US Nitrogen Draws 6.4 Million River Gallons


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

The volume of water US Nitrogen is drawing from the Nolichucky River topped 6 million gallons for the second month in a row during April.
In a report filed with the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, the Greene County ammonium nitrate producer reported that on 10 days during the month more than 1 million gallons were pumped from the river.
According to the report, 1,018,440 gallons were withdrawn on six consecutive days from April 9 to April 14.
The amount pumped back into the river during the month was 6.4 million gallons with the largest amount, 715,300 gallons, pumped back into the river on April 18.
Last month the company reported drawing 7.6 million gallons from the river while discharging 2.75 million gallons.
The monthly reports are required under one of US Nitrogen's permits from TDEC. The report was signed by Andre W. Velo, US Nitrogen's plant manager.
The increased use of the river is another indication the company is attempting to get into full operation despite a series of delays due to problems starting up a nitric acid plant.
In the most recent incident, in which nitric acid vapors were released, the company told TDEC a ruptured heat exchanger was the cause.
The use of the Nolichucky has proven to be the most controversial aspect of the company's efforts to get the plant in operation. Local advocates have warned that it could have an adverse effect on the afrea's drinking water supply.

Pilot Gets 2nd Citation Under Haslam

By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Tennessee environmental officials have issued a violation notice for a Pilot Flying J facility for only the second time since Gov. Bill Haslam, whose family owns the truck stop firm, took office in early 2011.The notice along with a $3,200 fine was issued May 10 for a Pilot Flying J. facility in Greeneville.According to the notice issued by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation the violation was discovered during an inspection on Nov. 25, 2016 of the Greene County facility.The inspection showed piping for an underground fuel storage tank failed to include an automatic leak detection device. Also missing from the truck stop at 11190 Baileyton Rd. in Greenevile was a required shear valve anchoring device.The original 10-page complaint against Pilot was issued in the name of TDEC Commissioner and Haslam appointee Robert J. Martineau.According to TDEC records the last time a citation was issued against the Knoxville, Tenn. truck stop firm was on Nov. 25, 2013 for a facility in Pioneer, Tenn. The company was fined $2,000 for failure to have required overfill protection.  The next oldest citation came on Nov. 8, 2010, about two months before Haslam took office. In fact 10 violation notices were issued against Pilot in 2010 alone.TDEC records show Pilot had corrected the recent deficiencies at the Greeneville station by Dec. 7 of last year.
Asked about the citation and whether Pilot might have received favorable treatment the company issued a statement indicating that the long gap in citations was due to the company's diligence. 
"Pilot Flying J fuel tanks are inspected regularly nationwide. The company works hard to ensure that our tanks are always in compliance. When that occurs, we address the issue promptly and thoroughly," the company statement said.
The violation notice issue in November of 2010 was for a Pilot facility in Maryville Blount County. The firm was fined $3,500. 
Pilot is headed by James A. Haslam, the brother of Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam. Bill Haslam, a former Pilot executive, still has an ownership interest in the company.

US Nitrogen Violations Detailed


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Records from the town of Mosheim show US Nitrogen was found in violation of rules for the local water treatment plant on 27 occasions earlier this year and the company was fined $14,700 as a result.
The violations were detailed in a letter from Mosheim Mayor Thomas L. Gregg Jr. to Andrew Velo, US Nitrogen's plant manager.
According to the letter the effluent pumped by US Nitrogen into the local treatment plant exceeded the allowable limits for nitrogen and phosphates.
Disclosure of the violations cited by a local government has prompted questions from long time opponents of the US Nitrogen project including Park Overall.
"Where is the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Where is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency?" Overall asked. "Twenty seven violations, big ones, in a year."
US Nitrogen officials have not responded to requests for comment.
"What we have here is a failure to serve the people. The regulators are serving industry." she added.
In imposing the fine, Gregg noted that US Nitrogen also had prior violations.
The prior violations include exceeding the daily limit of 55,000 gallons per day for 10 days in February of 2016.
In citing the Midway Greene County firm for the latest violations, Gregg stated that US Nitrogen must recalibrate its flow meters.
The notice states that US Nitrogen had failed on three occasions to perform required retests and exceeded maximum flow limits on Feb. 13-15 of this year and again on Feb. 22.
As Gregg's letter noted the violations came under pre-treatment requirements for the Lick Creek Valley Wastewater Treatment Facility. Notice of the violations stated that they did not cause "significant damage" to the treatment plant.
US Nitrogen is not the only local company to get violation notices. Also cited was SumiRiko, The comany was fines $300.  SumiRiko Tennessee, previously known as DTR Tennessee, is located in Midway.

