So far in the 4Q 08, EQS has set daily (35 heats), weekly (211 heats) and monthly (888 heats) production records. These records were made possible by the hard work of our steelmaking team, as they skillfully and safely utilized the equipment and technology available to them. Annual production at EQS will soon be very close to the 450,000 tons rate (or 10,000 heats per year) allowed by the Title V Air Quality Permit.
