BACKGROUND
The purpose of the inspection was to describe, evaluate, and document compliance with the Clean Water Act (CWA) and associated pretreatment regulations with respect to the Manasek Acquisition Company, LLC d/b/a Warner Bodies (Manasek), facility located at 11700 North SR37 Elwood, Indiana 46036 (the facility).
There are two defined entities (Approval and Control Authority) that have the responsibility to develop and implement the federal pretreatment program.
An Approval Authority is either the Director of a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) authorized state with an EPA-approved pretreatment program or the EPA Regional Administrator in a state without an approved pretreatment program. A Control Authority is either a Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) with an approved pretreatment program or the Approval Authority for a POTW without an approved program.
The State of Indiana and the City of Elwood POTW do not have an EPA-approved pretreatment program. Hence EPA is both the Approval Authority and Control Authority in the state of Indiana. As a "Control Authority" in Indiana, EPA has enforcement authority pertaining to the federal pretreatment requirements at Manasek. The facility discharges into the City of Elwood POTW.
EPA has developed nationally applicable Categorical Pretreatment standards under CWA. New source metal finishing operations [40 CFR 433.17] are the applicable Categorical Pretreatment Standards for the facility operation. The standards are concentration-based (mg/l).
Under the state only pretreatment program, the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) also issued Industrial Wastewater Pretreatment (IWP) Permit INP000662. The current permit is valid through May 31, 2026.
SITE INSPECTION
Opening Conference
EPA representatives entered the facility at 12 noon on April 14, 2021. We signed in at the reception desk and proceeded to the opening conference. We were greeted by the facility representatives Richard Manasek, CEO - Chairman, Craig Longstreth, President, Brian Lapp, Chief Financial Officer & Water Compliance Manager. Mr. Lapp also introduced us to their environmental consultants, Mr. Anthony Henley and Justen Stutz of August Mack Environmental. The EPA inspection team presented its credentials to the facility representatives and began the opening conference at 12:30 pm. I explained to the representatives that EPA was performing the CWA compliance evaluation inspection of the facility operations and we would evaluate its wastewater discharges and take photos during the inspection. I also mentioned that confidential business information (CBI) may be declared for materials reviewed during the inspection. Mr. Manasek stated that his staff would let me know during the course of inspection if a given business information (shared with EPA) is deemed confidential in nature. I did not receive any request for CBI from the facility during the inspection. I informed the Manasek
2
representatives that they would receive copies of the photographs collected during the inspection as an attachment to the inspection report. The opening conference began with general questions about the facility's background, manufacturing processes, any applicable wastewater treatment process, and compliance reporting history. Mr. Lapp stated that the facility has retained the services of August Mack Environmental Company to address the ongoing 40 CFR 433.17 effluent standard exceedances for Zinc and Total Toxic Organics (TTO).
Facility Background
I asked Mr. Manasek about the nature of products and the company's history of operations. He stated that Warner Bodies has been manufacturing utility truck bodies, rescue vehicles and custom trucks in Noblesville, Indiana for over half a century. During the company's early years, Warner Bodies manufactured specialized van bodies for the sales and service industries. Eventually, Warner Bodies expanded to include service bodies, custom utility bodies and fire and rescue vehicles. Warner Bodies products are found in construction, utilities, state and local government, small business, and fire departments.
Purchased in March 2010, by Manasek Acquisition Company, LLC, Manasek continued to operate the Noblesville plant as Warner Bodies with the same manufacturing operations of producing a wide variety of standard and custom truck bodies. In 2013, Warner Bodies acquired a 250,000 square foot facility in Elwood, Indiana to facilitate the growth for the company. After extensive renovations and preparations, the move from Noblesville to Elwood was completed in June of 2014.
Process Description
The facility manufactures a wide variety of standard and custom truck bodies, such as utility/service trucks, crane trucks, haulers, fire/rescue trucks, and brush trucks. The primary raw material is sheet metal. Once received, the metal is cut, welded, polished, and/or stamped into the customer specified configuration. Either as a fabricated product or during different steps of the fabrication, the product may be coated using a spray coating operation or a powder coating operation. The painted product is then dried in drying ovens. MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) and acetone are used to wipe down solvent cleaning operations. To prepare the product for shipment, the product may be washed in the wash bay with the wash waters and then discharged to the City of Elwood POTW.
Truck bodies constitutes about 95% of the facility's operation. In January of 2008, Warner Bodies purchased Langsenkamp food processing equipment. The facility has a small production area (and one staff) dedicated for the assembly of new equipment and to conduct repairs on pulpers, finishers, coils, and other parts of the food processing equipment.
