PART C. ASH HANDLING

INSTRUCTIONS
Part C requests information about ash handling operations at your plant. Complete Part
C if ash is generated in any fossil-fueled steam electric generating units at your plant.
See Part A Section 8 for steam electric generating unit fuel classifications.
As you are completing the electronic form, note the following: When you enter your plant
name and plant ID on the Part C TOC tab, all name and ID fields throughout Part C will
automatically populate. Refer to the overall questionnaire instructions, the glossary, and
the acronym list for assistance with completing Part C.
Please provide all free response answers in the highlighted yellow areas. Throughout
Part C, you may need to make copies of certain sections/questions. Instructions are
provided throughout Part C regarding making copies. Note that Steam Electric Unit IDs
or Storage IDs must be populated on the copied tab or section, located in the upper right
corner under "Plant ID" and "Plant Name", in order to correlate the requested
information with the steam electric unit or ash handling system.
Where the questionnaire indicates to provide an attachment, an electronic format (e.g.,
PDF) is preferred; however, hardcopies are also acceptable.
Use the Part C Comments tab to do the following: provide additional information as
requested in certain questions within Part C; indicate atypical data (e.g., if 2009
information is not representative of normal operations); and note methods used to make
best engineering estimates in the event that exact data are not available.
Refer to the following definitions throughout Part C:

Steam Electric Questionnaire

Part C. Instructions

"Fly ash collection" is the separation of fly ash from the flue gas. Examples of fly ash
collection equipment include ESPs and baghouses. Fly ash may also be collected by
wet scrubbers.
"Fly ash conveyance" is the conveyance of fly ash from the fly ash collection
equipment (ESP or baghouse) of one or more generating units to intermediate or final
storage (e.g., storage silos or ponds/impoundments). Common dry fly ash conveyance
components include filter/separators, vacuum/pressure transfer stations, high pressure
blowers, and associated high pressure piping (note that conveyance does NOT include
the storage/loading silos). Wet fly ash conveyance equipment is used to sluice fly ash
and pump it to wet ash storage (e.g., ash ponds/impoundments).
"Bottom ash conveyance" is the conveyance of bottom ash from the boiler(s) of one
or more generating units to the intermediate or final storage of the bottom ash. Dry
bottom ash conveyance does not use water to convey bottom ash to intermediate/final
storage. Dry bottom ash conveyance includes systems that collect and convey the
bottom ash without any use of water, as well as systems in which bottom ash is
conveyed mechanically or pneumatically away from a quench water bath (e.g.,
submerged chain conveyor systems). Wet bottom ash conveyance uses water (i.e., a
sluice) to convey bottom ash away from the boiler to intermediate/final storage (e.g.,
ponds/impoundments). Note that dewatering bins are considered part of bottom ash
conveyance.
"Intermediate storage" refers to a facility or site where collected fly ash or bottom ash
is stored after conveyance and prior to being transported to final disposal. Dry fly ash
intermediate storage typically consists of storage silos. Dry bottom ash intermediate
storage typically consists of stackout piles for the bottom ash collected from mechanical
drag systems. Wet fly ash or bottom ash intermediate storage typically consists of
ponds/impoundments.
"Ash transport/disposal" refers to the transportation of ash from intermediate storage
to final disposal. Examples of ash transport/disposal include transportation used to haul
ash off site (e.g., ash that is marketed and shipped off site to a reuse application). Ash
transport typically consists of roads and vehicles that are used to transport the ash.

The conveyance portion of the fly ash handling system refers to the part of the system that conveys fly ash from the fly ash collection equipment (ESP or baghouse) of the generating unit to
intermediate or final storage (e.g., storage silos or ponds/impoundments). Common dry fly ash conveyance components include filter/separators, vacuum/pressure transfer stations, blowers, and
associated high pressure piping (note that conveyance does NOT include storage or loading silos nor does it include movement between intermediate and final storage). Common wet fly ash
conveyance components include sluicing equipment, associated piping, and pumps (note that conveyance does NOT include ponds/impoundments).

Note: If any components of the conveyance portion of the fly ash handling system are shared with one or more other generating units, only report those components and
corresponding costs once.

The conveyance portion of the bottom ash handling system refers to the part of the system that conveys bottom ash from the boiler(s) of the unit to the intermediate or final storage of the
bottom ash. Dry bottom ash handling includes systems that collect and convey the bottom ash without any use of water, as well as systems in which bottom ash is conveyed mechanically
or pneumatically away from a quench water bath (e.g., submerged chain conveyor systems). Wet bottom ash conveyance uses water (i.e., a sluice) to convey bottom ash away from the
boiler to intermediate/final storage (e.g., ponds/impoundments). Note that dewatering bins are considered part of bottom ash conveyance.
Note: Bottom ash conveyance includes all capital and O&M costs required to dredge or empty ponds, dewatering bins, and/or surge tanks to intermediate storage.
Note: If any components of the conveyance portion of the bottom ash handling system are shared with one or more other generating units, only report those components and
corresponding costs once.

The transport/disposal portion of the bottom ash handling system refers to the transportation of bottom ash from intermediate storage to final disposal.
An example of ash transport/disposal is transportation used to haul ash off site (e.g., ash that is marketed and shipped off site to a reuse application). Ash transport typically
consists of roads and vehicles that are used to transport the ash. The capital and O&M costs for ash transport/disposal may include the road or rail infrastructure (roads,
tracks, lights), the trucks and rail cars, the operation and maintenance costs associated with the trucks and rail cars, and ash disposal fees.
