The facility's air emission sources include two storage silos, various coal transfer and screening operations, a thermal dryer, two finished coal stackers, a rail loadout station and unpaved roadways. The facility is a major stationary source as defined in Title I, Part D of the Clean Air Act Amendments due to the facility's potential to emit of Nitrogen Oxides, Sulfur Oxides and Particulate Matter less than 10 microns (PM10). The facility is therefore subject to the Title V Operating Permit requirements adopted in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter G.
