Proposal details
This proposal is for an amendment to the Limited Operational Flexibility for an Environmental Compliance Approval (air & noise) No. 5888-BVFRBU for Kap Paper Inc., a thermo-mechanical pulping (TMP) newsprint mill in Kapuskasing, Ontario.
The emission sources from the manufacturing and associated processes that discharge to the air include the operation of natural gas fired comfort heating equipment, on-site vehicle fueling, diesel emergency generators, general ventilation, and waste water treatment. The amendment includes removal of emergent and non-emergent diesel generators, removal of sawmill operations, addition of wood ash storage area and an ownership change. Emissions to the air from this facility include:
- arsenic,
- benzene,
- benzo(a)pyrene,
- chloroform, and
- cobalt
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.
