EPA v. ALASKA HOUSE OF YAMAHA (APO) (SDWA UIC)

Case summary

On September 30, 2025, Region 10 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order resolving alleged violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act by JSA Motorsports LLC dba Alaska House of Yamaha, located in Big Lake, Alaska. Respondent owns and operates an automotive repair shop 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 the injection well. 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 2000. JSA has agreed to permanently close the injection well and to pay a penalty of $40,000. Closure of MVWDWs protects drinking water from potential motor vehicle contaminants.
