Box 2261 | Jackson, MS 39225 515 East Amite St. | Jackson, MS 39201 Telephone No. (601) 961-5171 Public Notice Start Date: June 3, 2020 MDEQ Contact: Mr. Jaricus Whitlock Southeastern Timber Products, LLC – Ackerman Plant (“STP”), located at 240 PCA Road in Ackerman, MS, (662) 285-3295, has applied to the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) for the following permitting action(s): Renewal of the Title V Operating Permit (Air Ref. No. 0400-00005). The applicant’s operations fall within SIC Code 2421. An Information Relative document has been prepared that contains a discussion of the decision-making that went into the development of the permit and provides the permitting authority, the public, and other government bodies a record of the technical issues surrounding issuance of the permit. The Information Relative also addresses any changes to emissions resulting from any modification of the facility. STP is an existing industrial facility that manufactures dried dimensional lumber from harvested southern yellow pine timber via a debarker / green timber sawmill area, three (3) direct-fired lumber drying kilns, and a lumber planer mill area. STP is a major Title V source for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and total hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) given that the facility has the potential to emit over 100 tons per year (tpy) and 25 tpy respectively. In regards to Prevention to Significant Deterioration (PSD) applicability, STP is an existing major source because its VOC emissions exceed 250 tpy. However, this permitting action is to reissue the TVOP, which will not trigger a PSD review. The staff of the Permit Board has developed this draft permit based on information submitted to the Permit Board by the applicant, appropriate State and Federal agencies and other interested parties. The staff of the Permit Board is soliciting all relative information pertaining to the proposed activity, including public comment, to ensure that the final staff recommendation on the draft permit complies with all State and Federal regulations. Public review and comment on the draft permit and supporting documentation is an important element in the staff evaluation and resulting recommendation to the Permit Board. The draft permit conditions have been developed to ensure compliance with all State and Federal regulations but are subject to change based on information received as a result of public participation. Persons wishing to comment upon or object to the proposed determinations are invited to submit comments in writing to Mr. Jaricus Whitlock at http://www.mdeq.ms.gov/whitlock-jaricus/ or to the Permit Board address shown above no later than the end of the thirty (30) day public notice. All comments received by this date will be considered in the formulation of final determinations regarding the application. A public hearing will be held if the Permit Board finds a significant degree of public interest in the proposed permit. Persons wishing to request a public hearing may do so by submitting that request in writing to Mr. Jaricus Whitlock at http://www.mdeq.ms.gov/whitlock-jaricus/ or to the Permit Board address shown above. The Permit Board is limited in the scope of its analysis to environmental impact. Any comments relative to zoning or economic and social impacts are within the jurisdiction of local zoning and planning authorities and should be addressed to them. Additional details about the application, including a copy of the draft permit, are available by writing or calling the Public Records Request Officer at the above Permit Board address and telephone number or by completing the form at the following website: https://www.mdeq.ms.gov/about-mdeq/public-records-request/public-records-request-form/.
