Inspections, violations and enforcement

EPA’s single-event violation file, as loaded, holds no violation for NPDES NDDW0004I.

Velarion’s copy of EPA’s ICIS-NPDES files does not include the inspections, formal enforcement actions and informal enforcement actions files, so this page shows none of them. EPA’s free Detailed Facility Report on ECHO lists this permit’s inspections, enforcement actions and penalties.
