No attachments for this document.

At the July 11 Council meeting, Councilors were notified by the Georgia

Environmental Protection Division (GAEPD)that Golden Foundry & Machine Company

had applied for air quality permit. The permit would allow the company to add

an additional induction furnace which would increase particulate matter

emissions by 2.48 tons per year and NOx emissions by 0.33 tons per year and

replace an existing scrap preheating conveyor.

As requested by Council, Mr. Ron Meither of the GAEPD was contacted to

determine if this granting of this permit would have any significant impact on

the city's air quality standards. Mr. Meither stated that granting the permit

would not have any significant impact on our air quality and that it should not

affect our overall ratings. At this time, no additional comments are required

towards this permit.
