On August 13, 2019, EPA Region III filed an EPCRA 313 administrative Consent Agreement and Final Order which simultaneously commenced and resolved one EPCRA 313 violation alleged against Rose Acquisition Co., LLC ( Rose ), of 401 N. 8th Street, Reading, PA 19601. Rose operates a metal fabrication and manufacturing facility. In this case, Rose failed to prepare and make available to an EPA inspector records documenting its usage of the toxic chemicals - Chromium, Manganese, and Nickel contained in stainless steel during calendar year 2016. These records are important in determining whether Rose was required to report to the Toxics Release Inventory for 2016. EPA consulted with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, which expressed no objection. Pursuant to the consent agreement, Rose will pay a civil penalty of $4,000.00.
