EPA v. Hart and Cooley
Final Order No Penalty
Case summary
This is an Administrative Penalty action pursuant to Section 325(c) of Title II of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (EPCRA) issued in resolution of a Self-Audit/Self-Disclosure received from Hart & Cooley, Inc. The violation involves a failure to submit timely a Form R report for decabromodiphenyl oxide processed at the facility in 2000. Because the Respondent's self-disclosure of these violations meets the criteria of EPA's Audit Policy, the penalty that would have been due has been reduced to zero dollars (100% mitigation).
