Safety Equipment: Safety glasses are required. Hearing protection and steel toe shoes are recommended

Safety Issues: This is a maximum security correctional facility(prison) for men. The inspector will be in
contact with inmates in the woodworking and wood finishing areas of the plant. Therefore, it is
recommended that only male DAQ staff inspect this facility. Also,the Department of Corrections requires
a photo ID to enter the facility. The ID must be a valid driver's license,not a DENR ID Card.No cell
phones,pagers,weapons,knives,metal objects(except clip boards), etc. are allowed in the facility. The
inspector is subject to search prior to entering the facility. The facility contact should be called prior to
the inspection to assure that they will be at the plant.
Facility Latitude/Longitude Coordinates: A review of the"Facilities Regulated by Air Quality"on the
DAQ website indicated the facility's location is accurate and matches the facility's latitude and longitude
coordinates listed in IBEAM.No changes to the latitude and longitude coordinates of this facility are
needed in IBEAM.
Email: The email addresses of each contact were verified.No changes were needed in IBEAM.
Inspection•
1. The purpose of this site visit was to conduct a routine air quality compliance evaluation. The
facility is a maximum-security prison that employs inmates to manufacture wooden furniture for
state agency use. Mr. Tass Jansen is the furniture plant manager. He should be contacted by email
or telephone to arrange an inspection.No cell phones are allowed inside the facility.
2. Facility Contact Information:
The contact information in IBEAM was verified. Changes were made to the Authorized and
Technical contact phone numbers.

3. Compliance history file review:
No problems have been noted in the last five years by DAQ,prior to this inspection. The current
compliance status is discussed in the following sections.
4. Source Observations:
This facility has a baghouse(3,957 square feet of filter area)to control the emissions from the
woodworking operations. The facility also has three dry-filer paint spay booths. I did not observe
any visible emissions or fugitive dust from these sources. The facility is keeping a record of
maintenance on the baghouse(dust system)via receipts from the NC E-Procurement system.
During the 2018-2021 timeframe,many upgrades and maintenance activities were logged;
including,but not limited to, a new Magnahelic gauge being installed, a new rotary air lock being
installed, and socks being replaced on the baghouse. The facility uses an outside vendor,
Associated Metal Works out of Harmony,NC to conduct their annual internal inspection of the
baghouse system. An inspection form is filled out by the company and kept on file by Mr. Jansen.
The most recent inspections were conducted April 20,2021,November 16,2020,April 13,2020,
and November 18,2019.

5. Registration Qualification:
Based on information in the registration application,previous emissions inventories, and previous
permit reviews,the actual emissions from the woodworking operations and air makeup units are
very small and will add less than one ton to the facility-wide actual aggregate emissions.
In 2015, 81,898 bd/ft of lumber was processed, and 2,310 gallons of finish product was used. The
2,310 gallons of finish product amounted to 5.84 tons of VOC's,which was used in determining
the registration status. Using the highest throughput numbers over the past three years, a VOC
emission rate of 2,818 gallons of finish product(22%increase from 2015)can be assumed),
which would amount to 7.12 tons. This increase in production and product usage should not bring
the facility over the 25 tons per year cumulative emission threshold to require a permit.
Therefore,this facility appears to be eligible to continue as a registered facility.

Lumber Registration Number Material Registration Number

2020 65,818 20%Decrease 1,807 22%Decrease
6. NESHAP/NSPS Review:
The facility has no generators, fire pumps,boilers, or gasoline storage tanks. Therefore,the
facility is not subject to NESHAP Subpart 4Z,NESHAP Subpart 6J, or NESHAP 6C.
7. Compliance determination:
Based on my observations,this facility appeared to be in compliance with the air quality rules
(213 .0202—record keeping; 2D .0512-particulates from wood products finishing plants 2D
.052 1-visible emissions; 2D .0535 —excess emissions; 2D .0540-fugitive dust emissions; 2D
.0958-work practice standards)outlined in the registration at the time of this inspection.
