## Summary

On July 5, 2016, Region 1 signed a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) to resolve civil administrative penalty claims alleged in a Complaint filed in September 2015 against Savage Arms, Inc. (Savage) of Westfield, Massachusetts for failing to file required Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) reports by the required 2012, 2013, and 2014 deadlines.  Savage manufactures metal rifle components and assembles rifles with the components machined at the facility as well as other components brought in from elsewhere. Approximately 980 rifles are manufactured each day and approximately 230,000 firearms are manufactured each year.   An EPA inspection of the Savage facility identified the existence of lead and chromium above the TRI reporting thresholds.  Savage will pay a $77,000 penalty to resolve the reporting violations alleged in the Complaint.  This settlement is expected to encourage compliance by the regulated community with the reporting requirements of EPCRA and will ensure that the community is not deprived of its right to know about chemical releases that may affect public health and the environment.
