Respondent is the owner or operator of a meat processing facility.

Part 68 under section 112(r)(7) of the Act. Based on the March 8, 2017 inspection, the EPA has determined that Respondent violated those regulations as stated below.
NOTE: It is odd that this level of deficiencies resulted in only a $10,000 fine. The CAFO makes no mention of a SEP or factors that would have resulted in such a low dollar amount.
