along with
associated pollution control equipment.
Respondent historically
employed lubricants containing VOM in the course of these operations.
VII.
EXPLANATION OF PAST FAILURES
TO COMPLY
1.
Respondent submitted
a
permit application to the Illinois
EPA on or about December
23,
1997.
The permit application identified
emission sources and air pollution control equipment that were
constructed without authorization.
2.

FUTURE PLANS OF COMPLIANCE
5
Werner shall comply with all requirements
of the Act,
415
ILCS
5/1
et seq.
(2002),
and the Illinois Pollution Control Board
Regulations,
35
Ill. Adm. Code Subtitles A through H.
IX.
IMPACT ON THE PUBLIC RESULTING FROM ALLEGED NON-COMPLIANCE
Section 33 (c)
of the Act,
415
ILCS 5/33 (c)
(2002)
,
provides
as
follows:
In making its orders and determinations,
the
Board shall take
into consideration
all
the
facts
and
circumstances
bearing
upon
the
reasonableness of the emissions,
discharges,
or
deposits
involved
including,
but
not
limited
to:
1.
the character and degree of injury to,
or interference with the protection of
the
health,
general
welfare
and
physical property of the people;
2.
the
social
and
economic
value
of
the
pollution source;
3.
the suitability or unsuitability of the
pollution
source
to
the area
in which
it
is located,
including the questions
of
priority
of
location
in
the
area
involved;
4.
the,
technical
practicability
and
economic reasonableness
of reducing or
eliminating
the
emissions,
discharges
or
deposits
resulting
from
such
pollution source;
and
5.
any subsequent
compliance.
In response
to these
factors,
the parties
state as follows:
1.
‘
The impact to the public resulting from Werner’s
noncompliance was that the Illinois EPA and the public were
not privy
to information that is important to
the control
of air pollution in
6
Illinois.
The permit process
is the only method available
for the
State to identify possible air pollution
sources and their control and
to ensure that those sources will not contribute
to or cause
the
deterioration of air quality in Illinois.
Werner also failed to
comply with emission control requirements for its punch presses and
rail piercing operations.
2.
The Parties agree that the Respondent’s facility has social
and economic value.
3.
The Parties agree
that
the Respondent’s facility is suitable
to the area in which
it
is located.
4.
The Parties agree that
the reduction of emissions from the
facility required by the applicable regulations was both technically
practicable and economically reasonable.
5.
The Parties agree that the Respondent has achieved
compliance with the regulatory requirements
cited in the Complaint.
X.
CONSIDERATION OF SECTION 42(h)
FACTORS
Section 42(h)
of the Aát,
415 ILCS
5/42(h) (2002), provides
as
follows:
In determining the appropriate civil penalty
to be imposed under subdivisions
(a),
(b) (1),
(b) (3),
or
(b)
(5)
of this Section,
the Board
is
authOrized
to
consider
any
matters
of
record
in
mitigation
or
aggravation
of
penalty,
including
but
not
limited
to
the
following factors:
1.
the
‘duration
and
gravity
of
the
violation;
2.
the
presence
or
absence
of
due
7
diligence on the part of the respondent
in
attempting
to
comply
with
the
requirements
of
this
Act
and
regulations
thereunder
or
to
secure
relief
therefrom
as provided
by
this
Act;
3.
any
economic benefits
accrued
by
the
respondent
because
of
delay
in
compliance with requirements;
4.
the
amount
of monetary penalty which
will serve to deter further violations
by the respondent and to otherwise aid
in
enhancing voluntary compliance with
this Act
by
the
respondent
and other
persons similarly subject
to the Act;
and
5.
the
number,
proximity
in
time,
and
gravity
of
previously
adjudicated
violations
of
this
Act
by
the
respondent.
6.
whether
the
respondent voluntarily
self-disclosed,
in
accordance
with
subsection
(i)
of
this
Section,
the
non-compliance to the Agency;
7.
whether
the
respondent
has
agreed
to
undertake a “supplemental environmental
project,”
which
means
an
environmentally beneficial project that
a
respondent
agrees
to
undertake
in
settlement
of
an
enforcement
action
brought under this Act,
but which the
respondent
is
not
otherwise
legally
required to perform.
In response to these factors,
the parties state
as follows:
1.
The Complainant contends
that the violations that are
the
subject of the Complaint occurred over an approximately five-year
period,
from 1995 until 2000.
2.
The Complainant contends that the Respondent was not
diligent
in acquiring permit authorization to construct and operate
8
the emission sources and air pollution control equipment as alleged in
the Complaint and complying with applicable emission control
requirements.
Werner did subsequently respond to the issuance of a
Violation Notice and Notice of Intent to Pursue Legal Action letter.
The Respondent notes that it acquired the necessary permits and
achieved the requisite 81
control for the VOM sources as of October
2,
2000.
3.
The Respondent did not accrue an appreciable measure of
economic benefit by operating emission sources without achieving the
required control.
4.
The parties believe that the civil penalty as set out in
Section XI will deter Werner from committing further violations,
and
will aid in enhancing voluntary compliance by Werner and others
similarly subject to the Act.
5.
The State
is not aware
of any other adjudicated violations
of the Act by Werner.
6.
Respondent did not self-disclose the noncompliance pursuant.
to the requirements
of Section 42(h) (6)
of the Act,
415 ILCS
5/42(h) (6) (2002)
7.
Respondent has performed a Supplemental Environmental
Project and the Complainant has mitigated its penalty demand
accordingly,
as further detailed in Section XI.
XI.

