EPA v. SeaCast, Inc.

Case summary

On August 24, 2017, Region 10 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) with SeaCast, Inc. to address Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) violations at its facility in Marysville, Washington, located within the boundaries of the Tulalip Indian reservation. The company stored hazardous wastes at the facility without obtaining a permit or complying with conditions applicable to hazardous waste generators. Among the violated conditions, SeaCast failed to conduct weekly inspections of hazardous waste storage areas, failed to properly manage aerosol cans previous to recycling, and personnel failed to complete annual hazardous waste training. The company also failed to properly develop an adequate contingency plan. As a result of this action, SeaCast agreed to perform weekly hazardous waste inspections, improve management of aerosol cans, update and implement a revised hazardous waste training plan, and correct their contingency plan. SeaCast also agreed to conduct internal audits of their environmental program. Under the terms of the agreement, SeaCast agreed to pay a penalty of $15,790.
