Introduction Kiernan Structural Steel Ltd fabricates structural steel products at our factory at Carrigglass, Co Longford,

which is located in a rural setting about 4 Km from Longford Town, (National Grid Reference 216940E

278193N). The River Camlin and the adjacent Carrickglass Demesne, a Natural Heritage Area is located

300m south of the site.

The factory comprises of a fabrication shop of 3,500 sq m, a separate paint spray shop of 1,500 sq m, a

transport compound of 2,500 sq m and an outside steel holding area of 5 acres. Manufacturing processes

include shot blasting of steel, cutting, drilling, grinding and flame-cutting operations, welding and paint

spraying. Emissions from the plant include noise emissions from activities on site and air emissions from

paint spraying activities, solvent recovery and emissions from empty paint containers. There are no trade

effluent discharges and domestic effluent is discharged to a package septic tank system where surface run-

off is discharged to ground. Potable water is supplied from our own on-site borehole via a water treatment

system. A new attenuation pond and petrol interceptor has been added at the end of our drainage system.

Normal operating hours is from 8am to 5.30pm, Monday to Friday.

The company operates and maintains an IPPC licence (since 2009), covering paint spraying activities and

the safe storage of paint-related materials, reference the First Schedule of PoE Act 2004, Class 12.2.2,

description “The manufacture …of coating materials in processes with a capacity to make or use at least

10 tonnes per year of organic solvents….” Compliance to our licence conditions is demonstrated by the

operation of our emissions reduction scheme to achieve target emissions levels for VOC compounds and

the monitoring and maintenance of safe storage of paint-related materials.

The RBME risk category is rated at C1 level.

Environmental monitoring has been maintained during this period and we are able to report full

compliance with our solvent reduction scheme.

The Company has a documented procedure for our objectives, targets and management program. The

Company conducts our AER in conformance with our internal procedure, which addresses the

Environmental Management Program (EMP), internal management reviews, and covers corrective actions,

awareness and training, communications, maintenance and efficient process control.

The Company has established five environmental objectives in our EMP, namely

1. The maintenance of our VOC reduction program

2. The optimization of the spraying process

3. Ensuring water monitoring results are kept within limits and measures to reduce the likelihood of

pollution

4. The reclaim of C&D waste and maximization of recycling activities

5. Improvements in materials storage

Each objective has been set out individually with a start date, responsibility, the main program steps,

completed actions and the time frame for completion.

Infrastructure and Operation

In reply to the required conditions of the licence the Company ensures;

• Storm-water monitoring is maintained when fabrication activities take place within the factory.

• All oil, paint drums and suchlike materials are stored in bunded areas

• Spill kits are readily available to contain spillages

• The package sewage system is being regularly maintained and there is no trade effluent.

Emissions

The Company has monitored all emissions specified in the conditions of our licence.

There have been no complaints on behalf of any member of the public in the last year and no smells,

odours or noise emissions have been noted that would impair or interfere with the environment outside the

Company site.

There have been no recorded spillages of materials, which would have any adverse effect on aquatic life.

The Company monitors our annual performance regarding the VOC Reduction Scheme. The spreadsheet

in Appendix 3 indicates the total amount of paint used by type during 2014 and the usage of VOCs has

been calculated. The results show that we were within 9% of our allowed targets and therefore it

indicates our compliance with the requirements of the Reduction Scheme.

The reduction of fugitive emissions is addressed in our management programme.

Compliance Declaration Regarding the Risk Phases in Paint Systems

The Company has not used materials that carry the risk phases R40, R45, R46, R49, R60 and R61.

The Company has not used materials that contain halogenated VOCs; assigned the risk phase R40.

The Company has not used materials that contain lead chromate, which are assigned the risk phases R61

or R62.

Solvent Management Plan

The weekly usage of solvents was calculated by weight (kg).

Referring to the mass balance equation in Appendix 1 the significant emission is due to extraction by

the two fans situated at A2-1 and A2-2. The flow rate from these fans has already been calculated and

using the concentration figures found in the extracted air the amount of emissions was calculated. The

weekly amount of VOC generated was 502 kg while the weekly emissions through the extraction fans

were 84.8 kg. Weekly fugitive emissions were 417 kg.

Emission Reduction Plan Potential customers will be requested to select complaint coatings for their projects.

Personnel responsible for selecting and purchasing paints and paint products have been made aware and

have been trained in their responsibilities to ensure compliance with target emissions. Production

personnel have been made aware of the best techniques of paint spraying and the efficient use of

materials.

Resource Use and Energy Efficiency

Raw Material, Intermediates and Products Solvent-based paints, supplied mainly by a selection of the main paint suppliers, and thinners are stored in

two concrete bunded areas. The bunds are vented to prevent the build up of potentially noxious and

dangerous gases. The amounts of paints and thinners are shown in the spreadsheet in Appendix 3. The

total amount of paint used during the year was 70,000 liters. Paint types consist of single and two-pack

primers, single and two pack build/finish coats, mostly of zinc rich epoxy types. Intumescent and the

associated primers were employed where fire protection was required. Particular customers required

some special finishes. Thinners are mainly used for cleaning purposes and are recovered and reclaimed

in our distillation process.

Steel usage per annum

The Table below shows the annual change in the tonnage of steel (hot-rolled) used annually.

Appendix 1 - Solvent Mass Balance Equation

Referring to the designations used within Section 6 of the Solvent Regulations:

F= I1-O1-O5-O6-O7-O8

Where: F=Fugitive Emissions

I1=The quantity of organic solvents or their quantity in preparations purchased which

are used as input into the process in the time frame over which the balance is being

calculated.

O1=Emissions in waste gas

O5= Organic solvents and/or organic compounds lost due to chemical or physical reactions (including for example those which are destroyed, e.g. by incineration or other waste gas or waste water treatments, or captured, e.g. by absorption, as long as they are not counted under O6, O7 or O8).

O6 = Organic solvents contained in collected waste O7 = Organic solvents, or organic solvents in preparation, which are sold or are intended to be sold as a commercially valuable product.

O8 = Organic solvents contained in preparations recovered for reuse but not as input

into their process, as long as not counted under O7.

I1 = 502.15 kg VOC / week

O1 = [(A2-1 flow) x (A2-1 VOC conc.) + (A2-2 flow) x (A2-2 VOC conc.)] kg/week = 46.4 + 38.4

kg/week kg/week = 84.8 kg/week

Where the average VOC concentration for

• A2-1 was 168.2 mg/m^3 and

• A2-2 was 115.8 mg/m^3.

The average flow rate for

• A2-1 was 7067.1 m^3/hr and

• A2-2 was 8507.6 m^3/hr.

• Results are based on a 39 hour standard working week.

O5 = 0

O6 = 0

O7 = 0

O8 = 0

F = 502.15 – 84.8

= 417.35 kg/week.

Therefore fugitive emissions during 2014 averaged 417 kg/week.
