Summary

The Respondent conducts fabrication, assembly, rehabilitation, and function testing of passenger rail cars, and generates SQG quantities of hazardous waste, primarily spent solvents. The facility was issued a judicial complaint by the Department of Justice in 2009 for the haphazard storage of hazardous waste in two buildings in the rear lot of the facility and for failure to make hazardous waste determinations. Despite the judicial action taken against it, ten violations were cited as a result of the December 2013 inspection, including using the two buildings to haphazardly store hazardous waste for long periods of time. The Consent Agreement requires the Respondent to pay a fine of $71,120 and to come into compliance with regulations that apply to its storage of hazardous waste in containers at the Yonkers facility.
