Summary

The Respondent's facility in Penuelas, Puerto Rico, at the time of the September 8th inspection, stored over 100,000 scrap tires without any controls for disease vectors or the prevention of fires. In fact a tire fire had occurred at the facility in August 2008. EPA's Order requires the removal of all tires, the application of fire and disease vector controls while tires remain at the facility, the proper management of tires at any future locations, the extinguishment of any still smouldering tires and an environmental assessment of any contamination resulting from the tire fire.
