Ozinga violated the Illinois SIP at two of its facilities: 2255 South Lumber Street in Chicago, Illinois (Lumber Street facility) and 1818 East 103rd Street in Chicago, Illinois (1818 East 103rd Street facility). At the Lumber Street facility, Ozinga violated 35 Ill. Admin. Code 212, Subpart K by: (1) causing particulate matter to cross the property line; (2) failing to use best management practices to reduce particulate matter emissions; and (3) failing to have an updated fugitive dust plan available. Ozinga also failed to respond in a timely manner to a 114 request, in violation of Section 114. At the 1818 East 103rd Street facility, Ozinga violated 35 Ill. Admin. Code Part 212, Subpart K by: (1) exceeding the 10 percent opacity limit on its roadways; and (2) failing to clean or water its roadways on a regular basis.
Along with this CAFO, EPA is issuing an Administrative Consent Order to Ozinga requiring that Ozinga update its fugitive dust operating programs for the Lumber Street and 1818 East 103rd Street facilities and all its Chicago area facilities subject to 35 Ill. Admin. Code Part 212, Subpart K.
This CAFO requires Ozinga to pay a penalty of $37,689.00 and to complete two Supplemental Environmental Projects costing more than $ 8 million. The settlement resolves the March 31, 2015 Administrative Order issued to Ozinga for failing to respond to a 114 and the two NOVs issued for Illinois SIP violations on March 31, 2015 (Lumber Street facility) and March 11
