RE: Part 70 Operating Permit – Permit Renewal

Title V Permit # V-SUIT-0045-2025.00

Red Cedar Gathering Company

Spring Creek Compressor Station

Mr. Hunderman,

The Southern Ute Indian Tribe Air Quality Division (AQD) has completed its review of Red Cedar

Gathering Company’s (Red Cedar) request to renew a Title V Permit to Operate, pursuant to the Title V

Operating Permit Program at 40 CFR Part 70, for the Spring Creek Compressor Station.

Based on the information submitted in Red Cedar’s application, the AQD hereby issues the enclosed

Title V Permit to Operate. The final permit will become effective on December 23, 2025.

A 30-day public comment period was held from August 8, 2025, to September 7, 2025. The AQD

received comments from Red Cedar during this time. No comments were received from the public,

affected states, or tribes. Following the 30-day public comment period, the AQD made the following

changes:

1. Section I.2. – The Install dates for emission units C-204 and C-205 were changed from

02/17/2009 to 07/30/2022 and 08/11/2009 to 05/24/2022.

2. Section III.2.1. – Replaced the term “12-month period” with “calendar year”. Additionally, the

AQD updated the bracketed notation to state that Red Cedar has elected to model emissions

according to alternative test method ALT-147.

3. Section III.2.2. – Added a closing period to paragraph III.2.2.4.2. Additionally, the AQD

removed paragraphs III.2.2.6.3.2.1. and III.2.2.6.3.2.2.

For a more detailed discussion of these comments and the resultant changes, please review the Response

to Comments document attached to this permit.

A 45-day Administrative Review period at EPA Region 8 was held from November 6, 2025, to

December 22, 2025. No comments were received from EPA Region 8 during this review period.

Pursuant to RAC §2-109(8), within 60 days after the final permit has been issued, the applicant, any person

who participated in the public comment process and is aggrieved by the action, and any other person who

could obtain judicial review of that action under applicable law, may appeal to the Environmental

Commission in accordance with the Southern Ute Indian Tribe/State of Colorado Environmental

Commission’s Reservation Air Code (RAC) and the Commission’s Procedural Rules. Additionally, the

regulations at RAC §2-109(7) specify that any person may petition the EPA Administrator within 60 days

after the expiration of the Administrator’s 45-day review period to make an objection that the permit

would not be in compliance with applicable requirements. Any such petition must be based only on

objections to the permit that were raised with reasonable specificity during the public comment period

unless the petitioner demonstrates that it was impracticable to raise such objections within such period, or

unless the grounds for such objections arose after such period.

If you have any questions concerning the enclosed permit, please feel free to contact me.

Response to Comments Document

Operator: Red Cedar Gathering Company

Facility: Spring Creek Compressor Station

Permit Action: Title V Operating Permit Renewal

Comments From Red Cedar Gathering Company Received on Draft Title V Operating

Permit V-SUIT-0045-2025.00

I. Permit Provision I.2.: Source Emission Points

Comment #1:

 Provision I.2. Table 1 – Emission Units

- AQD does not define "Install Date" but appears to be using the term to mean the date that

the engine with the listed serial number was installed on site and not the engine's

"commenced construction" date. If not, then the dates listed in table likely need correction. If

so, then: the “install date” for Spring Creek C-204 should be changed from 02/17/2009 to

07/30/2022 and Spring Creek C-205 should be changed from 08/11/2009 to 05/24/2022

AQD’s Response #1:

 The requested changes have been made. The AQD defines the term “Install Date” and

“Installation Date” as the date the engine with the associated serial number is placed at a

source. The install date assists the AQD with tracking initial compliance provisions, such

as initial performance testing. The AQD will update the ‘install date’ to reflect the likekind engine exchange that took place on May 24, 2022, and July 30, 2022.

II. Permit Provision III.2.1.: 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HH – National Emission Standards

for Hazardous Air Pollutants From Oil and Natural Gas Production Facilities [40 CFR

63.760 - 63.779, RAC 4-103]

Comment #2:

 Provision III.2.1.1.

- We suggest revising the phrase "within a 12-month period" to "during the calendar year"

because the former is undefined, the start and end dates of "a 12-month period" may

describe any time in history so long the dates bound a period spanning 12-months, and the

paragraph's requirements are otherwise based upon an "at least once per calendar year"

frequency. Therefore, it follows that the allowable gas samples to be used for emissions

modeling should be limited to those obtained during the same calendar year for which

emissions are calculated.

In addition, on September 23, 2024, Red Cedar submitted a notification of intent to use

alternative test method ALT-147. Therefore, Red Cedar requests the italicized paragraph be

corrected to clarify that ProMax has indeed elected to model emissions according to the

alternative method.

