Summary

On September 20, 2021, Region 1 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) resolving an alleged violation of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) at the Nutmeg Container Corporation (Nutmeg) manufacturing facility in Putnam, Connecticut. Nutmeg is a division of Unicorr Packaging Group, one of the largest protective packaging manufacturers in the Northeast. EPA alleged that Nutmeg failed to submit Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) Forms for diisocyanate compounds processed in calendar year 2019. Under the CAFO, Nutmeg will pay a settlement penalty of $11,322. EPCRA's TRI reporting program is a non-delegated federal program enforced only by EPA. According to EPA?s EJSCREEN, the facility is not an area in which the environmental justice indices are at or above the 80th percentile in the United States.
