## Summary

On October 24, 2019, the Region issued a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) to A&B Environmental Services Inc. for its facility in Houston, Texas. The CAFO addressed violations of RCRA requirements for small quantity generators. Discrepancies in hazardous waste shipment data prompted further investigation which confirmed that the facility operated outside of its generator status for 2016, thereby failing to meet the requisite State notification, worker training, and other waste management requirements. The CAFO requires A&B to certify that it has met its generator requirements, and to pay a civil penalty of $11,330.00. The TCEQ is familiar with the Region's data mining methodology and was consulted prior to contacting the facility.
