On February 16, 2016, U.S. EPA Region 5 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) that commences and concludes an action against Chromium Corporation of Cleveland, Ohio for alleged violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The CAFO alleges that Chromium Corporation 1) stored hazardous waste in its tank system over its 90-day limit on at least five occasions, 2) failed to properly label containers of hazardous waste, 3) failed to keep closed containers of hazardous waste when waste was not being added or removed, 4) failed to maintain adequate aisle space in its facility to allow the unobstructed movement of emergency personnel and equipment, and 5) failed to properly store, label, and date containers of universal waste. Chromium Corporation has agreed to pay a civil penalty of $16,300 to resolve this matter. The CAFO does not include injunctive relief because of Chromium Corporation?s complying actions since the inspection and its response to the previous Notice of Violation.
