Solutia, Inc. and INEOS Melamines, LLC, Civil Action No. 3:12–cv–12377–KPN. In its Complaint, the United States alleged that the Defendant’s actions at their chemical manufacturing plant violated the Clean Air Act, and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Clean Air Act. The alleged violations occurred at the Defendants’ Indian Orchard Plant in Springfield, Massachusetts. The United States alleges in its Complaint that Defendants violated: (A) Sections 112 and 502 of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7412 and 7661a, and implementing regulations; (B) the Final Reasonably Available Control Technology Compliance Plan Conditional Approval issued by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (‘‘Massachusetts DEP’’) on June 20, 1989 which contains requirements on the operation of the Plant; and (C) the Air Quality Operating Permit issued to Solutia Inc. on June 26, 2005 by the Massachusetts DEP pursuant to Title V of the Clean Air Act and 310 C.M.R. 7.00: Appendix C which also contains requirements on the operation of the Plant.

In addition, under the terms of the Consent Decree, the Defendants will implement an enhanced leak detection and repair system to control and manage the air pollutants emitted at the facility. As part of this leak detection and repair system, the Defendants will undertake efforts above and beyond what is currently required by the Clean Air Act and the regulations that the United States alleged were violated at the Plant. Pursuant to the proposed Consent Decree, the Defendants will conduct more frequent monitoring for possible equipment leaks, use lower thresholds for the repairs of leaks, replace leaking equipment more quickly with improved equipment, and conduct third-party audits of its leak detection and repair program. The proposed Consent Decree resolves both Solutia Inc.’s liability, and INEOS Melamines, LLC’s liability for all of the violations of the Clean Air Act E:\FR\FM\08JAN1.SGM 08JAN1
