Inspection Narrative:
The facility was inspected under the Clean Air Act (CAA) for compliance with 40 C.F.R. Part 63, Subpart CCCCCC - National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Category: Gasoline Dispensing Facilities (NESHAP 6C). Inspection activities included observation of a fuel delivery event by the EPA inspector and a request for records required to be maintained under NESHAP 6C. The following are areas of concern identified during the inspection or records review:
For gasoline dispensing facilities with gasoline throughput greater than 100,000 gallons per month, Item 1(g) of Table 1 of NESHAP 6C applies:
Areas of Concern:
1(g) Pressure/vacuum (PV) vent valves shall be installed on the storage tank vent pipes. The pressure specifications for PV vent valves shall be: a positive pressure setting of 2.5 to 6.0 inches of water and a negative pressure setting of 6.0 to 10.0 inches of water. The total leak rate of all PV vent valves at an affected facility, including connections, shall not exceed 0.17 cubic foot per hour at a pressure of 2.0 inches of water and 0.63 cubic foot per hour at a vacuum of 4 inches of water.
To demonstrate compliance with Item 1(g) of Table 1 of NESHAP 6C, 40 CFR 63.11120(a) requires that a performance test using Test Procedure TP-201.1E is conducted initially and every three years thereafter. The facility most recently conducted a TP-201.1E performance test on June 25, 2024. The test report indicates that the tested component initially failed the negative leak rate and cracking pressure test. The component was replaced and retested the same day as the initial test and subsequently passed the performance test. The initial failing results

indicate that the facility may not have been continuously complying with Item 1(g) of Table 1 of NESHAP 6C.

Fuel Delivery Event Observation:
A fuel delivery event was observed by the EPA inspector. The inspector used a forward-looking
infrared (FLIR) camera to record optical gas imaging (OGI) videos of gasoline vapors. Any
auditory, visual, and olfactory (AVO) observations were also recorded. See Appendix A for a list of
photographs and videos recorded during the fuel delivery inspection.
