EPA v. EVERTS AIR FUEL

Final Order With Penalty

Case summary

On August 20, 20120, Region 10 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order resolving alleged violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act by Everts, located in Fairbanks, Alaska. Respondent owns and operates two automotive repair shops in which Respondent conducts repair on motor vehicles. Respondent is alleged to be in violation of the regulations protecting underground (groundwater) sources of drinking water from injection wells. Injection well activity can allow movement of fluid containing contaminants (such as wastewater from vehicle repair) into underground sources of drinking water. Motor Vehicle Waste Disposal Wells (MVWDWs) were banned in Alaska in August 2005. Everts has agreed to permanently close the injection wells and to pay a penalty of $45,000. Closure of the MVWDWs protects drinking water from potential motor vehicle contaminants.
