From about 5 minutes of digging, I found the below which perhaps helps to put the 29m gallons in context.

So...keeping things simple and using months of 30 days:
Using 29M gallons over 15 months = 29,000,000 / (15 * 30) = 64,444 gallons per day avg
Based on 22.8m daily production capacity that's less than 0.3% of the total production capacity per day.
