## Summary

On September 29, 2020, EPA approved a Consent Agreement and Final Order (?CAFO?) resolving six administrative penalty complaints for Clean Air Act (CAA) engine and CFC violations found at Connecticut Scrap, LLC and its five related entities (CT Scrap). EPA had alleged that CT Scrap violated the Hazardous Air Pollutant regulations regarding diesel engines and CFC refrigerant regulations at its metal recycling operations. Since the allegations, CT Scrap took its engine out of service by connecting to grid power and has represented that it is complying with the CFC regulations. Pursuant to the CAFO, Ross Recycling will be paying a total penalty of $26,666.

Respondent failed to properly recover refrigerant and/or verify that refrigerant had been recovered from any materials containing refrigerant, using signed statements or contracts prior to receipt of these materials by Ross Recycling. The Region has evidence of three years of CFC violations at Ross Recycling and its five related entities from 2015-2018. Ross Recycling and its entities are currently in compliance.
