pollution control equipment, including high efficiency cyclones, venturi scrubbers, and fabric filters. Other shredders in the state are not enclosed, have less control equipment and, with the exception of one shredder at a Part 70 steel mini-mill source, are all regulated through registration permits. The individual state permit being sought by Northern Metals is more stringent in terms of limits, reduced flexibility, monitoring and recordkeeping than a registration permit.
b. General Site Setting Description The facility is located in an industrially zoned area in the Hawthorne neighborhood of North
Minneapolis, adjacent to the Mississippi River. There are no farms or other fishable water bodies within 3km radius. There are several schools, nursing homes, and daycare facilities within 3km but none in the industrial park in which the facility is located. The closest and potentially most impacted area zoned for residential use is approximately 200m east of the facility across the Mississippi River. See Appendix A for maps of the area.

c. Emissions Summary The emission estimates were based on existing and proposed permit limits, stack testing conducted at
the facility, and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). The risk drivers (pollutants with risks greater than 10% of facility risk guidelines) for this analysis were: PCB’s, dioxins/furans, arsenic and nickel. Emission estimates for PCBs and dioxins/furans were based on stack testing results from the facility with a scalar incorporated to account for the proposed increase in plastics-containing feedstock due to the shredding of auto hulks. Of the PCB's/dioxins/furans tested, 8-TCDD-c, PCB 169, and PCB 126, did not have instrument stack testing results. For these pollutants the average instrument detection limit was used. The majority of the PCB risk estimate came from PCB 126, which was not detected. It should also be noted that several of the highest instrument stack testing results used in this analysis had notes explaining that there might have been potential blank contamination or a concentration that was “less than the stated minimum quantification limit and should be considered an estimated value”. The inclusion of the scalar, instrument detection limits and highest instrument results contributes to the likelihood that the emission estimates for PCB’s/dioxins/furans for this project are overestimates. Emissions for arsenic and nickel were based on proposed permit limits.
d. Dispersion Summary Unitized dispersion factors for the stack emissions were generated by AERMOD for the RASS’s. e. Facility Risk Summary The areas of maximum impact were found to be along the eastern property boundary of the facility
from the annual modeling and western property boundary from the hourly modeling. In addition to quantifying maximum risk estimates, refined chronic risk estimates at the potentially most impacted area zoned residential were also calculated. Facility risk estimates were below facility risk guidelines, except for the urban gardener cancer risk estimates. Maximum urban gardener cancer risk estimates were above facility risk guidelines and refined facility urban gardener cancer risk estimates were at facility risk guidelines at the potentially most impacted residentially zoned area. The urban gardener cancer risk estimates were dominated by PCBs and dioxins/furans. An additional analysis based on asbestos stack testing at the facility was conducted and cancer risk estimates from asbestos were found to be well below risk driver levels when compared to the US EPA IRIS Health Benchmark for asbestos.
f. Cumulative Inhalation Risk Summary Cumulative inhalation risks were estimated by summing maximum facility-specific risks, estimated
risks from the nearest ambient air monitors and screening level risks from a nearby facility (Hard Chrome Inc.). These summed risk estimates were at facility risk guidelines for respiratory effects and above facility risk guidelines for cancer. Inhalation cancer risk estimates from ambient air monitoring data are above facility risk guidelines throughout the state but within EPA’s excess cancer risk goal range of 1 in 1,000,000 to 1 in 10,000. The risk estimates from the incremental changes proposed were about 4% of the total summed cumulative inhalation cancer risk, 5% of chronic respiratory risk estimates and 9% of the total summed acute respiratory risk estimates. Overall risk estimates were similar to other facilities and areas in the state.

