REGION III FILED A CONSENT AGREEMENT AND FINAL ORDER RESOLVING THREE VIOLATIONS OF THE TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL ACT BY GLCC ASSOCIATES, L.P. ( RESPONDENT ) AT ITS FACILITY LOCATED AT 600 ROUNDHOUSE ROAD, LEWISTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA, 17044 ( FACILITY ). DURING AN EPA INSPECTION, TWO STAINS WERE DISCOVERED UNDERNEATH THE DRAIN VALAVES OF PCB TRANSFORMER CONTAINING AN ELECTRIC INSULATING FLUID KNOWN TO HAVE PCB CONCENTRATION SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER THAN 500 PPM. EPA DETERMINED THAT THESE STAINS WERE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THE RESULT OF PCB LIQUIDS DRIPPING FROM THE DRAIN VALVES. THE FAILURE TO PREVENT OR CONTROL THESE LEAKS OF PDCB LIQUIDS FROM TWO PCB TRANSFORMERS CONSTITUTES TWO COUNTS OF IMPROPER DISPOSAL OF PCBS IN VIOLATION OF TSCA AND THE REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER, WHICH REQUIRE INCINERATION OF PCBs AS THE ONLY ACCCEPTABLE DISPOSAL METHOD OF LIQUIDS CONTAINING PCB CONCENTRATIONS OF 500 PPM OR GREATER. RESPONDENT ALSO VIOLATED THE REGULATIONS BY STORING COMBUSTIBLE ITEMS WITHIN FIVE METERS OF AN ENCLOSURE CONTAINING PCB TRANSFORMERS IN VIOLATION OF TSCA AND THE REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER. UNDER THE TERMS OF THE SETTLEMENT, RESPONDENT WILL PAY A CIVIL PENALTY AND HAS CERTIFIED THAT THE FACILITY IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH TSCA AND THE REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER.