Proposal for Settlement and complying with its terms,
the Respondent
does not affirmatively admit the allegations of violation within the
Complaint,
and this Stipulation and Proposal for Settlement shall not
be interpreted as including such admission.
2.
a.
The Complainant believes a civil penalty in the amount

lack of due diligence,
deterrence impact
and the economic benefit of noncompliance.
b.
In order to promote the goals of the Act to restore,
protect and enhance the quality of the environment,
the Complainant
agrees to mitigate its civil penalty demand by approximately sixty-two
per cent
(62),
based on Respondent’s implementation
of. a Supplemental
Environmental Projects at its facility as set forth in this
Stipulation and Proposal for Settlement.
-
c.
Accordingly,
Respondent shall pay a civil penalty of
$32,000.00

5.
The
SEP implemented by the Respondent consists of the
conversion of an open bath pultrusion machine to
a pre-form resin
injection machine.
Capital cost of the SEP was approximately
$139,000.00.
Werner began implementation of the SEP in 2001.
The
SEP
resulted in the following environmental benefits:
a.
A reduction in air emissions
of approximately 3,500
pounds
(i.e.,
1.75
tons)
of styrene per year.
Styrene is both a
volatile organic material and a hazardous air pollutant.
-
This
emission reduction
is based on current production levels and may
increase to
as much
‘as
5,400 pounds
(2.7
tons)
per year as production
increases.
-
b.
An overall reduction in ambient air concentrations
of’
styrene in the workplace attributed to the reduced volume of resin
used and smaller resin surface area
that comes into contact with the
air.
‘6.
No VOM emission reductions associated with the
SEP shall be
used to demonstrate, compliance with the Emission Reduction Market
System
(“ERMS”)
or otherwise made available
for sale,
trade or banking
in the ERMS.
12
7.
Respondent
shall at all times’operate and maintain all
equipment
and systems relating to the SEP
so as to ensure that the
resulting VOM emission reductions
are permanent and continuous.
In
the event that the Respondent determines that the SEP or its
associated equipment or systems must be altered, modified or replaced,
the Respondent shall. ensure that the alterations, modifications or
replacements result in equal or greater emission reductions than those
obtained from the approved SEP pursuant to this Stipulation and
Proposal for Settlement.
The Respondent shall provide written notice
to the Illinois EPA at least
30 days prior to the start of
construction of any alteration, modification or replacement.
The
notice shall include a detailed explanation of the planned
alterations,
modifications or replacements and a demonstration ‘of
associated emissions reductions.
8.
Respondent certifies,
by signature to this Stipulation and
Proposal
for Settlement,
that
it has not, and will not ever,
sell
emission offsets or accept any kind of emissions credit under the New
Source Review programs
(i.e.,
the Prevention of Significant
Deterioration program of 40 C.F.R.
§52.21 and the Illinois Pollution
Control Board’s non—attainment area program at 35
Ill. Adm.
Code Part
203)
that relate to or derive from the emissions reductions achieved
by the implementation of the above-referenced SEP.
9.
Any
public statement,
oral or written, made by or on behalf
of Respondent,
concerning any SEP required by this, Stipulation and
Proposal for Settlement,
shall
include the following language:
“This
‘project was undertaken in connection with the settlement of
13
enforcement actions initiated by the State of Illinois.”
10.

agreement, grant or as injunctive relief in any other
case.
Respondent further certifies that it has not received, and is not
presently negotiating to receive credit,
penalty offset, or other
benefit in any other enforcement action for any actions required by
this Stipulation and Proposal for Settlement.
11.
Werner shall cease and desist from future violations of the
Act,
415 ILCS 5/1
et seq.
(2002), and the Board Regulations,
35
Ill.
Adm.
Code Subtitles A through H,
including, but not limited to,
those sections
of the Act and Doard Regulations
that were the
subject matter of the Complaint as outlined in Section V. of this
Stipulation and Proposal, for Settlement.
XII.
.
COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER LAWS
AND
REGULATIONS

the Respondent’s responsibility to comply with any federal,
state
o,r
local laws and regulations.

the Illinois EPA,
its
employees and representatives, and the Attorney General, her agents
and representatives,
shall have the right of entry into and upon the
Respondent’s facility which is the subject of this Consent Order,
