Chlorine
Discharges
Reported

TRI
TOPICS
DISCUSSED
AND
ACTION
TAKEN
I
called
Mr.
Bill
Morrison
of
Sterling
Chemical
on
Monday,
May
23
regarding
chlorine
releases
reported
to
TRI
for
2002.
Sterling's
reported
chlorine
discharge
was
45,000
lb/
yr,
which
accounts
for
77
percent
of
the
chlorine
reported
to
TRI
by
OCPSF
facilities.
Mr.
Morrison
transferred
me
to
Mr.
Jeff
Barnwell.
Mr.
Barnwell
returned
my
call
at
12:
30
PM.
I
asked
Mr.
Barnwell
about
the
chemical
state
of
the
chlorine
releases
reported
to
TRI
for
2002.
Mr.
Barnwell
said
that
the
chlorine
is
measured
as
Free
Available
Chlroine,
and
that
the
reported
release
is
based
on
maximum
concentrations.
The
facility's
discharge
is
sampled
weekly
for
chlorine.
At
the
end
of
each
month,
the
facility
selects
the
highest
measured
chlorine
concentration
and
multiplies
it
by
the
flow
rate.
Mr.
Barnwell
also
verified
that
the
release
reported
to
TRI
for
2002
was
correct.
