Dear Mr. Weaver,
The subject COC was issued to Clean Burn Fuels on December 18, 2009 and allowed the discharge of
boiler and cooling tower blowdown at Clean Burn Fuels. This letter is to advise that the production
facility is shut down and no discharges of boiler blowdown or cooling tower blowdown are occurring at
this time. Please keep the COC in effect in the event that the plant is able to begin production again in
the future. We understand that the COC will expire on July 31, 2012, and that no discharge is allowed
after that date unless an application for a new permit has been submitted and approved. You will be
notified prior to any resumption of a discharge of boiler or cooling tower blowdown.
Please advise if you have any questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,
Clean Bum Fuels, LLC
