Remind them to include temperature on pH samples. Southern Tool & Die: • Permit modified in 2021 including the same modified parameters as Erico.. • A TTO test was performed in 2019. • They do not have a pretreatment system. Southern Tool has a contract with MEritech. Meritech performs periodic sampling with their own equipment. • Flow meter was relocated to an appropriate area. The result was a marked increase in accuracy of flow data that indicated flow from Southern Tool was less than previously recorded (and subsequently was causing to violate daily limits). Thermal Metal: • COC issues discovered during audit in 2021 have been resolved. Technicians from Pace previously insisted that the facility staff did not need to sign COC forms. Samples are now being properly relinquished by Thermal Metal staff. • Permit was modified in 2020 including the same modified parameters as Erico. • Thermal Metal has a TOMP. They performed a TTO test in 2019 because they did not submit their certification letter. • Spill control plan was updated on 11/2021.
