Kentucky environmental attorney Sanders says EPA Region 5 settles with G&S Titanium over RCRA violations at Wooster facility.

U.S. EPA Region 5 settled with G & S Titanium Inc., Wooster, Ohio, for alleged violations of the authorized Ohio Resource Conservation and Recovery Act requirement for treatment, storage and disposal facilities. A $33,600 penalty has been set. 

According to the agency, the company failed to have a storage permit, conduct daily inspections of and keep records on its hazardous waste tank, provide annual employee training and keep records about it and maintain written job descriptions.

G & S, a titanium manufacturer, generates hazardous waste acid and chromium sludge.