Heat Exchanger Rupture Caused USN Acid Release


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Officials of US Nitrogen say that a ruptured heat exchanger caused the accidental release of some 424 pounds of nitric acid, according to a report filed with Tennessee environmental officials.
In a two-page letter filed Friday with the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation and state and local emergency management, the Midway company also reported that they did not believe the release caused injury to company employees or local residents.
The release of acid vapors occurred April 19 and marked the latest in a series of missteps in the startup of the acid plant, a key element in the production of ammonium nitrate.
According to the letter from US Nitrogen an estimated 59 percent of the nitric acid released was released to the atmosphere.
The incident started at 6 p.m. and lasted four minutes, the letter states, adding that local emergency management officials were notified at 6:10 p.m.
"A shelter-in-place was issued for industry and residents in the footprint of the nitric acid vapor cloud," the letter states.
US Nitrogen said the acid was minimized when the main acid feed to the heat exchanger were isolated within four minutes from when the leak started."
The company also noted that the heat exchanger is located within a containment dike and the dike area is in as asphalt paved, "so the majority of the liquid from the heat exchanger rupture was contained."
"US Nitrogen does not believe personnel at the plant or members of the public were exposed to levels of nitric acid vapor requiring medical attention," the letter states.
US Nitrogen, a subsidiary of Ohio-based Austin Powder, produces ammonium nitrate which is then shipped to other Austin facilities for use in the manufacture of explosives.

US Nitrogen Fined for Permit Violations


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Citing multiple violations of its wastewater pre-treatment requirements, the town of Mosheim has imposed fines of more than $20,000 on US Nitrogen, based in Midway, Tenn.
The violations, which dated back to 2016, include discharging effluent to the town's wastewater treatment plant with excessive levels of nitrogen and phosphorous.
The largest single fine was for $14,700, according to Mosheim Mayor Thomas L. Gregg Jr.. He said that at this point US Nitrogen has not appealed the fines and violation notices.
In addition to violating the discharge limitations, US Nitrogen was cited for failing to promptly report some of those violations.
In addition to US Nitrogen Mosheim also cited DTR Tennessee for discharging water to the treatment facility with excess levels of nickel. DTR, which produces auto parts, was also cited for failing to report the excess discharge, a requirement of its permit.
According to a legal notice disclosing the town's action, the violations which occurred in 2016, were classified as "significant."
Nonetheless, the notice states that the excessive discharges did not result in significant damage to the Lick Creek Valley Wastewater Treatment Facility.
The discharges, according to the notice, violated the requirements of Mosheim's Industrial Pre-treatment program and state and federal environmental laws and regulations.
According to the notice, the two companies already have implemented corrective actions to ensure against any future violations.



LEGAL NOTICE The Town of Mosheim has established and is currently implementing an Industrial Pretreatment Program regulating industries served by the local wastewater treatment facility. In accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency under 40 CFR 403.8 and the State of Tennessee, Department of Environment and Conservation the following industry was considered to be in significant violation of applicable pretreatment requirements during the year 2016; US Nitrogen LLC, DTR Tennessee, Inc. Incidents of non-compliance were recorded in the period starting in January 2016 and ending in December 2016. None of the above violations created significant damage to the Lick Creek Valley Wastewater Treatment Facility or threat to the environment. The industries listed are making or have made changes in effort to comply with the pretreatment regulations. Mayor Thomas L. Gregg, Jr. 4.27.17

