Abstract |
Colorados continues to implement effective enforcement programs and improvementshave been made since the previous years review. The State has a strong compliance monitoring presence and has generally met orexceeded its inspection commitments in all areas except for stormwater inspections. Enforcement actions are generally appropriate, however, in the Air and NPDES programs, many of the formal actions reviewed were not taken in a timely manner. EPA and Colorado are working to improve the process used to identify and report toRCRAInfo significant non-compliers (SNCs) in the RCRA enforcement program. This will be an area of focus with all Region 8 RCRA programs during FY05. Information sources included in the review are described in detail in the program-specific portions of this report and include information from the national databases, Performance Partnership Agreement, inspection plans, End of Year Reports, national guidance and, information contained in State enforcement files. |
