Case summary

Region 10 has issued an enforcement action (CAFO) for United States Army Garrison Fort Wainwright (Alaska) for violations of Subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).

The violations are based on an August 2021 inspection of US Army Garrison Fort Wainwright and include 1) failure to make a hazardous waste determination, 2) storage without a permit or interim status, 3) failure to properly manage pharmaceutical waste, 4) failure to properly manage universal waste, 5) failure to properly manage used oil. The Army will pay a penalty of $233,300. Contacts: Tierra Robinson and Logan Senack, OECA/FFEO working for Region 10 on this case.​
