Air Pollution Control Discharge Permit Audit & Source Testing – Adec Manufacturing Facility, Newberg, Oregon (February-Nov. 2010)

Creekside completed a comprehensive evaluation of the A-DEC, Inc. manufacturing processes and associated potential to emit air pollutants based on chemical use, production rates, and pollution control equipment for your Newberg, Oregon operations. The purpose of this project was to evaluate the A-dec operations for compliance with Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Air Contaminant Discharge Permit (ACDP) rules. Based on our calculations, we determined that A-dec did not exceed 2,500 metric tons of carbon dioxide emission equivalents per year. We were also able to demonstrate that gasoline throughput at its onsite fuel station is always below 10,000 gallons per month. As a result, A-dec no longer needs a simple ACDP permit and no longer conducts onsite monitoring.
