Target Corporation Settles for $221,850.00
In November 2019, the California Air Resources Board and Target Corporation, of Minneapolis, Minnesota, reached a settlement agreement in the amount of $221,850.00. Target Corporation sold, supplied, and offered for sale Automotive Windshield Washer Fluid products for use in California containing concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOC) that exceeded the standards specified in title 17, California Code of Regulations (17CCR), section 94509(a). The VOC violation resulted in 4.93 tons of excess VOC emissions. To ensure future compliance, Target Corporation has significantly enhanced their inventory control system including modifications that specifically address the regulatory requirements for the sale of windshield wash fluids in California.
