Two Rivers Terminal, Pasco
Air quality notice of construction application – Opportunity to request a public comment period
Dec. 19, 2024, 12 a.m. - Jan. 8, 2025, 11:59 p.m.
We propose to approve Two Rivers Terminal's air quality notice of construction (NOC) application. We will hold a public comment period if one is requested.
Two Rivers Terminal submitted a notice of construction application for their existing permitted facility located at 3300 C Glade N Road, in Pasco. They requested to add a “bag to bulk” process, which allows the facility to transfer materials in bulk bags into trucks for transport. This process will use the existing dust collection system (a baghouse) to capture fine particle (PM) emissions.
A baghouse is an industrial dust collector that uses felt bags to filter dusty air produced during manufacturing and processing. A dust collector cleans the air by filtering hazardous dust and fine particles released into the work environment or the air outside, helping to keep the air clean.
Document for review
We determined this proposal satisfies the requirements of Chapter 173-400 WAC. We plan to approve the application. We will hold a public comment period on a draft air permit ("approval order") that includes this change if we receive a written request by January 8, 2025.
To request a public comment period, use one of the ways listed below.
To find out if there are more records for this project, contact our Public Records Office.

Background
A notice of construction permit is required before installing a new source of air pollution or modifying an existing source of air pollution. This permit is sometimes called a "pre-construction permit" because a business must have one before starting construction or operating their business.
A notice of construction air permit limits the amount of air pollutants a business can emit.
