GENERAL SUBJECT : Discharges Reported to DMR in 2008 

 

TOPICS DISCUSSED AND ACTION TAKEN 

I called MPM Silicones on June 29, 2010, to speak with Fred Dailey regarding specific discharges from the 

facility reported to DMR in 2008. I left him a message identifying myself and the reason why I was calling. I 

asked him to return my call or forward my information on to the correct contact. Jason Martin returned my call 

at 9:00 am on Wednesday, June 30. I told Mr. Martin that I wanted to confirm the nickel, copper, 

hexachlorobenzene (HCB), and benzo(a)pyrene (BAP) concentrations for Outfall 001 reported to DIMR in 

2008. Mr. Martin stated that each pollutant is reported quarterly, expect for BAP which is only required to be 

reported annually. 

The following tables show the original data reported to DMR in 2008 and the correct data provided by Mr. 

Martin. Mr. Martin confirmed that all of the concentrations were reported as μg/L, but were entered into the 

database as mg/L. Other errors included missing BDL indicators and incorrect concentration values for copper, 

HCB, and BAP. Mr. Martin also stated that there should only be one yearly concentration value for BAP as it is 

reported annually. The corrected table also shows now concentration values for copper and nickel in the second 

reporting period. Mr. Martin stated that no sample was collected due to a sampling error. The error should result 

in NODI Code E, G, or 8 being submitted. I told him that the database would be corrected to reflect the data he 

provided.
