MACT Subpart 4Z— Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines—not subject,since facility has no emergency generators. 1) Location Coffing Hoists is located at 2020 Country Club Road,just outside of Wadesboro,NC in Anson County. Directions From FRO,take Hwy 401 South to Wagram.Turn right at Old Wire Road(Hwy 144)and go— 11 '/z miles to Laurel Hill. Turn right at Hwy 74 and go west—35 miles to Wadesboro. Turn left onto Hwy 52 South and go - 1 ''/2 miles to Country Club Road. Turn left and entrance to building is about 50 yards on right hand side. Enter through front office. Safety considerations: Standard DAQ safety equipment. Be aware of fo•ldift traffic in the warehouse. 2) Facility and Process Description Coffing Hoists Company manufactures electrical and hand operated chain hoist equipment, and is a Division of Columbus McKinnon Corporation. This facility operates under Air Permit No. 3671R09,effective from 16 October 2009 until 30 September 2013. Cindy Grimes conducted the last compliance inspection on 29 Ju ty 2010. Most of the hoist components parts are pre-caste or pre-molded metal pants(i.e. different size metal hoist housing),with the motors and other parts received as raw finished products. There are eight(8)assembly wort: cells in the facility, which assemble the different types of hoists and chain pulleys that Coffing Hoists makes. The assembled hoists and chain pulleys are manually spray painted and labeled within different paint spray booths. The metal grinding and sanding operations are done to smooth out the inner and outer surfaces of the metallic hoist housing. A fabric filter is located inside the facility and is installed on these two operations, and this fabric-filtered air is exhausted to the inside of the building;the particulate is collected inside a 55-gal drum. Grinding metal parts generates metal particles that are collected by suction hoses immediately behind the grinding wheel and then collected in a barrel;thus, it is a self-contained dust system(Note:A wet scrubber used to be permitted here for the metal working operation;the scrubber is no longer needed due to the size of material collected). The total facility is an 180,000 sq. ft. process and storage operation, the process area being—60% and the storage area—40%. Note: Coffing Hoists has undergone various physical changes since 2009, due to one of their plants in Michigan shutting down. Some of that plant's newer equipment was brought to Wadesboro and was either incorporated into its production or was put into storage for the time being.Three"new"paint booths were installed(ES-SPR-7, 9, and 14), one remained(ES-1375),and ES-0704 spray paint booth was disassembled and removed. Thus,there currently are four operational spray paint booths here. a) Throughputs for 2010 Employees: 210 (197 in 2009) Hours: I"shift 6:30AM—2:30PM, 52 weeks/year(50 weeks in 2009) 2"d shift 2:30PM— 10:30PM, 52 weeks/year(50 weeks in 2009) Paint used: In ES-1375 699 gallons-electrical booth(711 gallons in 2009) In ES-SPR-14 115 gallons-manual booth (374 gallons in 2009) 814 gallons total (1085 gallons in 2009) Total VOCs 2.4 tons/4,767 lbs(3.4 tons/6,763 lbs in 2009) Greatest HAP(Xylene) .5 ton/1,013 lbs (.86 tons/1,711.6 lbs in 2009) Total HAPS .88 ton/1,759 lbs (1.44 tons/2,879 lbs in 2009) b) Permitted Sources Emnssnon` rEntrssndnonroc s Coutroh QonholSyskem _ �3 . 1eSetipll. °,..�.-ts�, t�Ystgil)Tp ' '1i °'-besar lion soutce.IA is 3 �.�— P (NESHAP) One paint spray booth(filter type) One spray paint booth with NESHAP installed on a metal finishing operation CD-1375 panel filters _ ES-0704 One paint spray booth(filter type) One spray paint booth with (NESHAP) installed on a metal finishing operation CD-0704 _ panel filters ES-SPR-7 One paint spray booth(filter type) One spray paint booth with _(NESHAP) installed on a metal finishing operation CD-SPR-7 �_ panel filters J ES-SPR-9 One paint spray booth(filter type) One spray paint booth with (NESHAP) installed on a metal finishing operation CD-SPR-9 panel filters ES-SPR-14 One paint spray booth(filter type) CD-SPR-14 One spray paint booth with (NESHAP) installed on a metal finishing operationil panel filters c) Bnsignifncant/Exempt Activities s' � 4 � Sours ce of Soo ce 6f Tifle p Sogrce ExemptnonxRegulatimn'� �� , � r a 7a , ,t TAPs� L 'ollutants? r IES-FP-Foam Packaging I 2Q .0102 (c)(2)(E)(i) I No Yes I IES-937 -metal grinding operation I 2Q .0102(c)(2)(E)(i) I No Yes 3) Inspection Conference On 21 June 2011, 1 (Cindy Grimes) met with Linda Clappse,Environmental Health and Safety Manager,and Debbie Taylor, Office Manager. We discussed the following: a) Verified the FACPINDER information as being correct(Ms. Clappse's VA # is 276-475-3124, ext 1231). b) Ms. Clappse has been very diligent regarding the new NESHAP Subpart 6H, which went into effect 9 January 2011. We thoroughly discussed the requirements last year,as it applies to the facility's "Miscellaneous Surface Coating Operations", so she is aware of what they need to do, and are doing, to comply. The results are within the inspection summary. She also has an electronic virtual/hands-on paint training manual on her computer as part of her 6H program for the facility. e) I observed the records and spreadsheets kept regarding the daily and montlily totals of paint used and VOCs. They do an excellent job with the record keeping,and they keep a running month to month total throughout the year,instead of just totaling all the months at the end of each year.The VOCs remain fairly consistent, as the paints haven't changed. t) I met briefly with Joe Ombrello,Executive Director and Authorized Contact at this facility,explaining that I was there to conduct a compliance inspection. 