EPA v. DAVID BOREN, LUKE LARSEN CONSTRUCTION & STANELY CONSTRUCTION

Case summary

Region 10 Settles with Larsen Construction, LLC and Stanley Construction for CWA Violations (Stanley, ID) EPA Region 10 filed an expedited settlement agreement resolving violations of the Construction General Permit (CGP) and Clean Water Act by Larsen Construction, LLC and Stanley Construction (?Respondents?), at the Boren Cabin construction site located in Stanley, Idaho. Stanley Construction operated without coverage under the CGP. Larsen Construction did not have a complete and updated Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, failed to conduct site inspections, and failed to install and maintain Best Management Practices (BMPs) including concrete washout areas, straw wattles, and dewatering control measures. Inadequate planning, monitoring and controls substantially increase the risk of discharges from the property to Goat Creek. Respondents have paid the assessed penalty of $14,360.
