Summary

EPA issued an Administrative Consent Order (ACO) and Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) to commence and conclude an action against Tate & Lyle Ingredients Americas LLC (Tate & Lyle) for violations of the Clean Air Act. The ACO/CAFO violations include particulate matter (PM) and volatile organic compound (VOC) emission limit exceedances from a soda ash neutralization system. The ACO requires Tate & Lyle to modify a construction permit to accurately describe VOC emissions following the installation of a wet electrostatic precipitator used to control PM emissions. The CAFO requires Tate & Lyle to perform two supplemental environmental projects (SEPs) for a cost of no less than $300,000. The SEPs reduces sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions from the Decatur facility. The CAFO also requires Tate & Lyle to pay a $150,000 penalty.