4) Inspection Summary Ms. Clappse and Ms. Taylor led me on a tour of the facility,which was operating. I observed the following: a) Spray Paint Booths i) ES-1375—Electric hoists are painted here, with filters changed every other day; it was operating. ii) ES-0704—This booth is no longer operating and has been removed from site. iii) ES-SPR-7—The rotoblasting booth, where abrasive blast cleaning of the hoist is clone, to condition the hoists' surface for painting; it operates—2-3 times/week and was not operating during inspection. iv) ES-SPR-9—The "entruck" booth,where this particular type of hoist is painted; it was operating. v) ES-SPR-14—The"Shaw Box"booth,where the"Shaw Box"brand hoist is painted.The booth is totally enclosed and has two types of fitters, an intake filter in the ceiling and another filter throughout the floor area; it was operating. All of these active booths were clearly labeled, according to the permit Emission Source ID. There are currently— 100 total hoists painted per day within all of the booths. Filters are changed between 2-3 times/week;depending on the amount of paint used,and they are changed at the end of I"shift. I noticed 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 b) Spill Containment Areas: There are two spill containment areas. The first area is where the bull( transmission fluid is housed, and it contains a3000-gallon holding tank where all used oils are stored. When the tank is full, the oils are pumped out and disposed of as hazardous waste. The second area is where a 1000-gallon holding tank is housed.This is where cleaning solutions,which are used to wash the hoists before they are painted,are dumped and held before they are taken away as waste.Each 350-gal Ion cleaning tank(there are four)contains approximately 200 gallons of cleaning solution (14 gallons of solvent are generally used per 350 gallons of water). Each cleaning tank has a MSDS sign specifying what solvent is used in that tank. These tanks are dumped approximately every 2 weeks into the holding- tank and replaced with fresh solutions. c) Foam Packaging Area (IES-FP): This section is within the shipping area and was operating during my inspection. It consists of a foam packaging machine, which uses conventional packaging foam from 55 gallon drums. I saw no problems here. d) Metal Grinding Operation (IES-937): This area only operates—once a week and is used to grind any pieces of metal off various facing parts. Once done, the operator sweeps up the metal fiagments and disposes of them. It was not operating during my inspection, and the area was fairly clean. e) Miscellaneous Surface Coating Operations (GACT 6H) Requirements i) Use of HVLP (high volume, low pressure) spray guns—verified through manufacturer documentation, provided by facility. ii) Prep Station/Spray Booth must have full roof and at least 3 walls or side curtains—verified during inspection. iii) Filters must be>98%efficient—verified through Columbus Industries (filter manufacturer) documentation, provided by facility;filters are documented to be 99.8% efficient. iv) Painters must complete certification training(initial training valid for 5 years,with refresher trainin, repeated every 5 years)—verified with training certificates(dated 4 August 2010),through High Point Pneumatics(trainer Myland Cook),provided by facility. v) Acceptable means of spray gun cleaning, including hand washing, manual flushing, and using enclosed gun washer—verified during inspection(facility uses enclosed gun washer). Notification i) Initial notification by 9 January 2010—FRO DAQ received on 3 February 2009, stating facility's applicability to 6H; notification indicated facility was in compliance. ii) Compliance status by 9 January 2011, plus 60 days—facility certified compliance within initial notification on 3 February 2009; also verified during inspection. iii) Annual change notification by 1 March—facility will comply if applicable. Recordkeeping i)' Records must be kept for minimum 5 years documenting the following: spray painter certification, filter efficiency, spray gun HVLP verification, notifications, deviation from requirements, and compliance assessment records—records verified during inspection; facility will comply with time frame for records retention. 5) Permit Stipulations a) A.2 2D .I I I I MAXIMUMACHIEVABLE CONTROL TECHNOLOGY—Applicability of GACT Subpart HHHHHH"Paint Stripping and Miscellaneous Surface Coating Operations at Area Sources" In Compliance—Facility uses no McCI; in 2010,total lead usage was .34 Ibs, total chromium usage was .02 lbs(both of these metals are in paint B62Y17); all painters were certified in spray gun equipment selection,techniques, maintenance, and environmental compliance on 4 August 2010.
