PCB 80—111

CATERPILLAR TRACTOR COMPANY,

Respondent.

CONCURRING OPINION (by J.

Anderson):

I do feel

it is an unwise precedent to fail

to impose even

a small penalty for these violations, especially when an admitted

violation results

from failure to timely control unauthorized

disposals.

The purposes of the Act would have been better

served by imposition of at least a nominal penalty, although

Caterpillar’s past record of corporate response provides assurance

that it will fully comply with this Order.

Therefore,

I concur.
