Air Emissions Permit Amendment for Central Wire Industries - Perth
Official title: Central Wire Industries Ltd. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
Central Wire Industries wants to add new equipment to their wire-drawing factory in Perth, Ontario. The changes include a new furnace and cleaning system, plus better pollution controls. The company also needs to renew their production limits.
Why This Matters
Live or work near this factory on North Street in Perth? This permit controls what chemicals can be released into the air you breathe. The facility emits nitrogen oxides and industrial solvents like trichloroethylene.
What Could Change
If approved, the factory can install a new natural gas furnace and strand anneal cleaner. New dust collectors and welding fume extractors would be added. The facility's production limits would be renewed for another term.
Key Issues
- Should the factory be allowed to add a new natural gas furnace and cleaning equipment?
- Are the proposed emission controls adequate for the expanded operations?
- Should the facility's production limits be renewed?