10. What is the source of the following summaries? MPCA adapted RASS’s At X:\Old_P_Fo\AQPRJ\TOXTEAM\Airstream\Projects\Northern Metals (previously Kondirator or American Iron)\Internal Documents\Support Documents\5_6_11 submittal RASS with 6_11 emissions
Note: The hazard index (HI) against which facility risks are compared for acute, sub-chronic and chronic non-cancer risks is 1. The cancer risk against which facility risks are compared is 1 E-5 (or 1 chance in 100,000). These facility risk guidelines are risk management-based. They are not discrete indicators of observed adverse effect. If a risk estimate falls below facility risk guidelines, the MPCA may conclude that the assessed health effects from the proposed action are unlikely to occur or will be negligible. A risk estimate that is higher than a guideline may trigger further consideration. Although the risk guidelines are compared to results given in one significant figure some results are summarized below in two significant figures because they were used in additional cumulative calculations.

While this is not used as an approach for assessing compliance with the standard, it provides a rough measure of how much the emitted criteria pollutant concentrations may be affected by the facility. Additional criteria pollutant modeling was conducted for PM10 and PM2.5. This information may be found in the modeling analysis report. This information is considered together with the air toxics hazard indices.

15. Mercury (Hg) Analysis: The draft permit does not contain a permit limit increase for Hg. The Northern Metals August 2011 AERA write up explains, “The most significant and closest water body is the Mississippi River, which forms the Pacific Street Yard’s eastern boundary. The SLHHRA for the original American Iron and Steel project found that potential emissions of PBTs from the facility would not impact fish tissue concentrations in the Mississippi River substantially (ICR, 1995). This was predominantly the result of estimated low facility-specific air concentrations and the huge watershed and volumetric flow of the river. In addition to the Mississippi River, a number of small lakes are located at approximately two miles [>3km] distance from the facility. The unitized dispersion results show that concentrations of pollutants, essentially all associated with particulate matter, drop off substantially after approximately 100 meters from the facility boundary.” See Appendix A figure 2 for unitized dispersion factors. MPCA staff confirmed these assertions using screening spreadsheets that the MPCA is developing to analyze potential risks from the fish ingestion pathway for lakes and rivers.
Qualitative Evaluation 16. Exposure Setting See Appendix A Figure 1 for a map of the area.
The facility is located in an industrially zoned area in North Minneapolis, adjacent to the Mississippi River. There are no farms or other fishable water bodies within a 3km radius. The closest and potentially most impacted area zoned for residential use is across the Mississippi River approximately 200m east of the facility.

17. Describe multimedia issues that may be relevant to this facility. PBT’s such as PCB’s, dioxins and furans are emitted from this facility. Thus, ingestion multimedia
issues are relevant to this facility. 18. Describe current or future exposure based on zoning and land use information. The facility is
located in an industrially zoned area in North Minneapolis, adjacent to the Mississippi River.
19. Describe the types of sensitive receptors within 1.5 kilometers from the facility. There are several schools, nursing homes, and daycare facilities within 3km, but none in the industrial park. See Appendix A Figure 1.
20. Summarize evidence that land in the area of impact will or will not be used for agriculture.
Describe agricultural setting. North Minneapolis is a densely populated urban area. There are no farms within 3 km of the project. However, residents could garden and raise chickens for eggs within 3 km. Thus an urban gardener exposure was assessed assuming the residential inhalation and consumption of produce (1.4 lbs/week), incidental soil ingestion (0.7 grams/week) plus the consumption of 7 eggs per week.
21. If PBTs are emitted, list and describe fishable water bodies within appropriate radius [3 km] from facility/property boundary. The Northern Metals August 2011 AERA write up explains, “The most significant and closest water body is the Mississippi River, which forms the Pacific Street Yard’s eastern boundary. The SLHHRA for the original American Iron and Steel project found that potential emissions of PBTs from the facility would not impact fish tissue concentrations in the Mississippi River substantially (ICR, 1995). This was predominantly the result of estimated low facility-specific air concentrations and the huge watershed and volumetric flow of the river. In addition to the Mississippi River, a number of small lakes are located at approximately two miles [>3km] distance from the facility. The unitized dispersion results show that concentrations of pollutants, essentially all associated with particulate matter, drop off substantially after approximately 100 meters from the facility boundary.” (See Appendix A figure 2). MPCA staff confirmed these assertions using screening spreadsheets that the MPCA is developing to analyze potential risks from the fish ingestion pathway for lakes and rivers.
Cumulative Analysis 22. What other permitted facilities that have air emissions are located within a 1.5 kilometer radius
of the facility? There are approximately 20 facilities with air emissions located within a 1.5 km radius of the facility. The majority of these facilities have registration permits, with the exception of G & K Services, Diamond Vogel North Inc., GAF Materials Corp., and Hard Chrome. Of these facilities, the MPCA has air toxics modeling from Hard Chrome Inc. The screening values from Hard Chrome Inc. are included below in addition to risk estimates based on air monitoring data.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 24. Missing chemicals or sources: We assume a reasonable effort was made to find chemicals and
sources. We are not claiming that we know what all of the chemicals or sources are at the facility. a. Are there any potentially missing sources from the emission list not included in the RASS
or Q/CHI workbook? No, MPCA staff confirmed that risks from emissions reported from sources listed as insignificant activities were below risk driver levels, even when considered all together.
b. Is there information suggesting additional chemicals are emitted (e.g., based on
experience at similar facilities)? No, MPCA staff searched for other sources of emissions information. MPCA staff looked at emission estimates from similar facilities in Michigan and did not find information suggesting additional chemicals are emitted.
25. List chemicals emitted but lacking inhalation health benchmarks.
Calcium compounds Iron compounds Lithium compounds Magnesium compounds Molybdenum compounds Niobium compounds Tin compounds
Titanium compounds Tungsten compounds Zirconium and its insoluble compounds Fine mineral fibers Cobalt Compounds
26. List known respiratory sensitizers emitted: Beryllium and nickel.

