Summary

On September 26, 2016, Region 1 filed a consent agreement and final order resolving Clean Water Act violations against Bird, Inc. and Certainteed Corporation (Respondents) for failing to comply with the terms and conditions of NPDES permits, discharging stormwater without a permit, failing to comply with SPCC regulations, and discharging oil into navigable waters in a quantity that has been determined to be harmful. Respondents own and operate a fiberglass/asphalt roofing materials manufacturing facility in Norwood, Massachusetts. The CAFO requires Respondents to pay a civil penalty of $120,800 and to perform a Supplemental Environmental Project SEP worth approximately $100,190 in total. The SEP has two principal components: (1) a hotspot monitoring program, to collect and analyze water quality samples from known chronically polluted stream reaches and other problem points; and (2) a stormwater retrofit design project, to identify, prioritize, and design structural stormwater retrofit projects that will reduce the discharge of stormwater pollutants to the Neponset River watershed.
