DISPERSION CALCUIATIOMS FOR C-8
I reviewed J- G. Loschiavo's 5/12/81 letter requesting

be made.
We
Annual average concentration at each receptor (specified
location).
Highest 8-hour average concentration at each receptor.
8-hour average concentration distribution at each receptor.
This will be reported as the number of days per year
exceeding specified values.
+ Receptors will be locations specified in Loschiavo's letter (other locations can be-added) and a grid of
receptors arranged in polar coordinates (at various distances from the -source and at bearings at 10 degree intervals).
+
Wevodau has Parkersburg weather data for 1970 - 74 on
magnetic tape. It is hourly observations of temperature,
wind direction and speed, etc. which allows atmospheric
stability to be determined. The computer program will
calculate concentrations at each receptor for all the
weather data and average the results. This will eliminate
the uncertainty in converting from one-hour to eight-hour
averages in the preliminary calculations. S

+ Calculations will be made for two cases.
Case 1 -
Same as specified in Loschiavo's 4/24/81
letter to Wevodau which is operation of both fine powder dryers after the May shutdown (15 feet added to the dryer stacks).
Case 1A -Same as Case 1 except the dryer stacks will
be the height before the May shutdown.
+
Computer programs are available and similar calculations
have been made for other sites. Some results for sulfur
dioxide emissions at the East Chicago Plant are attached.
They show annual average concentrations and highest
24-hour average concentration at each receptor. Numbers
in parentheses are the day on which highest 24-hour
average occurred using 1975 weather data.
+ Similar calculations can be made for other materials for any site where weather data is available. I plan to inquire about weather data for Dordrecht and Shimizu.
+
Wevodau expects to start work after Memorial Day and
some results should be available in the first week of
June. This work may exceed the EWR ($1500) which is
circulating.