Page 10 of 15
27. List developmental toxicants emitted: Arsenic and mercury, neither of which exceeded
ceiling values.
28. Where is the maximum modeled concentration (risk) for acute? Chronic? Annual emission dispersion factors were highest along the eastern boundary of the facility. See Appendix A Figure 2 for a map of annual results. Unitized hourly emission dispersion factors were highest along the western boundary of the facility. As with all air dispersion modeling, the exact locations of maximum risk carry some uncertainty because the actual dispersion depends on weather conditions at the time of emission.
29. Incident Management System data on facility reports of SSM events from the last 5 years. There is one complaint in the incident management system (Incident report #166447) about fugitive emissions. No further detail is given because the complainant never followed up with the MPCA enforcement staff.
30. Internal Combustion Engines. (AERA-04 Certification for Emergency Internal
Combustion Engines) There are no emergency generators so this is not applicable.
31. Describe known community concerns as they relate to health risks associated with this facility. When initially permitted, environmental review was required as a result of legislation and community concerns.
32. Is there the possibility that emissions from diesel trucks idling on the facility property maybe equivalent or greater than 2 or more trucks idling continuously for an hour or longer on the facility property? Describe idling truck patterns. Is an idling truck prevention plan recommended? Two or more idling trucks are not expected to idle continuously for an hour or longer on the facility property. The facility is located within the City of Minneapolis, which has idling restrictions.
33. Should a risk recalculation requirement be included in the permit? Summary of rationale. Since that the emission estimates for the risk driver pollutants were based on stack testing and permit limits at a through put of 377,800 tons per year a recalculation of the risk estimates should be considered if the material through put limit were to be increased.
34. Additional Considerations: An analysis comparing modeled stack testing results for asbestos fibers and the EPA health benchmark published in IRIS found that cancer risks from asbestos were below risk driver levels.
35. These additional information topics weren’t considered applicable or noteworthy for
this facility: Additional IEUBK modeling for lead was not considered, since the RASS indicated that the modeled highest monthly concentration was not approaching the current NAAQS 3-month rolling average of 0.15 ug/m3.

