1) DIRECTIONS:
From FRO take Green Street to Gillespie and merge onto 195 BUS/301 S. Merge onto 301 S.,then take a
right onto NC 71. Continue to follow signs for NC 71. Merge onto HWY 74 W. and continue for 49 miles
to Wadesboro. From the intersection of HWY 74 and HWY 52 in Wadesboro,take Hwy 52 South and go
1 1/z miles to Country Club Road. Turn left and the entrance to building is about 50 yards on right hand side.
Enter 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 DISCRIPTION:
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
facility has requested that the Subpart 6H requirements be retained in the permit and has not requested
an exemption from the regulation for not using the target HAP.

5) INSPECTION CONFERENCE:
On 10 February 2022,I Mike Thomas of FRO DAQ arrived at Columbus McKinnon to conduct a
compliance inspection.I met with Sam Bowers,Manufacturing Engineer. We discussed the following:
a) Mr.Bowers verified the FACFINDER and informed me that Mr. Tefft has retired and that the company
has hired his replacement but he did not know that person's name or exactly when they would be starting.
In the interim,I have added Mr.Bowers as the Facility contact until additional contact information is
provided.
b) I inquired if any of the plant's operations had change. Mr. Bowers stated that their operations were the
same and their production levels were about the same as last year.

*For the last permit renewal the facility grouped all of the painting sources together and are now reporting the
total amount of paint used in gallons.
6) INSPECTION SUMMARY:
Mr.Bowers led me on a tour of the facility,which was operating. I observed the paint booths all of
which were clearly labeled, according to the permit Emission Source ID. All of the booths appeared to
be clean and well maintained.ES-SPR-9 and ES-SPR-14 were operating. I spoke with the operators of
each booth and they provided their filter logs which are kept outside of each booth. Each logbook has
entries going back more than two years.I checked each log and all had current entries.I noted when the
last filter changes were done.Magnahelics on all three appeared to be functioning properly and were
within the appropriate range compared to logbook readings. I observed no problems with any of the
paint booths.
