On January 13, 2017, EPA Region 6 issued a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) to Tubal-Cain Gas Free Services to resolve violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The violations include failure to conduct a hazardous waste determination, failure to use a manifest or designate a facility authorized to receive hazardous waste, failure to meet requirements for storage of hazardous waste, failure to meet recordkeeping requirements, and denial of access to the facility. Under the CAFO, Tubal-Cain will be required to pay a penalty of $192,000 and take actions to ensure that the violations do not recur. Tubal-Cain was inspected as part of a ?barge cleaner initiative? series of inspections in 2014.
