BOISE—The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is seeking public comment on a proposed settlement action and consent order with CM Company, Inc. for violations of the 2022 general permit for discharges from construction activities.
CM Company obtained coverage under Permit IDR10C01G as an operator at Union 93 in Meridian, Idaho. DEQ alleges the company failed to comply with all applicable conditions of the permit. DEQ prepared an expedited settlement agreement and consent order directing CM Company to resolve the violations and either pay a civil penalty or request a compliance conference. CM Company made payment in full for the civil penalty of $3,470 and signed the consent order.
The consent order is available for review at DEQ’s State Office (1410 N. Hilton Street, Boise, Idaho) and on DEQ’s Public Comment Opportunities page. Written comments will be accepted through May 10, 2023, at 5 p.m. MDT. Submit comments electronically on DEQ’s website or by mail or email:
