Summary

On September 29, 2025, EPA Region 3 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order, simultaneously commencing and concluding an administrative action against Arcos Industries, LLC (Respondent) for violations of RCRA Subtitle C and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's federally authorized hazardous waste management program at the Respondent's facility located at 394 Arcos Drive, Mount Carmel, Pennsylvania 17851 (Facility). Based on observations made during an inspection on September 27 and 28, 2022, the violations alleged include: operating a hazardous waste treatment, storage, and/or disposal facility without a permit, interim status, or valid exemption to the permitting requirement; failure to conduct hazardous waste determination; failure to maintain secondary containment for a hazardous waste tank; failure to conduct daily inspections of hazardous waste tanks; failure to conduct annual RCRA training; failure to obtain a professional engineer assessment; and failure to report all hazardous waste streams in Biennial Reports. Under the settlement, the Respondent has agreed to pay a $141,778 penalty. The settlement is in support of Pillar 1 of EPA's Powering the Great American Comeback Initiative. EPA notified the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection in advance of this action and received no objection.
