Settlement Stems from an October 2012 Inspection of Bozzuto’s Handling of Anhydrous Ammonia
BOSTON — Under a settlement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Bozzuto’s Inc., which operates a cold storage warehouse in North Haven, Connecticut, is updating its operations so that public safety is enhanced. The company has also agreed to pay $124,181 to settle claims it violated the federal Clean Air Act’s chemical release prevention requirements.
The settlement stems from an October 2012 inspection of Bozzuto’s handling of anhydrous ammonia and adherence to the risk management plan (RMP) regulations of the Clean Air Act.
