RE: followup items from coke/EPA meeting

  
Hi again, Donna Lee.  Hope you're well.
                 
This e-mail is first of several e-mails that I or someone else acting on behalf of the Coke Oven Environmental Task Force (COETF) will be sending to you in the near term to follow-up on the July 29, 2020, Virtual Meeting (VM) among the COETF, you, and other representatives of EPA-OAQPS.  During that VM, we discussed several topics relative to the upcoming Risk and Technology Review (RTR) Review/Rulemaking for Coke Pushing, Quenching, and Battery Stacks (Subpart CCCCC).
 
The COETF, which is managed by the American Coke and Coal Chemicals Institute (ACCCI) and has been in existence since 1996, represents eight of the nine U.S. "by-product recovery" plants (24 "by-product recovery" batteries), including six by-product recovery plants (20 batteries) owned/operated by three integrated steel companies and two by-product recovery plants (4 batteries) owned/operated by two, independently owned/operated "merchant" coke producers.  The COETF does not currently represent one by-product recovery merchant plant owned/operated by Bluestone Coke, and the five merchant "heat recovery"/"nonrecovery" coke plants (20 batteries) owned/operated by SunCoke.
 
During the VM and via follow-up e-mail (see e-mail below), you asked that we provide information on the topics we discussed, including battery physical measurements and other information needed to develop emission estimates and modeling files.  
 
Enclosed with this e-mail is a document which provides an overview of the topics discussed on July 29 (see "ENCLOSURE - COETF RESPONSE TO EPA 082420.pdf").  Soon, I or someone else will follow-up with additional emails providing the data and other information that EPA has requested.  
 
Please contact me if you have any questions.  DCA

Hello again - Other than a copy of the slides, we recall that it was said the facilities/contractors would specifically send the following:

-1998 data on pushing inlet emissions to potentially use as pushing fugitive emissions profile.
- Data used to develop acute toxicity factor of two (2).
 - Adjusting receptor locations, including property boundaries for each facility.
