Unilateral Administrative Order Without Adjudication

Case summary

Respondent operates a waste hauling company vehicle and equipment maintenance facility located at 3 Greentown Road in Buchanan, New York. On September 13, 2019, EPA conducted an inspection of the Facility and identified that the Facility conducts industrial activity regulated under 40 C.F.R. 122.26 and discharges stormwater associated with industrial activity, to a tributary to the Hudson River via the Village of Buchanan storm sewer system and outfall.
