Air Emissions Permit for Metal Recycling Facility - Greater Napanee
Official title: Maritime House Metals Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
Maritime House Metals Inc. wants approval to operate a metal extraction and recycling facility in Greater Napanee, Ontario. The facility would emit chlorine, ammonia, nickel, and other substances into the air. This permit would replace existing approvals and add new emission sources including furnaces, evaporators, and storage tanks.

What Could Change
