Albuquerque Facility – Facility Process Description Facility Process Description This plant produces precast concrete products that include either mild reinforcing with steel reinforcement bars or prestressing strand that uses 7-wire strand that is elongated using stressing jacks. In both cases, the products use concrete that is mixed in a batch plant located on the premises. The concrete process starts with delivery of aggregate and sand. The aggregate and sand are delivered by trucks (Unit 1) and unloaded/dumped into either uncovered stationary storage bins (Unit 22) on the ground or into a below ground hopper (Unit 2) and conveyed (Units 3 and 4) into uncovered elevated storage bins (Unit 5). The materials in the storage bins on the ground can be moved by a front-end loader to the below ground hopper as needed. A secondary conveyor system (Units 6 and 7) will move the aggregate and sand into the batch plant where it is weighed and loaded into one of two concrete mixers (Units 9 and 10). Cement, fly ash, and silica fume are delivered to the plant via truck and hopper trailer. The trailer uses a sealed blower and hose to unload into one of four elevated covered silos (Units 11, 12, 13, and 25). These silos are equipped with bag houses. These cementitious materials are delivered by a closed auger to a scale (Unit 15), where it is dropped into one of the mixers. Three of the four silos are exclusively marked for cement, silica fume or fly ash. The fourth smaller silo has been used to store white cement. The final mixed concrete material is unloaded through a drop gate at the bottom of the mixer into a concrete delivery vehicle. This vehicle will be driven to a bed form where it is unloaded onto the form. Once the bed form is 100% filled with concrete, the remaining concrete is unloaded onto the ground by the batch plant to dry. The dried excess concrete is placed in a pile where it is loaded and hauled away to an off-site location to be recycled/crushed. After the bed forms are filled with concrete, they are covered with a tarp and a steam generator is used to accelerate the curing process (Units 16, 19, 20, and 21). The steam generators are enclosed in a building and have steam pipes that are placed under the bed forms. The steam heat is typically run under the bed forms at night. There are four (4) locations where emergency materials (Unit 22) will be stored. As you can see in Figure A-1, you can see the locations of all emergency piles and their relationship to the proposed abrasive blasting sites. Of the four emergency pile locations, three have the potential for worst-case impacts in the particulate dispersion model analysis. To provide the worst-case modeling results for particulate emissions, two scenarios were modeled; Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, LLC Page E-1 Coreslab Structures, Inc. Albuquerque Facility – Facility Process Description • Abrasive blasting at the main location in the southern part of the site along with all Unit 22 emissions from emergency pile 4. This would address the effect of these two sources operating at the same time, nearest the same facility boundary, where the highest concentrations for PM10 24 hour averaging period modeling result. • Abrasive blasting at the alternative location east of the concrete silos along with emergency piles 1 and 2. This would address the combined emissions from abrasive blasting and emissions from the Unit 22 emergency pile emissions operating in the same general location. These two emergency piles are closest to Coreslab’s boundary and should have greater impact then locating emergency pile emissions from emergency pile 3. Occasionally, there is a customer request to expose the aggregate on a surface of the precast products. To complete this action, the plant will use one of two media blasting machines to blast away the concrete surface to expose the aggregate (Units 23 and 24). The media used is either a black slag, coal slag or sand. There is a limited area in the plant to perform this activity.

