Process Description:
The Trail Canyon Compressor Station, owned and operated by Red Cedar Gathering Company, is
located in Southwestern Colorado within the exterior boundaries of the Southern Ute Indian
Reservation. Trail Canyon is a production field facility prior to the point of custody transfer.
Natural gas product is provided to Trail Canyon from several upstream wells and compression
stations.
Current Configuration: Units C-204 and C-205 pull gas from the low-pressure pipelines at
approximately 30psi and compress the gas to approximately 350psi. The gas is then processed
through the dehy unit and discharged into Red Cedar’s mid-pressure pipeline. Under this
configuration, the station can process 10-12 Mscf/day. Units C-201, C-202, and C-206 boost 5060 MMscf/day of high-pressure gas, from various compressor facilities, from roughly 800psi to a
discharge pressure around 1,000psi. The gas is discharged to a high-pressure valve set known as
the Val Verde Valve set. The gas that is processed through units C-201 and C-202 is not dehydrated
at the Trail Canyon Compressor Station. The facility does not extract natural gas liquids from field
gas nor fractionate mixed NGL’s to natural gas products. The facility has storage vessels, but none
with the potential for flash emissions. Trail Canyon’s primary emitters consist of 5 compressor
engines and one glycol dehydration unit. The facility has several heaters, and tanks that qualify as
insignificant emission units. Trail Canyon does not engage in pigging operations.
The 5 compressor engines are 4SLB SI RICE. One of these compressor engines (C-204) is subject
to 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ regulations. Red Cedar has selected oxidation catalyst as the means
to satisfy the regulatory requirements for Carbon Monoxide (CO) reduction.

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,

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)]
[Explanatory note: The applicable emission fee amount and applicable minimum fee (if necessary)
are revised each calendar year to account for inflation, and they are available from AQD prior to
the start of each calendar year.]

[RAC 2-111(3)(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
program. It is the permittee’s responsibility to determine if a preconstruction
permit is required prior to commencing construction, modification, or
reconstruction.

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,

accessed through the EPA's Central Data Exchange (CDX)
(https://cdx.epa.gov/). The EPA will make all the information submitted
through CEDRI available to the public without further notice to you. Do
not use CEDRI to submit information you claim as CBI. Although we do
not expect persons to assert a claim of CBI, if you wish to assert a CBI
claim for some of the information in the report or notification, you must
submit a complete file in the format specified in this subpart, including
information claimed to be CBI, to the EPA following the procedures in
§60.5420b(d). Clearly mark the part or all of the information that you
claim to be CBI. Information not marked as CBI may be authorized for
public release without prior notice. Information marked as CBI will not be
disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
All CBI claims must be asserted at the time of submission. Anything
submitted using CEDRI cannot later be claimed CBI. Furthermore, under
CAA section 114(c), emissions data is not entitled to confidential
treatment, and the EPA is required to make emissions data available to the
public. Thus, emissions data will not be protected as CBI and will be made
publicly available. You must submit the same file submitted to the CBI
office with the CBI omitted to the EPA via the EPA's CDX as described
earlier in this paragraph.

that applies to you.
[40 CFR 63.6620(a)]
2.2.4.5.
Each performance test must be conducted according to the requirements
that this subpart specifies in Table 4 to this subpart. If you own or operate
a non-operational stationary RICE that is subject to performance testing,
you do not need to start up the engine solely to conduct the performance
test. Owners and operators of a non-operational engine can conduct the
performance test when the engine is started up again. The test must be
conducted at any load condition within plus or minus 10 percent of 100
percent load for the stationary RICE.

If you must comply with emission and operating limitations, you must monitor
and collect data according to this section.
2.2.5.1.
Except for monitor malfunctions, associated repairs, required performance
evaluations, and required quality assurance or control activities, you must
monitor continuously at all times that the stationary RICE is operating. A
monitoring malfunction is any sudden, infrequent, not reasonably
preventable failure of the monitoring to provide valid data. Monitoring
failures that are caused in part by poor maintenance or careless operation
are not malfunctions.
[40 CFR 63.6635(b)]
2.2.5.2.
You may not use data recorded during monitoring malfunctions,
associated repairs, and required quality assurance or control activities in

