1) Location/Directions
Columbus McKinnon is located at 2020 Country Club Road,just outside of Wadesboro,NC in Anson
County. From the intersection of HWY 74 and HWY 52 in Wadesboro,take Hwy 52 South and go— 1 1/2
miles to Country Club Road. Turn left and entrance to building is about 50 yards on right hand side.Enter j
through front office.
2) Safety considerations: Standard DAQ safety equipment.Be aware of forklift traffic in the warehouse, as
well as the heavy hoists that are transferred via overhead conveyor systems to the paint booths.
3) Facility and Process Description
Columbus McKinnon is a Division of Columbus McKinnon Corporation. This facility operates under Air
Permit No.3671R10,effective from 20 August 2013 until 31 July 2018.Mike Thomas conducted the last
compliance inspection on 26 February 2015.
The facility produces electric and hand-operated chain and cable hoists, as well as support
components for hoists. Hoists range in size from 250 pounds to 20 tons lifting capacity. Housing
castings and hoist parts are received from outside vendors,and the hoists are assembled and painted at
this facility. There is a small metal grinding operation for removal of any extraneous metal or burrs
from the metal castings. After full assembly,the hoists are painted in one of three paint spray booths.
The paint booths are equipped with integral panel filters to capture paint overspray droplets.
The painting operations became subject to NESHAP Subpart 6H because the facility utilized coatings
that contained Chromium in excess of 0.1%or Lead in excess of 1%by weight.
Note that the facility has now discontinued the use of coatings with 6H Target HAP. However,the
Subpart 6H requirements still apply to the facility because the facility has not requested an exemption
from the regulation for not using the target HAP. The facility has not made the request to be exempt
due to their desire to remain subject to the requirements set forth in 6H.

5) Inspection Conference
On 18 November 2015,I Mike Thomas of FRO DAQ arrived at Columbus McKinnon to conduct a
routine compliance inspection. I was informed that the facility contact David Sears was not onsite due
to taking an employee to be treated for an injury. I met briefly with Ms.Deborah Taylor, Mr. Sear's
assistant. I spoke to Mr. Sears on 30 November 2015 to discuss production numbers and having the
facility be exempted from 6H. Mr. Sears stated that he would pose the question of filing the
paperwork to be exempt from 6H to his superiors again to see if their position has changed.

2014 4,595 al 494 gal 138 gal 0.083
* Based on reviewing the facility's Annual HAP &VOC report it was discovered that there were
numerous errors in the spreadsheet used to calculate these values. The numbers were grossly
incorrect and inflated in the past. This error was corrected and appropriate numbers submitted in the
Facility's 2016 Annual Report.
6) Inspection Summary
Ms. Taylor led me on a brief tour of the facility which was operating. I observed the three paint
booths (ES-1375,ES-SPR-9, and ES-SPR-14). All three active booths are clearly labeled,according
to the permit Emission Source ID. I observed that the areas immediately outside of the booths were
clean, and all of the handling,cleaning and storage areas near the booths were clean as well.
Operators keep a filter log outside of each booth,noting when the filters are changed. I checked each
log and all had current entries. I observed no problems with any of the paint booths.
During the facility tour I observed that VOC work practices are being adhered to. I saw no uncovered
containers of VOC containing materials, nor did I see any spills or cleaning rags out in the open.
