Summary

On September 29, 2022, EPA filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) resolving alleged violations of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) at a Biddeford, Maine facility - Intermat. The company manufactures carbon fiber composite components for the aerospace industry and uses coal tar pitch, which contains polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs), in their manufacturing process. EPA alleged that the company failed to submit Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) Forms for PACs for calendar year 2020. Under the CAFO, Intermat will pay a settlement penalty of $2,739 and will certify that it has corrected the violation. Maine is not delegated to implement this program, but the Maine Department of Environmental Protection has been notified of these settlements. Enforcement of EPCRA's TRI reporting requirements ensures that communities are not deprived of their right to know about chemicals used or stored within their vicinity that may affect public health or the environment.
