Representatives of Holcim Cement met with EPA to discuss the use of the
upper predictive limit (UPL) and the variability associated with mercury
in coals as well as intra-quarry variability of mercury concentrations.
Other topics included autocorrelation of  consecutive mercury emissions
data,  appropriate methods for the analysis of both long-term and
short-term THC CEMS data, accounting for THC emissions from coal mills,
clinker production monitoring issues, and issues associated with kiln
startup and shutdown.
