(1)  flour mills or other grain processing facilities;

(2)  distilleries;

(3)  breweries;

(4)  powdered food plants;

(5)  fertilizer production or mixing plants;

(6)  concrete plants;

(7)  ceramic, refractory composite, clay or porcelain products plants;

(8)  polyvinyl chloride processing plants;

The emission limit prescribed by the first paragraph also applies to any particle collection system designed to prevent fugitive particle emissions during the transfer, fall or handling of the materials referred to in section 12, except sawdust and wood chips for which the particle emission limit value is 50 mg/Rm3 of dry gas.
