Company Agrees to $90K Settlement for Violations of Clean Air Act at Fertilizer Facility

A company has agreed to pay a $15,290 civil penalty to settle alleged violations of the Clean Air Act (CAA) at its fertilizer facility. As part of its settlement agreement with EPA Region 7, the company will spend an additional $75,370 to complete a supplemental environmental project.  The settlement stems from an inspection that revealed the facility failed to develop and implement a Risk Management Program for its fertilizer facility that complied with the requirements of the chemical accident prevention regulations.  Following community complaints, EPA inspected the facility in November 2011.
