On October 1, 2010, Region III entered into a RCRA 3013 Administrative Order on Consent with Hercules Incorporated for its facility located in Courtland, Virginia (Âthe FacilityÂ). Hercules previously produced rosin, fatty acids, and organic peroxides at the Facility and sold off two of the production units to unrelated parties. In 1999, EPA and Hercules entered a Facility Lead Agreement (or ÂFLAÂ) to characterize releases of hazardous substances and constituents and to provide necessary interim measures at the Facility. This Order is designed to formalize and incorporate the work undertaken by Hercules under the FLA, to provide for the completion of a RCRA Facility Investigation to determine fully the nature and extent of any release of hazardous wastes and/or hazardous constituents at and/or from the Facility, and to perform one or more Corrective Measures Studies as necessary to prevent and mitigate any threats to human health and/or the environment.
