Dear Ms. Gunn:

On behalf of Kropp Forge,

please allow this correspondence to

serve as formal, written comment to

the

above-referenced matter.

Specifically, while Kropp Forge

believes

that

it

is not necessary to

seek

site-

specific relief within the

scope of this rulemaking, Kropp Forge is, nevertheless, exercising an abundance

of

caution

and

filing this comment to

preserve

its

right

to

seek

a permanent

site-specific

allowable

operational level from the

Illinois Pollution Control Board consistent with

35

Ill. Adm. Code

901.105(d).

Kropp Forge will file such request as soon as possible and as necessary.

Should you have any questions or need additional information prior to the filing of a-site-specific request,

please feel free to contact me at 773-320-9231.

Thank you for your courtesies and cooperation with this request.

Very truly yours,

BRADBIIRNE, BRILLER & JOHNSON,

LLC
