Pre-inspection Conference: On December 10, 2021, I, Bob Graves with NCDAQ
met with Brent Brent Keller, Owner. Based on my conversation with Mr. Keller, we
discussed the following:
a) FACFINDER has been updated to reflect Brent Keller is the new owner of
Foothills Woodturning (old business name was Carolina Leg Company).
b) I discussed that Mr. Jeff Keller(Brent Keller's brother) previously had a NC
air permit until 2017. In 2017 the facility was exempted from permitting but
still subject to regulations of the woodworking industry. I explained which
rules apply such as 2D.521 for visible emissions and 2D.540 for fugitive dust.
I also recommended to Brent Keller to begin and maintain a cyclone logbook
for their dust collection system. Mr. Keller said he already keeps a cyclone
inspection and maintenance logbook for the cyclone.
c) We discussed the exempt status and future inspections. DAQ will come by
each year and visit to see if the facility may need a permit, or if any new
sources have been added that might affect their compliance status.
Process Description:
This facility produces component parts for the furniture industry using saws,
lathes, sanders, molders and other woodworking equipment. The woodworking
equipment is controlled by two cyclones in parallel and collects dust to a
collection house.

Inspection:
a) I inspected the woodworking process and found that each piece of equipment was
controlled by the dust collection system. Pipes and ductwork appeared to be in
good condition with no apparent leaks or holes.
b) I observe the cyclones not in operation. The dust storage bin is emptied at least
once per week.
c) Insignificant boiler, I-B-1, has been removed from site.
