Hello,

Regarding the TRIPLE M Metals Scrap Yard – Provincial Air Permit Application, I question some of the modelled air emission results summarized in the companies report to the province.

I request that the provincial Ministry of Environment require the company to actually
MONITOR (measure) air pollution levels from the facility rather than just estimating using a computer
model.

There are multiple sources of manganese in the industrial core of Hamilton, ON and the Ministry of Environment needs to consider the cumulative impact of all of these sources in order to properly protect human health and the environment.

RE: Noise Impacts, establishing required heights for ‘storage piles’ does not constitute proper noise abatement. ideally, the facility’s operations should be restricted to the hours between 7am and 11pm in order to address noise impacts in the area. Finally, I request that the Ministry of
Environment add a condition to the company’s air & noise permit that formalizes these operational
restrictions
