Please find in Table 1 on the following page a summary of the GenX Compounds emissions for calendar year 2020. This table demonstrates that Chemours has met the Consent Order’s and Title V Permit’s 99% requirement for plant-wide reductions of GenX Compounds emissions from 2017 Total Reported Emissions. These emissions were calculated pursuant to Paragraph 8.c of the Consent Order, which requires that Chemours submit annual emissions reports for GenX Compounds and include fugitive, maintenance, malfunction and accidental emissions. The spreadsheet file with the calculations underlying the GenX Compounds emissions presented in Table 1 was prepared by our consultant, ERM NC, Inc. (“ERM”). The spreadsheet file also provides the emissions test data, control device data, and production data underlying the calculations, as well as notes on the calculation methodologies. Because the spreadsheet file contains confidential business information of Chemours, we will send that spreadsheet file under separate cover directly to you, and the spreadsheet file will not be further distributed or posted on Chemours’ website. If you have any questions, please contact me at Dawn.M.Hughes-1@chemours.com.
