22-56 Ammonia

What size are ammonia containing delivery trucks?

22-56 What size are ammonia containing delivery trucks? If the amount is increased, can ammonia containing trucks use an alternate route to the plant through a less populated area? The area along Route 100 from Steere Farm Road to Serio's Pizzeria is our most populated area in town, with two nursing homes (Bayberry Commons and Overlook Nursing Home) and two schools (Steere Farm Elementary and Baptist Community Church/School) within 1,500 feet of roadway. Please answer and explain.

Based on Invenergy’s experience at other plants, a 6,200 gallon truck was used in the traffic analysis that was attached to the Water Supply Plan as Appendix E.

The options for delivery to the site are limited and depend upon the location of the supply. When an ammonia supplier is selected, the truck route for those particular deliveries can be finalized and if other options are viable, consideration will be made to take the route that is least invasive.
