As required by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) regulations, Rhodia, Inc. is mailing this notice to everyone who has requested that they be notified of hazardous waste-related activities at the Rhodia, Inc. Baton Rouge
Rhodia, Inc. has submitted to the LDEQ a notification of a Class 1 Permit Modification to its Hazardous Waste Operating Permit in accordance with LAC 33:V.321.C.
Rhodia has submitted a Class 1 Permit Modification for minor piping modifications to the stainless steel piping originating at the TS Unit #2 direct burn bay to the #2 Sulfuric Acid Regeneration Unit (SARU #2). Rhodia has removed approximately 40 feet of stainless steel piping that connects the TS Unit #2 direct burn bay to SARU #2. This section of pipe has been replaced with approximately 20 feet of stainless steel piping. Minor modification in the placement of the new section of stainless steel pipe has allowed Rhodia to reduce the line length by 20 feet. The changes in placement will allow easier access to the line during maintenance activities. The modification of piping will not alter furnace design or operation. This change will not alter the permit conditions or reduce the capacity of the facility to protect human health and the environment.
A Class 1 Permit Modification is the most minor type of permit modification. This modification will not adversely change any hazardous waste operations at the site.
A copy of the Class 1 permit modification can be viewed at the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, 602 North Fifth Street , Baton Rouge , Louisiana