(Montrose) on behalf of Coreslab Structures (Albuquerque), Inc. (Coreslab), to evaluate ambient air quality impacts from addition of dry abrasive blasting (in one of two locations at the site) and an additional silo. The location of the Albuquerque facility is 2800 2nd Street SE in Albuquerque, NM. The objective of this evaluation is to determine whether ambient air concentrations from the maximum operation of the proposed project for nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter; both 10 microns or less (PM10) and 2.5 microns or less (PM2.5); are below Class II federal and state ambient air quality standards (NAAQS and NMAAQS) found in 40 CFR part 50 and the City of Albuquerque/Bernalillo County (COABC) air quality regulation 20.11.8 NMAC. The dispersion modeling was conducted using the American Meteorological Society/Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model Improvement Committee Dispersion Model (AERMOD), Version 18018. This model is recommended by EPA for determining Class II impacts within 50 km of the source being assessed. Additionally, AERMOD was developed to handle complex terrain. In this analysis, AERMOD was used to estimate pollutant ambient air concentrations of NO2, CO, SO2, PM10 and PM2.5 from the Coreslab facility emission sources. Montrose employs the general modeling procedures outlined in “Permit Modeling Guidelines, Albuquerque Environmental Health Department”, revised 12/20/2018, “New Mexico Air Pollution Control Bureau, Dispersion Modeling Guidelines”, revised 01/01/2019, and the most up to date EPA’s Guideline on Air Quality Models. Aggregate material handling equipment, stockpiles, and haul roads was input into the model as volume sources. Model input parameters for feeders and transfer points will follow the NMED model guidelines Table 27 and site release heights. Model input parameters for haul roads will follow the NMED model guidelines Tables 28 and 29. Figure 1 below shows the location of the site overview. For abrasive blasting there are two locations modeled that would allow operation in either location to be used. For the emergency piles there are three locations modeled that would allow operation at any of the three locations. Additional neighboring sources identified by the COABC AQP Program that was included in the dispersion model analysis is Quikrete located directly north of this site, Pet Crematory, C&C Services, Albuquerque Asphalt, PNM’s Rio Bravo Generating Station, and CEI Industries. For Quikrete, a site visit was performed to identify all permitted sources and their model input information for combustion and particulate matter emissions. Information on nitrogen dioxide model inputs for the other neighboring sources was obtained from the COABC AQP modeling section. Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc.

Page 2 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 2.0 DISPERSION MODELING PROTOCOL This section identifies the technical approach and dispersion model inputs that will be used for the Class II federal and State ambient air quality standards for this source. COABC Air Quality Program (AQP) requires that all applicable criteria pollutant emissions be modeled using the most recent versions of US EPA’s approved models and be compared with National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), and Bernalillo County Ambient Air Quality Standards. Table 1 shows the NAAQS and Bernalillo County Ambient Air Quality Standards that the source’s ambient impacts must meet in order to demonstrate compliance. Table 1 also lists the Class II Significant Impact Levels (SILs) which are used to assess whether a source has a significant impact at downwind receptors. The dispersion modeling analysis will be performed to estimate concentrations resulting from the operation of the Coreslab sources using the existing permitted emission rates and maximum emission rates for new sources while all emission sources are operating. The modeling will determine the maximum off site concentrations for nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and particulate matter; both 10 microns or less (PM10) and 2.5 microns or less (PM2.5), for comparison with modeling significance levels, national/Bernalillo County ambient air quality standards (AAQS). The modeling will follow the guidance and protocols outlined in the “Permit Modeling Guidelines, Albuquerque Environmental Health Department”, revised 12/20/2018, “New Mexico Air Pollution Control Bureau, Dispersion Modeling Guidelines”, revised 01/01/2019, and the most up to date EPA’s Guideline on Air Quality Models. Initial modeling will be performed with Coreslab sources only to determine pollutant and averaging periods that exceeds pollutant SILs. If initial modeling for any pollutant and averaging period exceeds SILs, then cumulative modeling was performed for those pollutants and averaging periods for all receptors that exceeds the SILs which included significant neighboring sources along with background ambient concentrations.

