**Notes**

a.Feed rate calculated by EPA in March 2010 using calculated Hg spike composition & offsite waste feed concentrations. b.In general, feed rates that fall within the top 10-25% of historical 12-hour rolling average rates may be considered for extrapolation.

c.Calculated by escalating the metal feed rate during testing by a factor of 3. d.No extrapolation is recommended for Hg because the test feed rates were too low (< 50% of the highest historical rate). For Unit 4, EPA needs an acceptable analysis of the corresponding activated carbon injection rate at higher feed rates. If the test feed rate is higher than the highest historical 12-hour feed rate (e.g., SVM from Units 2 & 4), use the test feed rate. For LVM (Units 2, 3, 4) and SVM (Unit 3), extrapolate up to the highest historical feed rate.

e.Stack concentrations are estimated from exhaust parameters and "removal efficiencies" reported by Veolia in the March 2010 application, except that Hg removal efficiencies were re-calculated by EPA. (Todd Ramaly Memo, March 26, 2010) 2
