DEQ Art Glass Permanent Rule
Fiscal Impact Estimate for proposed rule- Bullseye Glass Company
Bullseye - Tier 2 | |||
Requirements summary | Install control device on all furnaces using glassmaking HAPs. If using chrome: source test & modeling to develop daily & annual max usage | ||
Cost Estimate | |||
low | high | ||
Permitting costs | |||
NESHAP 6S applies? | Y | ||
Needs Title V permit because of 6S | Y | ||
Cost of Title V application (including DEQ fees + consultant to prepare) | $25,000 | $100,000 | If a facility needs a Title V due to NESHAP 6S, that is independent of this art glass rule, so this cost isn't included in the totals. |
Annual DEQ Title V permit costs | $10,310 | $11,510 | If a facility needs a Title V due to NESHAP 6S, that is independent of this art glass rule, so this cost isn't included in the totals. |
Incremental extra cost of Title V application due to art glass rule | $0 | $5,000 | Assume preparing the permit application would cost 0% to 5% more because of the incremental addition of the proposed rules. |
Incremental extra cost of Title V annual permit fees due to art glass rule | $0 | $0 | The proposed rules would not increase the annual permit fees if the facility would have a Title V anyway. |
Number of Control Devices | |||
# of additional baghouses installed, over and above what would have been installed due to NESHAP 6S alone | 0 | 2 | This is uncertain because changes to comply with NESHAP 6S are happening at the same time as efforts to comply with this rule. |
Cost Per Control Device | |||
Install baghouse | $250,000 | $400,000 | |
Install baghouse leak detection system or HEPA afterfilter | $10,000 | $30,000 | |
One-time ‘grain loading’ source test to demonstrate baghouse is working | $4,000 | $15,000 | Assume length of run depends on detection limits, does not have to be entire production run. |

Source Testing Costs | |||
One-time source test to measure Cr6 emissions when making products containing Cr3 or Cr6 | $60,000 | $65,000 | Assume 16 hr test runs. May be able to run concurrently with grain loading test, reducing cost. $10-15k if test can be done in 1-3 hr runs. If 16hr runs, $65k. If 4-day runs, $100k. |
Modeling Costs | |||
One-time modeling to find max production rate that results in acceptable source impact level | |||
AERSCREEN model only | $10,000 | - | |
AERSCREEN followed by AERMOD model | - | $30,000 | |
Total Costs
If 0 additional baghouses installed | |||
One-time costs | $70,000 | $100,000 | |
Annual costs | $0 | $0 | |
If 2 additional baghouses installed | |||
One-time costs | $598,000 | $990,000 | |
Annual costs | $54,000 | $174,000 |

Incremental extra cost of Title V application due to art glass rule | $0 | $3,000 | Assume preparing the permit application would cost 0% to 5% more because of the incremental addition of the proposed rules. (Rounded to the nearest thousand.) |
Incremental extra cost of Title V annual permit fees due to art glass rule | $0 | $0 | The proposed rules would not increase the annual permit fees if the facility would have a Title V anyway. |
