FACILITY DESCRIPTION:

Sugar beets are delivered to the factory by truck or rail, unloaded, and conveyed to storage bins. The beets are then transported by a water flume into the factory where they are sliced and passed through a diffuser. The diffusion process consists of passing the sliced beets through a hot water stream to remove the sugar. After diffusion the beet pulp is pressed to remove moisture and then transported via conveyor to gas fired pulp dryers or direct shipment for feed. The dried pulp is either pelletized or stockpiled as-dried for sale as animal feed. After diffusion, the raw juice is purified and filtered. This stage includes the addition of lime to assist in the removal of impurities. The lime is produced on site in a coke-fired vertical kiln. The coke and limestone are delivered to the factory via truck/railcar, and stockpiled for use during the processing season. After filtration and purification, the thin juice is passed through evaporators to remove water. The thick juice created from this process is crystallized and spun in centrifuges to separate the sugar crystals from the molasses. The sugar crystals are dried, screened, and stored for sale. The molasses is further processed to remove sucrose utilizing the Steffen Process, which involves mixing calcium oxide with the molasses, then filtering and washing the precipitate to remove sucrose. The remaining molasses is stored for sale as an animal feed.

Process water, and water removed from the beets, is stored and treated in on-site lagoons. The treated wastewater is used for irrigation on Spreckels' crop land. The waste lime, or precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC), that is produced in the purification and filtration stage is pumped to evaporation ponds. Once dried the PCC is either stockpiled for sale as an agricultural soil amendment, or transported to Spreckels' Mendota facility for regeneration and reuse in their filtration process.

APPLICABLE NON FEDERALLY ENFORCEABLE REQUIREMENTS

FACILITY WIDE REQUIREMENTS

RULE 3.1 General Permit Requirements

Rule Description

This rule provides an orderly procedure for the review of new sources of air pollution and of the modification and operation of existing sources through the issuance of permits. The latest revision of this rule was board approved on 2/23/94.

Compliance Status

Spreckels Sugar Company, Inc. has active permits for all emission units which require permits.

RULE 5.2 Upset/Breakdown Conditions: Emergency Variance

Rule Description

This rule specifies conditions and procedures for upsets/breakdowns and emergency variances. The latest revision of this rule was board approved on 2/23/94.

Compliance Status

Spreckels Sugar Company, Inc. is currently in compliance. However, the facility is aware of this requirement and is prepared to notify the district in the event of an emergency or breakdown situation.

APPLICABLE FEDERALLY ENFORCEABLE REQUIREMENTS

FACILITY WIDE REQUIREMENTS

RULE 3.4 New Source Review

Rule Description

The purpose of this rule is to provide for the review of new and modified stationary air pollution sources and to provide mechanisms, including emission offsets, by which authorities to construct such sources may be granted without interfering with the attainment or maintenance of ambient air quality standards. The latest revision of this rule was board approved on 12/11/96; the rule was SIP submitted on 3/26/97; Final EPA SIP approval is pending.

Compliance Status

The Spreckels Sugar facility was constructed prior to July 26, 1979 the date of the original adoption of the District's New Source Review Rule (NSR). Since then there has been a replacement of two boilers with one boiler in 1988 which caused a decrease in facility emissions and the addition of a small gas dispensing unit which did not trigger NSR requirements. Spreckels Sugar Company, Inc. has active permits for all emission units which require permits.

RULE 3.8 Federal Operating Permits

Rule Description

This Rule implements the requirements of Title V of the Federal Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CA) for permits to operate. Title V provides for the establishment of operating permit programs for sources which emit regulated air pollutants, including attainment and non-attainment pollutants.This rule was board approved on 1/26/94; the program was given EPA interim approval on June 2, 1995.

Compliance Status

Spreckels Sugar Company, Inc

has submitted a timely and complete Title V application and is currently operating under an application shield.