Uncertainty Analysis Summary 36. How close are the emission estimates to what the facility will actually emit? What are
the factors that impact this? The annual tons per year emission rates are based on the highest tested hourly emission
rates times 3778 operating hours per year. Thus the annual emission rates could contribute to an overestimation of long term risks.
Some emission estimates are from a limited number of stack test results and thus could contribute to over or underestimating risks.
Using the detection limits and results with notes explaining that there might have been potential blank contamination or a concentration that was “less than the stated minimum quantification limit and should be considered an estimated value”, for pollutants that were not detected (such as specific PCB’s and dioxin/furan congeners) could contribute to an overestimation of risk.
As with all facilities, there may be other pollutants emitted from the facility which have not been tested. This may contribute to an underestimation of risk.
Emission estimates based on MSDS data used worst-case pollutant content for a given metal, and for each pollutant assumed that the metal with the highest content of each pollutant constituted 100% of the metal feedstock. In reality, metal feedstocks will be made up of several types of metals. This approach may contribute to an overestimate of risk.
37. How accurate is the dispersion model to the actual site dispersion? What are the
factors impacting the accuracy? In general, air dispersion modeling analyses are designed not to underestimate air
concentrations. The most refined modeling methods currently available were used to model facility emissions. As with all air dispersion modeling, the exact locations of maximum risk carry some uncertainty because the actual dispersion depends on weather conditions at the time of emission.
The air dispersion factors used in the Hard Chrome risk estimates were generic screening level dispersion factors, which are likely to be overestimates.
38. What is the impact of the toxicity values on the risk analysis? What are the factors
impacting the analysis? Toxicity values may contribute to an over or under estimate of risk, although uncertainty
factors are included in the derivation of toxicity values in order to minimize the likelihood of underestimating risk.
Using older toxicity values that were developed without consideration of early childhood exposures could contribute to underestimating risk. The MPCA incorporates toxicity values that consider early childhood exposure as they are updated by MDH, EPA and CalEPA. If a default screening level multiplier of 1.6 were to be applied to non-dioxin/furan carcinogens, none of the individual pollutants would have been above health benchmarks. Furthermore, the overall facility risk characterizations would be the same.

AERA INTERNAL FORM-02 IMPACT ANALYSIS SUMMARY
Page 12 of 15
A lack of health benchmarks for at least 12 chemicals potentially emitted could result in an under-prediction of risks.
RASS multimedia factors are not clearly over or under protective.
39. What is the impact of the exposure assumptions on the risk analysis? What are the factors impacting the analysis?
The exposure assumptions may over or under predict actual exposures (e.g., this depends on the applicability of the exposure scenario assumptions with respect to individuals actual ingestion rates of homegrown products grown at the locations of maximum impact locations). The exposure assumptions are generally chosen to over predict actual exposures. For example the cancer and chronic non-cancer inhalation risk estimates are based on the assumption of 70 years of exposure to the given ambient air concentration. 40. What is the impact of other factors on underestimating and/or overestimating risks in
the analysis? Risk estimates based on ambient monitoring data and screening results from nearby
facilities may contribute to over or under estimating the risks in this analysis. For example, in this case the NO2 based risk estimates from the suburban monitors may contribute to underestimating risks from NO2 in this urban area, while the screening risk estimates from Hard Chrome (where NO2 is the major risk driver) may contribute to over estimating risks from NO2.
The AERA assumes that pollutants with the same endpoint act additively. MDH and EPA guidance indicates that the assumption of additivity for interactions of chemicals is protective. Since pollutant interaction may result in greater (synergistic) or lesser (antagonistic) effects than the summation of the effects of each individual chemical, the exclusion of synergism/antagonism from the analysis may result in over- or underestimation of risk.
41. Staff Conclusions and Recommendations MDH Coordination: MDH was not asked to provide comments and did not provide comments. Staff team recommendations: (permit conditions, refinements, stack testing) 42. The MPCA staff recommends that the proposed project should move forward through the
environmental review process. Considering the emission estimates for the risk driver pollutants were based on stack testing and permit limits at a through put of 377,800 tons per year a recalculation of the risk estimates should be considered if the material through put limit were to be increased.
