Proposal details

This proposal is for an Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air & noise) 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 G W Metal Mining Inc., a plastic, steel and e-waste shredding and recycling facility, located in the City of Pembroke, Ontario.

The application includes all sources at the facility, including a natural gas boiler and six main processing lines for e-waste, plastic and cardboard materials, each with a dedicated dust collector. Emissions to the air from this facility include:

  • nickel,
  • cadmium,
  • particulate matter,
  • mercury,
  • lead,

The Environmental Compliance Approval with Limited Operational Flexibility (air & noise), 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 & noise). 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.
