Dear Mr. Longo: Please let this letter serve as this departments permission for you to test the elbow, carbon filters, and the paint arrestor you have installed in your paint booth ventilation system for the next sixty days (60). The repairs you made are an attempt to abate the Notice of Violation issued you on August 7, 2008. If at any time during the testing of the repairs the fumes/odors are detected you must immediately stop all painting operations. Thank you for your cooperation in resolving this situation. If you have any questions, I can be reached at 860-644-2511, extension 248. Sincerely, Robert De Vito, R.S. Environmental Health Officer CC: Virginia Bamber Memorandum for file To: File From: Robert De Vito, Environmental Health Officer Date: April 24,2008 Re: Odors coming from Unlimited Motor Sports from painting On April 22, 2008, I conducted a general compliant investigation at Unlimited Motor Sports &Paint, Inc., located at 665 Nutmeg Road North,to investigate an odor complaint registered by the residents of an adjacent property, 315 Strong Road. Residents of 315 Strong Road are complaining of paint odors coming from UMS when UMS performs painting operations. On April 22, 2008, Epoxy paint spraying operations were conducted. During the painting operations,Virginia Bamber, complainant, and a representative of this office walked the yard of Ms. Bamber residence and at that time no odors were detected, no visible emissions from the exterior vent were observed and no paint residues were found on the adjacent pine tress or ground. No violations were noted at the time of the inspection. �'6 — 6 t � /_0 n t General Report Type of Inspection: RTI E-mail Address: Source Name: UNLIMITED MOTORSPORTS Address: 701 North Nutmeg Road, South Windsor, CT 06074 Contact Name: Mr. Longo Telephone No.: (860) 289-1701 Ext.
