When EPD was here many years ago, this place was called “Southern Industrial Chemicals Inc.” But it’s still run by the same man. Wayne Chandler. The railroad people CSX complained about chemicals, dust and fumes coming out the back of the building. They are still coming out of the back of the building. EPD ordered him to get a fume scrubber and a dust collector. He did that. As soon as EPD signed off on it he took them out. The remains of the fume scrubber is still out there. The dust collector is here but has not been in service for approximately 20 years. This company blends liquid and some powdered products containing Chromic Acid. The records show that batches can contain as much as 15% by weight of Chromic Acid and more than 200 Tons of Chromic Acid have been used here. With no fume scrubbers and no dust collection. Where is that dust going?  Nickel metal is also used here to react Nickel salts. This solution ran out the back door and into the city sewer in the back parking lot. The evidence is as plane as day if you looked. I am sending a video of them exhausting Nitric Acid / Hydrochloric Acid mixture fumes directly into the air in the back lot. And there is more…if you come I will show you. I will try to send the video in another email. I can only attach 3MB.
