City of Tacoma, Civ. A. No. 3:10–cv–05497, was lodged with the United States Court for the Western District of Washington in Tacoma. In this action, the United States sought penalties pursuant to Section 608(c) of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7671g, against the City of Tacoma’s Public Works Department. The Complaint alleges that Defendant failed to comply with regulations issued pursuant to Section 608(c) of the CAA— 40 CFR Part 82, Subpart F—that makes the knowing venting or release of Class I or II refrigerants into the environment during the disposal of a refrigerantcontaining appliance unlawful. The Complaint alleges the City of Tacoma, through its Solid Waste Management Division that is internal to the Public Works Department, illegally released regulated refrigerant into the environment for almost three years dating from October 2004 to August 2007 at its municipal landfill. Pursuant to the proposed Consent Decree, Defendant will pay to the United States a civil penalty of $224,684 and perform a Supplemental Environmental Project that will cost approximately $269,783. The SEP consists of the City purchasing a hydraulic launch assist refuse collection vehicle, purchasing a pluggable hybrid electric terminal truck to replace one of the City’s diesel yard tractors, and retrofitting 10 of its municipal diesel vehicles with diesel particulate filters. The hydraulic launch assist refuse collection vehicle is designed to be more efficient by using energy created during braking as well as increase fuel economy and reduce particulate emissions typically emitted from traditional refuse collection vehicles. The pluggable hybrid electric terminal truck is designed to decrease diesel fuel use and reduce emissions as well as increase the City’s fuel economy. The diesel particulate filters are aimed to reduce particulate matter emissions as well as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons emissions. Overall, these projects are intended to help improve air quality in and around the City’s municipal landfill by reducing smogforming chemicals such as ground level ozone, particulates, and nitrous oxides (as well as carbon dioxide).

    In this action, the United States sought penalties pursuant to 
Section 608(c) of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7671g, against the City

Complaint alleges the City of Tacoma, through its Solid Waste 
Management Division that is internal to the Public Works Department, 
illegally released regulated refrigerant into the environment for 
almost three years dating from October 2004 to August 2007 at its 
municipal landfill.
    Pursuant to the proposed Consent Decree, Defendant will pay to the 
United States a civil penalty of $224,684 and perform a Supplemental 
Environmental Project that will cost approximately $269,783. The SEP 
consists of the City purchasing a hydraulic launch assist refuse
