## Summary

On August 2, 2022, EPA Region III issued an Administrative Compliance Order on Consent (Order) to Stoner, Inc., the owner and operator of a manufacturing facility for cleaning products, automotive appearance products, and mold release agents, located in Quarryville, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.  EPA alleges that Stoner failed to submit and implement a risk management plan in accordance with CAA Section 112(r)(7) and its regulations, the Chemical Accident Prevention Provisions. Under the Order, the company will retain a third-party contractor to assess the Facility's compliance with the Risk Management Program and conduct any necessary improvements to ensure compliance.  The facility is located in an area of potential EJ concern, with two demographic indicators (below high school education and young population) below state averages and one environmental indicator (particulate matter) around the 80th percentile for the nation. This case seeks to ensure that facilities that store extremely hazardous substances safely store their chemicals to reduce the likelihood of accidental chemical releases and the resulting potential harm to neighboring communities and the environment, which is especially important in potential EJ areas. The CAA Section 112(r) program is not delegated to Pennsylvania, but Pennsylvania has been notified of this action and has not raised any objections.
