## Summary

On July 14, 2021, EPA entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) with Bridgton Academy of North Bridgton, Maine, resolving a violation of Section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act (CAA). This AOC stemmed from a nationally approved compliance and enforcement pilot under the CAA 112(r) General Duty Clause, which is designed to ensure that small ammonia refrigeration facilities (< 10,000 pounds) have completed process hazard reviews of their systems. EPA elected to address the violation with an AOC instead of an Expedited Settlement Agreement, as is the typical outcome of the enforcement pilot, because the facility's refrigeration system has less than 1,000 pounds of ammonia. The AOC requires Bridgton Academy to hire an expert to complete a Process Hazard Review, coordinate with local emergency responders, file any missing Tier II forms, and provide EPA with a short statement about plans it has to improve safety at the facility as a result of conducting the Process Hazard Review. Maine is not delegated to implement this program.
