On April 8, EPA Region 3 filed an Expedited Settlement Agreement and Final Order, simultaneously commencing and concluding an administrative action proceeding against BioSpectra, Inc. located at 100 Majestic Way in Bangor, PA 18013 ( Facility ) for violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ( RCRA ) and the authorized Pennsylvania Hazardous Waste Management Regulations (PaHWMR), discovered during EPA's compliance evaluation inspection of the Facility on April 23, 2025. The Facility is a large quantity generator of hazardous waste ( HW ) that manufactures salt and sugar solutions for pharmaceutical manufacturers. The violations in the settlement include operating without a permit, failure to make a HW determination, failure to conduct weekly inspections, failure to determine subjectivity of RCRA air emission requirements, failure to maintain adequate aisle space, failure to provide contingency plan to local authorities, and failure to include HW duties in job descriptions. Region 3 notified PADEP, which had no objections to this action. Per the terms of the Expediated Settlement Agreement, the Facility will pay a civil penalty in the amount of $13,750.00. This action supports the Administrator's Pillar 1: Clean Air, Land, and Water for Every American.
