In this action, the United States sought injunctive relief and civil penalties for violations of the industrial refrigerant repair, record-keeping, and reporting regulations at 40 C.F.R. Section 82.156 (Recycling and Emission Reduction) promulgated by the EPA under Subchapter VI of the Clean Air Act (Stratospheric Ozone Protection), at five of BASFÂs facilities in the United States. The five facilities are located in Livonia, Michigan; South Brunswick and Washington, New Jersey; Greenville, Ohio; and Beaumont, Texas. In the Consent Decree, BASF agreed to (1) retrofit or retire three of its industrial process refrigeration (IPR) units at its Beaumont, Texas facility and (2) pay a $384,200 penalty to the United States. Region 5's share of the penalty is $128,067. BASF had previously retired IPRs at its Greenville, Ohio, and Livonia, Michigan, plants that had been the subject of a referral to the U.S. DOJ. The cost of retrement and replacement with new units that do not use R-22 refrigerant was $86,680. The amount of R-22 refrigerant removed from service amounts to 610 pounds. The consent decree does not require additional injunctive relief at these particular plants.
