The methodology is oullined in the Internalional Fire Code. The IFC outlines the low <br /> material levels that trigger a hazardous material permit. Progressively higher levels of hazardous materials (both by <br /> quantity and hazard class) can Irigger progressively greater(acility construction standards. These higher construction <br /> standards are typically called "H" occupancies and their construclion requirements are specified in lhe building, <br /> mechanical, plumbing and other codes. <br /> Tlie code mandated process starts with an Hazardous Materials Inventory Statement(HMIS, See Table 1). Its format is <br /> suggested by the IFC but enhanced in Ihis report lo include lhe material's faciiiry location and hazard communication <br /> standard designations. Your personnel can also use Ihe HMIS for on•going compliance purposes. The HMIS contains <br /> tlie hazard classifications for each material. The hazard classifications are then consolidated and compared to the <br /> regulatory limils(See Table 2). <br /> Overview <br /> The exempt limits cited on Table 2 are (or each control area. The manufacturing poAion of the building contains all of <br /> lhe subject materiais and is one conlrol araa.The vast majority of the hazardous materiais are combuslible liquids used <br /> lo cool and lubricate machine tools and the parts during fabrication. Small quantities of adhesives, sealants and <br /> solvenls are used on benches to assemble attachmeNs and rods. <br /> � sizabte by-product (not a wasle due to its recycle value) is the chips and turnings removed during machining. The <br /> residual liquid on the chips is partialiy removed in a centri(uge. The centrifuge liquid extract, floor mop water, waste <br /> �valer with soluble coolant and olher small waste water voiumes will be chemicaliy treated in a batch tank. The treated <br /> w:iter will be discharged to the sanilary sewer and the separaled organics sent off site for waste fuel blending.The chip <br /> colleclion, centri(uge, batch ireatment and recyclable material storage area is in lhe norihwest comer of the building. <br /> Unit Processes and Materials Exompt from Hazardous Material Facility Permit <br /> Painl booth—The facility's paint booth is a small, bench top, touch up type.The maximum part spray area is well under <br /> nine (9) syuare feet. Therefore, IFC 1504.2 exception number 2 references IFC 1504.9 and ihe painting operation is <br /> not regulated as a paint boolh under Ihe IFC. The paint spray volume is well under one pint per day. Therefore, per IFC <br /> 105.G.33, an operational permit is nol required for Ihis process. <br /> Compressed Gases — The facility lias three 140 cubic foot cylinders each containing argon, argon/carbon dioxide, <br /> nitrogen and one 100 cubic foot conlainer of nitrogen. IFC Table 105.6.8 indicates the facility permit threshotd is 6,000 <br /> cubic feet. Therefore, these four cylinders are permit exempt. An oxygenlacetylene weiding set and forklift propane <br /> cylinders are not exempt and are covered in ihe HMIS. <br />
