Over the course of these remaining seven units, we will be developing a course project. We will do a single section of the course project in every unit, completing one section of the course project in each unit, and then adding the subsequent work in the following unit. This unit work will be in the form of mini projects, and in Unit VIII, you will submit the entire project. Throughout the course, your instructor will provide you with feedback on every unit you submit; therefore, it is important to implement the feedback you receive in the upcoming unit(s). You will be required to integrate an onlineresource in your final submission. The Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery Reference Center is a good online database for this course project.
Our course project will be to develop a document titled A Permit By Rule (PBR) Application for an Interior Surface Coating Facility that will serve as a simulation of our work as a contract environmental engineer to a small vehicle body shop located in the state of Texas.
The Scenario:
You have been contracted with a vehicle body repair shop named Texas Car Body Repairs, USA to engineer and write a state (Texas) air permit application for a carefully designed interior lining (painting) facility. According to Texas state law sand EPA laws, the facility must have an air permit before construction begins. Once the facility is completed, the construction air permit will then become the operational air permit for the facility. As a result, your client wants the air permit application to automatically align the interior surface coating facility into operational compliance with state and federal air quality laws. Consequently, it is extremely important for you to write the air permit application to meet the air permit criteria using the state guidance document and considering the equipment and chemicals already planned for the facility operations.
Your client has presented you with the following specifications regarding the facility operations plan:
Interior Liner Coating Material 10 gallons coating/vehicle 2 gallons of solvent/vehicle Vehicle Lining Application Apply interior liners to two(2)vehicles/day Work five (5)hours/day and four (4)days/week Vehicle Lining Curing Cure interior liners of two(2)vehicles/day Work five (5)hours/day and four (4)days/week
The client has designed an interior coating spray painting system that allows the interior of a vehicle to be coated (such as for new vehicles, or vehicles being restored after fire damage or other catastrophic interior damage). The operations will involve a stripped-down vehicle body being brought into the facility's shop. The shop is a steel building with a finished concrete floor and a paint booth for each vehicle. The vehicle will be placed in the spray booth. The booth will be opened at one end of the booth for makeup air. The exhaust air will flow through an exhaust chamber at the other end of the vehicle (see Cross-Draft Automotive Spray Booth in Appendix F of the TCEQ Regulatory Guidance Document). For each vehicle, once the liner application operations are completed the forced curing (drying) operations will immediately commence.
Instructions
1. Closely read the Required Reading assignment from your textbook, Appendix B and Appendix K of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Regulatory Guidance document (Click here to access the document), and the Unit Lesson within the Study Guide. Consider reading the Suggested Reading.
2. Using APA style (title page, abstract page, body with level 1 headings, and a reference page) for a research paper, begin drafting a proposal document. You will add to this document in every unit with another level 1 heading.
3. Make your Unit II work your first level 1 heading titled "General Considerations for Operation," and describe thescenario that is presented above. You may find it convenient to present the tabulated information in your General Considerations section of the permit for future reference throughout the rest of the course. This submission (and every submission through Unit VII) needs to be a minimum of at least a one page in length, double-spaced.
