Fort Hood fined for mishandling hazardous motor pool waste

My question is where is the environmental guy, every post has a civilian position for environmental compliance who should be doing regular inspections of post facilities.

SSG (Join to see) it sounds like that guy or his boss got a bad interpretation of the environmental law and propagated that standard to Ft Hood. Fort Hood’s environmental office is likely about 10 people.

LTC Jason Mackay - Could be but I am the environmental guy for a corporation, and you are supposed to take RCRA class 16 hours every year and DOT 16 hours every 3 years to ship hazmat. But to get a million dollar fine right off the bat they must have been doing something really bad for a really long time. The max fine is about 76 thousand per day and that is for hazmat not universal waste. Some body should lose their job over this.

SSG (Join to see) not arguing that...bad for a while after being told to fix it by a regulator and didn’t.

This is at the feet of whoever sets the installation standard and the enviro SOP
