RE: hold off on starting the Indiana Harbor response


Hi Katie. We are in the process of sending you another letter with Indiana Harbor (East Chicago, IN) removed from enclosure 1 requirements and enclosure 2 testing. Basically, it is a letter that has no mention of Indiana Harbor/East Chicago, IN. We will be sending you a revised answer file for enclosure 1 that also has Indiana Harbor removed, but it's not necessary that you use this file if you already started in the other answer file for Haverhill/Franklin Furnace or Jewel/Vansant. 

We will be sending a letter to Cokenergy to test the Main stack and respond to Enclosure 1 that will include answering HRSG questions.

Out of curiosity, what do you do if the Cokenergy HRSG outages make you go over your permit limit for bypass hours?

Subject: RE: hold off on starting the Indiana Harbor response

Hi Donna Lee,

We can refrain from starting the Indiana Harbor response, but, to be perfectly frank, I recommend that EPA issue any main stack test request to Cokenergy if the agency desires to obtain the relevant main stack data on the proposed timeframe.  While some of the limitations we have raised for bypass vent stacks are not applicable to the main stack, there are extremely limited resources both at SunCoke and our consultant to even start planning and/or responding for the issues raised by the bypass vent stack test request, fenceline monitoring request, and enclosure 1 responses.  As we've stated in a few different submittals, we believe that EPA is asking for the impossible, and expanding the test request to Haverhill's main stack only compounds these issues for SunCoke.  

Assuming EPA's concern is remaining below 10 companies to which the 114 is issued, you could alleviate this problem by asking Cokenergy for this testing and SunCoke not completing the Indiana Harbor information.  Given all of the issues SunCoke has raised in its submittals and our discussions thus far with our consultant regarding manpower and lab turnaround times, it is simply not realistic that any such testing will be feasible to be conducted at a SunCoke facility at this time, and perhaps Cokenergy does not foresee the same obstacles that SunCoke anticipates for its facilities.  

Thanks,

Katie  -  In light of the issue with Coke Energy, we may switch the Indiana Harbor 114 to Haverhill. Im checking with Chuck on this.
