EPA v. Saint Gobain Containers (NC)(NLP)

Final Order With Penalty

Case summary

This case is part of an nationwide enforcement action for potential violations of PSD requirements. Relief will consist of compliance with PSD permit and BACT requirements as well as monetary penalties. Region 10 is the lead EPA Region in this national matter. Region 2 formally requested DOJ to include an SGCI facility located in Carteret, NJ on September 14, 2005. There was no injunctive relief with respect to the Defendant's Carteret, NJ facility, which is subject to this settlement, because it had closed down. A Supplemental Environmental Project involving the retirement of Creditable Emission Reductions associated with the Defendant's Millville, NJ facility, which is also closed, is part of the settlement.
