On September 30, 2015, Region 1 filed an Administrative Complaint against Penobscot McCrum, LLC alleging violations of Section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C. ? 7412(r), and the Risk Management Plan (RMP) regulations promulgated thereunder at 40 C.F.R. Part 68 for the company?s ammonia refrigeration system at its facility located in Belfast, Maine. EPA?s Complaint seeks up to a statutory maximum of $37,500 per day of violation. Complying with RMP regulations helps companies prevent accidental releases of extremely hazardous substances. The RMP requirements also help the company and emergency responders prepare for and respond to chemical emergencies. A key concern at this facility is that neither the facility nor the local responders are equipped to respond to an ammonia release, and the closest hazardous materials responders could not arrive in a timely way.
