EPA v. VIDOE, JAMES MONROE ANNEX

Case summary

RESPONDENT VIOLATED AOS ISSUED BY EPA IN DEC. 1999 AND JAN. 2000 FOR FAILURE TO address MCL violations. EPA proposed initial civil penalty in the amount of $25,000 but at the request of the VIDOE, reduced the penalty to $2,000 when VIDOE made an inability to pay argument and supported that argument with cost documentation in excess of $50,000. Because VIDOE's actions undertaken to adddress violations and to prevent future violations went beyond the requirements of the AO, EPA agreed to settle the matter with a civil penalty in the amount of $2,000.00.
