SECTION 8.NATURE OF BUSINESS i 8.1 Describe the nature of your business. BRP is a last foam foundry,which manufactures aluminum castings used as components for the manufacture of various finished products including outboard engine parts,fuel filter housings,tamping devices,etc. Molten aluminum is cast into foam molds,which are fabricated on-site from polystyrene beads,surrounded by sand. Z Aluminum castings are cleaned in a series of grinding and cleaning steps. High pressure blasting is used to remove m burrs and to shape the parts to requisite tolerances. On certain machines,the grinding process is aided with the use of a surfactant material. Finishing operations include impregnation,chrome conversion coating,and limited wet g Pg� machining. During impregnation,critical parts are exposed to pressure and porosity sealing compounds to seal z porous areas of some castings. Chrome conversion coating occurs in a series of process tanks in which aluminum castings are exposed to an alkaline wash,a deoxidizing bath,a chromic acid bath,and a polymer seal bath. Minimal machining is performed using a soluble oil cutting fluid and high speed tooling that is mounted in CNC machines. SECTION • • I 9.1 Does your facility use cooling water?

Minor modifications to operations(more related to air quality)have included or will include the following: Replaced the CD-1 bagfilter because the existing bagfilter was underrated and at the end of its service life.The replacement bagfilter is a Donaldson DFE 4-32 Dust Collector,which contains 32 ultra-web cartridge filters with a filter area of 8,128 square feet,a differential pressure meter,and an effective cleaning system. Venting the following insignificant natural gas-fired ovens through the building roof rather than exhausting inside the manufacturing building,both to meet National Fire Protection Association(NFPA)requirements and to improve indoor air quality: *ES-17,Heat Treat No.1 Solution Oven for Cast Line No.1,3.0 MMBtu/hr capacity; *ES-18,Heat Treat No.3 Solution Oven for Cast Line No.2,3.0 MMBtu/hr capacity; *ES-30,Age Oven No.1(AO-01),1.0 MMBtu/hr capacity; *ES-31,Age Oven No.2(AO-02),1.0 MMBtu/hr capacity;and *ES-38,Age Oven No.3(AO-03),1.0 MMBtu/hr capacity. Removed ES-47,Paint Spray Booth and Associated Bake Oven(3.0 MMBtu/hr capacity),since painting is done off-site by a vendor.As a result,this source has been removed from the facility. Added Dehumidifiers#1 and#2 for the Styrofoam Drying ovens. Replaced the Emergency Generator. Replaced the CD-16 bagfilter because the existing bagfilter was underrated and at the end of its service life. Removed ES-44,Boiler#2(14.7 MMBtu/hr capacity),since Boiler#1 is larger and sufficient for plant operation.

EPA Identification Number NPDES Permit Number Facility Name 110012281627 NCS000093 BRP US Inc. Summary of Best Management Practices (BMPs) utilized at BRP US Inc. The facility has provided structural and non-structural measures or practices to reduce the amount of pollution entering surface waters. Structural best management practices employed at the BRP facility include providing covers over bulk storage areas and secondary containment features. Catch basins are provided to improve stormwater flow throughout the facility. Non- structural best management practices include drainage ditches, semi-annual stormwater inspections,monitoring loading/unloading operations,sweeping,and good housekeeping procedures and inspections. A listing of the BMPs for the site is provided in the narratives and table below. Description of Storage, Loading, Dust Generating,and Waste Disposal Practices Bulk Storage All of the bulk above ground storage tanks (AST),totes, drums,and other storage containers are compatible with the products stored and the conditions of storage such as pressure and temperature. Totes and drums are stored either inside the buildings or inside the storage containment buildings located east of the production building. Three (3) 30,000-gallon propane tanks will not impact stormwater since the tanks are pressurized. Loading and Unloading The facility has a loading dock at the southeastern building wall and a shipping/receiving area at the northeastern building wall. The loading dock area is paved, and spill control equipment is located nearby. Facility personnel are equipped with internal communication equipment during all bulk or drum transfers. A propane unloading area will not impact stormwater since propane is a pressurized gas. Dust or Particulate Generation The facility has a total of six (6) dust collectors located along the northeastern building wall. One dust collector is associated with the aluminum casting lines;one associated with sand storage for each casting line (two lines); one for the regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO);one for the sand reclamation system; and one is associated with the shot blast machines and sand blast units. The facility also uses an RTO,which utilizes its own baghouse for the pouring,cooling, shakeout, and quench process. The area is routinely swept and inspected for particulates entering the stormwater system. Dust collectors and control of particulate emissions limit the particulates on the facility roof. The cooling tower,chemicals used,and containment area are monitored. Waste Disposal Practices All waste generated at this facility is segregated into non-hazardous or hazardous waste containers. All hazardous waste is collected into appropriate containers (drums are labeled and stored in the containment units). Non-hazardous waste is separated according to type and collected in approved containers located throughout the facility before disposal or recycling. The facility has one open trash roll-off,one enclosed trash compactor,one open scrap metal dumpster, one spent sand roll-off (under canopy),and one metal chip dumpster (under canopy). Miscellaneous Storage and Other Areas Miscellaneous items are stored under the canopy area and south of the production building. BMPs for employee parking areas include preparation and implementation of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SPPP) and training.
