Dear Mr. Murphy:

On December 4, 2009, Sherry Slone and I of the Ohio EPA Division of HazardousWaste Management conducted an inspection of Mika Metal Fabricating (Mika Metal)located at 4530 Hamann Parkway, Willoughby, Ohio. We met with Jack Grootegoed,and I have talked with you since the inspection regarding Mika Metal's processes andwastes. One purpose of the inspection was to determine if Mika Metal was incompliance with Ohio's hazardous waste and used oil laws as found in Chapter 3734 ofthe Ohio Revised Code (ORC) and Chapter 3745 of the Ohio Administrative Code(OAC). Please see the attached Process and Waste Summary chart for myunderstanding of this facility's operations.

This letter will document any violations and concerns found and outline what you needto do to correct them. A written response to these issues is required within 30 days.

1. OAC rule 3745-52-11 - Hazardous waste determination.This rule requires that any person who generates a waste must determine if thatwaste is a hazardous waste.

We have talked regarding this determination for the waste from the laser cuffingoperation and from the Time Saver (grain finisher and deburrer). Please sendme your determinations as to whether either of these are a hazardous waste.

2. OAC rule 3745-273-13 (D) - Universal waste lamp containers.This rule requires universal waste lamps to be in closed containers or packagesthat are structurally sound and adequate to prevent breakage.

Mika Metal violated this rule by having waste fluorescent lamps that were not in aclosed container or package. Please correct this violation and providedocumentation of that to me.

3. OAC rule 3745-273-14 (E) - Universal waste lamp labeling.

This rule requires that containers of universal waste lamps be labeled asUniversal Waste - Lamps, Waste Lamps, or Used Lamps.

Mika Metal violated this rule by not having its waste lamps labeled as required.Please correct this violation and provide documentation of that to me.

4. OAC rule 3745-273-16 - Employee training for handlers of universal waste.This rule requires that employees who manage universal waste be informed ofproper handling and emergency procedures for that universal waste.

Mika Metal violated this rule as shown by the two previous violations. Pleaseinform all employees that manage universal waste of these rules, including thetwo cited above.

5. OAC rule 3745-273-15(A) - Universal waste accumulation time limits.This rule allows the accumulation of universal waste for no longer than one yearunless it is solely for the purpose of accumulation of such quantities to facilitateproper recovery or treatment.

You told me on the phone that you plan to ship your waste fluorescent lampssoon. Please send me a copy of the paperwork when these are shipped. As analternative to this you may send me a copy of the paperwork for when they werelast shipped and/or a description of why they need to be accumulated for longerthan one year.

6. OAC rule 3745-279-22(C) - Used oil labels.This rule requires containers and above-ground tanks for used oil to be labeledor marked clearly with the words Used Oil.

Mika Metal violated this rule by having containers of used oil that were notlabeled as used oil. Please correct this violation and provide documentation ofthat to me.

Another purpose of the inspection was to look for ways you may be able to reduce yourwaste generation, conserve energy, and save money. Some suggestions regarding thisare below:

Most of your plant seems to have fluorescent lighting with tubes (also called lamps)having a diameter of 1.5 inches. These are called T12 lamps. There are more efficientlighting options including fluorescent lamps with smaller diameters, such as, T8 and T5lamps. The energy cost savings from a replacement of your lighting may have a short

capital payback period. You may also be able to get better lighting and lessmaintenance time changing lamps while still saving energy. I can get you resourcedocuments regarding this if you like. You may want to contact an energy conservationand/or lighting contractor. A list of some of these from a local organization's business tobusiness directory is enclosed. You can also find it at: E4S Sustainable Business toBusiness Directory, http://www.e4s.org/content/resource energy efficiency.asp.

There are various funding options for environmental projects. For example, a taxdeduction of up to $1.80 per square foot is available to owners or designers of new orexisting commercial buildings that save at least 50% of the heating and cooling energyof a building that meets ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2001. Partial deductions of up to $.60per square foot can be taken for measures affecting any one of three building systems:the building envelope, lighting, or heating and cooling systems. These tax deductionsare available for systems placed in service from January 1, 2006, through December31, 2013. More information regarding this can be found at:http://wwwirs.gov/irb/2006-26 IRB/arll.htmlMore information regarding other funding options can be found at:http://epa.ohio.gov/ocapp/funding.aspx

Other energy savings can be less technical. For example, we saw one of your big,outdoor lights that was on during the day light hours.

Mika Metal operates 6 tanks in its cleaning, iron phosphating, and sealing process. Ibelieve at least some of these have heated solutions in them. Some of them haveinsulation on the walls of the tanks but, the insulation is in bad condition and some ismissing. I have enclosed the Heated Process Tanks and Piping section of the followingdocument: Metal Finisher's Technical Supplement, 2000http://www.ecw.org/prod/319-2.pdf.

You may want to review this and consider tank covers and/or repair of the side wallinsulation in order to save money by reducing the energy needed to maintain thesolution temperature. As you can see in the document, much more heat is lost throughthe surface of an uncovered tank as opposed to the tank walls.

Mika Metal may have opportunities to start or enhance its recycling program for wastepallets and cardboard. For example, some pallets and cardboard were seen in thetrash bin and roll-off box that were outside. Recycling these items will save naturalresources and energy and may also save you money. Two lists are enclosed that showsome of the facilities that recycle cardboard and pallets.