Manasek is classified under Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code 3713 - Truck and Bus Bodies. An aerial map showing the aerial view of the entire facility and its location is attached (Attachment I).
Mr. Lapp stated that Manasek operates one 8-hour shift per day, five days a week, with no scheduled shutdowns for maintenance and process modifications. Mr. Lapp added that 102
3
employees work at the facility and their production remains steady for the most part throughout the year. Mr. Lapp provided the hard and soft copies of the following during the inspection:
1. Plant Layout (Attachment III) 2. Paint Process and Prep/Wash Flow Diagram (Attachment IV) 3. Wastewater Pre-treatment (zinc) Diagram & Wash and Paint Area Map (Attachment V)
Facility Walk-Through
We began the tour at 9:20 am on April 15, 2021. Facility representatives Mr. Manasek, Mr. Longstreth, and Mr. Lapp joined us for the entire portion of the site tour on April 15, 2021. Mr. Henley and Mr. Stutz of August Mack Environmental were also present during the entire tour.
Mr. Lapp first escorted us to the material intake area on the northeast side of the facility (photo 1). Raw steel and aluminum are received (via trucks) in this area. I asked Mr. Lapp about the approximate composition of the raw material processed annually. Mr. Lapp mentioned that it is about 90% steel (the average over the last two years is 1200 tons) and 10% aluminum (the average over the last two years is 150 tons).
The inspection continued to the Laser cutting machine with an automatic feeder having 10 magazines. Each magazine feeds an average of 3,300 pounds of steel for the laser cutting designed for that specific magazine (photo 3). An average of 3,300 pounds of steel fits into one magazine. Once all 3,300 pounds of steel is laser cut, additional steel is fed in the magazine as per desired production needs. We noticed that four 55-gallon drums of hyrdaulic oil and hydraulic fluid (photo 4-6) were stored on a wooden crate. The hydraulic oil and hydraulic fuid are non-compressible fluids that are used to transfer power within hydraulic machinery and equipment. We did not observe any floor drains in this area.
We then proceeded to inspect the newly installed deburring machine used for smoothing the metal sheets (photo 2). This machine is equipped with a dust collection system designed to further remove fine metal particles formed as a result of deburring. Mr. Lapp stated that the dust collection is also expected to capture and reduce the amount of zinc from the recently cut metal sheets and hence it would reduce zinc loading in the facility wastewater prior to pretreatment. The facility stopped using the sandblasting machine they used in the past and installed the deburring machine for effective smoothing and capturing fine metal particles from entering the environment.
We then proceeded to inspect an area adjacent (just north of the deburring machine) where we noticed two empty deionized (DI) water containers (blue barrels) and four dust collection metal barrels (photo 7). Rick Roudebush, the facility's purchasing manager, joined us briefly to explain the purpose and quantity of the DI water use. He stated that the DI water is used to cool (non-contact cooling) the resonators in the laser cutting machine. The Facility buys the DI water in 55-gallon drums and uses an average of 1.5 to 2 drums of the DI water annually. Mr. Lapp explained that the 55-gallon size metal barrels are used to collect dust and fine scrape materials, which are hauled off site once a quarter.

Mr. Lapp escorted us through the next process steps of preparing the laser-cut metal sheets in various shapes based on the product specifications. Laser-cut metal sheets undergo bending in the Pressbrake (White Truebend machine) and power folding (green machine photo 8). We continued our tour as we walked by the welding and assembly area (photos 9 & 10), body work area (photo 11), and dust collection booth (photos 12 & 13).
We asked Mr. Lapp to show us the process wastewater connection to the sewer line (photo 14). We noticed a pipe coming through the western wall and joining sewer line (photo 15). That pipe is connected to the sink on the west side of the wall (photo 16). Mr. Lapp stated that the facility staff use that sink to wash their hands during breaks and at the end of their shift.
The inspection continued towards the central part of the facility to inspect the undercoating area (photo 17) where solvent based asphalt undercoating is performed on all of the painted truck bodies. The asphalt undercoating material is stored in a large self-containing tote (photos 22 & 23). Depending upon the product specifications, the parts are either sent to the wet paint area B1 (photo 18) or the powder coating area (photo 19). Both wet and powder coating areas are located adjacent to the undercoating area (immediate south). We did not observe any floor drains in the undercoating or painting operation. We did see a dry floor drain by the exterior door west of the undercoating area (photos 24 & 25). We asked and Mr. Lapp verfied that the floor drain is dry and it is not connected to the sewer.
