Region 3 - Non-confidential, Enforcement
On September 4, 2018, a Consent Agreement and Final Order (?CAFO?) was entered by the Environmental Appeals Board ordering Justin Holder, Battlefield Automotive, LLC, and Enhanced Alternatives, LLC (?Respondents?) to comply with all terms of a Consent Agreement and Final Order (?CAFO?). Respondents operated a now-defunct diesel truck service and performance upgrade sales and installation facility. Respondents manufactured and/or sold performance tuners, tunes, exhaust gas recirculation delete kits, and exhaust emission control device replacement pipes that have the effect of altering the engine?s fueling strategy, or mechanically bypassing vehicle emission controls. The installation and sale of these types of devices is prohibited by CAA section 203(a)(3)(B). Under the agreement, Respondents will pay a civil penalty of $8,241 and cease and refrain from purchasing, selling, or installing any defeat devices and from tampering with emission control systems on EPA-certified motor vehicles and motor vehicle engines.
