On January 4 th

- 219

- 3752). She took my contact information and told me that someone would get back to me early next week. She also told me to contact Tyler Ginn (225

- 219

- 3 931) or her if I don’t hear from anyone next week.

On January 7 th 

### , 2013 at 3pm, Christine Mayeux returned my call (225

- 219

- 3767). She stated that for IMC Phosphates the radium values were showing up as a violation for February 2011 and the new value shoul d be 4,350,000 picocuries/day. She also stated that the Honeywell TSS discharges for Oct

- Dec 2010 were high but correct. I told her that we were looking at other pollutants for these two facilities. She requested an email with the details of the pollutant s and outfalls we wanted to confirm for 2011 for the two facilities. I sent an email on

1/8/13 to Christine.mayeux@la.gov

.

On January 17 th 

### , 2013 I called and left a message for Ms. Mayeux to confirm that she r eceived my email and to see if she had any questions. See attached email communication.

Kimberly,

We have looked at the numbers, and all appears to be correct. Some of the numbers might be off by a couple due to rounding on your spreadsheet. The permit requires lbs/day (you all have listed kg/d) for all values except flow and

the sulfate concentration at outfall 006 where you all have listed kg/d. We had to convert the numbers and then check them against the DMRs. One error was found:

LA0029769 6/2011 Outfall 002 Fluoride: 3004 lbs/day was reported on the DMR and this was incorrectly entered

into ICIS. The value has been changed and now your spreadsheet should have @1362.59 kb/day for this value.

Dear Ms. Mayeux,

Thank you for returning my phone call. 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 IMC Phosphates Company in Donaldsonville, LA (LA0029769) and Honeywell International Incorporated in Baton Rouge, LA (LA0000329). 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 techno logy

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 20 13 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 complet e 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.

IMC Phosphates Company, Donaldsvil le, LA Flow, Outfall 001 Fluoride, Outfall 002 Aluminum, Outfall 002 Cadmium, Outfall 002 Sulfate, Outfall 002 Sulfate, Outfall 006

Honeywell International Incorporated, Baton Rouge, LA Hexachlorobenzene, Outfall 001 Benz[a]anthracene, Outfall 001 Benz[a]anthracene, Outfall 003 Chrysene, Outfall 003 Benzo[k]fluoranthene, Outfall 003 Benzo(b)fluoranthene, Outfall 003

We appreciate your help in confirming if the attached data are accurate. Please call me at (517) 515

- 1721 if you have any questions. I f 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
