GENERAL
SUBJECT
:
PACs
discharges
from
Lyondell­
Citgo
Refining,
Houston,
TX
TOPICS
DISCUSSED
AND
ACTION
TAKEN
I
had
called
and
emailed
Mr.
Matthews
informing
him
that
there
was
a
mismatch
between
the
reported
discharges
of
polycyclic
aromatic
compounds
in
the
TRI
public
release
database
and
the
updated
EPA
Envirofact
system
for
Lyondell­
Citgo
refining
in
2000.
This
facility
reported
2,379.77
pounds
of
polycyclic
aromatic
compounds
in
2000
and
this
number
is
reported
in
the
TRI
public
release
database.
However,
online
EPA
databases
such
as
Envirofact
report
this
as
"
NR"
(
not
reported).
I
asked
Mr.
Matthews
to
confirm
whether
Lyondell­
Citgo
changed
their
reported
discharge
for
2000.
Mr.
Matthews
investigated
the
matter
over
a
course
of
a
few
weeks
and
called
me
to
inform
me
of
the
results.
He
explained
to
me
that
according
to
their
records,
Lyondell­
Citgo
did
not,
at
any
time,
attempt
to
make
any
changes
to
the
TRI
database
for
their
previously
reported
discharges
of
PACs
and
he
was
not
aware
why
Envirofact
did
not
report
the
correct
value.
I
also
spoke
with
Mr.
Chris
Abshire
of
the
Environmental
department
at
Lyondell­
Citgo
and
he
confirmed
that
Lyondell
reported
2,380
pounds
of
PACs
in
2000.
This
value
represents
the
amount
of
chemical
discharged
to
a
POTW.
Mr.
Abshire
also
verified
that
Lyondell
reported
2,710
pounds
of
PACs
to
POTW
for
2001.
