PCS Phosphate Withdrawal of Air Quality Permit
Certified Letter to Mr. Mark Hedrick, Engineer, Division of Air Quality (part of DENR) from Ross Smith, Manager, Environment and Energy, PotashCorp-Aurora (PCS Phospate Company)
Excerpt:
PCS Phosphate has voluntarily taken the decision as a company to not proceed with the sulfur melter at the Morehead City port facility. At this point, we have taken a step back and are reevaluating all of our options.
PCS Phosphate requests that DENR-DAQ remove all references to sulfur handling and melting equipment, emissions, and conditions from the air permit. The resulting air permit renewal would revert back to the previous air permit version No. 09673ROO, and we request renewal of that version of the permit.
