EPA v. GAUDIOR ACADEMY

Case summary

THIS CASE WAS TAKEN AGAINST A SCHOOL FOR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS IN SCHOOLS RULE, 40 CFR PART 763, SUBPART E. GAUDIORACADEMY FAILED TO HAVE AN ASBESTOS MANAGEMENT PLAN IN PLACE. THE SCHOOL HAS NOW SPENT AT LEAST $6,000 TO HAVE A CONTRACTOR CREATE SUCH A PLAN. THE STATUTE REQUIRES THAT THE PENALTY BE OFFSET BY THE AMOUNT SPENT TO COMPLY. SINCE EPA WAS SEEKING $2460 IN CIVIL PENALTY, THE CAFO INDICATES THAT THE $6,000 WAS SPENT AND THAT GAUDIOR ACADEMY IS NOT REQUIRED TO PAY A CIVIL PENALTY. THIS CASE IS NOW CONCLUDED AND CLOSED.
