Air Emissions Permit for Aluminum Casting Facility in Huron Park
Official title: Gnutti Carlo Canada Ltd. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
Gnutti Carlo Canada wants to consolidate and update its air emissions permits for an aluminum casting factory in Huron Park, Ontario. The facility releases nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and other chemicals from furnaces, die-casting equipment, and machining centers. This new permit would replace existing approvals and add previously unapproved emission sources.
Why This Matters
Live near Huron Park? This factory releases nitrogen oxides and particulate matter into the air you breathe. The permit would also allow previously unapproved emission sources to operate legally. If you have concerns about air quality in South Huron, now's the time to speak up.
What Could Change
If approved, Gnutti Carlo would get a single consolidated air permit with production limits. The company could operate emission sources that weren't previously approved. The permit includes an expiry date, requiring future renewal applications.
Key Issues
- Should previously unapproved emission sources be permitted to operate?
- Are the proposed production limits adequate to protect local air quality?
- What are the potential impacts of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter emissions on nearby residents?
