Lawhon & Associates, Inc. (L&A)
inspected the air emission sources, prepared air emission calculations,
and prepared the applicable Ohio
Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA) Permit to Install (PTI) and
Permit to Operate (PTO) applications for the Paint Spray Booth at the
Columbus Facility.
The process was reviewed to determine if the Potential to Emit (PTE)
of each criteria pollutant (VOC or PM). This information was then compared
with PTI regulations codified in Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) 3745-31
and PTO regulations codified in OAC 3745-35. The scope of work was designed
to reduce Crucial Air’s cost to determine the necessity for air
permits. Permits from the city building inspection offices and the EPA
were completed for the client.
