Risk Factors
- EPA greenhouse-gas regulation under the Clean Air Act could require new emission controls at the Kansas nitrogen fertilizer plant
- Agricultural customers concentrated in Great Plains and Midwest, exposing sales to adverse planting-season weather
- Linde air-separation plant interruptions have previously disrupted gasifier operations and could halt production
- Natural-gas producers gain cost advantage as U.S. gas prices approach ten-year lows, pressuring pet-coke-based competitiveness
- $125.0 million term loan, credit facility maturity April 2016, and covenant breaches could restrict distributions
