Inspection Observations: On February 22, 2022, I (Bob Graves) arrived at the
facility. No dust or odors were observed offsite of the facility's property. I met with
the facility contact, James Hamrick, Operations Manager. Mr. Hamrick gave a tour of
the facility and access to records. The facility was operating on the day of inspection.
All woodworking equipment are connected to the dust collection system and
appeared to be in good condition. I observed the bagfilter while operating and found
that it is currently venting to the inside of the building. The bagfilter's duct work and
dust loading trailer appeared to be in good condition. The dry filter paint booth was
not in operation. The spray booth filters are changed about every two weeks.
Based on my conversation with Mr. Hamrick, we discussed the following:
a) The facility's business was increasing in 2021, but has been slower so far in 2022.
We also discussed their upcoming permit renewal.
Process Description:
Various tools including a cnc, table saws, and sanders are used to manufacture
custom cabinets.
