The city of Eugene recently sent Cascade Plating & Machine a “request for corrective action” letter requesting stabilization of a sizable area at the facility on Cross Street, just off Roosevelt Boulevard. The letter followed a site inspection by the city during which the city noted significant sediment accumulation, with the potential for off-site tracking, as well as “potential track-out of metal chips and turnings.” The city characterized the violations as significant, and requested corrective action within 30 days in order to avoid referral to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for formal enforcement.
