Subject: 
draft testing scheme as per COETF comments

Hello  -  We are considering one of the suggestions made by the COETF in regard to reducing the impact of the ICR on the coke industry. I liked one of the suggestions that was made in the recent COETF comments (last page of COETF edits on Enclosure 2 from 2/26/16) that proposed a couple of scenarios to require testing at fewer facilities to cover all tests, similar to the scheme I had already created for quench tower tests. 

One attachment here (draft coke testing scheme) shows the scheme that would be most amenable to us that incorporates all of the ICR tests and subsumes the quench tower reduced testing as well as the simultaneous test method groupings. 

The second attachment shows my current facility lists for both Enclosure 1 and 2, with both the previous/current facility lists and the proposed scheme for Enclosure 2. 

We are prepared to talk about this scheme whenever you are ready, if we need to actually talk; emails may suffice. I am free all day Friday 3/4 (between 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 pm and can set up a call with Chuck and myself on this issue. On the other issues, i.e., the specific edits and method requests, this will take until early next week before I complete the enclosure revisions as well prepare responses to some of the major comments made by the COETF. My time suggestions for these discussions are below. I'd like to separate the discussion on the test scheme from the ICR content since the subjects will involve different EPA staff. 

Please pass on to the COETF that I appreciated the suggestions and edits made on the ICR drafts; many of these were very useful. I/we also appreciated the alternatives provided when included. 

My available times for teleconference discussing ICR method details and questions:

Tuesday 3/8 between 11:00 am and 2:00 pm
Wednesday 3/9 1:00 pm onward
Friday 3/11 11:00 am onward (may not be good for other EPA staff; will need to check)