We proceeded to the parts washing area (photos 26 & 44). Mr. Lapp stated that the round floor drain south of the parts washing area (photo 27) and the main floor drain colleting all the wash water from the parts washing area (photo 28) drains to the underground holding tanks covered by a storage shed located immediately west of the washing area (on the outside). There was an eye wash station on the west side of the west wall of the parts washing area (photo 30). There was also a capped pipe protruding into the parts washing area (photo 29).
We continued the tour to inspect the materials used for the washing operation. The washing area staff first applies the degreaser with the use of a blue tank sprayer (photo 34) on the body parts brought into the wash area, followed by etching/wash conditioner (photo 33) and ending with water rinse and applying the conversion coating spray (photo 32). The coil conditioner and coating chemicals are stored in white 55-gallon plastic drums on a large (yellow) spillcontainment tote (photo 31) that can store four such drums. Mr. Henley mentioned that the degreaser could be the single largest souce of "toluene" causing the facility's TTO exceedances. He stated that he is looking into alternative degreasers without the toluene as an ingredient.
To the west of the wash area is an open room for storing wash chemicals, wastewater pretreatment chemicals, a sampling cart with sampling related supplies, and a paint mixing area. The wastewater pretreatment chemicals are stored in 55-gallon plastic drums on a large (yellow) spill-containment tote (photos 36 & 37). In the same area, we noticed that a pH log (photo 39) is kept on a large log sheet hanging on the wall clearly visible in the control room area. We noticed a sampling cart housing the sampling materials (photo 40), a pH meter calibration kit, a pH 7 buffer used for calibration. We asked and Mr. Lapp confirmed that the facility only uses one buffer for pH calibaration and the bottle had expired (January 2020) pH probe calibration buffer solution (photo 41). Mr. Lapp mentioned that the faclity had hired Cimbrean Environmental Engineering in the summer of 2018 to address the zinc exceedances and later to comply with
5
IDEM's February 2019 enforcement order to pretreat zinc to meet IDEM's permit limit. IDEM's enforcement order also required Manasek to pretreat TTO to meet IDEM's permit limit.
The inspection continued towards the wastewater treatment system located outside the building (adjacent to the wall behind wash and paint area). Mr. Lapp stated that the discharge from Outfall 001 consists of treated process wastewater from the zinc treatment system. Mr. Lapp also mentioned that the facility installed the zinc removal system by July 2019. Wastewater for this facility is generated in the wash bay during the cleaning of truck bodies after they are manufactured. Wastewater from the wash bay drains through a floor drain into first and second stage pretreatment tanks (left to right - photo 42). The wastewater is treated with sodium hydroxide to precipitate out the zinc in the wastewater. Sodium hydroxide is added to the underground mixing and settling tank (left tank in photo 42). The wastewater then flows through two settling tanks to allow the zinc hydroxide precipitate to settle out of the wastewater. The wastewater then flows to a pH adjustment tank (second underground storage tank) where sulfuric acid is added to adjust the pH. The chemical feed pumps and controllers (photo 38) regulate the feed rate of sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid to the wastewater treatment tanks. Treated wastewater then flows to a chamber with a pump and float system (photo 43). When the high-level float is tripped, wastewater is pumped out, sampled, and discharged to the sewer system. The outfall has an average discharge of approximately 1200 GPD. Outfall 001 is located after the wash bay and prior to the discharge into the sewer.
At the time of the visit, the facility did not have any mechanism in place to collect 24-hour flow based composite samples for the metal sample analysis as required by 40 CFR 403.12(g)(3). Mr. Lapp stated that the facility has only used the "grab" sampling method to collect wastewater sampling to date. Grab water samples are collected from the discharge sampling spigot (photos 46 & 47) prior to discharge from outfall 001. The discharge spigot is located just above the discharge flow meter (photo 45). The discharge pipe is routed close to the ceiling of a room south of the parts washing area (photos 48 & 49).
The inspection continued to the side of the wet paint booth where we noticed a 55-gallon metal drum (photos 50-52) of lacquer thinner (cleaner). Mr. Lapp stated that the cleaner is used to clean paint equipment (photo 53). Spent cleaning liquid is collected in waste drums, which are hauled off site quarterly (photos 54 & 55). Storage for back up of chemicals used in the facility operations is located in the northwest corner of the western portion of the facility (photo 56) - where the 55-gallon drums are placed on wooden crates. I asked Mr. Lapp if the facility has had any such product spillage in the facility and he confirmed that the facility has not had any spill since it opened in 2014.