Page 4 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 2.1 DISPERSION MODEL SELECTION The dispersion modeling will be conducted using the American Meteorological Society/Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model Improvement Committee Dispersion Model (AERMOD), Version 18081. This model is recommended by EPA for determining Class II impacts within 50 km of the source being assessed. Additionally, AERMOD was developed to handle complex terrain. In this analysis, AERMOD will be used to estimate pollutant ambient air concentrations of NO2, CO, SO2, PM10, and PM2.5 from Coreslab emission sources. AERMOD is a Gaussian plume dispersion model that is based on planetary boundary layer principles for characterizing atmospheric stability. The model evaluates the non-Gaussian vertical behavior of plumes during convective conditions with the probability density function and the superposition of several Gaussian plumes. AERMOD modeling system has three components: AERMAP, AERMET, and AERMOD. AERMAP is the terrain preprocessor program. AERMET is the meteorological data preprocessor. AERMOD includes the dispersion modeling algorithms and was developed to handle simple and complex terrain issues using improved algorithms. AERMOD uses the dividing streamline concept to address plume interactions with elevated terrain. AERMOD was run using all the regulatory default options including use of: • Gradual Plume Rise • Stack-tip Downwash • Buoyancy-induced Dispersion • Calms and Missing Data Processing Routine • Upper-bound downwash concentrations for super-squat buildings • Default wind speed profile exponents • Calculate Vertical Potential Temperature Gradient • No use of gradual plume rise • Rural Dispersion 2.2 BUILDING WAKE EFFECTS Coreslab Services structures will be included in the model as a building and analyzed as a building downwash source using the BPIP-Prime program. The results of the BPIP-Prime output will be inputted into the AERMOD model. 2.3 METEOROLOGICAL DATA Dispersion model meteorological input file to be used in this modeling analysis are years 2001 - 2005 Albuquerque met data (AERMET version 16216 dated 01/30/2017) available from the COABC AQP. Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc. Page 5 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 2.4 RECEPTORS AND TOPOGRAPHY Modeling will be completed using as many receptor locations to ensure that the maximum estimated impacts are identified. Initial radius of impact modeling will be performed with receptors within 3 kilometers of the model boundary. Because of the nature of the emissions from the site, it is expected the maximum concentrations will be on or near the site fenceline. The refined receptor grid will include receptors located at 50 meters apart out to 500 meters from the property line, 100 meters apart from 500 meters out to 1000 meters, and 250 meters apart from 1000 meters out to 3000 meters. Fenceline receptor spacing will be 25 meters. All refined model receptors will be preprocessed using the AERMAP software associated with AERMOD. The AERMAP software establishes a base elevation and a height scale for each receptor location. The height scale is a measure of the receptor’s location and base elevation and its relation to the terrain feature that has the greatest influence in dispersion for that receptor. AERMAP will be run using U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) digital elevation model (DEM) data. Output from AERMAP will be used as input to the AERMOD runstream file for each model run. 2.5 MODELED EMISSION SOURCES INPUTS The permitted operating time for the facilities concrete production is 12 hours per day (7 AM to 7 PM). For proposed abrasive blasting operations, Coreslab will take site-specific conditions on daily abrasive use and hours of operation. For the months of March through September the daily throughput will be limited to 12,295 pounds (5 hours maximum at 2459 lbs/hr) from 7 AM to 7 PM. For the months of October through February the daily throughput will be limited to 12,295 pounds (5 hours maximum at 2459 lbs/hr) from 8 AM to 5 PM. For modeling, the hourly blocks vary starting from 7 AM then shifting on 2-hour intervals for 5 separate model runs as summarized on Table 2.

Page 6 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 2.5.1 Coreslab Facility Road Vehicle Traffic Model Inputs The access road fugitive dust for aggregate truck delivery traffic will be modeled as a line of volume sources. The NMED AQB’s approved procedure for Modeling Haul Roads will be followed to develop modeling input parameters for haul roads. Volume source characterization followed the steps described in the NMED Air Quality Bureau’s Guidelines. Additional truck traffic involving product delivery to clients, will travel on paved roads that will not be included in the dispersion modeling. Following the guidelines found in the City of Albuquerque “Air Dispersion Modeling Guidelines for Air Quality Permitting”, Coreslab will meet the requirements for control measures to prevent visible emissions of fugitive dust during haul truck/trailer travel for product. 2.5.2 Coreslab Facility Material Handling Volume Source Model Inputs Particulate emissions from material handling and process from aggregate unloading, transfers and storage will be modeled as volume sources. Model input parameters for feeders and transfer points follow the NMED Air Quality Bureau’s model guidelines Table 27 and site release heights. 2.5.3 Coreslab Facility Point Source Model Inputs Emissions from exhaust stacks from the dust collectors will be modeled as point sources. Model input parameters are based on previously permitted release height, release diameter, release velocity or flow rate, and ambient temperature. The steam generator’s combustion emissions are release along with the steam at the steam beds. To represent steam generator combustion emissions, the source will be represented as point sources. These sources will have a diameter of the steam beds, a release height of zero feet, a velocity of 0.001 meters per second, and a steam temperature of 400 degrees F. For horizontal or raincap releases, the AERMOD version for horizontal and raincap releases will be used with actual release parameters. Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc.

