On June 23, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the District of Puerto Rico entered a consent decree resolving EPA's claims against the Municipality, pursuant to RCRA 7003. The lawsuit concerns the Municipality's solid waste landfill, whose operations and management EPA has determined may pose a potential imminent and substantial endangerment to human health and the environment. A civil complaint, which was filed when the consent decree was lodged with the court, alleges that the Municipality failed to fully comply with certain provisions of prior negotiated administrative orders issued by EPA for work at the landfill. Under the consent decree, the Municipality must: (a) provide site security and fencing, (b) maintain interim cover to help control odors, trash, and disease transmission routes, (c) complete permanent closure of the landfill by July 2019 and thereafter perform post-closure care, including the installation and operation of a groundwater monitoring system, (d) implement recycling and pilot composting programs to reduce waste disposal costs, and (e) implement a mosquito control plan to help fight diseases associated with the Zika virus that have adversely affected Puerto Rico. The Municipality must also pay a civil penalty of $20,000.
