General Subject: 2011 DMR Concentration Values and Units

TOPICS DISCUSSED AND ACTION TAKEN

On January 9, 2013 at 8:35am, I called Jory Becker with the Kentucky Surface Water Permits Division to ask 

questions about 2011 DMR data for two facilities. Mr. Becker transferred me to Shawn Hokanson. Mr. 

Hokanson is responsible for the NPDES permits and ICIS-NPDES data.

I briefly described to Mr. Hokanson that I was calling to confirm 2011 DMR data for two facilities: 

- U.S. DOE Paducah Project – Paducah Remediation Services, LLC (KY0004049); and

- Arkema, Inc (KY0001431).

Mr. Hokanson asked that I send an email with the facility information and the specific 2011 DMR discharges 

that needed to be confirmed. See the attached email communication.

Mr. Hokanson confirmed the 2011 DMR data, no changes were made.

Attachments: KY 2011 DMR Data.xlsx; KY0001431 Final Permit.pdf; S KY0004049 Final2.pdf

The values were accurate as reported on your attached spreadsheet with the exception of 3 tin values on the Arkema tab- the original tab listed 2 

decimal places- 3 decimal places are listed on the DMR. I have corrected the values and highlighted them in red on the attached spreadsheet.

The permits do not have numerical limitations for the requested parameters, they are required to monitor only.

Subject: 2011 DMR Clarification Needed for Kentucky Facilities

Mr. Hokanson,

Thank you for your time on the phone this morning. Eastern Research Group, Inc. (ERG) under EPA Contract No. EP-C-12-021, is e-mailing you

on EPA's behalf to request clarification of 2011 discharge monitoring reports for U.S. DOE Paducah Project (Paducah Remediation Services, 

LLC) in West Paducah, KY (KY0004049) and Arkema, Inc. in Carrollton, KY (KY0001431). Here is some background on what the information 

is used for.

EPA reviews publicly-available DMR data to fulfill its review obligation under Section 304(b) of the Clean Water Act. The CWA requires EPA 

to annually review and, if appropriate, revise its water pollution control technology-based regulations, called "effluent limitations guidelines" or 

"effluent guidelines," that limit the discharge of pollutants to waters of the U.S. from various categories of industrial facilities. EPA is currently 

conducting its 2013 annual review of existing effluent guidelines and potential industrial guidelines which may need to be included (see 

http://www.epa.gov/guide/304m/ for further information). EPA will discuss this review and the results in its 2013 Effluent Guidelines Program 

Plan scheduled for publication in the Federal Register sometime in 2013 or 2014. As part of the 2013 annual review, EPA is evaluating the data 

in discharge monitoring reports from 2011 and needs further information to complete the review.

We would like to obtain additional information on the following flow and concentration data for the two facilities. The attached excel spreadsheet 

presents our records of the values that were discharged.

U.S. DOE Paducah Project (West Paducah, KY)

Flow, Outfall 019

PCB Concentration, Outfall 019

Arkema, Inc. (Carrollton, KY)

Flow, Outfall 001

Tin Concentrations, Outfall 001

We appreciate your help in confirming if the attached data are accurate. Please call me at (610) 344-0829 if you have any questions. If you would 

like to speak directly with EPA regarding this request, you can contact William F. Swietlik of EPA's Office of Water/Engineering Analysis 

Division by phone at (202) 566-1129 or by email: swietlik.william@epa.gov<mailto:swietlik.william@epa.gov>.

Thank you,

Elizabeth