Page 10 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 2.6 PM2.5 SECONDARY EMISSIONS MODELING The form of the PM2.5 24-hour design value is based on the 98th percentile or the highest 8th high result. Calculated PM2.5 combustion emission rates included into the model consist of both filterable and condensable components. Secondary PM2.5 emissions from combustion sources are created by the conversion to nitrates and sulfates as the exhaust plume travels away from the source and mixes with ambient air. Fugitive dust emission sources do not consist of a condensable component and will not create secondary emissions of PM2.5. PM2.5 secondary emission concentration analysis will follow EPA guidelines. Based on requested permitted emission rates, the Tier 1 analysis was used since direct PM2.5 emissions are less than 10 tpy, and NOx and SO2 emissions are less than 40 tpy. The comparison with the PM2.5 24-hour NAAQS with model results will be based on the 98th percentile or highest 8th high. 2.7 NO2 DISPERSION MODELING ANALYSIS The AERMOD model predicts ground-level concentrations of any generic pollutant without chemical transformations. Thus, the modeled NOX emission rate will give ground-level modeled concentrations of NOX. NAAQS values are presented as NO2. EPA has a three-tier approach to modeling NO2 concentrations. • Tier I – total conversion, or all NOx = NO2 • Tier II –Ambient Ratio Method 2 (ARM2) • Tier III – case-by-case detailed screening methods, such as OLM and Plume Volume Molar Ratio Method (PVMRM) and NO2/NOX in-stack ratio Initial modeling will be performed using Tier II methodology. If these modeling iterations demonstrate that less conservative methods for determining 1-hour, 24-hour, and annual NO2 compliance would be needed for this project, then ambient impact of 1-hour, 24-hour, and annual NOx predicted by the model will use Tier III – OLM or PVMRM. For OLM or PVMRM, three inputs can be selected in the model, the ISR, the NO2/NOX equilibrium ratio for the ambient air, and the ambient ozone concentration. The ISR will be determined for each source or group of sources. The NO2/NOX equilibrium ratio will be the EPA default of 0.90. Ozone input will be from monitored ozone data collected from city monitoring station. It is evident from modeling experience that at distances close to a modeled source, the modeled NO2/NOX ratio (and, thus, the NO2 concentration) is highly dependent upon the assumed in‐stack Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc. Page 11 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report ratio. The use of the default ratio of 0.5 can result in large over predictions at a facility fence line. Proposed NO2/NOx ratio are listed below. Coreslab Natural Gas‐fired heater/boiler – NO2/NOx ratio = 0.20 For neighboring sources, ISR model inputs were based on accepted values for nearby common combustion sources and EPA’s default ISR value for nearby uncommon combustion sources. For diesel-fired engines, Albuquerque Asphalt and C&C engines, the ISR is 0.15, based on EPA ISR database. For nearby Quikrete, CEI, and Pet Cemetery combustion sources, the EPA default value of 0.50 was used. For PNM’ Rio Bravo Station, since the ISR has a diminishing impact on ambient NO2/NOX ratios as a plume is transported 1 to 3 kilometers farther downwind due to mixing and reaction towards background ambient NO2/NOX ratios, the ISR of 0.201 was used For NOX, NAAQS and NMAAQS applicable averaging periods include 1-hour, 24-hour and annual averages. Model Ozone Data For OLM or PVMRM, modeling of the project-generated 1-hour NO2 concentrations requires use of ambient monitored O3 concentrations. Background ambient O3 concentrations for the project area during the 2001-2005 meteorological data years have been obtained from the Del Norte (Years 2001 - 2002)2 monitoring station and South Valley (Years 2003 – 2005) monitoring station, which is the monitoring site nearest to the project. Concerning data substitution for missing hourly O3 ambient monitoring data, the hourly O3 data are used within the AERMOD air dispersion model when operated using the PVMRM option that simulates the atmospheric chemistry of O3 reacting with initially emitted nitric oxide (NO) to form NO2. If there is only a limited amount of O3 in the plume, then the reaction is limited, forming less NO2 