US Nitrogen Files Late Testing Schedule


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Officials of US Nitrogen, the Greene County chemical company, have informed state regulators that testing on a troublesome nitric acid plant won't be completed until late June, nearly two months after the original April 29 deadline.
In a letter to the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Andrew Velo, US Nitrogen plant manager, said a 30 day test of the nitric acid plant's nitrous oxide emissions will begin May 22.
Following the 30 days of operation, Velo wrote that the company will compile the results and submit them to the agency.
The revised testing schedule follows TDEC's notification that US Nitrogen was in violation of its permit because all required testing was not completed despite an extension granted earlier. US Nitrogen had requested a second extension but that was denied.
In notifying US Nitrogen of the violation, state officials said they had not yet determined whether any penalty will be imposed.
"The division is evaluating the appropriate enforcement response for your company's failure to timely test and report," the May 5 letter from TDEC Deputy Director James P. Johnson states.
Velo's letter, dated Wednesday, also disclosed that a series of other tests on the plant have been completed. Some of those test results have already been submitted while others are still being compiled.
According to Velo ammonia emissions testing was completed on April 27. Also completed was a continuous emissions monitoring test on April 28.
Startup of the nitric acid plant has been delayed several times, most recently due to a blown gasket that caused the release of toxic nitrogen gases. That in turn triggered a response from emergency management agencies.
It also triggered concern from some local residents that there is currently no countywide emergency response alarm system.
In another recent development, Mosheim officials issued a notice that US Nitrogen was in violation of rules governing the operation of the Lick Creek Water Treatment facility. According to the notice US Nitrogen was one of two companies that during 2016 discharged effluent to the treatment plant that had not been properly pre-treated.
A subsidiary of Ohio-based Austin Powder, US Nitrogen produces ammonium nitrate which Austin uses in the production of explosives.

US Nitrogen Cited For Untreated Discharge


By Walter F. Roche Jr.




US Nitrogen has been cited by Mosheim officials for being in "significant violation" of pretreatment  requirements for the discharge of water into the local wastewater treatment facility during 2016.
The violation was noted in a legal notice published recently in Greene County newspapers.
Citing federal law and regulations, the notice states that the improper discharges by US Nitrogen and another company, DTR Tennessee, did not cause significant damage to the Lick Creek Valley Wastewater Treatment Facility.
DTR is an automotive parts manufacturer, while US Nitrogen produces ammonium nitrate.
Incidents of non-compliance were recorded in the period starting Jan. 1, 2016 and ending Dec. 31, 2016," the notice states.
"The industries listed are making or have made changes in effort to comply with the pretreatment regulations," the notice states.
The notice was signed by Mosheim Mayor  Thomas L. Gregg.
US Nitrogen did not respond to a request for comment.

2nd Violation Notice Issued to US Nitrogen



By Walter F. Roche Jr.


Tennessee environmental officials have issued another violation notice to US Nitrogen, citing the company for failure to submit required test results on its nitric acid plant.
In a two-page letter to Andrew Velo, US Nitrogen's plant manager, James P. Johnson of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, wrote that the required testing data had not been submitted and a formal notice of violation was being issued.
Citing the requirements of US Nitrogen's permits, Johnson wrote, "As of May 4, 2017 the division has not received reports on the RATA or IPTs."
US Nitrogen officials had advised TDEC that it could not meet the deadline and had requested a second extension. TDEC, however, denied the request last week.
"Because the extended deadline to test of April 29 has passed, it will be necessary to put your company on a schedule of compliance to submit the required testing," the letter continues.
The notice, dated May 5, is the second violation notice to the Midway chemical company. In a May 3 notice US Nitrogen was cited for failure to issue annual status reports on time. TDEC said the reports were issued 31 days past the deadline.
In the latest notice TDEC is asking US Nitrogen to propose a schedule under which it will come into compliance by completing the required tests and submitting the results.
"Please propose a schedule for our review outlining when each of the aforementioned  test requirements will be finalized and submitted to the Division of Air Pollution Control," the letter states, adding that the response must be submitted by May 10.
"If you have any information that proves the violation did not occur, or if you have additional information regarding this violation that you would like to submit, submit the information in writing," the notice concludes.

US Nitrogen Cited For Tardy Permit Reports


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

US Nitrogen has been cited by state environmental officials for late filing on reports required under four of their construction permits.
In a two-page letter dated Wednesday, an official of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation said the reports were filed 31 days past the March 31 due date.
The notice marks the second time this week that the Greene County chemical firm has been cited for the late filing of reports required under state issued permits.
In the letter Amanda Davis, a TDEC manager, wrote that US Nitrogen officials could present evidence that no violation had been committed.
TDEC records show the reports covering activities during 2016 under the permits were filed this week.
The reports include details of compliance with the permits for the nitric acid plant and the operation of a steam generating boiler among others.

