Violation Tracker Individual Record
Coltec Industries Inc. and National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO) agreed to pay a civil penalty of $280,000 and spend approximately $500,000 on an environmental project to resolve alleged violations of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and EPA's marine diesel engine air rules, the Department of Justice and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced. The project will significantly reduce nitrogen oxide emissions from a testing stack at Coltec's Beloit, Wis., engine manufacturing facility, improving air quality for residents. Coltec and NASSCO also agreed to attach the required EPA engine labels to 40 ship engines that were previously unlabeled or improperly labeled. (The Justice Department did not indicate how the payments would be divided between the two companies. Here the total is split equally.)
