Summary

On July 20, 2006, Veckridge Chemical Company Inc. disclosed to EPA within 21 days of discovering that it had failed to submit Toxic Chemical Release Inventory Reporting Form R reports for n-butyl alcohol, nitric acid, ammonia, formic acid, methanol for reporting year 2000 to 2004. The failures to submit in a timely manner complete and correct Form R or A reports for the listed toxic chemical, constitute failures to comply with Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), 42 U.S.C. § 11023, and with 40 C.F.R. § 372.30. The July 20, 2006 disclosure requested relief under the “Small Business Compliance Policy” [FRL-6576-4]. The company stated that it employs fewer than 100 employees. The above mentioned violations were discovered during a voluntary review of the facility operation and materials usage prompted by a letter from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection that encouraged consideration of EPA’s Audit and Small Business Compliance Policies. Under EPA’s Enforcement Response Policy (Penalty Policy) for Section 313 of EPCRA.