than occurs with the simplifying assumption of complete conversion. The model disperses the initial NOX emissions, which are mostly NO, during each of the 8,760 hours in a 365- day year. If the hourly ambient O3 data from the nearest monitoring station have missing data, the missing O3 hours are given substituted concentrations with the following procedure to better simulate the resulting NO2 concentrations: • If two or fewer consecutive hours of O3 ambient concentrations are missing, the missing concentrations will be based on the highest previous or subsequent hour concentrations. • If three or more consecutive hours of O3 ambient concentrations are missing, then substitution for each missing concentration will be based on the highest 1 hour for same hour in the day over that month. Example: for data missing in January for the first hour of the day will be substituted for the highest value for all first hour of the day in January, etc. 1 Technical support document (TSD) for NO2-related AERMOD modifications, EPA- 454/B-15-004, July 2015 2 Ozone monitoring did not begin at the South Valley monitoring station until July 2002. Del Norte monitoring station data is substituted for years 2001 - 2002 into the background ozone data input into the dispersion model. Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc. Page 12 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 2.8 AMBIENT MODELING BACKGROUND Ambient background concentrations will be added to the dispersion modeling results and compared to the NAAQS and NMAAQS. Background concentrations were obtained from the COABC AQP Modeling Section with the exception of the 1-hour NO2 background methodology discussed below. CO 1-hr: 2635 micrograms per cubic meter CO 8-hr: 1718 micrograms per cubic meter NO2 Annual: 30 micrograms per cubic meter SO2 1-hr: 13.1 micrograms per cubic meter SO2 24-hr: 0 micrograms per cubic meter SO2 Annual: 0 micrograms per cubic meter PM10 24-hr: 35 micrograms per cubic meter PM2.5 24-hr: 18.0 micrograms per cubic meter PM2.5 annual: 7.2 micrograms per cubic meter NO2 1-hour Background data NO2 1-hour background data will be based on the Tier 2 procedure found in EPA guidance documents3 for determining background concentrations. “Based on this guidance, we believe that an appropriate methodology for incorporating background concentrations in the cumulative impact assessment for the 1-hour NO2 standard would be to use multiyear averages of the 98th-percentile of the available background concentrations by season and hour-of-day, excluding periods when the source in question is expected to impact the monitored concentration (which is only relevant for modified sources). For situations involving a significant mobile source component to the background monitored concentrations, inclusion of a day-of-week component to the temporal variability may also be appropriate. The rank associated with the 98th- percentile of daily maximum 1-hour values should be generally consistent with the number of “samples” within that distribution for each combination based on the temporal resolution but also account for the number of samples “ignored” in specifying the 98th- percentile based on the annual distribution. For example, Table 1 in Section 5 of Appendix S specifies the rank associated with the 98th-percentile value based on the annual number of days with valid data. Since the number of days per season will range from 90 to 92, Table 1 would indicate that the 2nd-highest value from the seasonal distribution should be used to represent the 98th-percentile. On the other hand, use of the 2nd-highest value for each season would effectively “ignore” only 4 values for the year rather than the 7 values “ignored” from the annual distribution. Balancing these considerations, we recommend that background values by season and hour-of-day used in this context should be based on the 3rd-highest value for each season and hour-of-day combination, whereas the 8th- highest value should be used if values vary by hour-of-day only. For more detailed temporal pairing, such as season by hour-of- day and day-of-week or month by hour-of- 3 Memo: “Additional Clarification Regarding Application of Appendix W Modeling Guidance for 1-hour N02 National Ambient Air Quality Standard” Tyler Fox, Leader, Air Quality Modeling Group, C439-01, dated March 1, 2011.