After you have demonstrated compliance for two consecutive tests, you may reduce the frequency of subsequent
performance tests to annually. If the results of any subsequent annual performance test indicate the stationary RICE
is not in compliance with the CO or formaldehyde emission limitation, or you deviate from any of your operating
limitations, you must resume semiannual performance tests.
2.2.5.4.
You must report each instance in which you did not meet each
requirement in Tables 2a and 2b to this subpart that applies. These
instances are deviations from the emission and operating limitations in this
subpart. These deviations must be reported according to the requirements
in §63.6650. If you change your catalyst, you must reestablish the values
of the operating parameters measured during the initial performance test.
When you reestablish the values of your operating parameters, you must
also conduct a performance test to demonstrate that you are meeting the
required emission limitation applicable to your stationary RICE.
[40 CFR 63.6640(b)]
73
2.2.5.4.1. You must conduct the performance test within 180 days of the
catalyst change.
[RAC 2-110(5)]
2.2.5.5.
For new, reconstructed, and rebuilt stationary RICE, deviations from the
emission or operating limitations that occur during the first 200 hours of
operation from engine startup (engine burn-in period) are not violations.
Rebuilt stationary RICE means a stationary RICE that has been rebuilt as
that term is defined in 40 CFR 94.11(a).
[40 CFR 63.6640(d)]
2.2.5.6.
You must also report each instance in which you did not meet the
requirements in Table 8 to this subpart that apply.

If you are required to conduct a performance test or other initial
compliance demonstration as specified in Tables 4 and 5 to this subpart,
you must submit a Notification of Compliance Status according to
§63.9(h)(2)(ii).
[40 CFR 63.6645(h)]
2.2.6.4.1. For each initial compliance demonstration required in Table 5
to this subpart that does not include a performance test, you
must submit the Notification of Compliance Status before the
74
close of business on the 30th day following the completion of
the initial compliance demonstration.
[40 CFR 63.6645(h)(1)]
2.2.6.4.2. For each initial compliance demonstration required in Table 5
to this subpart that includes a performance test conducted
according to the requirements in Table 3 to this subpart, you
must submit the Notification of Compliance Status, including
the performance test results, before the close of business on the
60th day following the completion of the performance test
according to §63.10(d)(2). Beginning on February 26, 2025, for
each initial compliance demonstration required in table 5 to
this subpart that includes a performance test conducted
according to the requirements in table 3 to this subpart, you
must submit the Notification of Compliance Status, including a
summary of the performance test results, in PDF to the EPA
via the Compliance and Emissions Data Reporting Interface
(CEDRI), before the close of business on the 60th day
following the completion of the performance test following the
procedure specified in §63.9(k), except any Confidential
Business Information (CBI) is to be submitted according to
§63.6645(h)(2)(i) and (ii). Do not use CEDRI to submit
information you claim as CBI. Although we do not expect
persons to assert a claim of CBI, if you wish to assert a CBI
claim for some of the information in the report, you must
submit a complete file, including information claimed to be
CBI, to the EPA following the procedures in §63.6645(h)(2)(i)
and (ii). Clearly mark the part or all of the information that you
claim to be CBI. Information not marked as CBI may be
authorized for public release without prior notice. Information
marked as CBI will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2. All CBI claims must be
asserted at the time of submission. Anything submitted using
CEDRI cannot later be claimed CBI. Furthermore, under CAA
section 114(c), emissions data is not entitled to confidential
treatment, and the EPA is required to make emissions data
available to the public. Thus, emissions data will not be
protected as CBI and will be made publicly available. You
must submit the same file submitted to the CBI office with the
CBI omitted to the EPA via the EPA's CDX as described
earlier in §63.6645(h)(2).
[40 CFR 63.6645(h)(2)]
2.2.6.4.2.1. The preferred method to receive CBI is for it to be
transmitted electronically using email attachments, File
75
Transfer Protocol, or other online file sharing services.
Electronic submissions must be transmitted directly to the
OAQPS CBI Office at the email address
oaqpscbi@epa.gov, and as described in §63.6645(h)(2),
should include clear CBI markings and be flagged to the
attention of the Reciprocating Internal Combustion
Engine Sector Lead. If assistance is needed with
submitting large electronic files that exceed the file size
limit for email attachments, and if you do not have your
own file sharing service, please email oaqpscbi@epa.gov
to request a file transfer link.
[40 CFR 63.6645(h)(2)(i)]
2.2.6.4.2.2. If you cannot transmit the file electronically, you may
send CBI information through the postal service to the
following address: OAQPS Document Control Officer
