OF HEALTH AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY PERTAINING TO THE ANHEUSER-BUSCH AIR QUALITY PERMIT
WHEREAS, the citizens of the City of Fort Collins have established
goals to maintain the clean air in the community; and
WHEREAS, Anheuser-Busch has submitted an air quality permit appli-
cation for a major new source of air emissions in Fort Collins; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has appointed an Environmental Quality
Technical Advisory Committee (EQUATAC) to review and make recommendations
concerning Anheuser-Busch' s permit; and
WHEREAS, EQUATAC' s recommendations have been presented to the City
Council and the community; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has held one information session and two
public hearings on the Anheuser-Busch permit application.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT
COLLINS that the following comments be presented to both the State Depart-
ment of Health and the Environmental Protection Agency:
I. Best available control technology should be required for all
emissions from the brewery. The new source performance standards
for the emissions of oxides of nitrogen of .3 pounds per million
BTU when residual oil is used and .2 pounds per million BTU when
natural gas is used should be required if determined by EPA to be
technically feasible.
2. The emissions data in the emission source inventory used by
Anheuser-Busch for the Platte River Power Authority Rawhide Plant
are below either realistic operating levels or permitted levels
for sulfur dioxide and particulate matter. These numbers need to
be changed or further justified.
Passed and adopted at a regular meeting of the Council of the City of
Fort Collins held this 3rd day nrY,of a 1984.