Page 14 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report 3.0 MODEL SUMMARY This section summarizes the model results, following the technical approach approved in Section 2 of this report for Class II federal ambient air quality standards for this facility. Model results show for each modeled criteria pollutant and applicable averaging periods for nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter; both 10 microns or less (PM10) and 2.5 microns or less (PM2.5), the proposed permit revision application of Coreslab does not contribute to an exceedance of Class II federal and state ambient air quality standards (NAAQS and NMAAQS) and the City of Albuquerque/Bernalillo County (COABC) air quality regulation 20.11.8 NMAC. The modeling followed the guidance and protocols outlined in the protocol found in Section 2 of this report, the “Permit Modeling Guidelines, Albuquerque Environmental Health Department”, revised 12/20/2018, “New Mexico Air Pollution Control Bureau, Dispersion Modeling Guidelines”, revised 01/01/2019, and the most up to date EPA’s Guideline on Air Quality Models. The permitted operating time for the facilities concrete production is 12 hours per day (7 AM to 7 PM). For proposed abrasive blasting operations, Coreslab will take site-specific conditions on daily abrasive use and hours of operation. For the months of March through September the daily hours of operation were limited to 7 AM to 7 PM. For the months of October through February the daily hours of operation were limited to 8 AM to 5 PM. For modeling, the hourly blocks vary starting from 7 AM then shifting on 2-hour intervals for 5 separate model runs as summarized on Table 7. TABLE 7: Abrasive Blasting Model Scenario Time Segments Time Segments Model Scenario 5-Hour Blocks March - September October - February 1 7 AM to 12 PM 8 AM to 1 PM 2 9 AM to 2 PM 3 11 AM to 4 PM 4 1 PM to 6 PM 12 PM to 5 PM 5 2 PM to 7 PM 12 PM to 5 PM For particulate modeling, neighboring Quikrete can operate 16 hours per day anytime in a 24-hour period or the equivalent to two 8-hour shifts. To determine the potential worst-case modeling impacts from Quikrete, Coreslab will analyze modeling for combined shifts 2 and 3 (6 AM to 10 PM) or shifts 3 and 1 (2 PM to 6 AM). Of these two options the shifts 2 and 3 option (2 PM to 6 AM) would have the facility operating during all nighttime hours. Historically, nighttime hours provide the highest concentrations for ground release fugitive sources due to low wind speeds and a stable boundary layer. Additionally, PM2.5 annual modeling will include an hourly factor to Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc. Page 15 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report address the difference in modeled hours and permit annual hours of operation limit. If the model ran for 16 hours per day, 365 days per year, this is equals 5,840 hours per year. The annual hours of operation in the permit is 4,992 hours per year. This is equivalent to an hourly factor of 0.855 (4,992/5,840) which will be input into the PM2.5 annual modeling. 3.1 SIGNIFICANT IMPACT LEVEL (SILs) MODELING ANALYSIS Significant impact level AERMOD dispersion modeling was completed for NO2, CO, SO2, PM10, and PM2.5.

Albuquerque Del Norte Monitor, years 2012 – 2014, 1-hour and annual NO2 background concentrations found in Section 2.7 of this report were added to the modeled results and compared to the lowest applicable ambient standard. For neighboring sources, ISR model inputs were based on accepted values for nearby common combustion sources and EPA’s default ISR value for nearby uncommon combustion sources. For diesel-fired engines, Albuquerque Asphalt and C&C engines, the ISR is 0.15, based on EPA ISR database. For nearby Quikrete, CEI, and Pet Cemetery combustion sources, the EPA default value of 0.50 was used. For PNM’ Rio Bravo Station, since the ISR has a diminishing impact on ambient NO2/NOX ratios as a plume is transported 1 to 3 kilometers farther downwind due to mixing and reaction towards background ambient NO2/NOX ratios, the ISR of 0.205 was used. For the 1-hour NO2 model, results show exceedances within CEI boundaries of the NO2 8th highest 1-hour daily maximum NAAQS. This exceedance is caused by the CEI combustion source. Model results for receptors within CEI boundary were run excluding the CEI source showed no violation of the 1-hour NO2 NAAQS within CEI boundaries by all other combined combustion sources with background included. 4 Ozone monitoring did not begin at the South Valley monitoring station until July 2002. Del Norte monitoring station data is substituted for years 2001 - 2002 into the background ozone data input into the dispersion model. 5 Technical support document (TSD) for NO2-related AERMOD modifications, EPA- 454/B-15-004, July 2015 Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc.