Residents Riled By TDEC Decision


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

For some residents of northeast Tennessee, action this week by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation was the last straw.
In a decision finalized early this week the state agency concluded that despite multiple violations of its permits over a nine month period no fines will be imposed on US Nitrogen, the Greene County subsidiary of an Ohio based explosives company.
In a three-page letter to US Nitrogen, Michelle W. Owenby, head of TDEC's air pollution control programs, wrote that after reviewing incidents dating back to August of last year, she had
decided to exercise her discretion and waive any fines. She said the fact that US Nitrogen "self reported" the incidents was a factor.
Ann Harris, a local resident calls that "a farce," noting that it was local residents who sounded the alarm in the most recent failed start up effort which triggered a response from emergency management personnel.
Donahue Bible of Mohawk could only watch as a pipeline was installed on the edge of his property two years ago. The pipeline is used to draw millions of gallons of free water from the Nolichucky River for US Nitrogen's use  in the production of ammonium nitrate.
Bible said it was no surprise that the company got what it wanted, noting that Gov. Bill Haslam was on hand when the company announced it was coming to Greene County.
Eddie Overholt, who got hauled off to jail when he complained that no one could hear what was going on at an early public hearing on the US Nitrogen project said he wasn't surprised either.
"Having been involved in this almost from the beginning I am not surprised. We have been thwarted at every turn and my suspicion is pressure from Nashville. I was amazed to learn, on this last gas leak, that there were no alarm systems for the nearby factories and residents."
The charges against Overholt were eventually dropped.
The incidents cited by Owenby in her letter include a failed Aug 23, 2016 attempt to start up a nitric acid plant. Toxic fumes spewed from the plant producing a large orange cloud that hung over the company's 50 acre site in Midway, Tenn. That set off a wave of anxious calls from area residents as  Harris noted.
According to Owenby's letter the permit violations by US Nitrogen included two events in August of last year including the Aug. 23 release.
But citing US Nitrogen's "good faith efforts shown by self disclosure" of an Aug. 3 event, Owenby added, "I have elected to  take no action regarding this violation."
She said modeling of the Aug 23 incident showed that despite the very visible cloud, the emissions did not exceed standards.
Following the Aug. 23 orange cloud incident, according to Owenby's letter, US Nitrogen promised to notify the agency in advance on future startup efforts and state inspectors were on hand to witness the subsequent efforts.
In the same three-page letter Owenby, did cite the Midway firm for being 80 days late in certifying its 2016 plan for dealing with excessive accidental emissions.
Noting that the certification was only submitted on April 2 and after TDEC had notified the company the certification was overdue, Owenby wrote that she has yet to determine whether a penalty will be imposed for the tardy filing.
The TDEC action Monday follows the notification late last week that TDEC denied a US Nitrogen request for an extension of a deadline until the end of this year to complete performance testing on its nitric acid plant, a key element in the production of ammonium nitrate.
In a statement issued today, US Nitrogen said the denial would not deter the company from going forward towards running the plant at full capacity.
"We will continue to work closely with TDEC to complete the last steps in the required testing," the company said in the statement, adding, "US Nitrogen does not believe this will affect the operational status of the nitric acid plant."
US Nitrogen said that it was in compliance "with the majority of the requirements of the existing nitric acid plant air permit...The testing process will not affect our emissions and, therefore, not adversely affect air quality in the vicinity of the plant."

In the same three-page letter Michelle Owenby, chief of the air branch of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation cited the Midway firm for being 80 days late in certifying its 2016 plan for deadling with excessive accidental emissions.
Noting that the certification was only submitted on April 2 and after TDEC had notified the company the certification was overdue, Owenby wrote that she has yet to determine whether a penalty will be imposed for the tardy filing.

Following the Aug. 23 orange cloud incident, according to Owenby's letter, US Nitrogen promised to notify the agency in advance on future startup efforts.
As a result state officials were on hand for start-up efforts on Sept. 6, Sept. 20, Oct. 11, Jan. 17 and April 4.
"It has been determined that during the start-up events described, you promptly shutdown and/or curtailed production of excessive emissions and determined that they could not be minimized by process adjustment alone," Owenby wrote.
Stating that the public health and welfare were not jeopardized, Owenby said she would not impose any penalties for any of those incidents.
As for the late filing of the accidental emissions certification, Owenby told US Nitrogen to submit evidence that a fine would not be justified.

As long as Bill Haslam is Governor of Tennessee, and Herbert Slatery is his “co-signing” State Attorney General...I don’t think US Nitrogen has anything to worry about, concerning the recent unfavorable ruling by TDEC.


