Tennessee environmental officials have given quick approval to emission test results submitted by US Nitrogen LLC, a Greene County chemical manufacturer.
In a letter to Dylan Charles, US Nitrogen's plant manager, Bryan Parker, a division manager at the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, said the test results were acceptable to show the company's compliance with provisions of the company's permits to operate the Midway Facility.
The tests were performed by Southern Air Solutions to verify that US Nitrogen's emission monitoring equipment for nitrogen oxides and other emissions from a nitric acid plant and a steam generating boiler were properly recording company emissions. The actual report was prepared by AMP Cherokee.
Stating that TDEC had reviewed the US Nitrogen data, Parker wrote, "Based on this review, the division considers the report technically correct and acceptable for a determination of compliance."
US Nitrogen's permits require the periodic submission of such test data.
The company submitted over 150 pages of data detailing the tests that were conducted in mid-June. The submission noted that the actual results were edited by US Nitrogen and EnSafe, the company's environmental consultant.
