Proposal details

This proposal is for an Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air) which replaces all the current Environmental Compliance Approvals for air at this facility and includes the addition of new or historically unapproved sources for all emissions from S.B.&A. Foundry Limited, a manufacturer of brass, bronze, and aluminum alloy castings, located at 550 York Road in the City of Guelph, Ontario.

The application includes all sources at the facility, including manufacturing operations such as raw material handling, alloy molding and melting processes, transferring and cooling processes, and cleaning and finishing of alloy casting operations. A ventilation system captures and conveys emissions to a dust collector before exhausting to the atmosphere.

Emissions to the air from this facility include:

  • nickel
  • benzene
  • manganese
  • aniline
  • silicates amorphous (hydrated)

The Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air), when issued permits modifications to the facility subject to limits on operational flexibility that include a production limit for the facility to be specified on the Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air). The limited operational flexibility conditions have an expiry date. The company will be required to make an application for amendment at that time to renew these conditions.
