EPA v. Porter Construction (TXU010382)

Case summary

Porter Construction, Amarillo, TX (TXU010382): A storm water compliance inspection was conducted by EPA at the site of the Pak A Sak in Amarillo, TX, on February 5, 2004. Porter Construction was the general contractor for the project and met the definition of �operator� as defined by the Texas Storm Water General Construction Permit. Violations cited were failure to develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). Because the Texas Storm Water General Construction Permit specifically states an operator is automatically covered under the permit if a SWPPP is developed, Porter Construction was also cited for not having permit coverage because there was no SWPPP. The site met the criteria for the Expedited Settlement Offer, which has been drafted. Contact: Diana McDonald (6EN-WC), 214-665-7495