Mr. Lapp showed us the finished product assembly (photo 57) area located south of the bedliner area on the western part of the building. Mr. Lapp showed a recently purcharsed multi-stage parts washer (not yet installed - photos 58-60) for washing small to midsize truck body parts. He stated that the parts washer has separate stages designed to wash, collect and recycle (for multiple uses) the spent washing liquid from the parts washing operation with eventual off site disposal of all spent washing liquid. Mr. Lapp mentioend that the washer would cut back on the total amount of wash water discharge to the sewer significantly and reduce the zinc and TTO levels in the wastewater. He stated that the washer is expected to be in operation by fall of this year.
6
We continued the inspection towards the southwest portion of the facility where we observed the shipping area (photo 61) and custom fire truck bodies assembly area (photo 63). Mr. Manasek escorted us to a small production area dedicated for the assembly of new food processing equipment and to conduct repairs on pulpers, finishers, coils, and other parts of the food processing equipment (photo 62). There are no floor drains in this portion of the building.
We noticed one drain south of the powder coating area (photo 64). Mr. Lapp confirmed that the drain is non-functional and it is not connected to the sewer. We also noticed a small bucket of black paint and acetone in the bedliner area ((photo 65). Mr. Lapp mentioned that the black paint and acetone are used in small quantities for the fire truck bodies.
Stormwater: We did not observe storage of any materials outside the facility. The facility's SIC code is 3713. IDEM's Industrial Stormwater 327 IAC 15-6 (Rule 6) applies to facilities described by one or more of the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Codes and/or meet specific activity categories including "33xx - Primary metal industries"; "34xx - Fabricated metal products"; "35xx - Industrial machinery and equipment"; and "37xx-Transportation equipment." (https://www.in.gov/idem/stormwater/industrial-storm-water-permitting/applicability/). I asked Mr. Lapp if the facility has applied for any stormwater permit with IDEM or has any stormwater documentation. Mr. Lapp stated that the facility does not have any stormwater related requirements nor documentation in place.
After completing the facility walk-through portion of the inspection, Mr. Lapp escorted us to the office meeting room for the closing conference.
Closing Conference
We began the closing conference at noon. Mr. Manasek, Mr. Longstreth, Mr. Lapp, Mr. Henley, and Mr. Stutz attended the closing conference. We discussed the following areas of concern:
1. Continued Effluent Exceedances of Zinc and TTO: Review of the Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMR) records for the period November 2016 to December 2020 revealed effluent limitation exceedances and reporting concerns. New source metal finishing operations at your facility are subject to the pollutant specific performance standards specified in 40 CFR 433.17. The standards are concentration-based (mg/l). Please refer to attachment VI for details.
a. The daily maximum and monthly average for zinc was exceeded during November and December 2016, February through December 2017, January through December of 2018, January through December of 2019, and January through December of 2020.
b. The daily maximum and monthly average for TTOs were exceeded during December 2016, December 2017, June and December 2019, and December 2020.
7
2. TTO Reporting Discrepancies - DMR Vs. Lab Results: TTO is the summation of all quantifiable values greater than 0.01 mg/l for toxic organics listed in 40 CFR 413.02(i) and 40 CFR 433.11(e). As required under 40 CFR 433.17, TTO values shall not exceed the daily maximum of 2.13 mg/l. During our review of the facility's DMR records, we noted that the facility had incorrectly reported the summation of TTO analysis for November 2016, December 2017, June and December 2019, and December 2020 in its DMR submissions. Please refer to attachment VII for details.
3. Sampling: 403.12(g)(3) requires the facility to obtain 24-hour composite samples through flow-proportional composite sampling techniques, unless time-proportional composite sampling or grab sampling is authorized by the Control Authority. I asked and Mr. Lapp confirmed that the facility does not collect a "24-hour composite sample" consisting of at least 3 individual flow-proportional samples of wastewater, consisting of aliquots withdrawn throughout the 24-hour discharge period.
4. Operator Certification: The IDEM permit requires Manasek to only operate its wastewater treatment facilities under the responsible charge of an operator with qualifications established in 327 IAC 5-22-7. At the time of the inspection, the facility did not have a certified operator. Mr. Lapp stated that the facility is in the process of hiring a certified operator.
5. pH buffer solution: The facility only uses one buffer (pH 7 buffer) for pH calibaration and the bottle had expired (January 2020) pH probe calibration buffer solution. The facility is requied to have at least three pH probe calibration buffer solutions that are not expired.
6. Stormwater: The facility's SIC code is 3713. IDEM's Industrial Stormwater 327 IAC 15-6 (Rule 6) applies to facilities described by the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code "37xx -Transportation equipment." The facility does not have any stormwater documentation in place. This finding and the area of concern was not discussed during the closing conference.
We ended the closing conference and departed the facility at 1:45 pm.
