EPA v. BPG OFFICE VI UNION MEETING LP (CERTAIN TEED)

Case summary

On July 26, 2016, the Region and the owner BPG entered into a CAFO to settle Asbestos NESHAP violations discovered during the renovation of an office building in Blue Bell, PA. BPG owns the facility. During two inspections of the building, EPA found that BPG and its contractor failed to adequately wet all asbestos containing material while it was stripped from components at the Facility and to ensure that the material remained wet until it was collected and contained or treated in preparation for disposal. After the inspections, the Region found that the contractor and BPG did not provide EPA with the required written notice of their intention to renovate the Facility. BPG will pay a penalty of $35,693. EPA's first inspection of the facility was based upon information provided by Pennsylvania and the litigation team has kept the State informed about our enforcement actions.
