Subpart S Calcined-lime Byproduct or Waste Information for RY2014 and Later


This page provides step-by-step instructions on how to enter and edit Subpart S Lime Manufacturing calcined-lime byproduct or waste information.

Step 1: Add a lime byproduct or waste

To add a calcined-lime byproduct or waste, find the CALCINED-LIME BYPRODUCT OR WASTE table on the Subpart Overview page and click the link titled "ADD a Calcined-lime Byproduct or Waste."

To edit a byproduct or waste, click the edit icon or the Name/ID link located in the first column of the table.

To delete a byproduct or waste, click the delete icon located in the last column of the table.

Step 2: Define the calcined-lime byproduct or waste

For each calcined-lime byproduct or waste generated by your facility, Subpart S requires you to provide:

  • A unique name for the product
  • An indication of whether the calcined-lime byproduct or waste was sold during the reporting year

When finished defining the calcined-lime byproduct or waste, click SAVE.

Step 3: Enter required calcined-lime byproduct/waste information

For each calcined-lime byproduct or waste generated by your facility that is sold, Subpart S requires you to report the following:

  • The beginning and end-of-year inventories for each calcined-lime byproduct or waste sold (short tons)
  • For each month in the reporting year, Subpart S requires you to provide the following:
    • The method used to determine the quantity of calcined-lime byproduct or waste sold
    • An indication of whether the quantity sold is based on substitute data values
    • The standard method used (ASTM or NLA testing method) to determine the CaO content of each calcined-lime byproduct or waste sold
      • If the NLA testing method was used, the name of the specific method must also be reported
    • An indication of whether the CaO content is based on substitute data values
    • The standard method used (ASTM or NLA testing method) to determine the MgO content of each calcined-lime byproduct or waste sold
      • If the NLA testing method was used, the name of the specific method must also be reported
    • An indication of whether the MgO content is based on substitute data

If there are months where a particular calcined-lime byproduct or waste was not produced, choose “Did not operate”.

For each calcined-lime byproduct or waste generated by your facility that is NOT sold, Subpart S requires you to determine the following data elements on an annual basis, and you must report whether the data were based on substitute data values:

  • The quantity NOT sold
  • The CaO content
  • The MgO content

Note that after entering the name of a byproduct or waste that is not sold, the status for that material in the CALCINED-LIME BY-PRODUCT OR WASTE table on the “s-overview” screen will be shown as incomplete.  To change the status to complete, you must click on the blue OPEN button on the table row for that byproduct or waste.  This action takes you to the “s-byproduct-3” screen where you enter the information about whether you used substitute data.  If you did not use substitute data, click SAVE on the “s-byproducts-3” screen without making any changes.  This action will take you back to the “s-overview” screen and change the status for the byproduct or waste to “complete.”

If a portion of a lime byproduct or waste is sold and the remainder is NOT sold, the byproduct or waste should be entered in both places. In those cases, ensure that the names are similar (i.e., “BP1 sold” and “BP1 not sold”.)

Step 4: Repeat Steps 1-3

Repeat Steps 1-3 until the required information has been entered for all calcined-lime byproducts and wastes produced at your facility.
