EPA RMP citations @ refrigerated food processing facility (NH3 & $10K)

This inspection was for the purpose of determining compliance with Section 112(r)(7) accidental release prevention requirements of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990. The scope of this Inspection may include, but is not limited to:

  • reviewing and obtaining copies of documents and records
  • Interviews and taking of statements
  • reviewing of chemical storage, handling, processing. and use
  • taking samples and photographs; and
  • any other inspection activities necessary to determine compliance with the Act.

In consideration of the penalty assessment factors and upon consideration of the entire record, the parties enter into the ESA in order to settle the violations described in the enclosed Summary for the total penalty amount of $10,600.

NOTE:  I normally do not post ESA’s as they are usually smaller $ and few findings, but this ESA has numerous findings and passed the $10K threshold.  One finding, in particular, was a blast from the past… bathroom inside engine room and access.  This was also identified in the PHA as an issue.