Suggested language: The permittee must obtain an extended wet gas analysis of the inlet gas

stream at least once per calendar year. The gas sample shall be taken at a point prior to where

the gas enters the dehydration system contact tower. The analysis shall include the gas

temperature and pressure at which the sample was taken. The gas analysis results and

corresponding temperature and pressure documented during collection of the gas sample

must be used to determine the actual average benzene emissions annually, in accordance with

§63.772(b)(2)(i) or (ii). If electing to make this demonstration according §63.772(b)(2)(i),

using the GRI-GLYCalcTM model, the permittee shall perform each model run using a

single gas analysis and the corresponding temperature and pressure documented during

collection of the gas sample. The permittee may elect to average the results of multiple

GRIGLYCalcTM model runs to determine in determining actual annual average benzene

emissions annually, if multiple gas samples were are collected during the calendar year

within a 12-month period.

[The permittee has elected to model emissions according to alternative test method ALT-147.

If applying the use of ProMax® (ProMax), Red Cedar should continue to The permittee shall

adhere to the requirements of Subpart HH language as written in their current permits with

the exception that using ProMax Version 5.0 or higher may be used in place of GRIGLYCalc for the specific provisions identified in the EPA approval memo until receiving

AQD approval to use a different method. The use of ProMax is an alternative EPA approved

method (ALT-147). Should Red Cedar elect to use ProMax as an alternative method, Red

Cedar may not use another method until receiving AQD approval.]

AQD’s Response #2:

 The AQD recognizes the inconsistency in both “calendar year” and “12-month period”

within the same provision. The AQD has revised the provision by replacing “12-month

period” with “calendar year”. The requested change has been made.

Red Cedar submitted a notice of intent to use ProMax in September 2024. Red Cedar

used ProMax in their October 2024 Spring Creek Title V renewal application to

determine the actual average benzene emissions and applicability to 40 CFR Part 63,

Subpart HH, triggering the requirement 1 to continue to use ProMax until Red Cedar

Standards, to Josh Ravichandran, Bryan Research & Engineering, LLC, Re: Response to request for broad source category-wide

approval for use of Bryan Research & Engineering’s process simulation software, ProMax® (ProMax) in lieu of the GRIGLYCalc™ software (GLYCalc) for modeling glycol dehydration unit emissions in demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR part

63, subpart HH, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from Oil and Gas Production Facilities (Subpart HH).

receives an additional approval to use another method. The AQD has revised the

bracketed notation as follows:

[The permittee has elected to model emissions according to alternative test method ALT147. The permittee shall adhere to the requirements of Subpart HH language as written

in their current permits with the exception that ProMax Version 5.0 or higher will be

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Reciprocating Internal Combustion

Engines [40 CFR 63.6580 - 63.6675, RAC 4-103]

Comment #3:

 Provision III.2.2.4.2.

- This paragraph is missing a closing period.

AQD’s Response #3:

 The requested change has been made.

Comment #4:

 Provision III.2.2.6.3.2.1. & III.2.2.6.3.2.2.

- This paragraph is unnecessary. Beyond describing EPA's preferred CBI submittal methods,

of which Red Cedar is aware, this paragraph does not serve a purpose in an operating

permit. Indeed, since the permittee must annually certify compliance with "all permit terms

and conditions" [I.1.2.2.1] of the permit, informational paragraphs like these could feasibly

lead to unnecessary permit deviations should the CBI process not occur in the exact manner

described.

AQD’s Response #4:

 The requested changes have been made.

Process Description:

The Spring Creek compressor station is a low to high pressure compressor station capable of

processing roughly 26 MMscf/day. The station receives two inlet gas streams. Both inlet streams

are from various well locations and producer pipelines on the east side of the reservation, with an

inlet pressure of approximately 30-80 psi. The gas first is compressed through five compressors,

driven by Caterpillar G3516LE engines to approximately 800-900 psi. It is then processed

through two TEG dehydrators set in parallel (i.e., the gas is split evenly between the two

dehydration units.) The gas comes in saturated and leaves the station at less than 7 lbs

H2O/MMscf. After dehydration, the gas goes through the outlet meter building, with a portion

being routed back to the station as fuel gas. The gas is then sent to the Val Verde State Line

meter station, where it leaves Red Cedar custody.

Section II – General Requirements

Title V Administrative Requirements

1.1. Annual Fee Payment [RAC 2-110(1)(h) and RAC 2-118]

1.1.1. An annual operating permit emission fee shall be paid to the Tribe by the

permittee.

[RAC 2-118(2)]

1.1.2. The permittee shall pay the annual permit fee each year no later than April 1st for

the preceding calendar year.