In my opinion, this has been clearly demonstrated from day-one when this “bait and switch operation” was unveiled to the Greene County Commission in the governor’s presence, at the meeting at the General Morgan Inn in Greeneville. It was there that US Nitrogen (Austin Powder Company) Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, James Boldt, led the the Greene County Commissioners to believe, that US Nitrogen would be buying large amounts of water from a Greene County local utility district at Mosheim....knowing...I believe...full-well of their future plans to invade the banks of the Nolichucky River for free water, and industrial waste disposal.


The influence of the governor, I believe, once more came into play...several months later when the legal department of TDOT’s First District in Knoxville ruled...against the use of two rights of way along State Routes 348 and 340 in Greene County to run the two US Nitrogen pipelines, 12 miles to the Nolichucky River...deeming the project “not legal.” This too, was “fixed” by the governor in well less than one month...and the pipelines are there today.


There are several other examples I could relate, of what I believe, was direct intervention in behalf of US Nitrogen by our Tennessee governor.


I speak from the experience of a Greene County land-owner who stood by and watched armed Greene County Sheriff’s Department employees stand guard, as the dual pipelines were placed across over 1700 feet of our property frontage, along Tenn. State Route 340 (Fish Hatchery Road).

With this kind of intervention history from the office of Tennessee’s governor...why should US Nitrogen be concerned about refusal of a TDEC permit? Incidentally, I have been a registered Republican voter in Tennessee for well over 50 years. Politics has no bearing, on my opinion or comments here.

Hello: I am working on a story about the latest developments with US Nitrogen and TDEC. The Tennessean is finally interested, I think. Could you give me a comment on on the record about TDEC deciding not to impose any fines? Thanks
This kind of cheerleading by TDEC shows just how TDEC has become irrelevant in the US nitrogen plant. An employee was airlifted to Augusta, GA in chemical accident, with severe burns, air accidents sprayed into community, now cannot even meet the basic tests for a start-up and then this most recent accident with the acid spill where members of the community had to self report to local authorities! TDEC's Ms Owenby has the nerve to state that US nitrogen has been self reporting! That is such a farce. And the Greene County Industrial Board(IDB), County Mayor, and chair of the IDB, are standing idly by wringing their hands, while members of the Midway/Mosheim communities are declared to be "collateral damage"! US nitrogen, county officials and TDEC have determined that members of these communities have no value! A plant that clearly TDEC does not have any interest or expertise in the oversight of the permits nor the safety of the plant and or employees. For TDEC to take this position that it is OK for these Austin Powder owners to run at will and with impunity is now bordering on criminal positions, in my opinion. How many people have the information that US nitrogen is operating with a federal permit given by Homeland Security and is an "explosives" plant? Why is TDEC being so cavalier about this plant? For TDEC and the local authorizes to be so absent while US nitrogen puts human lives at risk is truly mean and shameless. No emergency notification in place! Nor any evacuation plan for the three schools that would be affected by such an accident. How cruel can these people get? It is being done with malice and intentional efforts, I feel. What a load of horse hockey being sold as a jobs issue by the guv of TN. Haslam will not go unnoticed in this fiasco.

US Nitrogen Says It Will Forge Ahead


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Officials of the US Nitrogen say they will move ahead with their Greene County operations despite the denial of a permit extension by the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation.
In a statement issued to the media today the ammonium nitrate manufacturing firm said that despite the denial of a request for additional time to conduct tests on a nitric acid operation, they expect to be able to continue the startup of full operations.
"We will continue to work closely with TDEC to complete the last steps in the required testing," the company said in the statement, adding, "US Nitrogen does not believe this will affect the operational status of the nitric acid plant."
The decision to deny the request was made last week in a letter to US Nitrogen's plant manager Andrew Velo.
On Monday the same state official informed Velo that no financial or other penalties would be imposed on US Nitrogen despite multiple permit violations. Those included the emission of toxic nitrous oxide gases, one of which produced a large orange cloud that hung over the company's Midway complex.
In the statement today US Nitrogen said that it was in compliance "with the majority of the requirements of the existing nitric acid plant air permit...The testing process will not affect our emissions and, therefore, not adversely affect air quality in the vicinity of the plant."

TDEC Won't Fine US Nitrogen for Violations


By Walter F. Roche Jr.

Tennessee environmental officials have notified US Nitrogen that they will not impose fines on the Greene County chemical company despite a series of violations of its permits that occurred since August of last year.
