Narrative:
Air carrier X checks in ready for departure. I clear him for takeoff; runway heading given. Air carrier Y checks in; 7 mi final and is cleared to land; runway 7. Air carrier X starts departure roll. Air carrier Y is at 4 mi final and is going fast. By the time air carrier Y is over approach end; air carrier X is 1/2 mi off of departure end and sent to departure. Air carrier Y states too high and goes around. He's north of runway and I turn him to 360 degrees; climb and maintain 3000 ft. Knowing that the much slower climbing air carrier X would be a traffic factor to air carrier Y because of restr at toledo. Runway heading 4000 ft to turn on course. I then immediately communicated to departure controller that air carrier Y missed approach and I gave air carrier Y 360 degrees and 3000 ft. Then I shipped air carrier Y to departure. Recorder system failed to record air carrier Y go around communication. Cause of problem: departure controller turned air carrier X on initial contact instead of waiting for air carrier X to leave 4000 ft. Resolution: follow SOP directives and coordination use of airspace with tower controller.

Title: TOL LCL CTLR EXPERIENCED OPERROR AT 3000 FT AFTER TURNING MA ACFT THAT CONFLICTED WITH PREVIOUS DEP ACFT.
Narrative: ACR X CHKS IN READY FOR DEP. I CLR HIM FOR TKOF; RWY HDG GIVEN. ACR Y CHKS IN; 7 MI FINAL AND IS CLRED TO LAND; RWY 7. ACR X STARTS DEP ROLL. ACR Y IS AT 4 MI FINAL AND IS GOING FAST. BY THE TIME ACR Y IS OVER APCH END; ACR X IS 1/2 MI OFF OF DEP END AND SENT TO DEP. ACR Y STATES TOO HIGH AND GOES AROUND. HE'S N OF RWY AND I TURN HIM TO 360 DEGS; CLB AND MAINTAIN 3000 FT. KNOWING THAT THE MUCH SLOWER CLBING ACR X WOULD BE A TFC FACTOR TO ACR Y BECAUSE OF RESTR AT TOLEDO. RWY HDG 4000 FT TO TURN ON COURSE. I THEN IMMEDIATELY COMMUNICATED TO DEP CTLR THAT ACR Y MISSED APCH AND I GAVE ACR Y 360 DEGS AND 3000 FT. THEN I SHIPPED ACR Y TO DEP. RECORDER SYS FAILED TO RECORD ACR Y GAR COM. CAUSE OF PROB: DEP CTLR TURNED ACR X ON INITIAL CONTACT INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR ACR X TO LEAVE 4000 FT. RESOLUTION: FOLLOW SOP DIRECTIVES AND COORD USE OF AIRSPACE WITH TWR CTLR.