[RAC 2-118(2)]

1.1.3. Fee payments shall be remitted in the form of a money order, bank draft, certified

check, corporate check, or electronic funds transfer payable to the Southern Ute

Indian Tribe and sent or delivered by the United States Postal Service c/o

Environmental Programs Department Part 70 Program, P.O. Box 737 MS #84,

Ignacio, Colorado 81137; or by common carrier (such as UPS or FedEx) c/o

Environmental Programs Department Part 70 Program, 398 Ouray Drive, Ignacio,

Colorado 81137.

[RAC 2-118(4)(a)]

1.1.4. The permittee shall send an updated fee calculation worksheet submitted annually

by the same deadline as required for fee payment to the address listed in the

Submissions section of this permit.

[RAC 2-118]

1.1.5. The permittee shall submit the initial fee calculation work sheet using the most

recent form provided by the Tribe.

[RAC 2-118(2)(c)]

1.1.6. Basis for calculating annual fee:

1.1.6.1.

Subtotal annual fees shall be calculated by multiplying the applicable

emission fee set pursuant to RAC §2-119(1) of this code times the total

tons of actual emissions for each fee pollutant. In lieu of actual emissions,

annual fees may be calculated based on the potential to emit for each fee

pollutant. Emissions of any regulated air pollutant that already are

included in the fee calculation under a category of regulated pollutant,

such as a federally listed hazardous air pollutant that is already accounted

for as a VOC or as PM10, shall be counted only once in determining the

source’s actual emissions.

[RAC 2-119(2)(a)]

8

1.1.6.1.1.

“Actual emissions” means the actual rate of emissions in tpy of

any fee pollutant (for fee calculation) emitted from a Title V

source over the preceding calendar year or any other period

determined by the Tribe to be more representative of normal

operation and consistent with the fee schedule adopted by the Tribe

and approved by the Administrator. Actual emissions shall be

calculated using each emissions units actual operating hours,

production rates, in-place control equipment, and types of

materials processed, stored, or combusted during the preceding

calendar year or other period used for this calculation.

[RAC 1-103(2)]

1.1.6.1.2.

Actual emissions shall be computed using compliance methods

required by the permit.

[RAC 2-118(1)(b)]

1.1.6.1.3.

If actual emissions cannot be determined using the compliance

methods in the permit, the permittee shall use other federally

recognized procedures.

[RAC 2-118(1)(b)]

1.1.6.2.

The total annual fee submitted shall be the greater of the applicable

minimum fee or the sum of subtotal annual fees for all fee pollutants

emitted from the source.

[RAC 2-119(2)(b)]

1.8.4. The permittee may make the change proposed in its minor permit revision

application immediately after it files such application, provided, however, for

sources that have previously utilized this provision during the term of the permit

and, on two or more occasions have failed to file a complete application, may

thereafter make the change only after the application is deemed complete. After

the permittee makes the change and until the Tribe takes any of the actions

specified in the following subsection, the permittee must comply with both the

applicable requirements governing the change and the proposed permit terms and

conditions. During this period, the permittee need not comply with the existing

permit terms and conditions it seeks to modify. If the permittee fails to comply

with its proposed permit terms and conditions during this period, however, the

existing permit terms and conditions it seeks to modify may be enforced against

it. The filing of a minor permit revision application does not authorize

construction or modification of a source under the NSR preconstruction permit

potential to emit, without federally recognized controls) one or more hazardous

air pollutants is not subject to a relevant standard or other requirement established

under 40 CFR part 63, the permittee shall keep a record of the applicability

18

determination, for a period of five years after the determination, or until the

source changes its operations to become an affected source, whichever comes

first. Each of these records shall be made available to the Tribe upon request. The

record of the applicability determination shall include an analysis (or other

information) that demonstrates why the permittee believes the source is

unaffected (e.g., because the source is an area source).

Where the underlying applicable requirement contains a definition of

“prompt” or otherwise specifies a time frame for reporting deviations, that

definition or time frame shall govern.

2.2.4.2.

Where the underlying applicable requirement fails to address the time

frame for reporting deviations, reports of deviations will be submitted

based on the following schedule:

2.2.4.2.1.

For emissions of a hazardous air pollutant or a toxic air pollutant

(as identified in the applicable regulation) that continue for more

than an hour in excess of permit requirements, the report must be

made by email, telephone, verbal, or facsimile communication by

the close of business the next working day, upon discovery of the

occurrence, and in writing within 10 working days from the

occurrence;

2.2.4.2.2.

For emissions of any regulated air pollutant, excluding those listed

in RAC §2-110(7)(b)(i), that continue for more than 2 hours in

excess of permit requirements, the report must be made by email,

telephone, verbal, or facsimile communication by the close of

business the next working day, upon discovery of the occurrence,
