We repaired temperature damage from the 2013/2014 winter in the spring of 2014. We replaced the new condensers on Processor #3 with condensers that have historically never failed in the process. We are adding equipment to our facility support systems to inject additives for lubricity and pour point to meet off road diesel use. The additives we tested performed well in off-road diesel equipment and the pour depressant is tested to work in extremely cold temperatures.

In the spring of 2013, we standardized, acquired and installed new condensers for cooling to standardize all condensers across the factory. We also designed, procured, and installed central plant support systems for our processors including: centralized water chilling and storage, centralized gas
compression for collect, compress and distribute off-gas generated by processors, centralized hot oil system for cooling high temperature fluids, and
developed a site control system to monitor all of the auxiliary plant support systems. In late December 2013, the new condensers installed across the
plant and in the processors began to fail. Over a six week period, all the new condensers failed in operation. Upon reviewing the failure in the condenser, we found the stitch welding used to manufacture them was defective.
