Summary

On April 6, 2022, EPA Region 1 entered into an Expedited Settlement Agreement (ESA) with Central Maine Cold Storage of Belfast, Maine, resolving a violation of Section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act. This ESA is part of a nationally approved compliance and enforcement pilot under the CAA 112(r) General Duty Clause, which is designed to ensure that small ammonia refrigeration facilities (< 10,000 pounds) have completed process hazard reviews of their systems. The ESA requires payment of a $5,000 penalty and certification that the company: 1) resolved its noncompliance by removing the ammonia from its system, 2) updated the local emergency responders about the decommissioning of the system, and 3) filed any missing Tier II forms. Maine is not delegated to implement this program.
