Narrative:
While working local control west; the tower tmc made the call to depart and land runway 9 and also depart runway 15L. It has been brought to my attention that each and every departure off of runway 15L has been a potential conflict with the runway 9 arrival even though I was using anticipated separation and departing behind the arrival as well as providing traffic information reference the arrivals to runway 9. Recommendation; all departures [should go] to runway 15L so as not to create an urgency reference arriving and departing runway 9.
