Summary

On September 25, 2018, Region 10 filed an expedited settlement agreement which both initiated and concluded an administrative action against Bellevue Milk and Ice Cream Plant in Bellevue, Washington for violations of CAA 112(r) Risk Management Program requirements. Respondent failed to comply with several risk management program requirements that apply to its use of anhydrous ammonia. Most importantly, Bellevue Milk and Ice Cream Plant failed to have a training program for their operators to assure they understood and followed current operating procedures to avoid process deviations and upsets in preventing an ammonia release that could impact the community surrounding its facility. A plan provides important information to emergency responders and planners that include accurate chemical quantities, emergency contacts and demonstrate operation and maintenance of the ammonia refrigeration process at its facility. The company agreed to pay a penalty of $3,900.
