GENERAL
SUBJECT:
SIC
Code
for
Uncle
Sam
and
Faustina
facilities
TOPICS
DISCUSSED
AND
ACTION
TAKEN
On
November
18,
2003,
I
spoke
with
Russell
G.
Oliver
of
IMC
Phosphates
Co.
concerning
the
SIC
code
for
two
IMC
Phosphates
facilities.
One
facility
is
located
in
Uncle
Sam,
LA.,
and
the
other
facility
is
located
in
Donaldson,
LA.
(
i.
e.,
the
Faustina
facility).

Mr.
Oliver
said
that
the
Uncle
Sam
facility
produces
sulfuric
acid
by
burning
sulfur
and
that
all
of
the
sulfuric
acid
produced
is
used
in
the
manufacture
of
phosphoric
acid.
The
only
wastewater
generated
by
this
process
is
non
contact
cooling
water.
There
is
also
runoff
from
storage
piles.
The
NPDES
permit
for
this
facility
contains
a
pH
requirement
for
the
non
contact
cooling
water
just
in
case
the
cooling
water
accidentally
contacts
the
process
water.

Other
operations
at
the
Uncle
Sam
facility
include
the
manufacture
of
phosphoric
acid
by
a
wet
process,
the
defluorination
of
phosphoric
acid,
and
the
manufacture
of
hydrofluoric
acid.
Mr.
Oliver
agreed
that
the
SIC
Code
for
the
Uncle
Sam
facility
is
2874
(
phosphates),
not
2873
(
fertilizer).

Mr.
Oliver
said
that
the
operations
at
the
Faustina
facility
include
the
production
of
ammonia
and
three
finished
fertilizer
processes
in
which
phosphoric
acid
produced
at
the
Uncle
Sam
facility
is
mixed
with
ammonia
produced
at
the
Faustina
facility.
However,
effluent
limits
for
the
Faustina
facility,
which
require
double
lime
treatment
of
runoff,
are
from
the
effluent
limitations
guidelines
for
the
phosphate
category.
Mr.
Oliver
didn't
know
which
SIC
code
should
be
assigned
to
the
Faustina
facility.
