Application Tracking No. 412137

Application for an Air Discharge Permit under The Provisions of the Environmental Management Act.

Univar Solutions Canada Ltd. (Univar) at 9800 Van Horne Way, Richmond, BC V6X 1W5 intends to submit an application to the Director to request authorization of the discharge of air emissions from a new light chemical distribution center and transload facility (Univar Solutions Center and Transload Facility at 34499 McClary Avenue (‘the Project’). The air emissions are anticipated to occur from bulk storage and acid storage tanks, transloading activities of products from rail cars and trucks, and repackaging of solvent and acids from bulk into various size packaging. Products to be stored at the Project include glycols, solvents, antifreeze, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, peroxide, and caustic soda.

The land upon which the facility will be situated and where the discharges will occur, is located at 34499 McClary Avenue (Lot 6 Section 11 Township 16 New Westminster District Plan 37683) within the City of Abbotsford, British Columbia. The coordinates are 49.0310 N latitude, 122.2691 W longitude.

The ranges of the annual average rates and the hourly maximum rates of air emissions discharged from this facility are provided below, with emissions occurring in three separate scenarios: storage tank vents, loading and unloading, and packaging. The operating period for this facility will be Monday through Friday, from 7am-6pm. Air emissions released from storage tank vents will be continuous (24 hours per day, 7 days a week) with loading, unloading, and packaging activities occurring during facility operating hours, for approximately two hours per week for each applicable product. Three wet scrubbers located in the northeast area of the Site will be used to reduce emissions of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid from the tank vents and from packaging. The air emissions from the facility are divided among five different locations, with four of them located one or more storeys above grade. The other location is on ground level at the truck loading/unloading and transloading station.

For acid/caustic products, the annual average emission rate ranges from 1.55E-09 g/s to 5.82E-06 g/s, for sulphuric acid and nitric acid respectively. The hourly maximum emission rate ranges from 3.54E-07 g/s to 6.72E-03 g/s, again for sulphuric acid and nitric acid respectively.

For oxidizers, the annual average emission rate ranges from 4.62E-06 g/s to 6.37E-06 g/s, for hydrogen peroxide. The hourly maximum emission rate ranges from 5.35E-04 g/s to 3.59E-03 g/s, again for hydrogen peroxide.

For solvents, the annual average emission rate ranges from 3.15E-07 g/s to 2.46E-03 g/s, for ethylene glycol and ethyl acetate respectively. The hourly maximum emission rate ranges from 2.64E-05 g/s to 5.48E+00 g/s, again for ethylene glycol and ethyl acetate respectively.

For alcohols, the annual average emission rate ranges from 2.68E-05 g/s to 8.88E-03 g/s, for isopropyl alcohol and methanol respectively. The hourly maximum emission rate ranges from 2.25E-03 g/s to 4.66E+00 g/s, again for isopropyl alcohol and methanol respectively.

Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed air emissions and wishes to provide relevant information may do so, within 30 days after the last date of posting, publishing, service or display. Please send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the Regional Director, Environmental Protection at No. 200 - 10470 152nd Street, Surrey, BC V3R 0Y3. The identity of any respondents and the contents of anything submitted in relation to this application will become part of the public record.

Application No. 422015

Application for an Effluent Permit Under the Provisions of the Environmental Management Act.

NOTE: This is not a new application, this is being reposted as a result of an error with the BCER address in the original posting on February 23, 2023

We, Woodfibre LNG General Partner Inc., 900 - 1185 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6E 4E6, intend to submit this application to the Director to authorize the discharge of effluents from construction of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility. The sources of the discharges are contact water from excavation, pouring concrete foundations, and other works required for the construction of the LNG facility, located on either side of Mill Creek on land adjacent to Howe Sound, which are discharged through two sedimentation pond outfalls.

The land upon which the facility will be situated, and the discharges will occur, is PID 015-791-611, D.L. 6237, PID 015-822-061, D.L. 5899, and PID 015-910-717, D.L. 2351, all in the New Westminster District, located at/on/near the former Woodfibre Pulp Mill, within the District of Squamish.

The rate of effluent discharged during construction of the facility is expected to be a maximum monthly average of 1,600 cubic meters (m³) per day, in total, from two sedimentation pond outfalls. The operating period for effluent discharges will be 24 hours/day, 7 days/week during the construction of the LNG facility. The characteristics of the effluents are as follows: Total Suspended Solids (TSS) of up to 75 mg/L and pH ranging between 5.5 and 9.0. The types of treatment to be applied to the discharges are: a) active wastewater treatment to treat TSS, dissolved metals, and organic compounds; and b) passive settling of TSS using sedimentation ponds.

Any person who may be adversely affected by the proposed discharge of waste and wishes to provide relevant information may, within 14 days after the last date of posting, publishing, service or display, send written comments to the applicant, with a copy to the B.C. Energy Regulator, Environmental Stewardship 6534 100th Avenue, Fort St. John, BC V1J 8C5 or via email to Waste.Management@bc-er.ca. The identity of any respondents and the contents of anything submitted in relation to this application will become part of the public record. A copy of the authorization application can be found at the Squamish Library.
