EPA v. Ancilla College
Case summary
Ancilla College failed to keep records documenting refrigerant additions during servicing of one appliance of 50 pounds or more. The time period of violation was three years. The cost to set up a proper record keeping system was $50.00. Appendix 10 of EPA's Clean Air Act Civil Penalty Policy, pertaining to CFC violations, was used to calculate the penalty. The economic benefit in this case was substantially under $500 so it was waived. Ancilla College disclosed its violation and met EPA's self-disclosure requirements and so the gravity component of the penalty was also waived.
