6 Environmental Justice Environmental Justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. EPA has this goal for all communities and persons across this Nation. It will be achieved when everyone enjoys the same degree of protection from environmental and health hazards and equal access to the decision-making process to have a healthy environment in which to live, learn, and work.
7 Environmental Justice Environmental Justice in Rulemaking Guidance Released New guidance for considering environmental justice in EPA's rulemaking process has been released.
8 Commitment to Community Engagement

15 Mineral Processing National Enforcement Initiative Primary focus: phosphoric acid producers 18 operating facilities nationwide (cumulative 50 billion gallons of wastewater stored in land-based impoundments: ph ~1.5, high Cd, Cr, As, Rad) 11 of the 18 facilities are located in R4 (~60% of sector)
16 CF Industries CF Industries in operation since 1962 CF has one phosphoric acid facility and 10% of U.S. fertilizer market Located in an environmental justice community 20 miles east of Tampa, Florida 308 acre gypsum stack, 93 acre cooling pond system, 800 million gallons corrosive wastewater
17 Precedent-Setting Settlement Settlement initiated in 2005 through Dept of Justice with FDEP as co-plaintiff Consent Decree Effective on September 28, 2010 Civil Penalty: $701,000 Sets industry-wide standards for: Financial assurance for closure (guaranteed $164.5 million) Site-wide groundwater monitoring Better operation/control of gypsum stacks and cooling ponds (e.g. annual assessment of water release risk, continuous improvement of water balance, install synthetic liners, etc) Closure of stacks and ponds with post-closure care for 50 years
18 Precedent-Setting Settlement Largest RCRA direct environmental benefits nationally for FY 2010 Largest RCRA direct environmental benefits since R4 began tracking: Re-engineered air pollution scrubbers to cease discharge of corrosive wastewater (annual elimination of 9.8 billion pounds of hazardous waste) Constructing a wastewater treatment system to neutralize cleaning wastes/spills (5.8 million pounds hazardous waste treated annually) Implementing BMP to track leaks/spills Install synthetic liners under chemical plants to prevent groundwater contamination
