Ovens — All ovens a) are electrically heated, b) do not process significant quantities of flammable or combustible <br /> materials on their parts and c)are not mechanicaliy vented. The same properties apply to one annealing furnace with a <br /> quench tank. Therefore, ail ovens and the furnace are defined by IFC 2102 as "Furnace Class C". As such, IFC <br /> Chapter 21, Industrial Ovens, does not contain applicabie hazardous material related requirements. Your architect and <br /> operaling personnel shoutd be aware of ihe mechanical code and operating requirements of IFC Chapter 21. <br /> Permitted Hazardous Material that is Below Control Area Exempt Limits <br /> Table 2 indicates Ihat all hazardous material categories, except highly toxic as add! ,sed in the next section, are below <br /> iheir exempt limits for a sprinklered building (e.g., exempt limit increase for cabinet storage not included unless <br /> otherwise noted). Therefore, lhere are su�cient hazardous materials to require a facility hazardous material permit but <br /> insufficient quanlities to require a hazardous occupancy rating(e.g., existing"F"occupancy rating is suHicient). <br /> Hazardous Material Permitted and Above Control Area Exempt Limits <br /> Metal Finishinq — Table 2, Hazardous Material Quantity Compared to Exempt Limits, indicates the highly loxic <br /> category is above lhe control area's exempt limits. Table 1, Hazardous Material Inventory Statement, indicates <br /> nearly ail of the highly toxic designated material is chromium and cadmium bearing metal finishing soiutions. These <br /> lwo metals are susaected carcinogens and are very conservatively categorized as"Highiy Toxic".Their designation <br /> is based on 100% concentration data while their actual concentralion is so tow(i.e., most of lhe chromium is about <br /> 1°/a) Ihat designalion dala does not exist. Ingeslion is the hazardous exposure route (e.g., not inhalation or dermal) <br /> and, therefore, it is an extremely unlikely exposure route to the public or first responders. Given these mitigating <br /> circumstances (i.e., very conservative designation, very low conceniralion and unlikely exposure route), an "N <br /> Occupancy"would not provide any risk reduction over the curreiit"F Occupancy". <br /> Other Required Environmental Permits <br /> Citv o( Everett Industrial Waste Waler—Tyee will discharge quench water and trealed oily waste water to the sanitary <br /> sewer. A discharge permit application and Professional Engineer's Report conforming to WAC 173-240 will be <br /> submitled to Ihe City of Everelt Indusirial Waste Water group. <br /> Storm Water — Tyee will nol have slorm water exposed to induslrial activities. Therefore, the company will appiy to <br /> Washington State Department of Ecology for a "Conditional Exclusion From Storm Water Permiting Based on "No <br /> Exposure"o(Industrial Activities to Storm Water". <br /> Hazardous Waste — Tyee will file a "Nolification of Hazardous Waste Activities" with the Department of Ecology. <br /> Ecology will Ihen issue lhe company a StatelEPA I.D. number. It is used for manifesting and reporting hazardous waste <br /> shipment and disposai. The company is Iikeiy exempt from this requiremenl but it is highly recommended that the <br /> company use Ihis system for waste accountability purposes. <br /> Municipal Solid Waste — Certain non-hazardous induslrial waste streams may require conditional approval from the <br /> Snoliomish County 5olid� Waste Division for disposal lo Ihe municipal waste stream. These waste streams, if any,will <br /> be identified and made known to Ihe County.A County disposal authorization may be issued to Tyee. <br /> Committed Plans <br /> Comoosite Tube Cultinq -The company plans to start cutting a small quanlity of graphite composite strucWral tubes in <br /> February 2008. The process was evalualed for combustible dust generalion with respect to possibly requiring a <br /> hazardous material occupancy. The generated dust quantity is well below lhe hazardous material exempt limits. <br /> Therefore, an "H" Occupancy is not required. The system design is not comptete at lhis lime and not retiected on the <br /> altached HMIS. Your operations and engineering personnel are aware of the dust collection requirements. Specifically, <br /> IFC Chapter 13, Combustibie Dust-Producing Operalions, references consideration of ignition sources, housekeeping <br /> practices and NFPA Standards 69 (Explosion Prevention) and 654 (Manufacturing, Processing and Handling of <br /> Combustible Particulate Solids). These considerations shall be included in the system design, operations and, if <br /> required, permit amendment. <br /> Hazardous Material Management Plan <br /> Prior to occupancy, the company will complete an HMMP. <br />
