On September 28, 2011, Region 1 issued an Administrative Order to Compel Compliance with Information Requests and Access to Documents relating to the Factory H Superfund Site in Meriden, Connecticut. The Order is issued under CERCLA Section 104(e)(5) and is intended to compel compliance with previous CERCLA information requests that Region 1 sent previously to Respondent Douglas Val Arena. Mr. Arena received a general notice letter under Superfund because of his role as general partner of a limited partnership (BL&A Associates Limited Partnership, now defunct) that owned the Site from 1985 until 2007. To date, EPA has incurred over $2.2 million in response costs related to the Site clean-up.
