## TOPICS DISCUSSED AND ACTION TAKEN

On December 13, 2013 at 3:26 pm, I spoke with Gil Vasquez (916

- 322

- 1400). He requested that an e

- mail with

relevant data be sent for him to confirm. I sent the e

- mail immediately following our discussion.

On December 30, 2013 at 1:49 pm, Gil Vasquez returned my call, along with two other engineers in his office

( Armando Martinez and Renan Jauregui ). They wanted to preliminarily confirm that the numbers pulled from

the DMR database were no t in the correct units, and that the reading should be in micrograms instead of

milligrams. They also wanted to confirm how we wanted flow data reported, as the value we currently have is a

daily value for the 30 th 

### of April. I requested that they send th e monthly flow rates so we could calculate an

average value and apply it to the updated concentration. I also requested that they send information for 2012

and 2013, if it is readily available. They agreed to provide me with the data by the end of the we ek.Need to return call by / at/between and

Hello Julia,

Thank you for speaking with us and answering questions yesterday. After looking at the values you requested we

noticed that the information was incorrectly transferred from the DMR paper copy to ICIS. Scientific notation was

incorrectly entered into ICIS, for example “E.0067” instead of “0.0067E

- 5”. We have corrected these mistakes in ICIS for

methyl mercury and are in the process of reviewing/correcting other parameters.

Per our ph one conversation, attached is a spreadsheet with the methyl mercury and flow values from 2011 through

2013. Please note the units for methyl mercury data are in micro grams per liter (ug/L). The 002

- S DMRs do not

required flow. The flow data we have pro vided are the averages of the monthly daily max values for each semiannual

period. Please let us know if you have other facilities or DMRs that need to be reviewed.

Thank you,
