On March 8, 2017, a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) between EPA Region III and the U.S. Department of the Navy (Navy) was filed with the Regional Hearing Clerk. The CAFO resolved alleged violations of Subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Clean Air Act (CAA) discovered by EPA during a multimedia inspection at the Washington Navy Yard (Facility) on June 5-7, 2012. The settlement requires the Navy to pay a total penalty of $84,100.00. Additionally, although the Clean Water Act does not permit EPA to assess penalties against federal entities like the Navy for violations of the Clean Water Act, prior to the execution of the CAFO, EPA worked with the Navy to address National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) compliance issues at the Facility.