Primary PM consists of carbon (soot)—emitted from cars, trucks, heavy equipment, forest fires, and burning waste—and crustal material from unpaved roads, stone crushing, construction sites, and metallurgical operations. Secondary PM forms in the atmosphere from gases. Some of these reactions require sunlight and/or water vapor. Secondary PM includes: • Sulfates formed from sulfur dioxide emissions from power plants and industrial facilities; • Nitrates formed from nitrogen oxide emissions from cars, trucks, industrial facilities, and power plants; and • Carbon formed from reactive organic gas emissions from cars, trucks, industrial facilities, forest fires, and biogenic sources such as trees. AERMOD does not account for secondary formation of PM2.5 for near-field modeling. Any secondary contribution of the Coreslab’s source emissions is not explicitly accounted for in the model results. While representative background monitoring data for PM2.5 should adequately account for secondary contribution from existing background sources, Coreslab sources emits less than significant emission rate (SER) of PM2.5 precursors (NOX, SO2, VOC), so no assessment of their potential contribution to cumulative impacts as secondary PM2.5 was performed. Total permit modification emissions of precursors include: • Nitrogen Oxides (NOX) – 2.74 tons per year (below SER) • Sulfur Dioxides (SO2) – 0.014 tons per year (below SER) • Volatile Organic Carbon (VOC) – 0.29 tons per year (below SER). CIA direct “primary” PM2.5 modeling was performed with terrain and meteorology which included 5 years of data, 2001 – 2005 Albuquerque Meteorological data, obtained from the AEHD AQP. Modeling was performed for both 24 hour and annual averaging periods with maximum PM2.5 hourly emission rate for Coreslab sources, annual modeling hourly factor, significant neighboring sources (Quikrete), and all Coreslab initial modeling receptors that were above the PM2.5 SILs. PM2.5 emission rates represented the maximum hourly rate for all emission sources. South Valley representative 24-hour and annual PM2.5 background concentrations was added to the modeled results and compared to the lowest applicable ambient standard. The 24-hour and annual background concentrations that were used for PM2.5 averaging periods are found in Section 2.8 of this report. For the Coreslab, direct “primary” PM2.5 emission rates are less than 10 tons per year (Significant Emission Rate - SER), and NOX and SO2 emission rates are less than 40 tons per year (SER), falling into category “Case 1” in EPA’s May, 2014 “Guidance for PM2.5 Permit Modeling”. For Case 1, no secondary PM2.5 ambient impacts associated with the Coreslab are required to be Prepared by Montrose Air Quality Services, Inc. Page 21 Coreslab Structures – Albuquerque Facility – Dispersion Model Report addressed. Direct “primary” PM2.5 concentrations using AERMOD dispersion model are summarized in Table 12. The permitted operating time for the facilities concrete production is 12 hours per day (7 AM to 7 PM). For proposed abrasive blasting operations, Coreslab will take site-specific conditions on daily abrasive use and hours of operation. For the months of March through September the daily throughput was limited to 12,295 pounds (5 hours maximum at 2459 lbs/hr) from 7 AM to 7 PM. For the months of October through February the daily throughput was limited to 12,295 pounds (5 hours maximum at 2459 lbs/hr) from 8 AM to 5 PM. For modeling, the hourly blocks vary starting from 7 AM then shifting on 2-hour intervals for 5 separate model runs as summarized on Table 11.

At these locations the highest concentrations are due to Quikrete sources. The result from direct “primary” PM2.5 emissions dispersion modeling, plus a representative PM2.5 background concentrations from Section 2.8 of this report, which includes monitored secondary PM2.5 concentrations, were used to show compliance with national PM2.5 annual and 24-hour average AAQS. The PM2.5 model runs that produced the 24-hour highest 8th high result was “CoreslabPMS5AltE” and the highest annual average result was “CoreslabPM2.5S5AnAltE”.

Modeling was performed for the 24-hour averaging periods with maximum PM10 hourly emission rate for Coreslab sources, significant neighboring sources (Quikrete), and all Coreslab initial modeling receptors that were above the PM10 24-hour SIL. South Valley representative 24-hour PM10 background concentrations was added to the modeled results and compared to the lowest applicable ambient standard. The 24-hour background concentrations that were used for PM10 averaging period are found in Section 2.8 of this report. The permitted operating time for the facilities concrete production is 12 hours per day (7 AM to 7 PM). For proposed abrasive blasting operations, Coreslab will take site-specific conditions on daily abrasive use and hours of operation. For the months of March through September the daily throughput was limited to 12,295 pounds (5 hours maximum at 2459 lbs/hr) from 7 AM to 7 PM. For the months of October through February the daily throughput was limited to 12,295 pounds (5 hours maximum at 2459 lbs/hr) from 8 AM to 5 PM.
