## Summary

Galvco Maryland LLC (d/b/a/ Baltimore Galvanizing Co., Inc), a steel galvanizer located in Baltimore, Maryland will pay a $60,000 penalty to settle allegations of RCRA C violations.  The CAFO was filed on July 6, 2016.   

Galvco's RCRA C violations primarily centered on a tank used by Galvco to store spent acid used in the galvanizing process.  The tank became a hazardous waste storage tank when Galvco began storing spent acid in the tank.  Galvco failed to conduct daily inspections of the tank, failed to have adequate secondary containment, and failed to have the tank evaluated by a professional engineer.
