YUMA, Colo.—Federal regulators say Yuma Ethanol LLC has agreed to pay $5,850 to settle allegations of violating risk-management rules under the Clean Air Act.
The rules require companies to have risk management plans if they are storing more than 10,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia and natural gasoline.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says Yuma Ethanol had about 97,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia during an inspection in October.
The plant’s general manager didn’t immediately return a phone message Monday. The EPA says that in agreeing to settle, the company has certified its plant in Yuma is now in compliance with the risk-management regulations.
