On January 13, 2017, EPA Region 6 issued a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) to Tubal-Cain Marine Services to resolve violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The violations include failure to conduct a hazardous waste determination, failure to obtain a permit for permit required activities and failure to meet requirements of a universal waste generator. Under the CAFO, Tubal-Cain will be required to pay a penalty of $63,000 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.
