## Summary

Confidential Summary:  This is a civil judicial referral for CAA New Source Review and permit violations at Polyfoam's hard foam manufacturing plant in central Massachusetts.  From 2002-06, Polyfoam repeatedly violated a CAA synthetic minor permit intended to cap the company’s pentane/VOC emissions below 50 tons/year.  As a result, Polyfoam became a major VOC source.  Currently, Polyfoam’s plant has no VOC emission controls; the enforcement action will require state-of-the-art VOC controls and emission offsets, together with appropriate NSR and Title V permits.
