### I looked at the permit concerning EF calcs for kiln.· The factors are to be calculated based on the amount 

### ofcured time produced. 

### I sent you the avg cured tile rate in sq m2 per hour during the test. Also, the total amount ofcured tile produced during the test was 1096.2 sq meters over 

### a period of5 hours. ·

By individual hr - 8:00 to 9:00

- 185:2 sq meters 9:00 to 10:00- 195.3 sq meters



### ·)41J~~v 10:00 to 11 :00

- 236.9 sq meters 11:00 to 12:00- 239.4 

# sq meters 12:00 to 1:00- 239.4 sq meters I thought you might need the hourly data 

### as the test started at 8:45 and was over about 1:15.
