23 Jun 2026 Denka Performance Elastomer, LLCDenka Performance Elastomer: USD 996,703 over hazardous waste at neoprene plant €874,915
The EPA (Region 6) issued a Consent Agreement and Final Order against Denka Performance Elastomer over RCRA violations at its neoprene plant in LaPlace (Louisiana): missing waste determinations, breaches of land disposal restrictions and treatment and storage of hazardous waste without a permit. Denka will pay 996,703.35 USD and must clean out a brine pit and its ancillary equipment; if the currently idle plant resumes operations, further requirements apply, including on waste inventory, containers, training and protective equipment. The authority allegedly made the findings set out here; this account is not based on a final judgment.
Every waste stream needs a documented determination of whether it is hazardous – without it there is no basis for lawful storage, treatment and disposal.
Classification and storage of hazardous waste
Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
