EPA v. OMNI SOURCE CORPORATION

Case summary

On March 25, 2008, a self disclosure was made for this facility. The violation reported was failure to obtain a permit for the shredder due to VOC emissions being higher than previously reported. After conducting testing and an an engineering assessment, the source determined that a permit was needed for this facility; however, the permit did not require controls but management practices to remove volatile hazardous air pollutant (VHAP) containing liquids from the metal scrap materials prior to shedding (or to document that inspections have been performed to confirm the non-existence of VOC and VHAP containing fluids). The Indiana Department of Environmental Management issued the permit on 11/30/12.
