Addendum to my previous report on the permit application for the Charleston processor (recent forwarding of the relevant portion of an RS letter to DHEC, without which I would probably have got something very wrong):

13) One of the apparent points of concern is an assumption in the DHEC Bureau of Air Quality modelling that RS believes leads to seriously erroneous results: "The calculations presented by GEL on 4/14/94 were incorrect. They assumed a molecular weight and density (130 g/g-mol, 7.9 lb/gallon) for the exit stream which is the average molecular weight and density of liquid #2 distillate fuel. They then applied this molecular weight and density to gaseous concentrations of VOC's from source testing and gas chromatography, as opposed to Method 18. BAQ approved Method 18 source testing indicated a molecular weight of approximately 29.99 g/g-mol." RS goes on to add that "while it appears that based on incorrect calculations the potential uncontrolled emissions of volatile organic compounds exceeds 250 TPY. . . . the potential emissions, major source thresholds, and significant increase threshold [Norm's note--thresholds referred to are triggers for NNN applicability] should have been calculated based on after control device emissions of 0.203lb/hr as specified by the 4/14/94 application." RS has brought this matter to DHEC attention several times this year. As of 4/16, BAQ had not responded definitively nor agreed to the correction informally. Brown did tell me, however, that mathematical modelling was an appropriate method of determining the consequences of scaling the processing system.
