A New Jersey-based company has been ordered to pay $1 million in penalties for violating the Clean Water Act (CWA). The company, which was not named in the article from WTNH.com, was found to have committed numerous violations related to water pollution.
The violations included discharging pollutants into a nearby river without the proper permits and failing to properly manage stormwater runoff from its facility. The company was also found to have failed to maintain adequate records and monitoring programs to ensure compliance with the CWA.
The penalty of $1 million was the result of a settlement reached between the company and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). As part of the settlement, the company has agreed to implement a number of measures to bring its operations into compliance with the CWA.
The EPA praised the settlement as a significant step towards protecting the health and safety of local waterways and communities. The agency emphasized the importance of businesses complying with environmental regulations to prevent pollution and safeguard the environment.
