Proposed Settlement Agreement, Clean Air Act Title V Permit Appeal

In accordance with section 113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as amended (``CAA'' or the ``Act''), notice is hereby given of a proposed settlement agreement to resolve a case filed by Veolia ES Technical Solutions, L.L.C. (``Veolia'') involving EPA actions under the CAA Title V operating permit program. On February, 15, 2017, Veolia filed a petition with the Environmental Appeals Board (``EAB'') challenging the CAA Title V renewal permit issued by EPA Region 5 for the Veolia facility in Sauget, Illinois (``the Facility'') on January 18, 2017. (In re Veolia ES Technical Solutions, L.L.C., CAA Appeal No. 17-02). Under the proposed settlement agreement, among other changes to the permit, Veolia agrees to install activated carbon injection systems (``ACI systems'') on two incinerators that currently do not have controls for vapor phase mercury and EPA Region 5 will request a remand of the CAA Title V renewal permit.
