Air Emissions Permit for Litens Automotive Parts Facility in Vaughan
Official title: 730143 Ontario Inc., 730144 Ontario Inc., and Magna Powertrain Inc. operating as Litens Automotive Partnership - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
Litens Automotive Partnership wants to consolidate all its air emission permits into one new approval. The facility in Vaughan makes automotive parts using welding, cutting, and grinding. Emissions include particulate matter, iron, manganese, and chromium compounds.
Why This Matters
Live or work near Rowntree Dairy Road in Vaughan? This permit controls what pollutants this factory can release into your air. The emissions include metals and chemicals that affect local air quality.
What Could Change
If approved, Litens gets a single consolidated air permit with built-in flexibility to modify operations within set limits. The permit will include production caps and will need renewal when flexibility conditions expire.
Key Issues
- Should the facility receive a consolidated air permit replacing all existing approvals?
- Are the proposed emission limits adequate to protect local air quality?
- Should historically unapproved emission sources be included in the new permit?
